Zhulan climbed into the carriage, closed her eyes, and thought about the land in Pinggang, and the potential returns on her investment, which lifted her mood a bit.
When she returned home, Yang Zhumu asked, "You went out with your brother-in-law, how come you're back by yourself?"
Zhulan, unfastening her cape, said, "Someone invited Zhou Shuren to a banquet at the restaurant, big brother, shouldn't father and mother be setting out soon?"
Yang Zhumu counted the days, "It's been ten days since we received the letter, I reckon they'll be on their way soon."
