"Then treat it as your reward."

Gu Mingyan looked at the signboard at the side, obediently took out his copper and placed it on the table.

He did not have the habit of eating an overbearing meal. He stood up and said to the two guards, "Do you know how much silver you will eat and how much will be rewarded?"

How was this any different from giving money directly!

It was a pity that these two guards could be so arrogant and despotic in front of the commoners. They could only nod and bow to the young miss who had come from the mountains. In their hearts, they could not help but despise the young miss for her actions.

Just like this, people felt that people with Prime Minister's Mansion were easily bullied.

The Lady Boss shakily received the silver and went to the shop facing the street to buy her first rabbit candy from this morning. She handed it over to the young lady and uneasily wiped her hands. "Great Elder Wang's cooking skills are excellent."

"Really. Thank you, Lady Boss."

Gu Mingyan saw that she had squeezed the cake perfectly, and could not bear to eat it, so he just took out a copper coin and gave it to her: "Lady Boss's pancake is also delicious, next time I come here to try something else, is it alright?"

"Alright, alright, alright. Next time, I'll definitely prepare the best for Eldest Miss."

The Lady Boss took the copper coin, so she was not afraid of this new Eldest Miss.

Compared to the machinery crops he had eaten in the stalls in his previous life, they were completely different. He was happy that he still wanted to go to other places, but he was stopped by two guards at the same time.

"I've already eaten." Gu Mingyan stood in place, completely at a loss.

Afraid that she wouldn't have enough to eat today, she had ordered a lot. Now that she had a bloated stomach, how could she bear another breakfast?

"Even if Eldest Miss doesn't eat it, she still has to go."

"Fine."

Gu Mingyan bitterly left, but his heart was beating uncontrollably, Shuang Hua had never taught her etiquette before.

I'm afraid that's the rule in Prime Minister's Mansion.

Madam Liu and Little Madam Liu seemed to be talking about something, while Gu Ziyan and Gu Zixi, who were holding onto Miss's airs, sat by the side without moving their chopsticks. Gu Qingzhou, who they had not paid attention to earlier, was tall and big, but his gaze was very simple.

Upon entering the door, they only felt countless gazes landing on her.

After she gave a simple salute, she found her seat and sat down. Knowing that the Patriarch's future was near, and that no one could even touch the chopsticks in the morning meal, she lifted her hand and poured herself a cup of cold water to play with, only to hear Gu Zixi say coldly, "When cold water enters the stomach, it will only result in diarrhea.

Drinking cold water to fill one's teeth was exactly what she felt today.

He then drank the cup of cold water and smiled, "I didn't know that Third Sister would know so much."

"Are you mocking me?" Seeing that, Gu Zixi was just about to slap the table and rise, but was stopped by the gaze of the little Madam Liu, who sat angrily at the side not looking at Gu Mingyan.

Gu Ziyan could only helplessly say, "Big Sister doesn't need to mock Zixi. She's just a little girl."

"It's not a mockery. Whatever you two sisters think."

Speaking of which, Gu Mingyan poured another cup of cold water on himself, placed it in his hands to play around but he did not seem like he wanted to drink it.

However, the opening of his fingertip was still incomplete. There was a shallow scar on his finger that was somewhat eye-catching.

But after a while, Gu Zhiyuan stepped into the house dressed in his official's uniform. No one needed to bow, but they should know that Gu Zhiyuan was about to go to the imperial court. Gu Zhiyuan, who usually ate early, only glanced at Gu Mingyan who was holding a cup of cold water and said coldly: "Why not have breakfast?"

"My daughter has already gone out to eat." Gu Mingyan smiled lightly as he put down the cup.

However, Gu Zhiyuan frowned and asked the butler at home. The butler hurried over after asking the guards, and told them everything that Gu Mingyan had eaten in the morning.

Before Gu Mingyan could say anything, he heard a loud bang sound, and she almost jumped up from her chair in shock. She turned her head back and faced Gu Zhiyuan with a face full of anger: "How can Miss Prime Minister's Mansion eat food from vendors!"

Gu Zixi laughed in schadenfreude. "Do you not know your place as well, eldest sister?"

Shuang Hua never told me before that I can't eat things on the streets.

Why would a mere Prime Minister's Mansion have more rules than the rules of a prince's mansion!

Gu Mingyan was angry in his heart, but on the surface he heard Gu Zhiyuan continuing: "In the future, you're not allowed to eat street stalls."

"Fine." Gu Mingyan agreed falsely, but whether he agreed or not was another story.

Gu Zhiyuan calmed down a little. When he finished his breakfast, he suddenly thought of something and asked Gu Mingyan in front of everyone: "When did you get up?"

Gu Mingyan calculated in his heart, and looked at him while pinching his fingers: "Hours."

Thinking about it, her biological clock used to wake up at around five-thirty, but she didn't know if the time here was right or not.

The few of them looked at her with strange expressions, but Gu Zixi suddenly sneered: "You're up so early, I'm afraid that you're not going to farm."

"Since I slept early, I naturally woke early as well. What's wrong with that?" Gu Mingyan did not understand.

"In the future, you can sleep more. Don't let others see you as a joke." Gu Zhiyuan sighed heavily, and rushed to the morning assembly.

The people at the table burst into laughter.

Gu Mingyan's face immediately darkened.

It was wrong to go out and eat breakfast, and it was also wrong to pay for breakfast. It was just getting up early, so what was the problem?

Just as he was about to leave, he heard Madam Liu open his mouth, "Ming Yan."

Gu Mingyan turned around, the coldness in his eyes did not escape the eyes of the Madam Liu.

[There are two ways to deal with this girl!]

The Madam Liu walked around the table leisurely. Seeing that Gu Mingyan was still dressed neatly, she was overjoyed that she was no longer a little girl, but hated that little face of hers and could only laugh lowly: "Master wants you to go to the Academy to study after the New Year. The aunt thinks that there's still half a month before the New Year, so she went to the Academy to request a placing.

"Alright." The heck!

Gu Mingyan only wished that he could smash this smiling person into the ground.

Right now, she was still unable to treat Xiao Qiran's old injuries. Since she had already done Li Xiang's job, the secret map could be considered as Li Xiang personally handing it over, so she had to find a time to get the ice jade coffin and prepare a secret pavilion for Xiao Qiran. Only then would she know about the situation of his Shengan, or else she would be unable to form a plan for her escape.

All in all, why did he have to go to the academy to study?

Madam Liu however rubbed her slender shoulders and said softly: "Zi Yan, today's Melting Snow, the academy will think that everyone will draw a winter snow scene, it will be the perfect time to bring your sister there, and it will also be the perfect time to tailor your clothes for the academy."

Gu Mingyan's brows twitched. Letting her watch someone painting might just be asking for half of her life.

However, Gu Ziyan had already gotten up from where he was, and laughed: "Wait a while, I will come to call big sister."

"Alright."

Gu Mingyan tried his best not to smile.
