Why stay?

Of course, it is the picturesque scenery of Lingxia Village, the simple rural customs and the omnipresent warmth and warmth of the Lu family.

Anyone who has lived in the Lu family feels comfortable both physically and mentally.

Chi Li didn't want to explain more, but just told Lu Ke'er that the decision to stay was made after careful consideration.

"Ke'er, you need them. The Lu family's assets will increase in the future, and there will be covetous people. Whether it is the Lu family's assets or people, they need someone to protect them." Chi Li said, "Everyone said that they will not sell their bodies, but only sign a contract with you. You can decide how much to pay them."

Only then did Lu Ke'er understand.

On the one hand, Huanyan and the others like the life in Lingxia Village, but the main reason is that they want to repay her for saving their lives.

"Okay. If they want to stay, then let them stay." Lu Ke'er knew that Chi Li's concerns were correct. With the advancement of her various industries, the Lu family would become a piece of fat meat in the eyes of some powerful people in the future. Without means of self-protection, she would not be able to keep a mountain of gold even if she fought hard.

"Then I thank you on their behalf."

That night, the Lu family had a sumptuous dinner. Ji said that they wanted to celebrate Lu Mingxi's admission to school.

Being valued by the whole family, little Lu Mingxi's face turned red with excitement.

During the banquet, everyone prepared gifts for the little kid. Lu Tianning gave Lu Mingxi a set of four treasures of the study, and Ji's gift was a brand new robe. Lu Ke'er gave him a set of exquisite tangram puzzles, and even Chi Li and Qiu Yu each had a small gift.

Most gifts are not uncommon in daily life, but this tangram is the first time I have seen it. After Lu Keer introduced how to play it, not only Lu Mingxi, but even adults couldn't help but admire it.

"I didn't expect that just a few pieces of wood could be used to create so many patterns. This thing is great." Lu Tianning nodded repeatedly, "This thing is indeed very suitable for children to play with."

Lu Mingxi also loves tangram.

He started to piece together the puzzle on the spot. One moment he pieced together a fox, the next he pieced together a big tree. The jigsaw puzzle changed into various forms in his hands.

Lu Ke'er discovered another great advantage of Lu Mingxi.

This kid's imagination is extremely strong.

February 18th was the first day of school for the freshman class at Yiming Academy. Early in the morning, the entire Lu family went out to send Lu Mingxi to school.

Lu Tianning was able to throw away his crutches and walk a few steps. He didn't want to miss his son's important day.

The Lu family's movement also alarmed many villagers. Most of them envied and blessed the Lu family, except for Jin Feng and a few others.

Jin Feng stared at the Lu family's carriage as it drove away, her heart filled with jealousy.

Ma Dani came out and glared at her fiercely.

"Jin Feng, what's the point of staring at the Lu family all day long? Just do what you should do!"

"Mom, aren't you angry? How did the Lu family become rich and go to school? They..."

"Bang!" Madanyi threw the firewood in her hand to the ground, straightened up, pointed at Jinfeng's nose and started cursing.

"Why did I give birth to such a troublesome girl like you? The Lu family is prosperous, that's the Lu family's good fortune. If we keep an eye on them, can we live a good life? Jinfeng, in a few months, you will get married. You should think about how to live in your husband's family. Don't worry about the rest!"

"Mom, I don't understand! How did you change so quickly? Didn't you hate the Lu family before?" Jin Feng felt wronged and angry. If she didn't know her mother so well, she would have thought her mother had been replaced.

"Yes, I, your mother, was also unconvinced and even jealous of them! But, I almost died once. After coming back from the gates of hell, I suddenly understood many things that I had never understood before. Everyone says that I am sarcastic and mean, but that's because your father is not often at home. There are only the two of us in our family. If I am not stronger, we will be bullied by others." Ma Dani seemed sad and annoyed, "I am always picky and strong-willed, and I always dislike Li Niang. It's nothing more than jealous that she has a good man. Later, the Lu family fell into decline, and I was happy because I felt that there were women who were more miserable than me. Now think about it, it's really funny. The Lu family doesn't care about our opinion of them at all. When I was sick, the Lu family saved me regardless of the past. I won't say that I am grateful, but at least I can't target them like before. Jinfeng, you are my daughter, and your current temper is also spoiled by me. This is my fault, and I admit it! But now I warn you, if you don't change, don't blame me when you suffer in the future!"

