Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yang Xiaoxun still considered her grandmother at her most desperate moment. She might not have been able to resist suicide if she did not want to go home and see her grandmother.

She even felt she did not have the right to see her grandmother. After all, Yang Xiaoxun felt she would embarra.s.s her grandmother.

She had gone to the Han Residence and not returned for three years.

Therefore, she missed her grandmother and wanted to see her. Yang Xiaoxun always wondered how her grandmother was doing.

She walked back from Beijing with a stubborn att.i.tude and traveled for more than half a year. She did not starve along her journey because she met kind people who helped her along her journey.

Since then, Yang Xiaoxun never left her grandmother again and continued to live with her. Fortunately, Yang Xiaoxun knew how to embroider and could make a living.

Her depression inevitably disappeared, perhaps because she met those kind people along her journey. Those who had helped her had fixed her shattered heart bit by bit.

Therefore, she wanted to help others in need, like Su Binglan and Luo Jinan, who needed a place to stay for the night.

Su Binglan could not calm down for a while after hearing Yang Xiaoxuns story.

Although Old Madam Yang and her granddaughter made it sound simple, Su Binglan knew Yang Xiaoxun had experienced many trials and tribulations.

Yang Xiaoxun had no background in a rich and powerful mansion. Moreover, she had such an innocent personality. Su Binglan suspected people must have tried killing Yang Xiaoxun several times.

Old Madam Yang wiped her tears and said, 1 dont know what she had experienced. When she returned, she fell at the door and scared me. She was all skin and bones, with her feet bleeding from traveling so far.

Xiaoxun wasnt like this in the past. When she woke up, she said she had embarra.s.sed me. Shes such a foolish girl. I dont know if I could live if anything happened to her.

Yang Xiaoxuns eyes reddened, but she refused to cry. She choked and said, Indeed, I was foolish. After experiencing such terrible things, I knew I had to live with Grandma. I was stupid not to listen to my grandmother.

She said we cant live in such a big mansion and shouldnt be concubines. I didnt understand what she meant before, but I learned it the hard way. Im sorry for making a fool of myself, Grandma.

No, its not your fault. Its theirs. Su Binglan shook her head. Dont punish yourself for other peoples mistakes. You must continue living a good life with your grandmother.

If you can live dazzlingly one day, those who hurt you will know they have mistreated you. Dont live for them but for yourself and your loved ones. They would feel nothing if you died, but your grandmother would be heartbroken.

Yang Xiaoxuns heart pounded when she heard those words. She felt enlightened.

Yes, I want to live a good life.

Su Binglan pitied Yang Xiaoxun but knew the women of this era did not receive much education. Most women had straightforward thoughts, so Yang Xiaoxun was not a foolshe was kind and too quick to trust.

Come here, Su Binglan said, Let me see your face. 1 might be able to help since I know medicine.

She was confident she could heal Yang Xiaoxuns face entirely. A burnt face was a small matter to Su Binglan.

Old Madam Yang and her granddaughter could not believe what they had just heard. They wondered how such a young lady like Su Binglan knew medicine.

Still, they knew she was not ordinary when they looked at her. Furthermore, Yang Xiaoxun had stayed with the Han family before. She thought Su Binglan had a more n.o.ble temperament than those from the Han family.

However, Su Binglans words resembled a light of hope that lit up Old Madam Yang and Yang Xiaoxuns hearts. The grandmother and granddaughter were so excited that they could not speak.

Yang Xiaoxun tried to find her voice as she sobbed a little, saying, Im afraid Ill scare you.

Su Binglan shook her head. You wont scare me. You have a kind heart and are beautiful. Your appearance will recoverperhaps, youll be even more beautiful than before.

Her words moved Yang Xiaoxun, and the latter removed the cloth from her face. Su Binglan was shocked when she saw the young ladys face.

How severe was the fire for her face to become like this?

Yang Xiaoxun carefully looked into Su Binglans eyes and became a little nervous.

Su Binglan said calmly, Its okay. I can heal you.

After all, it was a small matter to her.

Old Madam Yang was so excited that her lips and hands trembled. Can you really heal her, Miss?

Su Binglan smiled. Yes, I can. I can also check on your leg later, Madam. 1 can heal it, too.

Old Madam Yang was so excited that she almost knelt. She did not care about her legs and only wanted someone to heal her granddaughters face. That way, her granddaughter would no longer be ashamed.

Old Madam Yang was in tears, and Su Binglan hurriedly stopped her from kneeling. Fortunately, Su Binglan had prepared herbs and medicine in her pocket dimension.

She went to the back room and discreetly removed some herbs from her pocket dimension, then started to brew the medicine. She made it into an ointment and told Yang Xiaoxun to apply it to her face.

Su Binglan had prepared to make the young lady even more beautiful. Not only could her ointment cure the burns, but it could also revitalize Yang Xiaoxuns skin and make it fairer and more delicate.

Most importantly, Su Binglan thought Yang Xiaoxun had an excellent voice. She wanted the young lady to act in her play. Still, Yang Xiaoxun had to agree first.

Next, Su Binglan performed acupuncture on Old Madam Yang and applied a hot compress on her legs. Then she gave the older woman some medicine to drink.

Old Madam Yang was grateful to Su Binglan for helping her granddaughter but felt guilty that she had to treat her leg, too. In addition, Old Madam Yang thought the medicine Su Binglan had prepared was costly.

Old Madam Yang knew she could not allow Su Binglan to give the medicine away for free and felt apologetic.

Still, Su Binglan insisted. She said she planned to stay a few more days as accommodation fees. She also said, l think your voice is lovely, Xiaoxun. I was planning on finding someone for my play, so I wonder if youd like to partic.i.p.ate.

The grandmother and granddaughter were shocked again. They knew about a few opera troupes. Even if they wanted to partic.i.p.ate, they would need to know how to sing.

Yang Xiaoxun wondered if she could still act and sing after what she had experienced in her current state. Still, she was ecstatic, saying, Thank you, Miss, but I dont know much about singing and acting.

Su Binglan urged, You can always learn what you dont know. It depends on whether or not youre willing to learn.

Yang Xiaoxuns gaze was firm as she said, l want to learn, Miss. Ill study hard.

If 1 succeed, Ill never let Grandma go hungry again. Ill give her a good life.

Meanwhile, Old Madam Yang felt conflicted as she repeatedly thanked Su Binglan for all her help.

Later that night, Su Binglan did not feel sleepy even though she and her husband were lying in bed. She turned to Luo Jinan and said, Dont you have anything to say?

What do you want me to talk about?

Su Binglan blinked.. How about the Han family?
