"Miss..." Yu Shu looked worried.

Ye Yunzi clenched her teeth and the tip of the pen fell with trembling hands.

After writing, he folded the letter carefully, handed it to Yu Shu, and asked her to find someone to deliver it immediately.

After finishing all this, Ye Yunzi felt as if all her strength was drained away. She fell onto the bed and soon fell into a deep sleep.

That night, there was no peace in Zijinyuan.

The lady went to the ancestral hall to take the punishment for her young lady. However, in the middle of the night, her weak body could not withstand the cold wind and she fainted in the hall.

Nanny Zhao was so anxious that she quickly called a doctor. The lights in the Zijin Courtyard were on and all the maids had worried looks on their faces.

"Madam, you have to hold on. If you collapse, Zijin Court will lose its backbone..." Madam Zhao had a sad face. The young lady had not recovered yet after falling into the water, and the madam's old illness relapsed in the ancestral hall and she was in a coma.

Thanks to the maid Zhilan who was worried and went to check on the lady, otherwise if something really happened to the lady, there would be no one who would know about it.

"lady……"

Su closed his eyes tightly, his face was pale, and he did not move.

After the doctor examined her, he only said that my wife’s constitution was weak and she couldn’t stand the cold wind. She needed to take good care of herself in the future and must not catch a cold again. She also had to avoid emotional excitement, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Nanny Zhao looked at the Madam with pity, and felt that the master was more and more hard-hearted. He knew that the Madam was in poor health, but still made her go to the ancestral hall to suffer.

At the door, Zhilan made sure that the lady was sleeping soundly, then quietly returned to Ye Yunzi's room.

On the other side, in Wenmayuan.

The news of Su's illness spread quickly in the Ye Mansion, and the well-informed Third Aunt naturally received the news first.

"Mom, it makes us happy! That girl Ye Yunzi is finally in our hands..." There was a bone-chilling chill in Ye Ziru's smile.

The third aunt also curled up a faint smile and took a sip of tea.

"If this happens, Zijinyuan will never be able to recover."

"mother……"

Ye Ziru walked closer, put her hand on Third Aunt's shoulder, and said, "But falling into the water is too risky. If something goes wrong, what will happen to the little brother in your belly..."

Ye Ziru knew that the reason why the Third Aunt was favored now was because she was pregnant with a boy. The reason why everyone in the Ye family was so polite to her was also because of this. If something happened to the child, who knows what kind of trouble would happen.

It would not be wise to sacrifice the child in order to deal with Ye Yunzi.

The third aunt gently put down the teacup and her hand unconsciously stroked her belly. When she mentioned the child, her eyes flashed with complex light.

"If the child is gone, maybe it's not a bad thing..." Her eyes pierced through the air in front of her, revealing a hint of coldness, "In this way, Ye Yunzi will never be able to turn over, and you will naturally become the eldest daughter of the Ye family."

"mother……"

Ye Ziru quickly shook her head, her face full of determination, "I don't want to let my brother get hurt! He will be a great help to help me manage the Ye Mansion in the future!"

"Yes." The Third Aunt chuckled and shook her head slightly, "The good days of Zijinyuan are over."

"That frail woman of the Su family can be knocked down by the slightest wind. It seems she won't live long. Now that she's gone, won't Ye Yunzi be at our mercy?" She raised her eyebrows and said this in a relaxed tone.

Upon hearing this, Ye Ziru's eyes flashed with coldness, "That's right, once Su is gone, the entire backyard of the Ye Mansion will be ours!"

This idea took root in her heart and gradually became dark and vicious.

As long as the Su family is gone... everything will be easy.

If only she could... sooner.

……

And Shen Siyan, who was far away in Lincheng, stood in front of his mother's grave, the wind blowing across his furrowed brows.

He held tightly in his hand a yellowed piece of paper, on which were written words written in blood, revealing a shocking secret.

Mother Shen did not die by self-immolation, but was secretly poisoned by her personal maid at the time, causing her to die in the sea of ​​fire.

