Blossoms in Adversity (2024) C Drama Episode 3

The third wife, Xia Jin'e, had not yet come out of her role as a wife, and she ordered her servants to clean the house. Upon seeing this, Huazhi immediately arranged for her four maids to clean up, and started working on it herself. The old lady Lin Wan asked Xia Jin'e to count the things brought out of the house. Xia Jin'e suggested buying a few more servants. The skinny camels were bigger than horses. Lin Wan told her that today is different from the past, and they need to work together in the future and not to harm their parents' families. Finally, Lin Wan left Xia Jin'e alone and asked her to find out the thoughts of the official family. If God is really unkind, then she must find a reliable man as soon as possible, who can be hired as a bride-in-law to take charge of the family's affairs for the women and children.

Shen Qi wanted to ask about the Hua family at the dinner table, but was blocked before she could speak. Shen Qi's younger brother Shen Huan is loved by his father for being lively and active. Even though he has nothing to do all day long, it does not prevent him from being favored. Shen Qi asked her father to borrow money, but his father said that he stayed at home all day long, unlike Shen Huan who was wandering around, so he rejected his request. There were no beds in the house, so Huazhi spread clean straw on the ground around the charcoal basin for everyone to rest. Hua Ling, the third girl of the Hua family, couldn't stand the embarrassment in front of her and insisted on taking a bath, but unfortunately she fell into the water.

Gu Yanxi reported the results of the house raid to Qing Emperor Gu Chengtao. While drinking tea and laughing, Gu Chengtao lamented that he was the emperor, and whatever he did, no matter whether it was right or wrong, was beneficial to the world. After speaking, he did not forget to tell Gu Yanxi that he would rather kill the wrong person. Don't let it go. Outside the palace, Gu Yanxi met Gu Yangong, the king of Xian. Gu Yangong reminded Gu Yanxi that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Don't feel that you are special in an official's family and get carried away. The women and children of the Hua family were all crowded in the air-conditioned hall, unable to sleep. Everyone felt very uncomfortable with the sudden change. At this time, Uncle Zhong, who had been following the old man, came. He and the old man were forced to separate, and the rest of the male servants also ran away. Huazhi wanted him to come into the house with everyone, but the second lady thought it was inappropriate for him to be a man. While talking in the yard, Hua Zhi found that the inspectors of Qisusi were watching them nearby.

When Gu Yanxi returned to Prince Ling's Mansion, she saw Prince Ling's concubine Xiao waiting at the door of the mansion. He specially went to see his sister Shaoyao. Shaoyao was mentally ill and had been locked in the room by Prince Ling. Mrs. Xiao told him that although he was locked up, Prince Ling had been looking for famous doctors and no one in the house dared to neglect her. Gu Yanxi felt very distressed when she saw Shaoyao, but Shaoyao didn't recognize him. She was dealing with medicine on weekdays, and she would make some ointments and pills to play with in her spare time. When Huazhi entered the room, everyone was already asleep, so she fell asleep too. In the middle of the night, someone cried out, so Mrs. Hua's distant niece, Aunt Qin, got up and closed the door tightly. The charcoal fire was still burning. Hua Zhi woke up in a daze and found something was wrong. She quickly opened the door and called Uncle Zhong.

Gu Yanxi looked at the sleeping Shaoyao and remembered that when she was a child, Shaoyao was still calling her brother in her sleep. Gu Yanxi shook her hand and left the room. There was a lot of grass in the yard. At this time, Ling Wang Gu Yanxuan came. Gu Yanxi lost his mother in a fire ten years ago and his sister became mentally ill as a result. He could not forgive his father. But Gu Yanxuan didn't care. He believed that this was all caused by the suspicion of the emperor's brother Gu Chengtao. Gu Yanxi had been in the palace since he was a child, and Gu Chengtao locked her with him every day, which led to the estrangement between them. Having one more heir made Gu Chengtao more suspicious, so for Prince Ling, Xiao took the medicine to prevent her from having any more children, which made Gu Yanxuan very grateful.

Fortunately, Uncle Zhong rescued everyone in time, so that everyone could avoid gas poisoning. Aunt Qin cried out that she was not the one who closed the door, but that she was in Xia Jin'e's room. In order to protect her, Xia Jin'e and the second lady Qi Huilan had a big quarrel, which caused Lin Wan was very unhappy. Hua Zhi remembered what Hua Yi was saying to herself when they were on the boat. It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Don't do things that are beyond your ability. You must know what to do and what not to do. Think clearly before making a decision. Early the next morning, Shen Qi and two classmates came to visit Lin Wan's family and brought them clothes, blankets and food.
