Aunt Qin confessed that Hua Jing instigated her to steal Hua Zhi's bellyband. In this way, the adulterer became Hua Zhi. Hua Zhi was confused, so she asked Aunt Qin to tell her the whole story. When Bao Xia heard this, she became anxious and took Aunt Qin to see the old lady. Aunt Qin cried and refused to go. Now that Shopkeeper Yang had taken control of her, she couldn't survive anyway, so she rushed out of the room and threw herself into a well to die. Fortunately, rescuers rescued her in time and fished her out. Hua Qin cried and hugged Aunt Qin. Bai Li also cried and ran forward to pull Aunt Qin and call her mother. Aunt Qin looked at Bai Li and her heart melted, so she gave up the idea of committing suicide. Huazhi did not pursue Aunt Qin's fault, and specifically asked her servants to block the news from the second lady.
Hua Zhi asked Aunt Qin carefully and found that she was being plotted, so she asked Aunt Qin to write a letter to Shopkeeper Yang, saying that she would elope with him with money. Shopkeeper Yang was obsessed with money and was caught while taking money. Huazhi threatened a little, and shopkeeper Yang confessed. Song Chengzu's family owned an aphrodisiac shop, and Hua Jing got the aphrodisiacs there. The laws of the Qing Dynasty prohibited selling, so Huazhi reported it to the government, and the government immediately closed down the Song family's drug store. Song Chengzu was furious when he learned that it was the Hua family who reported to the official. He went back and beat Hua Jing violently. Hua Jing's son watched his mother being beaten without saying a word, and Hua Jing hated Hua Zhi even more.
Hua Jing went to Lin Wan again, made a big fuss, and falsely accused Hua Zhi of misconduct. Lin Wan came in and was in poor health, so Hua Zhi did not report Aunt Qin's affairs to Lin Wan. Hua Jing did not care about this, so she He told Lin Wan everything, but he didn't mention his evil nature at all. Lin Wan knew Hua Zhi's character well. When Hua Jing saw this, she cursed Hua Yizheng and Lin Wan. Lin Wan was so angry that she vomited blood and fell ill. After seeing it, the doctor told Huazhi that Lin Wan's life had been exhausted and that medicine and stone had no effect. Shaoyao cried and apologized to Huazhi. She had exhausted all methods but still couldn't save her. On her deathbed, Lin Wan met Hua Zhi alone and handed her the Hua family's square seal. Hua Zhi cried and said that one day she would redeem her grandfather and them all and move them back to the Hua family's old house. Lin Wan felt sorry for the heavy burden on Huazhi's shoulders, but she really couldn't afford to accompany her anymore. Lin Wan passed away, and the Hua family was in mourning. Huazhi was in so much pain that she couldn't cry anymore. There were still a lot of things to do after her grandmother's death. The most important thing was that she wanted revenge.
At night, Shaoyao sat on the steps and cried. Her voice attracted the second lady. Seeing that her fingers were cold, the second lady felt distressed and hurriedly covered Shaoyao with her cloak. Shaoyao blamed himself for not healing Lin Wan. In the mourning hall, everyone stood there in mourning clothes, with tears streaming down their faces. Aunt Qin also came, crying and apologizing to Lin Wan. Shen Qi wanted to give Lin Wan a funeral and borrowed a memorial service from the accounting office. When Shen's father learned about it, he was furious and wanted Shen Qi to cut ties with the Hua family. Shen Qi refused and broke with Shen's father.
Huazhi arranged Lin Wan's funeral in every detail, but there were no guests at the funeral. When Yingchun came out of the mourning hall, she was told that Shen Qi was here. Shen Qi walked to the Hua Mansion step by step with the sacrificial gift. After the ceremony, he told Hua Zhi that before the Hua family was confiscated, he never thought that the world could be so thin and human beings could be so dirty.
The Queen Mother came to Lin Wan's funeral in person, and everyone from the Hua family came out to greet her. The Queen Mother walked into the mourning hall and called Sister Wan with a choked voice. She hadn't seen her for many years, and this was how it was to see her again.
