As the sun set and the sky darkened, Zheng Fenghui once again walked into the house looking haggard.

As soon as he passed the threshold, he saw Gu Qinlan holding a round fan with an exquisite pattern on it, waving it slowly, with a cunning light in his eyes and a playful smile on his lips: "Has our eldest son Zheng finally arrived? Is he coming back in defeat again? Don't forget, the three days we agreed on are coming soon."

Zheng Fenghui snorted coldly, his face unyielding: "The deadline has not yet arrived, there is still one day tomorrow, I will definitely get what I want."

Gu Qinlan raised her eyebrows and smiled even more: "Oh? Really? I have reached an agreement with Polang, and he has agreed to teach you martial arts."

Zheng Fenghui's eyes sparkled instantly: "Are you telling the truth? Did he really agree?"

Gu Qinlan nodded her head and said, "When have I ever lied to you? However, if you still hesitate to enroll, this opportunity will disappear like a passing cloud."

Originally, Zheng Fenghui had been thinking of quitting today, but Gu Qinlan's words seemed to inject new energy into him.

"Just wait, I will return with good news tomorrow!"

He secretly made up his mind that even if he had to kneel down and beg tomorrow, he would make Master Xiao agree!

However, at this moment, his stomach was rumbling. He thought that he had gone a day without eating or drinking in order to win Mr. Xiao's sympathy, and had to avoid being chased by wild dogs. It was really hard.

Zheng Fenghui hurried to his residence, intending to replenish his strength.

Gu Qinlan turned to Hongye who had followed and said, "Go to Master Xiao's residence right away and hand him a visiting card. I will invite him and his wife to Wangjiang Tower to enjoy a delicious meal tomorrow at noon."

Fu Yu asked curiously, "Miss, are you planning to lend a helping hand to the eldest master?"

Gu Qinlan sighed helplessly: "What else can we do? He has been struggling for several days, but Master Xiao still refuses to give in. It is obvious that he is unwilling to accept him as his disciple."

Fu Yu worriedly asked, "What if the eldest son reverts to his old ways and behaves recklessly after entering school? What should we do?"

Gu Qinlan groaned and said, "If that's true, then he is truly hopeless."

But she believes that Zheng Fenghui will change after experiencing this difficult journey of studying.

After all, people often don’t value things that are easily obtained; only things that are obtained after going through untold hardships will be regarded as treasures.

Through this incident, Zheng Fenghui will definitely know the limits in his future actions. At least he will think twice before making a mistake.

I deeply appreciate my mother's care and concern for Fenghui.

Zheng Huaiyu showed up unexpectedly and bowed politely to Gu Qinlan.

Gu Qinlan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Did you hear everything just now?"

Zheng Huaiyu nodded sincerely: "I went to mother's courtyard to look for you. The maids told me that you were there, so I followed you and happened to hear your conversation with Sister Fuyu. Mother, I am very grateful."

Deep down in her heart, she was indeed filled with gratitude.

Gu Qinlan could have stayed out of it, but she tried her best to plan for their future.

She remembered Zheng Fenghui's previous evaluation of Zou: This mother has only been with me for three months, but the care and love she has given me is far greater than yours.

At this moment, she felt a deep resonance with these words.

Looking back on that time, the younger brother was expelled from school. Their biological mother, apart from constantly blaming him for being naughty and ignorant, never really explored the reasons behind it, nor did she try to shape his character as painstakingly as Gu Qinlan did.

As for finding a martial artist for my brother!

She came to visit Gu Qinlan for this very reason.

Thinking of this, she bowed deeply to Gu Qinlan again: "Thank you mother for finding such an outstanding martial arts master for Feng Hui."

The men of the Zheng family will all serve on the battlefield in the future, so they must master superb martial arts to ensure that they can return safely from the war.

Zheng Fenghui's martial arts master was found by Zou through someone else. Zheng Fenghui practiced with him for two or three years, but he was not able to master even the basics. Later, his father, their third uncle, came back and drove the martial arts master out of the house, and hired a reliable one.

However, when the young aunt was in charge of the household, she thought that the martial arts master's salary was too high, so she fired him and replaced him with a half-baked one.

Zheng Fenghui is now eight years old, and the skills he has truly mastered are still the bits and pieces taught by his second martial arts master.

Today, she was ecstatic to learn that Gu Qinlan had personally asked the world-famous hero Polang to be Zheng Fenghui's martial arts master.

Therefore, she decided to go to Gu Qinlan to express her gratitude.

Gu Qinlan gently helped her up: "Since you call me mother, I will plan for your future. Moreover, the men of the Zheng family shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the country and the people of Western Wei. Just based on this point, I must think carefully."

"Okay, let's go back, it's almost dinner time."

Zheng Huaiyu followed Gu Qinlan obediently, and secretly vowed in his heart that he must work hard and become a person like Gu Qinlan in the future.

……

the next day.

Mrs. Zheng, Gu Qinlan, came to Taibai Tower and booked a sumptuous banquet.

When the agreed time arrived, Mr. Xiao and his wife arrived on time.

As soon as Mr. Xiao sat down, he got straight to the point and said, "Mrs. Zheng, I know your intention of summoning my husband and me here today, but I must be frank. I cannot agree. Zheng Fenghui is arrogant and lacks ambition. His attitude towards his classmates is even more arrogant and rude. If I let him enter my school, how can I explain to the parents of other students?"

Mr. Xiao was over 40 years old, with a flowing beard, a straight and thin figure, and a firm and solemn look. When he mentioned Zheng Fenghui, a trace of excitement flashed across his face, and he was obviously angered by Zheng Fenghui's behavior.

His wife was quietly pulling at his sleeve, signaling him to stop talking, but Mr. Xiao was still indignant.

"Don't pull me. How can I be afraid of power? At worst, I can just not open this school. I can't let Zheng Fenghui, a black sheep, destroy the educational sanctuary that I have worked so hard to build!"

"Madam Zheng, your Prince Duan's Mansion is very powerful and influential. It would be easy for you to get any school. Why did you choose to come to my small school and cause disputes?"

Madam Xiao's eyes were red with anxiety, and she quickly apologized to Gu Qinlan: "Please forgive me, my husband did not mean to offend, he was just worried that Master Zheng would harm other students. Please forgive his gaffe because he is wholeheartedly thinking about the students."

Seeing this, Gu Qinlan hurried forward to help Madam Xiao up: "Madam Xiao, please don't do this. What have you done wrong? The one who is wrong is Zheng Fenghui. Mr. Xiao is always thinking about the welfare of his students. He is an educator with both moral integrity and talent. I admire him so much that I can't have the slightest feeling of inappropriateness towards him."

Mrs. Xiao had never expected that Gu Qinlan would give such a high evaluation of her husband, and she was stunned for a moment.

Looking back, when Zheng Fenghui was expelled from school by her husband, Zheng Fenghui's mother went to her husband's house to scold him and threatened to make him pay.
