Chapter 357: Are You Serious?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Does my mother truly believe I can survive and have a place at the southern border based on my performance in the capital all these years?
Isn’t she thinking too highly of me? I’ll lose even if I go against Qian Jiyun with all I have, right?
“Go and investigate the lady Qian Jiyun brought back.”
“I’ve already sent people to investigate,” Wei Ran replied.
He seemed to have thought of something and looked up again.
“Don’t worry, Your Highness. I’ve already instructed the secret guards to retreat immediately if they discover anything amiss. We won’t let Prince Zhan Yun’s men discover us.”
Prince De nodded, indicating that he understood.
He did not want to become enemies with Qian Jiyun, nor did he want to get involved in those rotten things.
…
That night, dinner was served in Qiongzhi Courtyard.
The aroma wafted through the air as the two children sat on either side of Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue at the table.
“Mother, you haven’t eaten with us in a long time. The food is so delicious,” Qian Yizheng said as he chewed on a piece of braised pork.
An Jiuyue chuckled and patted the child’s head.
“It’s my fault. It won’t happen again.”
“Mother is not at fault. Rong’er and I are grownups now. We can take care of ourselves.”
Qian Yizheng did not think his mother was in the wrong. She had many things to do. They could not pester her like before, right?
He would not be a good boy if he kept pestering her.
“That’s right, Mother. He’s right. We still have to teach Lu’er to recite books.” Qian Yirong had always wanted to teach his younger brother to recite books. He would probably never forget it.
Clink!
Qian Yiyun, who had been focused on eating, dropped her spoon when she heard what the child had said.
What did I just hear? My nephew wants to teach Lu’er, who just learned how to walk, to recite books? Are you serious? Are children nowadays so awesome?
Qian Jiyun chuckled.
The child was too hardworking and ambitious. As his father, he could not do anything about it either.
His smile vanished and he asked seriously, “Zheng’er, Rong’er, do you want to go to school?”
“Go to school?”
Although the two children had studied a lot, they were still unfamiliar with the word “school” because they had been living in the mountains.
They did not understand what “school” meant.
Qian Yirong looked at his brother and asked with a tender voice, “Brother, what is a school?”
Qian Yizheng was silent. He wanted to know too.
But had his brother forgotten that they were twins? How could he know something he did not know?
“Mother…”
He looked at An Jiuyue for help.
“A school is a place where you go to learn. There are many teachers there. They will teach you how to read and share more knowledge with you. Moreover, many children in the school will learn with you.”
An Jiuyue felt a little uncomfortable as she explained to her sons. She realized she had neglected these things.
