outside the window.
Zhai Rongyu looked at Di Chong: "There really is one who explicitly points it out."
"What?" Di Chong's eyes lit up.
“Your Palace of Fortune is very bright, which means that opportunity has come to you,” Zhai Rongyu said with a smile. “From now on, you just need to follow the right path and keep going.”
"Opportunity? The right path?"
Di Chong was completely bewildered. After muttering to himself twice, he suddenly slammed his right fist into his left palm. "I understand!"
"It must be your second brother's notes!"
The only change in his life these days was that he just obtained Zhai Jiqing's notes! That must be his opportunity!
Zhai Rongyu looked at Zhai Jiqing with some surprise.
[Aren't Second Brother and Di Chong at odds?]
Why would I lend him my notes?
Zhai Jiqing simply smiled as he looked at Zhai Rongyu, his eyes radiating a gentle, vibrant energy, like a spring breeze caressing willows.
Di Chong hurriedly ran into the academy.
"Thank you for your guidance, Miss Zhai. I'll go take a look right away!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Wenlong believed it without a doubt and caught up with Di Chong, saying, "Hey! Let me see those notes too!"
"Didn't you just say you weren't going to look?"
Di Chong punched him.
Wei Wenlong dodged it with a grin.
"That was just now, and now is now! Miss Zhai is the most accurate fortune teller. She herself said that reading her fortune is useful. Only a fool wouldn't read it!"
……
The two of them entered the house, playfully bickering.
Wei Wenlong dodged Di Chong and backed away, almost bumping into Qiao Jingyuan. "Hey, what are you doing here with Zhai Jiqing?"
Qiao Jingyuan was surprised that they came in so quickly, and chuckled awkwardly, "I was just about to go out and look for you, but who knew you'd come back so soon."
Wei Wenlong sidled up to him with a sly grin.
"Looking for us?"
“You wouldn’t happen to be…” He pointed to Zhai Jiqing’s empty table.
Qiao Jingyuan held his breath.
"You also want to ask Miss Zhai to tell your fortune, right?" Wei Wenlong patted Qiao Jingyuan's shoulder hard.
Qiao Jingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"I don't believe in these things."
"Ha! Even if you believe it, Miss Zhai might not be able to calculate it for you!"
"She's just someone I'm destined to meet!"
After Wei Wenlong finished speaking, he and Di Chong exchanged a glance and shrugged in unison.
I must say, the divination experience with Miss Zhai was truly unforgettable...
A destined person...
Qiao Jingyuan glanced out the window and met Zhai Rongyu's gaze.
The girl's almond-shaped eyes, like dark pupils, seemed to possess a light that could penetrate the heart.
She stared at him intently.
Qiao Jingyuan lowered her eyes, suppressing the panic in her heart, and quickly walked to her seat, opened the book, and blocked that gaze.
"Little sister, what are you looking at?"
Zhai Jiqing followed her gaze into the room.
"Second Brother, that guy over there," Zhai Rongyu tugged at his sleeve, pointed at Qiao Jingyuan, and lowered her voice, "Be careful."
"He seems to have something on his mind."
"You have exams coming up soon, so stay away from people like that, or they'll disrupt your aura."
This person had a gloomy complexion and a pale, ashen forehead.
[He must have just done something wrong.]
[He was standing near my second brother's seat just now. In my opinion, he's the one who framed my second brother for cheating!]
"Second brother, the exam is in two days. Before you go to the exam hall, make sure to check your belongings carefully so that no one with bad intentions can tamper with them."
Boys, please take good care of yourselves when you're out and about!
My second brother is so intelligent and hardworking; we mustn't let these people ruin his future.
Zhai Jiqing looked at Qiao Jingyuan, his eyes narrowing.
"I see."
He remembered everything his younger sister said.
We will be extremely careful.
"Little sister, you should go back now," he said, his sharp eyes softening as he gently patted Zhai Rongyu's head. "After the imperial examination, it will be your wedding. When that happens, your brother will definitely come back as the top scholar to bring you double joy."
"Let Rong'er be the most glamorous bride in the capital."
Zhai Rongyu chuckled.
"I knew it, my second brother loves me the most!"
Zhai Jiqing smiled and pinched her cheek.
……
No sooner had Zhai Rongyu returned to the Minister's residence than Zhai Muling and Gu Xiruo arrived at Chenxingzhai.
"Zizhu, put the things on the table."
Zhai Rongyu leaned forward curiously, "What are these that my sister and sister-in-law are carrying?"
The plate contained some exquisite embroidery.
There were forehead bands, sachets, handkerchiefs...
There are many different styles.
Especially those headbands, with their dazzling pearl ornaments, are very eye-catching.
When Gu Xiruo heard her call her sister-in-law, she blushed and touched the corner of her mouth with her handkerchief.
Zhai Rongyu leaned closer to her and giggled.
"My brother and sister-in-law are newly married, and Sister Xiruo looks even more beautiful than before!"
"Looks like you're living a very comfortable life~"
"Rongyu, please stop teasing me," Gu Xiruo said with a smile.
"Come and see the headband that Mu Ling embroidered for you."
"Did you embroider this, sister?" Zhai Rongyu turned to Zhai Muling.
Zhai Muling nodded with a smile.
She picked up a headband, held it up to Zhai Rongyu's head, and then helped her put it on.
"Rong'er, take a look, do you like it?"
Gu Xiruo held up the bronze mirror to Zhai Rongyu.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Zhai Rongyu repeatedly praised, "This forehead ribbon is so beautiful!"
"Sister's cooking is so good!"
[I couldn't even conjure something this beautiful with talismans!]
She looked in the mirror and lovingly touched the gemstone on her head.
Zhai Muling was happy to see that she liked it.
"I embroidered the headband, but the gemstones on it were specially found by your sister Xiruo, and they are quite valuable."
Gu Xiruo smiled and said, "Our Rongyu sister naturally deserves the best."
Zhai Rongyu held one hand on each side, rubbing against them as she nestled between them, saying, "My older sister and sister-in-law both love me, hehe~"
She blinked and asked Zhai Muling.
"But why is my sister embroidering a headband for me?"
Zhai Muling pointed her index finger at her head.
"You don't look like someone who's about to get married at all; you still have the mind of a child."
"When ordinary women get married, they will embroider their wedding dresses by hand for good luck."
“But you are the Regent’s wife, so your wedding dress will naturally be carefully prepared by the palace, and you won’t need to do it yourself. But we can’t lose this good omen, so I embroidered these headbands for you, ten of them, to wish for perfection.”
She looked at Zhai Rongyu with a smile.
May Rong'er have good fortune, happiness, and good health.
Gu Xiruo pointed to the sachets, "Your older brother is a rough man, and your sister made these for you. So naturally, I also want to give him a token of my appreciation on your behalf."
"The other dowry items need not be mentioned, but these sachets and handkerchiefs, stitch by stitch, all express the wish for harmony and love between husband and wife. We only hope that you and the Regent will be of one heart and mind forever, and live in perfect harmony."
Zhai Rongyu looked at the food on the plate and was deeply moved.
"Thank you sister."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"My shoddy embroidery skills have nowhere to be displayed~"
Everyone in the room burst into laughter.
Soon, the day of the scientific expedition arrived.
