"Don't worry, Madam, Cai'er has memorized it!"
As she was talking, she hurried downstairs, holding the hem of her skirt. She had never worn such luxurious clothes before, and she looked very uncomfortable. Rong Zhen just went upstairs and saw Cai'er rushing downstairs. For a moment, he didn't recognize who she was. Looking at the excited Gu Yunru, he asked curiously: "Is the woman who just rushed downstairs Cai'er?"
"Yes, I made her look beautiful, right?!" Gu Yunru proudly straightened her chest with her hands on her chest. Cai'er watched Liang Xu walk out the door, then slipped out from the back door pretending to meet him. She accidentally bumped into him and knocked the things in his hands to the ground.
"I'm sorry, sir..." Cai'er lowered her head. Liang Xu did look helpless. He bent down and picked up the things.
"Don't blame the girl, it's all my fault for not holding these things firmly. Is the girl not hurt?"
"I'm not injured, but I'm afraid you might mind. This jade pendant is really beautiful. Can you show it to Cai'er? Cai'er thinks this jade pendant looks very familiar."
"Of course!" Cai'er took the jade pendant and couldn't help crying as she looked at it.
"Girl, what's wrong with you?" Liang Xu was shocked when he saw the girl looking at the jade pendant with a sad look on her face. Passersby thought he had done something to the girl and cast strange looks at him.
"Nothing, I just thought this jade pendant looked very familiar. I used to have one, but it's gone now. I wonder where you live, sir?"
Cai'er had forgotten some of the words because the lady had given her so many. She had to make up a plausible story and also make him feel pity and sympathy. How could it be so easy?
Liang Xu looked at her suspiciously and asked puzzledly: "Miss, what is your purpose in wanting to know where my home is?" Liang Xu looked at the girl in front of him. Cai'er stamped her feet anxiously and forgot her lines for a moment, so she had to lower her head and sneak back to Huajianlou.
Gu Yunru was waiting in the yard for Cai'er to tell her the good news, but she didn't expect Cai'er to start crying in front of her.
"I asked you to do such a small thing and you can't even do it right. I really don't know what to say to you..." Cai'er sobbed aggrievedly, "Madam is Cai'er. Please give Cai'er another chance. Cai'er will definitely make that scholar, oh, no... young master fall into the trap."
Gu Yunru yawned lazily and waved her hands, saying, "Forget it, forget it. My purpose is not to make him fall into my trap. Since he didn't act bold and daring towards you, I'll barely let him pass this test!"
"Really? Madam, can I change back into my original clothes?" Cai'er always felt awkward and uncomfortable wearing this dress, but she couldn't tell exactly where she felt uncomfortable. Gu Yunru nodded. This girl still wasn't used to her current life.
The scene changes to Su Mu's room.
Xiaoyu followed Xiangping diligently and learned a lot of knowledge. She stayed in the kitchen every day and it can be said that she put in a lot of thought and effort. Today is the day of the assessment.
Xiangping sat next to Hu Laotao with a pot of tea.
"Grandpa, this is my first time accepting a disciple. I hope this time I won't embarrass me!" Xiaoyu turned around and said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, Master, Xiaoyu will definitely not embarrass you!"
Xiangping nodded, and it was up to her to perform next.
Xiaoyu made a few cakes and pastries and placed them on the table. Xiangping and Hu Laotao tasted them one by one and found the taste to be delicate and not as dry as the first time she made them.
He put down his chopsticks, nodded and said, "Not bad, very well done." Xiaoyu rubbed his palms excitedly and said, "Really, Master? This is the first time you have praised Xiaoyu!"
Just then Cai'er walked in and bowed to Xiangping and Hu Laotao.
"Miss Xiangping, Mr. Hu wants to ask Xiaoyu to go to Huajianlou to discuss an important matter." Xiangping nodded and said, "Anyway, you have passed the exam, so I will give you half a day off this afternoon. Go ahead." Xiaoyu grinned excitedly. When they arrived at Huajianlou, Gu Yunru asked her to sit aside.
"Xiaoyu, you have been busy with Sumu Zhai's affairs these days, but you must not forget your lifelong event." Xiaoyu rubbed his head, his eyes full of doubts, "Lifelong event? But Xiaoyu has never thought about any lifelong event..."
"It's because you haven't considered it that I want to help you select someone. Recently, I checked out Mr. Liang and I think he is quite good. I will arrange a meeting for you tomorrow." Xiaoyu stood there awkwardly, frowning, as if he was very reluctant.
Rong Zhen also stepped forward and said to Gu Yunru: "If Xiaoyu doesn't want to, then forget it."
As soon as Xiaoyu heard Azhen's voice, he became restless.
"Who said that? Since my boss has arranged it for me, I'll go. I'll come back at this time tomorrow..." After saying that, he lowered his head and ran away in a hurry.
Gu Yunru thought that it would take a lot of persuasion to get Xiaoyu to agree, but she didn't expect that Rong Zhen would come out and make her completely surrender with just one sentence. Looking at Rong Zhen, she didn't know what kind of magic he used to make these little girls surround him and run around him.

Xiang Ping finished her tea in the yard and said to Hu Lao Tao, "Grandpa, I'm going to the mountain to see if there are any fresh ingredients." Hu Lao Tao immediately stopped her and said, "My dear granddaughter, what do you think about what grandpa told you last time? The young master of the Liang family is a dragon among men.
If you don't hold on to it, someone else might snatch it away!"
Xiang Ping turned around impatiently and said with a curled lip, "If he was really a treasure, he would have been snatched away by someone long ago, so how could it be my turn?
Besides, I have no interest in sex. I just want to study my recipes and combine medicinal food with meat. This is the direction I want to study. My granddaughter is really not interested in those things. "After Xiangping finished speaking, he walked away with his head held high.
She came to the back mountain alone, and saw Rong Zhen whom she met that day in the back mountain. She walked up to him and said hello, "Why are you here too?" Rong Zhen tied a crossbow to his waist, looked at her suddenly appeared, raised his mouth and said, "I came here to the edge of the cliff to see if there are any stone ears.
My wife said this ingredient is very precious, so I wanted to pick it myself."
"Stone ears grow on cliffs. How could your wife let you come here alone? It's very dangerous, and you can't pick stone ears with just one hand."
Realizing that he had said something wrong again, he quickly covered his mouth and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a person who can't control my mouth. My grandfather has taught me a lesson about this matter. I always speak too bluntly and it's easy to hurt others. Please don't hold it against me!"
