~7 min read 1,212 words

The white-bearded, white-haired old man listened, his eyes growing brighter and brighter.

"Kang Mengxian, your maternal granddaughter is a treasure!"

He couldn't help bursting into laughter, "These stories, I actually want to see and hear them."

"Today there is no class of hers; tomorrow afternoon is Yun chu's agriculture class. If you want to listen, come tomorrow afternoon." Ningguang said bluntly, the proud expression on her face impossible to hide.

"Hey, you old lady, Ying Ying counts as my half-disciple, and you Chun Hua Xue Yuan never call me over to teach."

Ningguang and Kang Mengxian exchanged a glance, the little fish...

Hooked!

"Your family is big and prosperous, unlike us; according to Yun chu's words, I am a lonely old widow, he is a retired old man, we have nothing to do, aside from these children we have no one else all day."

"You have such a big academy, where would you find time to come to our little place?"

As soon as Ningguang's words fell, Kang Mengxian's words over there picked up.

"Yes, Qing feng, the joint exam of the four great academies is coming up soon, right? Can you maintain second place this year?"

"Forget it, just guard your Qing feng Academy."

"Don't then blame our little academy for dragging you down if the students do poorly on the exam."

Kang Mengxian's seemingly kind tone, every sentence is pressuring the palace!

Qing feng looked at these two old fogeys, still the same as before, all full of scheming hearts, only he is an honest person!

"You two old fogeys, stop scheming against me, I came here voluntarily!"

……

Who could have imagined that the Qing Feng Da Ru, who outwardly looks like an immortal with wind and bone, would appear like this before familiar people?

"Nobody is forcing you, either." Ningguang raised her teacup and gave him a cold glance.

"And..."

"Our Chun Hua Xue Yuan is not somewhere you can just come and go as you please."

"How, you still want to set up an exam?" Qing feng sounded like he heard a joke, not mentioning other places, he Qing feng wants to go wherever he pleases, he hasn't heard that any place requires an exam.

His reputation already surpasses myriad.

"Your special... uh... what is it called?" Kang Mengxian looked toward Ningguang.

Ningguang thought for a moment, "Vanity."

"Yes, vanity, your special vanity is unacceptable!" Kang Mengxian finally finished his earlier words.

Qing feng was speechless...

These two old fogeys seem completely brainwashed; I can't understand what they're saying.

No way!

This Chun Hua Xue Yuan, he, has decided to come!

"Dean, when will we eat the sweet and sour spare ribs?" Kang Wen licked his lips, those sweet and sour spare ribs personally made by the Dean, the taste differs from the cook's, even if the Dean taught a little, it's still not right, lacking the essence of sweet and sour spare ribs.

"Cough cough!"

"Noon." Jiang Yunchu didn't beat around the bush, directly announcing the time.

"Yay!"

The children all jumped up; just now it was the joy of victory, this time it's the impulse for food.

"But..."

Jiang Yunchu looked at their excited expressions and had to remind them of a harsh reality.

"Those who didn't hit just now, no one gets two extra laps."

"Those who didn't make a move,..."

Jiang Yunchu looked at little Yue Yue, this girl didn't make a move, she's been waving flags and shouting, shaking willow branches, cheering everyone from behind.

"Run one lap."

"Mm, okay." Yue Yue the little girl reluctantly accepted this result, thinking of eating sweet and sour spare ribs at noon, her heart leapt with joy again.

Actually she's just four, many things are unfamiliar, but such days are much more fun than before, with so many people accompanying her.

"Kang Nai Xin, you hit me, you can rest."

Jiang Yunchu revealed the gentlest smile, her curved eyes like a crescent moon in the night sky, that malicious glint like stars, twinkling, carrying a bewitching quality.

Kang Nai Xin glanced at the looks everyone cast her way, she smiled a bit shyly, "I'll run together with everyone."

And everyone's gazes suddenly changed, each person's resolve grew much firmer.

"Fourth sister, awesome."

Kang Wen spoke, Kang Wu acted, patting Kang Nai Xin's shoulder.

Ning Hanmo had just finished a lap and came over, then gave her a thumbs-up, "Enough, brother."

Kang Zi Wei didn't speak, the two sisters shouldered each other and started running.

Yue Yue didn't understand what they were doing, still finding the willow branch in her hand more fun.

Jiang Yunchu's plan fell apart once again.

She suddenly realized that Nai Xin was a person of great wisdom; whether intentional or not, she always avoided traps and turned danger into auspiciousness.

"Morning class..."

She hadn't finished, but then she paused, unable to continue.

"Listen carefully!"

The six children all shouted out in unison.

"Hmm... smart." She curled her lips, laughed and shook her head, together with the children she seemed to have found the true essence of innate goodness.

The six children were in an unprecedentedly good state, even the usual troublemaker Kang Wen actually listened attentively for half a day.

And even the lively Yue Yue held back, not even getting up from her seat……

Until the bell rang, signaling the end of class!

"Yay, sweet and sour spare ribs, the young master is here!" Ning Hanmo shouted.

"The young master is here."

Kang Wen learned a phrase, and he even threw the big characters he had written in calligraphy class straight up into the sky.

Kang Wu looked at his brother, who seemed like an idiot, and really couldn't bear to watch.

"Brother, tonight, do you want to rewrite it?"

Kang Wen looked at the paper all over the floor, sighed silently, showing no emotion at all—his brother was so boring.

The two brothers, when they get along, are like twins.

When they dislike each other, they truly do.

"Hurry up and pick them up, don't forget, there are still those little gentlemen waiting to eat." Kang Zi Wei reminded.

Everyone squatted down, hastily picked up the paper Kang Wen had just thrown, tidied it up, and the six little rascals ran straight to the cafeteria.

"I want sweet and sour spare ribs, I want sweet and sour spare ribs." Kang Wen said.

Just……

Just a moment ago, his attention had been entirely on the sweet and sour spare ribs, watching it without moving; when he lifted his head, he saw Jiang Yunchu smiling at him.

"Meat and vegetables balanced, huh, I love eating greens." Kang Wen said, almost crying.

He had been hungry for two meals, and after eating pig feed for over ten days beforehand, he was really scared.

"Be good." Jiang Yunchu held back her laughter, first served him two kinds of vegetables, then gave him a big spoonful of sweet and sour spare ribs.

"Today it's pancakes, you wrap them yourself, eat as much as……"

She stopped, not finishing her sentence.

"How much to wrap."

"Absolutely no waste."

Watching the few behind her, one by one they smoothly followed along, she nodded in satisfaction.

Cherish food, reject waste, everyone has a responsibility, starting with me.
