Chapter 326 Yingchun is going to visit Liu Qianrou

Xue Baochai naturally knew that Liu Qianrou had not returned last night, and that the Liu family had all left early this morning.

“Miss Liu isn’t inside; she’s probably gone to find Princess Lin,” Xue Baochai said after a moment’s thought.

She couldn't afford to offend anyone here, and Liu Qianrou was no easy person to get along with. If she were to report Liu Qianrou today, Liu Qianrou would dare to lash her with her riding whip.

She didn't need to offend Liu Qianrou.

Ma Xinlan frowned, but then realized that their group's teacher, Ms. Xu, was also absent.

This leaves them wondering how they can proceed with their next move!

She was about to go find Dean Mi when she saw Dean Yuan and Princess Lin riding over.

"Are you all ready, students?" Yuan Hongqu glanced at the students and then turned to ask Ma Xinlan.

Ma Xinlan was a little excited. She rarely had the opportunity to speak directly with the legendary Dean. She nodded and quickly answered.

"Dean, we are all ready and can depart at any time."

"Xinlan did a great job!"

Yuan Hongqu praised her, and Ma Xinlan blushed at the compliment.

Although she didn't have a deep impression of Ma Xinlan, she was quite capable of calming these young ladies down and getting them to wait quietly for the teacher to come and lead them.

"I'm very confident in entrusting the first group to you. The same applies to the future."

"Dean, I will!" Ma Xinlan shouted loudly, as if afraid that Yuan Hongqu wouldn't hear her.

Daiyu, standing to the side, watched Ma Xinlan's adoring expression towards Granny Yuan, her eyes practically sparkling like stars.

She suddenly felt a sense of crisis: someone else was going to try and take her nanny away!

Before Daiyu's sense of crisis could subside, she heard Yuan Hongqu say loudly:

"Today I'm working with your group. Let's all mount up and set off together."

"Dean, where are Teacher Xu and Liu Qianrou?" Although Ma Xinlan and Liu Qianrou didn't get along, as a responsible group leader, Ma Xinlan felt responsible for the whereabouts of her group members.

"Teacher Xu didn't get a good rest last night, so she'll rest today. Liu Qianrou couldn't sleep last night... so she went out to look at the stars and got cold, and she can't participate in the activities."

"Sister Liu, please don't stay in the yurt for the next few days. We'll stay in the tent until you're all better and then we can all play together again," Daiyu added, so they wouldn't wonder why Liu Qianrou wasn't recuperating here while she was sick.

"Oh." Ma Xinlan nodded in understanding. In the past, when they were sick, they would not live with others for fear of passing on their illness to others. It seems that Liu Qianrou has also moved to another place, so the Liu family has all gone with her.

As they were talking, the students had already mounted their horses.

Daiyu also rode her horse to the side of the three springs and greeted them all with a smile.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Yuan Hongqu shook the reins and spurred her horse toward the venue.

When they arrived at the venue, the other groups of students were already seated in their designated places.

In front of them was a fence, inside which was the performance venue for today. It looked very simple, but the performance was anything but rough.

As soon as the original members of the tribe sat down, they saw the tribe's second prince, dressed in his finest attire, walk to the center of the field with a grin and recite a welcoming speech in broken Chinese.

Although his Chinese wasn't very good, the welcome speech, which he didn't know who wrote, was witty and humorous, making the students laugh out loud.

Next came a series of welcoming performances on the grassland, such as presenting hada scarves and offering mare's milk wine.

Yuan Hongqu had always opposed such young students coming into contact with alcoholic beverages. None of them were over eighteen, and in her opinion, they should never have been exposed to a single drop of alcohol.

But the child on the grassland, who looked to be only a little over ten years old, drank mare's milk wine as if it were water, which made the students eager to try it as well.

Yuan Hongqu had previously researched the ingredients of mare's milk wine, but ultimately replaced it with yogurt.

The milk from the grassland is fresh and has few impurities. When added to a yogurt starter, it can ferment overnight to produce a very good-tasting yogurt, which is in no way inferior to the yogurt that Yuan Hongqu carefully ferments in the space.

Yuan Hongqu gave the yogurt starter to the grassland tribe, in exchange for the fact that all the mare's milk wine served at this welcoming ceremony was replaced with this yogurt.

The students drank the yogurt heartily, and most of them felt that it tasted a bit like the yogurt in the academy, but seemed to be even better.

There's no way around it; it's milk from its place of origin, and its freshness is incomparable to the milk the academy buys from the suburbs.

After the ceremony, a series of performances will follow.

The dances on the grasslands are bold and unrestrained, exuding a wild and healthy beauty.

Many of the students had seen grassland dance performances at the banquet, but compared to the authentic grassland dances, what were those performances at the banquet? They were just imitations, and not even well done.

"Sister Lin, is Miss Liu's illness serious? Shall we go visit her later?" Yingchun was watching the performance but seemed a little distracted.

Ever since she heard that Liu Qianrou couldn't sleep at night, she wondered if what happened on the way yesterday had left Liu Qianrou with something on her mind, which was why she couldn't sleep well.

Sigh, Liu Qianrou's illness is somewhat related to me.

Yingchun felt a little uncomfortable whenever she thought about this.

"Second Sister, don't overthink it." Daiyu was watching the women's wrestling performance with great interest, but she also heard Yingchun's words.

"Sister Liu's illness has nothing to do with you, so we don't need to visit her."

"That's right, Second Sister, I just said, how could Miss Liu's illness have anything to do with you? You just keep getting stuck on this." Tan Chun looked at Ying Chun with exasperation.

Originally, Jia Tanchun looked down on her older sister Yingchun the most, but now things are different.

It's all because Yingchun has a wonderful brother and sister-in-law who make everyone jealous.

In the past two years, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng have made a fortune, their reputation has improved day by day, and they have truly gained control of the household.

Moreover, the couple doted on their younger sister, Yingchun.

Although Yingchun has a father and a stepmother, they basically ignore her.

Unlike Tan Chun herself, who had to respect her stepmother, her biological mother would constantly cause trouble, and there was also Jia Huan, who was an even bigger scoundrel, who often made her suffer.

Yingchun now has the care and love of her elder brother and sister-in-law who manage the household. Although the three springs' food, clothing and daily necessities are no different, the difference between having the support of her elder brother and sister-in-law and having no one to support them is not small.

Sometimes Tan Chun really wishes she could switch places with Ying Chun!

"Yesterday was a minor conflict between us, and I took this opportunity to make up with her. Otherwise, I would still be holding a grudge," Yingchun said calmly.

On the field, a young girl was skillfully performing equestrian skills, drawing cheers from the students.

Daiyu was engrossed in the reading, but Yingchun's voice still came clearly to her ears.

Seeing the little girl skillfully rein in her horse and ride off to rest, Daiyu then turned to Yingchun.

"Since my sister feels bad about it, let's go check on her this afternoon. She might be feeling bored and want to talk to someone!"
