"Let me speak first!" Qiaoqiao raised her hand high and said excitedly, "I want to drink peach wine."
"No, your teeth haven't grown in yet, why would you drink?" Bai Zhi thought, "Look at your lack of ability, if I ask you to make a wish, it's to drink."
Qiaoqiao put on a pitiful look, looked at Baizhi with tears in her eyes, and tried to plead for herself again: "Miss, Miss is the best, this is my greatest wish."
Bai Zhi comforted him, "According to the laws of our dynasty, people become adults at the age of 16, and you still need more than a year to reach that point. When you become an adult, I will buy you a jar of wine to drink as you please. Don't think about it now, and change your wish."
Seeing Bai Zhi's firm attitude, Qiaoqiao wilted and muttered, "I'm living such a good life now. I have everything I want. How can I have any other wishes?"
"Then keep yours for now. When you have made up your mind, bring it up again." Bai Zhi turned to Lin Chuqi and asked, "Chuqi, what is your wish?"
Lin Chuqi pinched the corner of his clothes and didn't say anything for a long time, as if he was a little embarrassed to speak. Qiaoqiao gently pushed him and said, "Hurry up and tell me. If you don't tell me, I'll tell you for you."
"I, I will say it myself." Lin Chuqi gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, "Third Madam, can I call you Miss like Qiaoqiao?"
Bai Zhi didn't expect that after all this time, the child only made such a small wish. She grabbed Lin Chuqi's hair and messed it up, saying loudly, "Of course!"
"See, I told you that Miss would agree!" Qiaoqiao also scratched Lin Chuqi's hair, making a bird's nest on it. Lin Chuqi was totally unaware, her eyes sparkling: "Miss!"
"I'm here, I'm here." Bai Zhi said, "Okay, now that we've expressed our wishes, let's start studying."
After so many days of suspension of classes, the two children were inevitably a little out of touch. Seeing their empty heads, Bai Zhi simply stopped the lesson and led them to the pavilion, where she told them some strange stories while letting them enjoy the breeze. She paced them, and after an hour, she only had the most exciting part of her story left. Then she said nothing more and the two children ran back to the house to find the book.
Bai Zhi took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, and shouted to someone not far away: "My dear, you have been there for quite a long time, I will buy you a cup of tea!"
A burly man on a rock a dozen steps away had been watching with great interest for a long time. When he heard Bai Zhi calling him, he stood up and came over. He saluted Bai Zhi and said loudly, "Nice to meet you, Miss Bai. I'm Fu Yao. I often hear Yunchuan mention Miss Bai. Seeing her today, I find she's really extraordinary!"
"So you are His Highness's friend. Nice to meet you. Brother Fu is too polite." Bai Zhi poured him a cup of hot tea. "Brother Fu, you are here to look for His Highness. Unfortunately, he is not here at the moment. Brother Fu, please wait for a moment."
Fu Yao said cheerfully, "Hahahahahahahaha, Miss Bai, there's no need to be polite. From now on, I will be Yunchuan's servant. So, I have to call Miss Bai the Third Madam."
Book boy? Who? This burly man who is three times bigger than her? Bai Zhi was startled and didn't say anything. Fu Yao didn't get angry when he saw this. He patted his chest in a very chivalrous manner and said, "Miss Bai, don't look at me as big and strong. I am a piece of gold and jade. Before coming here, I deliberately shaved my full beard. The barber even said that I looked like a scholar after shaving my beard. Hahahahaha!"
This Fu Yao's personality is really interesting. Bai Zhi smiled and said, "The barber is right. Brother Fu has the face of a scholar and the body of a warrior. Isn't this called being both civil and military?"
Fu Yao slapped his hand on the table and said happily, "Miss Bai, you're right!"
Bai Zhi continued, "Since you are going to live in the Marquis' Mansion for a long time, I will go and arrange a room for Brother Fu first."
"Hey, Miss Bai, don't work too hard. Yunchuan sent me a letter saying that Miss Bai has helped us brothers a lot since she came here. I have always wanted to meet Miss Bai." Fu Yao's expression became serious. "Miss Bai, you know all the things behind this. It is related to Prince Jing's plan to redress his grievances and revive the Thirteen States. Please stay for a while, Miss Bai, and don't just leave."
Bai Zhi placed her hands on the table, tapping her fingertips one by one, and asked calmly, "Brother Fu, Chu Yunchuan just said something similar to me yesterday. I'm curious. Why do all of you brothers think I'm going to leave? What big thing are you going to do next? What big thing will scare me away?"
Fu Yao paused and asked, "Yunchuan has never told Miss Bai about this?"
"It seems like he wanted to tell me a few days ago, but when I asked him yesterday, he didn't want to say it anymore. Now I want to listen to it." Bai Zhi said, "Brother Fu, should I know about your lifeline plan?"
"This is strange. He said before that he planned to tell Miss Bai everything. I guess the time is not right yet. Don't worry, Miss. He will tell you these things sooner or later."
Bai Zhi stared at Fu Yao and asked, "Brother Fu, don't you doubt me at all?"
"Doubtful girl? Where did you get that from?"
"Doctor Fang asked me if I had any other intentions in staying here."
"Don't be surprised, Miss Bai. Zhiheng is used to planning for Yunchuan, and he always thinks a few steps ahead." Fu Yao said, "To be honest with Miss Bai, Yunchuan often mentioned you in every word of the letter he wrote to me. He trusts you. I have no reason to doubt you."
Bai Zhi felt very relieved after hearing this. She was in a good mood and straightened her clothes and stood up: "It's almost time for dinner. Come on, Brother Fu, I'll prepare a welcoming banquet for you."
"Don't worry, don't worry, Miss Bai. Looking at the sun, Yunchuan should be back." Fu Yao looked towards the entrance of Yishuiyuan and suddenly said hesitantly, "Miss Bai, this is Yunchuan, right?"
Bai Zhi also looked over there. Gu Yan was walking towards them at a brisk pace. "Brother Fu, have you never seen what he looks like after he changed his appearance?"
Fu Yao sighed, "I have indeed never seen him. In the past two years since he hid in the mansion, we have only communicated by carrier pigeon. It has been a long time since we last met."
"Fu Yao!"
Fu Yao took two steps forward, hooked his arm around Gu Yan's shoulders, and said with a loud laugh, "You kid, you can't call me Mr. Mei now."
When old friends meet again, it is inevitable to feel sentimental. Gu Yan looked Fu Yao up and down for a long time, and all he had to say disappeared. In the end, he just smiled and said, "You look like a perfect book boy." He looked at Bai Zhi and said, "Bai Zhi, let me introduce you..."
"What's the point of introducing me? Brother Fu and I have been chatting for quite a while." Bai Zhi waved her hand tactfully, "You guys chat about your own things. I won't get involved. Brother Fu, do you have any dietary restrictions?"
Fu Yao: "No, no, I'll trouble you, Miss Bai."
