”Aunt, my family's young master is talking to you!” The servant saw that Jin Xiaodie was stunned, and reminded her with good intentions.

Only then did Jin Xiaodie wake up and quickly replied, ”Just now, I was distracted and didn't hear what you said. I don't think you are here for Zheng.” He's in the living room. ”

Cheng Yu was ushered into the living room. The noise of the footsteps outside the door had already attracted the attention of Zheng, Zheng, and his son.

Zheng walked out and looked over. He was pleasantly surprised. He walked over and held Cheng Yu's hand. ”Brother Cheng, why are you here?”

”For the past few days, I haven't been to the academy, but now that you've obtained the first place in the academy and the glory that you've received as a reward, how could I not know that I've come today to congratulate you?” Cheng Yu patted Zheng's hand.

The servants carried the two boxes to Zheng's feet.

While Zheng was wondering what this was, Jin Xiaoyan also came out.

”Ah, this is?” Jin Xiaoyan looked at the man in front of her. Her heart skipped a beat – where did this handsome young man come from?

Zheng quickly introduced him. ”Mom, this is my son's classmate at the academy. His name is Cheng Yu.”

Then he turned to Cheng Yu and said, ”Brother Cheng, this is my mother, and this is my second aunt.”

”So that's how it is.” Cheng Yu courteously said, ”Greetings, second aunt.”

”Good child, hurry and get up!” Jin Xiaoyan reached out a hand to help her up.

Jin Xiaodie also stretched out her hand, but when she saw Jin Xiaoyan's action, she quickly withdrew it.

Jin Xiaoyan didn't have Jin Xiaodie's vision, she only vaguely felt that her son's classmate had an extraordinary appearance, but she couldn't think of anything else.

At this time, she also noticed the two boxes on the ground. She knew that it must be brought by this classmate of hers, so she kindly smiled and said, ”Since it's my classmate, why did you bring a present?”

Cheng Yu smiled, rubbed the Sheep's Finger White Jade Fan, and said with a sincere expression, ”Brother Zheng got first place in the academy two days ago, and also earned the praise of Mister. It's precisely because he's with a classmate that he brought a present.”

”No, no, no, how can we accept this?” Jin Xiaoyan shook her head.

Zheng wanted to refuse.

However, Cheng Yu did not give him this opportunity. Seeing the refusal on his face, he directly said, ”It's just some ordinary gadgets.”

He then instructed the followers behind him, ”Open these two boxes.”

The four lackeys quickly opened the box. Everyone looked down and saw that one of the box had good paper in it, and the other box had pen, ink, and two sides of inkstone.

They were all things a scholar needed to use.

”Brother Zheng, are you relieved now?” The corners of Cheng Yu's eyes were filled with faint amusement.

Jin Xiaoyan was relieved to see that the two boxes were filled with ink and paper. Since her son had used up a lot of money to go to the Academy, it didn't matter if she took them or not. She turned to Zheng and said,

”Since it's your classmate's kind intentions, then take it.”

Jin Xiaoyan thought that they were the same as the ones she had bought in the past, but she didn't know the difference was like the difference between heaven and earth.

On the other side, Jin Xiaodie was completely shocked. Normally, her son would be going to the academy, and she would be the one to pick out the ink and paper in the shop.

She was proud that her family had some spare money. Those second-rate stores were never for sale, and she was only willing to go to better ones.
