Chapter 147: Chapter 148: Cleaning the Academy_l

Translator: 549690339

Su Qingluo was punished to get up earlier than usual, leaving the house as it was barely light, taking the first ferry across the river, and arriving at least half a Shichen earlier than her fellow students, tending to the cleaning of the Academy.

In the quiet and peaceful Academy as dawn broke, a petite girl pulled a bucket of water from the well, carried it to the door, scooped up water with a gourd ladle, and gently sprinkled it on the stone-paved path.

After sprinkling water, she swung a broom taller than herself, diligently sweeping the ground.

In the season when winter and spring intertwined, the warmth and chill were still alternating. She wore a thin cotton robe and began to sweat profusely in no time.

Seeing that there was no one around, she simply took off the cotton robe, left only wearing a sweatshirt, and ran quickly along the path leading to each classroom, sweeping away dead branches and leaves on both sides.

The Academy was not large, so a lap around it took no more than an hour’s worth of incense burning time.

When she was finished sweeping and saw that it was still early, with only a few scattered students from various grades arriving, she went to the bamboo grove, picked up a broken bamboo, used it as a sword, and played with a set of swordsmanship to her heart’s content.

“Crack.”

A faint breaking sound of stepping on bamboo branches came from the bamboo grove.

“Swoosh!”

The broken bamboo shot out like lightning, piercing through a green bamboo stalk and lodging in front of the hidden observer, a man with a masked face dressed in black.

His face changed color on seeing this, and he took a deep breath before leaping onto the thin bamboo, jumping out of the Academy with a few bounds, and disappearing from view.

“Yin’er.”

Su Qingluo summoned Little Kingfisher: “There’s a spy in the Academy, find out who he is.”

“Okay!”

Little Kingfisher, who was playing in the woods, immediately perked up. She flew across the river like lightning, following the direction in which the man in black had escaped.

The early morning events did not affect Su Qingluo’s enthusiasm to go to school. She returned the bucket and broom to the Entrance Office and walked happily into the classroom, carrying her small schoolbag.

“Sister Qingluo, I made this chestnut cake myself. Sister, try it.”

Sun Yuwei had arrived early, and as she walked in, Yuwei happily greeted her and huddled around her desk.

“Okay.”

Su Qingluo had cleaned the Academy and moved her muscles; breakfast was more or less digested, so she took the chestnut cake and bit into it, hoping to recharge her energy.

The chestnut cake was soft and sweet, with a layer of honey spread in the middle. It melted in her mouth and was very delicious. “Yuwei’s chestnut cake is so tasty!”

Her eyes lit up as she took another bite, savoring the taste.

Sun Yuwei was a little proud, “My family has a pastry shop in the county town. The Osmanthus Cake my mother makes is even better. The County Magistrate’s family loves it, and they send someone to buy it every day.”

Su Qingluo laughed as she ate the cake, “No wonder it’s so delicious, it’s because you’ve inherited your mother’s expertise.”

“I’m still far from my mother’s level.”

Sun Yuwei covered her mouth with a handkerchief and blushed, laughing shyly.

“Besides the pastry shop, what other businesses does your family have?” As Su Qingluo enjoyed eating the cake, she felt like chatting.

Sun Yuwei happily replied, “We also have a winery. My mother’s Osmanthus Wine is even better. The fragrance wafts from the alleyway right into the main street in Xuzhou City. Everyone comes to buy my mother’s wine, you can’t even get it during the New Year!”

“Sun Yuwei, next break, you should bring me two jars of your family’s wine.”

The lively conversation caught the attention of many onlookers. Tian Qi, who stood two rows of desks away, shouted across the room, patting his chest proudly.

“My father loves the Osmanthus Wine. Name your price, our family has plenty of money.”

“I want two jars too!”

Ma Bao chimed in, “My father even built this Academy, so of course, we should get two jars of wine..”
