Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

After listening to the conversation, Dr. Wu concluded that the sisters must have had a falling out. Siyue was telling him not to take care of her older sister anymore. He thought to himself, "I knew it! Yiyue went back to the old house, but Siyue doesn't care about her at all!"

Why would this girl give up a good life?

Liu Yiyue slept soundly and didn't wake up until it was completely dark. She saw the room was brightly lit and then saw Madam Feng sitting in a chair by the bed. "Second Aunt."

"January, you woke up."

"Second Aunt, I remember I was gathering firewood on the mountain, how did I end up here?"

"You fainted on the mountain, and the villagers brought you back. I have already asked a doctor to examine you. The doctor said that you were overworked, malnourished, and your high fever had not subsided. All these factors caused you to faint."

Dr. Wu prescribed medicine for you, and I've already had it brought back for you. Your health is your own responsibility; you need to take care of it.

Liu Yiyue's stomach rumbled. "Are you hungry? I'll come over and warm up your food."

Madam Feng asked Xiao Tao to bring the food from the kitchen. Xiao Tao brought three dishes and a soup on a tray and placed them on the table. "Miss Yiyue, the food is still hot. Eat it while it's hot."

"Miss, you've only been gone a short time, how come you look so haggard?"

"It's okay, I'm perfectly fine."

She finished all the food that Liu Yiyue had served. She hadn't expected to eat so much. The food was so delicious. She wished her mother could eat such good food too.

"Second Aunt, I won't be going back tonight. Please send someone to the old house to let them know, I'm afraid Mother will worry."

"In January, you took all the bedding with you, and there are no new bedding in the house."

Whether Liu Yiyue didn't understand or was pretending, she said, "Second Aunt, it's okay. I don't care who I squeeze in with. I'll leave first thing tomorrow morning."

"It's April, and I've been here so long, why haven't I seen her?"

"She came to see you, but you weren't awake yet. She took the child back to her room to sleep."

"Oh, then I won't bother her. Second Aunt, did you bring back that bundle of firewood?"

"No, they should still be on the mountain."

"Second Aunt, where's Second Uncle? I have something to tell you."

"Your second uncle is in the main room. If you have something to say, go there and talk. I'll have someone take you home later."

"Is my second aunt trying to kick me out?"

"I think your mother must be very worried if you don't go home so late, and it wouldn't be good if she blamed you."

"Send someone back right now to tell my mother that she won't blame me."

Madam Feng didn't know what to say. She couldn't command the servants in the house, so she asked Ruyu to go find Lei Yi and have her go with you to the old house to say hello.

Ru Yu was extremely unwilling, but she couldn't go against her mother's wishes. With a dark face, she left. When she was almost at the gate of the old house, she saw a figure moving around there. She told Lei Yi to go alone.

Lei Yi approached the shadowy figure. "Excuse me, are you Liu Yiyue's family member?"

"Yes, I am her mother."

"Liu Yiyue fainted on the mountain today and was taken to her second uncle's house at the end of the village. She won't be coming home tonight, so she asked me to tell you."

"How is she now?"

"It's okay, everything's fine."

After saying that, Lei Yi quickly left. Huang Lanhua wanted to ask more questions, but found that he had already gone far away.

As soon as Huang Lanhua entered the courtyard, Grandpa Liu came looking for her, "Eldest daughter-in-law, how's January?"

"She went up the mountain to collect firewood today and fainted. The villagers took her to the end of the village."

"Your mother needs to use the outhouse, go and serve her."

"I don't have time for that. You'll have to serve him yourself."

"Huang, you are truly disobedient and unfilial. I'm going to the yamen to sue you for being an unfilial mother-in-law."

Old Master Liu is really going to be driven crazy by Madam Huang. She's completely stubborn now, and there's nothing you can do about it. The old woman is going to give him a hard time again tonight.

Ruyu returned home and told her mother, "Mother, I've delivered the message." Without lingering, she left immediately.

