A few people entered the Zhiqu Courtyard one by one. Tong Xiyang, being the eldest, naturally took the main seat. Xiqiu had Chunyan serve tea. Tong Xiyang held a pastel porcelain cup with a butterfly playing among orchids, took a gentle sip, and smiled, saying, "It's actually Laojun Mei. How rare it is that Sixth Sister even has other teas prepared here!"
Xiqiu responded with a smile, "We always had it; it's just that Third Sister is such a rare guest, I've not had the chance to show this courtesy!" Hearing this, Tong Xiyang raised an eyebrow, covered her mouth with her sleeve to laugh, and said, "Sixth Sister jests, I dare not accept your courtesy. If so, wouldn't our Third Master reprimand me?"
Tong Xiyu looked puzzled and asked, "Why would Third Brother-in-law reprimand you?"
