822 Can’t be ranked first

Gu Nian ignored her. She did not have much contact with Li Shan and had only heard Gu Xin and Gu si talk about her. She knew her two younger sisters ‘personalities very well. Therefore, she did not have a good impression of Li Shan.

She couldn’t wait to leave.

After Li Shan left, li Muyan stole a glance at Gu Nian.

Fortunately, niannian wasn’t angry.

Shan ‘er knew when to advance and when to retreat. She knew that niannian didn’t like her, so she excused herself and went back to her room. She didn’t lose her manners and didn’t annoy people.

After a while, Zhu Mingsheng said that he had drunk too much and wanted to go to the toilet.

There was a toilet in li Muyan’s yard in a remote corner. Zhu Mingsheng didn’t bring anyone with him when he went there, and there was no one in the toilet.

He left li Muyan’s courtyard through the small door behind the outhouse and waited in the remote bamboo forest.

After a while, Li Shan’s maidservant came over.

“Zhu gongzi, this is for you.” The servant girl handed a small bottle to Zhu Mingsheng and left carefully.

Zhu Mingsheng returned to li Muyan’s courtyard.

The whole process took less than seven minutes, so no one suspected anything. Li Muyan’s courtyard was huge and he lived alone in more than half of the Li residence’s area. There were usually no servants around the courtyard, so no one knew that Zhu Mingsheng had been in contact with Li Shan’s maidservant.

In li Muyan’s courtyard, most of the servants were peddlers. He had asked Zhu Mingsheng and Su Yan to invite people over. There were about forty men and women, so this small lantern Festival was quite good.

In Gu Nian’s words, it was equivalent to an entire class going on a spring outing on an Old Street.

Other than the unpleasant incident between Luo Hailiang and Zhao mingying, the rest of the situation was rather pleasant.

Li Muyan was very nice to Gu Nian. He would remember everything that Gu Nian saw and give her the gift he got by guessing the lantern riddles.

Although she knew that li Muyan was smart, the lantern riddles in this small lantern show were still a little difficult. There were a few people that she didn’t know the answers to, but li Muyan did.

Gu Nian had heard from Su Yan that li Muyan had never been to a lantern show before. Last year, he had gone out with great difficulty and was chased and bitten by a dog. Therefore, she had sent someone to find these lantern riddles to ensure that li Muyan did not know the answers in advance.

After guessing all the riddles in the stall, there was nothing else to play. Zhu Mingsheng suggested to start a fire in the yard and everyone could barbecue meat together.

He said that the people in his Manor had sent over some fresh prey today. Su Yan also joined in the fun and Li Muyan asked Gu Nian if he wanted it.

Gu Nian felt that the young man was rather pitiful. Judging from how unfamiliar he was with the others, he had probably never played with anyone of the same age as him before!

She agreed, but she also said that she would go home after the barbecue.

Li Muyan was so happy that he looked like a fool.

The servants brought in firewood from the woodshed and started a fire. They also brought in the meat that had been processed and various spices.

As it was a self-service barbeque buffet, Gu Nian was much more familiar with the process than the others.

She roasted the lean meat of the leg for Gu Hui and Gu en first, then gave it to li Muyan.

“I don’t know when I’ll become the first in niannian’s heart,” li Muyan said sourly.

“In your dreams!” Gu Nian laughed. In my heart, I rank my parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters, then uncles and aunts, and then you!”

Zhu Mingsheng asked jokingly,”second young lady Gu, after you get married, which position will your children be in?”

‘She doesn’t even have a child, I can’t imagine it! But I’m sure that the children are definitely ranked before the men.”

Su Yan smiled. that’s fine. After niannian gets married, the child will come first, and the husband will come second. We’ll move niannian’s current ranking back a little.

“So, even if young master Li marries the Gu family’s second young lady, he won’t be able to rank first!” Another young master joked.

Everyone laughed, and Li Muyan laughed along with them.

Gu en silently observed li Muyan. Hmph, this liar is so perverted. He clenched his fist so angrily and yet he was smiling so innocently.
