She tentatively soothed the woman, "Aunt Xu, don't be afraid, we won't hurt you."
"Are you hungry? I'll feed you some osmanthus cake." Lin Qiao took a piece of osmanthus cake from her sleeve and held it to the woman's mouth.
The woman was probably starving, she opened her mouth and bit down. Luckily, Lin Qiao withdrew her hand quickly, or she would have been bitten.
She quickly finished a piece of pastry.
Lin Qiao was just about to have Song Tingfan fetch some food from the carriage when he was already out of the courtyard and soon returned with food and water.
There wasn't much to eat, only a few pieces of pastry. The woman still wanted to eat, looking at her hand without moving.
Lin Qiao fed her two sips of water, "Wait, we'll eat when we get home."
It wasn't that she didn't want to give her anything to eat, she was just afraid the woman might not be able to handle too much food at once.
