Originally just a casual statement, Ye Binyi deliberately added, "Jinghuai is right. If you don't believe me, you can ask Sangsang. Our family rarely eats leftovers. The leftovers today are an exception, just happened to coincide with your visit. Throwing out a meal is nothing, it's neither a pity nor a waste."
The tone was leisurely yet condescending. Grandma Tian and Second Aunt Tian suddenly realized—why throw out the food? Was it because they'd eaten it? Ah, so that's the meaning behind it, huh? They just arrived today, and suddenly there are leftovers? Are they implying they lost their appetite eating with them? Their leftovers—better to throw them out than keep them around to spoil their mood, is that it?
Grandma Tian and Second Aunt Tian weren't particularly angry about it—what annoyed them was the food being wasted. Having been frugal all their lives, they genuinely saw it as wasteful! As if the money being thrown away was their own!
