Xiao Cunyu looked at the butler in disbelief.
The housekeeper thought she was also surprised by this, and quickly added, "Master Liang is a good man. He naturally doesn't want to abandon you. He has told the master and mistress that as long as the mansion doesn't agree, he will definitely stay here until his term is up. However, the master and mistress, and even the eldest young master, feel that they can't stand in the way of the master's reputation. Besides, there are more teachers in the academy, and the teachings are more comprehensive. Given this opportunity, you should give it a try."
Xiao Cunyu felt that he should run away again now.
But I can't afford to lose face!
It's only been less than an hour since you came in, and you're running away again?
I don’t know if it’s too late!
She was just thinking about it when the servant came in from outside. He immediately bowed respectfully when he saw Xiao Cunyu, and then said, "Seventh Young Master, our teacher heard that you are at home now, so he asked me to go find you..."
“…”What is coming cannot be avoided.
It’s too late to run now.
Xiao Cunyu walked with heavy steps, and did not let Tieyi follow him. He walked towards Master Liang with a dejected look.
After shaving his beard, Master Liang seemed like a completely different person.
I used to think he was an old man over fifty years old, but I didn’t expect that without the beard, he looked more than a generation younger!
His face became much whiter and less rigid, and he looked less like a teacher and more like a learned scholar. Even his eyes had more brilliance and were full of energy.
After losing his beard, Master Liang seemed to feel that the dark clothes looked a bit out of place, so he changed into a fresh set of clothes.
It really is much more pleasing to the eye.
"Master Liang." Xiao Cunyu politely bowed. After that, she remembered that the other party wanted to take her to the academy, so she straightened her back and said defiantly, "You still owe me one or two taels of silver for fortune-telling!"
She didn't forget!
Master Liang slowly put down the book and looked at Xiao Cunyu with eyes full of love!
"You have been going out before dawn these days and have not returned after dark. Even if I want to give you money, I don't have the chance." Master Liang said very kindly.
After saying this, he took out a tael of silver from his pocket.
“…” Xiao Cunyu felt a little uneasy.
He gave the money so readily, he must have no good intentions!
But, the money still has to be collected.
She walked over carefully, put the silver in her arms, and then asked, "I already know that you are going to the academy to be a teacher. I don't have any other intentions. Just go ahead and don't worry about me..."
"Sit down first." Master Liang raised his hand.
He even poured her a cup of tea.
This attitude really frightened Xiao Cunyu. Her face was solemn and she quickly said, "I'll do it myself..."
Master Liang nodded in satisfaction. "I knew it. Although you are a little naughty, you are very kind. Just as your elder brother said, if you had not been left undisciplined since childhood, you would definitely not be as idle as you are now..."
The corners of Xiao Cunyu's mouth twitched slightly.
She is a grown-up person. If she really wants to make progress, she can do it without anyone’s supervision!
She just... wants to play and doesn't want to study!
"Just say what you want to say... Of course, if you want me to go to the academy to study, then there's no need to persuade me..." Xiao Cunyu said embarrassedly, "Master, look, my cousin Dong at home almost scared me to death. If a timid person like me goes to the academy, won't I be eaten alive? It's too scary outside. I'll just stay at home, tell fortunes, chant spells, and prolong my life..."
