In the evening, Lady Li prepared a sumptuous meal. The hunter's family never lacked game, especially during the autumn harvest season, which was the fattest time of the year for wild animals. Lady Li had purchased two rabbits and cooked a big pot of rabbit meat.
Zhulan asked Lady Li to deliver a bowl to the Liu family.
Zhang Sanni was extremely nervous. She did not want to expose her own lies. Fortunately, upon seeing her, Lady Li acted as if she didn't recognize her, which allowed Zhang Sanni to relax. After giving it some thought, she understood it must have been Zhou Yang's instruction.
She had long noticed that the Zhou family didn't like trouble and certainly wouldn't take the initiative to stir up any. Zhang Sanni felt completely at ease.
After the Liu family had their dinner, Zhulan, carrying an umbrella, went with Zhou Shuren to the Liu family's main house.
Old man Liu was smoking his pipe, while Lady Lauzhang was sewing soles of shoes.
