If he had not just read the academy's comments a moment ago, he would probably think that his younger brother had gotten into a terrible disaster when he saw this scene.
Xiao Jingyun carefully invited people in, but he felt that the teachers looked at him strangely.
Master Zhu and Master Lu looked at each other as if they were enemies, with serious expressions and sharp eyes. The old headmaster behind them was hunched over and said nothing. Master Huo and his five brothers stood on both sides like guards, looking extremely majestic.
"I don't know... has something happened to my Qilang?" This was the first time in Xiao Jingyun's life that the teacher came to his house.
"You are the eldest son of the Xiao family, right?" Master Zhu asked first.
Xiao Jingyun immediately nodded politely: "It is the junior."
Master Zhu snorted, "May I ask, Mr. Xiao, why are you hindering your brother's future?"
Xiao Jingyun broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this. He was at a loss as to what to say. "Master, why do you say that? I naturally hope that my seventh brother will have a bright future."
"In that case, our academy teacher hopes that your brother will take the exam next year. I wonder what Master Xiao of the Xiao family thinks?" Master Zhu softened instantly, with some anticipation in his eyes.
Xiao Jingyun subconsciously wanted to agree, but suddenly remembered... the letter of guarantee he had signed earlier.
His face couldn't help but become embarrassed.
Master Zhu thought he was doubting his brother's abilities, so he immediately explained, "To be honest, we originally thought your brother was playful and incompetent. But it was only after yesterday's ten-day exam that we realized he had been deliberately playing dumb the entire time. With his talent, his fate was definitely guaranteed."
"I haven't fully understood his talent yet, but it will definitely not be a problem for him to pass the examination for a student and then a scholar. With the hard work of several of us teachers, he will be able to pass the examination within three years and be qualified to be an official. He is still young and has plenty of time. He may be able to compare with Xiao Jieyuan in the future." Master Zhu said patiently.
Xiao Jingyun was shocked: "Really?"
"Of course, it was also our negligence that we didn't notice it before." Master Zhu said with some regret.
What a waste of months!
Xiao Jingyun frowned, not knowing what to do. "I... naturally support Seventh Brother's fate, but... I also promised him earlier that I would never force him to take the exam, so..."
I regret it so much!
That brat actually plotted against his brother!
"How can we let the child act recklessly? Wouldn't it be a pity to waste time?" Master Zhu was a little anxious.
"I think so too, but my seventh brother really doesn't want to..." Xiao Jingyun had a hard time expressing his feelings.
"Mr. Xiao Dalang is so indulgent. Have you ever thought about the opinions of other members of the Xiao family?" Master Zhu was very angry. Xiao Qillang had no parents, so it was the responsibility of the Xiao family to urge him to make progress. As Xiao Qillang's eldest brother, he actually allowed the child to act recklessly?
Being stared at by a group of people, Xiao Jingyun only felt that the wound hurt even more.
He silently covered his stomach with one hand and said helplessly, "Earlier, I just thought that my seventh brother didn't like studying. In order to make him more obedient, I agreed to his request and wrote a letter of guarantee... I think, if we brothers hadn't promised to make him a... a celestial master, he probably wouldn't have revealed his strength until now..."
After hearing this, the teachers understood.
I felt helpless immediately.
Are these young men in the Xiao family stupid?
Having been fooled around by Xiao Qilang, she even wrote a letter of guarantee? What's going on now?!
Aren't they just going to watch this beautiful jade go to waste?!
