Bab 137: Chapter 137: The Unpleasant One Arrives

Due to Zhou Xueli's wedding, the Old Zhou family was brimming with joy and bustling with excitement that day, with large red "happiness" characters posted everywhere, and even the main gate was adorned with festive couplets; the faces of those who came to the banquet or to help out were all smiling.

Old Lady Zhou also had a beaming smile, dressed in festive attire, sitting in the main room, entertaining and joking with the guests.

Madam Lu was also sitting inside, her reason being a hand injury that prevented her from doing any heavy work. As for how she got injured, the official story given to outsiders was that she had accidentally slipped and twisted her finger while going out to the lavatory at night.

This excuse was only believed by the visiting relatives, as the neighbors knew all too well about the drama that had occurred, and they were privately snickering about it.
