Chapter 132 Taking a Name
Chapter 132 Taking a Name
Lu Yundi had not been idle for a while when he received a message from the clan school saying that the brother and sister Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin were causing trouble in the clan school, which made Master Qu very angry.
Lu Yundi frowned slightly when she heard this. She put down the teacup in her hand and stood up with a serious expression. She knew that the rules of the clan school were strict. Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin, the brother and sister, could anger Master Qu, so they must have caused a big mess. She sighed lightly and said to the maid beside her, "Prepare the sedan chair. I'm going to the clan school."
In the courtyard of the clan school, the autumn sun shone through the sparse leaves, and sprinkled on the blue brick floor. Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin stood in front of Master Qu, both of them with obvious resistance on their faces. Master Qu had an angry look on his face, and the ruler in his hand hit the table heavily, making a crisp sound.
Lu Yundi walked into the yard and saw this scene from a distance. She walked slowly to Master Qu, bowed slightly, and greeted politely: "Master Qu, I'm sorry to bother you. I heard from the servants that the children made you angry. Please forgive me."
When Master Qu saw Lu Yundi, the anger on his face eased a little. He shook his head and sighed, "Madam, these two children are really too naughty. In class today, not only did they not listen carefully, but they also quarreled with other students, which seriously affected the atmosphere of the clan school."
Lu Yundi smiled slightly and turned his gaze to Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin: "Lan'er, Qin'er, do you know where you went wrong?"
Yan Canglan lowered his head, pursed his lips, and looked a little stubborn. Yan Shuqin's eyes were slightly red, tears welled up in her eyes, but she tried hard not to let them fall.
Lu Yundi walked up to Yan Canglan and patted him on the shoulder gently: "Lan'er, why are you so naughty? The clan school is a place for you to learn. You should respect your teachers and get along well with your classmates."
Yan Canglan looked up at his mother, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he finally said: "Mother, they...they laughed at me and said that I was not your biological son."
Lu Yundi's face changed slightly. She didn't expect that there would be such rumors among the children. She turned her head and said to Master Qu: "Master Qu, please judge fairly. Did they say such things?"
Master Qu pondered for a moment and nodded: "Some people have indeed discussed this matter in private, but I have not seen it with my own eyes. However, the conflict between the children does need to be properly resolved."
Lu Yundi returned to Yan Shuqin and comforted her softly, "Qin'er, don't cry. Mother promises you that no matter who gave birth to you, in my heart, you will always be my daughter. As for those gossips, we don't have to take them to heart. As long as we do our best, time will prove everything."
When Yan Shuqin heard her mother's words, she couldn't help but throw herself into Lu Yundi's arms and burst into tears. Lu Yundi gently stroked her hair, feeling helpless and worried.
At this time, Yan Canglan suddenly said: "Mother, I know I was wrong. From now on, I will listen to the lessons carefully and will not cause you any more trouble."
Lu Yundi smiled slightly and looked at Yan Canglan with satisfaction: "Good boy, it is a great virtue to admit your mistakes and correct them. Your mother is very happy that you can recognize your mistakes."
Seeing this, Master Qu also smiled with satisfaction. He stood up and said to Lu Yundi, "Madam, since the matter has been resolved, I will not pursue it any further. However, these two children still need to be strictly disciplined to prevent them from making mistakes again."
Lu Yundi nodded in agreement. She turned to Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin and said in a serious tone: "Remember, no matter when and where, you must abide by the rules and respect others. Otherwise, you will pay a heavy price."
Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin answered in unison: "Mother, we will remember it."
In order to liven up the atmosphere, Yan Canglan said with a smile: "Mother, these two little birds have not been named yet..."
Lu Yundi smiled gently, with a loving light in her eyes. She patted Yan Canglan's hand gently and responded: "Then, you can name them."
Yan Canglan's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Then I will name them 'Huanhuan' and 'Xixi', and hope they can bring happiness and joy to the Yan Mansion."
Yan Shuqin smiled softly, her eyes moving as she looked at Yan Canglan and said softly, "Brother, you are really thoughtful. However, Huanhuan and Xixi, these two names have some childhood interest."
Lu Yundi listened to the children's conversation, feeling warm in her heart. She sighed softly and said, "Yes, time flies. In the blink of an eye, you have all grown up."
Yan Canglan saw that his mother was a little emotional, so he changed the subject and said, "Mother, look, the flowers outside are in full bloom. Why don't we go for a walk in the garden?"
Lu Yundi smiled slightly, nodded, then followed Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin out of the room and came to the back garden of the Yan Mansion.
The flowers in the garden were in full bloom, red plums, white pears, crape myrtles, and all kinds of flowers were blooming, and the fragrance was overwhelming. The three of them strolled in the garden, and Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin told jokes from time to time, making Lu Yundi smile like a flower.
As they walked, Yan Canglan suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Lu Yundi, and said seriously: "Mother, you know, I have been telling you something."
Lu Yundi smiled slightly and said, "What makes you so serious?"
Yan Canglan took a deep breath and said, "Mother, I want to thank you. Thank you for your love and care for me all the time, which makes me feel warm in this family. I know that I am not your biological son, but you treat me better than your biological son."
Lu Yundi's eyes were slightly red, and she gently patted Yan Canglan's shoulder and said, "Silly child, these are what I should do. Since you came into this family, I have treated you as my own son. You are a good child, and I am very pleased."
Yan Shuqin also said with emotion: "Yes, brother, we all remember the love our mother has shown us. We must work harder to make you and father feel at ease."
At this time, the housekeeper of the Yan Mansion came over and said to Yan Canglan: "Master, there is a guest who wants to see you. He said that he has something important to discuss."
Yan Canglan frowned slightly and said, "Guest? Who is he?"
The butler shook his head and said, "This guest claimed to be a man from the underworld. He didn't want to reveal his name, but said he had something important to discuss."
Yan Canglan pondered for a moment, "Okay, take him to the living room, I'll be there later."
The housekeeper took the order and left. Yan Canglan turned to Lu Yundi and said, "Mother, I have to meet a guest later and may be back later. You and sister should rest first."
Lu Yundi nodded gently and said, "Go ahead, be careful."
Yan Canglan responded and left the garden. Yan Shuqin looked at Yan Canglan's back and asked worriedly, "Brother, does that guest have any intentions?"
Lu Yundi smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, your brother has grown up, he will handle it."
Yan Shuqin nodded and followed Lu Yundi back to the room.
