The sun shines on the earth, bringing a touch of warmth and brightness to people. Today, they have an important task, which is to buy gifts for visiting the master.

With full of joy and expectation, they stepped out of the house and walked briskly towards the market. Compared with the confusion of yesterday, they now have more determination and confidence in their hearts.

After a while, they arrived in front of a bookstore. When they opened the door, a faint scent of ink hit them. Mu Feng couldn't wait to walk to the counter and asked the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, do you have any inkstones here?"

The shopkeeper was busy sorting books. When he heard the voice, he slowly raised his head, glanced over his glasses, and asked slowly, "Oh, are you new here?"

Faced with this sudden question, Mu Feng was a little confused, but he still remained polite and replied with a smile: "Yes!"

The shopkeeper didn't seem to care about Mu Feng's answer and continued to organize the books.

After a long while, he said slowly, "We have many kinds of inkstones here, and they are of high quality. I wonder what kind of inkstone you need, young master?"

Mu Feng seemed to be thinking about what type of inkstone he wanted. Seeing this, Luo Yu said directly: "Shopkeeper, can you let us take a look at them all?"

The shopkeeper did not show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he put the books in order first, then turned around and called the waiter and said, "Come on, Fang, take these two guests to see the inkstones in our shop."

"Okay, please follow me~" The waiter enthusiastically led the two to the area where inkstones were placed.

Various kinds of inkstones are displayed here, including exquisite porcelain inkstones, simple stone inkstones, and precious Duan inkstones, etc.; they are not only made of different materials but also have a variety of shapes, and of course their prices vary greatly.

Faced with so many choices, Luo Yu was completely confused, but he knew that Mu Feng must be much more knowledgeable about these than he was, so he simply gave the decision-making power to him, saying that everything would be up to Mu Feng.

After careful consideration, Mu Feng decided to choose a plain stone inkstone as a gift, plus two brushes and some rice paper. He asked the waiter to pack the items and then went to check out.

Luo Yu, who was standing by, originally thought that Mu Feng would at least choose something more exquisite, but he didn't expect that he would only choose the most ordinary style. He couldn't help but wonder: Is it really appropriate to give such a gift? However, despite his doubts, Luo Yu still behaved very generously and paid the bill readily.

As soon as he left the store, Luo Yu couldn't hold back his curiosity anymore, and asked calmly, "Why did you choose these? Don't you think they're a little inappropriate?"

Facing Luo Yu's question, Mu Feng asked calmly: "Is there anything wrong with this? Do you feel that something is wrong?"

It seems that Mu Feng doesn't mind visiting the Master, but...

"There are so many well-made, beautifully shaped and finely textured inkstones here, why do you have to pick such an inconspicuous and ordinary one? Although our family is not rich, we can still afford more expensive inkstones based on our current financial situation! Why do you have to be so frugal? After all, this time you are going to meet the Master. If you can get the Master's favor and attention, it will definitely be of great benefit to your future development!"

Mu Feng looked at her, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a comforting smile, and then after some careful consideration, he slowly said: "Of course I know that with your current ability, you can definitely buy those more expensive inkstones, but for us, it is enough to just choose the ones that suit us; if the teacher only judges me based on the value of the gift I give, then such courtesy is better not to be used."

Although he comforted Luo Yu in this way, he was actually a little nervous in his heart. He hoped that he had not guessed the wrong person!

"That's fine, you decide!"

If a teacher would only accept a student if he had to give expensive gifts, then Mu Feng would rather not go to such a school!

When passing by a dim sum shop, Luo Yu stopped and walked in. The dazzling array of dim sum in the shop was dazzling, but Luo Yu fell in love with one of the dim sums with extremely exquisite appearance at first sight.

She carefully picked up the dessert and looked at its delicate shape and attractive color, as if she was appreciating a work of art. Then, she turned to the shop owner and said, "Please help me carefully pack this."

Then, she picked up another snack and planned to eat it while walking on the road with Luo Ci.

Luo Yu secretly thought that if the teacher didn't like the gift from Mu Feng, he might like the snack she carefully selected! In this way, it could be considered to have earned him some favor.

After all, she had heard from Aunt He that this snack shop in the county town was well-known and had an excellent reputation. Bringing such high-quality snacks to visit was enough to show her respect for the other party. Thinking of this, Luo Yu couldn't help but reveal a smug smile.

Mu Feng raised his lips slightly, as if he had seen through her thoughts, and said with a doting look in his eyes: "You! Are you so worried that the Master won't accept me?"

Luo Yu stuck out his tongue mischievously and replied with a grin, "You are so outstanding, I am naturally not worried that the teacher will not choose you! It's just that I also want to do my best to help you!"

There was determination and enthusiasm in her eyes, as if she was showing her determination to Mu Feng.

Such an important matter as visiting the Master cannot be neglected.

After a simple lunch outside, I returned to the inn and of course took a shower and changed clothes!

After everything was ready, the family of three got on the carriage and went to meet Uncle Cai and Aunt He.

Uncle Cai saw the three of them coming towards him from afar. He noticed that the clothes they were wearing were the most fashionable styles in the county these days. He guessed that they must have bought these clothes yesterday.

They came here specially today to pay their respects to the Master, which is enough to show how much they value the Master.

In order to make them less nervous, Uncle Cai deliberately joked, "Oh my, you all put on new clothes! Especially our Luo Yu, she is such a beauty! Ah Ci is also very cute! As for Mu Feng, he looks more stable and has a scholarly air! I believe that after the teacher sees you, he will like you very much and be willing to keep you, so don't worry at all!"
