Chapter 612: Chapter 612: Creating Nuisance Persistently
“Lord Clan Leader, please don’t overly humble yourself before Sisi. You are her elder, it’s not right.”
Liu Sisi quickly helped the clan leader stand and guided him back to his chair to sit down.
The clan leader was filled with joy: “The Liu Family has not many talents, but there are plenty of scholars. As of now, we have four individuals who have passed the examinations for Cultivated Talent, and even more have become qualified students…It’s rare for grandniece to be willing to do these things for the Liu Family. On behalf of the Liu Family, I want to express our gratitude to you!” He made several formal bows towards Liu Sisi, and the clan elder at his side also had a delighted expression.
Liu Sisi quickly returned the bow and hurriedly said: “Lord Clan Leader, please don’t overly humble yourself before me. However, I must speak a harsh truth before we proceed. My husband has said that the academy will certainly want to recruit teachers, and will conduct a preliminary assessment. Moreover, the admission of students also requires examination.”
“Ah, of course, when the time comes, whatever the rules of the academy are, we, the Liu Family, will follow them accordingly. Yours truly understands these things, I do!” The clan leader nodded repeatedly.
Liu Sisi also relaxed. It was good that he agreed, and when the time came, if the examination was not passed, she wouldn’t be blamed for turning her face.
“However, I can arrange for the Liu Family to have several candidate spots, even the student quota, I can allocate a portion to the Liu Family. But, I also have a condition!”
The clan leader and the clan elder glanced at each other, and simultaneously asked, “What is the condition?”
…
Meanwhile, in the kitchen of the Liu Family, Liu Zhi’er was busy in front of the stove with Da Mao helping Ms. Yao.
There was a lot of leftover soup and other foods from lunch. Ms. Yao quickly stir-fried a few small dishes and steamed a little more rice— after all, the maids and women-servants who came with Liu Sisi also had to eat.
“Zhi’er, Sisi seems to have changed a lot recently. What happened?”
For Ms. Yao, Sisi was only married away a little over a year ago, just like the blink of an eye, how could she have changed so much?
“What happened? Mom, you are just filtering it out.”
Liu Zhi’er, having a moment to look up at Ms. Yao, said, “After all, she is a phoenix. Even if you pluck her feathers and put her among chickens, a phoenix is still a phoenix. Can the inherent pride in her be the same as ours?”
“This… can it be so?” Ms. Yao murmured.
However, a grand and unparalleled figure rose in her mind, who, with a turn and a smile, was so breathtakingly graceful and pure!
And standing beside her, she felt like green leaves by the side of a red flower, merely serving as a contrast!
“Mom, don’t treat her like the Sisi from the past anymore! Especially with big brother, it’d be best if you could advise him not to deliberately provoke Sisi. Sisi doesn’t owe him anything. On the contrary, what he owes Sisi cannot be repaid. If things continue like this, not even the Heavenly King will be able to protect him!”
Liu Zhi’er gave a solemn warning!
She knew that her father valued her big brother more than anyone else in the family!
But if he really upset her little sister, she felt that this time it probably wouldn’t end up so smoothly!
Meanwhile, Liu Xuer also came back to her senses from her memories: “When I first brought her home, she was very small, covered in blood, and staring at me with wide, bewildered eyes… I didn’t expect this!”
The topic was too heavy, causing everyone to fall silent.
When the rice was cooked, everyone brought the cooked dishes to the table.
The reason the dinner was served so early was to facilitate Liu Sisi and others leaving to return home. The mountain road was so long, it would take quite some time to travel.
