Looking at this large table of sumptuous dishes, everyone was at a loss for what to eat, because each dish looked especially delicious.

Upon seeing this, Su Yun took the lead and picked up a piece of steamed eight-treasure duck to eat.

He glanced at everyone and nodded slightly, then smiled and said, "This steamed eight-treasure duck is really delicious; the duck meat is tender but not greasy!"

After hearing this, everyone looked at Su Yun Chu and picked up the steamed eight-treasure duck that Su Yun Chu had mentioned and started eating it. With each bite, they were filled with the fragrance of duck meat, mixed with the soft and sweet taste of glutinous rice.

Everyone tried every different dish, and each one was just right, retaining the original flavor of the dish while also having other unique tastes.

After everyone had a hearty meal, Su Yun Chu took them to see a street acrobatic performance, which was a real visual treat.

After watching the acrobatic performance, Su Yun Chu led everyone back to the military camp. "Xiao Fan, Xiao Yu, you should go back and rest. You've worked hard today!"

After hearing this, Xiao Fan and Xiao Yu looked at Su Yun Chu and shook their heads slightly. "Miss, that's not true. It's not hard work for you. Besides, didn't you treat us to a delicious meal and take us to see a circus performance?"

After Xiao Fan and Xiao Yu finished speaking, they gave Su Yun Chu a slight bow and left the courtyard where Su Yun Chu and Xi Er were.

The two walked side by side, attracting the attention of passing soldiers and maids, some of whom even whispered about their relationship.

Seeing this, Xiaoyu quickly and somewhat embarrassedly distanced herself from Xiaofan, and looked around to see if the person was there.

Seeing that the person was nowhere to be seen, she breathed a sigh of relief.

What she didn't know was that as the two of them walked over, Xiao He had already arrived and happened to be hiding in the shadows and saw what was happening.

After Xiao Fan and Xiao Yu walked away, Xiao He emerged from the shadows and looked at their backs. He wondered what was going on and why the two of them were together.

Xiao Fan escorted Xiao Yu to the door of her room, waved slightly, and gestured for her to go in first. "Xiao Yu, get some rest!"

After hearing this, Xiaoyu looked at Xiaofan, smiled and nodded, then waved slightly at him, "Xiaofan, you should get some rest too!"

After Xiaoyu finished speaking, she gently pushed open the door and slowly walked in. Seeing this, Xiaofan glanced in the direction of Xiaoyu's room door and then slowly left.

Shortly after Xiao Fan left, Xiao He also arrived at Xiao Yu's room door and gently knocked on the door, making a series of "knock knock knock" sounds.

At this moment, Xiaoyu's slightly puzzled voice came from inside the room, "Xiaofan, why haven't you left yet? Is something the matter?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao He outside the door immediately showed a sad expression. Xiao Yu had mistaken him for Xiao Fan. "Xiao Yu, it's me,"

"May I come in for a moment? If it's inconvenient, I'll leave now." After saying this, Xiao He listened quietly to the sounds coming from inside.

However, there was no sound coming from inside for a long time.

Seeing this, Xiao He prepared to leave. Just then, the door was slowly opened from the inside, and Xiao Yu peeked out slightly.

Upon seeing Xiao He's arrival, Xiao Yu felt a surge of joy, but she didn't show it on her face. "Xiao He, it's you! Come in and let's talk!"

After hearing this, Xiao He looked at Xiao Yu and asked somewhat shyly, "Xiao Yu, is it really convenient for me to come in?"

After hearing this, Xiaoyu looked at Xiaohe, smiled slightly and nodded, and said in a low voice, "Xiaohe, of course, there's nothing inconvenient about it!"

After hearing this, Xiao He gave Xiao Yu a deep look, then slowly followed her into the room, glancing around at her surroundings.

The room contained only a bed, a dressing table, an old-looking table, and a few chairs.

Xiaoyu quickly invited Xiaohe to sit down, personally brewed him a cup of tea, and exchanged a few pleasantries with him.

Xiao He finally asked the question he most wanted to know, "Xiao Yu, can you tell me what kind of relationship you have with Brother Xiao Fan?"

After hearing this, Xiaoyu looked at Xiaohe and after a long while, she finally spoke, "Xiaohe, Xiaofan and I are just friends, just like you and I are!"

After hearing this, Xiao He looked at Xiao Yu and couldn't help but think to himself, "Are we really just friends? Why do I feel so heartbroken?"

But then, he nodded to Xiaoyu without changing his expression, forcing a smile, "Xiaoyu, I understand, thank you!"

After finishing his sentence, Xiao He looked at Xiao Yu intently, then left without looking back.

Seeing this, Xiaoyu watched Xiaohe's silent departure, her heart unable to calm down for a long time. "Did I say something wrong just now?"

Xiaoyu thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, so she simply gave up on thinking about it and decided to get a good night's sleep first, and deal with other things tomorrow!

The next morning, Su Yun Chu sent someone to invite Xiao Yu and the others to discuss the recruitment of embroiderers. "Sister Xiao Yu, Miss invites you to come and discuss the recruitment of embroiderers."

After hearing this, Xiaoyu looked at the person Su Yun Chu had sent, nodded respectfully, and followed the person to Su Yun Chu's courtyard.

At this moment, Su Yun Chu was sitting in the main seat, while Xi Er arranged for everyone to take their seats.

After everyone was seated, Su Yun Chu slowly stood up, walked to the front of the group, and began to speak softly.

"I've called you all here to discuss the recruitment of embroiderers. I hope you'll feel free to express your opinions!"

After hearing this, everyone looked at Su Yun Chu and were immediately filled with disbelief. They never expected that the noble Doctor Su would humbly listen to the opinions of them, such uncouth people.

"Dr. Su, but our opinions might differ from yours!" someone in the crowd blurted out.

"If it's different, will you take our opinion into consideration?" After saying that, the man looked at Su Yun Chu and quietly watched her reaction.

After hearing this, Su Yun looked at the person who spoke, then at the crowd, and slowly began to speak.

"It's precisely because my opinions differ from yours that I need to listen to your different perspectives. I will also adopt your good opinions!"

After hearing this, everyone looked at Su Yun Chu and nodded slightly in approval. "Yes, yes, Dr. Su, we will definitely tell you everything we know."

Then, everyone started talking at once. Some suggested holding an embroidery competition, some suggested finding embroiderers directly from tailor shops, and others suggested finding some women who knew basic needlework.
