Something was wrong. Something was very wrong.
Tang Shiba had actually agreed to go shopping with her?
[If she were the Tang Shiba I knew, she wouldn't even bother with me. She might even throw in a few insults.]
[Looks like this Tang Shiba really isn't the one I know.]

"Cousin, I'll have Chunmei take you to the teahouse to rest. Could you let Chunjuan come shopping with me?"
[Nope.]
"Why don't we shop together? Cousin, are you afraid I'll spend your money?"
"Of course not. Where I'm going is too far away. I'm just worried you'll get tired."

Tang Shiba didn't feel like going back and forth with her. Ouyang Xuan wanted to get this over with quickly? Fine. She would oblige.
"All right, off you go. Chunjuan, stay with my cousin. Don't lose her, okay?"
