Chapter 243: The Branded Liquor
Gu Chaoyan was not worried.
Zhou Huaijin was taking her side, and it would be impossible for County Princess Anxi to bribe the teachers of Saint College to set her up, because she was able to complete the task without any mistakes. She was very confident that the judges would be unable to find any faults.
Well, it would be great if Zhou Huaijin could be present to keep an eye out for the examination, so she did not have to waste any time in fighting against those people.
Seeing Gu Chaoyan’s confident look, Zhou Huaijin could not help but ask, “Which three of the skills are you going to take for the examination?”
He could help her to make some preparations. He had to make sure that she was making full preparations for the examination.
Gu Chaoyan thought for a while and then decided that she was able to accomplish any of the six skills after all, but... If what she needed was to prove her abilities, Gu Chaoyan was thinking about picking the ones she was best at.
Among all the six skills, she was going to pick shooting, music and calligraphy.
Okay, those three would do.
So Gu Chaoyan replied without much hesitation. “Shooting, music, and calligraphy.”
The moment Gu Chaoyan was done talking, Zhou Huaijin looked really surprised. He believed that Yan would be good at music and calligraphy, but shooting & riding? When did Yan learn how to ride and shoot? She was not given any opportunities to learn any of these at the Gu Mansion!
The land of the Saint Divine Land was taken because they had great riders. The King also encouraged the folk of the country to learn to ride and shoot, but riding and shooting required not only horses but also s.p.a.ce! It was common for men to master the skill, but for girls... Only those from huge families were able to learn to ride and shoot.
County Princess Anxi, for example, picked up the skill when she was little.
If Yan was out there competing in this skill with her, then Yan was definitely going to run into County Princess Anxi. By that time, she would definitely run into Yan....Yan would probably have trouble with it too.
“Yan, are you sure you are going to take the riding and shooting?” Zhou Huaijin asked with a serious tone. He was actually quite confused, but he had no idea how to utter the questions.
For example, even Gu Ruxue did not get the chance to ride and shoot. So Gu Chaoyan, who was always disgraced, would never get the chance either.
However, he didn’t ask anything more. He believed that soon, Yan was going to give him a clear explanation.
Gu Chaoyan nodded. If she decided to stand out in the examination, she had to pick the ones she was best at.
Zhou Huaijin said nothing more, but started to get his men to get the tools ready for her.
At this moment, the sound of knocking arose from outside.
Manager Song entered with a look of excitement. He was still holding the jug Gu Chaoyan had sent to the kitchen. He got so excited that he forgot to greet her, but asked directly, “Lady Chaoyan, where did you get the wine?”
“How is the taste?” Gu Chaoyan asked. She was looking forward to receiving feedback.
She knew how to make a brewery, but she was not sure how well she could achieve it.
The reason why she decided to make a brewery was only because she added magical water inside. The magical water was a great thing. As for the taste.... she was okay with it herself before bringing it here for a taste test.
Now Manager Song was here for the feedback, and she was a little bit nervous. She was worried that the taste would be a disappointment.
Manager Song nodded constantly and said with excitement. “The liquor is very tasty! I have not tasted such great wine for ages! I am sure that this liquor would bring down the branded liquor of Restaurant Jixian.”
“The branded liquor of Restaurant Jixian?”
