The small courtyard had been bustling with people coming and going for the past two days. Zhou Lian watched the busy Li family members from her window and shook her head with a wry smile. 'Everyone is so happy about Grandma Li's birthday, they've completely ignored this whole mess!'
Glancing up at the few people drinking tea under the grapevine trellis in the courtyard, Zhou Lian pressed her lips together. 'The matter has to be resolved, but Li Xiu can't be the one to bring it up. No matter what, he's a junior. There are some things he can't say, and some things he can't do himself.'
Zhou Lian walked under the grapevine trellis. Looking at Uncle Li, Aunt Li, the other Uncle Li, and the other Aunt Li, all drinking tea with Grandma Li, she sat down nearby and asked softly, "Grandma, Uncles, Aunts, for your big birthday celebration, what are we going to do about the family at the old residence?"
