Chapter 878: Strange Steward Zhou


    Editor: Henyee Translations


    Zhou Dafu’s seat was in the corner. Gu Yundong chose a seat where she could see them, but it was not easy for them to see her.


    Fortunately, there were many people coming and going in the teahouse at this time, so no one paid much attention to them. Naturally, Zhou Dafu and his servant were the same.


    Gu Yundong ordered a pot of tea, a stack of peanuts, a plate of cucumbers, and slowly ate with Tong Shuitao.


    There were even storytellers in the teahouse. With a clap of the wooden stick, their voices were raised and immediately received cheers from the entire hall.


    Gu Yundong had never heard of it before and was a little curious.


    On the other hand, Tong Shuitao was not very interested in this storytelling. This person spoke genteelly and liked to keep people in suspense. In the end, there were only a few familiar stories. They were not as good as the little stories that Miss had told Young Master and the others.


    Hence, Tong Shuitao had been paying attention to Zhou Dafu and his servant the entire time.


    After Gu Yundong listened for a while, Tong Shuitao suddenly said in surprise, “Miss, why is Old Master Zhou drinking? This is a teahouse. He treats it as a tavern. If he wants to drink, why doesn’t he go to a tavern?”


    “Drink?” Gu Yundong finally shifted his gaze to Zhou Dafu.


    As he spoke, he grabbed his arm and placed it on her shoulder. He slowly stood up... and failed.


    After trying twice, Steward Zhou knelt back down.


    He laughed dryly at the waiter, who hurriedly said, “I’ll help your master back with you.”


    Steward Zhou refused without hesitation. “No need, no need. You see, there are many guests now and you’re very busy. There are still guests calling you over. How about this? I’ll go back and get someone to come over immediately. The Zhou Mansion isn’t far away. I’ll be back soon.”


    Before the waiter could say anything, he had already gone downstairs.


    Tong Shuitao was dumbfounded. She said softly, “Miss, what exactly is Steward Zhou doing? Why do I feel that something is wrong? He just left Old Master Zhou there and ran off. Doesn’t he care? Isn’t he afraid that something will happen?”


    Gu Yundong also found it very strange. She got up and walked to the window, looking down.


    Steward Zhou had just run out of the teahouse and even turned to look upstairs.


    Gu Yundong hurriedly retracted her head and waited for Steward Zhou to run away before looking over again.


    But strangely, Steward Zhou was indeed running in the direction of the Zhou Mansion.
