Gu Jinli said, "Let's talk about it tonight. Anyway, my family has done all it could out of kindness and duty."
Luo Huiniang almost cried. She had always thought that Sister Xiu would become her sister-in-law, and her family had even built a courtyard with a spacious embroidery room specifically for Sister Xiu when they were constructing their home.
