Seeing this, Jian Xiu stood up straight without hesitation and replied in a flattering manner:
"That's right. Shopkeeper Wu Mingtang told us before and asked us to come and see Dean Mo today."
"Oh? So that's how it is. You came from Zhangjia Village?" the doorman asked politely.
"Yes, yes, yes, 늀놆 came from Zhangjia Village."
"That's fine. Come with me! I'll lead you in. The dean happens to be in the academy right now."
"Then thank you for your help!" Jian Xiuwen said in a literary manner.
In fact, she also spoke very confidently.
Following the guidance of the doorman in front, after entering the gate, I saw a spacious courtyard at a glance.
The courtyard was shaded by green trees and filled with the fragrance of flowers, making Jian Xiu and the others who walked in feel relaxed and happy.
The palace in the distance is even more simple and solemn. The sun is shining brightly today, and the glazed tiles on the eaves are even more sparkling under the sunlight...
All of this seems to give a feeling of a peaceful and tranquil life.
"So, this is the academy." Jian Xiu murmured softly.
The doorman walking in front heard this and asked with a smile: "This is my first time entering the academy, right?"
"I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me, this is really my first time entering an academy!"
"I'm not nervous, just fine as usual."
At this point, the doorman stopped again and pointed to a specially fenced-off house in the distance ahead and said:
"That's it! That's our dean's residence. He doesn't have a door today. I think he should be waiting for you!"
"Thank you for your help!"
After that, Jian Xiu took out a small bundle of dried bamboo shoots from her backpack, stuffed it into the doorman's hand, and said:
"I brought this from home. It's not valuable. It's some food from home. Take it back and soak it overnight. Then stir-fry it the next day. It tastes really good."
"Girl, this is okay, you have to take it back quickly. If the dean finds out, he will skin me alive!" The doorman quickly refused.
"Look how scared you are. What kind of valuables are these? They are just some ordinary food from my home. I'll talk to the dean when I see him later."
As she said this, Jian Xiu stuffed the dried bamboo shoots into the doorman's hand.
Seeing this, the doorman was also helpless.
He could have collected these dried bamboo shoots, but seeing the look of the young lady in front of him, he felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
Nodding faintly to the doorman, Jian Xiu led the three children towards the small courtyard.
When Jian Xiu stood at the door and saw the scene inside the courtyard, she was stunned.
Even though she was an agent who was used to seeing all kinds of gardens in her life, she had to admire the creativity of the ancients.
The entire courtyard is carefully surrounded by a verdant bamboo fence, which is covered with green vines.
From the outside, you can only see the vines, but when you look closer, you will feel a sense of brightness.
The green leaves of the vines are dotted with a few elegant small flowers of various colors, exuding a faint fragrance.
In the center of the courtyard, a small rockery stands in the middle of the mountain, surrounded by rocks of various shapes, and the flowing water slowly slides down between the rocks...
Such scenery is simply a paradise on earth.
Jian Xiu was amazed and said that this really was the taste of a scholar.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Before Jian Xiu could open her mouth, she heard a boy's voice behind her.
Turning around, I saw a little boy who was about seven years old.
"We came from Zhangjia Village and have something to do with the dean!" Jian Xiu said politely.
"Oh, so you are looking for my grandfather? Then follow me in!" the little boy said politely.
Having said this, he pushed open the door and ran into the house.
"Grandfather, Grandfather..."
Seeing this, Jian Xiu and her mother had no choice but to stand in the yard.
But Jian Xiu was not the kind of person who would stop and go, so when she saw the flowers in the yard, she immediately became curious.
There was nothing else to do, because there were several kinds of flowers that she had never seen before.
The most serious thing is that she also saw the Sleeping Fire Lotus here.
You know, this Sleeping Fire Lotus only blooms for seven days every year.
And the petals will only open just before withering, which can be said to be very precious.
It is precisely because of the short flowering period of the Sleeping Fire Lotus that it is extremely precious.
Even in the last few days, she had only seen him once.
I didn't expect that I would have the honor to see it in this lifetime.
I have to say, the dean of this college is really simple.
Thinking of this, Jian Xiu walked towards the Sleeping Fire Lotus.
After seeing the dazzling flower above, my right hand stretched out unconsciously, but just when it touched the flower, I stopped abruptly.
"Do you know this flower?" Just as she withdrew her right hand, Jian Xiu heard a vigorous and powerful voice behind her.
Yu immediately turned around, saluted the middle-aged man in front of him, nodded, and said:
"I know this flower, the Sleeping Fire Lotus! Dean Mo calls me Jian Xiucheng!"
After saying this, he turned to Zhang Feixuan, Zhang Feiyi and Zhang Feilan and said, "Come and meet Dean Mo."
When the three siblings heard this, they hurriedly walked up to Mo Shanhuai and politely called out, "Hello, Dean Mo!"
"Well, is Wu Mingtang referring to you two?" Mo Shanhuai was obviously asking about Zhang Feixuan and Zhang Feiyi.
So Jian Xiu was tactful enough not to say anything.
She never worried about these simple conversations.
Yu 놆 continued to observe the Sleeping Fire Lotus in front.
She had to say that she was lucky today as she had come across a Sleeping Fire Lotus with such a short flowering period.
She looked at it carefully and really liked the flower.
Although Mo Shanhuai was not talking to the two brothers, his eyes were always on Jian Xiu.
Although Xuewen Academy is not an aristocratic academy, it is extremely strict in accepting students.
He doesn't care about the students' sex only, but their parents.
Although Jian Xiu didn't see the Sleeping Fire Lotus, she could hardly ignore Mo Shanhuai's gaze behind her because she was the agent.
Jian Xiu, who had studied psychology before, naturally knew what Mo Shanhuai was thinking, so she turned around and looked at Mo Shanhuai openly.
Mo Shanhuai was looking at Jian Xiu when he saw Jian Xiu suddenly looking towards him.
That generous look made Mo Shanhuai extremely satisfied.
He knew the situation at Jian Xiu's home, and Wu Mingtang had also told him about it.
