After Yao Baiqian left with Zhen Lan, Shuning stumbled and ran to Su Wan's bedside. Her lips trembled as she looked at Su Wan in panic. "Eldest madam, you have to save me. I don't want to die. I just want to stay by your side for the rest of my life."
"Okay, don't be scared."
Su Wan patted Shuning's head. "I'll help you. Don't worry. You have to remember to do what I tell you to do. I'll naturally ensure your safety."
Shuning lifted her face and saw the light in Su Wan's eyes. She bit her lips and slowly nodded. "I understand. Eldest madam, don't worry."
"Okay, then go do what you need to do. Tell others not to disturb me. I'm going to sleep for a bit."
Su Wan waved her hands and Shuning immediately left obediently. After she left, Su Wan put down the curtains on the wooden bed and sat cross-legged on the bed, quietly adjusting her breathing.
When she was in Luanfeng Country, she inherited the princess royal's memories. Naturally, she learned Luanfeng Country's martial arts. The princess royal learned martial arts for women and one of them was to regulate internal breathing. Su Wan wanted to take this opportunity to regulate the aura Su Rui inserted into her body. This would help her slowly recover her broken body.
…
By the time Su Wan opened her eyes again, it was already dusk. Her forehead was covered in sweat, but her body had a bit more strength than before.
Lifting the curtains, Su Wan planned on getting off the bed to find a towel to wipe her forehead. At this time, someone suddenly pushed open a small crack in the door.
Su Wan narrowed her eyes and pretended not to see anything. She slowly got off the bed. But after a few steps, she lost her footing and fell to the ground.
"Sister-in-law!"
At this time, the door was pushed open and a small and thin figure hurriedly ran in.
Su Wan lifted her eyes and met a pair of clear and innocent eyes that were abnormally nervous.
"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"
The young man's voice was soft and pleasant to listen to.
Su Wan smiled weakly at the young man. "Beichao, why are you here again? If concubine Hu finds out, she'll whip you again! "
Yin Beichao, the son of Yin Shun's concubine, Hu Huiyue. He was the third child in the family.
Yin Beichao's expression darkened. "She only knows how to watch the show and beat people up. She's either hitting and scolding me all day. She's not my mother! Sister-in-law, how about you be my mother in the future? "
Su Wan: … …
Young man, you are really naive.
"Silly child. Eldest sister-in-law is eldest sister-in-law, and mother is mother. This is different. "
Saying this, Su Wan used Yin Beichao's support to slowly stand up. "Sister-in-law is weak and sickly. Your mother doesn't want you to visit me for your own good. She's afraid that I'll pass the sickness to you."
"Humph."
Yin Beichao's gaze darkened and he weakly snorted. "It's not because of this. She's just afraid of first mother and second mother, and …"
Yin Beichao lifted his childish face and looked at Su Wan angrily. "Sister-in-law, Yue Xiu in second sister-in-law's courtyard is the worst. She told everyone that … that you're a vixen who seduced second brother. She also said that eldest brother died because of you! How could she do this? Sister-in-law, you clearly didn't do anything. When eldest brother was still alive, you guys treated me the best. At that time, eldest brother said that you were the best person in the world. But why are they bullying you now that eldest brother isn't here? If eldest brother was still alive, he definitely wouldn't let anyone bully you! "
Su Wan froze hearing Yin Beichao's words.
Yin Beiyue.
In the original body's memory, the Yin Family's eldest master who passed away was really gentle and considerate. He was also talented. Unfortunately, the heavens were jealous of geniuses. Such a handsome and outstanding man died young.
He really was a good man. Unfortunately, the original body didn't meet him first but Yin Beichao.
"Sigh."
Su Wan sighed softly. The world of adults was just so complicated and helpless.
In the Yin Family, how many people dared to say that they were innocent and had a clear conscience?
Other than the original body, the cleanest and most sincere person in this residence was Yin Beichao. He was a thirteen-year-old child with a pure heart.
Yin Beichao's mother, Hu Huiyue, was originally a pillar of an opera troupe in Liao City. Once, she was invited to celebrate Yin Shun's birthday. Yin Shun took a liking to her at first glance. Later on, he naturally left the beauty in the Yin Residence to be his concubine.
As a warlord in charge of a territory, Yin Shun was a ruthless and temperamental person.
He once brought eight concubines into the Yin Family but only Hu Huiyue was still alive and well. She even successfully gave birth to a son for Yin Shun.
This son didn't come easily. Although Yin Beichao was a bastard son in the Yin Family and wasn't favored, Hu Huiyue had to rely on her son for the rest of her life.
The more Hu Huiyue hoped that her son could surpass the first lady's two sons, the more her son failed to live up to her expectations. He couldn't learn anything.
Therefore, beating, scolding, and punishing became a common occurrence in Yin Beichao's life.
When the original body had just married into the Yin Family, there was a time when she saw Hu Huiyue whipping Yin Beichao. The kind-hearted her naturally went up to stop her. Knowing that Hu Huiyue was punishing her son because of his studies, Su Wan suggested that she could tutor Yin Beichao.
At that time, Yin Beiyue was still around and Su Wan had a status in the Yin Family. Hu Huiyue knew that Su Wan came back from overseas and knew a lot. Naturally, she was happy to let Yin Beichao get closer to her elder brother and sister-in-law.
It was also at that time that the original owner and Yin Beichao formed a sibling relationship.
Although Su Wan was left to fend for herself in the side courtyard due to Yin Beiyue's death, Yin Beichao would still visit her every now and then …
"Beichao, why are you here today?"
Su Wan found a handkerchief and wiped her face. Then she turned to look at Yin Beichao behind her.
Yin Beichao revealed a hesitant expression. "Sister-in-law, you told me and elder brother about your experiences overseas. Elder brother said that it's a completely different world from here. I … I want to go out and take a look but … my mother won't let me."
Yin Beichao's gaze dimmed. "I don't know what to do. If I go find my father and tell him that I want to study overseas like second brother, will he agree?"
Study overseas …
Hearing Yin Beichao's words, Su Wan looked down.
In the plot she knew, Yin Beichao did go overseas and … he never came back.
Of course, this shouldn't have happened now. It should've happened three years later.
At that time, Guan Li would've entered the Yin Family. The fights in the Yin Family's backyard gradually escalated. Second Master Yin Chengmo and General Yin Shun fought for power. Second Master's wife, Bu Ningshan, and Yao Baiqian were also fighting to the death. At this time, Hu Huiyue's affair with an entertainer was exposed. Therefore, Yin Shun sent people to send Yin Beichao out of the country and then drowned Hu Huiyue …
