The whole family wears it! Roll it up together! The envy of all the rich in Beijing

The Hong siblings didn't know that Bai Mengshang had returned. In the room prepared for them by their aunt, they found a desk and writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone.

The brother and sister both wrote letters immediately to tell their parents not to worry about them and that their aunt and her family treated them very well.

Their cousin met them at the city gate, their cousin helped themselves and their sister who had just got off the carriage without any disgust, the lady was even more kind, making them, who had never seen their grandmother, feel like the grandmother they had always dreamed of. Their aunt also prepared everything meticulously, and told their parents not to worry, they would be sensible.

After finishing the letter, I washed up and had a good sleep. I regained some energy and looked much better than when I just got off the carriage.

When the brother and sister came to the front yard, the Bai family's eyes lit up when they saw them. It was true that clothes make the man.

The brother and sister look somewhat similar to Hong Tianqiao, both with big almond eyes and straight noses. Hong Wenchu ​​is a great beauty, and Hong Wenyuan is also a handsome young man, and at first glance you can tell they are the daughters and sons of officials.

Although the two children were embarrassed, they wore them openly.

"Dad, these are my cousins."

"Good boy!"

The Hong siblings hurriedly greeted them.

"Wenchu|Wenyuan meets uncle!"

Bai Mengshang nodded and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, please sit down."

The family dinner begins.

In order to make the two children feel less restrained and unfamiliar, we even talked and laughed during the meal.

When there are no outsiders around, their family doesn't care about those things. But when there are outsiders, you still have to pay attention to table etiquette, otherwise people will say you are uncultured.

The main reason is that Bai Jingtong's family is used to eating together and talking about what happened during the day, and the lady is now also used to it.

When the Hong siblings saw Xuanrui, they were actually at the table and there was a small dish of meat for him to eat by himself. They were extremely surprised.

Is this the evil bird crow?

The brother and sister were so surprised that they didn't even have time to marvel at the delicious food on the table.

"Good children, don't be afraid. Although Xuanrui is a crow, our Xuanrui is really smart and sensible. He will never bring bad luck to our family."

The old lady spoke for Xuan Rui first. Originally, the family didn't want her to know, but when Bai Jintong was not at home, Xuan Rui ran around everywhere and ran to the old lady's place.

When the lady saw the marks of bandage on its wings, she knew it definitely did not fly in from outside. Finally, she confirmed that it was indeed raised by her granddaughter. She also discovered that Xuanrui could talk. Even Princess Lehui liked to play with Xuanrui when she came, and she accepted this cute little guy.

Now the first person to pay his respects to her every morning is Xuanrui.

The lady even treated Xuanrui as her grandson, and she was the one who first suggested asking Xuanrui to sit at the table.

The whole family knows about Xuanrui's existence. Xuanrui doesn't think of himself as a bird and just likes to be with his owners.

Letting Xuan Rui appear was also a deliberate way to give the Hong family siblings a heads-up, so that they wouldn't accidentally run into Zhazhahuo in the future. Anyway, Xuan Rui was already a member of their family now, and he had to be accepted by everyone.

"Hello, cousin!"

When Xuan Rui saw Hong Wenchu ​​and Hong Wenyuan looking at it, he greeted them formally.

"You're welcome, eat your food!"

Just two sentences from it almost made everyone burst into laughter.

"I didn't teach you this, but Xuan Rui is really smart. He knows how to be polite."

"Come on, come on, don't hesitate to eat more."

Bai Jin'an hurriedly stated that he was severely beaten by his father because Xuan Rui imitated his way of speaking, but he still liked this guy very much.

"You should call them cousins. You should call them Miss Cousin and Mr. Cousin."

Bai Jin'an was afraid that her cousin still had some opinions about Xuanrui, so she asked Xuanrui to change his words.

Xuanrui is quick to accept good advice.

"My dear cousin, how are you? I am here to greet you!"

Xuan Rui said this and nodded as a gesture of greeting.

"Ha ha……"

Xuanrui's appearance was really adorable, and it made the whole family laugh.

"It, it, it can actually talk?"

"Of course, I am a divine bird, so just saying something is nothing."

"Okay, eat yours."

