Madam Zhou was unaware of Purple Jade's inner thoughts. She glanced at the numerous valuable items in the room that had been packed up and were ready to be moved, feeling somewhat wistful.
She originally thought she would live in this place until her death. Who could have imagined that she would be leaving before even a year had passed?
From the foot of the mountain of Wozi Village, to Huayang, and then to Changan; from hunger and want to living in luxury, everything felt like a dream, leaving one unsure if it was a dream or reality.
If it were just a dream...
Madam Zhou caressed her belly, as if trying to feel the life inside through her clothes. If this was but a dream, she did not wish to wake from it, hoping instead to die within this dream.
Since Wufu was already waiting in Changan City, and Wu Lihong had gone to Jiangnan and would soon return to Changan, Madam Zhou found no reason to linger. Following Purple Jade's suggestion, she set the date for their departure.
