“Yes. I have no other intention. I was worried that the guests would not be accustomed to the meals in the house, so I wanted to add two dishes to the kitchen. I specially gave the pastries to the chef and instructed that she must not mention to anyone that the two pastries came from me.” Wei Qingwan did not panic and softly explained.

Before doing anything, she had already anticipated that Yun Shi would come to ask, so she had already prepared her response.

Yun Shi sighed, “Next time you have such thoughts, you should have told Mother in advance. If you didn’t tell Mother in advance and did this without permission, you are being disobedient.”

“It’s my fault, my thought was simple. I was thinking that if I just prepared two more pastries, our guest would only think that it was prepared by the mansion’s kitchen, so I didn’t think much about it.”

Wei Qingwan’s explanation was almost the same as Yun Shi’s speculation.

As expected, she was right. Her daughter was just thinking about the family.

After all, before this, no one knew that Ruo’er’s maid’s cooking skills were so good, and there was no problem with having extra preparation.

“Well, there’s nothing wrong, it’s just that your father doesn’t approve of your behavior. Don’t do such things again next time.” Yun Shi advised.

“Is Father… angry?” Wei Qingwan was startled.

“He isn’t angry with you, he just thinks that what you did is inappropriate.” Yun Shi said.

Upon hearing this, Wei Qingwan lowered her head sadly, tears of grievance lingering in her eyes.

Seeing the situation, Yun Shi added, “Your father doesn’t have any other intention of blaming you, he’s just worried that you have inappropriate intentions. Mother has already told him, and he also hopes that he’s just overthinking it. Mother will explain it to him later.”

Wei Qingwan bit her lip and said, “Mother understands that I have no other thoughts. A few days ago, I made a mistake and stayed indoors. I had deeply reflected on myself, only thinking about how to make up for my mistake. How dare I have any other thoughts.”

“Mother confined you because Mother hopes you can reflect on it and have a better way to deal with such things next time. Now that you can realize your own misdemeanor, Mother is very relieved.”

“I know that, so I do not resent Mother at all.”

“Well, it’s good that you can think this way.” Yun Shi nodded in relief.

“By the way, mother, how did the noble guests evaluate today’s meal?” Wei Qingwan asked.

“The evaluation was very good, they were very satisfied.” Yun Shi replied.

“Really? That’s really great.” Wei Qingwan’s face was full of joy.

“But the noble guests didn’t eat your two pastries.” Yun Shi said.

“Didn’t eat?” Wei Qingwan’s expression froze, and the joy on her face froze a little.

“The dishes on the table were very full, so when the pastries arrived, they had no appetite left. Mother heard that Young Master Lu took a bite, but it didn’t suit his taste,” Yun Shi said.

Yun Shi was also very surprised by this matter. Her daughter’s osmanthus cake and almond cake were unique, so she didn’t expect them to be compared to her eldest daughter’s maid.

The smile on Wei Qingwan’s face became forced, but she still continued to praise, “Then the dishes made by my sister’s maid should be very delicious.”

“Mother hasn’t tasted it either, but now it seems that the Xie siblings weren’t just praising it just to appear polite; there really is truth to it.” Yun Shi remarked with a sigh.

“Um…” Wei Qingwan responded softly, with a forced smile.

Yun Shi left after chatting with Wei Qingwan for a while longer.

After Yun Shi left, Wei Qingwan’s smile completely disappeared from her face.

Why did things turn out this way?

She really didn’t plan to do anything with two plates of cakes, but in her plan, she could at least make contributions to her family.
