Lady Du's worried look was not lost on Cai Wei. She played with the ends of her hair that hung down over her chest and reassured her mother with a dismissive snort, "Mother, they're nothing more than mere troublemakers. You don't need to be afraid. I have plans to put an end to their schemes."
As she spoke, the carriage came to a stop. Cai Wei lifted the carriage curtain. In front of her was her family's short and dilapidated home, a sparse fence wall, and the towering poplar tree by the front door.
Under the tree, three small figures anxiously searched the surroundings.
On seeing the people in the carriage, the little figures ran towards them joyfully.
"Mother——"
"Older sister——"
The sweet calls sounded like a warm gentle breeze, bringing an unexplainable pleasure to the listener's ear. Smiling, Cai Wei opened her arms cheerfully.
"Don't run; be careful with the eggs!" Lady Du sitting in front of Cai Wei, cried out anxiously.
