Auntie Ling was not the kind of person who would remind her of her own accord just to keep her from being rude. Obviously not!
So even if she had no idea what was going on, she should definitely object to Auntie Ling's suggestion.
"Auntie Ling, you can see her off. You are Madame Qiao's auntie, and you speak for her. You are more suitable than me!"
Auntie Ling stiffened and said seriously, "Second Miss, don't joke around. I am just a servant, not a madame! That is not how it should be done!"
"That is not true. Everyone knows that Madame Qiao can't live without Auntie Ling. She has to rely on Auntie Ling, you, for everything!"
"No, Second Miss, don't say that!"
"Oh, Auntie Ling, are you feeling shy about it!"
"…."
Madame Tang felt thoroughly perplexed.
