Shu Yu nodded. “Yes, but we still feel that Shuxian Academy is most suitable for Dahu.”
Liu Shi was a smart person. Although Shu Yu did not say it clearly, Liu Shi immediately understood the meaning behind her words.
What Shu Yu meant was that if she wanted her younger brother to study in another school, she would not have chosen Shuxian Academy, which might have problems, from the beginning.
Even if something really happened to the Wen family, she might not choose another school, so there was no need to consider whether the other party would accept her.
No matter what, Madam Liu was happy that her husband could receive such affirmation.
These days, there were too many people who poured cold water on the Wen family, so much so that Madam Liu was unwilling to go out.
She didn’t expect to hear such a loaded evaluation from a little girl.
Madam Liu was in a good mood. She stood up and said, “All right, based on your words, I will accept Lu Dahu on behalf of my husband.”
Dahu was slightly excited and wanted to bow and formally greet Madam Liu.
Madam Liu held him up and said, “There’s no need to rush. My husband will only be your master after the formal ceremony.”
Shu Yu smiled and said, “Thank you, Mrs. Wen. We’ll go back and prepare the apprenticeship gift now. We’ll visit again tomorrow.”
Madam Liu nodded. “No problem.”
After the matter was settled, Shu Yu planned to leave with Dahu.
Lu Sanzhu didn’t say a word the entire time. He had been eating his snacks. Needless to say, the desserts in a scholar’s place were indeed delicious. He did not know how they were made.
Lu Sanzhu had finished a plate and was waiting for the servants of the Wen family to bring another plate. He did not expect Shu Yu to leave.
He subconsciously stood up and asked) “Are you leaving already? Haven’t we not seen the master’s face? Isn’t it not good to go back like this?”
Shu Yu rubbed her forehead. Lu Sanzhu had been so focused on eating that he didn’t hear a single word.
Shu Yu felt that she had made the wrong decision to bring Lu Sanzhu over.
Fortunately, Madam Liu was a kind person. She smiled when she heard that and said, “My husband has gone out. I’m afraid he won’t come back until night.”
She suddenly paused and looked at the confused Dahu, suggesting, “However, if you want to see him, you can go and take a look. Today, he invited a few of his good friends to recite poems and discuss knowledge. Since Dahu wants to enter the school, there’s no harm in him going to take a look.”
Shu Yu was stunned. “Can we go? Wouldn’t this disturb Master Wen?”
“No, they just agreed to go to the peach blossom forest in the south of the city. It’s not some secret place. From time to time, there would be scholars, sirs, and ladies who would go sightseeing or hold poetry gatherings. The scenery is exquisite. Why not go and take a look together?”
The peach blossom forest in the south of the city?
Shu Yu had never been there before, but she had heard someone mention it. However, Shu Yu had always been busy and did not have the time to wander around, let alone know about it in detail.
Now that Dahu was about to enter school, he would naturally come into contact with the places that scholars often went to in the future. There was nothing wrong with going to take a look in advance.
Shu Yu nodded. “Then… I’ll have to trouble you to lead the way.”
“Let’s go.”
Lu Sanzhu watched as the three of them walked out of the room, staring blankly at the empty plate of pastries.
That was not how he intended things to turn out.
He just wanted to eat something quietly. It didn’t matter if he ate until Master Wen came back in the evening, really..
