She smiled again and asked, "Did you know that pocket watches and other things were all brought back from the West?"
"I know." Qingtian nodded cautiously, not knowing what Madam Lu meant by this.
"Then let me tell you something you don't know. When I was young, I once sailed to the Western Ocean.
“I’ve been to many places there and seen many people and things that are different from our country.
"Most importantly, I can speak Western! Do you want to learn from me?"
After Madam Lu finished speaking, she saw a flash of curiosity in Qingtian's eyes and his attention was focused on her. She immediately showed off her skills and said something in a gibberish that made no sense.

Madam Lu felt that she had already compromised enough by giving in to this extent.
You know, usually those wealthy families in Beijing wanted to invite her to be a tutor for their daughters, but she turned them all down and didn't like any of them.
