Lu Yundi frowned slightly and said seriously: "Studying is for understanding, not for wealth. Now that you understand this truth, you must study hard and live up to the expectations of your family."

Yan Canglan nodded, indicating that he would keep it in mind. He recited the Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Names, and Thousand Character Classic. Lu Yundi was surprised and admired his learning ability. If Yan Canglan worked hard, he would definitely achieve academic success.

Ji Yunlin said that Yan Canglan had a talent for studying and that he would be able to catch up with the progress of the clan school in the family within two days. He also mentioned that Yan Canglan's handwriting needed to be improved. Lu Yundi thanked Ji Yunlin for his patient teaching of Yan Canglan, and then said to Yan Canglan: "Mr. Ji has high expectations for you. You must cherish this opportunity and study hard."

Lu Yundi then asked, "Mr. Ji, how do you think the young master's handwriting can be improved?"

Ji Yunlin thought for a moment and said, "Young Master's handwriting needs more practice, especially the pen power needs to be more stable. In addition, Young Master can copy more works of calligraphy masters to enhance his calligraphy foundation."

Lu Yundi nodded in agreement. She turned to Yan Canglan and said, "Mr. Ji is absolutely right. You must follow his instructions and practice calligraphy hard. I believe you will be able to achieve better results."

Yan Canglan nodded seriously, indicating that he would work hard. Lu Yundi looked at Yan Canglan, feeling very pleased.

Yan Canglan is no longer the naughty boy, but has gradually grown into a responsible and talented man.

At this time, Hongying walked into the study and whispered to Lu Yundi, "Madam, it's late at night. You and the young master should go to bed early." Lu Yundi looked at the night outside the window, nodded, and said to Yan Canglan, "Let's go, let's go to bed early too. We have to get up early to study tomorrow."

After the class was over, he turned to the servant and said, "Go and send Master Ji back to his residence safely. Be careful and take good care of him along the way. Don't be careless at all."

The servant immediately responded, took the lantern, and led Ji Yunlin along the path in the night.

Lu Yundi then turned around and continued to accompany Yan Canglan back to Qingfeng Tower.

Yan Canglan walked beside his mother Lu Yundi, and excitedly expressed his praise for Ji Yunlin.

"Mother, you don't know how vivid Master Ji's lectures are." Yan Canglan's tone was full of admiration. "Although his appearance is not flattering, his teaching method is fascinating. Every knowledge point he explains can be explained with real-life examples, which makes people understand it at once. I have never met such a talented master."

Lu Yundi smiled as he listened to his son's description and said softly, "Master Ji does have some accomplishments in teaching."

Yan Canglan interrupted his mother anxiously: "But mother, do you know? I used to think that Master Ji was able to pass the exam because his family was rich and bribed the judges. But I think that Master Ji is a real talent and he definitely deserves the title of Jieyuan."

Lu Yundi shook his head gently: "Yunlan, do you know how strict the evaluation of Jieyuan is? It is not something that can be bought with money. Moreover, as far as I know, Master Ji's family is not rich, where did he get the money to buy Jieyuan?"

Yan Canglan said excitedly: "That's right! I also think that Master Ji couldn't have bought the title of top scholar. Today in class, I paid special attention to what Master Ji said. His explanation was profound and easy to understand, which gave me a new understanding of many difficult questions. How could such a master buy his honor with money?"

A trace of admiration flashed in Yan Canglan's eyes, and he whispered to Lu Yundi: "Mother, you may not know that Master Ji's childhood story is actually very touching."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly and motioned Yan Canglan to continue.

Yan Canglan was immersed in the memories of the past, and he slowly said: "Ji Yunlin was born in a poor village, where the living conditions were very difficult. His parents were ordinary farmers, and there were many brothers and sisters in the family, so the life pressure was very high. Despite this, Master Ji's parents still attached great importance to his education."

Lu Yundi nodded, expressing his understanding: "This shows that Master Ji's parents are very far-sighted."

Yan Canglan continued, "When Master Ji was a child, life in the village was very difficult. Every household did not have enough food, but the neighbors in the village took good care of him. Even if they themselves were not full, they would share food with him. Ji Yunlin has always remembered this kindness."

Lu Yundi said with emotion: "Such an environment can indeed train a person's will."

Yan Canglan said, "Yes, Master Ji has been very hardworking since he was young. He helped others with chores and recited books while carrying manure. His perseverance was touching. He said that he wanted to change his fate through his own efforts and repay those who helped him."

Lu Yundi asked curiously, "Then how did he get the title of Jieyuan?"

Yan Canglan smiled and said, "This is due to his diligence and intelligence. Master Ji studied very hard. He often locked himself in his room and studied for a whole day. He was good at summarizing and thinking, and he digested and absorbed the knowledge in the books as his own wisdom. In addition, he was eloquent and his explanations were very clear and people could understand them at once."

Lu Yundi laughed and said, "So, Master Ji's title of first place is well deserved."

Yan Canglan nodded: "That's right. Moreover, he also attributed his success to those who had helped him. He said that if it weren't for the love and care of those neighbors, he might have given up long ago."

Lu Yundi said with emotion: "People like Ji Yunlin are indeed worthy of our admiration. He is not only smart and hardworking, but also knows how to be grateful. Such qualities are so rare and precious."

Lu Yundi was secretly delighted. She was keenly aware of the change in Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin's attitude towards her. This subtle change was like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, silent and quiet, but it caused ripples in her mood.

This change was not accidental, but because they saw her sincere efforts to cure her brother Lu Zhiwei, they developed a new understanding of her.

After Yan Canglan arrived at Qingfeng Tower, his wet nurse, Nanny Zhou, felt sorry for him studying late at night and brought him a bowl of chicken noodle soup, which he ate hungrily.

Yan Canglan ate noodles silently. Nanny Zhou sat beside him, looking at him with a worried look on her face.

"Master, listen to me, your body won't be able to bear it if you stay up late to study like this." Nanny Zhou couldn't help but speak.

Yan Canglan put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at Nanny Zhou, and said softly: "Nanny, I know you are worried, but I study not for anything else, but to understand the truth and reason. Moreover, I also do it for my sister Yan Shuqin."

Upon hearing this, Nanny Zhou's eyes became moist. She wiped away her tears and said, "Master, you are so attentive to your sister. I am really touched as a nanny. But I can't bear to watch Madam Lu's treatment of Yan Shuqin."
