Li Yuanshan saw that her mother was doing fine. Besides, even if something did happen, weren't there two grown men around to help? She let her mother know she was leaving and went to find her older sister. She wanted to help with some chores and have a good chat. All she knew was that her sister had divorced and moved back home. She hadn't seen her in person for years due to one reason or another, and it left her feeling a little uneasy.
However, her good intentions were thwarted by reality. That afternoon, she didn't get to help her older sister or even exchange more than a few words with her. Instead, she ended up helping her niece, Wang Ya, with her chores for the better part of the afternoon.
Li Yuanyi was mortified. She kept shooting glances at her daughter. How could she just let her aunt do all the work while she sat there resting? It was completely out of line.
