The little boy suspiciously stuck out his tongue and took a lick.
Bai Zhi’er fluttered her long eyelashes: "Is it sweet?"
The little boy hesitated: "It seems... there’s no difference."
Bai Zhi’er smiled sweetly: "But you’ve already tasted it, so there’s no way to sell it again, so no refunds."
The little boy’s mother finally reacted.
"You little girl, you’re still so young, how can you be so shrewd and cunning! You tricked us into tasting it so you wouldn’t refund!"
Bai Zhi’er turned around, picked up two copper coins and tip-toed to place them in the woman’s hand.
"You can say we didn’t make it well, but you can’t say the taste is bad because we use the sa sugar."
"I’ll refund you these two cents, how about this, if you tell others that our sugar figures taste the best, next ti you co, I’ll sell them to you cheaper."
After speaking, the little one blinked her big eyes and lowered her voice: "Only cheap for you, everyone else costs five cents, but for you, just three!"
The little boy was taken aback.
He loved eating sugar figures, but his mother rarely bought them for him.
If it could be a bit cheaper, only three cents, his mother wouldn’t have to feel bad about spending the Silver!
The little boy was tempted.
He imdiately looked up and said: "Mom..."
Seeing Bai Zhi’er refund two cents, the woman wasn’t as angry as before.
After all, it’s a bit ugly, but it’s still edible, and the taste is the sa.
The woman grabbed her son’s hand and snorted: "Consider this little girl sensible!"
With that, the mother and son walked away.
Watching their backs, Bai Zhi’er also snorted.
"Being able to eat such an ugly green ox is quite a unique luck!"
After saying that, the little one turned to see Mo Yanchi’s expression, she ran over and sweetly reassured: "Master, this is our specialty, don’t listen to their nonsense!"
Mo Yanchi adjusted his mood and kindly asked Bai Zhi’er: "Little student, you handled this quite well just now."
"Tell , what did you learn from this experience?"
Bai Zhi’er’s round black eyes sparkled.
She pondered: "I’ve learned that when encountering unreasonable people, you should consider the problem from their perspective and say what they want to hear, so things can be solved!"
Mo Yanchi was taken aback, quite surprised.
He initially wanted to tell the little one that it’s not good to boast about things one isn’t skilled at.
However, unexpectedly, Bai Zhi’er’s answer was surprising!
After a brief surprise, Mo Yanchi stroked his beard and praised: "Your understanding is incredibly high, delicate and perceptive, little pupil, you surpass your senior brothers by quite a bit, making your master very gratified."
Bai Zhi’er blinked: "But Master, Zhi Bao also has a question."
"Oh?" Mo Yanchi imdiately took interest: "Tell ."
"If Master sees the two words Feng Chao, what would you associate with them?"
"Feng Chao..." Mo Yanchi frowned and pondered: "I would first think of the Dynasty, but in the world, there’s no such country."
Mo Yanchi paused for a mont, then suddenly said: "There’s another phrase, Ming Feng Chao Yang, aning a Virtuous Minister eting a wise ruler."
Bai Zhi’er suddenly opened her small mouth wide.
She quickly took off her mask.
If the Feng Chao on the Jade Pendant is what Master said, this idiom’s aning.
Then Mingyang Academy should be related to this Jade Pendant!
After all, an academy is also a symbol for cultivating Virtuous Ministers to accompany wise rulers in their careers later on.
Bai Zhi’er suddenly felt she understood.
She seed to realize that her mother might have left her with a big thing!
The little one grabbed Mo Yanchi’s hand: "Master, Zhi Bao learned sothing today, let’s go back!"
