Madam Yin gently patted Ye Xinyan's arm. Although she was very satisfied with her daughter's current situation, there were also concerns weighing on her heart.
"Ah Yan, you are a young lady and, although capable, you shouldn't work too hard. Your mother's dowry wasn't small to begin with, and the Pastry House we opened has been thriving. We've made a tidy sum of silver this past year. I will manage well, and all the silver I earn is yours, Ah Yan. You don't have to work as hard as you did earlier, waking up at dawn and busying yourself till dusk. If you really wish to work, just treat it as a distraction, something to while away the time and keep your spirits up."
Ye Xinyan mumbled an acknowledgment, then looking at the serving girls and Nanny Huang in the room, she said to Madam Yin, "Mother, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Upon hearing these words from the young miss, Nanny Huang knew she had private matters to discuss with the wife of the heir apparent.
