This time, they used the Zhou family's carriage. Since the journey was short, Ren Yaoqi, Ren Yaohua, Ren Yaoying, and Zhou Rong rode in the same carriage. Zhou Wen and Fang Shuzhou rode on horseback to protect the carriage, and several strong and sturdy maids were also arranged to accompany them. Before leaving, Mrs. Zhou came over to give a few instructions, and she felt relieved that her son's arrangements were sound.

The weather was perfect, not too hot, and windy. A group of people of the same age were traveling together, and even though their relationships weren't as harmonious as they appeared, they were all cheerful and happy. Even Ren Yaoqi thought the scenery near Sun Moon Spring was quite beautiful. The breeze blowing in through the hollow bamboo curtains dispelled some of the gloom.

Zhou Wen wanted to show off in front of his sisters, so he rode his horse with his back straight and competed with Fang Shuzhou in impromptu poetry. It was unclear whether he was truly talented or had prepared beforehand, but when he actually recited two poems, he outperformed Fang Shuzhou's.

They were talking loudly outside, so the girls in the carriage naturally heard them. Zhou Rong said proudly, "My brother is studying at Yunyang Academy. His teacher often praises him. He even passed the exam and became a scholar last year."

Ren Yaoying's eyes flickered, and she said in surprise, "Brother Zhou is truly amazing. He passed the examination for a scholar at such a young age. Wouldn't it be easy for him to pass the examination for a juren in the future?"

Zhou Rong smiled, but a hint of pride lingered in her eyes. "That's what his teacher said, too. But my father was worried that he'd become frivolous after achieving success at a young age, so he told him to wait a bit before taking the exam and calm down."

Ren Yaoqi was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zhou Wen was quite knowledgeable.

The carriage moved very slowly, but it arrived soon.

Ren Yaoqi also heard the sound of water while sitting in the carriage, and felt the moisture in the air.

The carriage stopped, and Zhou Wen said outside: "Sister, sister of the Ren family, we have arrived. Please sit in the carriage first. I will have someone clean up the place and you can get off the carriage."

Everyone agreed. Zhou Wen took a group of maids to a nearby place to work. Zhou Rong asked the maid to lift the curtain of the carriage. Everyone saw a waterfall not far ahead. It fell from a cliff more than ten feet high like a white silk. Water droplets splashed around the waterfall and water vapor filled the air. Below the waterfall was a deep pool whose depth could not be seen. The lush green scenery around it reflected a piece of flowing water.

Zhou Wen had the Zhou family's maids spread out a felt carpet not far from the waterfall, and set out a small table with brocade stools, tea, and snacks. He was very thoughtful. Compared to the honest and dull Fang Shuzhou, he was much more capable and considerate.

When the maids were ready, Zhou Wen personally came over to invite them out of the carriage. The girls in the carriage had already been attracted by the scenery here. It was the first time for the Ren sisters to come here and see the waterfall, and they were amazed.

Zhou Wen earnestly invited the Ren sisters to sit down while he described the waterfall's beauty to them. He hadn't had the chance to speak to them before, but now that he had the opportunity, he naturally didn't want to miss it. Zhou Wen was a truly eloquent and knowledgeable person, able to speak eloquently and cite classic texts. Even the proud Ren Yaohua listened with rapt attention, her opinion of this young man, whom she had previously considered frivolous, changing somewhat.

As Ren Yaoying watched Zhou Wen talking, her blush grew more pronounced, and a smile spread across her lips. Seeing this, Zhou Wen became even more attentive.

Sisters Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua didn't talk much, they were just busy enjoying the beautiful scenery of the waterfall.

"Fifth sister, let's go for a walk by the pond?" Zhou Wen was talking at length about a question asked by Ren Yaoying. Ren Yaohua had no interest in listening, so she spoke to Ren Yaoqi.

Although Zhou Wen was joking with Ren Yaoying, as a qualified host, he was always paying attention to the other guests. He paused after hearing this, looked at Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoqi, and then looked at Ren Yaoying: "How about we go for a walk by the pond together?"
