Chapter 1220 - 1040: Can’t Shake It Off
Seeing Yan Yile again, observing her forcibly straightened back and her proudly tilted chin, as she tried hard to present herself as not to be underestimated, Daohua felt slightly complex emotions.
"Second aunt, fourth sister, has your journey here been pleasant?"
Sun Family quickly nodded with laughter. She had been somewhat arrogant, relying on her seniority, but her expression became restrained upon seeing Daohua.
"Good, everything is fine with us."

"Big brother and sister-in-law are also doing well. Big brother is a bit busier with his official duties, and sister-in-law enjoys her time playing with the grandchildren, leading a very comfortable life."
"Your third uncle and aunt have moved out, but their new residence is just across the street. Every few days, they would join us for a small gathering. The family visits each other quite often."
"Your second brother has also settled down in the Hanlin Academy. Last year your sister-in-law gave birth to another niece, so now with both a son and a daughter, your second uncle and I are at ease."
