"O—Oh! Yes, Lady Yao said so. Please come in. I will help her get up first and serve the tea!"
Bai Shijue and Han Shun followed the servant to a spacious room with a small tea table in the middle. There was a garden with a pond filled with Koi fishes. This place was old, but it was still well taken care of.
Another servant came with a tray of teacups and the pot. She served it for Bai Shijue and Han Shun, then they waited until the old matriarch of the house arrived.
"Oh my, these two vigorous men are the guest today?" An old lady came from the sliding door. She was holding a cane and had a warm smile on her.
Based on her skin and garb, it was apparent that she was born from a wealthy family and lived a prosperous life.
Bai Shijue got up and helped the old lady to sit beside them, "Thank you so much, young man. I haven’t seen your face around here. Are you a new resident in the village?" She asked.
"Yes, we just came about a week ago. We’re staying in the inn," Bai Shijue said, lying to the fact that they just came last night.
"Ohh, and what you do for a living, young man?"

"And who is this young man?"
