Lady Xuanping Hou looked at the female official in front of her who was treated as a distinguished guest by the aristocratic families just so that she could give some advice to her family's descendants, and her eyes narrowed in a particularly bright and charming smile.

An Xin has a problem in his past and present lives, which is that he is resistant to good-looking men, but is tolerant and caring towards women of his type.

The wife of the Marquis of Xuanping was also a straightforward person. She saw the anxiety in An Xin's eyes and knew that she was worried about the man who fell into the water. She said softly, "I know that the Lord Jijiu is worried, so I won't waste time talking to you. I'll let Xiu'er take you there now."

"Thank you!" An Xin bowed.

After all, Feng Yuxiu was still young, and he was the youngest son of Lady Xuanping Hou. He could not hide his excitement when An Xin wanted to take him as his disciple.

Even as she was about to lead An Xin out of the tent, she couldn't help but turn around and smile like an idiot, saying happily, "Mother, the chief priest just told me to call An Jiancheng who fell into the water my senior brother!"

After saying that, he grinned and pulled An Xin's sleeve and walked out of the tent, leaving behind the marquis's wife who was stunned by the sudden surprise. She never expected that the surprise would come so suddenly.

She has always been worried that if her youngest son continues like this, he will become a real playboy, and she doesn't know what to do.

I didn't expect that such a great thing would happen to my son.

This was the female headmistress who had taught six top-ranking and three-place winners in the imperial examinations and who had been chased by people all over the capital who wanted to invite her to be their teacher. She had no place to hide and had to flee the capital with her students.

"Hahaha... OK, OK," Lady Xuanping Hou laughed happily. "Quick, quick, pack up your things. We'll go back soon. I want to tell the Marquis the good news."

Just as happy for her younger brother Feng Yuxiu as the Marquis' wife was Feng Lingyun, the Marquis of Xuanping's legitimate daughter, who originally had a worried look on her face.

Hearing that his brother was accepted as a disciple by a female teacher that was fought over by various families in the capital, he smiled and said softly in a voice as clear as a lark, "It's a happy thing. Father should know it as soon as possible."

Sitting not far from the mother and daughter, Meng Yulan, the daughter of Xuanping Hou's deceased sister, had a smile on her face but deep jealousy in her eyes.

She secretly hated why such a good thing didn't happen to her younger brother Meng Yutao.

My own younger brother needs a teacher like this who can help him pass the imperial examination and become successful more than my cousin who has a reliable family background.

Meng Yulan thought regretfully that she shouldn't have looked down on her widowed cousin Feng Lingyun, and rejected her aunt's suggestion to accompany her to the river to relax.

If she had been there, she would have played a role in saving the person.

As for Feng Lingyun, that blockhead, it is not impossible that she can even take all the credit for herself.

So, isn't it natural for that female teacher who was so popular among all the families in the capital, and also the third-rank chief academic officer of the Imperial College, to accept her younger brother as a student out of gratitude?

Not to mention how regretful Meng Yulan is now, she is secretly planning in her heart to snatch this opportunity from Feng Yuxiu and give it to her own brother.

An Xin walked out of the tent and saw Li Ziyu, Leng Xiangbai, and even Yuchi Yi and a few other little guys, all looking at her with resentful eyes.

Seeing that An Xin ignored them, he followed the little disciple he had just agreed to accept and walked towards a small tent nearby.

They looked at each other and followed him reluctantly. They still had some love between them as classmates, but the most important thing now was to visit that guy An Rui.

An Xin entered the tent and saw a nanny and two servants taking care of him, and his wet clothes had been changed.

When several servants saw them come in, they bowed and saluted their master Feng Yuxiu and An Xin.

Hearing the noise, An Rui opened his eyes and saw An Xin, who was wearing a man's robe and had wet hair hanging down her face. She stood there staring at him with a dark face and said weakly, "Cousin, don't be angry. I know I was wrong."

"I'll settle the score with you when I get back!" Only at this moment did An Xin feel relieved.

Then he walked over and ignored the surprised expressions of others, bent down and lifted up his cousin, and said hatefully: "You little bastard, you can find someone you like in the future.

If I find out that you can't control your legs and go after that woman, I will break both of your legs."

"Cousin, please let me go." An Rui said with a pitiful face: "I don't know what's wrong with me. When I saw that Miss Xiao, I couldn't help but get close to her."

"I don't really like her that much!" An Rui scratched the back of his head in confusion.

An Xin sighed helplessly, and his expression relaxed. He knew that they were all affected by the woman's aura, so he said nothing more and carried him out of the curtained tent.

"Little Shanzhang, please give A Rui to us."

"Teacher, let's do it."

An Xin looked at the pairs of outstretched hands and thought that no matter who he handed An Rui over to, it would probably cause dissatisfaction from the other side.

An Xin had a wooden face and said in a flat tone: "No need, this is our only child, I'll do it myself."

An Rui is no longer the little boy who always talks about the only child of the An family. After hearing what his cousin said, a bit of blood turned on his pale face.

"Sister, you are my biological sister, can we not bring this up?" An Rui struggled. He was drowning, not disabled. "Besides, I can walk by myself."

An Xin looked down at him, "Am I not your biological sister?!"

"Uh..." An Rui was speechless for a moment, "Oh my God, someone come and save the poor kid!"

But in the end, An Xin was kind enough to put the shy little cousin down and help him walk.

Lady Xuanping Hou walked out of the big tent and was surprised to hear these words. Only then did she realize the truth about herself.

It turned out that the boy whose daughter was calling for help was actually the younger brother of this Lord Jijiu.

No wonder she was willing to take this brat as her student just for the sake of the man her daughter saved.

An Xin looked up and saw that the sun was setting. He said goodbye to the wife of Marquis Xuanping, "I heard on the way down that it was your lady who found my brother drowning and rescued him.

It's getting late today, when A Rui gets better, I will bring him to thank you one day."

The wife of the Marquis of Xuanping was a cheerful and kind person. She smiled at An Xin and said, "How can I stand by and watch someone die without helping? It's her duty to call for help after seeing someone die. Your Excellency, don't take it to heart."

An Xin and An Rui bowed to the wife of Marquis Xuanping and expressed their gratitude. They exchanged a few more words of greeting before leaving with Feng Yuxiu, their new disciple who had not yet become their apprentice.

"Teacher, can I go to your house to play with my senior brothers?" Feng Yuxiu asked hurriedly as he looked at the place where An Xin and the others had returned to rest and were about to get on the carriage to leave.

"Can't."

"No time."

"No outsiders are welcome."

An Xin held his forehead with his hand, wondering what sin he had committed by accepting these students and disciples who loved to pick on and bully their fellow juniors.
