Rong Yupeng was lying on rhe ground, his clothes disheveled. His expression was… strange.
“Oh my god, so the rumor is not fake!”
“The truth is right in front of us.”
“Look at him, he looks overindulged.”
Everyone discussed it with interest.
Rong Yupeng was still in a daze when he suddenly heard the commotion. He slowly opened his eyes.
He remembered that he was in a luxurious room. Why was he suddenly in an alley when he woke up? Before he could figure it out, he heard everyone whispering.
He was a proud and arrogant person. Now that everyone saw him in such a state, he didn’t know how he could continue to live in this county.
When he thought of this and saw everyone pointing at him, he could not help but fly into a rage out of humiliation. “What are you looking at? Get lost…”
There were so many onlookers, so they were naturally not afraid of him. They continued to watch the show and gossip.
Rong Yupeng’s face turned red. He ran away from the other end of the alley in a panic.
This scene confirmed the rumors from a few days ago. In an instant, it spread throughout the entire county.
Chu Laipi and the other three immediately went to tell Chu Qingzhi the good news.
Chu Qingzhi smiled faintly. This was just the beginning.
Chu Laipi and the others saw the smile on Chu Qingzhi s lips and felt a chill run down their spines. Their fear of Chu Qingzhi increased.
Today, Chu Qingshuang’s master, Li Zhenzong, held a banquet and invited everyone in the Chu family. Other than the two young ones who went to school and Shen Ruyue, who needed to take care of the family, everyone else went.
The Chu Family put on their new clothes, took their gifts, and chatted as they set off.
The Li family was in the county city, not far from the Xu family. It was a large mansion that could accommodate more than a hundred people.
There were many beautiful courtyards in the mansion as well as rockery and gardens.
The mansion was decorated with exquisite porcelain ornaments, and it exuded the vibe of a generations-long porcelain family.
Li Zhenzong sent out many invitations. When everyone heard that Li Zhenzong had taken in a disciple and that it would be his last disciple, they were very curious. Therefore, there was an endless stream of people who came to the banquet to see what kind of disciple Li Zhenzong had taken in.
At the entrance, Li Zhenzong was all smiles. On his left was his youngest son,
Li Shaoliang, and on his right was Chu Qingshuang. They welcomed the guests together.
Chu Qingshuang was 13 years old, and there was a unique liveliness about her. Her eyes were round, and they flickered with intelligence.
She was wearing a very slim purple and pink dress that Chu Qingyue had personally made for her today.
A middle-aged man in his forties walked over and cupped his hands with a smile. “Zhenzong, congratulations.”
Li Zhenzong s face was radiant. “Thank you for coming.”‘
The middle-aged man shifted his gaze to Chu Qingshuang and sized her up. “Is this your last disciple?”‘
“Qingshuang, come and greet Uncle Xu Yuandong.” Li Zhenzong was very proud. These few days, he realized that Chu Qingshuangs talent was better than he had imagined. She was also hardworking and humble. There was no need to mention how satisfied he was.
Chu Qingshuang was very nervous, bur she still tried her best to appear collected. She greeted, “Greetings, Uncle Xu.”
Xu Yuandong looked at Chu Qingshuang and nodded. He smiled and said, “You have to learn from your master. When it comes to making porcelain, no one in the county can compare to him.”
Chu Qingshuang quickly replied, “Yes, Uncle Xu.”
“Is there no one else in this world? Li Zhenzong actually took in a girl. No matter how good a girl is, they can’t compare to a man. What’s there to show off?”
The Li family’s nemesis, the Wti family, was here…
Wu Quancai looked at Chu Qingshuang critically and mocked her. It was obvious that he was here to cause trouble.
These words attracted everyone’s attention.
Chu Qingzhi and the others stood at the side and watched as Chu Qingshuang helped receive the guests. There were also many Li family members standing beside her. Everyone was chatting happily.
However, it was all disturbed by Wu Quancai.
Chu Qingzhi’s gaze landed on Wu Quancai and her eyes were dangerously cold. No matter what, it was a joyous occasion and he shouldn’t come to ruin everyone’s fun!
The other members of the Chu family did not look too good either. Today was Qingshuang s big day. It was simply intolerable if anyone wanted to ruin it.
Li Zhenzong suppressed his smile and looked at Wu Wenquan coldly. “As long as Qingshuang is willing to work hard and inherit my mantle, I don’t care about her gender.”
Wu Quancai raised his eyebrows and looked very mean. “So what if a girl inherits your mantle? She will marry into someone else’s family in the future. At that time, your Li family’s inheritance will be taken away. What’s the use of nurturing such a disciple?”
“Yes, what’s the use?” The people who came with Wu Quancai laughed mockingly.
The guests inside walked out to watch when they heard the commotion. Now, everyone was gathered at the entrance.
Chu Qingshuang had never seen such a scene or heard such harsh words. She clasped her hands together and was so nervous that her palms were covered in cold swear.
Like a lost deer, she looked uneasily at her family.
However, when she met Chu Qingzhi’s calm and encouraging gaze, her thumping heart instantly calmed down.
Swallowing her saliva, she mustered her courage and raised her voice. “I won’t be an ungrateful person. 1’11 always remember Master’s kindness. In rhe future, as long as the Li family needs me, I’ll always be there. If the Li family wants to learn how to make porcelain, I’ll teach them everything.”
Li Zhenzong immediately revealed a gratified expression. As expected of the last disciple he took in, she didn’t disappoint him.
Li Shaoliang, who was standing on the other side, looked at Chu Qingshuang with glowing eyes. This junior sister really left a good impression on him..
