In line with the principle of reciprocating a favor, Shen Ruoyan took out a few pieces of the chestnut cake and put it in a food box, intending to give it to the old pavilion master.

But after looking at the solitary plate of pastries in the food box, she felt it was a bit monotonous, so she walked to the yard, climbed the osmanthus tree by the wall and picked a cluster of stamens. Shen Ruoyan returned to the kitchen and broke off a few golden stamens. Osmanthus flowers are embellished on the chestnut cake, and the ordinary pastry suddenly looks elegant.

Shen Ruoyan came to the old pavilion master with a food box. She didn't know what the fate was, but she bumped into Shuyao before she entered the door.

Yesterday, Shen Ruoyan was in poor condition. Facing Shuyao's aggressiveness, she failed to exert her due strength. Today, she had a full sleep and was full of energy. It was the time when her fighting power was at its strongest.

Glancing at Shuyao secretly, Shen Ruoyan decided that if she dared to provoke her, she must teach her a lesson.

Shen Ruoyan took a few steps forward. When the two of them were about to pass each other, Shuyao lived up to her expectations and said in a sinister tone: "Hey, some people really don't care about their face, knowing full well that they are not welcome. , and he just licked his face and leaned forward, I really can’t understand.”

Shen Ruoyan immediately sniffed and said pitifully: "I just made some snacks and wanted to give them to the Pavilion Master. Why did Miss Shuyao say that to me?"

You know, Shen Ruoyan used to be a sharp-tongued person, and Shuyao suffered a lot in front of her. Now seeing her aggrieved and her eye circles still red, she was immediately more sure that the master must have scolded her severely yesterday. After a meal, she came to please the master.

Thinking of this, Shuyao became even more unscrupulous. She walked up to Shen Ruoyan in a few steps and snatched the food box from her hand. She unceremoniously opened the lid and saw a plate of ordinary chestnut cake. She snorted coldly: "I thought it was some kind of delicacy from the mountains and seas, but it's really something I can't get my hands on."

Shen Ruoyan glanced at the window with the corner of her eye and saw a figure flashing inside. She deliberately raised her voice a little and said, "Miss Shuyao, please return the food box to me quickly. I made this by myself and spent a lot of thought on it." Woolen cloth."

"Huh, what's on your mind? Who knows what you have in mind?" Shuyao took advantage of Lu Yan's absence and the master's disgust with Shen Ruoyan, so naturally she would not let her go so easily, and said with disdain, "Things like this with unknown origins, How can you send it to the master? Just give up on this idea."

As he spoke, he was about to throw things out.

When the old pavilion master opened the door, he saw Shuyao holding up the food box, and the little girl on the side was pouting, huddled aside and dared not say anything, staring pitifully at the food box in Shuyao's hand. look.

This scene of villains bullying an innocent little pity made the old pavilion master's anger suddenly come out again.

"Shuyao, what are you doing!"

The angry roar made Shuyao tremble in fright, and she dropped the food box in her hand to the ground.

"Kangdang" the plate used to hold the snacks was broken into two halves, and a piece of chestnut cake shaped like a little rabbit rolled to the feet of the old pavilion master.

Looking at the mess on the floor, Shen Ruoyan sighed lightly in a voice that everyone could hear. She pinched her fingers with both hands and lowered her head slightly, revealing the reddish corners of her eyes.

Weak, pitiful, helpless.

The old pavilion master's heart trembled when he saw it.

Shen Ruoyan continued to add fuel to the fire: "Miss Shuyao, I know you are dissatisfied with me, but don't waste food like this.

You may not know in the cabinet that drought occurred in many places last year. People who grew food worked hard for a year, but in the end they had no food to eat.

There is a newborn baby next door to my house. My mother helped her with the work even before she was born. She didn’t have enough food and milk. The baby was so hungry that she cried. The mother had no choice but to eat the food very thinly. I fed her porridge bit by bit with my fingers dipped in rice soup, which was really pitiful. "

Shen Ruoyan heard this from others when she was helping the refugees. Now she said it to herself, which made Shuyao look embarrassed and ashamed.

The old pavilion master listened and nodded secretly.

After learning about the past between Shen Ruoyan and his daughter, he had long regarded Shen Ruoyan as one of his own. The little girl was bright and beautiful. What was even more rare was that she did not become arrogant because of her unique beauty. He is domineering, he is a daughter of a famous family but he knows the sufferings of the people. Who is such a well-behaved and sensible child? Which elder would not feel sorry for him?

Shuyao dared to bully her like this in front of her. She didn't know what excessive things she had done behind her back.

The old pavilion master bent down, picked up the chestnut cake on the ground, patted the dust on it, put it into his mouth and chewed it without any care.

He originally wanted to comfort Shen Ruoyan with this move, but the familiar taste in his mouth made his eyes suddenly light up, and the hand holding the chestnut cake trembled a little.

It must have been more than ten years.

I haven't tasted this taste for more than ten years.

The old pavilion master swallowed a mouthful of chestnut cake and asked Shen Ruoyan excitedly: "This is..."

Thinking that Shuyao was still there, I could only ask politely: "Is this what she taught you to do?"

Shen Ruoyan nodded.

During the time when she and the fairy sister were dependent on each other, the fairy sister was afraid that she would be too bored, so she always tried her best to make her life more interesting. Although people brought food to her every day, she still liked to do it herself. Let Shen Ruoyan make some pastries together, and tomorrow they will pick flowers and make wine together, living the quiet days in a lively way.

Shen Ruoyan made chestnut cake today according to the method taught to her by the fairy sister in her memory.

The old pavilion master held the golden pastry, as if seeing the past through it, and took another big bite, almost choking.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, he could taste the craftsmanship of his late daughter. The old pavilion master was so excited that he almost burst into tears.

After eating a piece of pastry, the old pavilion master saw Shuyao standing beside him. He suddenly remembered what happened just now, straightened his face and angrily shouted: "Shuyao, how could you become so rude now? Don't do this all day long. The strong bullies the weak, and the belief in the heart is impure, so the kung fu has not improved for so long. How are you practicing the sword skills I asked you to practice before retreating? "

Shuyao hesitated and couldn't answer.

When she saw the master picking up the piece of pastry from the ground, she felt something was wrong. She had never seen a stern master talking to people so kindly.

Seeing that Shuyao couldn't answer, the old pavilion master became even more angry and said in a decisive tone: "Shuyao, if you continue to be so negligent, don't call me master in the future."

Hearing these words, the master meant to expel her from the school. Shuyao immediately became anxious and quickly knelt on the ground, begging for mercy: "Master, it was the disciple who was wrong. Please give the disciple another chance. I will double the chance in the future." Hardworking.”
