Su Jin went to Qihao Hall.
Xingxing followed closely behind, carrying a tray.
The tray was a bit heavy.
But Xingxing carried it happily.
Even if it were twice as much, she would gladly do it.
As soon as they entered the room, the Third Madam glanced at the tray and laughed, "Still, it's the Eldest Young Madam who is filial, receiving Dongzhu and first bringing it for the Old Madam to choose."
Su Jin frowned.
She did not speak.
Xingxing looked at the Third Madam and said, "My lady didn't intend to give away the Dongzhu, I just wanted to see the excitement so I brought it along. I'll take it back shortly."
Taking it back shortly—
Very straightforward.
Straightforward to the point where the Third Madam's face turned green.
The Second Madam suppressed her laughter until her face cramped.
The bandits of Qingyun Mountain don't play by the rules of the inner courtyard.
The Third Madam scolded angrily, "The master hasn't spoken yet, is it your place as a maid to speak?!"
