Zhulan's eldest son came to the main courtyard, and Jiang Zhu and his wife also arrived. Jiang Zhu said, "Grandmother, we'll return home with my eldest uncle."
"Good, traveling together provides mutual support."
Zhulan glanced at Mu Lan. Mu Lan's complexion was poor, mainly due to the stress caused by the child. Even though Mrs. Jiang didn't overtly criticize her, Mu Lan still felt a significant mental burden. Jiang Zhu and Mu Lan's return home was also intended to ease their minds.
Zhulan's eldest son stood up and said, "Mother, I'll make the arrangements now so we can leave as soon as possible."
Zhulan replied, "Ask Lady Li if she wants to go back as well."
She felt sympathy for women of ancient times who rarely had the chance to visit their maiden homes. Lady Li hardly got to see her parents, and Zhulan didn't want her next visit to be triggered by someone's passing.
