"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Nannan found that Ye Ziyu was crying.

"It's okay~ I just thought of something. Come on and eat. Mother-in-law, I'm full. I'm going out for some fresh air."

Lixia followed Ye Ziyu out, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Lixia, I want to be alone for a while. Yifeng can call me when he comes back." Ye Ziyu returned to Nannan's room.

"Wow, wow, grandma, wow, I miss you." Ye Ziyu couldn't hold it back any longer and squatted down, holding her head and crying.

Yifeng came back after a while, "Lixia, I'm back, and I brought a carriage with me. Where's the lady? Eh? Who's crying?"

"You unload the things first. Put the winter food in the kitchen and the quilt in grandma's room. Give me the food you brought for Nannan first and I'll take it."

"Oh, okay." Yifeng started to unload the things, and Lixia took the food box to her mother-in-law's room.

"Kid, what is this?"

"Mother-in-law, this is what my sister prepared for you. We also bought some food to last through the winter. I asked someone to move it to the kitchen. Two more quilts will be brought over later."

"That's unacceptable. How can I ask you for so many things?"

"Mother-in-law, these are all gifts from my sister. Come and eat them, my dear. These are hot delicacies in town. They are delicious."

"Wow, thank you sister. Awww, it's so delicious!!" Nannan's eyes lit up.

"It's delicious, eat slowly. Mother-in-law, we may have to bother you until the afternoon. I'll go prepare lunch."

"Oh, fine, you can stay as long as you want."

Ye Ziyu cried for a long time, and she was tired. Her eyes were sore and swollen. Lixia heard her crying stop outside the door and knocked on the door. "Miss, I got you a basin of water. You can wash. I also boiled two eggs. You can apply some pressure on your eyes later. That way you won't feel so bad."

"Well, thank you." Ye Ziyu couldn't help it again. Since she was a child, no one except her grandmother had been so kind to her. Would it be uncomfortable for her to care about her? 'Maybe God saw that I had lived too hard before, so he let me travel here to feel the care of others.'

"Mother-in-law, that sister is so great. She made so many delicious foods." Nannan walked in carrying the dishes.

"Weren't you unhappy that they came yesterday?" Mother-in-law scratched Nannan's nose.

"Hey, there are still dishes. I'll go serve them."

"Sister, you're here. That sister has made a lot of delicious food. You should go and get ready to eat." Nannan met Ye Ziyu when she ran out the door.

"Okay, run slower." Ye Ziyu said with a smile.

"Child, come and sit down. Are you feeling better?"

"Well, mother-in-law is fine. Here is some change. Take it. I am sorry for bothering you last night. This is my accommodation and food expenses."

"Silly child, we can't have these. You've already bought us a lot of things, and you haven't eaten anything good here, just ordinary food." The mother-in-law refused to take it and pushed it back to Ye Ziyu. At this time, Lixia and Nannan came in with the remaining dishes. "Lixia, come and sit down and eat together." Lixia put the dishes on the table and was about to leave, but Ye Ziyu held her back.

Lixia no longer refused, and Ye Ziyu and Lixia always called each other sisters in public.

"Where's Yifeng? Ask him to come and eat with us."

"That brother was chopping wood. He said he had eaten a lot and was not hungry." Nannan continued.

"Well, he said he couldn't help himself when he went shopping and ate a lot."

"Pfft, forget about him then, let's eat."

The mother-in-law kept picking food for Ye Ziyu, just like an old person in the family taking care of her granddaughter. She didn't eat much herself and only paid attention to the child.

Ye Ziyu felt that her mother-in-law was taking special care of her. She knew that she missed her family. Ye Ziyu did not refuse and served her mother-in-law some food. "Mother-in-law, you eat too." Then she ate the food that her mother-in-law served. Ye Ziyu was very full and happy during this meal.

After dinner, Lixia cleaned up the dishes and her daughter helped. Ye Ziyu stayed in the room and chatted with her mother-in-law. “Child, if you don’t mind, keep this. I sewed it when I was free.” It was a small purse with a simple design and rough material, but Ye Ziyu liked it very much. “Thank you, mother-in-law. I like it very much.” Ye Ziyu took it and held it tightly.

After chatting for a while, Lixia came in and said, "Sister, everything is done."

"Okay, mother-in-law, we won't bother you anymore and will go back first."

"Okay, be safe. Nannan will go and see the sisters off."

"it is good."

Ye Ziyu said to Nannan in front of the carriage at the door: "Nannan, I left something for Grandma in your room. Go and get it for Grandma after we leave. This bracelet is for you."

"Thank you, sister. Hope you have a safe journey home."

