Mrs. Wu was afraid that the old man was drunk and Yongning was a boy and could not take good care of Zhuzhu, so she simply let Zhuzhu stay for one more night.
Yongning was a little reluctant, but the boy from the Wu family was so happy that he held Zhuzhu's arm tightly.
This made Tai Yongning really want to snatch his sister away and run away. She was only a few years old, but he was already thinking about his precious sister...
The old man was originally unsure because he didn't know the situation in Kyoto and the struggles in the court. Now, after listening to Mr. Wu explaining everything to him one by one, his mind has become clearer.

Yongning was worried about something at home, so he went to ask the old soldier a few questions.
The old soldier said, "Everything is fine at home. Nothing's wrong. Maybe the old man has trouble sleeping, so he keeps wandering around in the middle of the night. We're worried he's cold, so we've tried to get him to go back several times."
"Now it seems that it's not that the old man can't sleep well, but that he's short of wine! If he had two taels of strong liquor every night, he would surely sleep so soundly!"
Everyone laughed at this, even Yongning felt relieved. He thought that when he had free time to go out again, he would buy two jars of good wine to send back to his grandfather.
There was no conversation that night. Perhaps the old man slept soundly, as he did not wake up until noon the next day.
Yongning couldn't wait, so he went to Wu's house first, thinking of sending his sister back at noon.
Similarly, when the family got up early and didn't see the old man come back, they were worried. Tai Jizu wanted to go to the city to pick him up, but Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue snatched the job away from him.
The two boys didn't even give their family a chance to refuse and just ran away! Little did they know that this run would bring them trouble!
