Neither Shen Xingluo nor Cheng Xi expected that Master Du's guests would be them.
It has been a month since Fu Cheng and Mr. Jiang entered the city. There was already a lot going on in Fucheng, and with Qingshan Village and the sudden cold snap, they must have been so busy these days.
Surprised only for a moment, Chen Xingluo saluted the three of them after entering the door.
"Fifth prince, Mr. Jiang, sir, you three are well."
Cheng Xi retracted his gaze from Du Fuzi without any trace, stood to one side and leaned over slightly.
"Zijing, your face..."
Master Du shook the tea cup in his hand and half a cup spilled out, which was enough to show his shock.
Chen Xingluo's expression moved slightly, "I'm sorry, sir, I'm sorry that the student is fine. I have to thank the fifth prince for the medicine he gave me a few days ago."
"Young Master Shen, there is no need to say thank you. The medicine was originally meant to thank you for your help to the teacher. Furthermore, if Mr. Shen did not have people with superb medical skills around him, it would not be effective so quickly."
Fu Cheng was a little less sharp today, "Mrs. Shen, we meet again."
"The fifth prince."
Cheng Xi looked straight at her without avoiding it. Jiang Lao had seen her killing enemies a long time ago and still couldn't help but cast admiring glances at her, while Du Fuzi was more surprised.
"Is this Zi Jing's wife?"
"Mr. Hui, it is indeed Zhuo Jing."
"Okay, okay, sit down, sit down!"
Cheng Xi thought it would be better for her not to sit down. She always felt that this situation was strange. If only Du Fuzi was there, it would make sense for her to follow Shen Xingluo to visit her mentor, but...
Why do you look at these three people talking about political affairs?
Chen Xingluo calmly pulled her to sit next to Master Du, and placed the wine jar aside casually, but this action successfully attracted Fu Cheng's attention.
"Is this the cherry wine brewed by Mrs. Shen?"
"Exactly."
Fu Cheng's eyes were a little brighter, but soon turned into regret.
This wine is not for him. He is also a guest at Huaiyuan Academy, so even if he wants to try it, he cannot ask the host.
However, Master Du had already developed a pair of discerning eyes when he lived to this age, and he became interested in the seemingly ordinary wine.
"It seems that I received a generous gift today?"
"Brew it at home, sir, don't dislike it."
"Zijing is so lucky."
Master Du looked at Cheng Xi and laughed again, "Originally, I was thinking about letting you find a job in the academy, but I was overly worried."

Now that his injury has healed and he has a good wife(?) at home, he may be able to skyrocket in the future.
Hearing this, Cheng Xi remembered the letter of recommendation in the study room at home and secretly thought that Master Du was really satisfied with this student.
If Chen Xingluo still had the scar on his face, he would not be able to be an official in Dayan, not even a government official or a record-keeping official. His reputation would be of no use except for tax exemptions.
Master Du obviously thought of this and wrote a letter recommending him to stay in the academy library. This job was enough to support his family.
Now that his most valued student is fine, this gentleman can be said to be extremely happy.
"Thank you sir for your kindness. If you have nothing to repay, you will live up to your expectations."
"Prepare well for the exam and don't be careless."
"Students take note."
Master Du is worthy of being the vice-president of Huaiyuan Academy. Even with the female student Cheng Xi present, he did not forget to take care of her with the other three people while chatting, and the scene was very harmonious.
When a girl came over, Cheng Xi, who had been sitting for a quarter of an hour, got up and followed her to the backyard.
