Chapter 150 - 149 Xiao Jiajia’s Snacks
Ye Xinyan, having heard Nanny Liu’s words, took the lead and went out, indeed seeing a flatbed cart parked not far from the work shed.
It truly was Jinrong’s people who had come. As the saying goes, it’s better to deal with the familiar than the stranger, and Jinrong embraced the essence of this saying by sending a familiar face, Hongzhi.
The coachman was a strapping middle-aged man, and Hongzhi sat beside him on the shaft of the cart. The flatbed was piled high with bundles and luggage rolls, all stacked meticulously and securely tied down with ropes.
Hongzhi hopped down from the shaft of the cart and first went straight to Ye Xinyan to greet her with familiarity, "I hope Lady Qi has been well, our Sixth Master has sent me to bring his regards to you." To send one’s servants to Miss Ye without prior notice seemed... not quite right.
After saying this, Hongzhi did not dare to look at Ye Xinyan’s expression but turned to bow to Qi Younian, "Old Master Qi, I, Hongzhi, offer you my greetings."
Qi Younian did not disappoint Hongzhi and returned the greeting with a chuckle, then warmly pulled him aside and said, "How has young Hongzhi been? Every time you say there’s no time, but this time you have come right to our doorstep, and after such a long journey, you must come in for a sit, have some tea, and try some snacks before you leave. Just yesterday, Ye Zi made Sweet Cheese for Qi Jia, and it’s really tasty, you must try it."
Nanny Jin, completely ignoring that there were problems with Qi Younian’s statements, chimed in, "Yes, Ye Zi shaped this batch of Sweet Cheese into small bite-sized snacks, which not only taste good but are also convenient to eat. Come on, let’s head home."
There was something off about the way this was phrased.
