Chapter 646 - 644: Taking the Blame
Ye Xinyan was explaining to Lady Qin as she asked for her opinion. After they had flipped through an entire booklet, the conversation between Lady Qin and Ye Xinyan became much smoother.
The two of them discussed and ordered a soup for each of the three of them, and then they ordered six kinds of snacks and four plates of dried fruits.
The servant woman from the restaurant took the menu booklet, repeated the snacks they had ordered to confirm, and asked, "Does the servant have it correct? If there are no issues, the servant will go down and have the kitchen prepare it right away."
Ye Xinyan looked towards Lady Qin, "Do you think we need to add anything else?"
Lady Qin hurriedly agreed, "That’s perfect, that’s perfect, it’s already quite a feast. We’re just here to talk, having these snacks is more than enough."
Watching the servant woman leave, Lady Qin glanced at the maids and servant women in the room, feeling that it was not appropriate to speak certain things in front of so many people.
She glanced at Nanny Hong, who had long been watching for her mistress’s cues. If their lady wished to speak privately with Miss Ye, it surely could not be done in front of so many people, could it?
Upon seeing Lady Qin’s look, Nanny Hong immediately understood. She first curtsied to Ye Xinyan and apologized, "Since Miss is speaking with my lady, we servants shall not stay by your side. We will wait outside the door, and if Miss or my lady needs anything, just call for us."
