She was certain that Su Jing must have other plans and decided to probe her further later. Today, she blamed herself for speaking too plainly.
The outspoken woman, along with a few others, busied themselves wiping tables, sweeping floors, and hauling out the trash. After they finished these tasks, Su Jing found new chores for them. By the time the ancestral hall closed, the women were so tired they could barely stand straight, let alone speak.
After they left, Su Jing and Aunt Zhang laughed heartily.
