Chapter 346: Watching the Snow Together

Su Hua also said, “It’s really a blessing to be able to admire the snow with Master, Mistress, and Senior Sister. I’m already looking forward to it. I’ve long wanted to compete with Senior Sister.”

Zhou Heng cupped his hands. “Senior Sister is quite knowledgeable. With this in mind, everyone will look forward to it.”

Lin Pingsheng laughed. “Alright, then you have to be prepared.”

Lin Yaoyao was his only daughter. She was smart and wise. Ever since her scar healed, she no longer abhorred worldly judgment. Her knowledge was not inferior to Su Chong, Su Hua, Zhou Heng, and the others.

However, they had never competed with each other before. It was hard to say who would win. It would be very exciting to compete with each other.

Su Chong, Su Hua, and the others smiled and bade farewell.

When they returned, they even invited Sun Baoshan, Sun Ziqian, and Madam Lian.

Sun Baoshan nodded happily.

He was happy to think that Su Xiaolu would also be there.

Lin Pingsheng also told Madam Chen, and Lin Yaoyao about it during dinner.

Madam Chen smiled and said, “That’s fine. It’s a good year this year. It’s a good thing to let them relax. They have to prepare for the Spring Quarter Examinations after the new year. It’ll be difficult to relax.”

Lin Yaoyao’s temperament was cold. Hearing Lin Pingsheng’s suggestion, she frowned slightly and said calmly, “Father, mother, go and play. I won’t be going. I’m going to visit a student.”

Lin Yaoyao didn’t want to go because she thought that Su Chong would make her very uncomfortable.

She didn’t know what was wrong with Su Chong recently. He would always look at her when he met her, and his words were always incongruous, neither here nor there. Su Chong was too strange, just like men and women who had begun to fall in love would have strange and abnormal actions.

It was unbelievable and childish.

Perhaps she was thinking too much, but it was better to avoid it no matter what. She was 31 years old, and Su Chong was only 22. They shouldn’t have any interactions.

In her life, she had long been prepared to never marry. She wanted to teach and study books. She hoped that her knowledge could let more women learn.

With that, Lin Yaoyao ate quietly.

Madam Chen and Lin Pingsheng pondered for a while. Then, the couple looked at each other. Lin Pingsheng said, “This time, we’re not just going to play. Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng all want to compete with you. They’re men, and you’re a woman. Haven’t you always been unconvinced that only men can study? This is a very good opportunity.”

“If there’s a competition, there’s a winner. If you miss this opportunity, it’ll be hard to come by in the future.”

Lin Pingsheng smiled and looked at his daughter, Lin Yaoyao, leisurely.

Madam Chen smiled and said nothing.

A father knew his child best. Lin Yaoyao was not a woman who was content with the current situation. She had ambitions, but the world had always been harsh on women.

Su Hua was so outstanding. He was the first in Furongzhou.

Lin Yaoyao’s desire to win was aroused. She hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’ll go. I can also see how talented the first place in the entire Furongzhou village examination is.”

Lin Pingsheng smiled and nodded. “I want to see it too.”

Who was better?

Madam Chen smiled and said, “Then I’ll prepare too. If you want to eat, I’ll make my best egg yolk rice crust for you.”

Lin Pingsheng nodded and said gently to Madam Chen, “Thank you, Madam.”

Madam Chen smiled and shook her head. All these years had passed peacefully and she had never gone out with anyone. Thinking about it, she was actually looking forward to it.

It was a good thing to be on good terms. Their daughter, Lin Yaoyao, would never marry. It was impossible for the couple to accompany Lin Yaoyao for the rest of their lives. Lin Yaoyao’s personality was also cold. If she could make a few good friends, she would not be too lonely in the future.

The family ate quietly and gently.

At this moment, in the Sun residence.

Sun Baoshan happily shared the news with Sun Ziqian, Madam Lian, and Sun Baoqian. Sun Baoshan could not stop at all. He said excitedly, “Father, mother, you must go. Senior Sister Lin, Su Chong, Su Hua, and Senior Brother Zhou Heng are going to compete. It will definitely be very exciting.”

As he spoke, Sun Baoshan also said to Sun Baoqian, “Sister, aren’t you learning from Senior Sister Lin too? If you miss such a rare opportunity, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life.”

Sun Baoqian also wanted to go. She looked at Sun Ziqian and Madam Lian hopefully and said expectantly, “Father, Mother, I want to go too. Daniu and Erniu will also go. Xiaoling and Xiaolu will also go.”

Madam Lian smiled and nodded. “Go, go, go. Our family will go and join in the fun.”

Sun Ziqian also smiled gently. “It must be exciting. I don’t want to miss it and feel regretful for the rest of my life. In terms of knowledge, I have a few taels of ink in my stomach.”

Sun Baoshan said to Sun Bocheng, “Grandpa, are you going too?”

Sun Bocheng waved his hand. “I won’t go. Just have fun.”

Firstly, he was old.

Secondly, he was older than his peers. The children would be more restrained. When he was young, he had many such memories. It was enough.

Now that he saw that his grandchildren were healthy, he was very satisfied.

Sun Bocheng smiled and instructed, “Get the chefs to make some delicious snacks and bring them over later. Have fun.”

Sun Ziqian and Madam Lian nodded in agreement.

When Su Chong and the others returned home, they also told Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao about this.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao thought about it and agreed. After dinner, the couple went next door to talk to Chen Hu and his wife.

Upon hearing that they were going to admire the snow, Chen Xing clapped and cheered. “Then can we build a snowman?”

Chen Xing’s eyes were sparkling with anticipation. He ran to Madam Qian’s side and wheedled, “Mother, go, go, go. Sister Ling’s roasted chicken is delicious.”

Although Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu did not speak, they could not hide the excitement in their eyes. They wanted to go too.

Needless to say, Chen Shi also wanted to go.

Chen Hu and Madam Qian nodded. “Alright, let’s go together.”

They would take a day off tomorrow and go out to play.

Since he was going out to play, he had to bring a lot of food and drinks.

There was no lack of refreshing pickles and sweet and spicy cabbage.

Madam Zhao also brought a plate of mutton.

The next morning, the few families drove out of the city together.

There was a forest outside the city called the Peach Blossom Forest. It was filled with peach trees. There was a pavilion. When spring bloomed, many people in the town would come here to admire the flowers.

The terrain was flat and there were no flowers in winter, but it was also very suitable for admiring the snow.

Everything was placed on the carriage. As it was not far, one could just walk slowly.

When they arrived, everyone started to set up a charcoal stove so that the pavilion would not be cold.

As parents, they were all warming themselves by the charcoal fire.

Su Chong and the others were watching the scenery outside the pavilion. Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng had already started to exchange knowledge with Lin Yaoyao. Sun Baoshan followed Chen Xing, Sun Baoqian, Su Xiaoling, and Chen Erniu, while Su Xiaolu had already brought Chen Zheng to the peach blossom forest.

Su Xiaolu asked Chen Shi to try his best to catch up to her, but before Chen Shi could cultivate his Internal Breath, Su Xiaolu flew far away with Qinggong. How could he catch up? Su Xiaolu was mischievous and kicked every peach tree. Then, Chen Shi, who chased after her, quickly became a living snowman.
