Su Xiaowan did not know these things and, after sending off Guan Tong and the others, she had been restless for the past few days, and she also felt a bit of insuppressible melancholy for reasons she could not fathom.
Because she was preoccupied with thoughts of her Great Uncle's health, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was not celebrated well at home. Aside from Han Dongchen, who needed to make an appearance, none of the other family members went.
Moreover, the atmosphere at home had not been particularly good these past few days. Due to Su Xiaowan not being seen at the Lantern Festival party, Liu Ni and Zhao Aifen came over the following day, of course, without Wang XiuZhi, who increasingly preferred not to venture out.
Liu Ni and her companions were considerate, and upon entering, they immediately noticed the somber mood in the house, and on Su Xiaowan's ordinarily smiling face, now hung a shadow of gloom.
