With Lu Jingming’s support, Hexiang truthfully recounted the events of that year. Using knocks and gestures, she revealed everything that had happened. Hexiang explained that the thug, A’tai, had made a mistake and immediately reported to Wang Danling in a panic. At the time, Danling even laughed and said it didn’t matter—she could use the incident to stir up more trouble.

As a result, Danling deliberately sowed discord between Lu Qingqing and Shen Jiangli, eventually leading to Shen Jiangli being driven out of the household. After hearing Hexiang’s account, Lu Qingqing realized that she had misunderstood Shen Jiangli all these years and had even taken a villain for a friend. Heartbroken, she angrily called Danling a treacherous scoundrel. Danling glared fiercely at Shen Jiangli, warning her that they would meet again.

Although Lu Jingming was present, he refused to bring Danling to see the matriarch. Shen Jiangli was a bit angry, shot a glare at Lu Jingming, and walked away coldly. Filled with regret, Lu Qingqing asked Lu Jingming to take good care of Shen Jiangli, saying that it was their fault back then—they should never have banished her to guard the ancestral tomb without finding out the truth.

Lu Jingming immediately followed Shen Jiangli outside to comfort her, telling her not to worry. After all, Wang Danling was the only daughter of the First House, had a father with distinguished military service, and came from a wealthy maternal family. Naturally, they wouldn’t let their daughter be thrown into prison. The previous incident when she prayed for the Lu family patriarch’s recovery was an example—without solid evidence, they couldn’t act rashly.

What Lu Jingming said was very reasonable, and Shen Jiangli silently acknowledged her earlier impulsiveness. Shen Qilan, the youngest daughter of the Shen family, had grown into a fine young woman. Her mother was anxious to find her a good match. Upon learning that the Lu family would soon be holding a birthday banquet, she suggested that the Shen family’s eldest master bring Shen Qilan along. To help her appear more presentable, she even provided extra silver.

Although Shen Qilan was just a young woman, she didn’t aspire to marry into wealth and power. Seeing the caged bird at home unhappy, she took the initiative to open the cage and set it free. When she went out and saw a man bullying a respectable woman on the street, she wanted to intervene, but her maid quickly stopped her, telling her not to meddle. While shopping for jewelry, Shen Qilan ran into Danling.

Danling disliked Shen Jiangli and naturally treated her sister with the same disdain. Despite Shen Qilan’s warm attempt to befriend her, Danling remained indifferent and even handed her a hairpin that Shen Qilan thought was exquisite, treating her like a servant she was trying to get rid of. Shen Qilan had thought that her sister must be enjoying great fortune after marrying into the Lu family, but this encounter with her sister-in-law showed otherwise—their relationship was clearly strained.

Shen Qilan was overjoyed when she visited the Lu residence and saw her sister. She didn’t mention having just seen Danling. It happened to be the matriarch’s birthday banquet, and Shen Jiangli’s father also attended. Shen Jiangli still smiled when she saw her sister, but upon seeing her father, she felt a chill in her heart. She remembered how she had been banished to guard the tomb for five years, and her natal family never once came to see her.

When her father complained that she hadn’t returned to visit after coming back to the Lu family, Shen Jiangli retorted directly, saying she had thought he considered this daughter already dead.
