Bab 192: Chapter 192: Lady Li Cried_1

Zhou Shuren picked up the thread that hadn't been properly divided, and despite his large palms, his fingers were nimble, and he divided the thread at a good pace. "Didn't say much, mainly just a visitation. The gifts are outside, I glanced over them, they're all bought in the county, none of them particularly expensive."

Zhulan pressed down Zhou Shuren's hand to indicate that they had enough thread, while saying, "As long as they weren't prepared beforehand, it's all good."

If they were prepared in advance, it would imply they came with intent, but a spontaneous decision meant that their family was an afterthought. The gifts weren't expensive, and their family had merely caught Shi Qing's eye; it wasn't to the point of calculating yet.

Zhulan then asked, "Did they mention anything about the family next door?"

"No, not a word about looking after them or anything like that."
