章 158: Chapter 158 Hoarding Grain_1

Zhou Laodi couldn't bear to dash his wife's hopes, nor did he want her to harbor too many illusions, "It's been so many years, we might not even be in Pingzhou."

To sell oneself into servitude meant life and death were in the hands of the master—no one knew what the situation would be.

Lady Zhao thought she would spend her whole life without ever leaving Zhou Family Village, but now she had the chance to go to Pingzhou. There was no hope in the past, but now that there was hope, it was worth celebrating, "I know, I know all of it."

Zhou Laodi looked at his wife's features and grew worried again. Fortunately, he didn't have to take part in the imperial examinations, and his wife didn't have to entertain, so it was safe for her to remain in the inner courtyard. With this thought, the little worry in his heart disappeared.
