MTL - The Reborn Noble Daughter-Chapter 22 advice
Chapter 22 22. Advice
"Last time, the mother-in-law got a Persian cat as a tribute from a foreign vassal. She was very beautiful, and she has been raising her in the palace with delicious food. My sister-in-law went back last time, but she was greedy. I heard that this time there will be treasures sent as tribute. I don’t want to think about it anymore, if any merchants accompanying the team also bring it, I will have to pick a good one and give it to my sister-in-law."
Princess Wen Yi said with emotion.
Her sister-in-law loves to keep cats. She originally had three of them in the yard, all of which were treasures, but compared with the Persian cat, they were still a little less interesting, so she had always wanted them.
“I’m jealous when you two daughters-in-law care about each other. It’s rare for my sisters-in-law to do what they do.”
The Madam, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said this, which made Princess Wen Yi laugh.
"Mrs. Tai, you are praising me again. No one in Mantung knows that the three sisters-in-law in your house are the most virtuous and polite. They manage the house well and raise their children well. Last time I heard my eldest brother say, There is another martial arts examiner. I think in the martial arts examination next year, the number one scholar will definitely be someone from your family."
The wife did not answer, but a smile reached her eyes.
In the palace of General Hussar, there are three generations of military generals, especially her grandchildren, each one is more outstanding than the other, and they all look very good.
Suddenly, his eyes glanced at Bai Siruo and Feng Jinyao, and their eyes were a little more intimate than before.
“Grandma, let’s talk to the mothers. I’m going to look for my aunt to see if there’s anyone I can help with.” After saying that, he pulled Feng Jinyao to salute and left.
Haunted for a few steps and walked out of Shoukangyuan, he patted his chest with lingering fear.
"It's so scary. You don't know that the three eldest grandsons of the Madam's family are all like black bears in the forest. Every time I see them, I'm afraid that they can slap someone stupidly."
"Hahaha, are they as exaggerated as you said? I think the madam's grandchildren are pretty good, and they are on par with our Bai family."
Bai Siruo glared at her with a pair of phoenix eyes, "Laugh, laugh, be careful that grandma will give you a red line. Then I will see if you can laugh or not."
Feng Jinyao knew she was joking, but she gave him a step.
“Okay, I won’t tease you anymore, aren’t we going to find my aunt?”
“Well, but I still have to remind you, don’t hang out in front of the Madam. Her three eldest grandsons are really... martial arts stars descending to the earth. It’s better not to mess with those of us with small arms and legs.”
Somehow, because of this impression, Bai Siruo was very afraid of anyone who wanted to enter the feudal state through martial arts examinations.
I always feel that they are strong men with simple minds and well-developed limbs.
On the other side, Wei Lanxuan and others are also admiring plum blossoms at the moment.
Red sandalwood plum trees are planted in the garden next to the waterside pavilion. They are most beautiful in winter.
Auntie Lin arranged for people to tidy up the pavilion and put plenty of charcoal fire inside. It was not too cold to enjoy the plum blossoms in this cold weather.
Picking up the tea cup at hand, Liang Luo took a sip and said something with disapproval.
"Let me tell you, the tea in the Imperial Concubine's Palace is the best. I heard that it is all given by Your Majesty. The tea from outside always tastes tasteless."
Her words clearly meant that she wanted to support Wei Lanxuan. Her aunt was the most favored concubine in the dynasty, so she naturally felt very embarrassed.
After hearing what she said, the little anger he felt just now disappeared.
“You are so sweet. Last time I saw you liked the Luo Xue cat in my aunt’s palace. In a few days, another tribute will come. This time I asked my aunt to leave one for you to save you from greed.”
"real?"
Liang Luo's eyes lit up. She really liked cats, especially the Persian cats that were paid tribute by foreign vassals.
Not only does the coat have smooth color, but it also has different pupils, one blue and one yellow, which is unparalleled in beauty.
“When have I ever told a lie?”
“Sister Wei is still kind to me.” After saying this, he raised his head and glanced at Bai Sihan, the provocation in his eyes clearly revealed.
Seems to be saying, did you see it? I am the best sister beside her, you are just a pawn.
Bai Sihan was upset in her heart, but her face looked like a normal person. She had to lower her head under the eaves.
No wonder my mother had to go to Dongdu City even if she risked her life, so that she would no longer be dependent on others, and she would do the same in the future.
Isn’t it just a cat?
After she has a noble husband, she must take out her anger today on a **** like Liang Luo!
In Bai Mansion, the birthday banquet is coming to an end.
Su Cheng, who was drunk and dizzy in the front yard, was really carried away. Feng Er was detained in Shoukangyuan, so the matter of sending the guests away fell on Bai Chaoan and Feng Jinxu, the elders of the Bai family.
After seeing off the guests, the uncle and nephew had time to talk for a while.
“You have received an excellent score in this test. Do you want to go out and practice for a few years, or do you want to take a step up in Dali Temple? Have you thought about it?”
Uncle Bai Chaoan is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and the official performance appraisal is also closely related to their Hanlin Academy, so the news about him should be extra early.
Feng Jinxu shook his head, "My nephew will just listen to the arrangements. However, if it goes according to my wishes, I still want to go out and have a look. I will stay at the emperor's feet all day long and know nothing about the people outside. This official has done a good job. It’s boring.”
Bai Chaoan glanced at him appreciatively.
If you really want to talk about it, Feng Jinxu is the person who is most like his father, not only in appearance, but also in his mind.
However, it was in the early twenties. The official position has already achieved the Dali Temple of the Sixth Pin. This time, the performance has been settled, and it may be that he is the official position of five items like him.
He has no children, so he cares most about his eldest nephew.
His future was naturally of concern to Bai Chaoan, so he spoke to him in a serious and thoughtful manner.
"The Bai family is not prosperous. In your generation, you only have two daughters, Siruo Sihan, at home. When they go out, the family will be deserted. And there are no brothers from the mother's family to support them. Once we people leave, their We have to rely on you, my eldest cousin, to support them. Otherwise, if they are bullied by their husband’s family, they won’t know who to turn to to help them!”
His words are full of instructions to him.
Feng Jinxu's face became more serious, "Don't worry, uncle, as long as I'm here, I will never let my cousins be bullied."
“Okay, it’s good if you say this.”
After speaking, he patted his shoulder, sighed, put his hands behind his back, and walked toward the inner courtyard.
In the study room, Prime Minister Bai is sitting upright, and standing below him is Sanlang Bai Chaoke, with a respectful look, listening to his father's teachings.
“Come sit here and play chess with me.”
"yes."
The game of chess that Bai Xiang talks about is not the game of Go with black and white stones, but military chess.
Each side holds one side, and winning is a matter of life and death. Compared with Go, which slowly encircles and annihilates everything, he prefers military chess, which cuts through the mess quickly and leaves no retreat.
Among the three sons, Bai Sanlang has the best chess skills, which may be related to his careful thinking, but unfortunately he is not Bai Xiang's opponent.
“You don’t blame me for ruining your bright future, do you?”
