Hongji, on his way back, had to conceal from Aunt Lai the purchase of shops, houses, and farmlands in Jingdong—these significant affairs—to avoid her causing trouble.
Moreover, the people brought back also had to remain tight-lipped.
Hongji met with his cousin's old housekeeper during their visit to the Capital City.
Hongji's father racked his brains, trying to think of which cousin had married into the Capital City.
At that moment, he couldn't recall the cousin who had swapped her child.
Hongji merely mentioned relatives on his grandmother's side without giving away too much detail.
He knew that the old housekeeper would definitely pay them a visit, and explanations could wait until then.
After a day of exhausting travel, he didn't say much. They bathed and rested and allowed the workers to rest and settle down as well.
Hongji's father and Aunt Lai were eager to know more, wanting to find out whom they visited in the Capital City.
