While some are happy, others are sad. Aunt Zhang is so worried about her younger brother's imprisonment that she can't eat or drink.
She felt she had failed her deceased parents if she didn't rescue her younger brother in a day.
At this moment, Aunt Zhang was sitting in her courtyard, craning her neck to look outside.
That day, Zhu Datou and his men were having sex in her room, and that very night she had everything replaced.
If it weren't for the preciousness of the golden nanmu wood bed, she would have thrown the whole bed away as far as possible.
I felt disgusted just looking at her, let alone the fact that she was lying on that bed to continue sleeping.
For several days in a row, Zhu Datou did not step into her yard. She was afraid that Zhu Datou would forget her, and she was also afraid that Zhu Datou would remember the foolish things his brother had done and implicate her.
In short, these past few days have been tough. I haven't been eating or sleeping well, and I'm still worried. The bruises on my face are becoming more and more noticeable.

The maid stammered, "Aunt Lu said that the master can't stand hearing your brother's name lately, and asked you not to go looking for her these next few days."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhang was furious and wished she could rush out right now and tear that wretched maid's face to shreds.
If it weren't for her act of kindness outside the city that allowed someone to buy her, she would have been torn to pieces and boiled in a pot by those unruly people long ago!
How dare they yell at her like that? Don't they even know who's holding her indenture?
However, reason prevailed over her anger. Now was not the time to break off relations. She could not get close to the adults now and still had to rely on that lowly maid to get her brother out.
Once her brother gets out, she'll teach that wretched servant a lesson!
Aunt Zhang withdrew her anger and said calmly, "I understand. You may leave."
Having received the order, the maidservant bowed and withdrew, leaving only Aunt Zhang and her personal maidservant in the room.
Aunt Zhang said, "Go and fetch Steward Zhang. Tell him I have something important to discuss with him."
She had to cover up that nausea with something. Just thinking about those unspeakable secrets gave her a sense of satisfaction, as if she had gotten revenge on Zhu Datou!
