Zhou Xuennian and his group arrived in town with their stomachs churning with hunger and didn't even go to eat; they came straight to Wufu's side. To their surprise, they were met with a refusal at the door.
Initially, they thought the gatekeeper did not recognize them, so they specifically clarified their identities, saying he was their Madam's own elder brother, an uncle by marriage, surely they had to send someone to relay the message?
Who would have thought they would be told that the Madam and the young lady had gone to offer incense and were not home to receive the message?
This infuriated Zhou Xuennian and his group, so they changed their tune and said they would just go in and wait, thinking once inside the house, what could go wrong?
But they hadn't expected that this place was neither a farm nor a village dwelling—a mansion wasn't a place you could simply walk into whenever you pleased, especially when the masters were absent. Who would dare let them in?
