Xiaotian spent several days making clothes for Master Guo and Madam Guo.
The clothes were finally finished. Xiaotian held the two sets of clothing in her hands and went to the main courtyard. Fortunately, Master Guo was not at home today; he had gone out for a walk, leaving only Madam Guo in the main courtyard.
Upon seeing Madam Guo, Xiaotian nervously called out, "Mother."
This was probably the first time she called her "mother" after that incident, because they used to say that she didn't deserve to call them father and mother. Back when Miss Jingjing came, she called them father and mother, but that was for outsiders to see. Now, with no outsiders present, she didn't know if her mother-in-law would accept this form of address.
Madam Guo glanced at Xiaotian, her face showing little expression. No matter what, the incident had left a knot in both their hearts, and things could never return to the way they were. "Sit down," she said.
