                                                       天表道:“吴妈妈,我回去与夫人商议,你不要失此机会。”
                                                                                                                                                                遂别,去见夫人,把春梅的话儿说了。夫人听信,待至次日,吴婆同一个奶娘竟与夫人相见,假以小姐亲事为因。
                                                                                                                                                                夫人只道这两个媒婆果与女孩儿说亲,两个婆子又只道夫人晓得其中情迹。谁知是刘天表的计策,使这两个婆子来看秋香。这奶娘把秋香仔细一看,见他生得齐正,便也欢喜,起身与吴婆别了夫人、小姐。
                                                                                                                                                                走出门首,过了几家,只见张秋嫂领着一个婆子要到刘府,看见吴婆心上火怒,厉声骂道:“你这老泼贱,来抢我的主顾。”
                                                                                                                                                                吴婆道:“露天衣饭可是让你做的?”
                                                                                                                                                                张秋嫂恼得眼睛突出,扭了吴婆劈头乱撞,那两个婆子劝解不住,两个在街上一个爬起一个扑倒,也不管出乖露丑。
                                                                                                                                                                街坊的人围住来看,见是女人厮打,不好上前劝解。恰好遇着月上卖花婆子走来解劝得脱,张秋嫂对几个婆子告诉一遍,这几个总是一伙人,便说道:“不偏护着你,也不偏护着他。如今依我们说,这一头媒让与吴妈妈做,两家的媒钱让一半与张妈妈罢。”
                                                                                                                                                                吴婆依允了,方才散去。
                                                                                                                                                                次早,刘天表来到吴婆家里,吴婆便去通知那乡宦家送了一百两聘礼,又是四疋彩缎,一一收下。
                                                                                                                                                                张秋嫂
