Chapter 900: Blood Phobia
Xiao Yurong was relieved when Li Shiyan finished his words.
Li Shiyan read his article again. After all, he was a disciple who had finished his apprenticeship. There was nothing wrong with the article. It was very good.
Then came the gift from the Crown Prince.
Zhao Xuanjing was very direct. He brought out a box of gold.
The golden color was pleasing to the eye. Xie Qiao was stunned when she saw it. Fortunately, she still remembered that she was a master. She gulped and looked away, “No wonder there was a carriage that leaves deep ruts. It was because of these…”
“Teacher has been working hard all year round. Gold can solve problems It can also settle down and establish one’s life. It is the most reliable and useful thing. Senior Sister Mo and Senior Brother Xiao will prepare the other treasures. This is enough gift from me.” Zhao Xuanjing smiled casually, he looked extremely free and easy.
Gold was tacky.
However, who could say that the gold given by the Crown Prince was tacky?
Moreover, she also wanted such a tacky thing.
“That’s right. Although scholars should not be materialistic, since they have to live, they need to eat. Gold and silver are indispensable. The gift given by His Highness is appropriate.” Li Shiyan looked impartial.
After giving his teacher the gift, Xie Qiao did not forget to bring the greeting gift for her junior brother.
Sang You was sick, so she would keep the gift for him for the time being. As for Jiang Jinlu’s…
Xie Qiao took out a small box and handed it over.
Jiang Jinlu was still a little embarrassed. After all, he still had some doubts about eldest senior sister. Now that he wanted to accept her gift, he thought it was quite embarrassing. However, the person in front of him was, after all, his eldest senior sister. If he did not accept it, he would be insensible.
Jiang Jinlu took the box.
Under his teacher’s gaze, he opened the box.
He only saw that there was a red… snack inside?
Xie Qiao smiled kindly. “You don’t look old, and you look like a child. You must like sweet things. So, after I came back last night, I personally went to the carriage to get a pot and made this red pastry. Junior Brother, have a taste and see if it’s delicious.”
Jiang Jinlu felt a headache as he looked at the fiery red color.
Red was his least favorite color.
However, his teacher and the others were all staring at him, and he did not want to disrespect his senior sister. Fortunately, this thing was, after all, a snack, so…
He braced himself and took a bite.
This snack was the size of a palm, and it looked like a magnified mooncake. Although it was red, the patterns on it were pretty good.
However…
After taking a bite, Jiang Jinlu felt as if he was eating porridge. He then realized that something was flowing inside the snack. Not only that, it even flowed out of the snack. He frowned and looked at it
“Blood…”
With a thump, he could not resist and fainted.
Xie Qiao was surprised. “Junior Brother, do you really have blood phobia? I didn’t believe it when Junior Brother Crown Prince told me. I didn’t expect it to be so serious!”
“His old problem is much better now. In the past, he couldn’t even see anything red. Otherwise, he would have a terrible headache. The reason why he fainted now is probably because of the ingredients in Senior Sister’s red pastry. It looks like blood…” Xiao Yurong was also shocked, their eldest senior sister could actually make such a terrible thing.
Not to mention his fifth junior brother, even he was shocked. He thought his junior brother had accidentally bitten his tongue.
“I just used some flower and fruit juice,” Xie Qiao said casually. Then, she raised her eyebrows and looked at the person lying on the ground. She felt much better. “Since Junior Brother has fainted, let’s not wait for him. Let’s go out for a walk first..”
