"But Mother has always been good to you and has never mentioned divorcing you. This shows that she has no intention of climbing higher."
"You little schemer. Come on, wash up and go to sleep."
In Shopkeeper Lu's courtyard, people were still awake, excited about their new home.
There was also today's big news that made her excited. How could she fall asleep now?
"Xin'er, you don't know, when Mother finds out that the son of that old man is the magistrate, my legs went weak."
"Mother, you don't need to be like this. Master said that even the Emperor is a mortal like us, just with a different official rank. You don't need to take it to heart."
"Master has someone to protect her; she won't be bullied. Did you see what happened today? The Jiang family wanted to bully your master. If it weren't for Lord Wang and Mayor Qian, things wouldn't have ended well today."
