"I understand, Mother."
Shumulu said a few more words, then left, as there was still a lot of work to be done outside.
She said she wanted to find a daughter-in-law, and she's seen a few that seem nice, but she wants to ask more questions!
Since her daughter was alright and it was someone else who was in trouble, she left with peace of mind.
As soon as Shumulu left, Tong Cheng'er slumped down again.
Rulan sighed, "Gege is as lucky as ever; they can make themselves suffer the consequences of their own actions."

There were quite a few questions, and she answered them one by one.
Following the explanation her mother had given to the two wives, she said, "Sister Shuyuan and Sister Yunyao had serious foot injuries, so they returned to the manor ahead of schedule. Sister Shuwan and Sister Shuyuan are very close sisters, so they went back together."
"I see!"
It was already afternoon when the banquet ended. After seeing everyone off, Tong Cheng'er couldn't wait to go back to her courtyard and lie down. She was too tired today and needed to rest.
Tong Cheng'er lay on the soft couch, reading a storybook in her hand. Ru Lan and Ru Xue stood beside her, one fanning her and the other feeding her fruit.
