Xiao Jizi felt something was amiss and wanted to speak up.
Lian Hua glanced at him, afraid he might stop her, and hurriedly said, "I won't do anything. I'll just watch from afar while you guys do the work."
Well then, okay, Xiao Jizi nodded, he had no more objections.

No sooner said than done, the four of them neatly gathered in the courtyard with their tools.
Lian Hua looked around and, not finding Zhang Qing, casually grabbed a Young Eunuch to ask, "Where is Steward Zhang?"
