Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Yesterday I heard from Sixth Madam that Bai Que had been standing outside Wutong Garden in the sun. Sixth Madam mentioned that Bai Que used to serve the Old Madam and has some standing. I don't know if this will displease the Old Madam, so I asked Hong Ye to inquire with the Marquis. Anyway, Hong Ye knows this matter best. Why not clarify publicly to avoid misunderstandings."
Qian Da kept a dark face and remained silent.
Mrs. Qian smiled, saying, "Marchioness is generous, let's have Miss Hong Ye explain, so we, old slaves, can understand."
