The two gentlemen nearby also waved, and the other students made way.

Ji Shichen extended his hand to Su Yunzhu, and she held his arm. As the two of them walked into the private school, their eyes swept across the faces of the students intentionally or unintentionally!

But I didn’t see the appearance in my memory!

Ji Shichen didn't have a deep impression of Ji Yifei, nor could he remember what he looked like, but he thought that the uncle-nephew relationship might give him some guidance, but he had no clue.

Su Yunzhu has been to the Ji family many times and has met Ji Yifei once or twice by chance. This child has clear and sharp eyes, but hidden depth!

But a group of students were crowded in the front. Ji Yifei, who used to be low-key, didn't like to show off in front of others. Now that he had lost his power, he was even less noticed.

Fortunately, there were some students who admired his knowledge. They watched the teacher and the Marquis go away and said to Ji Yifei, "Yifei, let's catch up quickly! We must show our faces in front of the Marquis and his wife as soon as possible. What if we are noticed by them?"

Ji Yifei looked at the figure disappearing into the distance. The other party had just glanced among the students and did not notice him.

Coupled with what happened to the Ji family before... Ji Yifei felt very complicated.

He maintained a neutral attitude towards his stepmother, and he was also aware that the other party was using him to increase his brother's power!

He also knew that his father didn't think highly of him at all!

Ji Yifei's biological mother was a loyal weaver girl, but unfortunately she did not live long and was killed by her third aunt when she was pregnant with her younger brother.

Until now, the Third Aunt is still living a carefree life in the Ji family...!

He was powerless now!

He just wants to study hard and get a good degree!

"Forget it. If the Marquis really thinks highly of my family, he wouldn't have separated from my father so early. If he really likes me, he wouldn't have let the Ji family... In short, it has nothing to do with me." After Ji Yifei said this, he turned and left.

The student sighed twice and shook his head helplessly, "What a stubborn guy."

Afterwards, only Ji Yifei was gone, the others followed the gentleman in the yard, watching the conversation between the gentleman and the Marquis!

It was quiet outside the door, with only heads poking out and looking in curiously.

Su Yunzhu glanced outside the door and saw that the students all shrank their heads back again!

Su Yunzhu couldn't help but smile and asked, "Sir, do you have the list of these children?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the students outside the door suddenly became excited!

Ready, ready!

Ji Shichen also said, "Sir, thank you for your help."

Hearing this, Mr. Hao said excitedly, "No trouble, no trouble! I'll get it right away."

Soon, the private school's student list appeared in Su Yunzhu's hands.

Ji Shichen moved closer and watched with her.

They are indeed the children of ordinary businessmen and fourth or fifth rank officials. They are not very noticeable, but they have also achieved some success!

The children of officers and soldiers are sent here only if they are very naughty, otherwise they will be sent to better academies!

"How is it? Forgive me for asking this question, but is the Marquis' Mansion recently..." Mr. Hao stopped talking.

Normally he was talkative, both to students and parents, but now, facing the noble Marquis of the dynasty, the shock on his face was beyond words!

This is the most glorious moment of my life.

Ji Shichen looked up and said without denying, "Yes, we are planning to find a child to adopt."

"Our son has a bad temper and is not fit for important tasks. Sir, you should know that the status of the Marquis' Mansion requires people of noble character to take charge."

Su Yunzhu closed the roster and said, "Call a few children who the teacher thinks have good character to come and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Hao was shocked. He really came!

He stood up and bowed solemnly, then walked out, glanced around, and pointed to ten children to come in.

The children are divided into two rows. The children in the first row look handsome and dignified, while the children in the second row are shy and introverted!

When Mr. Hao came in, there was a hint of surprise on his face.

He wanted to find Ji Yifei among the ten people, but he didn't see him!

When Su Yunzhu saw these ten children, she was stunned.

After taking a quick look, none of them was what Su Yunzhu was looking for!

She looked at Ji Shichen and said, "My Lord, what do you think of these children?"

The ten students were terrified and stood with proper postures, their eyes lowered to avoid offending others.

Ji Shichen saw what she meant and said calmly, "It's all right. Write down your names first! We'll talk to you individually when we've thought it through."

Mr. Hao nodded, quickly wrote it down and presented it.

Ten students went out.

In the room, Su Yunzhu just felt bored, and her expression looked very unnatural when she looked at Mr. Hao!

They couldn't just say that they were here to find Ji Yifei, right?

After all, Huo Qianyi was only observing and being friendly in secret, and she didn't know any of the relationship or the details, which was something Ji Yifei himself didn't know at all!

Su Yunzhu was extremely depressed, and stood up and said, "I'm going out to get some fresh air."

There are so many strange children here.

Taohong, Liulu and other maids followed suit, and the master and servants walked back and forth in the private school, attracting many students' surprised attention, who then timidly avoided them!

Su Yunzhu smiled at them, and they hid themselves away like shy boys.

"It looks quite free here." Su Yunzhu sighed.

Taohong agreed, "Yes ma'am, look over there?"

Su Yunzhu looked in the direction of the gesture and saw a slender young man walking back and forth in front of a window, holding a book in his hand and muttering something with full concentration!

Seeing this, Su Yunzhu looked around, motioned for them to guard the road, and then took Taohong and went there quietly.

As she got closer, Su Yunzhu stopped slightly!

All I could hear was the sound of someone reading aloud, "The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name..."

Su Yunzhu found it mysterious and turned around to look at Taohong with surprise. Taohong smiled and nodded in agreement!

The master and servant felt emotional, but they also knew that they shouldn't disturb them at this time, so they prepared to turn around and leave quietly.

Little did people know that Ji Yifei was also very sensitive to any disturbances around him!

He had just finished reading the second chapter when he looked up and suddenly saw the two figures. He closed the book and asked, "Is that my second aunt?"

Su Yunzhu paused, turned back and smiled awkwardly. They were about ten meters apart, so she could see clearly.

"Do you remember me?" Su Yunzhu said.

Ji Yifei said calmly, "Of course I remember. I have met Second Aunt."

He bowed and then turned and went into the house.

"..."

Such a cold attitude is exactly the same as Ji Shifeng in the past.

Su Yunzhu was a little discouraged and was about to leave. Ji Yifei came out of the house again, holding something in his hand, and ran over and said, "Second Aunt, these are for you!"

"I know that our family has let you down when you came to the Ji family to give me gifts before. I cannot repay you, so I can only keep them and return them to you."

"I will repay the rest of what I owe you after I pass the imperial examination. Please forgive my father and stepmother for their foolishness and greed. I'm sorry if I have troubled you!"

Su Yunzhu looked at them in amazement. They were all small things she had forgotten, a cricket fighting tube, a precious brush and inkstone, two calligraphy and paintings, etc.
