Wang Yongzhu also calmed everyone down and accompanied Old Granny Zhang to buy the meat.

Meanwhile, Old Lady Sun shuffled awkwardly out of the courtyard gate, no longer concerned with Shitou’s wife or Wang Yongzhen, her hands clasped in front of her as she broke into a run, despite her advanced age. Although her running form was far from graceful, her speed was not slow.

Wang Yongzhen was worried about her eldest daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law and was at a loss as to whom she should follow.
Fortunately, Old Lady Sun didn’t get far before she turned a corner and stopped. She maintained the same posture, with her hands in front, and commanded, "Eldest Brother’s family, go quickly and bring back your man, your young uncle, and Shitou. We’re all going home together."
Wang Yongzhen hesitated slightly.
