Qian Manjiang said, "Their offer to help is a gesture of goodwill towards our Qian family, ultimately aiming to continue seeking marital ties. We'll accept the goodwill, as getting on good terms with the Liang family is also a blessing for us. As for the rest, the mistake was not ours. Old Duke Liang has an excellent reputation in court; everyone says he's shrewd yet fair, and makes for a worthy acquaintance without being petty."
Qian Sangui felt relieved after hearing this. Then he added, "Having accepted the Liang family's kindness, we now owe them a big favor."
Yixiu said, "Old Duke Liang is known for his righteous heart. It's understandable that he would offer to help us knowing we were in trouble. In the future, if they encounter difficulties, we will also offer our help proactively."
The three generations discussed the matter and all agreed that they should accept the Liang family's goodwill.
