Liu Mang, despite his reluctance to drink, was coerced by Yun Rou to down a big bowl of thick soup.
Only after Liu Mang drank it did Yun Rou finally let him off the hook, satisfied at last.
Li Dapang, having eaten and drunk his fill, kept thinking about Widow Li that Liu Mang had mentioned earlier. He urged Liu Mang, "Bro, it's getting late and I'm feeling a bit sleepy. Aren't you going to take me to where I'm staying tonight?"
Liu Mang replied, "What's the rush? It's not like Widow Li is going anywhere."
Yun Rou, with a laugh, said, "It would be good if you could take Little Li to Sister Li's place. It's the perfect time for me to take a few daughters-in-law to the pond at the foot of the mountain for a bath."
Having Yun Rou herself ask, what could Liu Mang do but agree and take Li Dapang out with him?
