Chapter 1121: Chapter 1121: Return to Yao Family
Shu Yu said, “Recently, people in the capital have been on edge, so it was not a good ti for to visit you. But now that things have settled down, I am indeed planning to co by.”
As she spoke, she stood up and went to the adjacent room to fetch a package.
“I also want to thank you for the Coming-of-age Ceremony gift you sent ; I really liked it. This ti I’m in the capital, my father and mother have prepared so special products from Jiangyuan County, originally intending to send them to you last ti.”
Qi Chan was not formal with her and accepted the package, handing it over to the attendants in the yard.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a few more monts before Qi Chan finally rembered the purpose of his visit.
He looked at ng Yunzheng, who had been a silent background figure, and hesitated.
Initially, he indeed intended to persuade him to stay in the capital and serve as an official. He had already thought of the reasons and ways of persuasion and felt it wouldn’t be difficult. But upon seeing Shu Yu, he sohow felt the likelihood of success was low.
However… Qi Chan still felt it was a pity, and he wanted to try.
“Young Master ng, you really don’t plan to stay in the capital?”
ng Yunzheng smiled and said, “Lord Qi, I have considered it very thoroughly.”
Qi Chan looked at Shu Yu, “You won’t persuade him?”
Shu Yu chuckled, “Lord Qi, we have our own plans. But I assure you, his talent will not be wasted.”
Qi Chan raised his eyebrows, aning that he wouldn’t spend his life idly in a small county town?
With things said to this point, Qi Chan knew further persuasion would be unhelpful.
“Alright, you two are smart and capable. Seeing you together, I suspect that even in a small county town, you might stir up quite a commotion.”
Shu Yu, “…” Why does this seem more like sarcasm than praise?
Seeing that it was getting late, Qi Chan prepared to leave.
He originally wanted to invite Shu Yu to be a guest at the Qi Family, but on second thought, he chose not to ntion it.
He’s quite busy himself, and Shu Yu is unfamiliar with the other mbers of the Qi Family, so it would be uncomfortable.
Qi Chan left, no longer insisting on persuading ng Yunzheng, Shu Yu felt a sense of relief.
After eting with Qi Chan, Shu Yu didn’t plan to visit the Qi Family again, but a visit to the Yao Family was still necessary.
It was rare to co to the capital; Lu Erbai had also given Shu Yu a drawing to bring over to show Yao Tianqin.
Just uncertain if those annoying folks from the Yao Family were still around.
The next day, Shu Yu brought Ying Xi along again, carrying things to head to the Yao Family.
This ti, there was no need for Shu Yu to step forward and ask; as soon as the gatekeeper saw Ying Xi, he imdiately said, “Miss, please hold on a mont, I will report this to the master.”
Shu Yu and Ying Xi exchanged glances as the gatekeeper ran inside.
After a while, he ca back out, accompanied by an old woman.
The old woman approached with a smile and said, “This old servant’s surna is Zhu, the miss may call Nanny Zhu. Madam has instructed to welco the miss inside, please follow .”
Shu Yu paused for a mont, then smiled and said, “Please lead the way, Nanny Zhu.”
“Miss, you’re too kind,” Nanny Zhu said while walking ahead, unobtrusively assessing Shu Yu with a few glances.
Seeing Ying Xi carrying a gift box, her smile deepened, and she quietly asked, “May I know the miss’s surna, and where are you visiting from?”
Last ti when this miss visited, Madam had specifically asked the Cousin Young Master about how they t.
However, that Cousin Young Master spoke nothing truthful, claiming that this miss ca with him, pretending to reject but with intent to take advantage of her connections.
Madam found it botherso to listen, and without gaining any useful information, she stopped inquiring further.
