“Isn’t that too good to be true?” Ye Qingyu instinctively suspected. “Which carpenter’s shop is it?”

She had a feeling that her first younger brother’s whereabouts seemed to have something to do with the money for her medicine.

“In the Qian family. I’m not lying to you.” Madam Ye looked at her reproachfully. She was afraid that her daughter would ask too much, so she quickly changed the topic and asked.

“Do you remember who saved you from the river?”

When they found out that their daughter had fallen into the river, she had already been saved and placed on the shore. When they asked the villagers, they said that they did not see who had saved her.

This matter could be big or small. It involved her daughter’s reputation. After all, if the person who saved her was a young man and had skin contact with his daughter, the other party would have to be responsible for his daughter.

When Ye Qingyu heard this, she carefully searched her memories and realized that her memories of being saved after falling into the water did not belong to the original owner, but to herself. It turned out that she had transmigrated back then.

Then, a determined and defined face with a scar on the left eyebrow appeared in her mind. Through the original owner’s memories, she knew that the person who saved her was Xu Jingnan from the village.

Recalling the process of being saved by him, the corners of Ye Qingyu’s mouth twitched. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Xu Jingnan had gone into the river to save her, but he had not carried her to the shore. Instead, he had put her in a large bamboo cage and pulled her to the shore with a rope. He did not touch her at all. There was no such thing as skin contact!

“Mother, I know what you’re thinking. I fainted. I don’t know who saved me, but even if I do know, I want to pretend that I don’t.

He saved me out of goodwill. If we make use of this to force him to marry me, won’t we be repaying kindness with ingratitude?”

Ye Qingyu came back to her senses and said to her mother, hiding Xu Jingnan’s presence.

Since the other party had chosen that method to save her because he did not want to be associated with her, it was better for her not to say it.

“You silly girl, what are you talking about? How is that repaying kindness with ingratitude? You know how to read and write, you know how to embroider, and you have a good personality. It’s my blessing for anyone to marry you!” Madam Ye did not like to hear her daughter’s words and immediately glared at her.

Ye Qingyu smiled at her mother, held her hand, and said softly,

“Mother, we’re farmers. If the men in this village want to marry, they would marry strong women who are able to go to the fields and farm. They also have to cook at home. Although I can read and embroider, I don’t know how to do any housework or farming. Furthermore, my face is ruined. Who would want me?”

Madam Ye knew that her daughter was telling the truth. She looked at her daughter’s half-disfigured face and withered hair. When she thought of her daughter’s original delicate appearance, her heart was crushed.

It hurt so much.

Madam Ye turned her head and quickly wiped away her tears. She stood up and helped Ye Qingyu lie down again. She gently tucked her in.

“Alright, let’s not talk about this. It’s fine as long as you’re awake now. It’s dark. I’m going to cook. Sleep well. I will wake you up when it’s time to eat.”

“Mother, there’s no need to wake me up. I’ll be sweating after drinking the medicine and will sleep well. I’ll be fine by tomorrow morning,” Ye Qingyu quickly said.

She was indeed tired. After talking for a while, she was already exhausted. She did not want to eat anymore and wanted to save food for the family.

“That works too.” Madam Ye tucked her daughter in again. She looked at her lovingly and went out with the medicine bowl.

Ye Qingyu watched her mother leave and sighed. She was still brooding over her first younger brother’s matter.

Her mother must be hiding something from her, and it wasn’t a good thing.
