Third Master Song first ran to find the steward of the mansion, instructing him to delay the servants from the He Mansion. He told the steward to tell them that the gifts were too numerous and too varied and needed to be sorted, so they should wait in the courtyard for the time being. Then, taking advantage of the time, he hurried to find Third Aunt Song. ...
If not for his current inability to walk, Third Master Song would have already rushed over, grabbed Third Aunt Song by her clothes, and fiercely interrogated her. ...
“Zhaozhao! You’ve come!” ...
Gu Fengjian awoke, and Third Aunt Song came again. ...
A steaming bowl of noodles was brought to the table, their fragrant aroma rising with the swirling steam. ...
Madam Gu and Song Chuzhao entered, and immediately, Minister Fan ceased his scolding. ...
Chundong rushed in so quickly that she nearly collided with Miao’er, who was standing at the entrance of the courtyard. She quickly stepped aside, calling out, “Miss! Miss, something’s wrong!” ...
Ever since the riding and archery incident, Fan Chongqing had been wanting to find Gu Fengjian to talk. He wasn’t the kind of person who would hold a grudge over a single win or loss, he was simply curious about Fifth Son Gu’s difference from the rumors and wanted to spar with him again. ...
Song Chuzhao had no friends in the capital. After returning, the only people she encountered were strange and peculiar. The only person she could have a proper conversation with was Gu Fengjian. ...
