As they picked up their chopsticks to eat, under the watchful eyes of so many, they discovered that Xia Wenjin's etiquette was impeccable.
Everyone unconsciously compared her to Duan Yan, the most proper daughter of the Minister of Rites, and found that she was equally flawless.
Even the Seventeenth Princess couldn't help but ask, "I heard that people from the Jianghu drink wine from large bowls and eat large chunks of meat. Is that true?"
Xia Wenjin replied, "What you heard is probably correct!"
The Seventeenth Princess blinked and confirmed, "Actually, you're not really from the Jianghu, are you?"
Xia Wenjin responded with a smile, "Princess, before I came to the Capital City, I also heard that the Capital City is paved with gold and jade, filled with gold everywhere! That all men are like immortals from heaven, and all women are like celestial fairies fallen to earth!"
This statement made everyone who heard it laugh.
