Chương 78: Chapter 78 It's Time to Talk

The back hall was a partition between the kitchen and the front hall, frequented only by busy servants and thus distantly orderly.

Upon entering the back hall, Ye Xinyan placed the items she carried on the table, unfolded the quilt, and removed the lid of the wooden tub to reveal the small iron bucket containing the ice cream. A cool mist emanated from both the insulating layer of the tub and the surface of the ice cream, piquing Shopkeeper He's interest.

At this point, Shopkeeper He had yet to realize that the contents of the small bucket were frozen solid.

Ye Xinyan examined the spoon, a delicate porcelain one for soup. Well, given the circumstances, it would have to suffice.
