Chapter 37 Don’t Ask About Hidden Secrets
This name... is quite random.
Jiang Ruohua pursed her lips. She remembered that when the vassal states of the Daqi Dynasty paid tribute, they could also eat a kind of foreign radish, called carrot...
As for the taste, she didn't like it very much. She always felt that it tasted a bit strange. However, her uncle who liked to run around all day liked it very much. He often went to various countries to eat and drink because he could run around.
Carrot looked a little stupid. Hu Xingxing herself was still a child. How could she know how to teach a child? At most, the little girl was kind and couldn't bear to let the child live on the streets, so she brought him with her.
"It's nothing for us." Hu Xingxing put her hands on her hips and changed the subject. "The master will come here every night. If there is nothing to do, it's best to come every night."
"Okay." Jiang Ruohua nodded. She did have some time at night. Fortunately, she didn't have to go to class with her sisters at home. The rest time was enough.
Seeing that she agreed readily, Hu Xingxing opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. After a moment's pause, she said, "He is really strict, especially after you said that before, he will only be stricter with you."
But seeing Jiang Ruohua nod calmly, Hu Xingxing couldn't help but frown and complain in her heart. This young lady really has a weird temper. She usually looks at the rich young ladies coming and going on the prosperous streets from a distance. Which one is not delicate and precious? Not only do they never touch women, but they are also thin-skinned and want to save face. They will kill themselves if they are humiliated.
Before beating me, not to mention other places, just in this small unattended place in the capital, there are girls who come to learn from their masters in order to fight for a living, but they all end up being scolded away by their masters.
Hu Xingxing was somewhat proud. She was shameless at that time. After all, she was about to starve to death. Xu Weiqing had food in his hand. No matter how badly he scolded her, she accepted the meal. Everything in this world has a price. If you steal or rob, you may be beaten and sent to the authorities. In Xu Weiqing's place, it's just a scolding all day long.
"Have you really thought it through?" Hu Xingxing asked Jiang Ruohua tentatively. She just couldn't figure it out, and she was a little unconvinced. From her point of view, why did Jiang Ruohua have to suffer this?
Those rich ladies, who have no worries about food and clothing, look down on the vulgar people who practice martial arts. As a descendant of a general, it makes sense for Jiang Ruohua to practice martial arts as a hobby. It's not like her, which is related to life and death. Where else in the world can a girl be so desperate?
She was even more cruel than her. Hu Xingxing felt a little unwilling.
Jiang Ruohua obviously had a decent upper-class life waiting for her, but she came here to become a disciple of a master who everyone avoided.
"Well, I will come on time tomorrow." Jiang Ruohua saw the reluctance in Hu Xingxing's eyes, but she didn't intend to explain anything. It was her own business, how could she let outsiders know easily?
Hu Xingxing muttered softly, and no one heard what she said clearly. Seeing this, Jiang Ruohua couldn't help but smile: "Senior Sister Hu, don't you want me to become your disciple?"
Just tease her.
As soon as the words fell, Hu Xingxing's expression tensed up. She pretended to be calm, but her expression was actually showing on her face. She looked away and said, "No, when did I say that? Please, miss, what are you thinking?"
"Then we will be together every day." Jiang Ruohua smiled at her, "Senior sister will definitely welcome me, right?"
Hu Xingxing choked. She didn't like Jiang Ruohua very much, but she didn't hate her either. She was just a little unwilling to accept Jiang Ruohua's strength, but she seemed a little unhappy to welcome Jiang Ruohua with a smile.
All her worries were written on her face. Jiang Ruohua was looking at Hu Xingxing's tangled little look with satisfaction, thinking about what gift to bring to this little senior sister tomorrow?
"It's late at night, Junior Sister Jiang, please go back early." Ah Yao suddenly spoke up, relieving Hu Xingxing's embarrassment, "Junior Sister Jiang has passed the master's assessment, so Junior Sister Hu and I will naturally welcome you. See you tomorrow."
Jiang Ruohua was not annoyed. She was just joking with Hu Xingxing. Ah Yao saw it and didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I'll take my leave, Senior Brother Ah Yao, Senior Sister Hu, see you tomorrow."
After she left, Hu Xingxing realized it belatedly and said: "Senior Brother, is she playing a joke on me? She clearly made up her mind to come, and why did she have to ask me these questions?"
A Yao was wearing a mask and couldn't see any expression, but his eyes clearly revealed the helplessness of why you just found out.
"Master will test your martial arts tomorrow." Ah Yao did not say anything clearly, "If you are always outdone by Miss Jiang, you should think about it carefully in the future."
This hit Hu Xingxing's weak spot, and she immediately stood up. If she was outdone by Jiang Ruohua every day, Master would definitely cut her down!
Damn it! Hu Xingxing was extremely reluctant to strengthen her training, and she complained with tears in her eyes. It turned out that the young ladies of rich families were cunning. After beating her up, they also teased her. She had to surpass Jiang Ruohua!
Wow, so tired!
When Jiang Ruohua returned, she was in a good mood. She had dealt with Xu Weiqing, and the two fellow disciples were not difficult to get along with. Hu Xingxing was simple and had no cunning. Although Ah Yao looked mysterious, he had no ill will towards her. They were all people worth making friends with.
With the dream as a warning, Jiang Ruohua took it as a warning and naturally would not let herself be trapped in loneliness again. Making friends from all walks of life is also a part of her goal. As the saying goes, more friends mean more paths, and more paths mean more solutions.
At this time, claiming to be aloof and putting himself on a high pedestal will only make everyone avoid him, but Jiang Ruohua doesn't intend to do this.
On the way back, she touched her chin and looked at Wu Xingxing's look. Do you want to bring some delicious food to feed her tomorrow?
I always think it should be fun.
Grandpa Gao remained silent all the way, and returned to Grandpa Gao's home first. Jiang Ruohua bowed and thanked him: "I'd like to trouble Grandpa Gao to accompany me on this trip today."
"Miss, you're welcome. This is what I should do." Grandpa Gao said hurriedly, "As long as Miss has considered it, I will do whatever I want."
Just raising his eyes and looking at Jiang Ruohua again, Grandpa Gao couldn't help but sigh.
"Is Grandpa Gao worried about something?" Seeing him like this, Jiang Ruohua roughly guessed something in her mind, "I will not delve into Master's matters."
When Grandpa Gao heard what she said, he immediately understood what Jiang Ruohua had guessed. He sighed and said: "In fact, I don't know everything about that matter. Miss, it's best for you to understand. I just want to say that since the matter is deliberately concealed, the fewer people who know about it, the better. I can’t say anything more.”
