Eldest Miss Shi wanted to shamelessly barge inside and eat with her father but she still had a bit of shame left in her heart which was why she cleared her throat and then said in a polite voice, " Little Tian, it's like this my granddaughter wants to eat some lettuce wraps. If you don't mind can you ask Father for his permission?"
Xiao Tian did not wish to agree with such a selfish request but even so, when he looked at the teary face of the young mistress, he couldn't bring himself to be heartless. He sighed and agreed, " Please wait here for a minute, Eldest missy. I will go and ask my master." But then he paused and added, "It's not that I don't want to invite you all inside the courtyard but the dishes are limited, as master always ate alone and his appetite is not as good as it used to be, so there might not be enough for everyone."
