At dinner that evening, Xie Yunjin talked to Lu Jiao about the matter. "I went to the Lu family earlier and helped the Dean find who it was that Du Lanzhu's cousin-in-law bribed. The Lu family can explain to the Du family now that this matter has nothing to do with them. It's something that the Du family brought upon themselves and has nothing to do with the Lu family."
Xie Yunjin added, "I also told the Dean that you won't be attending any banquets that the Dean's wife hosts in the future. We are just a rural family and don't understand etiquette, which might negatively affect the Dean's wife's banquets."
After Xie Yunjin finished speaking, the Dean's expression changed several times. He finally sighed and said that he would remind his wife.
In the main hall, Lu Jiao nodded after she listened to Xie Yunjin. "I understand."
She never liked attending these banquets, but she had gone to help Xie Yunjin because of her status as his wife.
