hanged. 。As I get older, my family has also given up. 。He is usually on the move outside, making many friends among craftsmen, and he's also familiar with buying things. 。"If everyone trusts him, I'll...Li Lao Er and Mr. Wen went downstairs and got into a carriage. Mr. Wen clapped his hands and laughed, "Master, what you just said was so good! It sounded so refreshing."

Li Laer smiled wryly, "I only said a few harsh words. Fu Niuer was slapped in the palace! I don't know how those people bullied her This girl has always been reluctant to cause trouble for the family. Today she is like this, she must be furious."

Mr. Wen frowned, "Mu Xu went to Jiangbei, otherwise I could ask him."

"Yeah, this kid left at the wrong time." Li La Er was also worried.

Mr. Wen advised, "Wait a little longer. The County Princess will certainly send a message home. Besides, it seems like the County Princess hasn't suffered any loss, so we don't need to worry too much."

"That's true," Lao Er Li eased his expression and smiled, "As long as our child isn't at a disadvantage!"

As they chatted, the carriage arrived at the Earl's residence.

Wan'er was already pacing anxiously at home. She rarely went out, spending most of her time indoors, so she had been unaware of the palace affairs until now.

But it happened that today her mother-in-law was drinking tea with friends, and as soon as she heard the news, she immediately sent someone to deliver it.

Waner wanted to go into the palace to see her sister-in-law, but she was worried that in such a tumultuous time, she might not handle things properly and cause trouble for her sister-in-law and her family.

She could only send someone to look for Jia Huan and have him inquire about the matter at the tavern.

Luckily, Li Lao'er and Mr. Wen came back at this time.

Wan'er had practically met her savior, rushing to the front yard hoping the elders could come up with a solution.

Li La Er was extremely satisfied with his daughter-in-law. With his son away, she handled all the household chores, social obligations, and childcare with care. It was especially hard work, but she always managed things perfectly and never made a mistake.

At this moment, he hurriedly recounted the whole story, emphasizing that Jia Yin hadn't suffered any losses.

Wan'er finally felt relieved and could let out a sigh of relief.

As it happened, the doorman came running to report.

“Master Bo, Mr. Wen, Madam Jia's eldest daughter-in-law, Miss Bao from the Jia family is here to visit.”

Treasure!

Many were delighted, Wan'er especially went to greet Baozhu as she came in.

You have to know, earlier on, Baozhu was Jia Yin's comrade-in-arms. No one knew the truth of the matter better than her.

The pearl did not disappoint their expectations. From beginning to end, she told them everything clearly and even danced with joy, wishing she could recreate the famous scene for them.

Finally, Bao Zhu left a letter with beautiful words and carrying the two boxes of snacks prepared by Wan'er, she happily went home.

Li Laoer and Mr. Wen took turns reading the letter. Mr. Wen was both amused and perplexed, saying:

"Our little Fu Niu'er even said that she didn't want to cause trouble for the family, otherwise she would beat them all up one by one!"

Li Lao'er nodded and sighed.

"The last thing I want is for this child to feel wronged, but given the current circumstances and with her living in the palace, how could she possibly live life on her own terms The fact that she's having a tantrum today, I actually think it's a good thing."

Mr. Wen advised, “Funiu is a clever child, you don't have to worry too much. In a few months, things will be settled, and by then, you won't have to worry about this child anymore."

Her family didn't have any demands about her marriage. They just wanted her to be happy.

"That's true," Li Lao'er laughed, "We would rather she not get married, or even be betrothed to join our family."

Wan'er also felt relieved, went to the kitchen, and started preparing the meal with the cook.

With this kind of thing happening, Jiahuan will definitely come back home for dinner tonight.

As expected, the sky had just begun to darken when Jia Huan hurried back, and even Liu Ziheng came along to join in the fun.

The Earl's mansion was unusually lively, making Yuanyuan reluctant to leave the front yard and snuggle in her mother's arms, refusing to go to sleep early...

