Seeing that the more she talked, the more outrageous it became, Mama Du hurriedly pulled her to sit down and said, "Madam, you can't talk nonsense, although Ning Xiangyuan is your person, but if you accidentally spread it, how can it be good?" Last time I advised you, why did you forget, I still haven't told you something, I heard that the old prime minister wants to recommend the eldest young master to Mr. Dongfang as an apprentice, this is a great deal! ”

When Lu Shi heard this, he immediately forgot to be angry, and asked in surprise, "But really?" ”

"It's true, as soon as the eldest lady came back, she happily told the old lady, which made the old lady happy, and told the grandfather to take care of it properly, and ensure that the eldest young master can enter Mr. Dongfang's door!" Mama Du was slightly relieved to see that she was no longer angry.

Lu Shi frowned at first, then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Great, our chance has come!" ”

Mama Du looked at her puzzled, Lu smiled and said, "If Bai Muchen didn't go to it, and I Xuan'er entered Mr. Dongfang's door, then in the future, can the title of the Duke of this country be given to Bai Muchen?" Isn't that a good opportunity to come to your door? ”

Lu's heart was happily filled with honey, and his wishful thinking crackled, as if this opportunity to apprentice was Bai Gaoxuan's.

Mama Du asked suspiciously, "Why can't the eldest young master go, but the second young master can?" ”

"Hmph, why does Bai Muchen's stupid boy fight with my Xuan'er, I will never give him this opportunity, if he worships under Mr. Dongfang, then in the future, I want Xuan'er to inherit the title, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult, but if Xuan'er gets this opportunity, things will be reversed, they are all Lu Xiang's grandsons, my father must not be so partial, right?" Lu said.

Mama Du looked at her expression, and knew what kind of idea the Lu family had again, she would definitely make the eldest young master unable to go to apprenticeship, and give up the opportunity to the second young master, although Mama Du was also optimistic, but she always felt that it would not go so smoothly, that the eldest lady was not a fuel-efficient lamp, could she give up the opportunity so easily?

But Lu's abacus beads had already begun to calculate carefully, and the sparkle in her eyes was determined to be great, and she felt that this was the best news she had heard in a long time. Lu Qingyun of the Lu family's house is under the door of Mr. Dongfang, so he is still a minor, he is already famous, and he has made friends with many kings and grandsons, and his future future can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.

"Mama, go and call Xiaolu, I have something to tell her!" Lu suddenly smiled a little deeper, and his eyes flickered.

Mama Du didn't dare to disobey, so she immediately responded, and then retreated, thinking that Mrs. must be going to do something to the eldest young master, and the struggle in this back house will always be so cruel.

After Xiao Lu was called Ning Xiangyuan, Bai Mu Hibiscus called Bai Muchen to Jin Lan Yuan, and saw that Xiao Lu, who had been with his younger brother, did not come, so he asked in surprise: "Chen'er, where is Xiao Lu next to you?" ”

"Oh...... She has something to do, but what does my sister have to explain to her? Bai Muchen asked indifferently.

Bai Mu Hibiscus shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just a little strange!" I have something to discuss with you! ”

"What's the matter? My sister just said that it was. Bai Muchen asked with some curiosity.

Bai Mujin nodded and asked, "Have you heard of Mr. Dongfang?" ”

"Of course, it's that Da Hongru, the master in the school often mentions it, with full respect and worship in his tone, he must be a great person!" Bai Muchen replied truthfully.

Bai Mujin smiled, and then said, "Then if my sister has a way for you to worship Mr. Dongfang, are you willing?" ”

Bai Muchen's eyes widened in shock, although he didn't know the details of Mr. Dongfang very well, but as long as he heard the tone of the masters, he knew that such a character was simply out of reach, he had also heard that the eldest cousin had worshiped Mr. Dongfang, and he had envied him for a long time, but he never thought that he could also be Mr. Dongfang's apprentice.

Hearing Bai Mujin say this, Bai Muchen almost thought that he was hallucinating, and said in a daze: "Sister, don't tease me, how can there be such a good thing?" ”

Bai Mujin frowned slightly, not very satisfied with her younger brother's reaction, how could her younger brother be so unconfident, although Dongfang Xuan's reputation was indeed a bit unattainable, but as the future Ning Guogong, Bai Muchen's vision was indeed a little low.

But in the end, it was his younger brother, who was only eleven years old after the New Year, and he was still too late to teach well, so he said: "Why does my sister tease you?" Besides, this matter may not be as good as you think, first of all, Mr. Dongfang has a high threshold for accepting apprentices, and secondly, even if my sister has a way to let you in, she can't help you learn the real skills, everything depends on you! ”

Bai Muchen saw Bai Mujian's slight displeasure, and immediately said, "Sister, I'm sorry, I shouldn't doubt you!" ”

Bai Muhibiscus shook his head and said, "I don't blame you for doubting me, but I feel that as the eldest son and grandson of the Bai family, you shouldn't doubt yourself, even if it is difficult to be Mr. Dongfang's apprentice, you should have full confidence, otherwise it will be in vain if I help you again!" ”

Bai Muchen seemed to understand, lowered his head a little ashamedly, and only raised his head for a long time before pursing his lips and said, "Sister, I understand, I won't let you down!" ”

Bai Mujin was also very relieved to see that he could understand everything, showed a smile, and said: "Remember, we are no worse than anyone else, I have also seen your homework, although it is not the best, fortunately, you are diligent!" Although Mr. Dongfang accepts apprentices to see qualifications, but also depends on character, you are preparing for life these days, waiting for news from your sister! ”

Bai Muchen nodded happily, hugged Bai Mujian's arm and said coquettishly: "Sister, you are so good, hehe......"

