Siliu stood up and returned the courtesy. Nanny Song then said to Xiqiu, "Miss, the Grand Dowager from the Marquis Xuanning's household has sent her personal nanny over, and the First Lady has asked for you to come by."
Xiqiu was taken aback, put down the pen in her hand, and asked, "Did she mention what it was about?" Why would the Grand Dowager's nanny be looking for her? What's the matter?
Xiqiu changed into a pink overcoat, redid her makeup, wearing a delicate green jade hairpin on the left and a red plum silver lotus hairpin on the right, with pearl and gemstone earrings. Her look was simple yet with a hint of youthful charm. She, along with Nanny Song, Sixing, and Siliu, made their way to the outer courtyard.
