Zhulan did not comfort Lau Jia. She stood up slowly and patted her eldest daughter-in-law's shoulder, "You've been managing the household accounts well. I believe you can handle today's matters."
Since she decided to let her eldest son and daughter-in-law handle things, she was quick to let go. Although the Zhou family was not involved in any sordid affairs, Lady Li had seen plenty in other households. She trusted Lady Li.
Lady Li was no longer the same as before. Her mind had been on her daughter-in-law earlier, and now she could understand clearly, feeling a burning anger inside, "Mother, should I really let the daughter-in-law handle it?"
Zhulan, "Yes."
"Can she handle it however she wants?"
Zhulan already had her cloak on, "Yes."
Lady Li's confidence surged instantly, "Mother, let me accompany you out."
"No need, it's quite cold outside. I can manage by myself."
"Mother, then take it slow."
"Mm."
