But this pleasure was gone when she returned to the manor.
Qiao Meipan had come.
With Sun Junyan squatting in the Sky Prison of the Capital City, the Sun Family in the big prison of the County Town, and Qiao Qinghe lying unconscious in the manor, she had nowhere to go and had returned to the old Qiao Family courtyard in Anping Village.
The Qiao Family used to be numerous, and the place would always be buzzing with noise during the New Year, but now she was the only one left in the entire courtyard.
Fortunately, there were still some grains left at home, and she had some silver that Sun Junyan had given her before, so she wouldn't starve.
However, even so, she had suffered a lot. She had never labored in the fields before; she only did light housework. Now that she was the only one left, whether it was carrying water or gathering firewood, milling flour or cleaning the courtyard, she had to do it all by herself.
