1045: Ungrateful

Ungrateful

Even Zhao Xuanjing thought Xie Qiao was lucky.2

Their teacher had already given such an obvious hint, but the junior brothers had not realized it yet.

It was fortunate that Xie Qiao did not meet many people, so she was easily overlooked.

Although she had stayed in the academy for a while, after such a long time, even Xiao Yurong did not think of her for a while. Otherwise, when he recalled that the two of them were both weak and what Xie Pinghuai said just now…

He should have realized the truth.

Unfortunately, Xie Qiao had escaped another disaster. Now that they knew that eldest sister was Master Yun Wei, they were already so excited. If they knew her real identity, they would probably kill themselves from the embarrassment.

At this moment, Sang You and Jiang Jinlu were completely convinced by their eldest sister.

They used to think that she was very powerful when they heard their teacher's praise. However, after they met, she was reserved and did not say much. They could not see the depth of her ability. They only felt that their teacher loved her more and that her ability was a little exaggerated.

However, now…

Even Jiang Jinlu felt that all his bad guesses about his eldest senior sister were him being ungrateful…

When they finished looking at the painting and wanted to worship their eldest senior sister in person, they realized that she had already left.

The three of them were a little embarrassed.

They were so engrossed in looking at the painting that they forgot that Yun Wei was beside them.

"Where is Eldest Senior Sister..." Xiao Yurong felt his heartbeat had returned to normal.

He really... could not let go of such a powerful eldest senior sister!

There was a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

"Maybe it was because you looked at the painting so unsightly that you drooled and stared blankly at it. It was so scary that she couldn't help but run away," Zhao Xuanjing said slowly.

Xiao Yurong rubbed his chin subconsciously and felt a little annoyed.

It was a pity that he had looked at the painting first and did not say anything to his eldest senior sister!

Sang You took out a small bronze mirror from his pocket and looked at his face in disbelief.

He would never show such an ugly expression…

"I did not expect Eldest Senior Sister to be so good at painting. The landscape painting is really good. I think I will think about it carefully when I go back. I will write a poem to be stamped on the painting..." 

Before he could finish his sentence, Zhao Xuanjing asked, "Did Eldest Senior Sister agree to that?" 

 Xiao Yurong's heart sank.

She did not.

"Let's wait for her to say yes. Perhaps she intends to sell the painting," Zhao Xuanjing added.

It all depended on who paid more money.

Xiao Yurong sighed. He really hoped that he could paint with his senior sister. Even if it was not painting, it would be great to do other things. Playing the zither, playing the flute, climbing the mountains and and following the stream. Even if it was to help senior sister lead the horse, it would definitely be great…

His face was slightly red.

At this moment, Xie Qiao was strolling elsewhere with Xie Pinghuai when she ran into Young Lady Zhou.

Of course, it was not only Young Lady Zhou. There were also other people from the three academies. They should be holding a poetry meet here. It was quite lively.

Xie Qiao knew many people from the Royal Academy, but most of them were women. Those women were the same age as her. They were also preparing for marriage. She had left the academy for a few months and most of their marriages had been decided.

She had received many letters after returning from Mengjiabao.

She also learned that her good friends in the academy were all staying home waiting to be married and were not going to the academy anymore.

For instance, Fang Muxue had decided to marry the second son of a wealthy family. Although he was the second son, his talent was not bad and he had a bright future.

As for Qin Liu, she said that she had decided to marry the family of a martial general and was also the descendant of a distinguished family.

They had promised earlier that they would get together again when she was in better health, but she had been busy since she came back. They have not had the chance to meet yet.