Ye Ziyu smiled, turned around and got on the carriage, and Lixia followed in. After Nannan watched the carriage go away, she closed the gate and returned to her room.

"Grandma, grandma, that sister left a lot of silver for us." Nannan ran to grandma's room with the silver.

"This child is such a good person. I hope she can be reunited with her family soon and live a peaceful and smooth life." The mother-in-law looked outside the house.

When Nannan's brother returned home in the evening, he found the yard full of chopped firewood and a lot of food in the kitchen. After finishing the dinner left in the kitchen, he returned to the room and found Nannan still awake. "Brother, brother, the sister who came to live with us yesterday was very nice. She bought us a lot of things, including quilts. We don't have to suffer from the cold and hunger this winter."

Brother: "They are such nice people. When we have the ability in the future, we should also help others." The brother touched Nannan's head.

"Yes, Nannan also wants to make a lot of money and help a lot of people!" Nannan nodded heavily.

"Miss!" Ye Ziyu heard Li Qiu's voice as soon as she got off the carriage. Li Qiu pulled Ye Ziyu to look around, "Fortunately, nothing serious happened. Those officials are really incompetent. They can't even find the people. If it weren't for Li Xia and Yi Feng, I don't know how many days Miss would have to suffer."

"I am very lucky, young lady. I have not suffered any hardship. I am sorry to have made you worried. Where is Mother Yang?"

"After learning about the young lady's disappearance, Madam Yang fell ill. Madam Yang wanted to come out to greet the young lady, but her body just couldn't stand for that long."

"Okay, I'll go see Mother Yang. You didn't get enough rest these two days. Look at your eyes, they're like panda eyes." Ye Ziyu pulled Li Qiu into the inn.

"How can I sleep if the young lady doesn't come back?"

"You can have a good sleep tonight."

"Miss, from today on we have to go into the room and wait for you to sleep. You can't let us go back to sleep by ourselves. From now on, I won't leave no matter how you drive me away."

"I know you are worried about this situation, but Lixia was also in the room at that time. If this happens again, you will just be one more person to be kidnapped in my room."

"Just let me be kidnapped. At least I can stay with you, young lady, and take care of you."

"Silly boy, luckily they only kidnapped us this time but didn't do anything to us. We may not be so lucky next time. If one more person is kidnapped, I will have to think about how to save one more person."

"Pah, pah, pah, there won't be a next time. There must not be a next time. And miss, you don't have to think about saving us. Your own life is the most important. Maybe one more person will give you one more chance to survive."

"Li Qiu, your life is your own. Everyone's life is important. No one has to sacrifice for anyone else, or die for anyone. So you must cherish your life and take control of your life. Don't say things like you want to die for me. I don't need it and I don't want it. If something really happens that kills me, then that is my own life. Do you understand?" Ye Ziyu stood up and put her hands on Li Qiu's shoulders.

Li Qiu was stunned. From childhood to adulthood, she had been taught to do everything for her master, even if she had to die for the master. As long as the master asked, they had no choice. She had also seen too many maids killed casually by the master. But today, her mistress told her that her life was her own and she had to control it herself. Li Qiu cried. Her mistress was really different from everyone else. She was equally kind to everyone and respected everyone equally. From then on, Li Qiu swore that she would cherish her life and protect the mistress.

Ye Ziyu looked at Li Qiu and her eyes gradually turned red. She touched Li Qiu's head and said, "Go and have a good rest. I'll go see Mother Yang by myself. Go ahead."

Liqiu nodded, and Ye Ziyu turned and went to Mother Yang's room.

"Knock knock knock, Mommy Yang, I'm coming in." Ye Ziyu knocked on Mommy Yang's door, then pushed it open and went in.

"Miss, is everything okay?"

"Mother Yang, don't worry, everything is fine. I'm back safely."

“Okay, okay, God bless you, God bless you, cough cough cough…”

"Mother Yang, drink some water quickly." Ye Ziyu poured a glass of water and handed it to Mother Yang. "I made Mother Yang worried this time, and it even caused Mother Yang to fall ill."

"Miss, this is not your fault. It's the traffickers who went too far. But I'm afraid I'll have to wait another two days before I can set off."

"Mother Yang, you should have a good rest first. Taking good care of yourself is the most important thing. We can talk about it after you are better. It's just right that we can all have a good rest these two days. No one has had a good sleep in two days."

"Okay, okay, Miss, go and have a rest. You must be exhausted these past two days."

"Yeah." Ye Ziyu got up and helped Mother Yang lie down, tucked in the quilt for Mother Yang, and then went back to her room.
