After being scolded by Xiao Jinli, Shi Zhu'er's face turned red with anger. She pointed at Xiao Jinli and said angrily, "What's wrong with you? How could you be so ill-mannered?"
Xiao's mother disagreed with these words, saying, "Young lady, I don't agree with you saying that my Xiao Bao has no manners. Regarding manners, may I ask, young lady, is it courteous to mock and ridicule elders you don't know, snatch the jewelry we liked, and now worry about us not having money for a meal? Is this your upbringing? Does your family's education teach you to look down on and ridicule people at will?"
On her own, Shi Zhu'er couldn't out-argue Xia's mother and daughter. She stomped her foot and snorted, "Hmph, I'm worried that you'll come to eat and not have money to pay for the meal, don't lose face then!"
