Translator: 549690339

At the thought of it, she couldn't help but shed tearful regrets for her family.

"Ziwan, you must understand. Your brother and father have gone out to teach the person who mocked you a lesson. Starting from today, we will stay at home, everything according to your own pace. Mom can't live without you." Lady Mo, seeing the tear at Ziwan's eye corner, began to cry even more uncontrollably.

"My lady, Dr. Zhou is here." A sweat-drenched maidservant pulled in an old doctor.

"Doctor Zhou, quickly come and see my daughter." Lady Mo stood up and said in a flustered manner.

"My lady, please make way, let me have a look first." Doctor Zhou was quite famous in the town. Whenever anyone in the Mo family fell sick, they always sought him. At the moment, he had been hurriedly brought over from his clinic by the Mo family.

A young maidservant handed him a handkerchief. Doctor Zhou laid the handkerchief on Mo Ziwan's wrist and commenced to feel her pulse in silence. Mo Ziwan, who was still in a daze, was overwhelmed by sorrow at the thought of her former family. Hearing the sound of Lady Mo's sobbing in the room, she sighed in her heart and resigned to her fate.

"Miss has a weak constitution, and fell into a faint after falling into the water and catching a chill. I will prescribe some medicine. Have it brewed and let her drink it for three days. I will come back to adjust the treatment after three days." Doctor Zhou withdrew his hand and slowly said.

Mo Ziwan felt her headache getting better and tried to open her eyes. "Has Ziwan woken up?" Lady Mo asked tearfully, her tone filled with joy.

It might be best to feign ignorance, otherwise given Lady Mo's level of affection for her daughter and the Maidservants' familiarity with her, over time she might give herself away.

"Ah.... Ah.... Ah..." She opened her mouth to explain the situation, but found she could not make a sound, pathetic!

"Ziwan, Ziwan." Two handsome young men and a middle-aged man entered from behind the curtain.

"I heard Ziwan woke up?" The middle-aged man rushed excitedly to Mo Ziwan's side as soon as he entered.

Thankfully, the name of this girl was the same as hers. Mo Ziwan heaved a sigh of relief, as she would otherwise have had to spend a long time to adapt.

"Daughter, how are you feeling?" His tone was full of concern and worry. "Doctor Zhou is also here, do we know the condition of my daughter's illness?"

"Miss Mo is physically weak and has been hit by wind-chill when she fell into the water. She needs to rest and recuperate properly." Dr. Zhou told the patriarch of the Mo family about the earlier diagnosis. "I have already prescribed medicine for her."

When these people came in, Wan Yu knew from the memories in her head that the two young men were her elder brother Mo Qingfeng and her second brother Mo Qingyun. In her memories, these young brothers loved her very much, not only teaching her to read and write but also collecting various trinkets for her from time to time. In a sense, they were not only Mo Ziwan's brothers but also her playmates.

The gentle-looking middle-aged man next to them was the head of the Mo family and the Prime Minister of the country, a childhood playmate of the emperor.

"Hurry up and have the servant girls make the medicine." Chancellor Mo quickly instructed the maidservant standing by.

"Little sister, is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?" Mo Qingfeng asked quickly, noticing Mo Ziwan's anxious expression.

Mo Ziwan had learned sign language, and this was a good time to make use of it.

"Are you saying that the headache has caused you to forget many things?" Mo Qingyun was a bit anxious, worried that his sister might have forgotten about her brothers as well. "Do you still remember me?" His tone was somewhat urgent and expectant.

"What? Has she lost her memory? How could this happen, Dr. Zhou?" Chancellor Mo grabbed Doctor Zhou's sleeve in a flurry of panic.

"Let me take a look?" Dr. Zhou was surprised. How could she lose her memory if she hadn't injured her head when she fell into the water?

Mo Ziwan pointed to her forehead where there was a lump that hurt.

"I'm sorry for the intrusion, but may I check if you have any injuries on your head?" He had only concerned himself with feeling her pulse earlier and since Miss Mo's head was not bleeding, he hadn't thought of checking it for injuries.

"You should just let him check." When it came to Ziwan's life, Lady Mo wouldn't bother with formalities.

Mo Ziwan pointed out the spot on her head where the lump was to Doctor Zhou.

After examining the lump on her head carefully and even probing it with his fingers, Doctor Zhou explained, "It is likely that Miss Mo injured her head by hitting it against something hard at the bottom of the lake when she fell in. A head injury from a forceful impact could cause amnesia." It seemed that Doctor Zhou was indeed proficient at his trade, every explanation was pointed and logical.

"Will my daughter be able to recall her past?" Lady Mo asked nervously.

"Hard to say. Let's start by taking some medicine and see what happens." Doctor Zhou sighed.

"Little sister, do you remember who I am?" Mo Qingyun continued to press.

Mo Ziwan cracked a silent smile and nodded her head.

"Then, do you recognize anyone else in this room?" Mo Qingfeng asked anxiously as he watched her.

According to the memories in her mind, she knew most of the people in the room. Even those she didn't seem familiar with were probably people that the previous Mo Ziwan didn't like to interact with.

Using gestures, Mo Ziwan "told" everyone whom she recognized.

Seeing that she recognized all the family members, Chancellor Mo broke into joyous laughter, followed by her two personal maids, Xueyan, and Xueyuan. As for the rest, Ziwan deliberately ignored them.

"As long as there is no danger to her life, whether she remembers or not is not important." Chancellor Mo breathed a sigh of relief and put his mind at ease. "You girls have to take good care of Miss Mo and not let her catch any wind chill." He sternly instructed the maids in Ziwan's room.

The girls quickly gave their agreement.

"How is the eldest miss doing?" A dazzlingly beautiful woman swayed in from outside. Wearing her exquisite makeup, her eyes lit up when she saw Chancellor Mo, and then she ran to Ziwan's side with a pitiful look. "No major mishap, right?"

Lady Mo coldly blocked her way. "What, do you wish for something serious to happen to her?" The words could not have been more sharp-edged. The beautiful woman paused, then looked back innocently, "Sister, I was just worried about the eldest miss. There goes my mouth again, I upset you. Please be generous sister, and excuse my words." She rattled on breathlessly.

"Mother, don't be angry. Aunt is worried about little sister; she spoke out of turn because she was upset." A beautiful, young lady followed behind the woman and pleaded for her.Listening to the conversation between this mother and daughter, Ziwan understood. So these two were the mistress and her daughter in Mo Manor.

Not to mention the mother, but the daughter she bore was also out of the ordinary. A round pair of large eyes in an oval-shaped face, with two diagonal eyebrows. She wore a red butterfly jacket with a silver-white lotus skirt, accentuating her fair skin even more, a truly beautiful woman indeed.
