Ye Xinyi hadn't seen Duke An for a long time. Today's meeting left her feeling guilty and uncertain.
This grandfather, who had always been distant towards her, had confined her maternal aunt due to her and her aunt's repeated schemes against Madam Yin and Ye Xinyan, and had also ignored her.
Now, having fallen into such a predicament, she returned to her mother's family with no other path, unaware of what awaited her.
When she heard Duke An allow her to stay at the mansion, still living in her original courtyard, her heart finally settled. She quickly kowtowed, tearfully saying, "Thank you, grandfather, for taking me in. Your granddaughter has been unfilial and has caused trouble for you and grandmother."
Duke An responded noncommittally with a "Hm." No matter how poorly Ye Xinyi was doing, she was still his granddaughter, a daughter married out from the Duke's Mansion. At this moment, what else could he do but take her in properly?
