Since they were going to look for Zhou Xuennian, and even taking the kids along, Madam Lu couldn't just sneak off without informing her mother-in-law about her whereabouts. So, she dragged the big one and the little one along and crossed the courtyard wall together.
Old Lady Zhou was playing with Zhou Xueli's newly born little son. When she saw Madam Lu and them coming with a bundle on their backs, she was taken aback.
"Where are you all going?" Old Lady Zhou handed the little grandson to Lady Liang and looked at them.
Madam Lu beamed and said, "Mother, you don't know, but your eldest son is doing well now, he's become an official!"
"Big brother an official?" Zhou Xueli had just come back from outside and heard this incredible remark, staring at Madam Lu as if she were out of her mind, "Sister-in-law, you must be out of your mind, right?"
Zhou Xuennian an official? What a joke, he doesn't even have a title, how could he be an official, who would dare employ him?
