Shu Yu's banishment had become anything but a secret anymore.
Even if everyone intended to keep it from the Eldest Aunt, with so much time having passed, and the abrupt departure of the second household, she surely would have found out if she had wanted to.
What astonished Shu Yu was Madam Li's reaction.
Dabao wrote in the letter, "The Eldest Aunt wants to divorce the Eldest Uncle?"
"What???" exclaimed the old lady, while everyone else sat up straight with solemn expressions.
Shu Yu said, "After learning about my banishment, the Eldest Aunt feared implicating the main family, so she asked the Eldest Uncle to sever ties with us. Both the Eldest Uncle and Brother Daniu disagreed, and then the Eldest Aunt threatened to divorce the Eldest Uncle."
Before, Madam Li probably had never thought there could be such a way out.
But since Daya went through such an ordeal last year, it had opened up new avenues of thought for her.
