Chapter 78: Feather Pen

  I explained this to him, and he eagerly took it over, holding it in his hand and looking at it again and again, feeling it with his fingers. He was still a child after all, and couldn't help but ask: "Is this really one of those feathers? It's really beautiful!"

  I held in my hand the jade he had given me and said, "These are just some trifles, they can't compare to the value of this jade."

  A faint smile appeared on his pale face as he said, "This jade was the only thing my father personally gave me, and I've been carrying it with me all along."

  I held the jade pendant which felt as heavy as a thousand catties: "Then why did you give it to me?"

  Song Tang turned over and I hurried to support him, putting a pillow behind his back. He said, "If it weren't for the most precious thing, I wouldn't have easily given you away."

  Such a light and faint sentence, yet it sounds so heavy to me. This sentence is like an iron hammer that smashes my originally hard heart into a piece of quicksand, instantly shattering all my defenses into nothingness.

  I just buried my head and didn't speak, a low "thank you" was also said after a long time, as soon as I finished speaking, I ordered the red spirit to bring in the medicine.

  Three days later, Mrs. Lü said that the person sent by the madam couldn't invite Yiqian Xun at all. When Yiqian Xun heard that he was going to come to the Song Mansion to teach his disciples, he didn't even want to see him twice afterwards.

  Looking at Lü's worried appearance, my heart also cast a shadow. I don't know if the madam didn't sincerely send someone to invite her, or if it's really that hard to invite Yī Qiān Xún.

  Song Tang's face turned even paler after hearing this, and he only said: "I'm such a useless person, who would be willing to teach me?" He had wanted to say more, but looking at Lü Shi's self-reproachful and worried face, he turned away and endured it, saying no more.

  At that time, my heart was sour, and I didn't know if it was because of Song Tang's sadness or Lv Shi's reluctance. Anyway, I suddenly felt dizzy and said: "I'll go ask, I'll go ask in person."

  Song Tang and Lü Shi obviously didn't believe me, so I said: "I'll personally go invite him, this way it will show more sincerity. I think that Yi Qian Xun being such a famous talented scholar must have his own pride, if we put aside our dignity to invite him, he might be moved."
