Xiao Lingling's heart softened for a moment, and she quickly stepped forward to hold Jingrun in her arms, turning her back to block everyone's teasing gazes.
She covered her mouth and whispered in Jingrun's ear, "My dear, can I introduce you to a master? He is very powerful and has read many more books than my sister.
Moreover, this master is very gentle and likes reading as much as you do. What do you think?"
Su Jingrun's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he whispered back, "Really?"
"Yes, of course it's true. Sister never lies! Do you want a master like this?"
Su Jingrun nodded obediently, "I want it!" After saying that, he frowned again, "But, but I don't want the master."
Little Bell was a little confused, "Oh? Why is that?"
Su Jingrun's voice was not small, and Liu Jingrou, who had been paying attention, heard it and hurried to help explain.
"Hey! This is really a misunderstanding. I once took him to celebrate the birthday of the old lady of Qingshan Academy. You know, although the old man loves talents, he is also a bookworm. He even took out a book to read a couple of pages when changing the drinks.
Now, he saw it, and for some reason he had a bad impression of Mr. Huo.
As a result, he didn't like the two masters he found before and drove them both away."
Su Jingrun didn't get angry when his mother exposed him. Instead, he nodded crisply, "I just don't like it! I like reading, but I don't like studying too hard. I don't want to be a nerd!"
His words were so powerful that Xiao Lingling smiled helplessly.
Indeed, many people feel that their thoughts are limited by books after reading too much.
She also didn't like those rigid and inflexible old pedants, but her elder brother was not like that.
Maybe it’s because my eldest brother personally escaped a disaster with me, and he has experienced life and death, so he has a better understanding of many things.
Although he loves reading, he has his own unique insights into every book, and sometimes even Mr. Huo would admire him.
Although my eldest brother is not a genius, he has a unique talent for studying.
So the person she wanted to introduce to Jingrun was the eldest brother!
If Jingrun can be educated well, then the eldest brother will be able to accumulate a lot of blessings.
This is a good thing!
"Don't worry, I won't introduce you to anyone like them. How about I introduce my eldest brother to you? He's your Brother Wen!"
Jing Run's eyes lit up, "Oh, yes, and Brother Wen!"
"Yes, Big Brother loves reading the most, but he's not too rigid. If you study with him, won't it be a lot easier?"
Jing Run was obviously happy, with the corners of his mouth raised high, "Okay! Then I will take Brother Wen as my master! Mother, is that okay?"
Liu Jingrou didn't hesitate at all. "Okay, you can choose whoever you like as your teacher. Besides, your brother Wen's literary talent is obvious, so it will definitely be easy for him to teach you."
Hearing that his mother also agreed, Jingrun became obviously excited, and his usually calm personality began to stir.
This is because Lin Wen is not at home, otherwise he would have run over immediately to become his disciple.
Everyone was talking and laughing, and it was quite lively. After a while, the sound of a carriage was heard outside.
When they walked into the yard, they saw Su Jingshuo walking in with a stiff look.
Little Bell smiled and said, "Oh, not bad, you can walk by yourself now?"
Su Jingshuo felt a little embarrassed and awkward, but still walked in by himself.
"Thanks to your medicine, I haven't fully recovered yet, but it doesn't affect my ability to walk slowly anymore."
Xiao Lingdang was still very confident in her medicine. Seeing this, she waved at him and said, "Come on, sit down. I'll take your pulse again, just to be sure."
How was the journey? Did you encounter any danger?
Su Jingshuo sat down gently and immediately shook his head, "Really not. I was still wondering why I suddenly wanted all the pursuits to stop."
Xiao Lingling lowered her head and did not answer, but she knew that something must have happened in the palace.
Although she didn't pay special attention to the follow-up, she still listened to it.
Seeing this, Liu Jingrou quickly changed the subject, "Your Highness, Fifth Prince, I wonder how the flood in the south is being dealt with? I think it has been successfully handled this time."
Su Jingshuo keenly noticed something, but in the end he did not continue to ask questions. Instead, he answered Liu Jingrou's questions.
"Not bad. Thanks to Little Bell's help, both the flood and the plague were dealt with promptly. I didn't actually do anything, so I feel a little guilty for claiming such great credit."
Liu Jingrou didn't know what Xiao Lingdang had done in the south. She just thought that he had saved him, so she comforted him with a few words.
Xiao Lingling still maintained the same attitude. She didn't want any credit. As long as Su Jingshuo and Su Daocheng knew about it, it was enough.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Su Jingshuo had no choice but to accept it.
That afternoon, Xiao Lingdang prepared a new decoction based on his current physical condition and arranged acupuncture for him. By the evening, Su Jingshuo was obviously able to move more freely.
Late at night, Xiao Lingling did not go to the space to practice for the first time, but waited in the room instead.
Not long after, someone knocked on the window of her room.
Little Bell was not surprised at all. She went to the window and opened it on her own, revealing the person standing outside.
It was Su Jingshuo.
He no longer had the high-spirited look he had during the day. Instead, he looked dejected, and his eyes were full of self-blame as he looked at Xiao Lingling.
The first thing I said was, "I'm sorry!"
Little Bell was not surprised.
Normally, Su Jingshuo shouldn't stay here for long.
Since this is a flood-related matter, he should return to Beijing to report as soon as possible, after all, the longer the night, the more trouble he will have.
But he still came!
That means he already knows about the Lin family.
He came here specifically to apologize.
If he had not had an accident and taken Xiao Lingling away, perhaps the tragedy of the Lin family would not have happened.
But there's no point saying more now.
He rode at full speed all the way back, and never stopped no matter how much pain he felt.
Whenever he thought of Xiao Lingling's sad face, he felt guilty.
But he rushed over, but apart from saying sorry, he didn't know what to say.
Xiao Lingling looked at him steadily, and after a moment she sighed, "This matter is not your fault. If anyone really needs to be blamed, it should be that greedy Xiang Fei!
If you're just here to apologize, I accept your apology, and you don't have to blame yourself anymore."
Su Jingshuo shook his head repeatedly, "No, I'm here to apologize, but not just to apologize! I want to tell you, don't do anything stupid!
Qin Shuxiang was a very vicious woman, and countless people had died at her hands.
If you go against her, it will only bring you endless troubles. It’s better for you to let me do it.
Anyway, I've been at war with her for a long time! Don't worry, if the day ever comes when I can capture her, I'll definitely bring her over to you!"
