Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

After comforting Yao Ruohuan, Yao Feiran took a stack of silver notes from the secret room, hid them in the lining of her clothes, and then closed the secret room.

Hurried footsteps approached, and the door was suddenly pushed open, revealing a woman dressed in fine clothes at the front.

Upon seeing Yao's mother's body, she instantly collapsed to the ground and burst into tears.

"Little sister, what's wrong?"

The man in black beside her comforted her, saying, "Madam, please accept my condolences. Your niece is still alive."

Shen Qiumei wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and then saw Yao Feiran and Yao Ruohuan standing to the side, looking wary. Shen Qiumei felt a pang of heartache.

"Feiran, Ruohuan, don't you recognize your aunt?"

Yao Ruohuan's numb eyes finally lit up, and she threw herself into her aunt's arms.

"Aunt, Aunt, Mother is gone, she's all gone."

"Oh, don't be sad. Your aunt will take you home. From now on, your aunt will be your support."

Ling Mingchen scrutinized Yao Feiran and noticed that her bright black eyes were looking around, and the wariness in her eyes had not disappeared; her emotions were frighteningly calm.

"Feiran, I am your uncle, the Duke of Yue of the Great Yuan Dynasty. From now on, you will be my daughters."

Yao Feiran: "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt."

Shen Qiumei frowned slightly. Compared to Yao Ruohuan, who was completely dependent on her, she felt that Yao Feiran was too indifferent.

Yao Feiran could see Shen Qiumei's displeasure, but as an outsider who had lived several lifetimes, she couldn't feign grief.

At most, he will avenge the original owner of this body in the future.

Since their enemies had wiped out the Yao family, they wanted to leave no survivors.

Then Yao Feiran will surely repay in kind.

Shen Qiumei took the two of them back to the Duke's mansion. She said softly, "From now on, you will be the third and fourth young ladies of the Duke's mansion."

Shen Qiumei gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and her concubine had a daughter.

"Ruohuan will stay in Tinglan Courtyard, and Feiran will stay in Ningxiang Courtyard. Their things have already been packed."

"Yes, Aunt."

The two were put into the courtyard and given some old women and maids.

After entering the courtyard, Yao Feiran kept thinking about who the Yao family had offended.

The Duke of Yue was ruled out first.

Shen Qiumei and Yao's mother were originally the daughters of the Medicine Saint Elder, and were among the most beautiful women in the martial arts world. Later, when Shen Qiumei was treating Ling Mingchen, the two fell in love and she married him, while Yao's mother married Yao's father.

The two sisters had always had a good relationship, and Shen Qiumei often came to visit her younger sister. However, she had never liked people from the martial arts world, feeling that they relied on brotherhood and had no rules, killing people at will and harming innocent people.

Based on past patterns, Yao Feiran believes that this enemy is probably related to the male lead or the second male lead in some way.

As she was pondering, her maid, Dujuan, came over.

"Third Miss, Second Miss is here."

The second young lady of the Duke's mansion is an illegitimate daughter, and it's unclear what she's doing here. Yao Feiran is just a ten-year-old child.

As soon as Du Juan finished speaking, Ling Sishang walked in. She had an oval face and a petite figure. Although her eyebrows and eyes looked immature, her face was as pink as a peach blossom. She was sure to be a beauty when she grew up.

"You must be the third sister that your mother brought over. I heard that something happened to your family and was worried that something might happen to you, so I came to see you. I also brought this thing so you can play with it to pass the time when you have nothing to do."

"Thank you for your concern, Second Sister."

"You're new here, so I don't know what you're lacking."

"no."

The two fell silent. Ling Sishang was also surprised by Yao Feiran's coldness. She had thought that Yao Feiran must be feeling uneasy and seeking solace in her new environment with her sister in another courtyard. However, Yao Feiran's words were perfunctory.

Ling Sishang showed a look of pity: "Mother is helping Fourth Sister tidy up the courtyard. I heard that the courtyard is full of things, and her courtyard is in the East Boudoir, which is close to Eldest Sister's courtyard."

In this era, the left was generally considered superior to the right. The east courtyard was mainly inhabited by legitimate daughters and was also close to the master's room, while the west courtyard was where illegitimate daughters lived. Coincidentally, Yao Feiran's courtyard was in the west courtyard, next to Ling Sishang's.

"Aunt is good to my sister and took us in. Fei Ran will only be grateful. Second sister, don't try to sow discord. If Aunt finds out, you won't have an easy time."

"You're such a blockhead! No wonder your mother doesn't like you."

Ling Sishang couldn't provoke Yao Feiran's emotions and was even threatened, so she had no choice but to leave dejectedly.

Yao Feiran sat down, speechless. It was only the first day and they were already trying to sow discord. She was focused on practicing martial arts and had no intention of getting involved in any palace intrigue.

Moreover, she's surrounded by Shen Qiumei's people. If she says anything unpleasant, it'll surely reach Shen Qiumei. Ling Sishang really is simple-minded.

"I need to rest in my room. Don't disturb me unless it's absolutely necessary."

"Yes."

Yao Feiran locked the door and immediately began cultivating. She felt the true energy within her body that very day, and was just about to finish dinner before continuing her cultivation.

Yao Ruohuan came over.

Her eyes were still red. An eight-year-old girl already knew what had happened. Seeing her mother die in front of her, it would probably be very difficult for her to get over it.

Yao Feiran also hugged her and patted her.

"Ruohuan, what's wrong?"

"Sister, why aren't you sad at all?"

"...Actually, I'm very sad, but I can't cry anymore."

Yao Ruohuan asked in confusion, "Really?"

"real."

Yao Ruohuan pouted, seemingly not quite believing it. Yao Feiran led her into the house and took out half of the stack of silver notes, giving it to her: "This is the family's money. You can keep it yourself. It's more convenient if you have your own money on you."

"Is this something from that secret room?" Yao Ruohuan took it. "Sister, did you burn the family's martial arts manual?"

"Yes, that thing was a family martial arts manual. I was afraid it would fall into the wrong hands, so I destroyed it." Yao Feiran said calmly, "Do you want to learn it?"

"I won't learn it. My aunt said I shouldn't learn any martial arts, because I'll get caught up in the conflicts of the martial arts world. I hate martial arts and I hate fighting and killing. She said she would teach me medicine in the future."

Yao Feiran didn't bring up the topic again. If Yao Ruohuan wanted to learn, she would teach her, but she didn't seem to have that intention.

She forgot that for a woman who has lost her parents and her people, the only thing she can control in this world is power.

Yao Ruohuan was immersed in grief over the deaths of her parents, but she alone rejected hatred.

After chatting for a while, Yao Ruohuan left, and Yao Feiran closed the door to continue her cultivation.

Unexpectedly, Shen Qiumei called her over that very evening.

"Feiran, those who practice martial arts are not respectable people. Don't encourage your sister to go astray. You yourself are unruly enough, why lead Ruohuan astray!"

"understood."

Yao Feiran responded expressionlessly.

Shen Qiumei was furious, but the other party didn't react at all, leaving her speechless.

"Your mother has passed away. You must pay your respects to her every day, so that she will not have given you life in vain!"

"Yes, Aunt, if there's nothing else, Fei Ran will take her leave now."
