"Hello, Aunt Mei." Ye Shu nodded politely as Aunt Mei looked her way.
"Is your name Ye Shu?" A flicker of surprise briefly crossed her eyes.
Ye Shu nodded and said, "Yes, Aunt Mei, that's my name. Are you interested in it?"
"Oh, haha, it sounds nice, a good name. Goodbye." Aunt Mei turned and walked away.
As Ye Shu watched Aunt Mei's retreating figure, she inexplicably felt a touch of sadness. "Da Li, you said Aunt Mei had been locked up for over a dozen years. Why did she choose to stay after her release? Does she really have no family outside? Surely she has some friends?"
"Who knows? Lots of people have asked her, and she just smiles. The district is her home."
"Oh... I see... I always feel like Aunt Mei must have many fascinating stories," Ye Shu said, bowing her head to eat, only to find her food basin missing!
Turning her head, she saw Da Li eating with gusto. A woman who could eat like that would bankrupt anyone who married her, right?
