The all-round coser bravely challenges the female supremacy!

This day was the day when Magistrate Xu called Su Yu to his house for a chat.

Xu Junlan looked at her son who was diligently pouring tea for Su Yu, and she felt very jealous. The treatment that used to be exclusive to her and her husband, now Su Yu was treated better than her!

"Have you not fallen behind in your studies these days?"

Su Yu was originally looking at Xu Jiuyue politely pouring tea for her. When she heard Xu Junlan calling her, she looked over and saw the jealousy on Xu Junlan's face, which was not hidden at all.

Su Yu replied without changing his expression,

"No, I've been going to my master's house every day to hand in my homework. Aunt Xu, don't worry."

When Xu Jiyue heard this, she felt heartbroken.

"The academy is on vacation, but you're still working so hard. You must be exhausted."

Xu Jiuyue said this, turned around and complained to her mother,

"Mother! Su Yu works so hard every day, and you still call her over? Can't you go to Jin Mansion if you have something to do?"

Xu Junlan was so angry at Xu Jiuyue that he laughed.

"I'm an elder, and I have to go to her house to find her when I need her help? Xu Jiuyue, what are you thinking about? Is it all about Su Yu?"

When Xu Jiuyue heard this, she looked at Su Yu cautiously and said angrily,

"Mother! What are you talking about!"

Xu Junlan's mouth twitched as he looked at his son's boyish appearance. It was really hard to keep a son when he grew up!

"See, Su Yu, you have to hurry up and pass the exam. Our Ji Yue can't wait any longer."

No matter how open-minded Xu Jiyue was, she felt embarrassed when she heard her mother teasing her and her lover again and again.

"I'm going to find my dad. I won't bother with you anymore!"

Xu Jiuyue stood up, glared at Xu Junlan, and ran out.

Su Yu looked at Xu Jiuyue running away, feeling quite surprised. She didn't expect that he would be so thin-skinned in front of his elders, which was different from how he was in front of her.

Xu Junlan looked at the way Su Yu looked at his son, and he felt quite satisfied.

Su Yu still has feelings for her son. I heard from her subordinates that their relationship seems to be progressing quite well, so the marriage process needs to be accelerated!

"Su Yu, did Teacher Gu tell you when you'll be allowed to take the exam?"

When Su Yu heard this, she knew that Xu Junlan was not only urging her to end her life, but also urging her to get married.

"Master and I plan to give it a try next year."

Xu Junlan nearly dropped the teacup he was holding when he heard this. How long had it been since Su Yu could take the imperial examination?!

Even if she is very talented, isn't this a bit too fast?

"I know you want to pass the imperial examination quickly so you can marry Jiyue, but you also need to be cautious and not lose the big picture for the sake of small things!"

Su Yu is very talented in studying, and now everyone praises her. Xu Junlan is afraid that she will become too proud and fail the exam, which will cause her to be devastated and unable to recover. That would be a waste of time!

"You have such a good talent for studying. Don't worry. Just take it slow and steady. You will definitely pass the exam!"

Su Yu was a little surprised that Xu Junlan could say this. She thought Xu Junlan always hoped that she could marry Xu Jiuyue as soon as possible.

When she first told her master that she was going to take the exam next year, if her master had not known her homework so well, he would probably have advised her against it immediately.

"Aunt Xu, this is a decision made by my master and me. You don't trust me, but you also trust my master. Also, have you forgotten that I come from a merchant family?"

Xu Junlan was shocked. That's right! Su Yu is a businessman. How can a businessman do something uncertain? Not to mention Master Gu!

After figuring out the key points, Xu Junlan sighed, "I'm obsessed."

"Aunt Xu advises me because she cares about me." Su Yu said with a smile.

Xu Junlan looked at Su Yu's aura and felt that she should move up. Her current status was too low for her and was not worthy of her.

"The matter of the sweet potatoes from Xiguo Village has been sorted out. I have reported it to His Majesty. A large quantity of sweet potatoes is still on its way to the capital."

Xu Junlan stood up and walked to Su Yu.

"You have already made a name for yourself in front of the Emperor. If you rank very well in the exam..."

Xu Junlan patted Su Yu's shoulder, saying everything.

"Let's go and have a meal."

……

Time flies, and the New Year is approaching. There is a busy atmosphere inside and outside the Jin Mansion.

Yichuan stood by the study window and took a small piece of paper from the feet of a pigeon.

Su Yu put down the carving knife in his hand and looked at Yichuan.

"A letter from the villa?"

Yichuan released the carrier pigeon, walked to the table and handed the small note to Su Yu.

"Well, sister missed us and asked when we would return to the villa."

Su Yu felt relieved after reading the letter. There were many trivial matters at the end of the year, but as long as there were no accidents, it would be fine.

"Then let's go to the villa on the second or third day of the New Year."

After such a long time, Su Yu had almost forgotten what Sister Yichuan looked like. After all, they had only met once.

However, she vaguely remembered that this sister had a bad temper, but she was quite nice to Achuan.

Yichuan was a little excited.

"Then I'll write back to my sister soon. She'll be very happy to hear it!"

He hadn't been back for a long time, and this time he was going back with his wife, so he couldn't help but feel excited!

While Yichuan was excited, he did not forget the task that Su Yu had assigned him. He picked up the carving knife on the table and continued to carve the small piece of wood.

Looking at the many small wooden blocks carved with various patterns on the table, I was a little puzzled.

"Wife, is this mahjong really fun? It requires so many carved pieces of wood. Will it be difficult to play?"

Hearing Yichuan's doubts, Su Yu decisively refuted,

"No, I'll teach you how to play it when we're on vigil on New Year's Eve. It's very simple and fun!"

That's Mahjong, the quintessence of Chinese culture! How could it not be fun?

……

After Laba Festival, Teacher Gu no longer assigned homework to Su Yu, but only reminded her not to forget to read occasionally.

Su Yu was naturally very happy when she heard the news. She had studied hard for several months and now she could finally take a break for some time.

The entire Jin Mansion was filled with a lively New Year atmosphere. An Xun was now in charge of the internal affairs of the two mansions and was unable to get away.

In addition to some trivial business matters, even Jin Xuerong, who usually did nothing but eat, drink and have fun, was pulled in by An Xun to arrange tasks for the New Year.

Now that Su Yu was free, An Xun thought that she had been quite busy recently, so he assigned Su Yu an easy task, which was to buy fireworks.

Su Yu was not good at buying fireworks. She didn't know how good the fireworks here were, nor did she know what kind of fireworks to buy. However, Luo Heng said he knew.

Su Yu looked at Luo Heng's smiling face, and suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck. She inexplicably thought of the scene where Luo Heng blew up her with firecrackers.

Even though I knew it was impossible, I still shuddered when I saw his malicious smile.

"Then...will you come with me?"

Although Luo Heng didn't know what Su Yu was afraid of at the moment, he was naturally very happy when he heard Su Yu agreed to take him out.

"go!"

This was one of the few opportunities he had to travel alone with Su Yu! How could he let it go so easily?
