Gradually, Fen Lan was no longer afraid of the child in the jar. She began to plan for their future. With such a treasure, they would have a good life.
Fen Lan left the village with Yingying. On the way, she met the three brothers of the Ye family. She heard them discussing what to buy for Niuniu.
Yingying said enviously, "How good would it be if I was the girl they were talking about?"
Fen Lan comforted her. "It's fate that brings us here to meet. I once had a romantic encounter with the Third Master of the Ye family. Although you are not his daughter, if I say you are, then you are!"
Fen Lan brought Yingying and followed the three brothers of the Ye family into an inn. Fen Lan told Yingying that she would pretend to faint later and instructed Yingying to cry to attract their attention.
