"You... Mother, did you hear what Big Brother said? He's acting like our Si Yan is completely worthless!" Xiang Mingli whined.
Xiang Siyan kept his head down and said nothing.
"Eldest Son, Si Yan's grades have improved a lot. Getting into Lou Mountain Academy shouldn't be a problem," the Old Madam said, also a little displeased. He was, after all, her only precious grandson.
"If that's the case, then he should go take the exam. What's the meaning of coming back here crying and sniveling?"
"Well..."
Xiang Mingli fell silent. 'If only Lou Mountain Academy were that easy to get into,' he thought. 'If someone could just pull a few strings, he might have a chance.'
"Big Brother, you know how difficult it is to get into Lou Mountain Academy. I was hoping you could go and put in a good word for him." For her son's sake, Mrs. Wang was truly casting aside all pride.
