In other words, that day, there was a full hour or so when Wang Wuniang was alone without anyone accompanying her!
Zhao Shaohua felt like he finally grasped a clue, trying to remain calm, he asked, "Did your Fifth Lady mention where she went during that time?"
Little Tao and Peony's faces suddenly darkened at this question, Little Tao bit her lip and shook her head, "When we saw Fifth Lady that day, she seemed very downcast, unwilling to speak no matter what, even... even unwilling to wash up. We advised her for a long time to no avail, thinking she was too devastated and would be fine after a night's rest, so we didn't ask further.
Who would have thought, after that day, Fifth Lady seemed to have changed completely, like a snail retreating into its shell, unwilling to leave the door, eating very little, visibly losing weight day by day.
