Chapter 1036 [The Untamed 10]
The next morning, sunlight shone through the window onto the dining table. Jiang Fengmian, Youyou, Yu Ziyuan and others sat together, enjoying a sumptuous breakfast.
Just as everyone was laughing and talking, Jiang Fengmian suddenly put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to Youyou in a serious tone: "Thank you, auntie. Fengmian knows he was wrong." His voice was low and sincere, with a hint of guilt.
Youyou looked at Jiang Fengmian with a smile and said softly, "As long as you are nice to Sanniang, nothing else will be a problem." Her words revealed her trust and tolerance for Jiang Fengmian.
Jiang Fengmian nodded quickly, then turned his gaze to Yu Ziyuan and said gently, "I know, I will." His eyes were full of love and determination.
At the same time, the academy was bustling with activity. Jiang Cheng brought Xue Yang and Jin Guangyao to the registration office, ready to start their study life in the academy.
When the classmates saw the two unfamiliar faces, they were all very curious and gathered around, asking in unison: "Brother Jiang, who are these two?"
Jiang Cheng introduced with a smile: "These are two new junior brothers who have come to our academy to attend classes." His voice was loud and clear so that everyone present could hear it.
"Junior brother?" Everyone looked puzzled, obviously not satisfied with the answer.
Just then, Jiang Yanli came over and said to everyone with a smile: "Okay, everyone take your seats, the teacher is coming." Although her tone was gentle, it revealed an unquestionable majesty.
After hearing Jiang Yanli's words, the students didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly returned to their seats. They didn't want to be punished by the teacher, because the teacher in class today was notoriously strict and unkind, and it would be useless no matter who came.
As soon as everyone sat down, the master came over. After scanning the area, his eyes fell on the two unfamiliar faces and he said slowly, "You two must be the new disciples."
Xue Yang and Jin Guangyao looked at each other and replied in unison, "Master, that's right."
The Master nodded slightly, and then said, "In that case, let me introduce myself first so that everyone can get to know me."
Xue Yang stood up after hearing this, bowed to the Master and everyone else, and said loudly: "Master, hello, fellow brothers and sisters, my name is Xue Yang."
Jin Guangyao also stood up and saluted everyone, then said: "Master, hello, fellow brothers and sisters, my name is Jin Guangyao."
The Master smiled and nodded, indicating that he was satisfied with the responses of the two, and then continued: "Well, that's good. New disciples, please find a place to sit down first. You are new here, so you may not know me very well. My last name is Li, and you can call me Master Li. In my class, there are several rules that you need to remember. First, no one is allowed to take leave without reason; second, you must not doze off in class; third, homework must be completed on time and must not be delayed; lastly, and most importantly, if you do not pass the course at the end, you can only retake it. There is no chance for make-up exams here."
Xue Yang and Jin Guangyao responded in unison: "Yes, Master."
"Let the class begin." Master Li said, stroking his beard.
……
After class, the classroom suddenly became noisy, and the students quickly gathered around Jin Guangyao and Xue Yang like a group of chirping birds.
“Wow, your name is Jin Guangyao? Are you from the Lanling Jin Clan?” a classmate asked curiously.
Jin Guangyao smiled slightly and replied calmly: "It was before, but not now."
"What does that mean?" Another classmate obviously still didn't understand and asked.
At this moment, Jiang Yanli suddenly coughed. The sound was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear. She looked at everyone with a smile and said softly, "Are you all so free? Then go to the lotus pond and dig lotus roots."
When the students heard this, they dispersed as if they were under a spell, and dared not say another word.
Jiang Yanli turned around, looked at Jin Guangyao, and asked with concern: "Junior Brother Jin, are you okay? These people just like to listen to gossip, just ignore them, they just have too much free time."
Jin Guangyao smiled gratefully and said, "I understand, Senior Sister, thank you."
"You're welcome. We are all from the same college, so we should take care of each other. Besides, mother also specifically asked me to take good care of you two." Jiang Yanli said gently.
Jiang Cheng echoed, "That's right, so Junior Brother Xue, Junior Brother Jin, if you need any help in the future, just let us know. Don't be shy. Although Wuxian may seem a bit cold, he is actually a very warm-hearted person."
“If you need anything, you can ask me for help.” Wei Wuxian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a friendly smile, and said softly.
