Su Man followed Hongmei all the way from the water pavilion to the gatehouse in the outer courtyard.

A dark-faced man in the concierge was sitting on a bench, holding a small burden in his hand, and he didn't look like a family member in a house, but like a disaster victim who had fled from somewhere.

Because this man's appearance was too embarrassing, the porter didn't dare to let people into the house.

But this man kept saying that he was going to give a birthday gift to the eldest girl in the house, and the concierge naturally knew that these two days were the birthday of the eldest girl, and it was naturally not strange for someone to give a gift, but the person who gave the gift was really strange.

The porter gave the matter to the chief of the outer court, and the chief came to ask a few words, and then called someone to go back to the eldest girl.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the big girl to come over.

Su Man looked at the black-faced man who was full of embarrassment, and he was also confused, where did he flee from the famine, how did he send a gift to himself.

When the steward saw Su Man coming, he first saluted Su Man, and then said in a low voice: "Girl, the old slave has just asked, this person is from Guangzhou." ”

Guangzhou?

Su Man's brows tightened even tighter, he didn't have any acquaintances in Guangzhou.

Seeing that Su Man frowned and didn't speak, the steward knew that Su Man didn't think about it at all, so he had to remind him: "Big girl, the second master of the Wei family is fighting against the Japanese in Guangzhou at this time." ”

Su Man suddenly realized, and when he looked down at the man, he felt a little respectful.

This man must be a soldier, taking the birthday gift for himself as an order, and rushing all the way day and night, which is why he has made such a mess.

Thinking of this, Su Man smiled at the steward and said, "Thank you Steward Liu, I'll talk to the gift-giver in person?" ”

Naturally, Steward Liu would not stop him, and hurriedly turned around to call the man: "Big brother, our girl is here, you see what you have to say, just say it." ”

When the man heard that Su Man was coming, he immediately stood up from the small stool, opened his mouth a little stiffly, and stumbled: "Villain, villain has seen a big girl." ”

Su Man saw that his dark face was full of nervousness, and even the hand holding the little burden was trembling slightly.

Su Man smiled at him, waved his hand at him, and said, "This good man has worked hard all the way, just sit down and talk." After she finished speaking, she remembered something and asked, "Have you eaten before?" ”

The man was still standing dumbfounded, not knowing where to put his hands and feet, and when he heard Su Man ask him, he replied for a long time: "Villain, villain ate dry food on the way, thank you, thank you big girl." ”

Su Man smiled at him and didn't speak, but turned his head to Steward Liu and instructed: "Trouble Steward Liu to ask the people in the kitchen to make some simple and easy-to-restrain food and send it over, this good man has been bumpy all the way, and it is not good to eat something too greasy." ”

Steward Liu immediately responded and retreated, but the man was even more uncomfortable, and hurriedly waved his hand at Su Man: "The villain is just the general's order to give a gift to the girl, and after giving the gift, he will leave, the girl doesn't have to be busy." ”

Because he waved his hand too much, the small burden swayed between his arms, and it looked like it was about to fall.

The man also noticed it, and quickly put away his hand and hugged the burden tightly in his arms, and after thinking about it for a while, he seemed to feel that it was wrong, so he took out the burden again and sent it to Su Man.

"Our general knew that the girl's birthday was approaching, so he specially instructed his subordinates to give the girl a birthday gift, and asked the girl to accept it."

Su Man glanced sideways at Hongmei beside her, and Hongmei immediately stepped forward to take the burden.

"This hero has worked hard all the way, so I'll ask Steward Liu to pack up a side room and come out, and ask the hero to have a good rest before going back."

The man still waved his hand, watched Hongmei put away the burden well, and was about to leave.

Su Man was startled, and hurriedly wanted to step forward to stop him, but after all, the man was born in the army, and where could she, a weak woman, stop her.

Before she could move her steps, the man strode out of the porter's room, turned around and went out of the door again, and disappeared.

Su Man sighed helplessly, and turned around and walked out of the porter.

The master and servant continued to walk towards the water pavilion, Hongmei looked at the dirty little burden in her hand, and asked with some embarrassment: "Girl, this, what should I do?" ”

Su Man also glanced sideways at the burden, and felt a little embarrassed for a while, and only after a while did she sigh lightly and said: "No matter what, the things have been sent over, and I don't know where to retreat if I want to retreat, you send it to Yiranzhai first, and take it first." ”

Hongmei answered, and trotted all the way to Yiranzhai.

Su Man didn't know what was in the baggage, but thinking that people thousands of miles away were still thinking about him, and he sent someone from thousands of miles to send something over, and the second child of the Wei family was also an infatuated species.

However, Su Man smiled a little self-deprecatingly, and this infatuation was not aimed at himself.

However, no matter what, since the original owner has an explanation, he will live this life well, no matter what he does.

Su Man raised his hand and patted his face, then squeezed out another smile and strode towards the water pavilion.

……

"You said someone gave the girl a birthday gift?" Lu Yan sat behind the bookcase, his eyes did not leave the book, but his brows were tightly wrinkled.

Qingcheng lowered his head and replied softly: "Yes, the concierge said very clearly, saying that the person Xu came from Guangzhou." ”

"It's obsessive." Lu Yan snorted lightly, and threw the scroll on the table with a snap, "People have gone so far, and they are still thinking about it in their hearts." ”

Qingcheng hung his head, not daring to answer.

Lu Yan looked up at the sky outside, it was already May, and the days were getting longer and longer, so although it was already the beginning of the day, the sky was still bright.

He stood up, straightened the hem of his clothes, and said with a slight smile: "Today's girl has a banquet, it is inconvenient for me to give a gift during the day, so it should be reasonable to give a gift at this time." ”

Qingcheng still hung his head and didn't dare to squeak, and Lu Yan didn't want to get an answer at all.

He took a small box that looked very delicate from the Hundred Treasure Pavilion behind him, and then walked around the bookcase and strode out of the study.

Su Man was already so tired that she was lying on the couch at this time, and Hongmei and the others were sitting around her, gently rubbing her waist and legs.

She lowered her eyes and wanted to sleep for a while, but somehow she remembered the little gray burden, and she didn't even open her eyes, and commanded softly: "Hongmei, go and get that baggage." ”

Hongmei looked at Lu Yan, who had already opened the curtain and came in, and didn't know whether it should be okay for a while, and was about to remind Su Man, but heard Lu Yan laugh softly: "It's been a busy day, but I'm tired." ”
