Jiang Wang almost got his nose pinched, and he immediately became furious.

He called out from behind the door, "Madam, the Jiang family has invited their young master back. Let him come out and speak. You can't make decisions on your own."

He didn't expect to be turned away right away. Are these people crazy?

"What are you barking about, you dog! If you bark again, I'll pour water on your heads!"

Qin Niangzi's voice came from the courtyard.

The servant who followed scratched his head. "Steward, what do we do now? If we keep banging like this, it'll attract the neighbors, and I'm afraid that woman inside will start talking nonsense again!"

He was out running around, but he heard the rumors about the Jiang family recently.

We finally found this family, but now we can't even get in the door.

"Break down the door! This is a Jiang family matter, and it's none of anyone else's business!" Butler Jiang gritted his teeth in anger; he had never seen such a difficult person.

"Breaking into a private residence in broad daylight, what are you trying to do? You're robbing me!"

Lin Shuyun had just returned from outside.

“Mrs. Lin, I advise you not to be ungrateful. All the young masters and young ladies are Jiang’s people, only you are not. If you can persuade them to go back, I can put in a good word for you with the old master and the old lady. You should think this through.”

When the gentle approach failed, Butler Jiang resorted to force.

"This is absolutely hilarious. Who can prove we're from the Jiang family? Just because you say so doesn't mean everyone in the world with the surname Jiang belongs to you." Lin Shuyun looked at Butler Jiang.

What a fine dog! He tried to force his way in with just a few people. He's got some nerve.

Butler Jiang shouted into the courtyard, "Young Master Changtian, the master wants you to go home! You should think carefully. If you don't go back now, who knows what might happen to your family later!"

Lin Shuyun's expression turned cold. "You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth. You've really given me face. Get out!"

He grabbed the large broom by the door and started hitting them, deliberately targeting the spots that hurt.

The dozen or so people were beaten so badly they were grimacing, and they had nowhere to hide, so they could only slink away.

Lin Shuyun put away the broom and said to Qin Niangzi, who had already opened the door to watch the commotion, "Aunt, next time if a dog comes to the door, please don't open it. You're not safe when I'm not here."

Lin Shuyun cautioned Qin Niangzi, saying that after all, there were old and young people in the family, and what if someone had bad intentions?

Madam Qin nodded. "Understood. What are we having for breakfast this morning?"

"I can do it, Auntie, you can go and rest."

Qin Niangzi didn't rest either; instead, she found a cloth, wrapped her hair up, and went to help out.

This meal consisted of fish. Lin Shuyun had bought fish specifically for the trip and then put it in her spatial storage when she returned. She then took the fish out of her spatial storage.

During mealtimes, coal briquettes were specially brought out, along with other small items.

Neither of them raised their heads while eating.

"Little sister, when did you bring this cat along? I haven't seen it anywhere along the way." Xiaoqing became more and more alarmed as she looked at it.

These two hadn't appeared along the way, nor when I was cleaning the room earlier.

How did it suddenly appear?

Old Xu ate without even looking up. "Your eyesight is really bad. I saw it all. Didn't you stop to eat something on the way? Are you blind?"

“Yes, Brother Xiaoqing, we’ve all seen it. You must have just missed it,” Gu Bao added.

He really liked coal balls, but he wouldn't let anyone touch them; he could only touch the little things.

This puppy is so cute. He used to have a puppy, but unfortunately, Old Madam Jiang didn't like it and beat it to death. Since then, he and his siblings have never kept any pets.

"Brother Xiaoqing, how come you have amnesia at such a young age?"

Now that you mention it, Xiaoqing is puzzled. Did he really not notice?

But why does this little puppy look so much like the wolf cub I saw in the mountains?

Looking down at the little creature wagging its tail happily, Xiaoqing immediately dismissed the idea. What wolf wags its tail like that?

Lin Shuyun looked at Old Man Xu and said, "Old man, why haven't you been going out lately? It's so quiet, which isn't like you."

It seems that the old man has become quiet all of a sudden since we came to Shengjing.

Before, when I was out, I couldn't stay still; I couldn't stay indoors for even a day.

“This place is too big. I’m afraid I’ll get lost if I go out. Besides, aren’t those people from the Jiang family keeping an eye on us? I have a feeling that if I go out, I’ll get a beating with a sack over my head!” Old Xu said, looking at Jiang Changtian with concern.

"Your cheap dad is completely unreliable; he's obviously a good-for-nothing at home."

Jiang Changtian didn't react much; after all, that wasn't his father.

"Forget it, if none of you are going out, we won't go out either. We'll celebrate properly when my husband gets into Luming Academy."

Lin Shuyun went out these past two days mainly to figure out a way to make money. The money doesn't have to be much, but it has to be enough to get by.

She's broke now; she can't even afford to buy some good food or go out for fun.

The housing prices in Shengjing, in particular, are outrageous.

……

……

Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye, and today is the day for Luming Academy to select students.

Lin Shuyun got up very early, made Jiang Changtian wear the new clothes she had made, cooked him noodles, and then the whole family saw him off at the academy gate.

Lin Shuyun liked Jiang Changtian when he wore a moon-white dress embroidered with bamboo. Standing there, he looked like a handsome young gentleman, giving off a feeling of unparalleled elegance and refinement.

It's a pity her face is disguised; although she looks good now, it's not as stunning as her original appearance.

As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and Jiang Changtian, dressed in this outfit, still attracted a lot of attention in the crowd.

Unfortunately, they hadn't been there long when they heard that annoying sound.

"Brother Xiaoqing, Brother Changtian, what are you doing here?"

"I see, you just happened to be passing by, didn't you? What a coincidence."

Chen Ting and the others also brought Chen Jingfeng here. In order not to waste time, they got up in the middle of the night and came over.

I was yawning because I was sleepy when I looked up and saw a familiar face.

Jiang Changtian ignored Chen Ting and instructed Lin Shuyun, "It will probably take a day. After I go in, don't wait outside. Go home first."

"Don't worry." Lin Shuyun touched the bamboo on his sleeve.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ting took the initiative to come closer. "Brother Changtian, are you also taking the exam? But when I asked you before, you clearly said that you didn't have any official title!"

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of everyone around, and they all looked at Jiang Changtian.

Among those in line was a young man in fine clothes who immediately began to mock, "Without official rank, does someone like you deserve to come to Luming Academy? Are you playing house? Did you get in through some back door?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Niangzi was furious. She glared at Chen Ting and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? What's it to you?"

She gets angry as soon as she sees this woman.
