Chapter 8 Master?

"It hurts so much! It hurts so much! Damn old woman!"

【…】

"Is there any NPC who can do the quest painlessly? It really hurts!"

【It costs money.】

"Forget it, I'll bear with it..." Jiang Jiang took the wooden basin and some clean clothes to the bathroom to take a bath.

I ran into my roommate who was working in the dyeing workshop, and by chance I saw that his arm, which was resting on the edge of the bathtub, was covered with bruises and purple bruises.

Jiang Jiang suddenly felt that the wound on his arm was not so painful anymore.

Perhaps noticing Jiang Jiang's gaze, the roommate put his hands down and hid in the water, looking at Jiang Jiang.

"You are much late today. Which palace did you play in and forget to come back?"

Jiang Jiang smiled at her roommate, and said, "There is a new batch of fish in the pond of the Imperial Garden. They are very beautiful. I will take my sister to see them next time when I have time."

"What's so good about fish? Go and see for yourself. Come back earlier next time."

"Ok."

Jiang Jiang fetched some water and lay down in his own wooden bucket. The warm water flow dispelled the pinch marks on his arms.

While rubbing his arm seriously, his roommate seemed to see the wound on Jiang Jiang's arm and asked:

"Did Mammy hit you?"

"Hmm." Jiang Jiang paused and continued rubbing.

"I have some medicine here. I'll get you some later."

"Thank you sister!"

"You're not polite, little girl. What's your name?"

"Jiang Jiang! Tan Jiang Jiang! Sister, my name is Tan Jiang Jiang!"

"My name is Song Ruyan."

"Thank you Sister Song!"

[……] A fool can tell a lie without blushing or beating his heart, how cool!

Master!

Could it be that you were just pretending before?

Tsk!

Jiang Jiang: Did you install surveillance cameras for the villains?

[…No] How is that possible?

That's the villain?

Am I just a small system?

Jiang Jiang: Then how do you know so much about the villain?

[…There is a script] I forgot to mention that.

Jiang Jiang: A script? A storybook?

[Yes, do you want it? I can give it to you now. ]

Jiang Jiang: You keep it and remind me when you need it.

[…Sorry, I forgot you can’t read. ]

Jiang Jiang: It doesn’t matter

"Tan Jiangjiang, the exam is over."

Yes, there are a series of assessments for the princess’s study partner, and only the top girls can truly become the princess’s study partner.

Jiang Jiang was eliminated from all exams including knitting, embroidery, needlework, writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone.

Because Jiang Jiang’s level of cognition is really poor.

Even if you study hard, it is difficult to reach half of what your other classmates can achieve.

For some reason, Jiang Jiang was retained.

The maid standing in front listening to the results had the same doubts as Jiang Jiang. She pointed at Jiang Jiang and asked the examiner, Mammy, "Mammy, why was I not retained when I got top marks in all subjects, but this maid with low marks in all subjects was able to stay?"

"How outrageous!" the eunuch interrupted the palace maids' whisper with a shout.

The nanny took the booklet and read out the results of Jiang Jiang and the palace maid who raised her hand. Then she took another booklet from the maid beside her, turned to the page with the two of them and started reading.

"Zheng Qing, you beat a palace maid in the lotus pond four days ago, so you're punished. You stole the examination materials in the same examination room during the exam yesterday, so you're punished..." The nanny read several pages.

"Tan Jiangjiang, you have passed the test with no mistakes or merits. You will be admitted to the next exam. Do you have any objections? Please state them all today!" Jiang Jiang's thin words surprised the waitress next to him.

"..." After listening to the nanny reading the records in the manual, the palace maid who raised her hand looked around, wishing she could lower her head to the ground, feeling ashamed and angry.

She retreated behind the others, feeling embarrassed and annoyed.

The other palace maids also kept silent and lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

The selection of study companions from among the palace maids had to go through five tests, and only those who were finally retained were the real study companions.

During this period, the palace maids who were eliminated would be sent to various palaces to do work.

This is the first exam.

The next exam will be held in three months and will be on music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
