Chen Shanshan was just about to burst out when she realized whose voice it was, and turning her head, she looked at Mrs. Du discontentedly and said, "Mother, when this group of lowborns gangs up to bully Shanshan, a frail young lady, you don't seek justice for Shanshan, and yet you can still accuse Shanshan of 'creating trouble'? Where was Shanshan creating trouble?"
With a faint smile on her face, Mrs. Du looked like a very cultivated noblewoman. She gently tapped Chen Shanshan's hand and scolded softly, "Shanshan, if it weren't for their help, how could the few of us have separated the carriage? We should be thanking them properly!"
As she spoke, Mrs. Du bowed to the passersby who had come to help, and said warmly, "My daughter is ignorant and has caused you displeasure. It is my fault for not teaching her properly. I hope you can overlook it, given her young age. Please, could you help separate the carriage first? I thank you all here."
