Chapter 142 looks somewhat familiar.

Qi Jinlan snorted coldly: "They're nothing but clowns, daring to covet Xiyao."
[Awesome!]
“Liang Xiaozhe, the eldest son of the Liang family?” He made a mental note of Liang Xiaozhe.
Ye Yaoyao blinked and nodded in agreement: "Cousin Qi, then you'd better work harder and not let someone else take my sister away from me."
Qi Jinlan looked at her with a firm expression, "Don't worry, Yaoyao, my feelings for Xiyao are as clear as day."
"That's for the best. I support you now. If you ever make my sister suffer any injustice in the future, my brothers and I will take her away and make sure you never find her again."
"Don't worry, that's something that will never happen," Qi Jinlan confidently promised, striding towards Ye Xiyao.
If the Emperor hadn't been in a bad mood at the last palace banquet, the Qi family would have already requested an imperial decree to grant them a marriage.
He loves his older sister the most, and I hope they can get together smoothly in the future.
Ye Yaoyao believed in Qi Jinlan. Ever since she learned about her background, Ye Xiyao's marriage has become difficult.
The Qi family is the Empress Dowager's maternal clan, and the Emperor will definitely interfere in Qi Jinlan's marriage. If the Emperor already knows that she is the daughter of the Ye family, the Liu family will also be in danger.
[Host, you should worry about yourself first.]
[What's there to be afraid of? The handsome man must have been prepared to return to the capital. Hiding when trouble is inevitable.]
Lu Yuanyou kept talking to Ye Xiyao:
"Third Miss, I think this doll suits you very well. How about I buy it and give it to you?" Lu Yuanyou said with a fawning expression.
Ye Xiyao stopped and frowned, saying, "Young Master Lu, there's no need for that. You're here to take the imperial examination. I advise you to spend more time studying."
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuanyou looked at her with even more affection, "You encouraged me in the same way in your letter, so I knew you hadn't forgotten."
Ye Xiyao asked in confusion, "What letter? Young Master Lu, I haven't written you any letter."
“Yes, I wrote it two years ago.” Lu Yuanyou touched his chest. “Sigh! I forgot to bring it with me today. You’re too busy, you probably forgot. I’ll bring it to you next time.”
Ye Xiyao assumed this was his excuse for seeing her next time, and impatiently emphasized again:
“Young Master Lu, I’ll say it again, you’ve mistaken me for someone else. I really have never seen you before.”
When Lu Yuanyou heard Ye Xiyao say she didn't know him again, he panicked and moved very close to her. Ye Xiyao stepped back in alarm.
"Have you forgotten? When I went to the Ye family, you..."
Seeing this, Qi Jinlan quickly stepped forward and stood in front of Ye Xiyao.
“Young Master Lu, Xiyao has already made herself very clear. Please stop bothering her.” Qi Jinlan’s tone was icy.
Lu Yuanyou's face stiffened, and he said indignantly, "Young Master Qi, this is a matter between me and the Third Miss. What does it have to do with you?"
Qi Jinlan sneered: "Xiyao's affairs are my affairs. If you still don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being impolite."
Seeing Qi Jinlan's tough attitude and the air of a superior, and knowing that he still had to take the imperial examination, Lu Yuanyou, though unwilling, dared not say anything more and left dejectedly once again.
Fortunately, although the shop was crowded, everyone was picking out their favorite dolls.
Ye Xiyao looked at Qi Jinlan and said, "Thank you, Cousin Qi."
Qi Jinlan looked at her gently, "Xiyao, you don't need to be polite with me. I won't let anyone bully you."
No matter how busy you are in the future, don't send Fuya away. Keep her by your side at all times to protect you, okay?
A blush rose on Ye Xiyao's face, and she nodded gently.
"I don't know why, but Lu Yuanyou keeps saying that he has met me before?"
Ye Xiyao thought of her younger sister's words, striving for a better life for a woman. She had indeed never seen him two years ago. Could there really be some hidden story?
"Xiyao, Xiyao, what are you thinking about?"
"Lu Yuanyou".
Upon hearing the name, Qi Jinlan's face darkened; this person needed to be dealt with as soon as possible.
Liu Yunshu watched the two of them from the side. Her daughter was becoming more and more capable, and many noble ladies came over to inquire about her.
The Qi family approves of the two being together, but considering their youngest daughter's background, their marriage may face some twists and turns.
The new shop opened, and everyone celebrated with lunch at Zuixianglou.
Liu Yunshu knew that her children were looking for herbs, so she went home first. There, she was told by Zhang Mama that Ye Mian was looking for her and her children.
Ye Mian sent someone to ask, saying that I had not returned yet.
At Zuixianglou, a few people were still talking.
"If there's news about the Night-Blooming Vine, then there's bound to be news about the Phoenix Tail Flower as well."
"I don't know where that scholar surnamed Liu lives."
Tomorrow is the day they will hold their poetry gathering. I have news about Ye Youteng, and I believe Fengweihua will also be there.
"Surname Liu?" Ye Yaoyao blinked.
[I happen to know someone surnamed Liu, could it be such a coincidence?]
[Host, Liu Tiansheng comes from Fugui Town.]
Ye Li'an looked at Ye Yaoyao, "Little sister, do you know a scholar surnamed Liu?"
"Yes, not long ago I rescued a scholar surnamed Liu who was here to take the imperial examination. His ancestral home is Fugui Town."
Upon hearing this, Xin Chuli immediately became excited: "Sister Yaoyao, this person is most likely the one you've met before."
"Then I'll go to Grandpa's and ask him."
After Ye Yaoyao finished speaking, she hurriedly walked towards Doctor Han.
"Sister Yaoyao, I want to go too."
Xin Chuli was very curious about what the person she couldn't wait for was like, so she followed closely behind.
When Ye Yaoyao arrived, it was not yet noon. Doctor Han was resting with his eyes closed on a recliner under a tree in the courtyard.
As Wu Feng sorted through the medicinal herbs, he sang a song. When he saw Ye Yaoyao, he greeted her with a smile.
"Miss Ye has arrived."
Doctor Han opened his eyes and sat up.
"grandfather."
"Why is Yaoyao here at this time?"
"I'm here to see Liu Tiansheng."
"He went to deliver medicine to the people in the surrounding area."
"He's not here again. It seems to be him." Xin Chuli sighed.
"Him? What's wrong with him?"
Doctor Han looked puzzled, and Xin Chuli told him about what happened yesterday.
"Oh! You're really lucky, he's the one you've been waiting for."
"Grandpa, Liu Tiansheng painted a picture, which happens to be the Night Vine we found in the book."
"What a coincidence!" Doctor Han was also surprised.
Knowing that he was here, Ye Yaoyao wasn't in a hurry. The three of them chatted while waiting for Liu Tiansheng to return.
"Miracle doctor, I'm back."
Ye Yaoyao and Xin Chuli looked over upon hearing the sound.
Liu Tiansheng's beige skin was flushed from the scorching sun after returning from outside, and his eyes, beneath his slender eyebrows, were clear and bright, like a spring.
His features were handsome and refined, with a high nose bridge and slightly upturned lips; together, he was truly a handsome young man.
[The last time I saw him, his face was all dirty, and I couldn't see his features clearly. He looks familiar now! Where have I seen him before?]
"Miss Ye, you've arrived." Liu Tiansheng was overjoyed to see his savior.
"Scholar, I've finally met you."
"Girl, do you know me?" Liu Tiansheng looked at Xin Chuli with a puzzled expression.
“Yesterday you took someone to the clinic and then disappeared. I waited for you at the stall all afternoon and even helped you sell all your paintings.”
