Inside the treehouse, Qian Jiyun quickly received the message from the secret guards and conveyed to him the exact conversation from Auntie Mei's house.
His eyes flickered subtly as he gazed into the distance, a faint smile played at the corners of his mouth.
"It's been many years since I've returned, but it seems there's quite a character emerging in the village." An Jiuyue rested her chin on one hand, shaking her head with an amused smile.
She knew Auntie Mei, but didn't really understand what kind of person her mother-in-law was.
An Clan Village is truly a place of unexpected talents. Just one person becomes a scholar, and they think they're an emperor?
"What kind of person is that scholar?" she asked.
But just as she spoke, she silently cursed herself.
What kind of question was that? It's not like she hadn't seen that scholar—high and mighty, thinking he's the only one worthy in the land, as if passing one level can make him the top scholar.
