Early the next morning.
Su Liuer, Zhou Da, Ying Li, and the two children Zhou Chong and Zhu Hongan gathered at the shop and prepared to set off for Shanghe County together.
Before leaving, Su Liuer comforted Ying Li, "You will have to work hard today. There will be a surprise when you get your salary tomorrow." She planned to give Ying Li a bonus as he had worked the hardest these days.
Moreover, he worked hard and never slacked off. Instead, he was more active as if he had been injected with chicken blood. Even Zhong Dafeng praised him when he secretly came to inspect him, which shows how well he performed in the shop in the past few days.
Good work should be rewarded appropriately.
Ying Li smiled carefree and said, "I'm not tired. I stay in the shop every day and it's so cool. Brother Zhou Da and Brother Dali are more tired running around outside every day. And you, Boss, have to take care of both sides, which is even more tiring!"
"I'm glad you think this way. I'll leave the shop to you today. Mrs. Wang is old, so please take care of her."
"Okay, boss! I'll wait for you guys back at the shop!"
Su Liuer took people to the town entrance and got on a donkey cart.
There was also a horse-drawn carriage accompanying the donkey cart.
It’s Jing Qingrong and Qingfeng.
The weather was hot, so Jing Qingrong asked Su Liuer to take the two children to sit in the carriage. Su Liuer let the children go, and she herself continued to sit in the donkey cart.
The sun was indeed hot, but she thought it was okay, it was just morning.
Zhu Hongan and Zhou Chong were sitting in the carriage, both of them were very well-behaved and quiet.
Jing Qingrong handed the two of them a plate of pastries.
Wenrou said, "It tastes very good, want to try it?"
Zhu Hongan and Zhou Chong looked at each other, then shook their heads and rejected Jing Qingrong's kindness.
Jing Qingrong continued gently, "Madam Su and I have a very good relationship. Since she is willing to let you ride in this carriage with me, then you don't have to be polite with me. Just try one piece each."
Zhu Hongan and Zhou Chong looked at each other again, and felt that what Jing Qingrong said made sense, so they nodded and each took a piece to eat.
Everything Jing Qingrong ate was exquisite, and the taste was naturally good, but after the two of them finished eating, they didn't eat any more and continued to sit quietly.
"I heard that you just took the monthly exam of the academy yesterday. How did you do?" Jing Qingrong wanted to chat more with Zhu Hongan to enhance their relationship, but after thinking about it, he found no topics to talk about, so he asked about the exam.
But both children were out having fun, so which one would feel happy when suddenly asked about the exam?
Zhu Hongan: "Alright, alright."
Zhou Chong: "I'm fine too."
Then the topic ended.
Qingfeng on the side shook his head. It was really true that his young master had no luck with women or children after arriving in Qingxi Town?
The carriage fell into silence again.
Jing Qingrong seldom interacts with children. He wants to recall his own childhood and find some topics to chat with Zhu Hongan, but he finds that his childhood was quite boring. He was either studying or learning business from his father.
Neither of these seemed appropriate to discuss with the two children in this situation.
I thought about it again and again, and pondered it over and over again.
Jing Qingrong finally figured it out.
"Do you two want to visit Guangling City?"
Zhu Hongan and Zhou Chong both nodded. Zhou Chong said, "Of course we want to go. Once we pass the spring exam and become a scholar, we'll have the chance to go to Guangling City during the autumn exam."
"Yeah." Zhu Hongan also looked longingly.
For the students of Dongling Kingdom, Guangling City is undoubtedly the place where they can realize their dreams, and they naturally want to go there.
Jing Qingrong smiled when he heard this, and then told the two of them about his various experiences in Guangling City.
