"Xiaoyu, bring over the box behind you."

Cheng Wan was talking about the food box-like box that Gu Yan brought.

"This box is so heavy. It was my third brother who carried it from my second uncle's house."

Cheng Xiaoyu said and lifted it with both hands, which was indeed very difficult.

Deng Xiong scratched his head and walked over to bring the box over. "It's really heavy, like a box of rocks. Because it was fastened with a buckle, I didn't open it at the time."

Cheng Wan looked curious. She bent down to look at the box, quickly opened the buckle and opened the lid.

"steamed stuffed bun!

My mother!

My mother! "

Mrs. Lin sat on her knees and stared at the golden buns in the box.

Cheng Wan also looked straight at it.

Let me ask, who can remain indifferent when a box of golden buns suddenly appears in front of him?

Cheng Wan reached for a gold bun and weighed it in her hand, "It's real."

"One, two, three...eighteen!"

Cheng Daniu looked puzzled, "Is there anything special about this number?"

Cheng Wan looked at the eighteen golden buns on the coffee table, "These should be made according to the number of people in our family.

Counting the child in the second aunt's belly, there are exactly seventeen people in our family. There are seventeen steamed buns with the word "福" on them. The last one is probably to make up for an even number, as it has no words on it. "

If Gu Yan knew Cheng Wan's thoughts, he would be very happy and feel that he and Cheng Wan really have a good understanding.

"This……"

Mrs. Wang sighed softly, "Master Gu is really thoughtful."

Cheng Wan lowered his eyes, secret desire welling up in his eyes, and thought to himself: "It is true that he has a heart, and he also has money. It is normal for him to be tempted by such a man."

In Gu Yan's box, there are not only the buns prepared by Gu Yan, but also red seals from Shao Qing and Mu Yao.

Shaoqing left an additional fifty taels of silver with Cheng Wan's family, while Mu Yao generously took a thousand taels with him.

Mrs. Lin and the others became frightened again.

"Shaoqing gave the gift alone. We know this. Shaoqing told us, but he and Mr. Gu didn't tell us that Shizi Mu also gave the gift to our family?

We haven’t seen each other since we separated from Prince Mu in Yishu Courtyard.

This... I couldn't believe it when I suddenly received the gift from Prince Mu. "

Cheng Wan stacked four banknotes totaling one thousand two hundred and fifty taels and handed them to Mrs. Lin, "Maybe he was worried that we wouldn't dare to accept them, so he didn't say anything.

Since he gave it, let's keep it. After all, it's not like we stole it by force. From now on, we will treat Prince Mu just like we treat Sheriff Mao. If anything happens, just remember to invite them.

As for whether they come or not, that is their business. "

The impact of Gu Yan's box was so great that it took a while for Mrs. Lin and the others to calm down.

With eighteen gold buns and one thousand taels of silver notes as a base, Mrs. Lin and the others looked at the contents of the gift boxes given by Jiang Shidu and accepted them well.

Without waiting for Mrs. Lin and the others to ask, Cheng Wan took the initiative to give her attitude, "Take that box of cakes, I helped Young Master Jiang once and for all.

As for the rest, I will go to the city and return it to him tomorrow. "

The next day, Cheng Wan did not go to Xu Zhinian immediately after entering the city. Instead, he carried a cloth bag and went to the Gu Mansion first.

The journey went smoothly to the outside of the courtyard where Gu Yan lived. A servant saw Cheng Wan and quickly led Cheng Wan inside.

"You don't need to tell your master?"

"When Miss Cheng comes back, my master has told me that when Miss Cheng comes, I will just take you to find him. There is no need to report."

In the open space in front of the study room, Gu Yan was a little surprised that he had just met Cheng Wan yesterday, and now they met again today. The next moment, Gu Yan seemed to have thought of something, and his ears turned red uncontrollably.

Cheng Wan looked at Gu Yan's rather formal clothes and raised her eyebrows slightly, "Master Gu, are you going out?"

Gu Yan nodded and said in a low voice, "Go to Prince Rui's Mansion."

Cheng Wan handed over the cloth bag in his hand and said, "My mother roasted the mountain food. Let me bring it to you and Shaoqing to try."

Gu Yan took the cloth bag with a smile and handed it to Shaoqing beside him, "Thank you Auntie for your kindness. I will definitely taste it when I return home."

"Walk together?"

Gu Yan was slightly stunned, "Okay."

Cheng Wan and Gu Yan walked side by side outside the mansion, with a distance that allowed two people to stand in between.

"Mr. Gu, thank you for the gift you sent to our family. We like it very much."

Gu Yan didn't want to talk to Cheng Wan so unfamiliarly, but he understood that this was outside and had to be like this.

"Yes, no need to say thank you."

"A gift from Prince Mu?"

"Just accept what he gave to your family. He took the initiative to ask me to bring you a random gift. It was not what I asked for."

"Then do we need to treat Prince Mu to a meal alone?"

"No, even if you invite me, he probably won't have time.

And this matter is indeed a trivial matter to him, so you don't need to take it too seriously. "

Cheng Wan nodded, then turned to look at Gu Yan, and asked curiously: "Is the salary for working for Prince Rui so high? How long has it been since you had the money to make those buns?"

Cheng Wan remembered that Gu Yan and Shaoqing gave all the large banknotes they had to themselves.

"My grandmother married from Liangzhou and came to the capital. She had shops in many cities in Liangzhou. Now that my grandmother is no longer alive, and I come to Liangzhou, those shops will naturally be dominated by me."

Cheng Wan pursed her lower lip, "I'm sorry for making you sad."

Gu Yan shook his head slightly, his eyes full of murderous intent, "Miss Cheng, I will definitely let those people go down to apologize to my grandmother and the others. Do you believe me?"

Cheng Wan's steps stopped, and she turned to look at Gu Yan seriously, "I believe, Gu Yan, you will definitely avenge your relatives."

Gu Yan stared blankly at Cheng Wan's sincere eyebrows, the murderous intent and fierceness in his eyes gradually disappeared.

"Awan, if I die in the process of revenge, will you, will you always remember me?"

Cheng Wan turned around and continued walking out, her voice was light and no emotion could be heard.

"No, I will forget you and live my life well."

Gu Yan looked at Cheng Wan's decisive back, clenching his fists with stubbornness in his eyes.

The next moment, Gu Yan suddenly chuckled, "This is the best..."

After separating from Gu Yan, Cheng Wan drove the carriage to pick up Xu Zhinian, and then the two of them went to Jiang Mansion together.

Jiang Mansion is easy to find. After all, he is the richest man in Liangzhou, so the scale of his mansion is naturally extraordinary. Almost all the residents in Shuoyang City know the location of Jiang Mansion.

"This belongs to your young master. Please pass it on to him. Just say that what should be kept has been left."

In front of the gate of Jiang Mansion, Cheng Wan handed the gift box she was carrying to the doorkeeper of Jiang Mansion and turned to leave.

Cheng Wan didn't know that as soon as she left, the hostess of Jiang Mansion knew what happened at the gate of Jiang Mansion.

"Oh? You said that girl sent the gift box that the young master sent back?"

In the ornately decorated thermal pavilion, a graceful woman spoke casually.

This woman is dressed in a scarlet brocade dress, with complex floral patterns woven with gold thread on the collar and cuffs.

Looking at the headdress and jewelry worn by the woman, each piece is gorgeous and exquisite. Just one piece can be enough for ordinary people outside to eat and drink for half a lifetime.

"Back to Madam, the girl said that she has left the things that should be kept. Of the things that the young master sent, the family seems to have only kept a box of cakes."
