Kabanata 118: Do You Want to See Susu?

The people started rallying, shouting their indignation.

Little Chuan was embarrassed. "I... I don't..."

"Don't worry. We'll handle this," Ye Jiayao assured him.

Ah Xing brought the mooncakes out and Ye Jiayao said, "Take this eunuch and escort him to the back door."

Eunuch Little Chuan dutifully followed behind Ah Xing.

Manager Qian ran down from upstairs when he heard the racket that the people were making. "What is going on? What's with all that noise?"

Ye Jiayao took huge steps outside and stood at the door. "What are you shouting for?"

"You gave someone ten mooncakes when you said five is the limit!" someone shouted angrily.

"That's unfair!"

"He didn't even stand in the line!"

Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes and snapped back, "He's from the palace! Do you want me to call him back so you can air your grievances with him?"

The angry crowd fell silent.
