Chapter 873: A True Master Hides His Skills, You’ve Surprised Me

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ever since the founding of Great Qi, the food, clothing, and necessities in the palace had been extremely different from those of the commoners.

Take this small sweet pancake for example.

In the palace, it was pastries that were specially provided for the emperor, his consort, and the imperial heirs to enjoy.

The commoners basically never had the chance to enter the palace in their lives. Even if they occasionally ate it and wanted to replicate it when they went back…

They probably wouldn’t be able to make a similar taste either.

This was also why Gu Nuo’er’s Four Seasons Sweet Shop could keep on expanding with the reputation of carrying the palace’s pastries.

She looked at this sweet pancake that looked ordinary but seemed to contain profound meaning.

She recalled that before Nanny Hu left the palace, she knew that she liked to eat it and would make it for her every few days.

The child reached out her hand, picked up the sweet pancake, and took a bite.

It was sweet but not greasy, and the syrup stained the tip of her tongue.

It had exactly the same taste.

If it wasn’t because someone in the palace had taught her before, it meant that this old granny had also entered the palace back then.

Gu Nuo’er put down the pancake quietly.

When she looked up again, her big watery eyes were filled with a calm black light.

At this moment, when she saw the old woman’s expression, she felt that she was hiding a hint of uneasiness.

Gu Nuo’er said softly to Qi Jingsheng, “Brother Jingsheng, you can’t see. Wow are you going to study with the book you got?”

Qi Jingsheng immediately sat up straight and said proudly, “Older sister, I have an ability that no one else knows.”

“Oh? What is it? Tell me about it.’

Qi Jingsheng ran into the room and brought over a rough brush and paper. “Elder Sister, just write a sentence or a few words. Although I can’t see them, I can tell what you’re writing.”

Gu Nuo’er immediately raised her thin eyebrows, her watery eyes filled with curiosity. “Really?”

She picked up the brush and thought for a moment before writing, “Don’t coerce with age, don’t coerce with high status, don’t coerce with brothers’ influences to make friends.’

During this period, she paid attention to Qi Jingsheng from the corner of her eye.

He turned his head slightly as if he was listening.

After Gu Nuo’er finished writing, Qi Jingsheng immediately read the line out loud, word for word.

The child was surprised. “Brother Jingsheng, do you know what this line means?”

“I know! What it means is that as a person, you can’t rely on your age and be domineering, you can’t rely on your high status to be arrogant, and you can’t rely on wealth to make friends.”

Gu Nuo’er clapped sincerely. “You know so much.”

Qi Jingsheng chuckled and pointed at his ears. “Although I’m born blind, my ears are more sensitive than everyone else’s. I can tell what words are written by the rustling sound made by older sister’s handwriting.”

Gu Nuo’er’s watery eyes were clear. “In that case, you must know a lot of words.

Who taught you all of them?”

She could tell that Qi Jingsheng’s family background was not good.

They couldn’t even fill their stomachs, let alone study.

However, with their family background, where would they get the money to study and read?

Qi Jingsheng immediately said proudly, “My grandmother taught me. My grandmother is amazing. She knows how to cook delicious food and read a lot of books.

Gu Nuo’er looked at the old woman standing at the side.

At this moment, the expression she revealed could no longer be described as panic.

It was filled with guilt!

The child’s eyes were deep and she said with a faint smile, “Grandmother, a true master hides his skills. You’ve really surprised me.”

The old woman hurriedly bowed and subconsciously greeted.

“Young miss, you’re too kind. This commoner only learned a few words when I was young and doesn’t dare to say that I’m amazing.”

Gu Nuo’er’s eyes darted around and she looked at Qi Jingsheng. “Brother Jingsheng, help me look for Elder Brother Siming and distribute brush and paper with them. I want to finish the sweet pancake before going over.”

Qi Jingsheng agreed enthusiastically. “Alright, older sister. Rest well.. I’ll go help!”