Jin Guangyao and Xue Yang looked at each other, and saw gratitude in each other's eyes. They hurriedly thanked them, "Thank you."
At this time, Jiang Yanli suddenly interrupted and said, "By the way, Junior Brother Jin, Junior Brother Xue, you can try my cooking later." Her voice was gentle and melodious, like a spring breeze caressing your face.
Upon hearing this, Jin Guangyao and Xue Yang showed anticipation on their faces.
Seeing this, Jiang Yanli's smile grew brighter, and she continued, "My cooking skills are very good, especially lotus root and pork ribs soup. That's my specialty! Once you try it, you'll know how delicious it is."
Jiang Cheng was listening at the side and couldn't help but interrupt, "You are so lucky. My sister's cooking skills are really good, especially the lotus root and pork ribs soup, the taste is simply amazing!" As he spoke, he swallowed his saliva, as if he was already savoring the delicious soup.
After hearing what Jiang Cheng said, Jin Guangyao and Xue Yang were even more excited about Jiang Yanli's cooking skills. They said in unison, "Thank you for your hospitality, Senior Sister."
"Sister, let's go dig lotus roots now." Jiang Cheng said excitedly, seeming to be looking forward to digging lotus roots.
However, Jiang Yanli shook her head and said with a smile, "No need. Someone is helping to dig it out. It has probably been sent to the kitchen. We can just go there directly."
Jiang Cheng listened and asked in confusion: "Are you talking about those fellow apprentices, sister?"
Jiang Yanli nodded and answered affirmatively: "Yes, it's them."
So, the two of them went to the kitchen together. As soon as they arrived, Jiang Cheng was surprised to find that there were indeed a lot of dug lotus roots neatly placed there.
Seeing this, Jiang Cheng quickly said, "Then let me wash the lotus root."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Yang, Jin Guangyao, and Wei Wuxian beside him also said, "Let's help too."
Jiang Yanli was very pleased to see everyone so enthusiastic, and said with a smile: "Okay, there is strength in numbers, so we can go faster. I'll go take care of the ribs first, and we'll make a sumptuous dinner together later."
Before long, an alluring aroma wafted out from the kitchen. It was the smell of lotus root and pork ribs. Jiang Yanli skillfully served this delicious dish in bowls, first serving one bowl to Jin Guangyao and Xue Yang, then serving one bowl to Wei Wuxian, and finally taking her own turn.
Jiang Cheng watched all this with his own eyes, and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. He grumbled and complained to Jiang Yanli, "Sister, how come you took care of them all but forgot about me? I'm your biological brother!"
Jiang Yanli rolled her eyes at him and replied unhappily, "Don't you have hands? Do you still want me to serve you like a child? Besides, you're such a grown-up, can't you even take care of yourself?"
Jiang Cheng felt a little wronged when Jiang Yanli said this. He argued, "Of course I can take care of myself, but I still feel a little uncomfortable when you treat me differently, sister."
At this moment, Wei WuXian saw this and quickly interrupted, “How about this, Jiang Cheng, I’ll give you my bowl and I’ll get another one.”
Jiang Cheng heard this and quickly waved his hands, "No, no, my sister told me to serve myself, and there's still a lot in the pot, I can just serve myself a bowl."
“Senior Sister, the lotus root and pork ribs soup you made is absolutely amazing!” Jin Guangyao exclaimed as he drank the soup.
Jiang Yanli smiled and said, "Drink more if you like. I'll make it for you next time."
Jin Guangyao waved his hands quickly and said, "Will this be too much trouble for Senior Sister?"
Jiang Yanli smiled and replied, "It's okay. I really like cooking."
At this time, Xue Yang suddenly interrupted and said, "Senior sister, you like cooking, could it be that you entered the esophagus?"
Jiang Yanli asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Esophagus? What is that?"
Xue Yang explained: "I once heard my master say that there are various paths in the world, such as the ruthless path, the affectionate path, the free and easy path, the food path, the ghost path, the natural path, the good path, the evil path, the sword path, the killing path, etc. Everyone can choose the path they want to enter according to their own preferences and personality."
Jiang Cheng was surprised when he heard this and said, "How come I have never heard of these teachings?"
Jin Guangyao also echoed: "Yeah, I haven't heard of it either."
Jiang Yanli and Wei Wuxian also shook their heads, indicating that they were also unaware.
