In terms of seniority, Yueniang is still Du's sister and Caiwei's aunt. At this moment, she is standing by the lotus pond, with tears streaming down her face, her expression is despairing, her body is trembling slightly, as if she will fall down at any time.

When Caiwei saw her, she felt sympathy and pity for her. This poor woman, just like her mother yesterday, was facing the fate of being sacrificed by her family. From now on, she would be associated with a dying old man. Biyu's years will go by accompanied by the old man's coughing, backache and leg pain. What a cruel thing this is for a young girl in her prime!

Mrs. Du also saw Yueniang, quietly slowed down, and whispered to her daughter: "Weier, do you think there is anything abnormal about her?"

Just after she finished speaking, there was a "plop" sound, and Du Yueniang fell into the lotus pond. However, she did not struggle, but sank along the pond water.

"No! She wants to commit suicide!"

Caiwei exclaimed, put the jewelry box in her mother's hand, ran to the lotus pond in three steps, and jumped in with a "pop".

The water in the pool was still very cold in April. As soon as Caiwei entered the pool, her body was almost convulsed by the cold. She endured the discomfort and swam to Yueniang's side quickly.

At this moment, Yueniang had lost consciousness, closed her eyes, and was drifting in the water like a duckweed. Caiwei held her and swam hard to the shore.

On the shore, Mrs. Du shouted loudly, which quickly attracted several nearby servants. They pulled Caiwei and Yueniang up in a hurry. Send the two of them back to their own yard.

Caiwei returned to Changchun Garden, immediately took off her clothes and lay on the bed. Du Shi ordered Xiaohong to boil the bath water, Xiaoqing to make the cold-repelling soup, while he held the hot tea and served her daughter to drink it herself.

"Weier, are you feeling sick?"

Mrs. Du was extremely worried. In two days, her daughter would go to attend the Shangsi Festival. What would happen if she got cold now?

Caiwei smiled and said, "It's okay, mom, don't worry about me. I'm strong. I'll just drink a few sips of cold-repelling soup and get some sleep."

Mrs. Du complained: "You are too unwilling to let mother worry, why did you jump into the pool yourself? You didn't even think about your own body before rushing to save others. If you get cold, what will happen to you?"

Just as she was talking, Mrs. Mei came over, holding Fei'er's hand, touching Caiwei on the kang, feeling so distressed that she shed tears.

"You kid, why don't you know how to be careful? My daughter's body is precious, and she is most afraid of being cold. If she gets chilled by cold water, the root cause of the disease will be cured if she sits down..."

Caiwei remembered what the old turtle said, don't let her cry. It's not good for her eyes. Seeing her crying, Caiwei hurriedly cheered up and told her a lot of jokes before diverting her attention. , coaxing her to stop crying.

After coaxing her grandmother and boiling the bath water, Caiwei was not used to having people around her while taking a bath, so she asked them all to go out. She stayed in the house alone and sat comfortably in the barrel.

As soon as she entered the tub, the warm water made most of the coldness on her body go away, and she felt much more comfortable. She soaked lazily in the tub, took a comfortable nap, and fell asleep in a daze.

While sleeping, I suddenly heard a woman's cry, mixed with a few words of confession, coming from the east room.

After Caiwei woke up from crying, she immediately pricked up her ears and listened.

"Sister Mei, I treated you like that back then, but I didn't expect that it would be your granddaughter who saved my Yueniang today. I really feel guilty. If I don't personally apologize to my sister, I won't be able to live with it anymore."
