Chapter 255 - 254: The Private Construction Industry
Lian Gui looked at the sky and sighed helplessly, "Ah, there’s nothing else to be done, we’ve really been delayed here for too long. We thought we would send Nanny Qiao and the others to attend to Lady Qi, and after troubling her for a day or two, we could go back. Who knew we would encounter so many problems? Having been delayed for so long, the Duchess must already be worried about Lady Qi."
Qi Younian followed Lian Gui’s words with a laugh, "Indeed, Steward Lian has been mentioning the need to return for some time, and only after much difficulty did he finally make up his mind to pick a date."
Amidst everyone’s urging, Lian Gui bid farewell to them all once more.
Ye Xinyan also stepped forward to say goodbye. Before Lian Gui mounted his horse, Ye Xinyan took two steps forward and once again reminded him, "Steward Lian must remember to deliver the young woman’s letters and articles to the wife of the heir apparent. They represent the young woman’s sincere regards to the wife of the heir apparent and are very important. Steward Lian, please remember not to lose them."
Even though Lian Gui had heard these words several times, he couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Even if you, Miss, always act as you please, isn’t it a bit too obvious? The Duke’s Mansion is still under the Duke and Duchess, after all. You should at least mention the two elders, which would show some thoughtfulness on your part, right?
Nanny Jin hurriedly came to his aid, "Steward Lian, I appreciate your efforts. You must convey Lady Qi’s regards to the Duke and Duchess. On behalf of Lady Qi, I thank you, Steward Lian." While speaking, she continuously bowed to Lian Gui.
Nanny Jin had advised the young miss more than once to also send her regards to the Duke and Duchess, but it was like talking to a wall. After all, among the masters of the entire manor, aside from the wife of the heir apparent, it seemed that everyone else couldn’t wait for the young miss to disappear. It was inevitable for the young miss to harbor some grievances.
She had no choice but to prepare some earthy gifts on her own and sneak them to Lian Gui, claiming they were prepared by Lady Qi.
