Can anyone read the part after お茶を? It looks like さし*something*れに to my eyes, and I can't figure it out.

3. 心配して来てはみたけど何かできないかしら…
I'm not sure if I've seen this kind of structure before. Can someone please explain it?
1. No idea. Never heard it.

2.  「お茶をさし入れに」

3. 「きてみる」 + 「は」. "I came over to see what was going on and how I might be of help."
This 「は」 reflects a very Japanese way of thinking. You decided to come but found out that there was nothing you could do to help; therefore, you do not want to sound as if your arrival was worth mentioning.


Your Japanese proficiency shall be in direct proportion
to your true interest in the Japanese Mind.
