Chapter 187: A Strange School
"Old Matriarch, I don't think we need to make a decision so quickly. Xiaohuan is still young and should be studying. I think this matter can be discussed later!" The man who looked similar to Zheng Yun stood up at this moment and said.
The old matriarch looked at this person with displeasure, then said: "I just said this matter, and this matter is decided. Whoever opposes is going against me. Do you not understand?"
Hearing this, the person just now was so scared that he knelt on the ground directly and hurriedly said: "Sorry, Old Matriarch, the child was abrupt!"
Then the old matriarch scanned everyone present and said: "Does anyone else have any opinions?"
The other people all hurriedly kept their heads down and didn't dare to speak. Even the old matriarch's own biological son had suffered a setback; at this time, who would dare to go up and touch the mold?
I still wanted to say something, but was glared at by the old matriarch, which scared me into holding back my words. This was simply not giving people a way to live. I was arranged to live like this, and even the major events of my life had already been arranged.
I lay in my room in depression. Although this house was more comfortable than any place I had ever lived in, I always felt very disappointed.
This place was very good, that's true, but at least I had friends I knew on my side. I didn't know how Zhang Wu and Zhang Yinuo and the others were doing. After falling into the moat before, my phone was also lost, and now I didn't have their numbers and couldn't contact them at all. Fortunately, there was a computer here where I could log in to QQ and WeChat, but the awkward thing was that because I hadn't logged in to WeChat for a long time, I actually had to verify it. My earliest phone number was gone, and I couldn't verify it at all. QQ was the same, which meant I couldn't contact them at all now. I could only try to see if I could find back QQ and WeChat after getting a card.
During my few days in the Zheng family, I roughly understood the form of the Zheng family. The Zheng family was basically divided into three factions. One was the eldest son, which was the person who was cold and mocking to Zheng Yun at that time. This eldest son was named Zheng Hong, and he had a son named Zheng Tao. This faction of Zheng Hong had always been a popular figure in the Zheng family, and they were also the people most likely to inherit the Zheng family's business.
The second son was named Zheng Han, who had always been abroad, and he had a son named Zheng Yi. Zheng Han and Zheng Hong had always been at odds, and they often had differences of opinion at home. There were also many industries at home handed over to Zheng Han to manage, and he was also the person most likely to snatch Zheng Hong's successor position.
The third son was Zheng Yun. Zheng Yun was different from the first two. Zheng Yun only had a small branch company of the Zheng family under his hand, and basically had no power in his hands, and had no thoughts about the industry. It could be said that he had no desires. He had a daughter named Zheng Wei, who was currently still in school, and was the person least likely to inherit the Zheng family's industry.
During the period when Xiaohuan and I came, Zheng Tao and Zheng Yi both came to look for us, wanting to get familiar with us, but except for me, Xiaohuan had the same expression to everyone else, and I didn't intend to get entangled with them. Mainly, I didn't want to participate in the struggle for power and profit. They came to look for Xiaohuan and me, clearly wanting to use us to suppress the other side, to realize their status in the Zheng family.
In the middle, the old matriarch talked to me alone, mainly investigating my previous background. For these people in the upper class, it was too simple to know a person's information. For my previous information, the old matriarch didn't care much, just warned me not to use my previous name for the time being. The old matriarch got me a new identity. I am now called Zheng Yun, an orphan without parents, adopted by Xiaohuan's parents in the Zheng family. Xiaohuan is my foster sister, and the old matriarch is my foster grandmother. With this identity, I could safely go to school in the capital and be a rich kid.
And the old matriarch arranged studies for us. To be honest, I didn't intend to go to school here, because I wanted to go back, but thinking about the promise I made to Grandpa Zheng that I would protect Xiaohuan, it wasn't easy to walk away. Because the situation in the Zheng family wasn't clear yet, and it wasn't certain whether Xiaohuan was safe or in danger here, I couldn't leave for the time being, so I prepared to shelve the plan of going back for now.
Xiaohuan and I each went to school. Before, Xiaohuan also learned some knowledge from me. She wasn't repelled by learning, and she was exceptionally happy knowing she was going to school with me. Only what made her unhappy was that she and I weren't in the same class. She honestly went to the third year of junior high, while I continued my third year of high school.
It was December now, and the first school year of the third year of high school was almost over.
Looking at the long-lost school, I felt exceptionally comfortable in my heart. Only what I didn't expect was that I would actually go to an aristocratic school one day. This school was a famous aristocratic institution in the capital. Those without status at home couldn't go to this school at all. This school was simply a gathering place for rich second generations.
Because of the Zheng family, the principal and the head teacher were exceptionally polite to me. The teachers here were exceptionally polite to every student, mainly because they were afraid. After all, the forces behind these little ancestors weren't simple. If they offended them by accident, their days afterward would be finished.
I followed the head teacher before me to the classroom absent-mindedly. Passing by every classroom, I found that it was simply chaotic inside, not at all like a classroom, but rather like a vegetable market, noisy and chaotic. There was everything inside, playing cards, sleeping, putting on makeup, couples hugging and kissing, everything. And the teacher on the stage was lecturing on his own as if nothing had happened before the blackboard. It seemed that they most likely didn't dare to manage it.
Regarding such a school, I was truly helpless, but it didn't matter. In any case, it was just to pass the time.
I followed the head teacher to my own class, Class 6 of the third year of high school. However, what surprised me was that this classroom was exceptionally quiet. Although very few people listened to the lecture below, everyone was exceptionally tacit in not making a sound. Except for the teacher lecturing on the stage.
The head teacher said apologetically to the teacher who was lecturing at this time: "Sorry, sorry to disturb you, Teacher Zhang!"
After saying this, the head teacher walked to the podium, knocked on the table lightly and said: "Students, today a new student has come to our class. His name is Zheng Yun. Everyone should help the new student more in the future!"
The students in the classroom all turned their gazes to me, with expressions of surprise, and all began to discuss. The originally quiet classroom instantly became noisy.
Just at this moment, suddenly a shout: "What are you arguing about? You're disturbing my sleep!" ===== CHAPTER 188 =====
