Master Liang sighed, then shook his head with a profound look on his face.
"It's precisely because you're so timid that you need to go out and gain experience." Master Liang, with a more dignified and unyielding demeanor, said with a serious expression, "In this Xiao Mansion, I'm not the only one teaching you. Do you know why I only invite you to the academy?"
That Dong Jinming...
Let them go wherever they want, he will never get involved.
"Of course it's because I'm the Seventh Young Master and he's the Cousin Young Master!" Xiao Cunyu deliberately angered him.
But Master Liang was now extremely magnanimous and was not disturbed at all: "Child, you are wrong."
“…”Xiao Cunyu.
"I've been invited to teach at several major academies and have the right to recommend three students. I've been a teacher for so many years and have met many young men your age, but none of them have ever made me cherish their talent..."
"Only you." Master Liang said solemnly, "I think you have a heart as delicate as jade. You are timid but not foolish, impulsive but not reckless, proud but not conceited. You possess qualities that many people in this world do not have. It is rare and precious."
“?!?” Xiao Cunyu was stunned.
Is this talking about her?
No, absolutely not!
She had been in Beijing for so long, and had been playing on her own for two months before her eldest brother brought her to study under Master Liang. She ran away from home after just a few days.
The number of times I met Master Liang was very few. Although I followed him and recited a few lines from the "Heavenly Book", eye contact was almost zero, let alone discussing his writings or understanding his character...
Of course she knew she was good, but...
What Master Liang boasted about was absolutely nonsense!
Xiao Cunyu looked at him clearly and didn't fall for it.
"Look, if an ordinary young man heard such praise, he would have become impetuous and complacent, but you look calm, which shows that what I said is right." Master Liang said again.
Master Liang's eyes flickered as he kept looking at her.
He had indeed only invited Xiao Cunyu, and the reason was...
Of course it’s not because she is a good child, but... it is really sad that such a beautiful child does not learn well. Moreover, although she is noisy and acts recklessly, her nonsense is actually quite effective, which makes her look like a good omen.
What he is best at is writing poems and composing sentences.
Ever since meeting Xiao Cunyu, his inspiration has been endless. He can't help but recall the lofty ambitions of his youth, or perhaps he was so angry that he wrote a lot of beautiful words and sentences with various artistic conceptions...
Master Liang looked at her with a smile: "You are the most talented child I have ever seen. I asked you to come here today to ask you which academy you want to attend."
"..." Xiao Cunyu turned his head, "I'm not going!"
"I have already made an appointment with your family's elders. If you don't go, I'm afraid it won't work." Master Liang was confident of winning.
She can run away.
"I have ambitions to travel far and wide, and I want to go out to study in a few days..." Xiao Cunyu grinned, "Master, it's also because I'm not destined to go there. You can go to the academy by yourself!"
"Is that so?" Master Liang subconsciously wanted to stroke his beard, but when he stretched out his hand, he found that his beard was gone.
He put down his hand with a look of disappointment. "Two days ago, I was chatting with your eldest brother and learned that he wanted you to make a difference in the capital, but he also knew that you have a wild personality. I'm afraid that in the future you might want to travel around like before..."
"If you want to leave, he can't stop you..."
"But... you're already sixteen, old enough to get married. You're the only child of the fifth branch of the Xiao family, and leaving home is fraught with danger... He's worried and determined that if you leave, he'll have to let you get married and have children first, only then can he..."
