Chapter 588: The Path She Chose Herself
"Wanrou, are you confused? Do you still think they will be kind to you? She's dividing us! Don't fall for them! β
Bai Wanrou was silent for a moment and said, "Mother, I won't fall for anyone, and I won't be separated from you." It's just that don't look for me if there is something like this in the future! You don't care about my reputation, I can't care about myself. β
Wu Mi: "Why don't I care about you?" Didn't you have no place in the Mu family in the first place? What's the point of going on like this? I've figured out the way back for you...... That's it! It's all in the past, and there's no point in talking about it. β
Bai Wanrou nodded.
"Wanrou, do you know why the emperor married you to Mu Boqian?" Wu Mi asked.
Bai Wanrou: "Didn't you tell us before?" Because he doesn't want Mu Boqian to inherit the Mu family, first, Mu Boqian is the prince's person, and second, if he inherits the Mu family, the Mu family will be more prosperous and cohesive, which is not what the emperor wants to see. β
Wu Mi nodded: "So do you know what you should do?" β
Bai Wanrou: "Being a demon as Mu Boqian's wife, he can't be the son of the world." β
Wu Mi: "Hmm! Wanrou, you are familiar with these things, and I believe you can do it well. β
Bai Wanrou was silent for a moment and said, "Mother, I'll go back first." β
She turned and walked away.
Wu Mi looked at her back, gritting her teeth with hatred for Bai Xianyan in her heart.
and secretly hated Bai Wanrou for ignoring the overall situation and being short-sighted......
β¦β¦
Because Lou Chuyan was pregnant, the third aunt came to the capital to help, took over a lot of things in Lou Chuyan's hands, and supported Bai's business.
came with her, as well as her two children: Bai Zhan and Bai Jiao.
Bai Zhan is a good seedling of reading, but he is not yet old enough to enter the academy or be an official protΓ©gΓ©, so he can only ask his husband to come to his home to teach him, or send him to a private school.
There are many children in private schools, and it is difficult to teach them all according to their aptitude, so Bai Hexing looked for good gentlemen for him everywhere, but finally found that most of the erudite and talented gentlemen who can teach children were invited by the Mu family to study in their clan, and some went to the Xie family and other families.
After thinking about it, he moved his mind and wanted to send Ah Zhan to the Mu clan to study.
M Moser has a deep heritage and has its own set of ways and methods of educating children, which is difficult for other families to compare.
However, his relationship with Mu Yu is actually average, and it is not very easy to speak.
So he invited Huan Chuan and his wife, and invited Mu Boqian and Bai Wanrou to come, and after three rounds of drinking, he mentioned the matter to Mu Boqian, and asked Bai Zhan to come and visit.
Mu Boqian asked Bai Zhan a few questions, and he was generous and answered very well.
"We Mu clan rarely accept children with foreign surnames." Mu Boqian said: "The main reason is that there are too many in-laws, and there are some favorites, if you let go, the teacher of ethnicity will not be able to teach it." However, it is not without exceptions, and some particularly gifted children will also be included in the family studies. β
Bai Hexing: "Then look at Ah Zhan......"
Mu Boqian said: "This child is young, not arrogant or humble, has a good conversation, and is very talented, I will recommend it to the family, but he also has to pass the assessment of the gentlemen." β
Bai Zhan bowed deeply: "Thank you, brother-in-law!" β
Mu Boqian was probably not used to the title of "brother-in-law", so he was a little surprised and stunned, and said, "Prepare well!" Gentlemen will not be polite to you. β
After eating, Bai Xianyan and the third aunt went to the garden to talk a lot of private words, and when she was about to go to Lou Chuyan, she saw Bai Wanrou talking with her.
Seeing the two of them passing, Bai Wanrou said goodbye and left, still holding a notebook in her hand.
Bai Xianyan asked: "Mother, what are you talking about?" β
Lou Chuyan said: "She took the initiative to ask me about business. I gave her a list of books for her to read. There are also some ideas about the Mu family, which were also written to her. β
"What? Have you reconciled with them? The third aunt asked strangely.
Lou Chuyan said: "Reconciliation is impossible. It's just for Mu Gongzi's sake, give them some help. And then there's ...... She blames the poor too. β
Third aunt: "Why is she pitiful?" β
Lou Chuyan shook her head and only said vaguely: "A girl with a foreign surname will definitely suffer a lot of contempt and grievances in the palace." Ay! Don't mention her, Xiyue has set a date, and it will pass in a few days, third brother and sister, you can also prepare some dowry for her! β
The third aunt shook her head: "This girl...... I'm really obsessed! β
Lou Chuyan said: "She chose her own path, I hope she won't regret it in the future." β
β¦β¦
Mu Boqian took Bai Zhan to the Mu clan and passed the assessment of clan studies, so he took him to meet Mrs. Xie and Prime Minister Mu Cheng.
As a result, when he went, he found that the second eldest princess, Mu Qingfeng and his wife, Huan Li, were all there.
Bai Wanrou is also there.
They were discussing whether to use the noble concubine ceremony or the ordinary concubine room to admit Bai Xiyue to enter the door.
Mu Bo glanced at Huan Li quietly, her expression was calm and submissive, and there was no displeasure.
In the past few years, Ah Ying has not grown in other skills, but his ability to coax girls has grown a lot.
Mu Boqian smiled slightly, and went in to salute.
Old Madam Xie asked kindly, "Why are you here?" Ouch! Who is this kid? Good life Zhou Zheng! β
Bai Zhan has cultivated both civil and military since he was a child, and he has the vigor of a military general's family, and his appearance is very smart and handsome, which makes people like it very much at a glance.
Mu Boqian said: "This is the child of the Bai family's third room, called Bai Zhan. β
Bai Zhanli saluted one by one several times.
"Bai Hou said that this child is a seedling of reading, and he wants him to come to our clan school to study." Mu Boqian said, "I just took him over to find a few gentlemen, and they were full of praise for him. So I took him to my grandmother and father and asked for your opinions. β
"It's not appropriate, is it?" Mu Qingfeng said, "Our Mu clan has never accepted children with foreign surnames, this is a rule, and the eldest brother has forgotten it?" β
Mu Boqian said: "Of course I haven't forgotten. But there are exceptions! Didn't my grandfather also accept a foreign surname when he was there? There's one, not even a relative! β
Mu Yu said: "You mean Chen Wei, right? β
Mu Boqian nodded: "Exactly!" β
"He has never forgotten since he was a child, and he is indeed a capable person." Mu Qingfeng said, "But in the end, don't you say goodbye?" Big brother, this opening has been opened, and I don't know how many people are going to find it. β
Mu Bo looked at Mu Yu.
Mu Yu hesitated.
"Father, daughter-in-law has a word, I don't know if to say it or not?" Bai Wanrou said suddenly.
Mu Yu couldn't hide her disgust for Bai Wanrou, but still gave her the right to speak: "You say." β
Bai Wanrou said: "Many children in our Mu clan school, when the weather changes slightly, they are easy to get sick, not to mention delaying their studies, it is not good for their health in the long run. And the boys of the Bai family have been cultivating both civil and military since childhood. You see Bai Zhan, who is twelve years old this year, but has the height of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, has a strong body, rarely gets sick, and has a more flexible brain. β
