The maidservant expressed concern, saying, “I understand. Madam Shao’s sudden illness must be distressing. Our Madam specifically instructed us to convey our regards and assess Madam Shao’s condition. We’ll inform her upon our return! Could you allow us to enter and perform a kowtow? We assure you that we’ll stand at a distance and not disturb Madam Shao.”

Another servant added, “Absolutely. Our Madam also emphasized the same. Miss, please consider allowing just the two of us to enter. By offering our respects and a quick glance, we can provide a reassuring report to Madam!”

“Indeed!”

Lixia and Liqiu concealed their annoyance. Initially skeptical of the Old Master’s warning about potential troublemakers, they now found themselves facing the reality of unwanted guests.

As Lixia and Liqiu spoke, their expressions betrayed some irritation. It seemed that these visitors had intentions beyond mere well-wishing.

“Everyone, please return. Our Madam is currently not receiving guests. Once she recovers and regains her strength, she will naturally meet with you!”

Recognizing the dubious intentions of the visitors, Lixia and Liqiu wore unpleased expressions. Their tone was cold, and their displeasure was evident.

In truth, the maids and servants sent by the Deputy Prefect’s wife were also perplexed. They didn’t understand why they were instructed to perform kowtows and pay respects to Madam Shao. While the Deputy Prefect’s wife cited it as a matter of etiquette, the genuine concern for Madam Shao prompted some uncertainty. Even though they felt it might be excessive, they adhered to the instructions, trusting that the Madam had her reasons.

The aides from the prefectural magistrate’s wife sided with the Deputy Prefect’s wife’s maid, aligning with her expressed concern for Madam Shao. Failing to show adequate concern might imply a lack of consideration on their Madam’s part, a scenario they wished to avoid.

Lixia and Liqiu’s frosty expressions and cold tone made the servants from the magistrate”s wife uneasy, considering a retreat. However, those from the Deputy Prefect’s wife’s side remained entangled, hesitant to concede the matter.

She displayed such fervor that it made her uneasy about Madam Shao’s absence.

Lixia and Liqiu were both irritated and vexed, but the other party seemed oblivious to their sentiments.

To their surprise, the two maids carrying the food box attempted to bypass them and enter the house. Liqiu, alarmed, exclaimed, “Stop, what are you doing!”

A maidservant pulled Liqiu aside, smiling forcefully. “Miss Liqiu, Miss Lixia, our Madam is genuinely concerned! She frets over Madam Shao and wishes to…”

Before she could finish, another maidservant hastily interrupted, smiling at the other, “Let’s enter and pay our respects to Madam Shao. We can explain to Madam when we return!”

The other maidservant remained perplexed, not grasping the situation. “Huh?” She instinctively resisted being pulled away.

“All of you! Halt!”

Despite Lixia and Liqiu being restrained and pulled by others, the ongoing arguments drowned out their attempts to communicate effectively with the two maidservants heading inside.

Mianmian, who was in the room with Qiao Wei, rushed out, ignoring Qiao Wei. She intercepted the two maidservants.

“What are you doing here? You’re disturbing Madam!” Mianmian exclaimed.

Unexpectedly, a servant forcefully pushed Lixia aside and barged into the house. “Since Madam Shao is awake, we should perform a kowtow and pay our respects!”