"Mother..." Shen Siyan called in a low voice, with an indescribable sadness in his voice, "You have been kind and compassionate all your life, but you have suffered such a cruel death. I will definitely avenge you."

Shen Siyan ordered: "Come here, go and bring my mother's personal maid."

Soon, a woman in plain clothes was brought to Shen Siyan. She was frail and pretty, but there was a hint of panic in her eyes.

Shen Siyan said coldly: "Why do you want to harm my mother?"

The woman trembled slightly when she heard this. She lowered her head and said in a trembling voice: "I... I didn't mean that, sir, I..."

Shen Siyan didn't give her a chance to explain: "No need to say more, the truth will come out."

He waved his hand and had the woman taken away for interrogation.

Shen Siyan turned around and looked at Shen's mother's grave again. The person behind the scenes would definitely dig it out.

The next day, after a night's rest, Ye Yunzi woke up feeling much more relaxed. Yu Shu brought her some light porridge, which she drank without leaving a single spoonful, and then drank a bowl of bitter medicine.

The whole room was filled with a strong smell of medicine.

Ye Yunzi never liked this bitterness. She was weak in her previous life. After marrying Shen Yuming, she had to take medicine every day just to take care of her body.

Mrs. Shen always said that her constitution was too weak and she couldn't even get pregnant.

He also blamed her for being blind and unable to do even simple things, and said that marrying her would be a burden.

She swallowed all these hardships silently and hid all the pain in her heart, but she didn't expect...

Ye Yunzi's thoughts drifted away, and her hands holding the medicine bowl began to tremble.

Seeing this, Yu Shu hurriedly said with concern: "Miss, let this servant collect the bowls."

"Yeah." Ye Yunzi responded and let Yu Shu take the bowl.

Ye Yunzi came back to her senses, handed the empty bowl to Yu Shu, took a deep breath, and decided not to dwell on the bitterness of the past.

The key now is how to turn the current unfavorable situation around.

Just as Yu Shu went out with the bowl, Zhilan came in.

Ye Yunzi looked up at her and said approvingly, "Well done."

She had heard that Su had fallen ill in the middle of the night, but she was not too surprised. Instead, she was surprisingly calm.

In the past, she might have panicked and been at a loss, but this time... this is exactly what she instructed Zhilan to do.

In order to prevent Su from suffering from the cold in the ancestral hall, Zhilan used some tricks to make Su faint "at the right time".

The wind in the ancestral hall is freezing cold at night. It would be terrible if one gets sick from kneeling there.

"If I ask my mother to pretend to be sick, she will definitely not do it. She has lived a life of integrity and is even more stubborn than I thought... She will definitely keep kneeling until my father finds out the truth."

Ye Yunzi shook her head. Ye Chongde had already determined that she was the one who pushed the Third Aunt into trouble. How could he re-examine the case just because Su knelt in the ancestral hall? Everything was in vain.

Zhilan sighed slightly and agreed, "Miss is right."

So she followed Ye Yunzi's plan, sneaked into the ancestral hall in the dead of night, and cleverly used silver needles to stimulate Su's acupuncture points, causing her to fall into a "natural" coma.

Then, it was announced to the public that Su had caught a cold and was weak, so he fainted at night. This was the source of the turmoil in the second half of the night.

"When will mother wake up?"

"According to the time, the effect of the silver needle should have worn off, and she should have woken up."

"Okay, then I'll go see mom."

Ye Yunzi stood up, had someone put on her coat, and walked towards Su's room. Although her steps were still a little unsteady, they were much better than the previous few days. When Aunt Zhao saw Ye Yunzi coming, she hurried forward to support her: "Miss, why are you here?"

"I came to see my mother..."

"Madam has woken up, but she seems to have no memory of what happened last night." Nanny Zhao's eyes were full of worry, and she was more worried about Su's health.

"Miss, you should also rest more. The master is not a bad person. He will definitely find out the truth about that matter!"

Although Nanny Zhao's words were meant to comfort everyone, everyone knew that the matter had been settled.

She felt unfair for the young lady. With her character, she would never do anything to drag others into trouble. Even if she was dissatisfied with the Third Aunt, she would not take such measures.
