Zhou Xueli stepped out of the main room and returned to his small residence, where Lady Liang stood up, holding her needlework frame.
"Be careful with your eyes, you're also at a large month, rest more, don't overexert yourself," Zhou Xueli urged as he helped her sit down.
Lady Liang smiled and said, "It's just a bit of needlework, what harm could it do? Has mother gone to rest?"
Zhou Xueli shook his head and replied, "With this incident, how could she possibly rest easy?"
"So..."
"She says she won't interfere," Zhou Xueli said gravely.
Lady Liang asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened? I just asked Yongyong, and he said it was Wufu who had people catch them."
Zhou Xueli scoffed, "Isn't it all because my elder sister-in-law's greed has brought disaster?" He then recounted everything Zhou Xiuer had told him.
Lady Liang gasped, saying, "So you're saying, it really was Wufu who designed the trap, deliberately luring my elder sister-in-law to step into it?"
