Chapter 324 - Small Shadow

Only after hearing the explanation from Third Aunt Liang Hongdan and his mother Xiao Sumei did Ji Feng finally understand. It turned out that this time's meal at the old tutor's place wasn't initiated by him. It was because he'd heard that the old tutor had been discharged and that his father and uncle were going to visit him, they planned to eat there.

In reality, Ji Feng was very clear that it was not that simple to have a meal at the old man's place. He could visit the old man, but if he wanted to eat there, he had to inform the nanny in advance.

However, the old tutor's nanny wasn't an ordinary domestic worker. These were all on record in the relevant department and could be counted as official staff. Furthermore, they were all of quite high rank.

Therefore, if it was just two or three people, it wouldn't be a problem to have a meal with the lordmaster. If there were more people, then they would have to notify him in advance.

Ji Feng only heard about these things after he came to Yan Jing.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, a gathering with a large number of people was rare at the lordmaster's place. After all, if there was a large amount of people, it would affect the lordmaster's rest as well.

From the looks of it, his father and uncle must have been extremely happy, which was why they suggested going to eat at the old man's place.

In fact, Ji Feng also knew what the old man's recovery meant to the entire Ji Clan. Naturally, he could understand his father's and his uncle's feelings.

As for Ji Feng, he heaved a long sigh of relief. As long as the old man recovered, his father would have enough time to rest.

Since her son had come, she was naturally overjoyed. It had been half a year since she had seen her son, and Xiao Sumei sometimes dreamed of him, but because it was inconvenient for her to travel, she couldn't go to Jiang Prefecture to see him. Furthermore, she hadn't been happy during this period of time, so Xiao Sumei had been missing her son a lot.

Now, not only had her son come, but he was also much more mature than before. How could she not be happy when she had made Zhang Yun'e and the others flee in embarra.s.sment?

Seeing his mother and Third Aunt busily working in the kitchen, Ji Feng wanted to help them, but he was chased out of the kitchen.

It had been a long time since he had last seen his son. Naturally, Xiao Sumei wanted to prepare a rich lunch for him.

”Aunt and Third Aunt actually aren't that easy either.” Ji Shaolei and Ji Feng chatted for a while before he suddenly said this.

Ji Feng was startled, but he immediately nodded.

It was not easy.

This was not to say that their lives were difficult, but rather that they could no longer be as free as the common people in their private lives.

With their status, if they wanted to partic.i.p.ate in any kind of entertainment, they would first have to consider whether or not it would cause any bad effects. This was because their every word and action would receive the attention of others, directly affecting their husband's work.

It would be even more inconvenient if he wanted to travel.

Naturally, there was no lack of guards and bodyguards. Although it couldn't be said that they were in a rush, but at least they had to do their job safely. In this way, no matter where they were going, they would be able to muster up a large number of people. This way, the effect would be very bad.

This was also the reason why although Xiao Sumei missed her son, it was inconvenient for her to visit him in Jiang Prefecture.

For people like Qiao Rong who just left, Xiao Sumei and Liang Hongdan were not suitable because their ident.i.ties were really different.

”San-er, I don't think it's too common to go to the old man's house for dinner tonight.” Ji Shaolei picked up the teacup on the tea table and drank some water to moisten his throat.

”What do you mean?” Ji Feng was taken aback. Other than troubling the staff, what else could he do for a meal at the old man's place?

”Second brother, you mean to say that Zhang Yun'e coming here to cause trouble will be heard by the old man?” Ji Feng seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but ask.

”This is just a small matter!” Ji Shaolei shook his head and laughed, ”Since the old gramps is old, he naturally won't meddle in all matters. Therefore, even if Zhang Yuner came to cause trouble, even if he knew, he would not bring it up. After all, these are the matters of the younger generation.

”Then what you mean is …” Ji Feng was perplexed.

Ji Shaorei raised his eyebrows and laughed, ”We are not the only ones who are concerned with the old gramps. Heh! Other people will definitely pay close attention to this matter as well. If we don't personally see it, we probably won't even be able to eat! ”

Ji Feng instantly understood what he meant and couldn't help but laugh involuntarily.

”That's why I say, it will probably be very lively tonight. You have to prepare yourself mentally first!” Ji Shalei reminded.

Ji Feng laughed, ”Prepare what? What was there to prepare? We're just going to have a meal at Grandfather's home, do you think anyone can say anything? ”

”You …” Ji Shalei shook his head with a smile. He didn't believe that Ji Feng wouldn't understand. Seeing his nonchalant att.i.tude, Ji Shalei didn't say anything. Clearly, this kid knew better than anyone, and was just not saying anything.

”The two of you, come over for dinner!” The voice of his mother, Xiao Sumei, came over.

Ji Feng laughed, ”Second brother, it's time to eat!”

What surprised Ji Feng was that during dinner time, the female guard actually sat down at the dining table as well. However, the way she looked at Ji Feng seemed somewhat unfriendly as she glared fiercely at him from time to time.

”This …” Ji Feng didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. She didn't do her duty, but on the contrary, she still made sense?

”Little Shadow, ignore him and eat more food.” Xiao Sumei also fiercely glared at her son before she continued to feed the female guard, appearing very intimate.

Ji Feng opened and closed his mouth, but ultimately, he shook his head and smiled. However, he felt it was strange. His mother's att.i.tude towards Little Ying seemed to be a little too intimate.
