Alas!
Yun Wanyao sighed. Ah Tang had always been wise, yet she did not pick up on the underlying meaning of her words. This could only mean that Ah Tang trusted the maid completely and was unwilling to suspect her in the slightest.
In this way, she couldn't make things too obvious.
"To err is human. Even if your maid is clever, there is no guarantee she wouldn't accidentally miscommunicate something, without even realizing it herself."
"Ah Tang, this is a significant matter. I think it's best if you ask Mr. Xie about it 'face-to-face.' No matter what, make plans only after you've asked him."
"If you distance yourself from Mr. Xie based solely on this, it would be a shame."
"Exactly, exactly. I think Ah Yao makes a good point, cousin. It's better to ask in person. If you feel constrained by the Jiang Family's reputation, or your uncle, and are hesitant to see Mr. Xie, I can ask him on your behalf. I assure you, I'll get a clear answer."
