Shen Guqing heard the master's words, tears welling up in her eyes: "Thank you, Master, Mistress, thank you, Senior Brother, thank you all."
Mrs. Du, understanding and considerate, said, "It's getting late. Cheng Xi will return to the hospital for work tomorrow, and Qing'er has been busy since she came back these days. Let's all rest early."
Mr. Du's courtyard is a three-section one; each of the apprentices has their own room. Even for Xinyan, Mrs. Du has arranged and tidied up a room herself.
Once in the room, Mr. Du spoke, "Was it wrong back then not to restrain her?"
Mrs. Du poured her husband a glass of water: "Who knew Meng Yifei's family would be so disgraceful. The mistake was Qing'er should not have chosen to endure for the sake of so-called true love."
Mr. Du sighed, "It proves the saying true; there's no match for shamelessness."
