At the Zhou Hou Residence, Zhulan was watching her son solve problems when Steward Ding came in and said, "Young master, Jia Qing Lu is here."
Zhulan gestured for the guest to be let in, and Jia Qing Lu entered, "I greet you, madam."
Zhulan smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for days; you seem to have grown taller."
Jia Qing Lu, who often visited the Qin Prince Residence and was familiar with Chang Xhong, had also visited the Hou Residence many times. Zhulan had grown fond of him as well. He was an ambitious child and a promising martial artist, as Rongchuan had praised many times.
Jia Qing Lu replied, "Recently, I've been growing quite a bit."
Chang Xhong stood up to measure, "You've grown too quickly; you're almost as tall as me."
Jia Qing Lu smiled, "I've been practicing martial arts year-round, and the food at the Qin Prince Residence is good, so I grow fast."
