Qiuju didn't actually know much; she simply pried some words out of Chen Ji while he was drunk that day.
Later, Scholar Chen returned, so she had to temporarily stop her inquiries. But the important things, those she should know, she still found out.
Qiuju possessed some beauty; otherwise, Scholar Chen wouldn't have chosen her as a concubine.
The Chen Family lacked power and influence, so to please others, they had to cater to their preferences. Coincidentally, the person Chen Ji had gotten involved with had some fondness for women, and the Chen Family only had a few female members, with the younger ones being Kong Zhiyou, Qiuju, and Dongmei.
Kong Zhiyou was not suitable; she was the Chen Family's legitimate wife, with the Kong Family backing her.
Dongmei was also not suitable, as she was rather plain and had no distinctive characteristics.
