After Lian Shun left, the steward's wife came to collect the bowls and plates, served new tea, and brought a plate of green tea cakes she had made herself.
Su Liang ate the sweet and non-greasy treats, called the woman over, asked for the recipe, and gave her a reward.
Asi came to ask when Su Liang would return home. She planned to finish reading the book in the tea garden as planned, so she told Asi to go and have fun and come back before sunset.
"Great! There's a small river over there, I'll catch some fish for you to eat!" With her face bathed in sunlight, Asi's eyes sparkled brightly.
Su Liang nodded, "That sounds good, go ahead, but be careful."
After Asi left, Su Liang opened the book again and thought of Lian Shun who had come hurriedly and left quickly. She sighed softly. She had considered marriage before, but every time she had almost gotten married, she had thought about how not to get married, using Gu Ling disguised as Ning Jing as a cover more than once.
