The next day, Ning Guan told Ning Qing who came to the shop that she would be holding a banquet for Ning Yang this evening. Ning Qing promised that she would go with Ning Guan so that she wouldn't waste time, and she would send someone back to inform the general's residence so that everyone wouldn't worry. Ning Qing also asked Ning Guan if she had the money to spend so that she could take it out and give it to her father.
Ning Guan then reminded Ning Qing that there was still a lot of money in the chest, so this time Ning Guan only took out five hundred taels to buy food to feed the people in the manor and Ning Yang's teacher who was going back to Shi City tomorrow.