After that, she ignored her daughter and went back to the house to work.

Jinfeng's face turned pale and red.

She didn't understand why her mother, who had doted on her in every way, didn't stand by her, why Lu Ke'er could live so comfortably even after her engagement was broken off, and why she didn't feel very happy when she was about to marry Su Zhengqi.

She used to be so jealous of Lu Ke'er's upcoming marriage to a scholar, and she was so jealous of Lu Ke'er's fiancé being a well-mannered scholar. But now, when everything is about to become hers, she is not happy!

She thought about it and finally found a reason.

Although Su Qizheng was good, he was too ordinary in front of those noblemen who often visited the Lu family. Otherwise, why couldn't he even enter Yiming Academy?

I heard that the dean of Yiming Academy is from the capital. It would be great if Su Qizheng could enroll. It would be a great honor to tell others that I have a fiancé who is studying in the Tongsheng class of Yiming Academy.

I really don't understand. Why can that illiterate Lu family kid enter Yiming Academy when even Su Qizheng can't?

Jinfeng became angrier and angrier as she thought about it. She rolled her eyes and went back to her room to pack up her things before leaving, completely ignoring Ma Dani's scolding behind her back.

"You damn girl, where are you going now? There's a lot of work to do at home, come back here!"

…………

After sending Lu Mingxi to the academy, Lu Ke'er met Wei Jinzhi again at the gate of the academy.

This time, she finally learned Wei Jinzhi's identity, because the teachers and students around him called him the dean.

"Brother Wei, I never thought that you are the dean of Yiming Academy." Lu Ke'er secretly blamed herself for her vision.

"Haha, the fact that I hit it off with Miss Lu right away has nothing to do with whether I'm the dean or not?" Wei Jinzhi joked.

"Brother Wei is right." Lu Ke'er also smiled, "But I really admire Brother Wei. Being able to come to such a remote place to teach and educate people is not something that ordinary people can do."

"The more remote the place, the more it needs people to educate it." Wei Jinzhi said seriously, "Besides, the scenery here is beautiful and makes people linger."

Lu Tianning on the side nodded repeatedly.

He settled in Lingxia Village because he was attracted by the mountains and rivers here. If it weren't for the accidental fall off the cliff, their Lu family should have enlightened Lu Mingxi long ago.

However, it's not too late.

"I'll leave Mingxi in the care of your hospital." Lu Tianning bowed solemnly to Wei Jinzhi.

Wei Jinzhi hurriedly returned the greeting: "Uncle Lu, there is no need to be so polite. Mingxi is studying in the academy, you can rest assured."

"Although this child can recognize some words and understand some principles, he has not read many books. In the future, please supervise him more, teach him strictly, and criticize him when necessary." Lu Tianning has always believed that a strict teacher can produce an excellent student. His own knowledge is limited. If he wants Lu Mingxi to succeed in his studies in the future, he must find a famous teacher.

And the Wei Jinzhi in front of him is undoubtedly such a famous teacher.

"Uncle Lu, you are too polite. Miss Lu and I are friends. Besides, Xiaoxi is a smart and polite child, and I like her very much." Wei Jinzhi did not hide his friendliness and kindness towards Lu Ke'er. Such a girl, her own ability and talent are admirable, and she should not be measured by worldly eyes.

Lu Tianning didn't think about it in other ways.

His daughter not only makes friends with learned people like Wei Jinzhi, but also several noblemen from the capital often appear in the Lu family. He went from being surprised at first to being calm now, as it has become commonplace.

At this time, a sharp female voice interrupted: "I was wondering how Lu Mingxi could enter the academy. It turns out that it was because the dean knew the Lu family and opened a back door for the Lu family."
