Question

Vasu was helping his mother in laying the table when they had some guests on dinner. Vasu was about to sprinkle salt on salad for dressing. His mother stopped him from doing so and told him that it is so early to sprinkle salt on the salad, he should do so only when they are seated for having dinner.
