Song Yan felt very painful at the moment. If he had known it, he would have pretended to be sick and not come.

"Everyone, I just discussed with a few close friends. Since everyone has proposed to prepare donations again, the banquet should be postponed until tomorrow!"

Magistrate Lu announced.

"This is also to facilitate everyone's preparation."

"Next, the winter banquet will be held as usual."

As soon as he said these words, Zhong Chuchu stopped in his tracks.

Song Yan was also stunned and had to return to his seat.

Mrs. Lu stood up with a smile and continued:
  "It's rare for everyone to get together today. The ladies here are all proficient in various talents. How about asking them to show off their talents?"

A gorgeously dressed woman next to her clapped her hands and said with a smile:
  "Mrs. Lu is right! I wonder if you ladies would be willing?"

The ladies present looked at each other, no one wanted to miss this opportunity.

Apart from the donation session just now, the most attractive thing about this banquet is the performance at this moment!
  All the major families present are thinking about marriage, and the status of those who can come to this banquet will not be too bad.

If young ladies and young masters from various families can choose the one they like, the elders in the family will also be very happy.

Even if you can't choose a suitable husband, you can improve your reputation if you can show off your talents.

Zhong Chuchu looked at the expressions of the women around her and felt very bored.

He simply stood up, made an excuse, and left the banquet hall.

After wandering around the garden for a while, I returned to the bamboo forest.

Unexpectedly, the man just now has not left yet.

She sat next to him.

I saw that the tea on the table had already cooled down.

Seeing no one around, he took out new hot water from the bracelet.

Jingchu heard someone coming and sat down next to him.

Just smelling the faint fragrance on her body, he knew it was the one just now.

"Tell me, why are there so many rich people?"

She said to herself:
  "Did you know that at the banquet just now, a century-old ginseng actually appeared!"

"I don't know who this young master named Jingchu is! He can actually produce such a treasure."

The person involved was sitting next to her, listening to her description of herself, the tips of her ears turned slightly red.

"Hey, do you think I need to get something to buy this ginseng?"

She complained:

"I thought I was making money very quickly, but I didn't expect that when I attended this banquet today, I realized how big the gap is!"

Maybe it was because the other party couldn't see her that she could speak so brazenly.

Jing first heard her talking to herself, and then thought about the unknown thing she had just given to him.

Suddenly I became curious about her.

"you……"

His voice was a little cold, like frozen spring water:
  "Is this ginseng important to you?"

"I want to give it to my elders."

Zhong Chuchu helplessly found a reason. It was impossible to say that it would give her a reason to take out Blue Star's ginseng in the future.

Jingchu didn't expect that he would expect this answer after asking casually.

"fine."

She replied simply.

Next, no one spoke, and there was another long silence.

Suddenly, Zhong Chuchu asked:
  "Why don't you go to the party?"

The people who can come to the magistrate Lu's house must not be ordinary people.

"My...eyes are not very good and I don't like that kind of situation."

He said it very calmly, which made Zhong Chuchu a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong with your eyes?"

she asked.

"Did you get hurt?"

"No."

Jingchu rarely talked about his eyes with others.

No one around him dared to ask him that.

Everyone is afraid of making him unhappy.

But this little lady is too courageous.

"You're not completely invisible, are you?"

She continued to ask:

"Just now I waved my hand in front of your eyes, you could clearly feel it."

"It's just that I'm close enough to see it."

He murmured: "If you get further away, you won't be able to see it."

"Can you see where I'm sitting?"

Zhong Chuchu stared at his profile and asked.

Jingchu turned his head and shook his head after a moment:
  "Just a vague figure."

He didn't know why he was so patient with her questions.

Zhong Chuchu picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

She felt as if she had discovered something was wrong.

It’s just that I can’t catch it for a while.

"What was that thing you gave me just now?"

Jingchu took the chocolate in his hand and gestured.

"This is called chocolate, it's a kind of candy!"

She said softly:
  "Eating sweets can make you feel better."

"Do you feel better?"

Jingchu murmured:
  "It seems that I have never heard anyone say this to me since I was a child."

"Ok!"

Zhong Chuchu responded loudly:
  "you may try it."

Jingchu hesitated for a moment before opening the packaging bag.

Then he took out the brown chocolate inside, put it on the tip of his nose and asked.

A sweet but unfamiliar fragrance immediately came.

He thought for a moment and put it in his mouth.

Suddenly, a sweet and slightly bitter taste filled the entire mouth.

He frowned at first, then relaxed.

Even though he never liked sweets, he still felt that the taste of this chocolate was very wonderful.

"how?"

Zhong Chuchu asked proudly:

"I didn't lie to you, did I?"

"um. Thank you."

A smile unconsciously appeared on Jingchu's lips.

She was mesmerized by the sight of her. Such a beauty was so pleasing to the eye just to look at it.

"Since you gave me this chocolate, let me give you something too."

After Jingchu finished speaking, he took out a golden whistle from his body and blew it deep into the bamboo forest.

Not long after, a man in black appeared.

"Master, please order."

The man in black lowered his head and said respectfully.

"Go get that thing for me."

"Yes."

The man in black remained expressionless. He took three respectful steps back before turning around and running out.

Zhong Chuchu was shocked when she saw this man walking as fast as flying.

Could it be that Qing Gong really existed in ancient times?
  She was thinking wildly when the man in black came back again.

The speed was so fast that it was simply staggering.

"Master, the things are here."

The man in black respectfully said.

"Well, let's go down."

Jingchu ordered.

After the man in black left, Zhong Chuchu looked at a flat box in his hand and was very curious.

Jingchu turned in her direction and handed over the box in his hand.

"Give it to you."

"Open it and see."

Seeing his sincerity, Zhong Chuchu took the box.

She thought to herself that if it was an ordinary gift, she would accept it; if it was very valuable, she would return it.

But it’s not rude to take a look now.

Looking at the box in my hand, there are no patterns on it, just the natural texture of the wooden box.

The box was polished very smooth. There should be a lock on the box, but it has now been removed.

There is only one lock without a lock.

She opened the box curiously.
