Lian Hua, in a daze, handed over the gold and said blankly, "Oh, try biting it to see if it tastes like gold?" Can this be a dream? She hadn't come back to her senses yet.
Zhang Qing watched with a smile as the master and servants of Canglan Court went about their actions, standing aside and remaining silent. He had come to understand that Master Lian was truly genuine, straightforward, and endearingly sincere, doing whatever came to mind without any thought of disguise.
Serving such a master wouldn't be too tiring; at least there was no need to guess and interpret hidden meanings. Understanding the words at face value was the way to go, complicating things would only lead to misunderstanding.
