Upon learning this news, Old Man Qin was filled with inexplicable terror. He wondered why all girls, even princesses, were required to be married before the age of fifteen. Being a man of letters, his mind raced with worries, and he became increasingly concerned about the future of his two daughters. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly; there was nothing he could do.
And so, the two gifted sisters followed Sister Xiu to learn how to manage the city. In the mornings, they practiced martial arts with Dian Wei, though for the past few days, Dian Wei had been leaving early and returning late. During this time, besides learning management from Sister Xiu, the sisters specifically asked the female students to teach them how to cook. Old Man Qin had not left since arriving; he stayed on, partly out of curiosity. With his two daughters busy cooking every day, he spent his time wandering about.
