Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhu Shen had returned Madam Wu her bundle but she had been in such a hurry to return home and had left the bundle by the side of the road. Madam Wu was relieved to see that the whole family was still there and that no one had been kidnapped. She could not help but sigh with relief. With a hand over her chest, she murmured, "That's good, that's good..."
Qi Yuanxiu scratched his head when he saw the mud stains on his mother's trouser legs and clothes.
After Madam Wu entered the house, she rested for a while before heading into the inner room to change her clothes. When she came out, she found the entire family waiting for her with confused eyes to explain. Madam Wu did not say anything. She sat down, picked up her bowl, and began to devour her food.
After eating.
Madam Wu retired into the inner room to sleep.
Her actions left the entire family in the dark.
