"Pah! The ancestors have passed this down for thousands of years. Do you really think that just because you say you don't believe in it, it doesn't exist?" Old Lady Hu was an immoral woman with a wicked heart, but she was deeply superstitious.
Back when it was still permitted, she would burn incense on the first and fifteenth of every lunar month. Every year, during the various festivals for the gods, she would buy candles, incense, and firecrackers to visit the temple and pray. Now that superstition was banned everywhere, she practiced in secret. She kept it hidden so well that even her own family didn't know she had a porcelain Buddha tucked away in her room, which she would secretly worship on the first and fifteenth of every month.
With Old Lady Hu’s warning, Old Third Hu didn't dare set his sights on Yuanchun anymore, but he began to harbor a grudge against Shen Yi for trying to snatch her away.
