"Maybe… that person is a mute and can't speak?" Lady Wei guessed.
Zhi Wan recalled how the person hadn't made a sound and nodded. "That's possible. But he was so strange. On such a hot day, he was still wrapped up so tightly."
"That part is indeed quite odd," Lady Wei agreed with a nod.
The two of them discussed it for a little while longer before changing the subject.
Thinking that they were already back in Jurong, Zhi Wan wanted to make a trip to Red Leaf Village to see Nanny Chen.
"Aunt, I want to go see Nanny Chen. When we get back to the city in a bit, you can rest at an inn first. I'll be back soon."
Lady Wei took her hand and said, "We've already come all the way to Jurong, so it's only right that you go see your nanny. I don't need to rest. I'll go with you."
Hearing this, Zhi Wan hesitated. "But the roads in the village aren't easy to travel on. It's very bumpy…"
"If you're not afraid, why would I be?" Lady Wei pinched her cheek, speaking casually.
