Interstellar boss dressed as a peasant girl and became rich

Chapter 258 Bonfire Dinner at the Resort
Seeing that he was so excited, he called a few people to carry in a dozen boxes and placed them in the study to fiddle with them.

Gu Yu no longer bothered him, but asked Qiu Cai to take the account books of the past few months and start handling official business.

…………

As time passed, the sky was gradually shrouded in night and became darker and darker.

Qiu Cai knocked on the door gently and said softly, "Master, Lord Mu and General Cheng have arrived."

Gu Yu, who was in the room, heard this and slowly raised his head. He stretched out his hand to rub his neck, which was slightly stiff from maintaining the same posture for a long time, and responded, "Got it, I'll be down right away."

Gu Yu's voice was calm and gentle, revealing a calm and unhurried temperament.

He turned and walked towards the study, calling Han Yili who was still busy inside, "Ali, Lord Mu and General Cheng are here, let's go downstairs first!"

Han Yili had just heard Qiu Cai knocking on the door and the conversation between Gu Yu and him.

He put down the pen in his hand, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he was quite satisfied with the work he had just completed. Then he stood up and replied, "Wait a moment, I will go wash up first, and then go downstairs with you."

Gu Yu saw Han Yili coming out of the study with some ink on her sleeves, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What did you do in the study? Why are your clothes dirty?"

When Han Yili first arrived at this beautiful new home that looked like a fairyland, her heart was filled with endless excitement.

He could not wait to walk into the well-decorated study, took out the four treasures of the study, and wanted to use his brush to depict all the beautiful scenery he saw today. He said, "I am in a difficult mood to encounter such a beautiful scenery today. While painting in the study, my sleeves were accidentally stained with some ink." He then instructed, "Wait for me here first."

Gu Yu: "..."

Painting?

Seeing the excitement still flashing in Han Yili's eyes and her hurriedly leaving back, one can't help but wonder if Han Yili had painted what she saw and heard today!
With this thought in mind, Gu Yu came to the study and saw that Han Yili had completed a vivid and lifelike painting.

Looking closely at the scroll, one can see that it not only delicately outlines this cozy courtyard, but also vividly depicts the scene of Gu Wu and Yang sitting leisurely in the courtyard, watching the three little ones playing happily.

What is even more surprising is that in the painting, she and Han Yili are looking at each other lovingly. That affectionate gaze seems to penetrate the canvas and bring the viewer into that beautiful moment.

When seeing this painting, Gu Yu suddenly had a strange feeling, as if he had accidentally eaten a bite of the dog food he had spread.

The feeling was both sweet and a little awkward, and she couldn't help but smile.

After admiring the painting, he left the study quietly.

Han Yili finished washing up, changed into a crescent-shaped white robe, and walked down the stairs with Gu Yu.

At this time, Mu Qianxue and General Cheng, who were drinking tea and appreciating flowers in the yard, saw them, stood up and said, "It's late, you have nowhere else to go, so we can only ask you two to take you in tonight." Hearing this, Gu Yu's eyelids jumped.

She did not forget that the government had built an inn at the dock to provide a place for officials to rest.

Mu Qianxue and General Cheng said that they had nowhere to go. This is really hard to believe!
However, these two were VIPs she specially invited!
Although she knew that what they had just said was just some polite words, she still said quickly: "You two adults are really too kind to me! I originally specially invited you two to have dinner together tonight, how dare I use the word 'take me in'?"

Mu Qianxue had heard before that Gu Yu had built a resort, but since he was always busy with official duties, he had no time to come there for a visit and stay.

Just now, he suddenly stepped into the courtyard where Gu Yu lived, and immediately had a wonderful feeling as if he was in another world.

What's more, General Cheng was completely focused on how to eliminate more enemies, so it was impossible for him to have heard of what Gu Yu's resort looked like.

Just like Mu Qianxue, when General Cheng came to this courtyard that was both familiar and unfamiliar, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: the place where he lived before was too messy. Compared with this place, it was a world of difference. Everything here made people feel particularly comfortable and pleasant.

General Cheng stroked his beard and said, "Xiaoyu! I am about the same age as your father. I would like to take advantage of my seniority and call you Xiaoyu. Is that okay?"

Gu Yu was full of admiration and respect for General Cheng, who guarded the border and made outstanding contributions. After hearing his question, he responded without hesitation and very sincerely: "I am just a junior, General Cheng, you can call me whatever you want."

General Cheng said this because he didn't want to hear Gu Yu calling himself a commoner anymore.

When he heard Gu Yu call himself that again, his round eyes suddenly widened and he said, "Since you have agreed that I can call you Xiaoyu, from now on, Xiaoyu, you can just call me uncle and stop calling yourself a 'commoner'!"

"And me." Mu Qianxue took the opportunity to step forward, trying to make her presence felt. "We have known each other for a long time, so there is no need to be too rigid about these etiquettes. In private, we can just call each other by our names."

Gu Yu also wanted to stop repeating “common people, common people” every day.

However, living in this ancient society with strict hierarchy, she had to be cautious about her identity and status so as not to give others any handle to attack her family.

Seeing the sincerity in the two people's eyes, Gu Yu showed a smile from the heart and responded: "In this case, Gu Yu will respectfully obey your orders."

"Hahaha, you should have done this a long time ago!" General Cheng was very fond of this younger generation who specially brought a large amount of supplies for them. He laughed heartily at this time and gently patted Gu Yu's shoulder, indicating that he was in a very good mood.

While waiting for Qiucai to come and report, Nan Quan and his group had already arrived at the square.

General Cheng introduced the ten soldiers who came with him to Gu Yu and Han Yili. Gu Yu, Mu Qianxue, General Cheng and Han Yili walked towards the square, chatting and laughing all the way.

From a distance, you can see a bonfire burning in the center of the square, illuminating the surroundings.

As you approach the fire, you will see ten whole roasted lambs, five fat roasted suckling pigs, more than twenty fragrant roasted pheasants, and five huge roasted deer. They are making tempting sizzling sounds on the fire, and the rich aroma fills the air, making people salivate.

General Cheng always liked to eat big chunks of meat and drink big bowls of wine. When he smelled the mixture of meat and fireworks, he couldn't help but swallow hard, and his stomach growled twice. He smiled and said, "Haha, it seems that we are all in for a treat tonight!"
