Gujin Live: You don’t want me, you deserve to cry to death

Xu Hao dragged Cheng Yinshu and hid behind a big pine tree.

"Go and find out where Principal Zhang is?" Xu Jia's pleasant voice was filled with resentment.

"Yes."

Several servants took the order and Xu Jia returned to the meditation room.

"What does this woman want to do with Principal Zhang?" Cheng Yinshu frowned.

Xu Hao looked at Cheng Yinshu's expression and couldn't help asking, "Third brother, don't you like her?"

"I don't like her. She's petty, pretentious, and cunning." Cheng Yinshu suddenly looked at Xu Hao, "Sister, stay away from women like her. They're always calculating."

Cheng Yinshu was afraid that Xu Hao hadn't understood, so he emphasized, "Did you remember, sister?"

"I remember." Xu Hao said obediently.

For the first time, someone chose her between her and Xu Jia.

Xu Hao thought that he didn't care anymore, but how could the hurt he had suffered be so easily erased?

"Thank you, Third Brother."

"Sister, there are some good ladies in the capital, but most of them are extremely arrogant and scheming." Cheng Yinshu was flattered when Xu Hao called her "Third Brother" twice, but she was worried about Xu Hao and warned her, "You are too innocent and kind. Just follow your brother and don't play with them."

As they were talking, Xu Jia came out again.

This time, Xu Jia's complexion looked much better and he became much gentler.

A different person from before.

The way she looked seemed to confirm what Cheng Yinshu said.

Xu Hao didn't bother to complain about Cheng Yinshu, the fat boy, who was young but knew a lot. He dragged Cheng Yinshu away and said, "Third brother, let's go somewhere else. If you see Zhang Shanzhang, tell him."

"it is good."

Shi Huaying still had some time left, and Xu Hao wanted to turn around, so Cheng Yinshu naturally agreed.

Xu Jia glanced towards Xu Hao, his eyes filled with confusion: "Why does that figure look so much like Xu Hao?"

"Miss, what did you say about Xu Jia?" Bai Lu didn't hear clearly what Xu Jia said.

"It's okay. There's no way Xu Hao'e would appear here, let alone be dressed like that."

Xu Jia's lips curled slightly. Xu Hao should be crying at this time.

She has been busy lately and hasn't had time to ask.

Since she was here, she had to burn incense, otherwise it would seem like she had ulterior motives.

Xu Hao walked around aimlessly. The two of them went out from the side door of the backyard and saw a bamboo forest.

"Bamboo forest?" Xu Hao was surprised. Some of the leaves had fallen off, and the bamboo forest was emerald green.

She had never been here in her previous life.

[Nüe, the microclimate here is good, so bamboo can grow.]

While the barrage was explaining, Cheng Yinshu also explained: "Sister, you don't understand this. Yunju Temple is extremely spiritual. There are no bamboos anywhere north of Dayan, only here."

Cheng Yinshu looked so proud, as if the bamboo belonged to his home.

"Wow, that's amazing." Xu Hao held back his laughter and applauded.

"Hey, Cheng family kid?" It was Zhang Keyong's voice. "Come in, come in."

I actually met Zhang Keyong here.

Xu Hao doesn't want to go. Since Zhang Keyong is here, will Xu Jia also show up?

Zhang Keyong has his own principles, and he will naturally deal with whatever Xu Jia asks for.

If I were recognized—

Cheng Yinshu didn't know about Xu Hao's troubles. He was actually a little afraid of Zhang Keyong, but he wanted to show it, so he pulled Xu Hao inside.

In the bamboo forest, there is a stone table. Zhang Keyong and an old monk are playing Go, and three old men in long robes are watching.

After Xu Hao and Cheng Yinshu exchanged greetings, they stood aside and watched quietly.

Cheng Yinshu should know how to play chess, but Xu Hao doesn't.

