The next morning in Ji Manor, Housekeeper Song brought a letter into the backyard.
The Second Mistress had just finished breakfast and took the letter carried by the servant girl. Unfolding it, she looked at it sentence by sentence and smiled faintly.
"What does the letter say, Mistress?" Yuan'er asked.
After reading it, the Second Mistress put it aside and said quietly, "It's a letter from the Su Family. It asks if Miss Su has arrived in Shengjing. It also asks if we have set the date for marriage."
Yuan'er smiled contemptuously. "The Su family is really in a hurry. We haven't said if we want to marry their young lady and they are already asking about the wedding."
As she spoke, she folded the letter and put it back into the envelope.
Suddenly, something fell out of the envelope and floated onto the hibiscus-colored carpet.
