The conclusion Nan Xiangwan drew made the two people around him frown, as they were momentarily taken aback.
A-Dong, who had been standing to the side, simply listened to their small meeting, because he was usually just a superhuman who was responsible for moving things and did not participate in any of their internal decisions.
But when A Dong heard Nan Xiangwan say this, even he became suspicious.
"Miss Nan, I don't quite understand what you're saying?"
"After all, the people who came to the Ye family banquet today are all wealthy and powerful. How could he possibly help us cook?" A-Dong asked.
Nangong Chen had the same question, so he wanted to hear Nan Xiangwan's answer.
Zhan Siyu then laughed, seemingly understanding what Nan Xiangwan wanted to do.
No wonder everyone said that the two of them thought very similarly, so after Nan Xiangwan made this decision, Zhan Siyu immediately guessed his purpose.
"What are you laughing at? Did you guess it?" Nan Xiangwan asked.
Zhan Siyu nodded and said, "If we could change the way the food is served to barbecue, wouldn't that solve the problem?"
"But the old man doesn't seem to have ever eaten barbecue before. If we suddenly change the way we serve the dishes, the Ye family might be a little unhappy!"
Zhan Siyu suddenly thought about many issues, including how to solve the problems next; they had to find the answers from them.
Nangong Chen was utterly stunned. After learning the truth, he was completely amazed by Nan Xiangwan's method.
"Miss Nan, how can you be so smart?" Nangong Chen asked.
Nan Xiangwan laughed and said, "Don't flatter me. We still don't know if this method will even work!"
"If it really doesn't work, we'll just have to cook the dishes ourselves. We definitely can't make this seafood feast because the amount of work is just too much!"
"A seafood feast for 500 people, which can be prepared in four hours, is already an amazing speed. How could it be prepared in one hour?"
"If the old man doesn't agree, and we let them make their own food by barbecuing, then we'll have to think of another way!"
Nan Xiangwan breathed a sigh of relief. Time was already running out, so they naturally hoped that Old Master Ye would agree to this condition.
Zhan Siyu knew that it wasn't easy for Nan Xiangwan to come up with such a solution, but Old Master Ye might very well disagree with it.
"Wanwan, please don't set your expectations too high. I'm worried that the old man won't agree!" Zhan Siyu said.
He just didn't want Nan Xiangwan to be disappointed in the end, so he gave him a heads-up in advance.
Nan Xiangwan nodded and said, "I know, A-Zhan. We've both been through despair and hardship. Do you think I wouldn't understand this?"
The two exchanged a smile, seemingly in perfect sync.
Zhan Siyu can now rest assured. Nan Xiangwan is not the kind of person who is petty. On the contrary, Nan Xiangwan is actually smarter than many people and understands the big picture better than many people.
At this moment, Ye Chaoqun had already returned with the list. He had promised Nan Xiangwan that he would bring over the list of all the guests who came and went today.
"Sister Nan, the list you requested has been brought over!" Ye Chaoqun said.
Although making such a trip was indeed tiring, Ye Chaoqun was very happy because he felt he could help Nan Xiangwan.
"You've really worked hard, Chaoqun. How about we go find your grandfather together?" Nan Xiangwan said.
He not only wanted Ye Chaoqun to do him this favor, but more importantly, he hoped that Old Master Ye would allow them to change the format of this family banquet out of respect for Ye Chaoqun.
Ye Chaoqun didn't understand why Nan Xiangwan had suddenly changed her mind, but she still nodded in agreement.
“Sure, my grandfather went to the garden in front and just finished meeting with my uncles. He should be free now!” Ye Chaoqun said.
Nan Xiangwan nodded. Since Grandpa Ye had time, he would naturally take this opportunity to go and find him.
“Okay, let’s go find your grandfather now!” Nan Xiangwan said.
Ye Chaoqun led the two people to the edge of the garden, which was a very beautiful rose garden, almost identical to that famous tourist attraction.
“My grandmother loved roses when she was young, so my grandfather spent a lot of money to plant a rose garden here!” Ye Chaoqun said.
Zhan Siyu and Nangong Chen were truly dumbfounded; as expected, the rich really do spend lavishly.
"Grandpa Ye is quite the romantic!" Nan Xiangwan seemed a little surprised.
Ye Chaoqun said with a smile, "Yes, that's the kind of person my grandfather was. Others might not be able to tell, but we all know he was a really good person!"
As they talked about Old Master Ye's past, they walked into the garden.
When Old Master Ye saw them return, he already knew what had happened.
After all, this is the Ye family's residence, and nothing that happens can escape his watchful eye.
On the surface, however, Old Master Ye would definitely have to pretend that he knew nothing, because if he brought up the matter himself, then Ye would have to help. Even if he did have to help, he would have to be the one who was passive.
"Chaoqun, why are you always taking people around?" Grandpa Ye asked.
“Miss Nan is very busy, and almost all of our relatives are here. The family banquet is about to begin. Miss Nan should be in the kitchen preparing now, right? You shouldn’t be so willful!” the old man said.
Ye Chaoqun was in a bad mood after being reprimanded for no reason.
"Grandpa... I didn't say anything, how could you make such assumptions about me?" Ye Chaoqun said helplessly.
Grandpa Ye let out a breath. This girl really knows how to annoy people; even a single sentence she utters can make someone angry.
"Alright, Miss Nan, have you encountered some difficulties again? If I can help, I will do my best!" said Grandpa Ye.
He has raised this topic more than once, and he has basically succeeded in doing so.
Nan Xiangwan said with a smile, "We will definitely remember the kindness that Grandpa Ye has shown us. We do have a favor to ask of you this time!"
“I know we shouldn’t bother Grandpa Ye with such trivial matters, but we’ve encountered a major issue this time. Could you please come with us to the kitchen?”
Nan Xiangwan extended an invitation to Grandpa Ye, hoping that he could go to the kitchen with her.
Grandpa Ye frowned and said, "Why so suddenly? Did you encounter any problems while cooking the food?"
