Could it be that, brother, you've discovered something?

Or perhaps, there's something wrong with the third brother?

Bai Yunxing did not answer immediately, nor did Bai Yunan speak.

After a moment, Bai Yunxing tentatively asked, "Why did you suddenly ask this, brother?"

"It's nothing, I just discovered something interesting."

Bai Yunqi stretched and yawned: "I can't take it anymore, I'm sleepy, I need to go to bed!"

After saying that, he lay down and turned over to go to sleep.

He doesn't care.

Anyway, that guy is the third son, so next time we must catch him red-handed!

Bai Yunxing turned to look at his third brother, hesitant to speak, his expression complex.

Bai Yun'an smiled at him with satisfaction and said silently, "Thank you, Second Brother."

Bai Yunxing sighed, lay down to sleep, but his mind was still wandering to other things.

He personally witnessed his third brother appear out of thin air in the house, and his ability was similar to that of his eldest brother.

Since the eldest brother just asked such a question, it means that the third brother must have been involved in tonight's events as well.

This means that the third brother is definitely not simple, and the mysterious person that his parents suspected before should be the third brother.

We all thought there were already enough secrets in the family, but now it seems that my third brother has a whole host of secrets to hide.

This family... apart from the third brother who has secrets, there shouldn't be anyone else, right?

...

Inside the Mu family's small garden.

Juanjuan is reading a storybook, and Mu Zhaoyao is reading one too.

However, the two looked at different versions; Juanjuan was looking at the children's version with pinyin annotations.

Jiang Dai and Bai Tian taught Juanjuan pinyin together, and it has to be said that learning pinyin with annotations is really convenient.

The only sound in the quiet pavilion was the faint rustling of paper turning.

"Have you heard? Last night, during the thunder and lightning, someone saw someone flying in the sky!"

"Really? Are you seeing things?!"

"Tsk! The guest room was struck by lightning last night, but the young master who took his medicine and went to sleep inside was unharmed! It's said..."

The two servants lowered their voices, and one of them stopped abruptly at the most crucial moment, hurriedly bowing respectfully: "Greetings, Seventh Miss."

"If I hear such superstitious and absurd talk again, my monthly allowance will be withheld for a month."

"yes."

Mu Zhaoyao took Juanjuan's hand: "Let's go."

Upon returning to the courtyard, Mu Zhaoyao immediately summoned her personal maid.

"Spread the word that no one was in the guest rooms last night. It was only because there was a jujube tree in the courtyard of the guest rooms that it was struck by lightning to ward off evil spirits. This lightning-struck tree is a good omen for this autumn hunt."

"yes!"

The maid immediately obeyed and left.

Mu Zhaoyao took a sip of tea, looked at the quiet child beside her, and asked, "Do you know why I did this?"

Juanjuan immediately sat up straight; it was time to test her.

The child coughed earnestly to clear his throat before speaking slowly and deliberately: "When it comes to people's opinions, it's better to guide them than to suppress them. If you order them not to speak, they will firmly believe that what they are saying is right."

"But at this point, if another version emerges, or if someone brings up something even more impressive, then the argument will fall apart on its own!"

She had heard this from her mother as well.

My mother said that to suppress trending topics, you need to use more explosive trending topics!

Trending topics are news or rumors.

Now, Yao Yao and her mother are using almost the same method.

Mu Zhaoyao's lips curled up slightly, indicating that she was very satisfied.

"Can I go see my cousin?"

Juanjuan is still a child at heart, and she's still very curious about how her cousin is doing.

She cured her cousin, but it was her very powerful older brother.

Mu Zhaoyao nodded: "Okay."

When they arrived at Bai Jiaxing's courtyard, the prefectural physician came out, puzzled.

Mu Zhaoyao politely inquired about Bai Jiaxing's condition.

The physician said, "This young master has not only suffered no injury, but the poison that was in his body yesterday is also gone, and his pulse is healthy."

This is really strange.

Mu Zhaoyao had not expected things to turn out this way.

In contrast, Juanjuan was much calmer.

Because this was entirely within her expectations. Although her older brother was sometimes unreliable, he was undeniably very capable.

Following Mu Zhaoyao into the house, Juanjuan exchanged glances with Bai Jiaxing and then politely greeted him, "Hello, cousin."

"good."

Bai Jiaxing nodded, which was considered a greeting.

He also knew about his uncle's family situation. Who would have thought that his uncle's family would achieve what they have today in just over half a year?

They also know that Juanjuan is currently being personally taught by the two young ladies of the Mu family.

This youngest sister of my uncle's family is truly intelligent; otherwise, how could she have caught the eye of the sixth and seventh young ladies?

I wonder what Juanjuan's three older brothers look like now.

Whether he's reformed and gone to school properly or not, he can't be inferior to the youngest girl!

Especially Dog Egg.

Because Gou Dan was the eldest child, Bai Jiaxing had more contact with him when he came back before.

Like Juanjuan, Bai Jiaxing had never seen anything like it before.

"Juanjuan, have your brothers all gone to school yet?"

Juanjuan nodded and then shook her head: "Second brother and third brother went to school, but eldest brother didn't."

Bai Jiaxing, whose guess came true: ...
