Listening to what the lady said, Qiao Jinniang said, "Madam, to tell the truth, my parents had promised my brother before the Imperial Examination that if he passed the Imperial Examination, he could choose his wife himself. So, Madam, wait a moment, let me ask my brother."
Qiao Jinniang left.
The lady said confidently, "Young Master Qiao had been in the academy before, and was surrounded by men.
"Miss Zhou was the only woman he could see! He must have had a thing for the only girl in the school. I'm going to tell the Zhou family the great news."
The lady couldn't wait to tell the news to the Duke Wu Mansion to make them owe her a favor, so she left before Qiao Jinniang returned.
Zheng Xiao thought so too. There weren't many women around his son. Now that he said that he already had a girl he liked, he must have met that girl in school.
So she didn't stop that lady.
In the study in the front yard, Qiao Lu was looking at a painting.
