Shao Yao walked cautiously and steadily, step by step, and when she reached the carriage, she said, "This maid is a little late, as I feared spilling the tea, so I walked a bit slowly. Please forgive me, ladies."
"This is Junshan Silver Needle that the Marquis instructed this maid to bring," Shao Yao said, "The Marquis was concerned that the two ladies didn't bring any tea and could choke on the snacks."
Fu Mingzhu glanced at Fu Shinian and then said, "Thank you, Marquis. I didn't expect the Marquis to be so meticulous."
"The Marquis instructed this maid to attend to both ladies here directly," Shao Yao said.
"How could we accept this?" Fu Mingzhu said politely.
"It's no bother at all, as the Marquis doesn't require much service from this maid anyway." Shao Yao smiled as she boarded the carriage, leaving Fu Mingzhu and Fu Shinian with no way to refuse.
Only then did Jing Lai smile and say, "I'll go report to the Marquis that everything has been delivered."
