Shu Yu sized up Dahu. Very good, very energetic. It seemed that the little guy was very eager to study.
She nodded slightly and said to Lu Sanzhu, “Father, we’ll be leaving first.”
Lu Sanzhu, who had been wandering around the shop and was surprised to see that there was indeed no clothing left, quickly ran over. “Wait for me. I’ll go too.”
After saying that, Lu Sanzhu saw that Lu Erbai frowned and didn’t quite agree. Lu Sanzhu then quickly picked up the Dahu and placed him on his shoulder, then ran out.
Shu Yu was speechless.
She shook her head and followed him.
Lu Sanzhu ran very quickly. From afar, it looked as if he could fall at any moment. Shu Yu was terrified and immediately rushed forward to say, “Put him down. What if he falls?”
Just as Lu Sanzhu was about to say that it was no problem, Dahu, who was sitting on his shoulder, replied with a tense face, “Don’t worry, Shu Ya. I’ve already grabbed his hair and neck tightly. Before he falls, I’ll try my best to raise his head so that I won’t fall with him.”
Lu Sanzhu looked at Dahu in shock. He moved his head, and as expected, he felt a strong sense of shackles.
Lu Sanzhu immediately grimaced. “You little brat, so you’ve already thought of a way out. I’m your uncle, and you’re actually using me as a stepping stone?
“I want to protect myself,” Dahu said seriously. “Then you don’t need to protect me?
“But you’re the one who’s about to hurt me.”
Lu Sanzhu actually felt that he couldn’t refute Dahu. He thought, “D*mn it, when did this little br*t become so eloquent?”
Shu Yu almost laughed to death when she heard that. Did they misunderstand something? If Lu Sanzhu fell, even if Dahu plucked all the hair on Lu Sanzhu’s head, it wouldn’t change the fact that he would fall as well.
She rubbed her temples and reached out to lift Dahu from Lu Sanzhu’s shoulders.
Lu Sanzhu was fuming. He felt that his authority as an elder had been challenged. Thus, as soon as Shu Yu took over Dahu, Lu Sanzhu glared at her fiercely.
Dahu’s back was facing him, so he didn’t feel his sharp gaze at all. He just held Shu Yu’s hand and asked, “Shu Yu, I’m a little nervous. Do you think the headmaster will ask me a difficult question? I just learned how to memorize a little of the textbook.”
Shu Yu held Dahu’s hand and walked forward. “Don’t be nervous. Answer
whatever the teacher asks. Honestly explain how much you know, and ask whatever you don’t understand. This way, the teacher will know what to teach you, understand?”
Dahu nodded. “I understand.”
The two of them quickly walked away. Lu Sanzhu stood in place for a while, gritted his teeth, and followed them.
The school was not far away. Although Ningshui Street was bustling and lively, it became much quieter two streets down.
Shuxian Academy was just there. Shu Yu quickly held Dahu’s hand and stood at the door.
As expected, the doors of the school were tightly shut, and not a single sound of reading could be heard.
Shu Yu looked down at Dahu. “I’ll knock?”
“Yes…” Halfway through the Dahu’s nod, Lu Sanzhu beat Shu Yu to it and started knocking on the door.
Shu Yu looked at his rude behavior, and the veins on her forehead twitched violently.
Just as Shu Yu was about to stop him, the door was opened from the inside.
Then, an old woman’s face appeared from inside.. She sized up the three people in front of her “May I ask who you are looking for?”
