479 Let Her Go, I Won’t See Her
The Xu family was an opportunity for Liu Sanniang. She was willing to help Madam Xu, but if Madam Xu didn’t believe her, she couldn’t do anything. Chu Yan had told her to only save people who wanted to be saved.
There was no need for her to feel sad or conflicted about this. However, since General Black had brought her here, she would not ignore this opportunity. As long as it was not over yet, there was always a chance for anyone to change their minds. As long as they were willing to believe her, she would always be there to help.
When the door opened, the servant looked at Liu Sanniang warily. “Miss, who are you looking for?”
Liu Sanniang said, “I’m looking for Madam Xu. Please inform her.”
The servant sized up Liu Sanniang carefully. “Miss, why are you looking for our madam? Do you have a letter of invitation?”
If there was a letter of invitation, she would be an important guest. If there was no letter of invitation, he did not dare to let her in rashly.
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “No, but I can save your young master. Please inform Madam Xu. Whether she sees me or not is up to her.”
When the servant heard her mention Young Master Xu, his expression changed. He looked at Liu Sanniang and vaguely felt that this young girl seemed to know everything about what was going on inside the Xu family.
The servant lowered his head. “Miss, please wait a moment.”
In order to prevent Liu Sanniang from coming in, the servant closed the door.
Standing outside the door, Liu Sanniang reached out and patted General Black’s head. “When we get back, we should be able to eat.”
General Black stuck out his tongue and rubbed his head against Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang smiled slightly. General Black had grown up quickly. Su Yanyu had been sending good things over to feed General Black, making his fur silky and nice to touch.
The servant went in to report. After Madam Xu heard this, she flew into a rage. “Tell her to leave. I won’t see her.”
She would never see Liu Sanniang. She was already being magnanimous for not making things difficult for Liu Sanniang. She did not want to see Liu Sanniang because she did not want to make herself angry.
The servant thought of Liu Sanniang’s confident tone and mustered his courage. “Madam, she seems to know about Young Master’s condition.”
Madam Xu slammed the table fiercely, her face turning ferocious from anger. “I said I won’t see her. Don’t you understand?”
The servant was shocked. He nodded his head and retreated.
The tightly shut door quickly opened. The servant looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “Miss, please go back. Our madam doesn’t want to see you. She’s in a fit of anger.”
For some reason, the servant felt a little guilty. He felt that Liu Sanniang was not a liar and that she really knew something.
He thought that after being rejected, Liu Sanniang would say something unpleasant.
However, she did not. Liu Sanniang replied calmly. “In that case, sorry to disturb you.”
She turned around and left with General Black.
The servant frowned and felt a little bad about Liu Sanniang leaving. Young Master Xu’s condition was so strange. Why didn’t Madam want to see her?
The servant shook his head and closed the door again.
Liu Sanniang led General Hei back slowly and saw a carriage outside the door. The coachman greeted Liu Sanniang respectfully. “Hello, Miss Liu.”
Liu Sanniang nodded with a smile. General Black seemed to have smelled the fragrance and happily ran into the house.
Su Yanyu cheered. “General Black, you’re back. Come, come, come. Look what I brought you today. Chickens. These chickens are young and tender. I stewed them slowly so it’s especially fragrant.”
Su Yanyu hurriedly opened the food box and watched as General Black ate with gusto. He smiled and reached out to quickly touch General Black’s fur.
General Black glanced at him, and Su Yanyu revealed a look of admiration. “Eat slowly. I’ll bring you something else next time.”
Such a big dog was really rare. He had never seen it before. It was awe-inspiring and formidable. He really wanted to have one for himself too.
Seeing Liu Sanniang walk over, Su Yanyu smiled and said, “Miss Liu.”
Liu Sanniang asked him. “Lord Su, have you eaten?”
Su Yanyu resisted the urge to burp and said, “Not yet.”
Since there was a chance to stay for a meal, he naturally had to pretend that he hadn’t eaten.
The chicken was really tender and fragrant. How could he resist the urge to eat it? However, when Liu Sanniang asked him if he had eaten yet, he immediately said no.
Liu Sanniang invited him. “Then, let’s eat together.”
Su Yanyu smiled. “Okay, okay. Thank you, Miss Liu.”
A good shifu-disciple relationship began with a meal.
After dinner, Su Yanyu remembered his purpose of coming. He said, “Miss Liu, there’s a banquet in the palace in two days. Are you interested in going over?”
Liu Sanniang remembered the several sources of evil and nodded. “What banquet is it?”
Seeing that she was interested, Su Yanyu immediately answered. “It’s Xia Qiluo’s birthday. The celebration is held every year.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “I’ll have you trouble with it, Young Marquis Su.”
Su Yanyu hurriedly waved his hand. “I’ve asked around. Before someone accepts a disciple, there are many tests the disciple has to go through. Although Miss Liu hasn’t agreed to take me in as a disciple, I already treat you as my shifu in my heart. It’s my duty to do things for you.”
Just as Liu Sanniang was about to speak, Su Yanyu stood up and walked out. “Then it’s settled. In two days, I’ll pick you up and bring you to the palace.”
Chu Yan’s eyes were as dark as ink. He said calmly, “He can’t cultivate the Dao.”
Liu Sanniang smiled at Chu Yan. “I know.”
Su Yanyu did not give her a chance to reject him. She wanted to make it clear, but Su Yanyu simply did not listen, which meant that it was not time yet.
