Rong Li said hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, this is really unfair to me. It was only after I came to the banquet that I realized that Shi Wei didn't explain herself clearly, so I came up with this urgent plan to help you. If I can't help, it would be a waste of my time."
Sun Yannan said, "That doesn't make sense. My husband originally asked this servant to order food from four big restaurants. For some reason, he didn't order a single dish from any of the four restaurants, and when he came out, he ran into your maid.
This maid said she was going home to get you a handkerchief, but I don't know why we have to go to Hefenglou, one of the four restaurants, to get from our house to Rong's house. Isn't that a long way around? It seems like she's waiting for our servant there, and we know he won't be able to order any food.
As he was talking, the dishes were already served. Sun Yannan said, "This is what the young lady likes to eat. She should eat more."
As she spoke, she picked up a large piece of squirrel fish and scooped some mapo tofu with a spoon, and placed them on the plate and bowl in front of Rong Li.

She was really afraid of making a fool of herself in front of others, so she forced herself to swallow the fish. Sun Yannan looked at her with a smile and said, "Does it taste good? Try this mapo tofu."
Rong Li had no choice but to take another bite. This time, he couldn't help but spit out the tofu because it had turned sour.
The young master of the Wu family and the young master of the Yan family couldn't help but pick up some of the dishes out of curiosity, then spit them out. They didn't know what to say, so they just smiled awkwardly.
Sun Yannan said, "The young lady is kind-hearted, and I am grateful. But you led my servant to such a restaurant and ordered such dishes. I don't know how you plan to help me."
At this moment, Xiaonian and Xiaoyue hurried over with someone, and Xiaonian whispered a few words in front of Sun Yanan.
