After setting the snacks on the table, the two little maids went to fetch warm water and brought cloths inside.
"Mom, let's eat while it's hot." Lady Zhang first put down her needlework and called for Lady Li and Lian Manman to wash their hands and eat some snacks. "Xiao Qi, you and your father come over to eat too."
The whole family washed their hands and enjoyed the snacks with hot tea.
There were two plates of snacks, one of which was date paste cake. Soft and fragrant, the family loved it.
Lian Shouxin picked up a piece of date paste cake, not putting it directly into his mouth but rather looking slightly dazed.
"Hubby, why don't we pick a couple of these date paste cakes and send them to Old Master Lian?" Lady Zhang noticed Lian Shouxin's daze and, after thinking for a moment, tentatively suggested.
Lian Manman's family often sent snacks to Old Master Lian, including these date paste cakes, which were his favorite.
Lian Shouxin hesitated and didn't speak.
