She had not taken this woman seriously when she made a scene previously, thinking she was just a spoiled young lady acting on a whim, and that scolding her would dissuade her from coming back due to loss of face. After all, Yu Ze had made no secret of his disinterest in her, so Muniang had not given the incident much thought after it passed. She never expected to be outwitted by this girl on that account.
Seeing Muniang's face grow increasingly sour, Housekeeper Li dared not speak further, knowing she was angry.
Muniang said coldly, "I will go myself!" With that, she turned and left the house.
Upon exiting Mei Garden, her carriage was already waiting outside, and the coachman brought her a footstool as she came out, "Lady, where to?"
"Qinghua City."
The coachman was startled, "Going all of a sudden?"
Muniang gave a slight nod and boarded the carriage.
