Transformed into a vicious stepmother, invincible

Baili Mo fanned himself with his folding fan and took a step back to distance himself from Chen. "Oh? Did your son pass the imperial examination?"

Lin Yashu and Lin Rongle heard the noise and peeked out of Ye Lingche's house to see what was going on.

Chen's smile froze, and she coughed lightly: "I will take the county exam next year, and I will be a scholar in two years."

Qi Decheng interrupted: "Master Zhuangyuan, don't listen to her. Her son has taken the county exam five times and failed every time!"

Baili Mo frowned: "The county exam is the first hurdle in the imperial examination. You haven't been able to pass it for five years, but what's the secret?"

"Just, I just want him to study for a few more years. My son has high ambitions and wants to get first place in the county exam!" said Chen.

"Studying requires not only talent but also hard work. If you can't even pass the county exam in five years, if it's the student's own problem, it means you are not suitable for this path." Baili Mo said.

Mrs. Chen was anxious: "How could that be? The teachers in our village all praised my son for his intelligence. He knows so many words. He is so smart!"

Qi Decheng shook his head and said disdainfully, "He only has a good temper as an official. If it were me, I wouldn't pay any attention to him. Not a word he said enters my brain."

Aunt Wang lowered her head and said softly, "I'm going inside to help Sui'an clean up."

She was afraid that if she stayed there for too long, her sister-in-law would scold her for not helping out.

"Then I'll go back and help my wife with work." Qi Decheng also left.

Baili Mo also wanted to find an excuse to leave, but she had to stay in the Lin family and wait for someone, so it was not easy to leave.

"Well, I'm short on time. If your child is free right now, you can have him come over and I'll check on his homework."

When Chen heard this, she was overjoyed: "Okay, I'll go find my son right away!" and ran away.

After seeing the man run away, Baili Mo retreated into the house to look for Bai Sui'an.

"An An, what is your relationship with that person just now?"

Aunt Wang looked at Bai Sui'an with an embarrassed expression. Why were Mr. Baili and Bai Sui'an so close?

Bai Sui'an didn't even raise his head and said, "The relationship is average, but she values her own children very much. You can help take a look."

"That's fine." Baili Mo closed his fan and was about to leave when he turned back and asked, "Shall I go talk to your husband for a while?"

"Let Rong Kang take you there."

"Let's go."

There were only two adults left in the room. Aunt Wang asked, "My sister-in-law had an argument with you the other day, and you still asked Mr. Baili to help her?"

"Then when I came back, you didn't come up to ask me where I went yesterday?"

"I'm different..."

Bai Sui'an smiled and said, "Okay, I know you have good intentions, Auntie. I already beat Auntie Chen the day before yesterday, and the matter is over. She just doesn't understand reason. She's afraid that the child won't pass the county exam again, so she blames me in advance. I understand reason, so naturally I won't argue with her."

Aunt Wang was stunned when she heard this, then she smiled and said, "You have a point. We are just ordinary people who don't understand this."

"It has nothing to do with whether you are a rough person or not, it has to do with experience. Even if you can't read, you will understand these principles in the future. Who hasn't been confused when they were young and ignorant?"

"You make it seem like you're older than me."

"Haha, I just read some books before."

Looking at the other side, Lin Rongkang took Baili Mo to Ye Lingche's house.

Lin Rongle and Lin Yashu were in this room earlier. Lin Rongle knew that he would leave home to study in the future, so he came to apologize to Ye Lingche.

Lin Yashu couldn't bear to leave her brother, so she wanted to spend more time with Lin Rongle.

"I am able to make this trip thanks to my mother. The teacher said that she accepted me as her student because of my mother's face." Lin Rongle said happily.

Ye Lingche's eyes were deep. If he had not checked Baili Mo beforehand, he would have suspected that the other party was an insider of Tianxuan Kingdom.

"Study hard." Ye Lingche patted Lin Rongle's shoulder.

Baili Mo stood at the door, blocking a large area of light.

Everyone in the room looked towards the door. After Lin Rongkang brought the people in, he went out to play with Chang An.

"Hello again, Hunter Lin." Baili Mo sat down on the bed, pursed his lips and smiled.

"It's my honor that you still remember me, sir." Ye Lingche said.

Baili Mo turned around and asked Lin Rongle to take the person away: "Lele, take your sister out to play. I want to talk to your father about some private matters."

"it is good."

After Lin Rongle and Lin Yashu left, Baili Mo asked, "Whose disciple are you from?"

It's a very direct question. Now the various princes' forces in the imperial city are secretly competing with each other. Especially since the crown prince has been missing for two years, the position of the Eastern Palace has been vacant, and many princes are coveting this position.

Ye Lingche: "I don't understand what you are saying, sir."

"You are from the palace, right? Yi Xiaochou is not easy to get." Baili Mo narrowed his eyes and stared at Ye Lingche's face. "Your beard is too ugly. I can't see anything."

"I'm just an ordinary hunter. I saved someone before. He heard that my child needed a husband, so he told me your identity and promised me..."

"Come on, come on, stop talking so much. I know you have a way to get Yixiaochou. I couldn't resist drinking the jar you sent me yesterday. Next time, prepare more for me. I will take good care of your children."

The originally serious conversation turned into a drunkard begging for wine. For some reason, Ye Lingche still couldn't relax.

He didn't say anything, so Baili Mo continued, "No matter which prince you are a disciple of, let me make it clear to you that my students are only loyal to the emperor. Put away your little thoughts."

Ye Lingche nodded: "Okay."

"You have no objection?"

"none."

"But I do." Baili Mo folded his arms and looked at Ye Lingche, then said with a hint of disdain, "Although you're injured and not in a good mood, could you please take care of your appearance? You look really ugly with this beard on your face. How could An An be willing to marry you in the first place?"

"An An?" Ye Lingche frowned. Bai Sui'an hadn't told him that she and Baili Mo had such a good relationship.

"Your wife and I hit it off right away." Baili Mo smiled smugly. "She doesn't seem to know your background. If you intend to drag her into the vortex of the court, I will chop off your head and then take her away."

"Sir, are my wife and I old acquaintances?" Ye Lingche asked.

"It's said that we hit it off right away, but of course we've never met before." Baili Mo stood up. "That's all for now. Remember to get me a few more jars of Yi Xiao Chou. I'm leaving now."

"it is good."

Lin Yashu's face didn't look very good. When she saw Baili Mo coming out, she hurried into her room.

Her hearing was quite sharp, and she heard the conversation between her father and Baili Mo just now.

Although it didn't go directly to the imperial court, one could tell from the tone that it was a dangerous place.

The little girl's face turned pale, and she had only one thought in her mind: Daddy was going to send her stepmother to a dangerous place.

After entering the house, Lin Yashu threw herself into Bai Sui'an's arms.

"What's wrong?" Bai Sui'an hugged his daughter naturally.

Lin Yashu wanted to speak frankly, but she realized that this would be betraying her own father. When the words came to her lips, she felt guilty no matter what she did.

So she said, "Brother won't be home anymore. Can you take me with you when you go out? I want to protect you."

Bai Sui'an was a little surprised and asked with a smile, "I'm not going to any dangerous place, so why do I need you to protect me? Besides, if you go with me, don't you want me to protect you?"

"No...it's different. I can help you scream for help!"
