"Who is it?"
Su Yunjin was also very curious.
Gu Yan strode outside, Su Yunjin didn’t delay, she also picked up her skirt and followed, and once again, a series of regular and polite knocking sounds ca from the door.
This ti, along with the knocks, there was also a man’s voice, "Young Master Gu, Madam Gu, are you both at ho?" The speaker was a middle-aged man.
The man’s voice was steady and resonant.
"Who are you...?" Gu Yan opened the door and couldn’t help but be surprised when he saw the group of people outside; he didn’t recognize any of them.
Su Yunjin ca forward and peered outside, only to see that there was a carriage and about a dozen excellent horses outside, with a man in black robes sitting atop each one.
These people seed to be quite important.
Where on earth had they co from?
Su Yunjin pondered to herself.
The leader of the group responded with a fist and palm salute while smiling, "Young Master Gu, Madam Gu, we are sent by Prince Rui Residence, by Prince and Princess Rui themselves. With the New Year approaching, the Princess and the Prince have sent us to deliver so New Year’s gifts to you both."
"You’re people sent by the Princess?" Upon hearing that these people were sent by Princess Rui, Su Yunjin imdiately brightened up. Ever since Princess Rui returned to Jincheng, Su Yunjin had not seen her again. Having returned to Jincheng, how was Princess Rui faring?
After her elation, Su Yunjin asked with a smile, "Big brother, may I know if the Princess is doing well in Jincheng?" At a place like Prince Rui Residence, it was inevitable for the Princess to encounter sches and plots after her return.
However, Princess Rui’s status ant she could not avoid these matters. As soon as she had returned, she announced the forthcoming marriage of the Princely Heir’s wife.
Everyone at Prince Rui Residence knew now that Su Yunjin was carrying the future wife of the Princely Heir in her womb. These people, seeing Su Yunjin, treated her with great respect.
After all, Su Yunjin was the future mother of their Princely Heir’s wife; who would dare to slight her? The man politely replied, "Madam Gu, our Princess is doing well in Jincheng, thank you for your concern."
Su Yunjin nodded.
It seed unlikely that Princess Rui would encounter any problems in Jincheng. Most of the concubines at Prince Rui Residence had been sent away by Prince Rui, and the last ti at Prince Qi Residence, Su Yunjin could tell that Prince Rui was quite attentive to Princess Rui. Moreover, Princess Rui had given birth to the heir, a cherished grandchild of the Empress Dowager, so she wouldn’t allow anyone to harm the Princess or the child.
The visitors had co to deliver New Year’s gifts. After the man finished speaking, he signalled with his eyes for the attendants who ca with him to bring the gifts from the carriage into Su Yunjin’s house.
These people had co from far away, so Su Yunjin hurriedly instructed Aunt Liang to prepare so hot tea. Once the visitors had delivered the New Year’s gifts, they could each be welcod with a cup of piping hot tea.
While Su Yunjin was busying herself with the tea arrangents, Gu Yan had already sat down with the middle-aged man who had responded earlier, by the fire in the courtyard. The man was followed by two maidservants, both of whom were paying their respects to Gu Yan, who gave them a faint nod.
The two maidservants then moved to stand behind Gu Yan.
From the doorway of the kitchen, Su Yunjin looked at the scene in the courtyard and couldn’t help but feel astonished. What was going on? It seed like the two maidservants were about to stay behind. Could it be that Princess Rui’s New Year’s gifts included those two maidservants as well?
A wave of confusion.
Su Yunjin felt it was strange.
"Yunjin, co here!" Seeing his little wife, Gu Yan waved for her to co over.
Originally, Su Yunjin had also planned to ask what was happening, but with Gu Yan’s gesture, she stepped forward and walked over.
