Liu Ying put the banknotes away.
I couldn't help but think to myself, "Who can argue with that?"
However, Gu Lili's approach is indeed quite good.
If you don't accept favors or money from others, you will never be controlled by them or accept their unreasonable demands.
"Open these two jewelry boxes and take a look."
Liu Ying smiled and ended the topic, pointing to the jewelry box on the table.
Liu Miaoyin nodded and opened both boxes.
What comes into view is a citrine and a rose quartz.
Liu Miaoyin picked up the pink crystal and examined it closely, her eyes filled with amazement.
"Mother, what is this? I don't think I've ever seen it before."
Liu Ying looked at the two bracelets and was shocked.
If she wasn't mistaken, this should be a crystal bracelet.
Many years ago, when Liu Ying's father went to the border, he brought back a purple one and gave it to her.
According to her father, this small bracelet is worth several taels of silver.
However, she was later imprisoned in the backyard by Liu Yuanliang, and it is unknown whether he gave away the bracelet or what happened to it.
After she came out, she could not be found again.
When asked, Liu Yuanliang revealed that this scoundrel harbored resentment towards Liu Ying for making him patrol the streets every day, refusing to utter a single word.
Liu Ying was furious about this.
Liu Ying held the yellow one in her hand and examined it carefully for a while; it was indeed crystal.
“This is crystal,” Liu Ying replied.
Among the gifts Liu Ying gave to Gu Lili, she also prepared two sets of jewelry to mix in.
Gu Lili's actions were a tacit understanding between her and Gu Lili.
Liu Miaoyin had never heard of this before and looked at Liu Ying with curiosity.
Liu Ying patiently explained it to Liu Miaoyin, and only then did Liu Miaoyin understand what it was and how much it was worth.
Liu Miaoyin couldn't help but exclaim, "Mother, according to you, this bracelet is far too precious!"
It's not just the price, but also because it's rare.
Liu Ying nodded and said, "Then you'd better keep it carefully. You can keep the pink one."
Gu Lili was eager to return home, but because Yu Yirou had difficulty walking and Old Zhou was getting old, they traveled during the day and rested at inns at night. On the fifth day at noon, Gu Lili and her group finally arrived at Donghai Town.
Gu Lili figured that her family would probably have already eaten by the time they got home, so she simply led the group to Baiweixuan.
Gu Yun Chu had just finished serving the last group of customers at noon and was about to close up shop for a lunch break when she saw a white figure on the market.
Upon closer inspection, it looked like my own Chasewind.
Gu Yun Chu was somewhat incredulous. She quickly rubbed her eyes with both hands and looked again, only to find that it was indeed her family's carriage.
There was a familiar figure on the carriage. As the carriage drew closer and closer, Gu Yun Chu could no longer hold back and ran towards it.
"Sister! Sister!" Gu Yun Chu shouted excitedly as she ran.
Gu Lili was also happy to see Gu Yun Chu running towards her.
It's been over a month since I last saw Gu Yun Chu, and he seems to have grown taller and stronger.
"Yun Chu, slow down!" Gu Lili called out to her.
Even though it was only twenty or thirty steps away, Gu Yun Chu felt like it was a long way.
He wished he could sprout wings and fly right up to Gu Lili.
As I ran, my eyes welled up with tears.
I don't know if I was running too fast or if the sandstorm got into my eyes.
Gu Yun Chu felt her eyes were sore; after so many days of longing, she finally felt relieved.
A few steps away from Gu Yun Chu, Gu Li Li quickly reined in the horses, and Gu Yun Chu arrived in front of her.
"Sister, it really is you! I've missed you so much for over a month!" Gu Yun Chu said to Gu Li Li in a coquettish tone, just like when she was a child.
Although he was already engaged and the manager of Baiweixuan Restaurant, he would always be a child in front of Gu Lili.
They grew up relying on each other since they were little, and they had never been separated for so long.
Gu Lili was also very worried about him, and said with a smile, "I miss you all too. Quick, help me pull the carriage to the alley entrance. I'm hungry. Is there any food left? Get me some to eat."
Gu Yun Chu nodded repeatedly, took the reins from Gu Li Li, and led Zhui Feng towards the alley.
"Where are Brother Chang'an and Second Uncle?" Gu Yun Chu asked.
Gu Yun Chu thought that Gu Li Li was unaware of Chang An's identity, and because they were on the street, she did not make a fuss.
I plan to tell Gu Lili about this quietly when we enter the restaurant later.
Gu Lili pointed to the two carriages behind her, "Second Uncle stayed in Jiangdu, and your brother Chang'an is driving the carriages behind."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yun Chu's forehead was almost covered in cold sweat.
To order the Crown Prince to drive the carriage is utterly outrageous!
I wonder if Gu Lili will be afraid after she finds out Chang'an's identity.
Gu Yun Chu was tying up the carriage, and Chang An also pulled his own carriage over, preparing to tie it together.
"Yun Chu, how have you been?" Chang'an greeted Gu Yun Chu with a smile.
Gu Yun Chu, who was lost in thought, was startled when she suddenly heard Chang An's voice.
He was about to kneel on the ground when Chang'an quickly pulled him back.
"Your...Your Highness the Crown Prince..." Gu Yun Chu stammered.
Chang'an already knew that Gu Yun Chu knew his identity, so he wasn't surprised.
Seeing Gu Yun Chu so frightened, Chang An smiled gently and said, "Yun Chu, your sister knows my identity now. You can still call me Brother Chang An as before, and you don't need to kneel down."
Gu Yun Chu swallowed hard and nodded hastily.
Seeing that Gu Lili was about to lift Yu Yirou's wheelchair off the carriage, Chang'an quickly handed his reins to Gu Yun Chu.
He then went to help Gu Lili.
"Lili, let me help you!" Chang'an said, naturally taking the wheelchair from her.
Gu Yun Chu was somewhat stunned. It was hard to imagine that the majestic Crown Prince in the sketchbook could actually drive a carriage and carry things.
When Gu Lili saw Chang'an carrying the wheelchair down, she got into the carriage to help Yu Yirou.
"Mulan, Madam Yu, we've arrived at Donghai Town. Let's get off the carriage," Gu Lili said with a smile.
Both of them got carsick, so Gu Lili bought them some motion sickness medicine and calming medicine.
After taking motion sickness medicine, the two of them were almost asleep throughout the journey in the carriage.
Hearing Gu Lili call them, Xiao Mulan was filled with excitement.
"Mother, Mother, wake up, we've arrived." Little Mulan woke up Yu Yirou.
Yu Yirou was already weak, and the bumpy journey made her even worse. If it weren't for the medicine Gu Lili gave her, she probably would have suffered a lot.
Yu Yirou slowly woke up and, looking at the excited little Mulan, came to her senses.
With the help of Gu Lili and Xiao Mulian, Yu Yirou moved onto the carriage shaft.
Gu Lili jumped off the carriage and was about to pick him up when a familiar voice came from behind her.
