The Hunter’s Lively Wife
Chapter 811 - Chapter 811 Chapter 811 Where Did All These Rules Come From

Chapter 811: Chapter 811: Where Did All These Rules Come From? Chapter 811: Chapter 811: Where Did All These Rules Come From? Su Yunjin chuckled softly.

She was also curious as to why the old queen dowager of the Prince Qi Residence would live in such a small town.

Royals and nobles should live in places like Jincheng, right? How could the prince’s wife from the Qi Residence come to live in such a remote little town? That’s hardly scientific!

“Husband, why do you think the old queen dowager from the Qi Residence would come to this small town?” Su Yunjin asked with a curious face, while guessing wildly in her heart.

One question after another from his young wife amused Gu Ya, “Yunjin, why all these questions? Listen, go to sleep. Only the old queen dowager herself knows why she came here. How would outsiders like us know?”

Indeed!

Su Yunjin felt that Gu Ya was right.

So she didn’t ask any more questions.

Then the couple went to sleep, each to their own bed.

The fifty jars of fruit wine required by the Prince Qi Residence had already been prepared in advance by Su Yunjin.

In the morning, Gu Ya went outside and called for an ox cart. Fifty jars of fruit wine were too much for one cart, so Gu Ya called for two. The residency of the Prince Qi Residence was quite secluded, according to the address left on the order.

Su Yunjin and Gu Ya stopped in front of a tall and grand residence, with a bright red plaque above its gate, where the two characters for “Qi Residence” were particularly striking.

Su Yunjin stood in front of the house, taking in the red gate and the two large stone lions outside the door.

Standing there, Su Yunjin felt that the residence was very grandly built; it was indeed a princely house, much more impressive than the ordinary homes she had never seen the likes of before.

On the gate of the prince’s house hung two large red lanterns, each with the character for “longevity” written large upon them. Additionally, there were two rows of house servants standing outside the residence.

It seemed like they were there to welcome guests.

It must be the old queen dowager’s birthday today.

Su Yunjin conjectured silently as she observed the two lanterns in front of the Wang Residence.

The hour was still early.

Su Yunjin and Gu Ya hadn’t seen very many people go in yet.

“Yunjin, wait here for me; I’ll go over and ask,” Gu Ya said to his wife, who was sizing up the residence, before he walked up to make inquiries.

Upon learning that Su Yunjin and others were there to deliver fruit wine,

the butler came out and instructed them, “The two of you, today is the birthday of our old queen dowager of the Qi Residence. The guests are all royals and nobles. While delivering the fruit wine, do not wander about carelessly. Offending any of the royal relatives would be a crime you could not afford to bear,” the butler warned them in a haughty tone.

This tone was typically used for lecturing servants.

Su Yunjin stood aside, listening to the butler’s endless droning until her ears could take no more. She and Gu Ya had come to deliver the fruit wine,

And would leave right after doing so.

Why bother with so many rules?

Royal folks surely do have a lot of them.

Fortunately, she hadn’t somehow crossed over into the royal family; otherwise, all these rules would be waiting for her, and just the thought made Su Yunjin feel woozy. The young wife was clearly impatient.

Gu Ya subtly shot his wife a look, signaling her to be patient. After the butler finished speaking, he glanced at the cart of fruit wine they had brought, and in the same arrogant tone said, “Today, our Wang Residence is hosting the old queen dowager’s birthday, and we do not have spare hands to move the fruit wine. So could you, young master Gu, kindly help us transport these jars to the kitchen at the back of the residence? I will arrange for someone to show you the way.”

What?

The fruit wine has to be moved by themselves?

Su Yunjin was surprised, expecting the Wang Residence would assign someone to move it, but Gu Ya kept his composure.

“Butler, rest assured, we will deliver the fruit wine to the back kitchen of the residence according to your instructions,” he said.
