As Su Liuer expected, all the ordered dishes were sold out.
It was already dark outside, so Su Liuer asked Dali and Xiaoli to go back to the inn first, while she sent Gulanyue home.
Dali and Xiaoli had no objection at all. The two of them combined were not as powerful as the eldest brother half and half again. Of course, it would be safer and more reliable for the eldest brother to send Miss Gu back.
Gu Lanyue didn't find it strange. She was just happy in her heart and kept talking along the way.
Arriving at the back door of the ancient mansion, it was the door closest to her yard that Gu Lanyue had mentioned before.
Gu Lanyue said to Su Liuer, "Liuer, wait here for me. I have something to give you. I'll be quick, so please wait for me!"
Su Liuer was already here, so it didn't matter if she waited a little longer, so she smiled and nodded.
Gu Lanyue trotted into the house.
There was also someone guarding the back door, a strong woman and an ordinary servant.
One of them is responsible for checking people entering and leaving, and the other is responsible for stopping people who cannot enter and leave or reporting the situation.
As soon as Gulanyue left, the servant ran away immediately.
Su Liuer was standing outside the door. She didn't care about what was happening inside and didn't see the servant running away.
But even if she saw it, she wouldn't care.
How could she have such wide ties with other people's servants?
Gu Lanyue did come back very quickly. She was a little out of breath from jogging all the way, and her body was hot.
"Liu'er, this is for you!" Gu Lanyue handed the package in her hand to Su Liu'er.
Su Liuer looked down and saw that the cloth used to wrap the package was very expensive, so the things inside must be even more valuable.
Before she could say anything to reject Gu Lanyue's kindness, Gu Lanyue spoke first:
"This is a thank you gift for you. I never thanked you properly before you saved me."
"Without me here, you'll just lose some money, and it won't be considered as saving you." Su Liuer didn't take the package and told the truth.
Gu Lanyue's eyes widened when she heard this. "If you weren't here, I'd have lost a lot of money. What's so little about this? Besides, you haven't even seen what's inside. Don't be so quick to refuse."
As she spoke, she handed the package forward again.
Su Liuer took it first and was about to open it to see what was inside.
"Liu'er, go back and take a look. I'll meet you at the inn tomorrow morning for breakfast. I'll be back first!"
Gu Lanyue finished speaking quickly, then turned and ran into the door, running away without looking back.
Su Liuer, standing outside the door, looked down at the package tied in a knot in her hand.
She shook her head in a somewhat amusing manner. Was this little girl still trying to trick her?
But Gu Lanyue had already run inside, so Su Liuer couldn't go in to find her.
I had no choice but to take the package and go back to the inn.
Not long after she left, the servant who had just run away came back.
"Where is the person?" he asked the woman breathlessly.
"She's already left. She took a package that the Third Miss gave her. I didn't see what was inside because it wasn't opened. I vaguely heard the Third Miss say it was a thank-you gift. It seemed like Madam Su had made a lot of money for the Third Miss or something. My ears aren't very good, and I couldn't hear clearly from so far away."
The servant nodded, then hurried away.
The woman curled her lips and closed the door. She said that Madam Su was much prettier than Aunt Fang, younger, and had a close relationship with the Third Young Miss. If she were the master, she would also choose Madam Su.
