Chapter 2841: Chapter 2841: Sanni Is Pregnant (1)
Yang Ruxin’s eyelid twitched slightly. She glanced at Ping Gonggong, but he lowered his eyes and didn’t look at her, so she could only muster a smile: "Welcome, Second Master."
Qi Wei’s lips twitched: "Second Master?"
"Yes." Yang Ruxin nodded, "Around here, we don’t usually call people Uncle, it’s too refined. We generally call older men ’Master’, and younger ones ’Uncle’."
"Alright then." Qi Wei nodded, "Second Master it is."
Yang Rufeng rubbed his nose; when it comes to earnestly deceiving people, he has to give it up to his big sister.
Thus, the current retired emperor officially moved into Dapu East Village. The small building was two houses away from Yang Ruxin’s place, ensuring both privacy and mutual care.
"Xiaofeng, can you stay home for the New Year?" Dong Wenxiu eagerly eyed her youngest son. Over the years, the children grew up one by one and left her side. Last year, Mengmeng and Zhou Xiao went to the Zhou Family, and Xiaofeng went to Beijing for studies. It’s been almost a year since she saw him.
"I’m afraid I can’t." Yang Rufeng appeared somewhat helpless. He was now apprenticed under Grandpa Shu, who, despite his usual amiable demeanor, was extraordinarily strict when it came to academic matters. This return was possible only because the Emperor allowed him a month’s leave, and when he goes back, he will certainly need to make up for the lost studies.
"Alright." Dong Wenxiu sighed, "But while you’re out there, don’t let yourself suffer."
"Rest assured, mother. I’m staying at the General Residence, with Gu Di handling everything perfectly." Yang Rufeng laughed, "Besides, Aunt takes good care of me."
"I know, I’m just saying a few words." Dong Wenxiu sighed but turned away to instruct Li Shuan, who accompanied her son as a study companion.
Back then, in the village, Zhou Xiao and Xiaofeng each found three study companions. Later, all six children passed the scholar exams, and subsequently, four passed the Scholar exams, but they haven’t yet participated in the Jieyuan exam.
Xiaofeng’s study companion, Li Shuan, didn’t pass the Scholar exam and wasn’t very fond of studying, so he became Xiaofeng’s personal attendant.
This time, the other two remained at the academy, while Li Shuan followed Xiaofeng back.
Li Shuan treated Xiaofeng better than he did himself, always believing that without Xiaofeng, he wouldn’t have left the village. Moreover, Xiaofeng is truly remarkable—handsome, excellent in his studies, even good at social interactions. So, after giving up his dream of the Imperial exams, he truly became devoted to following Xiaofeng.
"Aunt Xiu, rest assured, if I don’t take good care of Young Master Xiaofeng, I’ll come back with my head to see you."
"What would I do with your head?" Dong Wenxiu laughed, "I know you’re loyal, just reminding you to be cautious in everything to avoid suffering losses."
"Don’t worry, our Young Master Xiaofeng is definitely not the type to suffer losses." Li Shuan was full of awe, "Besides, there’s big sister and brother-in-law, no one would dare bully us."
Thus, after staying home for two nights, Yang Rufeng returned to Beijing amidst the family’s reluctant farewells.
However, just as Xiaofeng left, Zhou Xiao and Sanni returned.
Last year, Zhou Xiao and Xiaofeng took the exam together, and at that time, 150 people were admitted nationwide. He also passed, but his rank was ninety-nine, which couldn’t compare to Xiaofeng’s Jieyuan ranking.
Still, he was quite content because the condition for Sanni to marry him was that he had to pass the Jieyuan exam. Therefore, they got married in October and after that, he took his wife back to the Zhou Family.
