Old Mrs. Chen knew Old Mrs. Song was joking, but she was not one to be modest, especially about her granddaughter.
"To be honest with you," Old Mrs. Chen said, "I also think my Miss Chen is better than anyone else, so we need to keep her well protected."
Old Mrs. Song hadn't spoken yet when Mrs. Gao laughed and said, "Auntie, that's not right. Miss Chen will eventually get married and can't stay by your side forever. Don't you think so, Old Mrs. Song?"
As soon as Mrs. Gao said this, she suddenly felt she had spoken too hastily. What was originally a casual chat between Old Mrs. Chen and Old Mrs. Song had changed in tone with her added comment.
If she hadn't thought deeply, she would have forgotten that Old Mrs. Song was General Song Xian's grandmother, and General Song Xian was still unmarried. She had never considered this before.
Oh dear, General Song's age is quite suitable for Miss Chen. What if Old Mrs. Song misinterprets this situation?
