A few days after the Dragon Boat Festival, the family of Mrs. Liu Lin set off for their return journey to Shengping County. Shen Chengyao left the city early in the morning with the children to bid them farewell.

Once Xiao'er returned to the mansion after seeing off her guests, Shangguan Wanru, Fu Ranhui and others came to visit. They invited Xiao'er to join them at the beauty salon for skincare treatments.

With nothing else to do, Xiao'er consented and invited Yun'er along as well.

Yun'er wanted to visit the cloth shop to check out some fabrics. She had just drawn a few design sketches and had not yet found the right fabric, so she happily agreed to go, hoping to take the opportunity to find a suitable fabric at the shop.

After their treatments at the beauty salon, the ladies went shopping. Realizing that they would soon be married, Xiao'er decided to find out what they liked and purchase it in anticipation of gifting them as part of their trousseau.
