At night, Mu Run washed up and went to bed, completely forgetting the promise she had made to someone the night before.
The next morning, the steward of the manor found Mu Run.
Mu Run was about to go to the library with Qiao Yu and the others to clean up, thinking of teaching them a few more words.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Mu Run asked the steward.
The steward said, "The master wants to see you."
Fu Yunchen? Right! She almost forgot!
Mu Run hurriedly said to Xiao Xing, "Hey, didn't you say someone's dog had puppies? The adults want some puppies, go ask if they can keep a few?"
Xiao Xing was stunned for a moment, then slapped her thigh and ran away, "I have to go and check quickly, lest Aunt Wang throw it away."
If no one wants the puppies, the dog owner will usually abandon some of them, or even all of them, to prevent the old dog from overworking and losing too much of its health.
"Why didn't you tell me sooner about something so important?" Qiaoyu whispered to Murun.
"I simply forgot."
"Let's go, Hualing, the master is waiting for you," the steward urged Murun.
Mu Run replied, "Alright, thank you for your help, Steward."
Upon arriving at Fu Yunchen's study, Mu Run knocked on the door.
"Come in," Fu Yunchen's deep voice rang out.
Mu Run listened to his voice and saw that he didn't seem unhappy, so she pushed the door open and went in.
"What business does the master have with me?"
Fu Yunchen looked at Mu Run, who was standing far away at the door, and said, "Come closer."
"Oh." Mu Run took a step closer.
Fu Yunchen: "...I'm a tiger, can I eat you?"
Mu Run thought to himself: ...You're even more ruthless than a tiger! A tiger eats people and spits out the bones, but you just melt the bones away!
She took another dozen steps closer and finally stopped in front of the desk. "What business does my master have with me?"
Fu Yunchen handed her a piece of paper. "This is the recipe for a cold-dispelling soup."
“A soup to dispel cold…” Mu Run suddenly realized that she had asked him to teach her how to make a soup to dispel cold the day before, and he had promised to teach her in the kitchen at night… but she didn’t go last night!
"Ten days later, at the first watch of the night, wait at the back door."
"It's already past midnight, isn't it? What would I be doing going to the back door? Besides, it's too dangerous for a girl like me."
Who is more dangerous, the second most skilled assassin in the Imperial Clan...?
"Just wait, don't eat dinner."
They won't even let us eat...
"Remember this, if you forget again this time, you'll be punished along with last night's broken promise."
"There are other punishments?"
Shouldn't breaking a promise be punished?
"Yes, sir! I've got it all. Is there anything else you need, sir?" She still had to teach Qiaoyu and Xiaoxing to read.
Fu Yunchen tapped the table lightly with his long, slender fingers. "I'd like some tea."
"Okay, I understand." Mu Run turned and left.
Not long after, Qiao Dongzi brought tea into the study. "Boss, have some tea."
Fu Yunchen: "...I'm full."
Qiao Dongzi: "??"
...
Holding the prescription for the cold-dispelling soup, Mu Run went to the library.
Qiaoyu, seeing that she had returned so quickly, assumed that nothing was wrong. "What does the master want with you?"
"Oh, you gave me a recipe for a cold-dispelling soup. Perfect, let's test you on which characters you recognize." Mu Run handed the soup recipe to Qiao Yu.
Qiaoyu took it, then looked at the beautiful, flowing characters that resembled paintings, and shook her head. "I don't recognize them. Adults' characters are all connected together."
Mu Run glanced at it and said, "Oh, then I'll copy it down. Today we'll learn how to make this cold-dispelling soup."
Xiao Xing also returned, carrying a rather large bamboo basket.
"Hua Ling, Hua Ling, look, I've brought the puppies back."