Since Luo'an Academy is still some distance from the new capital, news inevitably travels a little slower here.

But many students found out about it at dinnertime.

Being young, they were playful and competitive by nature. In winter, they enjoyed snow viewing, in summer, flower viewing; they often held poetry gatherings or similar events just for fun.

Students were not interested in the news that the summer banquet at the palace had turned into a slap fight, but they were discussing two new poems enthusiastically.

Some people like it and praise it highly.

Some people don't like it, saying only that the language is not ornate enough.

But these are all outsiders, judging good and bad, it doesn't really matter.

Meowge, Guo Wenhao, Zhimin, and Xiujie gathered in the backyard courtyard, happily opening a bottle of liquor and raising their voices to celebrate the girl's divine power!

“Haha, as expected of my younger sister! In this world, those who dare to bully my younger sister will probably never be born!” Mao Ge’er proudly exclaimed, “It's a pity that I wasn't in the palace today, otherwise I would have definitely beaten drums and cheered for my younger sister.”

Zhimin and Xujie also clapped their hands in approval. Zhimin cried out, “Just thinking about it feels good! Those pretentious noblewomen are blind to see, they actually wanted to gang up on Funiu'er. Haha, I bet their guts are turning green with regret now!”

Guo Wenhao remained taciturn, but he held up his wine glass and took a sip. A smile never left the corner of his mouth...

"Xiu Jie was lively and animated, gesticulating as he said, 'There's a boy in our dormitory who actually said that Miss Jun was so fierce, she wouldn't be able to marry!'"

"Hmph, he's really just pretending to be concerned! Lots of people want to marry the younger sister, she doesn't have to worry about finding a husband at all."

"At worst, I'll marry the county magistrate's younger sister! Haha, I bet my father and grandfather will be so happy they drop dead!"

Zhimn slapped his younger brother on the head and shouted, "It's me who should marry her, not you! Besides, the County Princess is so intelligent, she probably wouldn't look down on us."

After saying this, he looked at Guo Wenhao with a bright gleam in his eyes and continued, "I think Haozi is very suitable. He doesn't have any elders or relatives. Once the county princess marries him, she will be the mistress of the house and definitely won't be wronged. Besides, Haozi studies better than all of us, so he will surely pass the imperial examinations and become a top scholar."

Guo Wenhao's face instantly flushed red, his ears burning.

He quickly waved his hands, stammering, "No, no, I'm not worthy of the county princess..."

Meow-ge also quickly stepped in, "Don't make fun of my sister, you guys! My sister has her own ideas, and what we say doesn't count. Besides, our family wouldn't want our sister to marry outside the family; we might even consider finding a son-in-law!"

Zhimín and Xiùjué shrugged their shoulders, the two of them chuckled and stopped talking about it.

Instead, Guo Wenhao lowered his head to sip tea, the light in his eyes slowly dimming.

He shouldered the responsibility of upholding his family's honor and reviving its glory; marrying into another family was simply out of the question.

Otherwise, the grandfather and parents, uncles, and aunts in the underworld would all come out to settle accounts with him…

In the courtyard of the Tang family's residence within the academy, Mr. Tang, in an unusual mood, had his young apprentice prepare two dishes for him. He poured himself a cup of wine and drank it by himself.

When he was half-drunk, he leaned against the back of his chair and muttered, "When such a fierce woman enters the Mu family, there will be time when those unfilial sons regret it."

He was unaware that the disobedient son, Mu Xu, had already disguised himself as a simple young man. He wore gray military uniform and held a long knife hilt in his hand, walking among the ranks escorting military supplies.

The scorching sun beat down relentlessly, baking the earth and the hundred-odd carts and thousand horsemen of the grain transport team.

A middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead and complained, "This weather is really too hot. When will it rain I want a nice, refreshing shower to cool off. Otherwise, we'll all be baked into jerky!"d replied with a smile, "No, they're only walking this road within the city to let the common people see them more often, as a warning. After leaving the city, there will be carriages, but not many. T...
