After being kicked out of the wealthy family, her ancestor shocked the world

Si Nan's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to look at Mo Peiyun.

"May I?"

Although this place is not as good as Weigel's home, it is much better than his faculty apartment.

"Of course." Mo Peiyun reached out and touched Chu Peining's head, "It's just right for my little girl to help with her homework."

Si Nan immediately agreed: "That's just a small matter."

Mo Peiyun: "Let her strive to get first place in the final exam."

"I didn't ask...what did you say?!" Si Nan exclaimed.

"Are you having trouble?" Mo Peiyun glanced at him, then turned around and said calmly, "Then let's go to the top ten."

Si Nan's eyebrows twitched violently, and he raised his hand and pressed it.

"Do you want to hear what you're saying?"

Students in Class 9 want to be in the top ten. Do they look down on the gifted class or do they look up to their teachers?

Even when she was in the gifted class, Chu Peining's grades were among the lowest in the entire grade.

Mo Peiyun: “Is it difficult?”

Si Nan took a deep breath and discarded this absurd idea. He assumed that he was talking about the class ranking and agreed with a smile: "No problem, top ten is top ten."

He knew the students in the class well. They didn't even bring pens to the exams. They would just lie down and sleep after writing their names on the admission tickets.

As long as Chu Peining wrote something on the answer sheet, there would be no problem in getting into the top ten.

"Well, if our Ningning can get into the top ten in the grade, I will give you the painting of 'Lord of the Abyss' that you have always wanted."

Si Nan's eyes were filled with horror. He didn't expect that what he said was really the top ten in the grade.

After hearing the latter sentence, he became alert and asked excitedly: "Lord of the Abyss? Are you talking about Ms. Viola's famous painting Lord of the Abyss?!"

Chu Peining paused.

Mo Peiyun nodded slowly, "It's now stored at Weigel's place. If you fulfill your promise, I'll have someone deliver it to you."

Si Nan waved his hand, "No problem!"

That's "Lord of the Abyss"! A world famous painting!!

The painting disappeared after its creator Viola died two hundred years ago. It was not until a few years ago when Earl Serrick made his assets public that the painting appeared in the public eye for the first time.

It bears Ms. Viola's exclusive mark, and combined with the descriptions of many painters and critics of the same period, it is confirmed to be "Lord of the Abyss" without a doubt.

As long as he can get it, he will try his best even if it means Chu Peining gets first place in the grade.

Mo Peiyun asked Ji Qingzhi to stay for dinner, and they walked to the restaurant together. When they entered the room, they saw Xi Luobai sitting upright, and introduced her: "Aunt Ji, this is Xi Luobai."

"Xi?" Ji Qingzhi examined his attire and looked at Mo Peiyun in surprise, "You mean..."

Mo Peiyun nodded, "He is a disciple of the Feng Shui family. I heard he is the best of his generation."

Looking at Xi Luobai again, Ji Qingzhi's eyes showed a little more admiration.

Their skills passed down from ancient times are almost lost, and not many people know about them, either because there are few descendants or they are fragmented.

Only the art of Feng Shui has evolved into today's aristocratic family.

Compared to other skills, it is the least credible one.

No one knows exactly how the Xi family reached their current status, but it is speculated that it has something to do with their abilities.

"Feng Shui?" Although Si Nan was educated by Ji Qingzhi since childhood, he still lacked some understanding of Chinese culture. "Chinese superstition?"

Ji Qingzhi glared at him, "Be careful what you say, or you'll start calling God."

Si Nan immediately thought of the hand seals in Chinese TV dramas, and hurriedly stepped forward to apologize to Xi Luobai.

"I'm sorry, I offended you with my words just now, please forgive me."

"No need." Xi Luobai smiled lightly, like a modest gentleman in white, gentle as jade. "As for Feng Shui, whether you believe it or not is entirely up to you."

Ji Qingzhi's eyes were full of appreciation, "As expected, you are the best among the younger generation. You speak differently."

Xi Luobai nodded, glanced at Ji Qingzhi, and said firmly: "You have had your fortune told at the Xi family."

Ji Qingzhi nodded, "That happened thirty years ago. I didn't expect you to be able to see it at a glance. It turns out that all the children of the Xi family are people with extraordinary abilities."

She had only been to the Xi family once, when she decided to reach out to the outside world and experience the world.

In order to ensure her a smooth trip, her family took her to the Xi family to have her fortune told.

The hexagram indicates that this trip will exceed her expectations and bring about a love affair.

At that time, the master also focused on her youngest son, Si Nan, saying that he had a heavenly appearance and a mysterious power in his body.

Ji Qingzhi automatically understood it as his talent for ancient music.

Even today, I still feel emotional whenever I think about it.

"Do you know Master Xi Chang?" she asked.

Xi Luobai's eyes were calm, "That's my uncle."

Ji Qingzhi asked: "Is he okay now?"

Xi Luobai's eyelashes drooped slightly, "He has passed away."

"Dead?" Ji Qingzhi was surprised. "When did it happen?"

Judging from his age, Master Xi Chang should be about the same age as me.

I've heard that people of the Xi family have short lifespans, and it seems to be true.

"Thirty years ago." Xi Luobai stared at Ji Qingzhi, then glanced at Si Nan.

The meaning is self-evident.

Ji Qingzhi pursed her lips.

The talent for ancient music is indeed an ability that ordinary people cannot understand.

But before her, the ancient music community often went to the Xi family to find fortune tellers in order to continue their business, and no such news was spread.

Why did Master Xi Chang die this time?

She went over the Master's words twice more in her mind, trying to recall some details.

But Xi Luobai's actions just now clearly pointed at Si Nan.

Ji Qingzhi really couldn't understand it.

Seeing her in a daze, Si Nan reminded her, "Mom, it's time to eat, what are you daydreaming about?"

Ji Qingzhi looked at him, then looked away after two seconds.

I'm afraid only the Xi family knows about this.

But if I were to answer her questions, I'm afraid it would be the same as Master Xi Chang.

She'd better wait until she really wants to slowly surface.

After dinner, Ji Qingzhi prepared to go back.

Before leaving, he specifically told Si Nan, "Stay well in other people's homes and don't cause trouble."

Si Nan said helplessly, "I know, Mom."

Although he is already an adult, Ji Qingzhi still treats him like a child and worries about everything.

Ji Qingzhi looked at Chu Peining's smooth, fair and translucent skin and couldn't help but touch it.

"Playing Yuefu music has certain requirements for the guqin. You don't need to use the one you had before. I'll have someone send it over. It probably won't be here by the weekend, so you can practice on the master's instrument."

Chu Peining nodded, looking obedient: "Thank you, Master."

Ji Qingzhi smiled brightly, "It's cold outside, you should go inside."

Si Nan looked unhappy, "Why don't you care about me so much?"

Ji Qingzhi glanced at him and said, "You have thick skin, so it's okay to be frozen for a while. You are nothing like a little girl, with delicate skin and tender flesh."

"I think you just accepted a new apprentice and you don't care about your son's life or death."

Ji Qingzhi: "That's good to know."

Si Nan had nothing to say.
