Discussing national affairs is something people only do in private whispers, and no one, not Shopkeeper Lin or anyone else, dares to publicly criticize the imperial court.
As for Wufu, although she isn't exactly afraid, she must acknowledge that in an era where Imperial Power is supreme, no matter how capable she is, she cannot surpass its exalted status. After all, she is just one person, a young woman at that.
Now, living a peaceful and stable life isn't so bad.
"Wufu?"
Two people entered the shop, and Wufu looked up to see it was her younger Uncle Zhou Xueli and his newly-wedded wife.
Wufu stood up as Shopkeeper Lin asked curiously, "Miss, who might these be?"
"They're my Uncle and Aunt. Shopkeeper Lin, you've just returned, why don't you rest for a bit? Jin Xi here will suffice." Wufu said.
Shopkeeper Lin didn't stand on ceremony and, after instructing Jin Xi to take good care of the guests, retired to the back room.