Seeing that it was about to show off again, Bai Jintong introduced the origin of Xuanrui to her cousin.

After hearing this, Hong Wenchu ​​and Hong Wenyuan realized that the Bai family liked Xuanrui very much. They had come here to seek refuge and stay there, so what could they say?

Besides, Xuanrui is very sweet-mouthed and looks cute, so I’m not that scary anymore.

Under Xuanrui's eloquent words, and because the Hong siblings liked the Bai family very much, they also fell in love with Xuanrui.

This really illustrates what it means to love someone and love his dog.

"Wenyuan, your uncle has already found a school for you. One is Songbai Academy, and the other is Yushan Academy.

It is time to go to school as soon as possible. Now that I am here, I will go to the school with my uncle tomorrow to take an exam and meet the teacher.

But you can go to whichever academy you like more."

Songbai Academy was established by the government, while Yushan Academy was a private academy also recognized by the state. Both were relatively good academies in the capital, and the threshold for admission was the status of a scholar.

Hong Wenyuan passed the imperial examination and became a scholar at the age of fourteen. He was truly a genius. With the support of an official, all the academies were vying to recruit him.

When Hong Wenchu ​​and Hong Wenyuan heard what Bai Mengshang said, they hurriedly stood up and bowed to him.

"Thank you for your trouble, uncle. I will follow your instructions in everything."

After dinner, Bai Mengshang took Bai Jin'an and Hong Wenyuan to the study, and asked Bai Jin'an to test Hong Wenyuan's knowledge.

After all, he is a fake and not as good as his son, the real thing.

Hong Wenyuan went there very excitedly. He had always admired his cousin's literary talent, as his cousin was a student at the Imperial College!

Most people want to see him but can’t, and now he is his cousin!

Hong Tianqiao kept Hong Wenchu ​​and asked him how his parents were doing over there and what the situation was.

After finishing everything, he also wrote a letter to his brother and sister-in-law to express his safety.

Hong Tianqiao also specifically mentioned in the letter that if Hong Wenchu ​​wanted to find a husband in the capital, he should keep his eyes open and choose carefully.

She would definitely pick a good relative for Wenchu ​​that she liked, and tell her brother and sister-in-law not to worry, as a good marriage is never too late, especially since Wenchu ​​is only sixteen.

After the letter was written, it was given together with letters from the Hong siblings and two hundred taels of silver.

This is the money that Hong Tianqiao has earned from her business during this period. It is not much, but it can be of some use. There are also two pieces of cloth that she bought herself.

Bai Jintong also spent two points to buy some pills for treating colds and heatstroke, which is more practical.

There is nothing else, so it is better to give silver and leave tomorrow.

The next morning, the Hong siblings were surprised to see the princess coming to pick up their cousin to go to school.

Only then did I know that Bai Jintong was the princess's tutor and had entered the palace to study with the princesses.

"Goodbye, Master!

Goodbye, Sister Princess! "

Xuanrui has to send his master to school every morning, and also has to chat with Princess Lehui and call the princess's sisters along.

Bai Jintong discovered that the princesses' studies had slowed down during this period.

Especially in the etiquette and music classes, their performances were outstanding.

Without asking, I know that it should be the Emperor's birthday celebration, and these princesses will go on stage to perform.

One is to celebrate the birthday of their father, and the other is to show the talents of the Dragon Kingdom princesses to other countries who come to celebrate the birthday.

This time it is the emperor’s 40th birthday, and princesses and princes from the three surrounding countries have come to congratulate him. The princes and princesses of the Dragon Kingdom cannot lose face.

Bai Jintong remained calm and contented because those things had nothing to do with her.

However, what she never expected was that on the day before the Wanshou Festival, when she was returning home from school, she was stopped by a young eunuch.

"The Emperor has asked Miss Bai to come over. Please come with me."

She thought that the emperor called her probably because of General Hei again, so she didn't worry too much.

When she arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, before she had the chance to greet the Emperor, he spoke first.

"I heard that you were hit by a crow in the palace?"

Bai Jintong suddenly became nervous. Was the emperor going to bring up old issues?

"Your Majesty, yes."

"Bold!

Do you know that crows are ominous and evil birds in our dynasty? "
