December 30, 1911, the eleventh day of the winter month of the Xinhai year of the lunar calendar
Today is the day when the third young master of the Li family returns home. The second wife got up before dawn and sent a maid to the second gate almost every once in a while to see if the third young master has returned.
The third lady knew that the second lady was impatient, so she comforted her and said, "I know you are worried about your nephew, but it takes more than half an hour to get from Lou's house to our house by horseback. No matter how fast it is, we will never arrive at this time."
"I know that, too." The second wife sat on a round stool. "These past two days, I've been feeling very nervous. I need to see someone to feel at ease."
The third wife sat next to the second wife and patted her hand: "Sister-in-law, Parker Li is a smart child. He will never let himself suffer. Stop acting like this. You will end up making the child worry."
