"...Our young lady will reach womanhood this autumn. Since she was twelve, they've been looking for a match for her, from young men in the city to those in Yan Guan Town. The master and madam have checked out so many."
Gossip is a natural human instinct. Yu Qin rolled up her sleeves to help Tong Huaqiong wash the zong leaves, while gossiping casually.
Since the topic had turned to Miss Huang, Tong Huaqiong naturally wanted to flatter her by saying, "Last time I saw the young lady sitting next to Old Mrs. Huang, she was exceptionally beautiful. That must be your young lady."
Yu Qin said, "The one with the beautiful looks is a cousin from the old madam's family. Our young lady..."
Yu Qin thought discussing her young lady's appearance in public wasn't very appropriate, so she shut her mouth.
Tong Huaqiong immediately understood.
It seemed Miss Huang wasn't very good-looking.
