Bai Zepei did not press Bai Ruozhu any further, he only urged Ruozhu and his sister-in-law to be careful on their way.
Bai Ruozhu picked up Dengdeng, and followed Wan Caiyue to the Entrance of the Town to find a Donkey Cart. Once they boarded the cart, Bai Ruozhu finally caught her breath and asked: "Sister-in-law, who brought the news and what else did they say?"
Wan Caiyue's brows were tightly knitted, revealing her anxiety.
"It was Zhao Ludan who brought the news on behalf of Aunt Deshun, saying the old mansion is in a mess and there's no one managing things. The old lady is just crying, and Third Master is lying on the bed without uttering a word. The doctor was called by the neighbors." Wan Caiyue was obviously worried, hence she spoke faster than usual.
Bai Ruozhu sneered, "So the old lady only knows how to cry now, what was she doing before this? If she hadn't been so selfish, caring more about her granddaughter, perhaps Ruolan wouldn't have tried to hang herself."
