"The capital is bustling at night, quite different from the day," Madam Fu explained.
"Yes," Fu Changqin stood up and said.
Mrs. Yan, feeling uneasy, said, "Just wander around nearby and that'll be fine."
"Sister-in-law, rest assured, the security in the capital has been improving in recent years. Though not to the point of leaving doors unlocked at night, it's certainly safe," Madam Fu replied and then advised Fu Changqin, "Take care of your sisters, there are many people at the night market, don't get separated."
After Fu Changqin and the others left, Madam Fu asked, "Sister-in-law, is there something you wish to say?"
"I knew you would have guessed," Mrs. Yan said, smiling, "With the children around, it's not convenient to talk."
"Besides arranging a marriage for Liqing, I actually wanted to discuss one for Sikang as well," Mrs. Yan said. "Sikang is no longer young, although I wish to wait for him to pass the examination to find a more prestigious family."
