Chapter 270 The sister of the control group in the imperial examination
Yuan Feng's mouth corners lifted unconsciously, and his eyebrows curved into crescent shapes.
His joy was beyond words, and anyone could see that he was in a very good mood at the moment.
At this moment, a slightly plump scholar walking out from a distance happened to see this scene.
His eyes were wide open, as if his eyeballs were about to fall out.
Wu Zhichen often saw the teacher praising Yuan Feng, his favorite student.
Even so, Yuan Feng always kept a calm expression when facing the teacher's praise. I have never seen him smile so happily as he did today.
After Wu Zhichen hurriedly said a few words to the servants at home, he immediately turned around and ran towards the yard.
Hey! Wouldn't it be too boring if I were the only one surprised by such a rare sight?
Of course, you have to share it with other classmates as soon as possible!
When Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei finished greeting each other and turned to leave, they noticed several classmates gathered not far away, discussing something enthusiastically.
If you ignore the glances they cast at you from time to time, it really looks like a picture of students concentrating on studying.
Yuan Feng's face was as calm as water, and he took steady and determined steps forward.
Wu Zhichen, who was standing by, watched Yuan Feng about to walk away from them.
He really couldn't suppress the impulse in his heart, and involuntarily stretched out his hand to stop him.
Wu Zhichen asked loudly, "Brother Yuan, were those people just now your family members?"
Yuan Feng nodded slightly and replied, "That's right."
Hearing this, everyone suddenly understood.
I see. I was thinking it would be a lover's younger sister or something like that.
At this time, Wu Zhichen's eyes were fixed on the package that Yuan Feng was holding tightly in his hand.
"What treasure did our sister bring you?"
His eyes never left the package.
If it weren't for the good education he had received over the years, he would have been unable to hold back and would have reached out to grab it and take a look.
It was just because the tempting fragrance kept entering his nose, making him feel itchy.
Anything with such a charming aroma must be a rare delicacy.
Wu Zhichen has no hobbies in his life except for food.
Yuan Feng looked at his pitiful and eager look and couldn't help laughing.
He smiled and said, "It's just some food. It happens to be noon now. If you don't mind, why not enjoy it together?"
Before he finished speaking, Wu Zhichen couldn't wait to respond loudly: "Great! Great!"
Then, he grabbed Yuan Feng and hurried into the school.
Seeing this, the others were also delighted and followed closely behind.
At this moment, everyone seemed extremely familiar with each other, as if they were close friends.
For the first time, Yuan Feng realized that the delicious food made by his sister could actually help him strengthen his relationship with his classmates.
This is really a pleasant surprise!

"Shopkeeper, that man is here again."
In the embroidery workshop, Cui Ya, who was busy, looked up inadvertently. Through the open door, she saw from afar that Yuan Lao Er and his group were walking towards this side.
She was startled, put down her needlework, and hurried to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, look, it's that man! He's here again!"
At this moment, Gu Xiu Niang was concentrating on checking a newly arrived piece of silk. When she heard Cui Ya's cry, she looked up and asked in confusion, "Who is it?"
Cui Ya stamped her feet anxiously, pointed outside the door, and shouted, "That's the guy who cries when he gets excited! He's been to our store several times before!"
"Oh--"
Gu Xiu Niang nodded in sudden realization, but then she seemed to suddenly remember something and screamed:
"What? He's here again? It's only been a short time. Didn't he come here before this month?"
As she spoke, she walked quickly towards the store door and saw Yuan Lao Er and Wang Xiaocao and Yuan Wei following behind him.
The smile on Gu Xiuniang's face instantly blossomed like a blooming flower, but the smile seemed a little stiff and unnatural.
She stepped forward and said, "Sir, welcome to our shop. What could you need this time?"
Yuan Wei, who was standing aside, looked at the ancient embroiderer curiously.
When I saw the faint smile on Gu Xiuniang's face, I was even more surprised.
Because she clearly caught a subtle hint of fear in the eyes of the ancient embroiderer.
Yuan Wei couldn't help but wonder, is this shopkeeper afraid of her father?
At this moment, the second elder said in a gruff voice, "I'm here to sell silk threads today!"
However, before he could finish his words, the second elder's eyes began to turn red and tears welled up in his eyes as big as copper bells.
Seeing this, Gu Xiu Niang trembled violently and her face instantly became helpless.
She forced a smile with forced composure.
"Sir, let's talk it over. Don't be so anxious. How about this, I'll give you a two-cent raise like last time?"
Let's go quickly. If you delay any longer, someone might misunderstand me and think I'm bullying you, a simple and honest man!
Thinking back, this situation has happened several times.
Whenever the Second Elder shed tears, his honest and pitiful look was really eye-catching.
When the customers in the shop saw this, they all looked at her strangely, as if the embroiderer had committed some unforgivable sin.
Faced with such a situation, even if the ancient embroiderer had eight hundred clever mouths, it would be difficult to explain it clearly!
Over time, she was really scared by this tall man.
How can a man of your stature cry so easily?
If she hadn't seen that the brocade he sent her was indeed exquisite and high-quality, she wouldn't even let him set foot in the store.
Gu Xiu Niang couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart.
At this time, Yuan Wei, who was standing by, suppressed her laughter and said softly, "Don't be angry, sister. My father has always been like this. You will get used to it slowly."
How could an ancient embroiderer get used to this?
She was almost going crazy, and asked with wide eyes: "He is your father?"
After receiving a positive answer, Gu Xiu Niang breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly waved his hand to signal Yuan Lao Er to go out and wait outside, then turned to Yuan Wei and said:
"In that case, let your father wait outside and you come talk to me."
If she wasn't worried about affecting the store's business, Gu Xiu Niang would have wanted to immediately put up a conspicuous "Men Not Allowed" sign at the door of the store.
