Chapter 23 23. Making trouble
Fathers words are serious, but the son is not qualified for the big responsibility and needs more experience.
Having said that, he was not polite in his attack, and immediately ate Bai Xiang's son.
Bai Xiang's old eyes finally showed a trace of inquiry. He was becoming increasingly unable to see through his son's thoughts.
Looking at his calm expression, he seemed not to be blinded by wealth, which was a good thing, but behind the scenes, he was a little unsure whether it was really what he looked like on the face.
The Bai family has no heirs, and the three sons are not those who will achieve great things.
The boss is mediocre, but he also knows his destiny. He is a academician at the Hanlin Academy.
The fourth son had the temperament of a wandering cloud and wild crane, and he became the princess, so his official career was completely ruined. However, it was a blessing to have a foothold in the academy and the opportunity to display his talents.
Only the third child, who has a deep mind and has been working as an official for many years, was originally rated as excellent by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but he abruptly changed it to middle.
No surprise, he will still take over the original position.
When outsiders saw him, they said it was because they did not like him because of his status as a concubine, so they deliberately suppressed him.
But only Xiang Bai knew in his heart that climbing to a high position would only harm the court and the people if he had evil intentions.
Maybe it can also destroy the situation that the Bai family has finally earned today.
So, he was worried.
In the officialdom of swords, guns, swords and halberds, only those who can see through the fog and distinguish right from wrong can fight their way out.
Obviously, Bai Sanlang is not such a person.
The chess game was a fierce fight, both of them were quick to decide, and a game of chess was over in just two sticks of incense.
This time, Bai Chaoke narrowly succeeded, and a rare smile appeared on his serious face.
Father accepted it.
"Well, my chess skills have improved. Go ahead and go back to Qiongzhou after the New Year. The climate in Dongdu City is not very good, and Qiongzhou is better for supporting people."
One sentence made Bai Chaoke's heart feel cold.
Hands pinched hard into the palm of his hand to prevent himself from losing his composure in public. He respectfully answered "yes" to Mr. Bai before leaving.
Looking at the hasty pace of his steps as he walked away, Bai Xiang frowned, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
After accompanying my eldest aunt to see off the female guests one by one, it was getting late.
Eldest brother Feng Jinxu had important matters to attend to and left early, so the brother and sister returned home after paying their respects to Mrs. Bai and Prime Minister Bai.
After a day of hard work, Feng Jinyao felt as if her whole body was falling apart when she returned to Ning'an Courtyard.
Fortunately, Hydrangea is a discerning person and arranged a bath immediately.
The bucket was filled with flower petals from early summer, and oil to soothe the meridians was put in the water. Hydrangeas and clouds were waiting beside it.
Feng Jinyao closed her eyes, thinking about how the Feng family would go in the future.
In the last life, after my grandmothers birthday party, the Feng family lived a peaceful life for a few days, but what followed was like a nightmare.
Thinking about it, I feel that the problem lies in performance appraisal.
My father and eldest brother were both sent to work as officials because of their excellent performance in the examination. Both of them also worked in other places.
If the release was sabotaged, would it be possible to avoid this disaster?
Looking back on her previous life, the imperial edict was issued in mid-April. So, she still had time to plan carefully.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a girl coming from outside crying and reporting.
It is said that the aunt in the eldest brother's room made a fuss and clamored to hang the beam. The eldest lady had no idea at the moment and did not dare to disturb the master and his wife, so she begged her to go and have a look.
"That Aunt Linlang is really annoying. She makes trouble day and night because she has given birth to a brother. It's because of my good temper that she lets her take control of it like this. What do you think, Miss, do you want to go?"
Xiangqiu is an outspoken person, and the thing she dislikes the most is being a slave and bullying her master, so her words are full of dissatisfaction with the aunt. But Yunxu interrupted her, "She is the aunt, and you are the girl. Pay attention to your identity and don't say the wrong thing and let others take advantage of it. Do you understand?"
Hydrangea was angry, but she also knew that Yunxu was doing it for her own good, so she kept her mouth shut, but her eyes were full of displeasure.
Lets go and see our precious aunt.
Feng Jinyao opened her eyes and looked outside, signaling the two of them to wait for her to get up.
Her cheeks were flushed by the heat, but her eyes were clear.
What a troublesome aunt, she wanted to see who gave her such a big face that even her sister-in-law dared to bully her like this!
It is cold on the road in the dark winter nights.
Feng Jinyao was wearing no pink and a large cloak, and walked towards her eldest brother's courtyard.
Hydrangea and cloud catkins held up lamps on the left and right to illuminate the path under her feet.
The girl who came to deliver the message is called Yue Gui. She is the second-class female servant in the sister-in-law's room. She seems to be very honest and well-behaved.
Do you know what my aunt is causing trouble?
The little girl looked embarrassed. The servant did not dare to arrange the master at will. Even if the other party was just an aunt, she was not someone she could comment on. So she chose some words that were not excessive and tried to reply to Feng Jinyao as calmly as possible.
The eldest young master sent someone a set of fine pens, inks, paper and inkstones. He said they were a gift for the eldest brother to enter school. My aunt happened to see them, so..."
So she is making a fuss and wants to send her son to school, right?
Feng Jinyao asked, without a trace of emotion in her tone.
Yue Gui nodded, her face full of solemnity.
She did not dare to say many unpleasant things to others, for fear that others would find out and say that their wives were weak and could be bullied.
Hmph, he is indeed restless.
In the last life, her son pretended to be his legitimate son and entered the academy. Not only did he cause a lot of trouble, but he also caused his father and eldest brother to be impeached.
Her second nephew, it would be fine if he was a well-behaved and sensible person, but he was so spoiled by his aunt that he became lawless and refused to be disciplined.
Today she wants to see if she is still as hateful as before.
If this is the case, then his way of entering school must be completely cut off.
While thinking, I saw a group of people coming to the yard.
Sure enough, Aunt Linlangs cries could be heard intermittently.
Feng Jinyao opened the door and saw this noisy scene.
Sister-in-law Wen Shi fell down on the huanghuali wood armchair, wiping her tears with the handkerchief in her hand. The girl next to her was patting her on the back, looking clean.
Standing next to her is her eldest brother's eldest son, Feng Yunhe.
She is fair, tender and beautiful, and her small facial features reveal an aura of unwillingness to admit defeat.
He is just a six-year-old child, but at this moment he is standing with his hands behind his hands like a little adult, looking at his aunt and concubine who are rolling on the ground and crying, with a solemn expression and dark eyes.
On the contrary, Aunt Linlang was kneeling on the ground. Not only was she well-dressed, but her son next to her was also well-fed and fat.
Obviously two years younger than Feng Yunhe, but slightly taller.
At this moment, the chubby little face of the concubine Feng Yunli was full of disgust, and she shouted at her sister-in-law Wen Shi.
