Chapter 1324: Chapter 1324: An Anxious Expression
Su Yunjin and Gu Ya stood there without moving.
Neither of them reached for Master ng’s congratulatory gift.
“Master ng, I appreciate your kindness,” Gu Ya said, “but as my wife and I still don’t know whether we are expecting a boy or a girl, if we have a son, he certainly can’t beco Prince Rui’s daughter-in-law. Therefore, you should take your gift back for now!” Gu Ya’s refusal was reasonable and polite.
He had not only saved Master ng’s face but also declined Master ng’s gift. Su Yunjin had no intention of accepting the gift from Master ng either.
Master ng was neither a relative nor an acquaintance and had no forr relations with them. His sudden gesture of presenting a gift was rely to curry favor because of the words spoken by Prince Rui’s wife. Neither Su Yunjin nor Gu Ya intended to accept a gift from such a person. However, when soone kindly offers a gift, especially when the giver is a wealthy figure like Master ng in the town and everyone is in business, it’s best to avoid causing loss of face by finding an excuse to refuse the gift.
Despite Su Yunjin and Gu Ya’s refusal to accept the gift, Master ng still smiled, not showing any emotion, “Young Master Gu, Mrs. Gu, since I have already brought the gift, there is no reason to take it back. The gift is not worth much. I simply wish to make friends with both of you today, please accept it as a token of our new acquaintance. I wonder if both of you are willing to make my acquaintance?”
Master ng revealed his true intention for the visit, which wasn’t to give a gift but to beco friends with Su Yunjin and Gu Ya.
Seeing that it was a friendly offering, and as they were businesspeople who could benefit from more contacts, Gu Ya no longer refused Master ng’s gift.
When Master ng saw that Gu Ya accepted the gift, he was secretly pleased. As long as Su Yunjin and Gu Ya were willing to accept his gift, his objective was achieved.
Su Yunjin was not the type to take advantage of others. Having accepted Master ng’s gift, she imdiately instructed her servants to prepare a return gift. Thus, they were even.
After sending Master ng away, in the next two days, Su Yunjin and Gu Ya received many congratulatory gifts from people just like Master ng, who ca because of the comnt made by Prince Rui’s wife. It wasn’t easy to find a family that could marry into Prince Rui’s residence, so anyone in the town with a certain reputation ca to make connections.
Now was the opportunity to build ties; later, when Su Yunjin and Gu Ya’s daughter actually beca the wife of Prince Rui’s Princely Heir, it would be their chance to reap the benefits, wouldn’t it?
At first, Su Yunjin and Gu Ya grudgingly accepted the gifts, but as the number of people increased, they beca tired of dealing with them.
They declared to everyone that they would no longer accept any congratulatory gifts.
This ssage proved effective; just a day later, no more visitors ca to Zuixiang Restaurant with gifts. Freed from the influx of visitors, Su Yunjin and Gu Ya finally had so peace.
Lazily leaning back in her soft chair, Su Yunjin enjoyed the nourishing soup sent by her mother-in-law, Mrs. An. With no one bringing gifts anymore, she felt much more relaxed.
Dealing with the gift-givers every day had been exhausting for Su Yunjin. Thankfully, using Gu Ya’s tactic, they had managed to stop the influx.
“Husband, we finally got rid of all those people. It feels so good,” Su Yunjin stretched languidly.
Having dealt with the gift-giving affair, it was ti to resu focusing on her eldest brother’s situation.
Just then, her second sister, Su Ningxiu, rushed in from outside, “Little sister, it’s terrible, our eldest brother has gone missing!” Su Ningxiu was clearly anxious and in a panic.
