CHAPTER 4 - THE INVASION OF DREAMS (PART TWO)
Yun Qingqiao shivered as the sinister laughter of the girls surrounded her. "Am I dreaming? How can a modern person like me wear ancient clothes and play in the snow with others? Why are there so many sisters and even a brother? Was that woman earlier my mother? She doesn't look like my mom at all," she muttered.
Her head ached, her body cold and in pain. The dream continued to unfold—
The girls grabbed her by the collar, stuffing snow down her clothes. At first, the cold snow melted upon contact with her skin, wetting her clothing. But as they continued to fill her clothes with more snow, Yun Qingqiao found herself growing colder and colder. It wasn't until she was shivering and her skin turned purple that the girls, her so-called sisters, finally let go of her.

"What does it matter if you're the legitimate daughter? You still get bullied by us every day. Blame your useless mother!" One of the sisters sneered.
Yun Qingqiao tried to call for her brother, but her mouth wouldn't open. The harder she tried, the more it felt like her lips were sewn shut.
The scene changed. In her dream, Yun Qingqiao was lying in an antiquely furnished, warm room.
"Madam, the young lady is awake!" A maid announced.
A beautiful woman, obviously worried, quickly entered the room. "Qiao, my poor child, you've been unconscious for seven days."
"Mother, my sisters bullied me again. They stuffed snow in my clothes, claiming it would whiten my skin. They lied; it made me so cold!" Yun Qingqiao's face had thinned, starkly contrasting her once-plump appearance.
Tears began to well up in the beautiful woman's eyes.
The scene shifted again. This time, it was the Lunar New Year, and an older woman sat on a high platform distributing red envelopes. The sisters who had bullied Yun Qingqiao each received a red envelope. Inside was a golden, hollowed-out monkey charm.

Yun Qingqiao wanted one, too, so she ran up to the platform. "Grandmother, Qiao wants a monkey charm too."
The elderly woman sneered, "Your mother comes from a high-class family; you can have anything you want. Why would you desire something from an old woman like me?"
Laughter erupted from the crowd, malicious and mocking, as they circled Yun Qingqiao. The sisters flaunted their golden monkey charms menacingly. The scene terrified her, but she tried to comfort herself, "This is just a dream." Yet it all felt real.
She was just on a vacation that had gone awry due to an avalanche. How could she end up having such strange dreams?
The dream shifted again. Her mother had severe abdominal pain, bleeding profusely. Her father was not home. Yun Ruibo, her brother, gripped her hand tightly and turned to leave, determined to find a doctor.
But before they could reach the inner room, they heard the elderly woman laughing, "Finally, Ye's time has come. She should be gone; less of an eyesore for me."
A woman by her side agreed, "You're right, madam. Not only is the baby gone, but she'll probably die."
Hearing the heartless laughter, Yun Ruibo's grip on Yun Qingqiao tightened. They turned around and resolved to find a doctor and save their mother.
The dream, so vivid and cruel, lingered in her mind as she wrestled with its terrible reality.
