♂?，，

  Yun Ting heard the sound of Liu Niang walking out of the courtyard, and in just a moment, she had already figured it out. San Mei was clearly different from before. How could she be so polite to Liu Niang? And how could she still invite Liu Niang to come often?

  There are four young ladies in the Fu family, only Sanmei Chuke is born of a concubine and is illegitimate.

  The mother gave birth to three daughters: the eldest sister, herself, and the fourth younger sister. She didn't want to bother with Chu Ke'ai, this illegitimate daughter at all. The third younger sister was raised by a servant on the surface, but actually grew up following a servant girl who was one of the wife's dowry maidservants and married to Sun Cheng, the manager of the outer courtyard.

  Sun Chengjia is his mother's trusted right-hand man, wholeheartedly raising Chu Ke'er with a strong family atmosphere, wanting to form a stark contrast with the legitimate young lady.

  When there is a wife like this by one's side, she always remembers that the child was born to her sister-in-law. Although it cannot be compared with the first and second misses, as well as the fourth miss who were also born to her sister-in-law, however, she must treat the madam as if she were her own mother, only then will there be a way out in the future.

  These words have been said many times, and Chu Ke'er, the third sister who grew up with these words, felt especially inferior. Every time she met her mother-in-law, she was extremely polite and didn't dare to be slightly disobedient, allowing her mother-in-law to manipulate her. If her mother-in-law gave her a slightly good expression, she would become excited. As for her own biological mother, Liu Niangniang, she couldn't bear to see her, and even if they accidentally met in the mansion, she would quickly walk away without even looking at her, as if avoiding a plague.

  The lady is the birth mother, Sanmei grew up a bit and knew some rules, knowing that she should be diligent in the morning and evening, so she did even more excessively, every day from dawn till dusk without any slackness. When the lady fell ill, she was even more devoted to serving her by her bedside without taking off her clothes, and took over the servant girls' work to do it herself, only then did her mother start paying attention to her.

  However, even if she was concerned, it was limited. Her mother had no children and her mind was focused on having a child. With herself and fourth sister around her, it was already quite good that she could pretend to be polite. Third sister had been looking at people's faces for a long time, and the more she was spoiled, the weaker her personality became. She conformed to Sun Chengjia's wishes, but the more she did so, the more petty she became.

  Sun Cheng's family treated her like a puppet, and the maidservants around Chu Ke'er were so used to it that they didn't have any respect or fear for her, anyone could point fingers at her.

  Except for one person, it was Liu Yiniang. In the entire mansion, only Liu Yiniang would carefully observe Sanmei's expression and even if Sanmei's face was cold and her expression was disgusted, she would still go up to her and carefully talk to her about some things. As a young lady of the family, one must pay respects to elders in the morning and evening... as a young lady of the family, you absolutely cannot always lower your head and be timid...

  All these were heard by Chu Yunting when Sun Cheng's family and mother returned to report, at that time, hearing this, she coldly laughed in her heart, what's the use of saying these? Look at Sanmei's appearance, where is there a bit of a noble lady's demeanor? Not even comparable to a third-rate maid by her side.

  But today, just by listening to her words, I knew that this Sanmei... was no longer the original Sanmei.

  Chu Yunting was still dazed, thinking that Ouhe had already flashed twice in the place where the green gauze window and the inner room were connected. Nian'er understood that she was worried about San Gu Niang coming out to see her, so she quickly squatted down and called out softly: "Second sister? Second sister?"

  Chu Yun Ting suddenly woke up, looked at her in a daze, made up her mind, didn't hesitate anymore, stood up and rushed into the inner room.

  She walked straight in, her eyes fixed tightly on Chu Kei inside the house, wondering what her first reaction would be when she saw herself after waking up.

  Chu Ke saw her and was visibly stunned, a look of confusion on her face as she stared blankly at the person who had suddenly burst in, then naturally looked back at Yu He, seemingly waiting for an explanation of how this person had just barged in.

  Lotus and Nian'er were shocked by Chu Yunting's sudden movement, and Lotus shouted: "Second Miss?"

  Chu Yun Ting was still staring at Chu Ke Hui, watching her every move. Chu Ke Hui seemed to be not frightened by her sudden intrusion, but rather stunned, then reacted and smiled as she stood up and bowed: "Second sister, you're here."

  It looks like nothing has changed... except for a slightly different expression on his face...

  Chu Yun Ting didn't know if she was trying to comfort herself or unwilling to admit that Chu Kei was also the same as her, anyway, she felt that Sanmei seemed no different from before. She changed her expression and put on a smile: "Sanmei woke up?"

  "Hmm... just woke up." Chu Kei smiled again, but her smile seemed to be missing something. However, Chu Yun Ting could feel that she didn't have any hostile intentions...

  She let out a soft sigh, then smiled and said: "Third sister, it's easy to get sick when you're cooped up in the house for too many days. Now that you've woken up, the summer flowers outside are blooming, why not come out with second sister for a stroll?"

