After leaving the main courtyard, her brother sent her to the household of an official, and she became the official's daughter.
What she found strange was that the official seemed to truly believe she was his daughter. Once she became the daughter of the official's household, she seldom saw her brother again.
During one of her brother's visits, her foster father called him Daoist Taiping, which was a peculiar title. Her brother's every word and action were unlike those of the past.
So, she called out her brother's name, Huang Chao.
But her brother seemed to have forgotten this name, saying he was called Zhang Sheng.
She talked to her brother about the past, but he did not remember it, not the Directorate of Music, not their deceased mother, not the Huang family.
But her brother remembered her.
She thought her brother was just lying to deceive her, yet she could tell that he truly had forgotten.
