Chapter 23
"Father's words are serious. It's the son who can't bear the responsibility. He needs more experience."

Having said that, he was not polite in his strikes, and immediately ate a son of Bai Xiang.

Bai Xiang's seasoned eyes finally showed a hint of inquiry. He was becoming more and more unable to see through his son's thoughts.

Seeing his calm face, it seems that he is not fascinated by wealth, which is a good thing, but behind the scenes, he is a little uncertain whether he is really as good as his face.

The Bai family has no successors, and the three sons are not successful.

The boss is mediocre in talent, but he also likes to know his destiny. He doesn't fight to be an academician in the Imperial Academy, and he can live a stable life.

The fourth student had the temperament of a wandering cloud and a wild crane, and he was favored by the princess. His official career was completely ruined, but it was a blessing to have a foothold in the academy and the opportunity to display his talents.

Only the third child, with a deep mind, has been released as an official for many years. This time, the Ministry of Officials originally decided to be excellent, but he changed it abruptly to medium.

Not surprisingly, he still succeeded his original post.

Outsiders looked at him and said that he deliberately suppressed him because he was not liked by him as a bastard.

But only Bai Xiang knew in his heart that if his intentions were not right, climbing to a high position would only harm the court and the people.

Maybe it can also destroy the situation that the Bai family has finally earned today.

Therefore, he is not at ease.

In the officialdom of swords, guns, swords and halberds, only those who can see through the fog and distinguish right from wrong can fight for a bloody path.

Obviously, Bai Sanlang is not such a person.

The chess game was fiercely fought, and the two of them had the temperament of quick battles, and the time for a game of chess was over in less than two sticks of incense.

This time, Bai Chaoke made a narrow move, and a rare smile appeared on his serious face.

"Father agreed."

"Well, chess skills have improved. Go, go back to Qiongzhou after the Chinese New Year, the weather in the eastern capital is not very good, and Qiongzhou should be more supportive."

In a word, most of Bai Chaoke's heart became cold.

He squeezed his fingers towards the palm so that he would not lose his composure in public, and he answered yes respectfully to Bai Xiang before leaving.

Seeing his frivolous footsteps as he walked away, Bai Xiang frowned, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

After accompanying the eldest aunt to send off the female guests one by one, it was getting late.

Eldest brother Feng Jinxu had important things to do before he left, so the two siblings returned home after greeting Mrs. Bai and Prime Minister Bai.

After a day of tossing, Feng Jinyao felt her whole body was falling apart when she returned to Ning'an Courtyard.

Fortunately, Hydrangea is discerning, and immediately arranged for a bath.

The bucket is filled with flower petals left in early summer, and the water is filled with soothing meridian oil, while hydrangeas and clouds are waiting for you.

Feng Jinyao closed her eyes, her mind was full of thoughts about how the Feng family should go in the future.

In the previous life, after my grandmother's birthday banquet, the Feng family had a few days of peace, but what followed was like a nightmare.

After thinking about it, I feel that the problem lies in the performance appraisal.

Both the father and the eldest brother were sent out to be officials because they were rated as excellent in the performance appraisal, and both of them were also out of town.

If the matter of releasing it to the outside world is destroyed, will it be possible to escape this catastrophe?
Looking back on her previous life, the imperial decree was released in mid-April, so she still has time to make a good plan.

Just thinking about it, I heard a girl crying and complaining outside.

It is said that the aunt in the eldest brother's room has become agitated, and she has been yelling to hang the beam. The eldest lady has no idea at the moment, and she dare not disturb the old lady, so she begged her to take a look.

"Then Aunt Linlang is really annoying, because she gave birth to a brother, she made troubles day and night, and it was because of her good temper that she was able to handle it like this. Miss, how can I go?"

Hydrangea is straightforward and fast-talking, and the most unaccustomed thing is to bully the master, so both inside and outside the words are dissatisfaction with that aunt.

But Yun Xu interrupted her, "She's an aunt, you're a girl, pay attention to your identity, don't say the wrong thing, people will take the blame, you know?"

Xiuqiu was annoyed, 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.

"Let's go and see our precious aunt."

Feng Jinyao opened her eyes and looked outside, motioning for the two of them to wait for her to get up.

The heat made her cheeks flush, but her eyes were clear.

What a troublesome aunt, she wants to see who gave her such a big face, even dare to bully her sister-in-law like this!

Cold nights in winter.

Feng Jinyao wasn't wearing pink, but was wearing a big cloak, and walked towards the eldest brother's courtyard.

Hydrangea and Yunxu held up lamps on the left and right to illuminate the path for her.

The girl who came to pass the message was called Yuegui, she was the second-class envoy in the sister-in-law's room, and she looked very honest and well-behaved.

"Do you know what's going on with Auntie?"

The little girl had a look of embarrassment on her face, as a servant, she didn't dare to arrange the master at will, even if the other party was just an aunt, she was not something she could criticize, so she picked some words that were not too much, and tried to speak back to Feng Jinyao as calmly as possible.

"The young master sent someone to send a good set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones. He said it was a gift for the eldest brother to enter school. My aunt happened to see it, so..."

"So she's making a fuss, and wants to send her son to school too?"

Feng Jinyao answered the question and asked, there was no trace of emotion in her tone.

Yue Gui nodded, her face full of seriousness.

She didn't dare to say so many ugly things, for fear that others would find out and say that their wife was weak and deceitful.

Hmph, it really is restless.

In the previous life, her son entered the academy as a legitimate son, not to mention causing a lot of trouble, and even impeached his father and elder brother.

Her second nephew, if he is well-behaved and sensible, it's fine, but he was spoiled by his aunt and lawless, and he refused to obey discipline.

Today, she wants to see if she is still as hateful as before.

If this is the case, it will completely cut off his way to study.

While thinking, a group of people came to the yard.

Sure enough, Aunt Linlang's cries came out intermittently.

Feng Jinyao pushed the door open and saw this noisy scene.

Sister-in-law Wen slumped on the yellow rosewood armchair, wiping her tears with the handkerchief in her hand, and the girl next to her was patting her on the back, looking calm.

Standing beside her was the elder brother's eldest son, Feng Yunhe.

Born white, tender and beautiful, there is a faint aura of refusal to admit defeat in the small facial features.

It's just a six-year-old child, but at this moment, he stands with his hands behind his back like a little adult, looking at the crying aunt and younger brother who are rolling on the ground, his face is solemn and his eyes are dark.

On the contrary, Aunt Linlang, who was kneeling on the ground, was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the son next to her was also well-fed and fat.

He is obviously two years younger than Feng Yunhe, but his body is slightly taller.

At this moment, the concubine Feng Yunli's chubby face was full of disgust, and he shouted at his sister-in-law Wen Shi.
