After dinner, today it was Zhao's turn to wash the dishes. Ever since Lady Dong joined the family, Zhao and Lady Dong have been taking turns washing dishes while Xue Han helps wash the vegetables. Lady Li is in charge of just cooking now.
If Lady Dong hadn't come, Lady Li, Zhao, and Xue Han would have always worked together. Now that there's an additional person, Zhulan arranged their chores well to avoid the buildup of petty conflicts.
Sometimes Zhulan would also help in the kitchen, usually either with starting the fire or washing vegetables.
On his way back, Zhou Shuren had already instructed Rongchuan and Mingyun with everything necessary, and they went to the Academy together. There was nothing to worry about. After eating, Zhou Shuren went back to his room and waited for Zhulan to come back and said, "Bring out the deeds for the shop. I'll deal with selling the shop tomorrow."
