The buffet quickly started, with Madam Meng preparing to collect her own food. Meng Jinxiu eagerly offered, "Grandmother, let my sister and I get it for you. Just let us know what you'd like to eat."
Madam Meng chuckled, "I'm old, but it doesn't mean I can't get moving. If this is today's rule, I need to do it myself, it's more fun this way."
Meng Jinxiu and Meng Jinxia found her words reasonable, so they didn't insist and accompanied her to get food.
Bai Ruozhu carried her food plate around, introducing the dishes to everyone with a radiant smile. She also reminded the ladies not to forget getting bird's nest soup from the window across the room, and asked the elders like Lady Meng if they needed anything. She was enjoying the bustle of the party.
