I got "Excuse Us!" from the English translation of the uncropped version of
that image.




It's ごめんくださーい, not ごぬんくださーい. The actual phrase is just ごめんください, but here it's
written with an elongation to reflect how people often pronounce it. In any
case, 'excuse us' isn't quite an accurate translation; it's what you say when
you enter someone's home without permission. Other options include 失礼（いた）します
and お邪魔（いた）します. There's also an old-fashioned use before you leave, similar
again to （お先に）失礼（いた）します.
