Chapter 140: Another Gift Received, Xiao Kui
Then Fang Tiantian asked, "Have you been studying hard lately? I'm at Wisteria Girls' Academy, where we not only have to learn from books, but also have to manage our manners. It's so annoying..."
"I heard that Teacher Dechuang is very good. My parents wanted me to go there, but my brother said I couldn't keep up with the pace there, so he sent me to Zifang instead."
Fang Tiantian couldn't help but lower her head and giggle, looking at Yan Sheng and saying, "My brother knows me too well. I'm really not cut out for studying, hahaha."
"By the way, are you keeping up with the learning pace at Dechuang?"
"Did you just arrive not long ago?"
Yan Sheng nodded: "Yeah, I've only been here for a short time. My sister and brother-in-law hired a tutor for me, and I'm managing to keep up so far... but I haven't taken the grade-level unified exam yet, so I'm not really sure."
Upon hearing this, Fang Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, "Then you are very good at studying! I also have a friend who studies at Dechuang. She told me that it is very difficult to study there and she envies me for not going to Dechuang, hehe."
"By the way, which university do you want to apply to?"
Yan Sheng took a sip of the purified water in his glass and said, "I don't know yet. My grades weren't good before. I'll discuss it with my sister and brother-in-law later. If I can get into university, I should study in Taipei."
Fang Tiantian got excited: "Beishi is great! If you were in Beishi, I'd ask you out all the time! I'm definitely going to be your friend!"
Immediately, he took out his phone to add Yan Sheng on WeChat.
Upon hearing this, Yan Sheng quickly took out his phone, and with a "ding," the friend request was approved.
Fang Tiantian sent him an emoji, and then added a note after the green cabbage profile picture: Yan Sheng.
As the two chatted, Fang Yue felt relieved. She hadn't expected that Yan Kui's younger brother could actually talk to her younger sister for so long. She silently prayed that there would be more people like him...
After the banquet, Wei Yin and Yan Kui went to Old Master Wei's study.
Since leaving the courtyard, the old man has not gone to the banquet hall; he has been staying in his study writing.
As soon as the two entered, Old Master Wei put down his calligraphy brush and said with a smile, "Sit down, I have something to say to you."
Yan Kui sat down next to Wei Yin. Old Master Wei took out a box made of Phoebe zhennan wood from the drawer behind him and walked to Yan Kui.
Upon seeing this, Yan Kui quickly stood up and went to help Old Master Wei.
Grandpa Wei then placed the box in her hands: "This used to be worn by Wei Yin's grandmother. It's in good condition, and I think it would be very suitable for a young girl like Yan Kui to wear. I'll have someone come over later to help you put it on and see."
He then pointed to the jewelry boxes piled up in one corner behind him.
"This is a selection of jewelry. Jade ornaments don't go out of style easily. I'll have someone send them to you later."
Yan Kui glanced at Wei Yin, wanting to suggest that she shouldn't accept so many things and hint to the man to help her refuse, but Wei Yin smiled and said, "Didn't Yan Sheng come today too?"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Wei burst into laughter and scolded, "You brat, are you trying to insult me?"
"I have already sent someone to summon Yan Sheng."
Old Master Wei had met Yan Sheng before; he was obedient and well-behaved.
Yan Kui realized she had been negligent; with such a big event happening just now, she had forgotten to ask Yan Sheng to send his blessings to Grandpa Wei…
Before he could even apologize, there was a knock on the study door.
The butler said from outside the door, "Master, Yan Sheng has arrived."
After he finished speaking, the door was opened, and Yan Sheng, who had been looking puzzled, calmed down after seeing his older sister.
Then he looked at Grandpa Wei and bowed very politely: "Grandpa Wei, happy birthday!"
Yan Sheng was a little shy. He wanted to thank Grandpa Wei again for his help to his family all along, but he didn't know where to start.
