He Yi was unsure of how to answer Old Lady Yi's thorough questions.
Fang Yaqin pulled on her mother-in-law's sleeve hastily and whispered, "Mother, be subtle."
She could empathize with Old Lady Yi as the whole family had been worried for Yi Liangze for not marrying at such an age. They had been making a great effort in introducing ladies to him but he was never interested in the slight bit. Also, he never made friends with women, except for Yu Shujun. Therefore, the pretty and sophisticated young lady was actually a delightful surprise for Old Lady Yi and Fang Yaqin.
"Cough." Old Lady Yi chuckled to ease up the awkwardness when she realized that she had been too eager with her questions. "Please excuse me, Miss He. I can't seem to change my old habit of getting impatient easily!"
He Yi replied hurriedly, "Madam, you're too kind! People who tend to be impatient are direct and easier to blend with."
