Towards someone like Dier, other than feeling grateful, she
admired her. She felt that this mysterious sister-in-law wasn’t cold and

Dier had outstanding medical prowess and loved researching
plants. The plants she grew not only had medicinal value but also possessed poison and she could communicate with them. Among them, there was many which could not be found in Great Yan. For example, datura flowers and poppies.

Moreover she didn’t want her daughter to have to worry about being brought back home to the spirit realm.

Was it not because of Yi Ping, Old General Mu and Ying Yi would definitely not have died from a disease.
Zi You made a pledge in her heart that she would for sure master all of her mother’s medicinal technique. Luckily for her, Dier left many precious copies of medicinal books for her. Moreover, they were all written in cryptic that only Zi You could understand.
Currently, Zi You did not know that she possessed spiritual powers. However Old General Mu realized it and after thinking about it and discussing with Ying Yi, they decided to reveal the truth about Zi You’s spiritual power to her.

Hearing her grandfather and second uncle describing her lineage, Zi You was not shaken, instead she was ecstatic.
Zi You always knew that her mother was not simple. From the day she taught Zi You medicine, Zi You knew that her mother was different from the women of Great Yan.
