Therefore, Lady Du shared her thoughts with the Grandmother and Lady Bai, and said, "It's not that I am speaking for my niece, Xiang Yun is straightforward. If she did it, she would definitely not be able to hide it. If she didn't, she would never agree upon being falsely accused. When we return to the mansion later, we may as well summon her to inquire whether it was her doing or not. Soon we will be able to discern the truth! If it truly was her, although I'm her aunt, I will by no means cover for her. If it wasn't her, I still hope that the Grandmother and sister-in-law will take charge and help Yun'er clear her suspicion and restore her reputation."
Despite both being deeply saddened by the loss of Du Wanqing's children, the Grandmother and Lady Bai were not confused. They had watched Xiang Yun grow up and understood her temperament. Therefore, when Lady Wu made this request, the Grandmother and Lady Bai agreed upon it without hesitation.
