Since Lu Qing had spoken, naturally Zhu Yu had no objections. She didn't stand on ceremony with the governmental officials outside; she made herself at home, took some paper and pen from the table, wrote a list, and handed it to the governmental officials, asking them to purchase items for her.
The items bought back, in addition to pastries, included some small toys like the Lu Ban Lock and Nine Linked Rings, even a throwing jar with bamboo arrows, and several books.
After sending away the governmental officials, Zhu Yu began to move the items to her room, when she suddenly remembered that out of courtesy, she should perhaps offer some to Lu Qing. Halfway through moving, she went to ask if he wanted any.
Of course, Lu Qing declined, but he was somewhat curious, so he went over to take a look and found that the items she had the governmental officials purchase were actually books on cultivating the mind and preserving health.
