The next day, Wen Wan visited the Duke Lu Mansion.
As soon as she reached Old Mrs. Lu's courtyard, she heard heart-wrenching cries coming from inside.
Wen Wan already guessed who it was.
After the maid announced her, she lifted the curtain and entered, and indeed saw Lu Qiao sobbing uncontrollably in Aunt Wen's arms.
Old Mrs. Lu's brows were tightly furrowed as she tried to console her, "The government office is already handling the case. It will be solved soon. You should stay calm and have another child."
Lu Qiao cried even more sorrowfully, "My Hao'er..."
Aunt Wen was also crying uncontrollably and took out a handkerchief to wipe Lu Qiao's tears.
Mrs. Xiao Liu looked unwell as well. When she saw Wen Wan come in, she relaxed her expression and called out, "Sister Wan."
Wen Wan approached to pay her respects to Old Mrs. Lu.
"Wan girl, you should try to comfort Qiao," Old Mrs. Lu said, her heart aching for the child who had been brutally murdered.
