Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Madam Qin of the silk cloth shop was one of the top embroiderers in the capital. Her skills were extraordinary. In her previous life, she had learned it from her.

Green Pearl nodded. “Yes, Miss.”

Other than Green Pearl, Bai Xianyu also had four maidservants by her side. They were called Spring Breeze, Snowflake, Lotus, and Clear Moon.

She sat in the room for a while, but she still felt worried, so she called Lotus over.

Lotus bowed and greeted, “Greetings, Miss.”

“Mm.” Bai Xianyu paused. “Come with me to Qinglan Pavilion.”

“Yes.”

…

Qinglan Pavilion was Bai Jinyan’s residence. It was next to the artificial mountain corridor.

Before Bai Xianyu walked into the courtyard, she heard a commotion inside.

“Young Master, why are you so shameless? My Big Brother was about to win just now!”

“Who’s being shameless? Didn’t you see that my ‘Great General’ is tired? It said that it wants to rest. I won’t fight anymore. I’ll fight another day.”

“How can you be like this…”

The maids and servants inside were gathered in a pile. Bai Jinyan was in the middle, squatting on the ground without a care for his image. His robe was stained with dust, and his hand was touching the cricket’s head with heartache. It was obvious that his appearance was extraordinary.

“The ‘Great General’ is still a child. It wasn’t easy for me to spot this species, but it’s already scratched by you. How is it going to find a wife in the future…”

“Fourth Brother, you should worry about whether you can find a wife first.”

Bai Jinyan was stunned. He immediately stuffed the ‘Great General’ into the tube guiltily.

A few maidservants turned around and greeted Bai Xianyu.

“Sister, why are you here?” Bai Jinyan asked dryly. “Let’s disperse.”

Everyone scattered like birds and beasts.

Bai Xianyu pretended not to see him hand the tube to a maidservant and said helplessly, “Fourth Brother, how long has it been since you were locked up in the woodshed? Why are you fighting crickets again?”

Bai Jinyan held her shoulders and said, “Aiya, my good sister, can you not tell Third Brother? I even hid the fact that I didn’t sign up for the metropolitan examination from him last time… He has always hated to see all these. He’s simply like an old antique. He’s clearly only four years older than me.”

Bai Xianyu’s head hurt. “You know… you actually forgot such an important thing like the metropolitan exam.”

“That’s not… Sigh.” Bai Jinyan scratched his head in distress. “But that cricket was really handsome and powerful. It was rare to see one in a hundred years… It was already past the time after I finished watching the competition.”

“Don’t tell Third Brother that if I had failed the examination, it was still better than me forgetting to register for it …”

Bai Xianyu’s lips curled up helplessly as she said angrily, “Do you think Third Brother won’t know if I don’t tell him?”

Bai Jinyan smiled. “If Third Brother knew, wouldn’t he skin me alive? It would be strange if I could still stand here safe and sound.”

However, Bai Xianyu did not say anything and she just looked at him quietly with her almond-shaped eyes.

Bai Jinyan stopped smiling and asked in a daze, “Did you plead for leniency on my behalf?”

“Yeah.”

“I, your brother, really didn’t dote on you for nothing.” Bai Jinyan laughed loudly and almost jumped up in excitement. “I was just worried that Third Brother would check my exam papers, but I didn’t expect you to have already solved it for me.”

“So, if Fourth Brother doesn’t want me to be scolded too, just do well for the metropolitan examination the next time.” Bai Xianyu curled her lips and her long eyelashes fluttered.

Although he knew that his three brothers definitely could not bear to say a harsh word to Little Yu, he was still touched and agreed. “Okay, okay.”

If nothing went wrong, Fourth Brother would be the top scorer in the next metropolitan examination.

“By the way, Little Yu, why are you looking for Fourth Brother?”
