Daji followed with his head bowed and hands hanging down.
Ms. Liu stopped in her tracks and, turning her head, said, "Let them be, there's no need to stop them harshly. As for County Magistrate Fu, there's no need to bother with him."
Daji complied.
Ms. Liu faced forward again and spoke softly, "What old acquaintance? Out of sight, out of mind. Besides, Qi'er has never had any dealings with him."
There was no need to take it too hard.
Despite saying this, both of the Bai family's grandmother and grandson were distressed because County Magistrate Fu mentioned Bai Qi; Ms. Liu kept her sorrow in her heart, but Bai Shanbao couldn't help crying at night.
