Qian Yixiu and Cheng Yue stood in front of the window and saw the carriage bumping towards their home. Qian Sangui was carried on the back by Su Siwu and accompanied by Lady Wu as they reached the first floor of the Wangjiang Building. The couple once again gave some instructions to Qian Xiaoyu.
The carriage went straight into the front yard; a man alighted from it. The man was tall and slender, dressed in a smart, azure changpao with wide sleeves, a sash of the same color around his waist, and a bamboo hat on his head. The hat was pressed low, hiding most of his face.
Qian Yeejin stepped forward, bowed deeply, and, taking his hand, quickly ushered him into the backyard.
Upon seeing the man, Cheng Yue's body trembled, and tears fell like pearls from a snapped strand. She murmured, "It's Brother Jiang, it must be Brother Jiang. He's come back to see Yueyue, he really has come back to see Yueyue..."
