Ji Lüqi, Ziya Jingmo: ? ? ?
"Gentlemen, isn't it inappropriate to discuss how to woo my nephew in front of me?" A beautiful woman in ancient attire walked in.
"Isn't this because I treat you like a good sister!" Young Master Hua leaned closer. "If I really marry Wei Shengxi in the future, I'll have to call you 'Aunt' like him. What a great deal, don't you think?"
Wei Shengyue moved a few steps away from Young Master Hua, saying, "No need. You don't need to call me 'Aunt.' If you want to harm Xi Ge'er, you'll have to get past Young Master Fu first."
I don't know what's wrong with this young master Fu; even my second brother has never taken such good care of Xi-ge.
"Okay, okay, okay." Hua Yueli smiled brightly.
"Don't get yourself into trouble." Gu Nanyan said with a hint of mockery.
Young Master Hua tilted his head, "Can you wish me well for once? If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!" He remained expressionless.
Gu Nanyan ignored him and walked out.
"You're just leaving like this!" Young Master Hua shouted from behind.
"It's lunchtime, and we still have training this afternoon." Gu Nanyan didn't reply, but Wei Shengyue said from the side.
There are no chefs or anything like that on Jingning Mountain, so they have to cook for themselves if they want to eat.
"Wait for me!" Young Master Hua caught up in a few steps, put his arm around Gu Nanyan's shoulder, and muttered, "I don't know how you grew up, even though I'm three years older than you."
"Let's go have a meal too," Ji Luqi said, looking at Ziya, Jingmo, and the others.
"Um."
"No, isn't Master a Taoist? What is this! What is this! Isn't this the mechanical arts of the Mohists?! And this! The Legalist's 'Han Feizi'?! And what is this? 'Guiguzi'? 'Lotus Sutra'?" Lu Ming cried out helplessly.
No one told him he had to learn all this before he came!
"Hurry up and memorize it, it'll be on the test. With your knowledge of mechanisms and formations, I'm almost embarrassed to say anything to you." Ji Luqi held a copy of Han Feizi and looked at Lu Ming with some disdain.
In terms of mechanical skills, Lu Ming is truly terrible.
Of course, this is in comparison to eleven people.
Lu Ming covered her face with a book, indicating that she did not want to talk.
Hua Yueli twirled the book in her hand and yawned lazily, "Where did the old man go again? He marked the contents and disappeared without a trace."
"I'll be back in a bit, what's the rush?" Jiang Yuzhu was fiddling with something in her hands.
"He's back, with a boy who looks about our age." Mei Lanting walked in from outside, holding wild fruits he had just picked from the mountain.
Young Master Mei, unaware of his own worth, did all sorts of things, from picking fruit on the mountain to catching fish in the river.
As for Young Master Ji, who later became known as the "hand-protecting maniac," he would reach out and touch the wild fruit.
"Oh, it seems we're going to have a junior brother soon." Jiang Yuzhu smiled and reached for the wild fruit.
Lu Ming laughed even harder, "Then I'm finally not the youngest anymore!!"
Of the eleven people, Gu Nanyan and Hua Yueli came together, Mei Lanting, Jiang Yuzhu and Shen Juanqing came together, Ji Luqi, Ziya Jingmo and Wei Shengyue came together, and Fu Muqian and Wei Shengxi came together.
He was the only one who came alone, and he was the last one to arrive.
Thus, he became the junior disciple among the eleven.
Now, Master has brought a child with him; he is no longer the junior disciple!
"Let's go, let's go take a look." Hua Yueli got up, took an unknown berry and put it in her mouth.
Zou Bingjun was leading a simply dressed little boy who seemed a bit scared. The boy hid behind Zou Bingjun and watched them cautiously.
"Master, did you bring back a junior brother for us? Let us take a look." Hua Yueli spoke first, her gaze also turning to the child behind her.
They look smaller than all of them.
Zou Bingjun coughed lightly twice, "Behave yourself," and turned to comfort the child, "Don't be afraid, they are all your senior sisters and brothers."
She then pulled the little boy out, saying, "This is your senior sister, Gu Nanyan, the eldest son of the Gu family in the capital. If anything happens in the future, go to her."
Gu Nanyan?
"No, Master, is this how you introduce me?" Gu Nanyan was completely bewildered. Why did this introduction make her sound like the one who would clean up the mess at the end?
"Hahaha." Hua Yueli laughed heartily, "Good, good, good, the patriarch who cleans up after everyone."
Although the others didn't laugh out loud, they were clearly holding it in as well.
Gu Nanyan had never found the title "patriarch" to be so unpleasant.
"The one who was laughing the loudest just now was your second senior sister, Hua Yueli, the eldest son of the Hua family in the capital. Her father is currently the president of the empire. Although she doesn't seem very reliable, she can still step up when it matters."
"What? I'm unreliable!" Hua Yueli immediately became dissatisfied.
"This muddy man is your third senior brother, Mei Lanting, the eldest son of the Mei family in the capital, and the young master of Zui Qingfeng. He should be a world-famous star in the future, but he looks a bit slovenly right now."
Mei Lanting: ? ? ? How did I become sloppy?
"That person dressed in magnificent brocade is your fourth senior brother, Jiang Yuzhu, the eldest son of the Jiang family in the capital, and the young master of the Brocade Pavilion. Although he is young, he is exceptional in embroidery. Let him take your measurements and make you a set of clothes. He is a very good embroiderer."
Jiang Yuzhu: ? ? ? How come he's a pretty good embroiderer?
"This seemingly aloof person is your fifth senior brother, Shen Juanqing, the eldest son of the Shen family in the capital. The Shen family has strict discipline, so you can follow him and he won't lead you astray. But don't listen to him too much and become a bookworm, or your teacher will be devastated."