  Chu Ke had a somewhat indecisive look, glanced out the window, thought for a moment and nodded: "Alright, Second Sister, wait for me for a bit, I'll change into some clothes."

  Chu Yun Ting nodded with a smile and said: "I'll wait outside." She then walked out.

  After waiting in the main room for a while, Chu Ke came out wearing a moon-white silk dress, walking as slowly as before, but not with her head hung low like usual. She smiled when she saw me: "Shall we go, Second Sister?"

  Chu Yunting was taken aback by her suddenly radiant and dazzling smile, and she hurriedly returned to her senses, responding with a distracted smile. She felt puzzled again, wondering if this was still the same Sanmei from before, who could possibly smile so openly at her? After thinking for a moment, she made up her mind.

  Two people came out of the yard, along the corridor slowly to the back garden, arrived at a large garden, Chu Yun Ting did not stop, but continued to walk towards the back, where there was a pavilion, similar to the Wangyue Tower of the Junwang Mansion, also a high place to look far away, although not as high as the Wangyue Tower.

  "...just woke up, now the house is in a mess, today has reached this time, I suppose there are guests ahead, so don't need to go over, but tonight will have to go and keep vigil..." Chu Yun Ting pressed her handkerchief against the corner of her eyes: "Mother doesn't have a son, only us daughters can guard the spirit."

  "Yes, it should be like this." Chu Kui replied.

  Two people whispered to each other and arrived in front of the attic, Chu Yunting carefully looked at Chu Kui, Chu Kui saw the attic without any abnormal expression, very naturally.

  "Go up and sit for a while, you can see which part of the mansion has blooming flowers... Ah, it's also a way to make your mood more comfortable."

  "Good" Chu Ke stepped forward and entered the attic first.

  Chu Yun Ting hesitated for a moment, looking at Chu Ke Hui's appearance, seemingly somewhat impatient...

  She walked to the third floor, Chu Yun Ting was a bit out of breath, but Chu Ke Hui had a lot of interest, immediately standing in front of the window looking at the surrounding scenery, Chu Yun Ting slowly walked to her side and said softly: "It's very high here..."

  Chu Ke smiled and nodded: "Yes, everything in our mansion can be seen clearly from here." She stretched out her hand to point at a not-too-distant place: "There are many flowers blooming over there."

  Chu Yun Ting took a glance at the place she pointed to, and then quietly looked at her and said: "That's our flower bed, where many flowers are planted..."

  She glanced out at the white-filled mansion and suddenly pointed: "Look over there" Her hand brushed past Chu Ke's body.

  Chu Ke looked in the direction she was pointing and asked somewhat puzzled: "What's there?"

  Chu Yun Ting felt her heart 'thud' and fall to the ground. She can now be certain that Sanmei is absolutely not like herself, reborn and returned. If she knew about that matter, no matter how well she could hide it on the surface, her subconscious reaction would not be hidden.

  The action I just did is very similar to the one that would push her down. If someone had a preconceived notion, they would think I was going to push her down again. The Sanmei in front of me clearly has never experienced anything like this before, so she didn't notice anything and her expression remained unchanged, not even raising an eyebrow. She's still the same old Sanmei as before.

  Maybe the temperament has changed a bit, but absolutely nothing has happened in the past year or so.

  Chu Ke's puzzled gaze turned to Chu Yunting, whose face was filled with joy. In an instant, her expression returned to normal. Looking at where she was pointing, she paused for a moment and smiled: "I actually made a mistake... I thought I saw something moving just now."

  Seeing Chu Ke'er nodding slightly with an indifferent expression, Chu Yunting finally let out a sigh of relief.

  ……

  Chu Yunting stood under the eaves, thinking blankly. This period of time has passed, and it can be seen that Sanmei's temperament is indeed very different from before. She has been calm for these days and thought about some things. It's possible that Sanmei's change in temperament has something to do with her mother's passing...

  She was lost in thought until a sudden voice beside her asked: "What are you thinking about? You're staring blankly!"

  Startled, she hastily looked over and saw Li Lankun wearing a deep blue velvet cloak, which made her face even whiter than snow, standing aside with a smiling expression.

  She gently stroked her startled heart and scolded in a low voice: "It's just a mischievous nature."

  "Hurry up and say what you're thinking!" Li Lanjun's eyes sparkled with a flirtatious glint: "If you don't tell me, I'll guess?"

  Chu Yun Ting slightly frowned and said: "It's just that the plum branch with snow hanging in the distance caught my eye... Let's go now." She looked at Nian Er, Nian Er hastily picked up a pair of wooden clogs from the corner of the wall, squatted down to help her put them on.

  Li Lankun still wanted to tease her, and seeing that she was a bit flustered, she smiled and nodded slightly. The maid behind her also came up to help her put on wooden clogs.

  Chu Yunting put on soft-soled embroidered slippers and directly slipped into the wooden clogs, Nian'er tightly tied the colored ribbons, both feet were wearing them, Chu Yunting waited for a moment for Li Lankun, until she was also dressed, then the two went along the corridor towards the back mountain.

  It is by.
