The Shu family's second branch had been suppressed by the main branch for many years, but now the eldest legitimate son and daughter, as well as the bastard, were all present, and they subtly seemed to be making plans to take charge of the household.
Shu Feng looked up in the direction of the Shu family. After a long moment he said to Mrs. Liu, "I understand, let's go gather firewood first."
"Alright." Mrs. Liu didn't need to do much; she simply stated a fact.
However, after the two of them returned with the firewood, the young master also came out. His face no longer showed the previous anger, and the Shu family all calmly ate, washed, and went to bed.
But the next day, when they found out that Madam Hou and the Sixth Young Lady hadn't gone to work in the fields as usual, their speculations grew even more.
Meanwhile, Shu Yu, who had spent a comfortable night at home, woke up early and sneezed twice, feeling as if someone was talking about her.
