Lu Jiao was stunned. He looked at Ji Shu in disbelief. He opened his mouth several times but was speechless.
This was so sudden that he wouldn't even dare to dream about it.
Lu Jiao squeezed his arm hard, grimacing in pain, and his eyes immediately turned red.
He knelt on the ground, "Lu Jiao is from a humble background, and he worked with Jinxing to deceive Madam. How can he be qualified to be Madam's adopted brother..."
"I said if you have it, you have it. I just ask if you are willing?"
"W-yes!"
Lu Jiao couldn't go against his true intention. He wanted to sit in the school with integrity and serve his family and country like other men.
Ji Shu smiled, "That's right. Do you have anything important to pack in your residence in the school?"
"There are also a few pieces of clothes, quilts and household registration, and some papers and pens I picked up..."
Lu Jiao hurriedly said: "I can just clean up myself. The place I live is very close to..., it will contaminate Madam."
"I'll ask someone to get your household registration later. I'll have someone buy new ones for you as well, okay?"
Facing Ji Shu's gentle inquiry, Lu Jiao could only nod in agreement.
After a while, Xitao and Qingtan came back together, and Ji Shu told them about adopting Lu Jiao.
Unexpectedly, after leaving for less than a quarter of an hour, Ji Shu found himself a foster brother. Both Xitao and Qingtan were very surprised.
However, the two of them didn't say much. After returning to Changleyuan and closing the door, Xitao asked:
"Miss, this decision is too sudden. What if the master and madam disagree?"
"Then I will adopt him as my adopted son, otherwise it will be fine if he doesn't register. Lu Jiao has good conduct and is a very smart child. His future should not be buried by his birth background."
Ji Shu is a person who cherishes talents, not to mention that Lu Jiao was very filial to her in his previous life. Such a child should not end up like that in his previous life.
"Miss, everything has been arranged."
Qingtan led the renovated Lu Jiao into the room. Lu Jiao was very handsome in new clothes, but he was still a little constrained. He had more than enough talent and lack of courage.
"lady……"
"Straighten up and straighten your back."
Ji Shu gave the order, and Lu Jiao did it without thinking. He stood upright with his hands by his side, like a small poplar.
Ji Shu then smiled and said, "This will always be the case from now on. You have to remember that from now on you will be my Ji Shu's younger brother. You must act vigorously and resolutely, and you must not be timid. We don't bully others, but we can't let others bully us either." Yes. Whose children are those who are beating you in the library today?"
"The first one is Master Sun from Zhao Shoufu's family, and the other two are the young master from Du Tongzheng's family and the young master from Zhenfusi."
"It's the Zhao family again..."
Ji Shu frowned impatiently. Now that his relatives are in power, the Zhao family is almost walking around the capital. It's really an eyesore.
"I'll go to the academy with you tomorrow."
The carriage quietly stopped at the back door of Wudinghou Mansion, with the bright moon hanging high. After confirming that no one was around, Jiang Fu got out of the carriage.
She entered the Hou Mansion in despair, thinking about what happened during the day, Jiang Fu wiped her tears and became confused.
"Miss, why don't we go back to the courtyard?"
"I'm going to find the second master."
She was in urgent need of Qi Chengxu's comfort now. She had to ask Qi Chengxu for some cash and send it to Zuodu Censor's Mansion tomorrow.
Jiang Fu entered Qi Chengxu's yard and saw the study light on, so she walked over. Unexpectedly, as soon as she reached the corridor, she saw a dazzling scene under the window!
I saw Qi Chengxu sitting behind the desk, and Ji Feifei, with a blushing face, was leaning against him, and her hands were not being honest enough to rub Qi Chengxu's body, even touching the bottom of the table!
"!"
Jiang Fu's head exploded with a bang. She rushed over, pushed open the door, and yelled:
"What are you doing?!"
