Madam Wang: "What nonsense are you all talking about?"
One of the maids halted her laughter and said, "Indeed, as soon as the noble visited today, Celestial Master Zhang accompanied him for a while, and madam got very jealous—we all noticed it!"
It turned out these maids thought that madam got angry because she was jealous that Celestial Master Zhang was accompanying the noble instead of her!
Being scolded by Celestial Master Zhang, such a disgraceful matter, Lady Zhang naturally wouldn't foolishly disclose it and vaguely reprimanded, "You don't understand, stop talking nonsense."
The maids responded in unison with laughter, "Yes, we don't understand."
Clearly, it was in a teasing tone.
Lady Zhang didn't explain either; let them misunderstand—it's better than others knowing she got scolded by the Old Master.
