Xiao Dengzi didn't stand on ceremony. He led his men and carried the gifts to the front hall. After introducing himself, he stepped forward and respectfully bowed to Lin Yun: "This must be Miss Lin. These are gifts that the master specially selected for you: two bolts of brocade, a set of ruby ​​jewelry, a pair of jade bracelets, and several other gifts."

As he spoke, he ordered his men to unfurl the red cloth.

Under the sunlight, the brocade shimmered with iridescent light, the rubies sparkled, and the jade was crystal clear, so dazzling that one could hardly open their eyes.

Lin's parents stared in disbelief, and Lin Feng gasped, "How much silver is this worth?"

The eunuch smiled but did not answer. He simply said to Lin Yun, "My master said that if you need anything, please feel free to ask."

Lin Yun was startled. Although she didn't know why the Fourth Master wanted to give her a gift, she forced herself to remain calm and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but this gift is too precious. I really don't deserve it."

The eunuch waved his hand: "Miss, there's no need to refuse. The master said it's just a small token of our appreciation."

"Miss Lin, now that the gift has been delivered, we'll take our leave." After saying this, he bowed to everyone and prepared to leave with his entourage.

Lin Yun quickly called out, "Please wait a moment." Then she took out a silver note from her sleeve and lightly slipped it into Xiao Dengzi's hand.

"It's so hot, I'm sorry to have troubled you to make this trip, Father-in-law."

The little stool quickly declined, not daring to accept it.

Just kidding, if his godfather knew he came to deliver gifts and even took money back with him, he'd break his legs.

Lin Yun said it was fine, and if anything went wrong, she could take the blame.

Only then did Xiao Dengzi dare to accept the gift, and said with a beaming smile, "Thank you very much, Miss Lin. I'll go back and report now. Please wait."

After saying this, he bowed to Lin Yun and turned to leave.

Xie Yu stood at the door, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.

He recognized the eunuch's attire; although he wasn't wearing palace robes, his demeanor and bearing clearly indicated that he was from the palace.

He was secretly shocked: "When did Lin Yun climb such a high branch?" Looking at the people in the Lin family, Lin's father and mother were still immersed in shock.

Lin Feng, looking excited, pulled Lin Yun aside and asked, "Yun'er, what exactly is going on? Who is that 'master'?" Lin Yun shook her head: "Big brother, I don't know either."

Perhaps it was to thank her for giving him the blueprints for the textile machine?

She glanced at Xie Yu standing not far away and said indifferently, "Young Master Xie, I have matters to attend to at my residence today, so I will not keep you any longer."

Xie Yu forced a smile: "It's alright, I'll visit again another day." After saying that, he turned and left, but his back looked somewhat disheveled.
