Lady Wu Wang sat on the kang with Wu Jiayu, while Xiao Xi brought in two cups of tea on a tray. Lian Zhizhi personally served the tea to Lady Wu Wang, who accepted it with a smile and pulled Lian Zhizhi to sit beside her.
Every time Lady Wu Wang visited, Lian Zhizhi personally attended to her. Unless Lady Wu Wang asked her to sit, she would remain standing. Even after being told several times, Lian Zhizhi kept up this manner. Due to this behavior, Lady Wu Wang often praised Lian Zhizhi in front of Lady Zhang and others, saying, "Zhizhi is truly endearing; her actions and demeanor set her apart from ordinary girls of noble families and truly garner respect."
After serving the tea, Xiao Xi then brought out four types of homemade snacks.
