Chapter 1184: Intercept
The servants were used to guests leaving without bidding farewell due to their master falling into a daze from time to time. Thus, when they saw King Rong and Queen Consort Rong walking out together, they were not curious why their master did not send them off. They only cupped their hands and sent the two of them off.
Qi Haoran was afraid that Mu Yangling would be bullied in the academy, so he immediately came to pick her up after leaving the palace. For convenience’s sake, he’d pushed away all other matters, so he had a lot of time.
He simply held Mu Yangling’s hand and walked out slowly, admiring the scenery along the way as he commented on the teachers’ houses.
In the end, Qi Haoran came to a conclusion. "Scholars seem to favor straw huts. Why doesn’t Zijin have such a preference?"
Along the way, six of the ten houses were straw huts. Of the remaining four, three were farmyards, and only one was a normal brick house.
As teachers of the famous Pine Mountain Academy, Qi Haoran did not believe that they did not even have the money to build a brick house.
Mu Yangling could not help but laugh out loud. "Because Zijin is not a teacher of Pine Mountain Academy."
With that, Mu Yangling laughed out loud.