Bai Mujin was amused by him like this, sneered, nodded his head, and said, "What an adult, you are still coquettish, and you are not afraid of people laughing at you!" ”

"Afraid of something, and there are no outsiders!" Bai Muchen wrinkled his nose and said with a smile, but he still let go of his hand and did not continue to pull Bai Hibiscus.

Bai Mujin explained some things in detail, and asked Bai Muchen to prepare to see Dongfang Xuan, so he let him leave, Bai Muchen just left, the magpie came in from outside, and when he saw that there were no outsiders, he whispered: "Xiao Lu went to Ning Xiangyuan, I saw that she looked a little weird when she came out, and she also held a cloth bag in her hand, but it didn't look like something that Mrs. rewarded!" ”

Bai Mujin frowned slightly, she knew that Xiao Lu was Lu's person early on, and the reason why she didn't get rid of her was because Xiao Lu acted in a low-key manner, although she always reported Bai Muchen's affairs to the Lu family, but in the end she didn't do anything out of the ordinary, thinking that the Lu family didn't plan to do anything to Bai Muchen for the time being.

But this time, it was a little strange to quietly call Xiao Lu, or to take advantage of Bai Muchen's absence, what the hell did the Lu family have in mind? But after thinking about it, maybe she was looking for Xiaolu to ask about Chen'er, maybe she was too worried about herself, after all, the Lu family was too busy taking care of herself now, so she shouldn't have a chance to find trouble with Chen'er.

"You continue to let people stare at Xiao Lu's actions, pay more attention to the eldest young master these days, and repay me for anything!" So said Bai Mujian.

The magpie nodded and said, "Miss, don't worry, the people we put next to the eldest young master will also be doubly careful!" ”

Since Bai Muchen listened to what Bai Mujin said, he became more and more interested, and he used twelve points of spirit to read and practice calligraphy every day, and even the masters in the school were full of praise, saying that the eldest young master of Ning Guogong had the style of his grandfather.

These words fell on Bai Gaoxuan's ears, but they became so unpleasant, and he hated Bai Muchen more and more, and found fault everywhere.

"Big brother, do you think that you are going to be Mr. Dongfang's apprentice, and you look down on us classmates?" Bai Gaoxuan deliberately raised his voice so that the other students could hear it.

Sure enough, these words attracted the attention of many people, and they all looked at Bai Muchen with a look of envy and jealousy, and one of them had always been good friends with Bai Gaoxuan, so he said: "Do you think anyone can become Mr. Dongfang's apprentice?" What a big deal, even the prince and grandson may not be able to let Mr. Dongfang accept apprentices, less idiots talk about dreams! ”

The one who spoke was the concubine of the Ministry of Rites Wailang, Hu Lincheng, speaking of which Hu Lincheng and Bai Gaoxuan were still relatives. The Hu family is the maiden family of Lu Zhaoan's wife, the Hu family, and Hu Lincheng is the nephew of the Hu family, so it is normal for him to be friendly with Bai Gaoxuan.

Bai Muchen's face was a little ugly when the two of them said, he never doubted his sister's words, his sister said that he would let him apprentice, and there would be no mistake, these people were just red-eyed.

didn't want to deal with them, but obviously Bai Gaoxuan was unwilling to give up, so he just blocked his way, and said with a smile: "Where is the eldest brother going?" You also tell us how to worship Mr. Dongfang, if Mr. Dongfang even accepts you, we may have a chance! ”

As soon as these words came out, those children who were still watching the play also echoed and said, "Yes, yes, how did you climb to Mr. Dongfang?" The masters all said that Mr. Dongfang has rarely taken in apprentices in recent years! ”

Although these children are all in their teens, they were born in the family of the official eunuchs, they are too precocious, and they have not learned other skills, but they have learned a lot of intrigues, and they have long known that the two brothers of the Bai family are not in harmony, so they are often willing to watch the jokes of the two of them.

Bai Muchen glared at Bai Gaoxuan, and then said tepidly: "Brother Xuan, this is our family matter, although my grandmother didn't explain it specifically, but before it was completed, you made everyone know, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" My grandfather just promised to recommend me, but there was no guarantee that I would be accepted, so don't take it seriously! ”

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Bai Muchen still knows this, so he usually keeps a low profile as much as possible in the school, so as not to make himself look too dazzling, and accidentally provoke jealousy, and he is weak, and his father doesn't like him, so he is the only one who can protect himself.

Now that it is revealed, it is also so that when I see Mr. Dongfang, I can get his old man's blue eyes and accept myself, I don't want to rely on my sister's help, I don't have real skills, and I will be gossiped about in the end.

Seeing him say this, Bai Gaoxuan had no intention of giving up at all, sneered, and said, "Why do you say this, eldest brother, with the relationship of your grandfather, how could Mr. Dongfang not accept you!" Isn't the eldest cousin a disciple of Mr. Dongfang? ”
