Even from a distance, they could hear people saying, "The Cao Family is really lucky today, encountering Scholar Song who is so generous, saving their child and not holding any grudges at all."
"If it were someone else, especially the loafers, the Cao Family might have had to pay dearly before this matter could end!"
The men continued discussing Song Chongjin's generosity and the embarrassing matters of the Cao Family.
The women's conversation, however, took a different turn.
"Only up close did I realize that Scholar Song is quite handsome! Though his skin is a bit dark!"
"He may look unapproachable with his dark face, but he's got a good heart, saving the Cao Family's child and generously letting them leave in the end."
"I must find someone to inquire at Changqing Academy tomorrow to see if Scholar Song is betrothed. If not, my daughter would be a perfect match!"
The young wives and maidens exchanged knowing glances.
