So, the maids started taking turns loitering at the entrance of Madam Wang's room.
Chunyu and Qiuyun, the two prominent maids alongside Tong Minzhi, also went to demonstrate. Since they served the Lady and the Young Master, they caused the biggest uproar at Madam Wang's door, and their words were the most unpleasant.
Madam Wang first cursed in anger, but after two days of cursing, she gained not a single advantage and was instead outdone by the young maids. After a day of silence, she unexpectedly brought out fruits and snacks: "The sun is fierce, why don't you ladies come in and sit, so you don't have to stand here in the sun." She warmly took Chunyu's hand, "I've long heard that you are sensible, help me persuade the Third Miss to finish copying early, so as not to delay the Lady's matters."
