After staying at Jianglan's for two nights, the old lady insisted on going home. Just like many elderly people accustomed to the countryside, she felt uncomfortable in the city and was only interested in seeing something new. Staying any longer made her feel bored.
It didn't help that there weren't any friends of the same age around to chat with.
Unable to persuade her to stay, there was no choice but to send her back.
As they were helping the old lady into the hall, they came face to face with a middle-aged woman in a floral dress. Her sharp eyes, high cheekbones, and thin lips made it clear she was a difficult person to deal with.
Peng Xiue, Liu Guida's wife.
"Mom, you're back! Why not stay in the city a few more days?"
Despite the smile she wore, Peng Xiue's demeanor seemed forced and uncomfortable.
