However, the Hu family were just merchants. They had to be on good terms with County Magistrate Sun in order to survive.
Madam Hu's elder brother was Hu Yan. Hu Yan doted on his only sister, but ever since Madam Hu married County Magistrate Sun, she was neglected.
Ye Muyu was a meticulous person. She noticed that when she met Madam Hu that day, her mental state was not bad, which meant that she had not been mistreated in material terms.

Most people would not have a small kitchen in their backyard unless the courtyard was huge. However, it was obvious that County Magistrate Sun's rear courtyard was definitely not that big.
The servants did not find it strange. It meant that in this rear courtyard, there were other small courtyards that had their own small kitchen.
