Yao Chaoyang led Qingfeng and Qingshuang to sit down separately.

"Where is my uncle going to go alone, is he going to Yancheng to see my mother and us?" Qingshuang asked with a smile, as if there was anticipation in her eyes.

"There are some affairs in the family that need to be dealt with, but because they are relatively secret, you can't bring too many people. Originally, he also brought some entourage, but he was separated when he passed through Lianzhou. In fact, my uncle has been to Yancheng several times and wants to see your mother, but she refuses to see me. ”

"Why? Aren't you your mother's own brother? "Qingshuang Daqi, generally married women will keep in touch with the family, after all, their status in the family is sometimes based on the background of their mother's family.

"Uncle doesn't know, when you go back, help me ask your mother, uncle also wants to know." Yao Chaoyang thought of his sister who had been close to him since he was a child, and remembered the anger and worry when his sister didn't want to see him.

"Good. Frost will definitely ask. When the time comes, I will also pick up my uncle as a guest. Qingshuang assured solemnly.

"Is Lianzhou so flooded?" Qingfeng is most concerned about the problem of the floods in Lianzhou, not because of how compassionate he is, but because of when he will be able to return to Shengjing.

"Hehe, it's not that the flooding is serious, it's because of the displaced people." Yao Chaoyang remembered the scene he saw when he came out of Lianzhou, and felt deeply glad that he was outside the city at that time.

"Do the homeless disobey discipline? Wouldn't it be okay to just drive them out of the city? Qingfeng was a little puzzled.

"Of course it would be possible if there were only a few people, but now there are tens of thousands of displaced people, and if it is not handled properly, it will cause a catastrophe." Yao Chaoyang is a businessman, and he is not good at handling government affairs, not to mention that he has no relevant connections, so this matter is not easy to handle.

"So what should be done?" Qingfeng frowned and asked.

"This is not easy to deal with, if it is an uncle who does not know how to deal with it, maybe those big families can handle it well, they must have manpower, and they must have a lot of food and other materials. If it was just those city officials, without the cooperation of the local family, this matter would not be handled well. Yao Chaoyang shook his head, feeling sorry for those city officials. Those families may have been cooperating with the displacement incident now, but now the chaos is not easy to control. What's more, there may be some other families behind this matter, helping to make plans and preparing to reap the benefits of the fisherman, otherwise it would not have been possible to form such a chaotic situation in just a few days, but these are not easy to explain to the two children.

"It's so complicated." Qingfeng thought about it and felt that it seemed to be a little tricky, but Qingfeng felt that he was still small, if he was older, he might not be able to deal with such a thing, and he saw that his uncle's gaze was a little lighter.

"Uncle and let's talk about my father and mother." Qingshuang was a little dissatisfied when she saw her brother and uncle talking about irrelevant things. I wonder how my father and mother came together when they were both engaged, as a little girl who was only ten years old, but because she was born in a family, she was a little precocious and ignorant of love, full of imagination, and felt that the two of them were desperate to be together, although they were sorry for the family, but they were very romantic.

Under the maid's reminder, Qingfeng and Qingshuang had to leave their uncle's room and return to their own room. But Qingshuang couldn't sleep, and insisted that her brother accompany her to talk more.

"Brother, I'm really angry. Father and mother are a couple who love each other, but what are they doing just to let their mother be a concubine. How can I say that my mother is also the daughter of the Yao family, and she was wronged like this. Qingshuang pouted a little dissatisfied.

"It's probably fate." Qingfeng is already twelve years old, and has been educated for more than ten years in the Bai family with the Bai family's sisters-in-law, and already has the ability to think independently. Qingfeng didn't think his parents were doing the right thing.

"Brother, will you accept your fate?" Qingfeng was stunned, of course not. Suddenly smiled, if it were him, what would he do? Wouldn't I be like my father? Marry a wife who can bring benefits to yourself, and then take your beloved woman as a concubine and take it with you.

"Daddy said back then that he wanted his mother to be his wife. Didn't my uncle just say that my father married the Jiang family in order to catch up with the Feng family? Now that our relationship with the Feng family is already in-law, what scruples do we have? "Qingshuang doesn't think as much as Qingfeng. I think that my mother didn't even want the family in order to be with my father, but my father failed to fulfill his promise, how painful should my mother be at that time?

"You think too simply, the Jiang family, like our Liu family, is also one of the eight major families. The Jiang family is married to the daughter of the Jiang family. If there is no valid reason, it is impossible to raise a wife. Qingfeng shook his head, looking a little confused.

"Then let my mother continue to be wronged like this?" Qingshuang was a little excited.

"What's your solution?" Qingfeng shook his head again, feeling that Qingshuang's idea was a little unrealistic.

"I heard that the second aunt's sister-in-law is much younger than the eldest son of the Feng family? Do you know this? Qingshuang suddenly lowered her voice.

"I have indeed heard it in Beijing over the years, and I heard that my uncle dotes on that concubine very much, and Feng Guanyun, the eldest son of the Feng family, uses the name of the lineage. There are rumors that he may inherit the Feng family in the future. He shook his head as he spoke, "But the rumors are too credible, you can also see how difficult I am now, the old lady has never recruited me, let alone sending magic weapons and the like, the family has always paid great attention to the difference between the concubines and the concubines." ”

"I hope my mother can become a flat wife as soon as possible, so that we will also be sons and daughters." Qingshuang still didn't want to give up, after all, his father did promise his mother to let his mother have a flat wife in Chengdu, not to mention that his father has always doted on his two siblings the most. If there has been no hope, maybe Qingshuang may have been a concubine all the time, but suddenly it is possible to get all this, how can Qingshuang let it go?

Thinking of Qingwu, who was careful on weekdays, and thinking of Changning, who was jealous of him, Qingshuang's desire to become a concubine became even stronger.

"It's not impossible. Uncle Bai has a flat wife. It used to be just a concubine. "Thinking about the treatment between the son-in-law and the concubine, and the future achievements, Qingfeng is also a little moved.

"Oh? How do they do it? Qingshuang felt that there was another glimmer of hope in this matter.

"I heard that there is a brother who worships under the head of the Haoyang Sect." Qingfeng's tone was filled with envy.

"Then we have to work hard." Qingshuang decided to cultivate Xuanqi well in the future, and also worship the Haoyang Sect in the future.

"Hmm." Although Chang'an agreed, his eyes drifted away, not knowing what he was thinking.

After Liu Wenyu arranged the affairs, he went to Yao Chaoyang's room. The two talked until midnight. Changning could still hear Yao Chaoyang yelling or slapping the table from time to time in his room.