Liu Yiyue felt that her family wasn't as welcoming to her this time she came back, but she still had to say what she needed to say: "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Grandma injured her back, and I'm the one taking care of her now. It's very exhausting."

Grandpa and Grandma said they knew they were wrong, that they were sorry to Second Uncle and Second Aunt, and hoped that you could let go of the past grievances and forgive them.

Grandpa said they were getting old and their health was declining day by day. He only hoped that in his remaining years, the whole family could have a reunion dinner together, see brothers being kind and respectful to each other, helping each other, and living a good life.

Grandma misses Uncle and Aunt very much and hopes you can go back to see her. She says that as she gets older, she often thinks about you brothers when you were young, and calls out "Mom" as soon as you get home.

The old family is having a very hard time now. My sister-in-law miscarried, and the medical treatment and medicine alone cost nearly 50 taels of silver. They also had to compensate the Yu family with 50 taels of silver. My grandmother is sick and needs more money. In total, they've spent about 100 taels of silver. The sick people in the family can't even get anything good to eat. They just have coarse rice porridge every day, which isn't enough nutrition.

Liu Yiyue's words made Liu Dawang feel very uncomfortable at first, but as she spoke, Liu Dawang and Feng Shi became alert, wondering what she meant—did she want silver or grain?

Liu Dawang looked at his eldest niece, "Yiyue, if you want to help the old house, your second uncle won't stop you, but your second uncle has already severed ties with them. Once it's severed, it's severed. We won't have any more contact. Don't say these things again."

"Second Uncle, I know that my parents and grandparents have done many wrong things, but you are, after all, their own son and my father's own brother. We can't be separated by blood ties, and this bond of kinship cannot be severed by a mere letter of severance."

I couldn't persuade April, but April listens to her second uncle and aunt the most. As long as her second uncle and aunt acknowledge her grandparents, April can become their parent.

My second uncle couldn't just stand by and watch his parents suffer!

"January, you've come here today to act as a mediator for your grandparents. Your second uncle has made it clear to you that there is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation with the old house. Tell them to give up on that idea. Some things are done once they've been done, and the damage caused is irreparable."

Don't say it again. We don't want to hear it. It's getting late, go to sleep.

"Second Uncle, Second Aunt, can I take Xiao Tao with me and pick a male servant for me? Then I won't have to worry about firewood at home anymore."

"These people were all bought in April, I can't make that decision."

"Alright, I'll talk to April tomorrow. I'll ask if she can give me a few dozen kilograms of grain from home. I don't have much silver left either. If I buy grain, I won't have any money left to buy medicine."

"In January, we severed ties with the old house, so don't bring up these demands again. We don't want any connection with the old house, understand?"

Liu Dawang got up and left immediately. Madam Feng said helplessly, "Yiyue, you and Xiaotao will just have to make do for one night. Leave first thing tomorrow morning."

"Second Aunt, I still have something to discuss with Siyue. I can only leave after I see Siyue."

"You decide what to do. I'm going back to my room first. Xiao Tao, take her downstairs to rest."

"Miss January, apologize to your master and come back quickly. Your master will definitely forgive you."

"Xiaotao, do you also think I did something wrong? Is it wrong for me to be filial to my parents? Do you expect me to be an unfilial daughter? Our parents gave us our flesh and blood, so we should be filial to them and take care of them."

"Miss, I don't know what you're saying. I only know that the master treats you very well, and he treats Xiaotao well too."

"Yuzhen, do you think we shouldn't have saved her in the first place? This child seems a bit out of touch with reality, so blindly filial, she dares to make all sorts of demands, she even wants to take the servants with her, what is she thinking?"

"You and April did the right thing by saving her, but people's hearts are fickle, and who knows what will happen to whom in the future?"

She hasn't suffered enough from the past, hasn't endured enough hardship.

"Never mind, she's leaving first thing tomorrow morning. It's all my fault for being soft-hearted and letting her stay, which only made me unhappy."
