Traveling through time and space

"Miss, let me say it again, none of us touched you, and no one touched this girl. This young man can testify to this." Su Yuanyuan didn't want to argue any more and spoke to the lady below.

"Miss, Xiaomei, I won't lie. They must have knocked it off." A girl following the lady spoke.

"Since we must have broken the girl's body, let's not waste any more words with you. We will have our meal upstairs. Dongmei, go to the prefectural government office and report it." Su Yuanyuan went upstairs directly.

"Miss, go ahead. The master knows how much this bracelet means to you," the woman below continued.

"Okay, let's do it, buddy, lead the way," Su Yuanyuan pulled Xiaoyue'er who was about to go and argue.

"My lady, since you are willing to report it to the police, it means that you are sure that you did not encounter it. It is possible that I, your servant, was mistaken. I am very sorry for wasting your time."

"It's okay, Miss," Su Yuanyuan wanted to step forward and pick up the bracelet that was broken into two pieces.

"Miss, let's go. I'm afraid you're hungry." Xiaoyue pushed Su Yuanyuan. Forget it. Su Yuanyuan smiled at the girl down the stairs, and the group followed the waiter upstairs.

"An..." A person fell out from the side, and it was an acquaintance, Zhu Zhe.

"Yuanyuan greets Master Zhu." Before he could say anything, Su Yuanyuan stopped him, "Master Zhu, Yuanyuan is here to have dinner."

"Go, bring some delicious food here quickly. It's in this room," Master Zhu pointed to the room next door.

"Mr. Zhu, this has been booked." The waiter pointed to the room opposite.

"Okay, Mr. Zhu, let's go to the other side." Su Yuanyuan didn't care.

"Okay, whatever you want. Go and bring some good food over." Zhu Zhe ordered, "Hurry up and have someone serve good tea." Su Yuanyuan entered the house.

"You guys sit down too," Su Yuanyuan pointed to the seats next to her, asking Dongmei and the others to sit down as well. Tea and food servers filed in, and soon the table in front of them was full. "Xiaoyue'er, you guys eat." Su Yuanyuan looked carefully and saw there was no water for washing hands. "Hey, bring me a basin of clean, hot water so I can wash my hands." Su Yuanyuan had a habit of washing her hands before meals. The water was quickly brought over. Rumei stood up, wet her handkerchief, and asked Su Yuanyuan to wipe her hands. "Mr. Zhu, I think I've seen you here before. You're also the owner of Mingzhong Tower, right?"

"Yes, I heard that Princess Anle is also like that."

"Well, Mr. Zhu, how is the business now?" Su Yuanyuan asked while eating, "Who is the chef here?" The taste is 70% like her own.

"It's Wei Yinyou's turn here."

"That's not bad either." Seeing the table full of delicacies, Su Yuanyuan lost her appetite and put down her chopsticks. "Mr. Zhu, go take care of your own things and don't worry about this."

"Princess Anle, just tell them what you want to eat." Master Zhu was very polite.

"Okay, let's have pickled fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, Kung Pao chicken, and Mapo tofu. These are the four most basic dishes. Yuanyuan wants to see how they cook." Su Yuanyuan didn't hesitate to talk to him. This was her own restaurant after all, so of course she could evaluate the quality of the dishes.

Master Zhu stood at the door and told the waiter to do it, then came back and asked, "Princess Anle, are you dissatisfied with the food?"

"Mr. Zhu, stop calling me Princess. Just call me Yuanyuan from now on. You're my brother's friend, so don't be so polite." Su Yuanyuan really didn't care about the address. "You guys just sit here and eat. Don't follow me, Mr. Zhu. Yuanyuan wants to go to the kitchen to take a look."

"Miss, I will follow you." Mother Yan stood up, and the other three stood up as well.

"No need, just eat. I'll be back soon." Su Yuanyuan held Yan's mother down and didn't let them get up.

"Miss Yuanyuan, your skills as a servant are not good enough. In this capital, no servant would dare to dine with the master." Master Zhu reminded her after they left the house.

"Mr. Zhu, once or twice occasionally is fine." Su Yuanyuan smiled.

"Miss Yuanyuan, I heard that you and the Cai family had a falling out?"

"Did you have a falling out with the Cai family? But not with my elder brother and second brother." Su Yuanyuan answered. "Why are you here?" The man saluted her, and Su Yuanyuan stepped forward to support him, preventing him from saluting.

"Student greets Princess Anle..." The visitor wanted to bow.

"Brother, we're out here, there's no need for so much formality. Stand up and talk." Su Yuanyuan supported him and began to look at him. "Why are the dishes arranged so messily? There's no order at all. It makes people lose their appetite."

"I'm too busy to care about this. I can only serve the food as soon as it's ready." The cook didn't even glance at these people, it seemed that he was really busy. Su Yuanyuan shook her head and looked at her eldest brother and Master Zhu.

"Don't worry, Yuanyuan, we will make good arrangements and add more people as appropriate. There are many people here today, so let's go out and talk first." Master Zhu drove everyone out, and they went to another room. "You guys talk properly, I'll go out and take a look first." The awkward atmosphere in the room made Master Zhu get up and go out. The few people who stayed behind talked about the incident and were all in a good mood. The second brother was going back to the academy, and Yuanyuan gave him a ride. He heard on the car that Rongde Academy had beautiful scenery, so Su Yuanyuan wanted to see it in person. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he had a feeling that it was elegant and heavy. Although it was in the downtown area, it was quiet in the bustle and the scenery was beautiful. Looking around along the way, the courtyard was also ingenious.

The place was so beautiful and relaxing. They were enjoying the natural beauty, feeling relaxed and intoxicated. Their second brother was talking beside them, describing the flowers and grass along the way, the shady trees, the stone bridges, and the clear streams. "This academy is truly worthy of its reputation. It's a century-old academy. It's simple yet fresh, solemn yet lively. When I'm here, my heart is filled with peace and tranquility." Su Yuanyuan was intoxicated and fell in love with the place.

"Hey classmate, how can you bring a girl into the academy? And you're making such loud noises, it's really disrespectful," a scolding voice came up. When I looked up, I saw two people dressed like students.

"Senior Zhao, I just..." The second brother was a little speechless and didn't know what to say.

"This student, the honorary name of Rongde Academy..."

"Just because Rongde Academy has a good reputation, does that mean you can come and go as you please?" This person interrupted Su Yuanyuan again.

Dongmei stepped forward, and Su Yuanyuan shook her head. She didn't want to cause trouble here. After all, this academy was a solemn and quiet place. "This student, judging from your attire, you are also a student of this academy. How can you be so impolite? Putting aside the fact that my second brother is a scholar in the academy, what's wrong with him bringing his family to visit the academy? The tone of your speech is very unreasonable. You said my second brother was unbecoming, and I said you were disrespectful. But you are shouting here, so you are not unbecoming."

"I am also a scholar."

"You are a scholar, so you think you are so great that you can scold others at will. Who do you think you are?" Su Yuanyuan was a little unhappy.

"My father is..."

"Who your father is has nothing to do with me. This is a college, a place for teaching and educating people, not a place for comparison. No matter who your father is, you can't use your power to bully others here."

"Master Ge." It turned out to be Ge Congwen who came over. Su Yuanyuan raised her hand and didn't let him greet her, but Dongmei and Rumei, who followed him into the academy, greeted him.

"I didn't expect you to be so eloquent. Whose girl are you from? I've never heard of Cai Shaocun having such a beautiful sister."
