Lady Li's gaze was somewhat evasive, not daring to look at her mother-in-law, "Yes, with the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, Mother gave me some Silver Coin, and I thought of going to the county to see if I can buy some things to bring back."
Zhulan didn't make a sound, but it was obvious Lady Li was hiding something. It wasn't until Lady Li could no longer bear it that Zhulan spoke up, "Just as well. When you go, see if there's any honey, and if there is, buy a couple of pounds for Mother. Also, remember to come back early."
Lady Li, whose heart had been in her throat, felt a sense of relief, yet also a bit guilty for betraying her mother-in-law's trust. She wanted to speak up several times but held back. It wasn't the right time. She bowed her head and accepted the Silver that her mother-in-law handed her, "I will come back as soon as possible without delay."
