The engagement was indeed taken very seriously by the Xu family and his concubine, Song Kangcheng.

Moreover, time was tight; the matter had to be settled before Song Kangcheng and his concubine returned to the capital.
In this short period of time, nothing was simplified, which shows how important this was.
Madam bought a large house in town, with a plaque above the door that read "Fu Mansion," which was for Fu Man'er.
It's currently empty and needs time and effort to set up.
She doesn't have time to stay here and keep an eye on things right now, but she has arranged for a capable subordinate to stay and watch over things.
If Fu Man'er gets married in the future, this will be the place where she will be married, so every place should be decorated to the best of Madam's liking.
The day after Fu Man'er and Xu Yi got engaged, Song Kangcheng and his sister were about to set off back to Beijing.
The convoy stopped outside the city gate, where the Xu family came to see them off.
"Man'er, you must take good care of yourself here." As she was leaving, Lady Ru's eyes reddened again. She looked deeply at Fu Man'er, wanting to imprint her image deep in her mind.
"Yes, you take care of yourself too." Fu Man'er gave Madam Ru a hug.
Xu Yi handed her something, which Fu Man'er accepted. "This is a gift I prepared for you. I hope you like it."
She had seen how kind the concubine had been to her during this time, and although she wouldn't go to the capital with the concubine, she could still express her gratitude.
"You can look at it after you get on the carriage." When Madam Ru was about to open it, Fu Man'er held her hand down.
"Alright." Madam Ru choked back tears as she withdrew her hand.
After exchanging a few words, Song Kangcheng and his concubine got into the carriage. Fu Man'er stood at the front, watching their carriage go forward.
It wasn't until they were very, very far away that Madam Ru and Song Kangcheng lowered the carriage curtain.
"I don't know when we'll see each other again after this parting," Madam Ru said softly.
The lady-in-waiting beside her wiped away her tears and comforted her, "Madam, you've forgotten, Miss is getting married next year. You can come back to see Miss when she gets married."
Hearing the lady-in-waiting's words, Madam Ru felt a little better. Then she opened the gift that Fu Man'er had given her, which was two scrolls.
One pair belongs to Fu Man'er herself, while the other pair is of her and Fu Man'er together.

Fu Man'er quickly took a handkerchief and wiped her tears. "Alright, alright, stop crying. Why did she say that to you?"
“You’re not going to see her, and this is Manager Chen’s business, so she has no right to comment.”
Fu Man'er had heard a bit about the fact that a cousin had come to Steward Chen's house, but at the time, she was preoccupied with her birth mother's situation and didn't pay much attention to it.
I only heard Wang Jingjing mutter a few words, but I didn't expect that so much time had passed and this cousin was still living in the Chen family.
"That's what I thought too. I got angry when I heard it and argued with her, but she always had something to say, so I couldn't stand it."
"I slapped her, and then Manager Chen saw it."
“She went to complain to Manager Chen, who thought I was bullying her and said a few words to me.”
"In a fit of anger, I punched Manager Chen and ran back."
Fu Man'er paused for a moment as she wiped away Wang Jingjing's tears; this was indeed something Wang Jingjing would do.
"You hit someone, don't you feel any better about it?" (Reading by)

It's not that I'm holding my breath, it's that I haven't vented my anger enough.
Wang Erni sniffed, "I feel much better now that I've cried, but I'm still angry when I think about his cousin."
Fu Man'er knew that Wang Jingjing was angry not only about this, but also about Steward Chen's distrust of her.
"Don't be angry now. Let you calm down first, and then we can talk this out properly."
These two men were both capable assistants in the cloth workshop; one was in charge of the town, and the other was in charge of the surrounding towns. They met almost every day.
Now that this has happened, given Wang Jingjing's personality, she'll probably be extremely hostile towards him when they meet.
Fu Man'er felt that she needed to pay more attention to this matter.
She hadn't expected that shortly after she saw Wang Jingjing off, Manager Chen's so-called cousin would come knocking on her door.
