"Then I'll wait in the side room!" Yao Mengxian said, and led Lianxin towards the side room.
The maid breathed a sigh of relief; Miss was the old lady's favorite, and she couldn't afford to offend her.
Gu Chengyu made a few jokes with the teacher's wife, and then Da Ya, Pearl, entered, bowed to Gu Chengyu, and whispered something in the old lady's ear. The old lady nodded without replying, Pearl stood up straight and left the room without speaking further.
Gu Chengyu felt there might be something going on, so he hurried to take his leave.
"Is there something you need to do? If not, stay and have a meal at the mansion."
Mrs. Ning was very fond of Gu Chengyu, not just because he was smart, good-looking, and very respectful to elders. Before the granddaughter came, he often visited the mansion to keep her company.
"Today, I still have to visit Lord Prefect's residence; in five days there will be a banquet. On that day, teacher's wife, please join us with the teacher!"
