Aunt Qi's mouth twitched slightly; the logic of Second Young Master Xia was indeed not something ordinary people could understand.
"Ladies, the title of Magistrate Pingxi might not be very high in the palace, but it's sufficient for the daughters of officials, not to mention girls from ordinary families. Even Miss Su from Prime Minister Su Mansion has to pay her respects. Of course, when they meet men of lesser rank than themselves, those men have to show their respects too."

Yet Xiao Linshuang, Lin Wei, and the others were clearly more concerned with the fact that Su Qiuyu would have to pay respects to Lin Yuan. Remembering how Su Qiuyu had previously looked down on Lin Yuan as if she were a despised little village girl, and now she had to pay respects to that very village girl, just thinking about it felt satisfying.
