Aunt Cheng said, "Madam, should we prepare some gifts to send together? After all, we have troubled the Marquis."
"That's a good idea." Madam Fu nodded, "But it shouldn't be too extravagant, for fear that the Marquis might not accept it."
"I remember there is a painting by Li Sixun in the storehouse." Madam Fu said to Shu Hua, "Go and bring that painting out."
"Yes."
Madam Fu then called Housekeeper Zhou and handed him the letter.
Shu Hua also brought the painting back and handed it over to Housekeeper Zhou.
"Please convey my gratitude to the Marquis." Madam Fu said, "Present this painting along with it, as my token of thanks. This matter has truly troubled the Marquis, and I won't feel at ease without a token of appreciation. Please persuade him not to refuse."
"Yes." Housekeeper Zhou took the items and went to the Marquis's residence.
Afterwards, Madam Fu continued organizing the items Fu Changqin needed for the exam the next day.
