Shopkeeper Wu lowered his head, stammering and unable to speak, not daring to argue anymore.
Ninth Master Lee held two pieces of fabric in his hand, walked around the room twice, and then spoke: "Are you saying that because Lady Wang's mother is ill, she decided to give us all the recipes so that she could accompany her mother on a journey?"
He rudely ignored the part where Shopkeeper Wu mentioned that Wang Yongzhu would accompany Song Chongjin to the autumn examination.
Shopkeeper Wu nodded: "Indeed, Lady Wang's mother has fallen seriously ill this time, she looks quite weakened. Lady Wang's mother has always been very fond of her, and Lady Wang is extremely filial. She surely wants to spend more time with her mother."
