Lady Tang reacted as if someone had stepped on her tail, suddenly leaping up and responding loudly, "Why are you looking at me? How would I know?"
Lady Tang's intense reaction startled Situtu Qinger, who, still shaken, patted her chest and said, "Mother, why so loud? You scared me to death."
Hearing this, Lady Tang also realized that she had overreacted. She quickly adjusted her mindset and tried to speak more calmly, "Qinger, your mother has rushed back from the manor to the General's Mansion without a moment's rest, only to be questioned by your grandmother. It's inevitable that I'm a bit irritable and spoke too loudly without control. Please don't blame your mother."
"Alright! Qinger understands."
"Zhizhi is in trouble; let's hurry over to see."
As she spoke, Lady Tang got up from the ground, patted the dust off her dress, and hurried out of the Refreshing Courtyard.
