In Lin Sanshui’s eyes, these pampered young masters are not easy to deal with.
The reason Young Master Nan originally got involved with Lin Man’s family was to help them.
But now, they are asking Lin Man’s family to return, doesn’t this make Young Master Nan seem a bit ddleso?
Therefore, Lin Sanshui initially hesitated to agree with the village chief’s request, but unexpectedly, the chief’s persuasion turned into compulsion.
"Don’t worry, Dad. Nan treats like a little sister. Even if I say sothing wrong, he shouldn’t mind. If he doesn’t want to agree, he can just take it as a joke."
"Alright, go ahead then." Lin Sanshui suddenly rembered, "By the way, doesn’t Young Master Nan like the food you make? Why don’t you prepare a bit of food for him to take along?"
Gu Nian thought for a mont, "Better not, we don’t have much to cook with at ho. He has everything over there; if he wants to eat, I’ll cook at his place."
With that, Gu Nian dashed off.
Young Master Nan is only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, yet whenever Gu Nian visits, he is either reading or sipping tea.
Living peacefully, like a seventy or eighty-year-old grandpa.
"Master, Miss Gu is here!" Wuxin reminded with a smile, as only Gu Nian’s presence could elicit a trace of a smile on their master’s face.
Usually, the master showed a calm deanor, devoid of any emotional waves, seemingly indifferent to everything, as if ready to transcend to immortality in the next mont.
Only when Miss Gu visited, did the master appear more grounded.
Hearing Gu Nian had arrived, Nan Jin Yu turned around and smiled, "Why are you here at this hour? In such hot weather, don’t forget to shield yourself, getting tanned wouldn’t be cute."
Then, Nan Jin Yu instructed Wuxin, "Cut so waterlon to relieve this girl’s sumr heat."
"Waterlon?" Gu Nian’s eyes instantly brightened.
She had so in her space but had never seen it outside, so she could only eat secretly inside, not daring to take it out.
Her surprised expression was completely caught by Nan Jin Yu, "What? So surprised?"
"Um..." Gu Nian blad herself for being careless, "Of course, anything Nan ntions must taste amazing, how can I not be surprised!"
"It’s just ordinary stuff, haven’t you eaten it before?" Nan Jin Yu asked her with a smile.
Her reaction just now was clearly shock rather than curiosity.
Unbeknownst to Gu Nian, with Nan Jin Yu’s keen perception, even a slight reaction from her could arouse his suspicion.
Gu Nian blinked, unsure of whether she should have eaten it or not.
However, seeing Nan Jin Yu’s inquisitive gaze, she chuckled foolishly, "What might be ordinary to Nan is not necessarily ordinary to us. I’ve heard of it before but indeed haven’t tasted it."
Gu Nian’s response was cautious enough but didn’t notice Nan Jin Yu’s deepening smile.
Wuxin ca out of the house with sliced waterlon, placing it on the stone table in the courtyard, "Miss Gu, please try it, these are tribute from the Western Region. Apart from the palace, only our master can enjoy them."
It’s not Wuxin boasting; the journey from the Western Region is long and difficult, especially with items that will spoil over ti. Very few actually reach Yunyao, and even the palace’s most beloved concubines can only acquire so.
