"You, how are you!" Mao Chengyun stood up suddenly, pointing at Chen and speechless.

Mao Mingxuan also frowned slightly, but he still opened his mouth to persuade: "E-niang doesn't have to blame herself, as a prince, food, clothing, and housing are arranged by the Internal Affairs Bureau, even if you don't bring clothes, it doesn't matter." As for silver, there is also a case of silver. You don't have to worry. ”

"Why are you so confident that Tongtong will not be able to choose?" Mao Chengyun said angrily: "Our daughter is not bad-looking, and her temperament is good, and you sent her to the capital to learn the rules, you never thought she would be chosen?"

Chen looked at Mao Cheng in surprise, and stammered: "Old, master, have you thought about it?"

"Why haven't you thought about it?" Mao said: "Who can guarantee that Tongtong will not fall into the eyes of any nobleman?"

"Amma, what's the point of talking about this at this time?" Mao Mingxuan became the most calm person in the house, "My sister has entered the palace, and you can't change the facts even if you blame Eniang." Besides, this is also unacceptable. She doesn't know how to be sad these days. ”

"Xuan'er!" Chen looked at him and said, "Do you also think Tongtong will be chosen?"

"Eniang, I just don't rule out this possibility." Mao Mingxuan said euphemistically.

Chen only found out at this time that she and Mao Tongtong were sure that she and Mao Tongtong would be able to go home if they were not selected.

"I shouldn't have promised you to send Tongtong to the capital to learn the rules!" Mao Cheng regretted it at this time. That way, the daughter can stay at home for an extra year.

"Amma, don't say it. E-Niang is already sad. Mao Mingxuan frowned.

Mao Chengyun is now angry, self-blaming and sad, and despite the fact that Chen is still wiping tears, he actually brushes his sleeves and goes out.

Chen suddenly cried even harder. She and Mao Chengyun have been married for almost 20 years, and it is the first time that Mao Chengyun has been so angry at her.

Mao Mingxuan accompanied and comforted: "E-niang, don't cry." I don't blame you for this. Amma was also sad in her heart, and her words were heavier. ”

"Your Amma is not wrong, you just blame me for this." Chen sobbed, "It's me who thinks things are simple. It's too late to regret it now. ”

Mao Mingxuan couldn't help but have a headache, one drilled the tip of the horns, and the other was stubborn, he is not easy to do as a mediator!

He patiently comforted Chen for a while, and finally coaxed Chen not to cry, and Mao Mingxuan was relieved.

"E-Niang washes her face first, and I'll go and call Ama to eat." Mao Mingxuan glanced at the maid who was waiting on the side, and then went to find Mao again.

This will be kung fu, Mao Chengyun has already gone to the martial arts training ground in the front yard to shoot arrows to vent.

When Mao Mingxuan arrived, Mao Chengyun was shooting an arrow into the bull's-eye.

"Amma's good archery!" Mao Mingxuan applauded.

"Your mother is still crying?" Mao carried the arrow.

Mao Mingxuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Yes, you made such a big fire that frightened Eniang." The son is useless, and it is not good to coax. ”

Mao Chengyun showed a look of regret on his face, and said a little uncomfortably: "Aren't you the best at coaxing your mother to be happy, why can't you coax it today?"

"Amma, since you're worried about E-Niang, why don't you go by yourself. Didn't you notice that E-Niang had lost a lot of weight? I'm so worried that she'll get sick again on the way like the last time she came back. Mao Mingxuan said.

As soon as the words fell, Mao Chengyun disappeared all of a sudden. Mao Mingxuan couldn't help laughing. Obviously worried about Eniang, but she still held on.

When he returned to the main courtyard, he saw Mao Chengyun holding Chen's hand and saying comforting words.

In order to catch Mao Tongtong and Chen's wind tonight, Mao Chengyun specially instructed the kitchen to cook a lot of good dishes. When the dinner dishes were on the table, the three of them couldn't help but feel sad again when they looked at these dishes that Mao Tongtong loved to eat.

"Amma, Eniang, I want to try it this autumn." Mao Mingxuan said suddenly.

"This year?" Mao Chengyun looked at Mao Mingxuan in some surprise and said, "Didn't you say that you are not completely sure this year and want to play next year?"

Mao Mingxuan's temperament has always been calm, and he never does things that he is not sure of. Some time ago, the gentleman of the academy persuaded him to try it this year, but he refused, saying that he still had some areas where he was not solid enough. After all, he is still young, he is only seventeen this year, and it doesn't matter if he participates in the imperial examination a year or two later.

It's surprising that he has suddenly changed his mind.

"My son wanted to play next year, because he wanted to be more sure of being the first next year. Now, for the sake of his sister, his son wants to leave the court early and become an official as soon as possible! Mao Mingxuan's eyes were firm.

My sister's status is low, and she is just a character in the backyard of the eighth master. If you want your sister to rely on in the future, he has to work hard as an older brother! If he does a big job in the future, even if the eighth master doesn't love his sister, he won't treat her too badly.

It was precisely because of this idea that Mao Mingxuan temporarily changed his mind.

Mao Cheng nodded and said, "This is also a method." Tongtong is alone in the palace. If we want her to be able to rely on her, we have to climb up! Climb to an official position that can be noticed by the eighth master, and Tongtong's life will be better! At that time, maybe we'll have a chance to meet! ”

Mao Tongtong, who was far away in the capital, would definitely be moved to cry if he knew the intentions of Mao Chengyun and Mao Mingxuan.

It's just that she doesn't have time to think about her family now, because the little eunuch in the front yard just now came to report that the eighth master was coming to dinner in the evening.

In a blink of an eye, she has been in the brother's house for more than a month. Since that time in the pavilion, she and the eighth master have never met.

Of course, Wang Shi also failed to meet the eighth master.

Because on the second day, the eighth master was sent by the emperor to the Xishan camp, and he didn't know what errand he was busy with. I didn't hear about it until yesterday.

In the month that the eighth master was away, she was quite comfortable. I can sleep until I wake up naturally every day, and I don't have to learn the rules or go to class, just do what I like. The only bad thing is that there is no freedom.

Although no one stipulated that she could only stay in the Elder Brother's office. But she is a Gege who has just entered the palace, and the master is not at home, so she can't go everywhere! Besides, she doesn't know anyone!

Oh no, know a Chen Ruyu! But the family is in Yuqing Palace, which is the prince's territory, and she can't go there at will.

Therefore, she can only stay in her own yard. The farthest place I walked was the small garden that I went to visit that day.

I thought that after the eighth master came back, he was going to go into the backyard, and it should be Wang's na. But I don't want to, this master is still willing to come to her, and the sun is coming out in the west.

The key is, coincidentally, when the little eunuch came to pass the word, the Wang family was in her group again!

Looking at Wang's barely squeezed smile, Mao Tongtong was about to cry! Although she didn't plan to really have a deep sisterhood with the Wang family, the eighth master couldn't pull hatred for her so desperately!
