As the two reached the doorway, Xu He suddenly remembered something and turned to instruct Zhou Yunmei, "Oh right, Mom, you have to remember, when you ask for money from Big Brother, you're supposed to say Dad is sick. We didn't anticipate the Fang Family would come back, but now that they have, you have to watch Dad and prevent him from wandering around, lest someone discovers the truth and tells the ones in the provincial city."
Zhou Yunmei felt a surge of hatred seeing her giving orders as if she were instructing a servant. She wanted to tear off Xu He's glossy façade, but what could she do when her own son was so worthless that he held this woman in high regard? The moment she bad-mouthed her, Luo Zhiming would immediately show his displeasure.
Sitting in the courtyard, Zhou Yunmei watched as Luo Dashan returned with a hoe over his shoulder.
Seeing her unhappy demeanor, he asked, "What's wrong? Why are you sitting here in the dark all alone?"