In her previous life, she mostly learned about etiquette, female rules and female labor, and knew a few words. As for elegant things like music, chess, calligraphy and painting, only Xu Jia was qualified to learn them.

When Xu Hao and Cheng Yinshu arrived, the chess game was already coming to an end.

After waiting for a while, Zhang Ke pushed the chess piece and said with a smile, "I lost."

The old monk said, "You have something on your mind."

The other three also noticed it.

"Yuanzheng (Zhang Keyong's pen name), we know what you're worried about, but there are some things beyond your and my control."

Zhang Keyong smiled and pointed at Cheng Yinshu: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Do you know who this is?"

After asking, he and Cheng Yinshu and Xu Hao introduced them in turn: "This is Master Kongchen, and these are Liu Ji, Xiao Wei, and Tao Wenshan."

Cheng Yinshu and Xu Hao hurriedly greeted him: "Greetings, Master, and the three gentlemen."

Just as Zhang Keyong was about to mention Cheng Yinshu, a young girl's sweet and gentle voice came from outside the bamboo forest: "Xu Jia, the daughter of Xu Yan from Yangling Marquis's Mansion, wishes to see you gentlemen. I heard that you gentlemen are playing chess here. I love chess and am sorry to bother you."

"Yangling Marquis' Mansion?" Liu Ji frowned.

"I think you are here for Yuanzheng." Tao Wenshan gave a mischievous smile.

Xu Hao felt the same as the commenters: [She’s coming, she’s coming, bringing her tea.]

Zhang Keyong raised his voice and said, "Come here."

Xu Jia came over with Bai Lu Nianiao and Nana, and Xu Hao hid behind Cheng Yinshu.

"Miss Xu, our game is over," Zhang Keyong said politely and distantly, "We'll have another chance."

This means they are chasing people away. Xu Jia's body stiffened and the smile on her face almost couldn't be suppressed.

Especially when he saw a woman with a similar body shape to Xu Hao.

Xu Jia couldn't help but wonder, could this be Xu Hao? Xu Hao saved Zhang Keyong.

Then she remembered that she seemed to have seen this woman at the foot of the mountain. How could they save Zhang Keyong if they were behind her?

No, we can't go like this.

Xu Jia cursed inwardly and knelt down to salute, "Headmaster Zhang, my second brother is both talented and virtuous. I have admired you for a long time. Could you please give me some advice? I would be very grateful."

"I have been feeling unwell recently, so you should find someone else." Zhang Keyong said.

Xu Hao looked at it and felt refreshed.

Without her, Xu Hao, could Xu Mingyi once again pass the imperial examination and become the supreme master, Lord Xu?

Xu Hao had no doubt whether Xu Mingyi could pass the exam, it was just a matter of ranking.

Xu Jia took a deep breath, looked up at Zhang Keyong and asked, "What will it take for Principal Zhang to agree?"

"Since you've come here, you should know that I haven't tested anyone before," Zhang Keyong said patiently. "Go back and ask your brother to find someone else."

"As the principal of Shangxing Academy, shouldn't you cherish every student seeking knowledge?" Xu Jia stood up and argued confidently, "If every teacher is like this, where will the talents of Dayan be?"

Xu Hao followed the barrage of comments and said, "This is a good play on moral kidnapping."

"No matter what Miss Xu says, I will not change my mind." Zhang Keyong is responsible for the disciples of Shangxing Academy, but he disdains to explain to a little girl like Xu Jia.

"Then why can he do it?" Xu Jia pointed at Cheng Yinshu.

Cheng Yinshu was stunned. What does this have to do with him?

This annoying woman is indeed like this. Fortunately, my sister listened to her and knew to hide.

"Miss Xu," Cheng Yinshu said, "don't misunderstand me. I'm not a disciple of Master Zhang. My family has a long history with Master Zhang, so I've come to pay my respects."

Xu Jia refused to give up, as it concerned her future.

Zhang Keyong suddenly said, "Miss Xu, you can let me test you, unless you can beat me in chess."
