From an outsider's perspective, this family of three had nothing remarkable about them. The husband was honest and unassuming, almost without presence. The wife was adept in socializing and took great care of the elderly. Their daughter was bright and generous, an outstanding student at a well-known university.
What could possibly be wrong with such a family?
Mrs. Zheng nodded and said with a smile, "It's true!"
Xianjing said excitedly, "That's wonderful! I'm going to go up and see Great-aunt right now!"
Having said that, Xianjing rushed upstairs without delay.
Not long after, Xianjing came back downcast, "Great-aunt said she's very tired and wants to rest some more."
Mrs. Zheng smiled and said, "As long as you have this filial heart, it will be the same if you visit your great-aunt tomorrow."
Xianjing nodded.
At mealtime, Suyu didn't come down.
Mrs. Zheng instructed a servant to take the food up to Suyu.
Ni Yang stood up and said, "I'll go."
