"Yun Shu, is that old craftsman really that hard to hire?"

Shen Chu was walking on the road, and asked Yun Shu beside him out of boredom, wanting to get an accurate answer from Yun Shu.

Yun Shu, who always liked to pass the buck, was uncharacteristically so today and directly answered Shen Chu's question, "Well, it's not very easy to please."

His voice was the same as always, calm but with a hint of coldness, but when he mentioned this old man, his face showed a hint of annoyance.

Among the people sent by His Highness to invite the old craftsman, he was one of them.

At that time, Yun Shu had already heard relevant information from his companions and knew how difficult this old man was, but he still wanted to give it a try.

What if it succeeds?

But it turns out that there is no such thing as a chance.

Even if such a low-probability event were to happen, it would not happen to him.

"Go back to where you came from. I hate government officials the most in my life."

When Yun Shu heard these words, he subconsciously frowned.

He was not a member of the official family, but of the royal family.

So Yun Shu refuted the other party, "I am not a member of the Guan family."

The bad-tempered old craftsman's expression immediately changed after hearing these words, his tone became a little better, and the anger on his wrinkled face was a little less.

He glanced at Yun Shu and asked him, "If you are not from the government, then whose are you from?"

Yun Shu directly told the old man, "I am from the royal family."

If the old man's face was only a little ugly at first because he misunderstood that he was a member of the official family, then now after hearing Yun Shu say with his own ears that he was a member of the royal family, not only was the old man's face extremely ugly, but even fire was flashing in his turbid eyes.

"Royal, royal lackey...get out of here right now! Otherwise, even if I have an old bone, I will beat you, a lackey who works so hard for the royal family, to death!"

The voice was simply shouted, and although it was hoarse, one could see the anger rising from it.

Seeing that the other party hated the royal family so much, Yun Shu wanted to draw his sword and eliminate the other party on the spot, but he regretted it halfway through drawing the sword.

It can't be said that he regretted it, but when he was halfway through drawing the sword, he suddenly thought of something and stopped.

This is the person His Highness is looking for. If he kills him, what will happen if His Highness fails to accomplish what he wants to do?

It was precisely because of this that Yun Shu did not take action.

But this doesn't mean that Yun Shu just let it go.

So when Yun Shu heard Shen Chu ask this question, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "He's very stubborn. I can't convince him."

At the end of his words, Yun Shu added, "He must have had grudges against the royal family and the government. Judging from his behavior, he hates both types of people."

Shen Chu couldn't help but open his eyes wide when he heard this.

uh-huh?

What do you mean?

Hate the official family?

Still hate the Royals?

Wouldn't it be even more annoying for him that she, the daughter of an official, was entangled with the prince?

"It's okay, we'll talk about it when we get there."

Shen Chu didn't know whether he was comforting himself or enlightening Yun Shu, and the expression on his face didn't change much.

Seeing the route that Shen Chu and his companions were walking, Goudan felt that it looked more and more familiar, until he saw the dilapidated building in the distance and finally determined where it was.

His voice was filled with surprise. "Sister, are you here to see Grandpa Lin?"

When mentioning this Grandpa Lin, Goudan's eyes lit up. Just from these words, one can tell that he has a very good relationship with the so-called Grandpa Lin.

Shen Chu was a little surprised when he heard this. He looked at Goudan with surprise in his eyes and asked, "Do you know this old man?"

Isn't this a coincidence?

Looking at Goudan's excited expression, he seemed unusually mature.

If this is really the case, then it would be effortless.

It was simply God helping her.

Goudan nodded, his voice a little calmer. "Grandpa Lin is a very good person. Although he lives very frugally, he still shares his food with us."

As he said this, a look of shame appeared on his face.

However, my gratitude towards Grandpa Lin has not changed at all.

When Shen Chu heard this, his eyes widened slightly, a little bit incredulous.

What did she hear?

Is this skilled old craftsman extremely frugal in his daily life?

When Shen Chu first saw this dilapidated building, she thought she had taken the wrong path. But now it seems that she was not wrong, but she had misunderstood Mr. Lin.

Although the other party has a lot of skills, he still lives in poverty.

Thinking about what Yun Shu said just now, Shen Chu suddenly realized something.

Perhaps... a big part of the reason why Grandpa Lin is like this is because he hates officials and royal family members.

There are only so many rich people, and the vast majority are from official families. The rest have more or less had some contact with officials' families. With the other party's stubborn temper, I think he would not help those who have dealings with officials' families.

After such a screening, there are only a few people who can find him and afford him.

Shen Chu sighed, a hint of regret in his voice, "Is Grandpa Lin living here?"

Hearing her question, Goudan quickly answered her, "Yes, Grandpa Lin has always lived here. He likes it here very much. He has lived here since I knew him. I heard from my father that Grandpa Lin must have lived here for a long time."

When it comes to Grandpa Lin, Goudan can't help but talk more.

After hearing this, Shen Chu nodded slightly, with a thoughtful expression on his face. He didn't rush forward for a moment, but started to ask Goudan about the old man.

"God damn."

She suddenly called out Goudan's name.

This made Goudan feel refreshed. He immediately stood up straight and answered Shen Chu's words with full energy, "Sister, I'm here!"

The voice was very loud, as if he was afraid that Shen Chu couldn't see it.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Shen Chu's face. "Why are you so formal? I'm just asking you something casually."

Goudan had guessed this a long time ago, but after hearing Shen Chu say it, he still spoke seriously, "I know, sister."

Since Goudan was determined to do this, Shen Chu couldn't stop him. He could only let him do what he wanted and directly asked what he wanted to ask, "Goudan, do you know why Grandpa Lin hates people in the government?"

Shen Chu's voice was very soft. When she said this, she squatted down, her eyes level with Goudan's, and stared at him with her amber eyes, trying to see something from Goudan's eyes.

The moment their eyes met, Shen Chu saw Goudan avoiding his gaze.

He didn't want to answer the question.

This was the news Shen Chu received immediately.

Just when she thought Goudan wouldn't answer, Shen Chu heard Goudan whisper, "Sister, will you hurt Grandpa Lin?"
