The steward walked back dejectedly.
Situ Yongjie glanced behind him, seeing no one, not even a trace of Situtu Xueer, and asked curiously, "Where is the young lady?"
"Gone," the steward replied listlessly.
"What's wrong? Didn't you catch up with the young lady?"
"No, I did catch up."
"Where is she then?"
As the steward spoke, Situ Yongjie grew more confused.
"The young lady said since they're already dead, there's no need to bother, just drag them out and bury them directly."
"Did the young lady really say that?"
"I swear, it's absolutely true."
Though this daughter grew up in the countryside, she is incredibly smart. Situ Yongjie increasingly favors her, feeling that she's as wise as his legal wife, always seeking her advice on matters.
"What does Xuexue mean?"
"I don't know either."
Frowning, Situ Yongjie thought for a moment, then irritably waved his hand and said, "Follow the young lady's advice and drag them out to bury them."
