After hearing Situ Changge's explanation, Xiang Yun suddenly realized and praised with enlightenment, "Oh! Quite smart indeed!"
Situ Changge humbly said, "Madam flatters me too much."
Xiang Yun replied, "You're too modest, smart is smart. Otherwise, Cai Wei wouldn't have let someone as young as you be the big shopkeeper of a ginseng business. Oh, right, Cai Wei told me to wait for her here. You can go on with your tasks. Don't worry about me!"
Upon hearing this, Situ Changge said, "Since the boss has invited Madam, the boss should also be arriving soon. Madam, please go inside and sit down while you wait!" By "inside," he referred to the shop's main hall, which was divided into two by an eight-panel screen depicting flowers, birds, and landscape, creating a small tea room.
