When Si Ruoyun woke up, she saw that her room was covered with fluffy carpets, and even the corners of the table were covered with fluffy carpets.
The new maid was standing at the door. When she heard the noise inside the room, she knocked on the door.
"Is Miss Yun awake?"
Si Ruoyun blinked, a little confused. Why wasn't it Sister Zhu Cui today?
"I'm awake, come in."
The little girl said softly.
Then a girl whose appearance was not as gorgeous as the ones with pearls and jade, and who was much more ordinary, walked in.
This girl was the person newly arranged by He Kangle to take care of Si Ruoyun's daily life. Her name was Hua Cai.
"Hey, where's Sister Zhu Cui?"
Si Ruoyun looked at Hua Cai curiously.
Huacai seemed much more taciturn than Zhucui, and her answers were also very formal: "Sister Zhucui fell down while getting up last night, and hit her head on the corner of the table. When we found her, she was already dead."
Si Ruoyun let out a cry, and her expression suddenly became gloomy.
She knew what death was, and she knew what death meant.
"Then you have to be careful."
The little girl did not show too much sadness to Huacai, but reached out and patted Huacai's shoulder, giving her serious instructions.
Now that Sister Huacai is by her side, if she only cares about being sad for Zhucui, Huacai might feel that Si Ruoyun doesn't like her.
So although Si Ruoyun was sad, she hid this emotion.
"I know." Hua Cai nodded. "Fairy Kangle was worried you might fall at night, so after learning about this last night, she laid a carpet for you."
To others, He Kangle always said that Zhu Cui fell down by herself.
And you have to do the whole show, right?
If it were normal, Si Ruoyun would definitely be very happy, but she was not in a good mood, and just said "oh" reluctantly, and then went to do morning lessons silently.
Hua Cai looked a little dull, and just followed Si Ruoyun silently.
Quan Ke was also assigned an extra girl to take care of his daily life.
When Quan Ke and Si Ruoyun met, they looked at each other in surprise.
Of course, Quan Ke knew very well what happened last night.
——He was so kind-hearted that he even sold out his teammates.
"Big Brother, I'll leave Ruoyun and Quanke in your care."
He Kangle said with a smile as he led Cheng Yu inside.
In the past, she asked a mortal to teach Si Ruoyun and the others the knowledge from books, which must have been a wrong approach.
After all, human hearts are unpredictable.
He Kangle has learned his lesson and the new maids he has replaced are all a little dull, but quite steady.
As for why she didn't do it herself...
Of course it was because He Kangle wanted to have more contact with Cheng Yu, she wanted to become Cheng Yu's Taoist partner!
Cheng Yu glanced at He Kangle, but did not point out his little thoughts.
After all, he has no disciples now, so he is inevitably a little lonely.
Moreover, Yushan built a cenotaph for Si Lingyu, and Chengyu couldn't help feeling sad when she saw it.
Because she would never see Zhu Cui again, Si Ruoyun was in a bad mood. When the little girl arrived at the study, she lay on the table, and her whole body seemed to be emitting black air.
Xiaobai jumped around in front of Si Ruoyun, patting her face with her paws from time to time. Si Ruoyun was too lazy to pay attention to her and just lay there stupidly.
Xiaobai was very anxious, but didn't know what to do.
Si Lingfeng, come quickly, your sister is depressed!
As soon as Cheng Yu entered the room, she met Si Ruoyun who was in a daze and Quan Ke who looked confused.
He coughed, attracting Si Ruoyun's attention.
The little girl looked up quickly and saw Cheng Yu holding a bag in her hand, half leaning against the door, looking at her with a gentle smile.
"Master Uncle!"
Si Ruoyun's eyes lit up and she called out.
"Why."
Cheng Yu responded, took two steps forward and stood in front of Si Ruoyun.
"Here, I heard you weren't in a good mood today. Here are some cakes that are specialties of Shenglan City. I wonder which one you like."
Cheng Yu put the bag on the table. The bag didn't look big, but it contained a lot of food. Because she didn't know which one Si Ruoyun would like, Cheng Yu bought one of each.
His feelings towards Si Ruoyun were partly out of love for her and partly out of genuine affection for the younger generation.
"Thank you, Master."
Si Ruoyun cheered and called Quan Ke and Xiaobai to come over to share the food.
noob:???
Are you so easily bribed?
Xiaobai's fox eyes widened as he stared in amazement at Si Ruoyun who happily started eating.
Cheng Yu smiled as he watched the two kids sharing the cakes, and he knew that children all liked these things.
Si Ruoyun and Quan Ke were full after eating only a little. The little girl carefully divided the remaining pastries into several portions, wrapped one portion for Quan Ke, and wrapped the rest carefully and put them into a small bag.
Cheng Yu also had a piece of cake in her hand, and Si Ruoyun would not forget to give Cheng Yu a few pieces.
"Why did you divide it into so many portions? Do you want to save them for a few days and eat them all?"
Cheng Yu squatted down, looked at Si Ruoyun straight in the eye, and asked curiously.
"No." Si Ruoyun shook her head. "This is delicious. I want to save one portion for my sister, one portion for my master, one portion for my brother Ye Fan, and one portion for my sister Hua Cai."
The little girl counted on her fingers carefully.
Cheng Yu paused and didn't say anything that they probably wouldn't care about these things. The little girl had a pure heart, so why should he discourage her?
"Okay, now that we're full, it's time to start today's homework."
Cheng Yu patted the pastry crumbs on her hands.
"Today we are going to talk about life and death."
Cheng Yu and Zhu Cui were quite different. Zhu Cui read from the book word for word and even asked Si Ruoyun and Quan Ke to write big characters, but Cheng Yu didn't even take half the book.
He spoke freely, but he could make anything he said interesting and witty.
"Birth, old age, sickness and death, the cycle of life and death, this is the law of nature. Not only mortals, but even cultivators cannot escape it."
“People are born knowing that they will die one day, just as leaves turn yellow and fall from branches, and the ground becomes moist after heavy rain.”
"Death is nothing to be afraid of. A monk's life is long. In our lives, we will always encounter various kinds of separation between yin and yang."
"Ruoyun, are you sad now?"
Cheng Yu suddenly looked at Si Ruoyun.
Si Ruoyun nodded obediently. Of course she was sad.
She didn't even see Zhu Cui for the last time.
Who could have thought that before she went to bed last night, Sister Zhu Cui tucked in the quilt and blew out the lights for her, but when she woke up, she would be separated from the Yin and Yang forever?
"Good boy, there's nothing to be ashamed of when someone close to you leaves." Cheng Yu stroked the soft hair on Si Ruoyun's head, "But we can't stay trapped in this sadness forever."
"But I'm still so sad." Si Ruoyun muttered softly.
She understands the truth.
"Then let it out." Cheng Yu paused, looking at the two little ones cunningly, "Do you want to go bungee jumping?"
