"Dad! Mom! I'm hungry, I don't want to sleep! I can't sleep on an empty stomach!" Shi Yulin became anxious upon hearing her father say this.
"It's all my fault! I'm useless!" Mrs. Gui was also regretful to death; had she known such an affair would occur, she should not have refused Liu Ya's offer to send someone! If they confront each other tomorrow, wouldn't it be disadvantageous for her? Mrs. Gui quickly blamed herself and then said, "Actually, the maid beside the First Madam mentioned sending someone for me, but I refused because I didn't want to trouble them. Third Madam, please don't blame the First Madam..."
"Hmph!" Third Madam Shi coldly said, "If she were sensible and truly respected us as elders, even if you declined she would have definitely sent someone. Once you declined, she just took the opportunity to back off, clearly showing she never intended to!"
