Chapter 15: Marriage Interview

" And the flavor is simply delicious." Ruo Chanzi looked at Cai Yunhai. " Patriarch Cai, Where did you get this from? And how is it made?"

" Speaking to the elder, I know some of the ingredients." Jia Hao suddenly spoke. " Pure Spring Water and roots of five hundred year old ginseng are added in this."

" Ah? Five hundred year old ginseng, huh?" Ruo Chanzi slammed on the table with excitement. " No wonder why it\'s so rich in energy. And to counter the explosiveness of ginseng, Pure Spring Water is the best choice."

" If you sell this, You will get thirty thousand taels of gold at least."

" Thirty thousand taels?" Cai Yunhai was surprised. " Hmm, But it\'s also alright. After all, It\'s much better than other energy recovering medicines."

Cai Lingzhi was surprised when she heard that. Now, the mysterious charm of Jia Hao became even more alluring for her. Soon, a servant came with a stack of papers and placed them before Ruo Chanzi.

" Lord, These are the answer sheets which we received the earliest."

" Hmm, Let\'s see..." Ruo Chanzi waved his hands as the papers fluttered swirling around him magically as they suspended in the air. Ruo Chanzi gazed at them with lightning fast speed as he discarded them one by one quickly.

" This one is wrong..."

" This one is wrong too..."

It took barely a few seconds for Ruo Chanzi to check if an answer sheet was correct or not. After long, only five remained floating before him.

" These four are the ones who barely scored one-third of the total scores. Not bad at all." Ruo Chanzi nodded. " There are still many talents in this city after all."

" Eh? This..." Ruo Chanzi was stunned as turned it around and showed it. " I didn\'t know a child was also participating. What the hell is this handwriting?"

Ruo Chanzi was about to throw it away, but he paused as he looked at the written answers carefully. The more he read, the more shocked he got.

" This... This... Who wrote this paper?" Ruo Chanzi looked at the name at the bottom. " Who is Jia Hao?"

Suddenly, The atmosphere became silent as they all looked at Jia Hao. Jia Hao instinctively took a step back as he forced a smile. " Why are you guys looking at me like this?"

Ruo Chanzi turned around the paper and made everyone look at it. Cai Yunhai was the first one to laugh out loud.

" Hahaha! Brat, Is this something you wrote? Haha, Your handwriting is even worse than mine."

Cai Yunhai was naturally a military person who would rather use his saber than using his pen. He doesn\'t understand the matter of scholars, and neither his handwriting is good.

However, finally seeing someone with better knowledge yet worse handwriting than him made him very pleased.

" It\'s so...Ugly. Even children who have learned basic calligraphy can write better." Cai Lingzhi mumbled as her nose wrinkled.

Jia Hao became speechless when he heard that. Although he was able to understand the words and language of this world, he never had experience writing these foreign letters.

Since it was his first time writing a new language, it was natural for his handwriting to appear shitty.

" Little Jia, You should take your time and learn some calligraphy. This handwriting...It\'s barely readable. Li Ruo looked at Jia Hao and smiled lightly.

" Everyone, I admit the handwriting is not very good." Ruo Chanzi shook his head. " However, I would like you to read all the answers."

" Because all of them were correct."

" What?"

Cai Yunhai was shocked when he heard that. " You mean, He wrote all the answers correctly? All of them?"

" Indeed." Ruo Chanzi looked at Jia Hao with a profound gaze. Cai Yunhai looked at Jia Hao as he hurriedly asked. " What\'s the answer the question number three then?"

Li Ruo rolled her eyes. " Hmph, So your mind is still stuck in that question, huh? Do you want to embarrass him?"

" Huh? What do you mean?" Cai Yunhai snorted. " I am a righteous person who just wants to know the answer to the question. There is nothing wrong in that, is there?"

Jia Hao chuckled as he shook his head. " Patriarch Cai, Lady Li, nothing is embarrassing in this question.

" I can be small or long, but always hard. But holes need to be present to use me. What am I? Isn\'t that a key and lock?"

Cai Yunhai was stunned as he laughed out loud. " Haha! See? It\'s a key! A key...Nothing else, yeah."

Ruo Chanzi smiled wryly. " Indeed, It\'s a key. It\'s just that the question was slipping between my other questions by my mischievous younger brother."

" Anyway, You also matched one of the difficult couplets, Snowflakes flutter like plum blossoms."

" Thoughts are calm like flowing rosy clouds." Jia Hao answered lightly.

" However, I am even more intrigued. The last question of military supply, How did you do it?" Ruo Chanzi looked at Jia Hao. " Unlike others, I don\'t see a lot of rough calculations of a few pages though. And what are these strange symbols?"

Jia Hao looked at it and spoke, " Oh, That\'s basic algebra. It helps a lot in these types of maths, you know?"

" Algebra? What\'s that?" Ruo Chanzi looked at Jia Hao with confusion. Only then did Jia Hao realize the backwardness of math in this world.

" Uhh... It\'s just a special type of calculation method. I guess not many know that here." Jia Hao smiled wryly.

" Well, Then I hope you can share this method with me." Ruo Chanzi\'s eyes shone. " This method looks much more convenient than our long methods."

\' Of course, It is.\' Jia Hao sighed in his heart. However, he wasn\'t in hurry to share the algebraic formula so easily.

" Elder Ruo, I guess you should enjoy the atmosphere here. After all, we are not in a hurry, are we?"

" Haha! True!" Cai Yunhai laughed but suddenly, he paused when he saw the glance of Li Ruo and Cai Lingzhi. And then, he realized something.

" Uh...So, Jia Hao won the written examination, eh?"

" You are right, Patriarch Cai." Ruo Chanzi smiled.

Cai Yunhai exchanged glances with Li Ruo and then turned at Cai Lingzhi. " Haha, It\'s good, I guess. Lingzhi, Why don\'t you lead Jia Hao to the...Designed room for him?"

" Ah, That..." Cai Lingzhi came back to her senses as she understood the implications. Looking at Jia Hao, she smiled. " Brother Jia, Come with me and let the adults discuss among themselves."

" Yes?" Jia Hao could feel the shift in everyone\'s mood. But before he could think anything else, he got dragged away by Cai Lingzhi to another room.

The room was luxurious, and Jia Hao sat there dumbfounded. He was alone, with plates of exotic fruit and wine before him. As he was about to eat one, the door opened as a figure stepped in.

" We met again, Young Master Jia."

Jia Hao heard the familiar voice. Yet, instead of warmth and gentleness, it was like the northern wind, cold and dignified. Raising his head, Jia Hao felt a shiver.

" Miss Yixue?"

Cai Yixue sat before Jia Hao with a calm and collected expression, with her eyes like a pond of cold water, judging Jia Hao from top to bottom.

" Let me start the discussion on marriage then." She spoke in a cold voice.

Jia Hao: "???"
