Chapter 20
Dong'er, a clever little ghost, was at a loss.

My young lady didn't visit jewelry stores or buy snacks, but happily went to the old stalls to find a book called "Fire Pearl Forest", and then stayed in the room to study until midnight.

Weird.

Early the next morning, she dug out Erniang's calico bag and stuffed the little white fox into it. After thinking about it, she stuffed a few more chestnuts into her pocket.

While there were not many people in the academy, he slipped onto his seat with a bulging cloth bag on his shoulders.

"Little Bai, don't come out." She whispered.

The little fox nestled in the belly of the table, wagging the tip of its tail.

After a while, the crowd gradually gathered, and she subconsciously looked to the corner, ready to give a friendly smile.

However, it was empty, and no thin figure was seen.

"Why didn't big brother come?"

"Big brother?"

Several people around looked at each other in blank dismay, expressing unfamiliarity with this word.

"You mean the young master?" A voice came from the rear left.

"Yes, Brother Ji knows?" She greeted sweetly.

The young man is handsome and handsome, his name is Ji Yu, he is the grandson of the housekeeper.

Hou Ye saw that he was smart and studious, and thanked Steward Ji for his hard work for many years, so he granted permission to live in the mansion to follow him.

She remembered that this person was extremely competitive. When the accident happened in his previous life, he had just passed the exam.

Because he had no actual relationship with the Hou's Mansion, he escaped a catastrophe. As for whether his official career was affected, it is not known.

It's a pity that the political base is weak, even if they came to the door at the beginning, I believe they were powerless.

However, in this way, Xuanwuhou's mansion is quite a hidden dragon and crouching tiger.

Ji Yu looked at that childish little face, pursed his lips, and nodded:
"The servants of Zhuyuan said that the eldest young master fell ill last night and will probably lie in bed for a few days."

"I'm afraid it will take more than a few days." The eldest cousin sneered, "It won't take me a month to get up? I see, the seat of the young master must belong to the second young master Chu, and he took advantage of it."

It is obviously a compliment, but in fact there is a hint of ridicule hidden.

The second lady was born as a servant girl, and she served Master Hou for more than ten years, and Fang helped Zheng.

Several aunts and the main rooms of each house looked down upon them somewhat.

Chu Ye vaguely heard it, and his face turned red.

A small hand caressed the clenched fist and patted it lightly.

"Second brother, don't be as knowledgeable as them." Chu Yaoqing said softly.

If you get angry on the spot, it will seem like a fuss, and you will lose your mother's face.

Second Young Master Chu understood the truth, but he couldn't swallow this breath.

"Brother Qiao is right." A crisp voice rang out, "Father only has two sons, so it's not easy to pass on the throne to others. Er Niang taught that brothers should help each other and love each other. Eldest brother is weak and hard to work. The second brother can only work harder and shoulder the heavy responsibility, after all, everyone cannot do without the care of the Hou Mansion."

These words were spoken innocently, but no matter on the surface or inside, there was a meaning revealed.

Regardless of whether it is Chu Mu or Chu Ye, the title of title will never fall to you and others anyway. Don't forget that they are the ones who will make the decisions in the future.

Qiao Huai was choked upright, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, he opened the book angrily, and pretended to study.

The collateral cousins ​​who were watching the excitement also turned their heads away.

Chu Shutong turned sideways and cast a glance: "Compared to before, I have grown some brains."

She replied with a smile: "Thank you for the compliment, cousin."

"whispering sound."

Chu Ye wanted to clap his hands and applaud, and whispered to the third sister, "You must not offend my younger sister in the future, this guy is getting more and more slick."

"Brother, you are not as good as a child."

Chu Yaoqing sighed helplessly, and smiled at Yun Jiuqing.

At this time, Ge Lao walked in with square steps, and everyone immediately straightened their backs, and only the sound of reading books was heard in the room.

"The crane crows in Jiugao, and the sound is heard in the wild..."

She read absent-mindedly, and when she lowered her eyes to see Xiaobai poking his head, she knew that she must be unable to bear it any longer, and she was glad that she had already prepared for it.
