"Alright, Yunjing, then you and your husband may settle in, and I'll go tidy up the room for you both right now," said Su Yunjin's mother.
Since Su Yunjin's marriage, her room had been left unoccupied, collecting dust and miscellaneous items. It required cleaning before anyone could live there.
Su Yunjin declined her mother's offer to help clean, "Mother, you go and attend to the other matters with father. I can tidy up the room myself."
"Little sister, let me help you clean up," Su Ningxiu volunteered to assist Su Yunjin, but she also declined Su Ningxiu's offer.
"Ningxiu, you were bound in the firewood shed for a whole day, and you haven't eaten anything for a day as well. You must be feeling unwell now. You'd better go back to your room and rest," she insisted.
Su Yunjin prevented them from helping, and neither Mrs. Shen nor Su Ningxiu insisted further. Su Yunjin and Gu Ya, the married couple, returned to their room, where Gu Ya started surveying the surroundings.
