From the county town to the village, it's only about fifty miles.
A round trip by carriage takes just half a day, is it really so urgent?
Second Master Chai and Second Madam Chai were filled with doubt.
The steward shook his head, "I don't know. Old Mrs. Chai just said to ask Second Master and Second Madam to return as soon as possible to discuss matters concerning Miss Chai."
Second Madam Chai frowned, "The feast hasn't even started..."
She was just Second Master Chai's second wife, Eldest Miss Chai and Second Miss Chai were the daughters of her cousin, not her own.
Because they weren't her own, she wasn't very concerned.
Second Master Chai thought for a moment and said to Second Madam Chai, "I'll go back, you stay here for the feast."
It could only be this way.
The family hosting the feast was the cousin of the County Magistrate's father-in-law!
