The carriage arrived in front of the Old Zhou family's house, and Zhou Xiuer hesitated to get out, afraid of grandma's scolding and not knowing how to explain what happened to her parents.
"Miss Zhou, please get out," said Purple Jade, who had already alighted and was holding back the carriage curtain.
Zhou Xiuer didn't move, but Zhou Eryong nimbly jumped out of the carriage and ran straight into the house, crying and shouting for Old Lady Zhou as he went.
Old Lady Zhou was sewing when she heard her grandson's loud crying, her heart skipped a beat, and the needle pricked her finger, drawing a bead of blood.
"Grandma, grandma."
Old Lady Zhou frowned as she saw Yongyong run in.
"Grandma, dad and mom were taken away by the Yamen Runners. Auntie and Wufu had them arrested, they're bad women," Yongyong sobbed into Old Lady Zhou's arms as he complained.
Old Lady Zhou's body swayed, and her head buzzed, she instinctively placed her hand on the kang bed.
