38 Chapter 38 - What kind of sorcery did the fourth brother use? _1

...

Standing before Wang Shouzhe is a middle-aged woman, her attire meticulously refined. Her hair adorned with a pearl hairpin, hands wearing jade bracelets, feet donned in High-Stepping Cloud Boots, and a lavishly appointed multi-colored cloud-patterned silk dress present her as a distinguished matriarch of urban nobility.

Furthermore, she had taken great care to groom herself prior to the visit. Her face dusted with powder, lips touched with a hint of crimson. She hardly resembles a woman in her forties but more of a mature beauty in her late twenties. Her profound dedication to self-care is evident. It appears her elder brother-in-law Wang Shouxin dotes on her, tending to her whims.

Her eyes are slightly red, clearly an indication that she had been crying not too long ago.

Notably, she was carrying a large bamboo basket, its contents concealed beneath a red cloth.
