Chapter 164 Do You Think My Sister Will Recognize Us?
"Hehe." Bai Yu'an chuckled.
Xiao Wu immediately looked over, his eyes clearly showing some helplessness, and the black jade fan in his hand was tightly grasped.
In the eyes of Qingyun and other Feiyun Sect disciples, he is the omnipotent sect leader, but in the General's Mansion, he is only the third brother who is only seventeen years old. The person opposite him who sneers at him is his favorite second brother.
"Can't go on?" Bai Yu'an still had a disdainful sneer on his face. "Xiao Wu, don't take yourself too seriously. You're just like Li Suining, a dispensable outsider. Why would you influence me?"
"Second brother!" Xiao Wu shouted anxiously.
"Don't call me second brother!" Bai Yu'an said coldly, "Go away, you are not welcome here."
After saying that, he turned around and left the pharmacy, continuing to go about his business, completely ignoring Xiao Wu's intentions.
Xiao Wu stayed for a while before slowly moving his wheelchair and leaving quietly.
In Qinxin Garden, everyone was teasing Xiaoba and Xiaojiu. Now the two little kids can crawl and babble, but they can't speak yet.
It was obvious that the two little guys were particularly fond of their only seventh sister. When they crawled over together quickly, they accidentally bumped into each other's heads, and the crying and screaming immediately broke out.
When Li Suining saw Xiao Wu coming back, he immediately stood up and ran over, calling out sweetly, "Third Brother!"
"Be good!" Xiao Wu gently pinched the little dumpling's chubby face. Even though Bai Yu'an refused to admit it, he always believed that his departure back then was one of the main reasons for Bai Yu'an's current situation.
In other words, it was because of him that Xiaotuanzi was not accepted by Bai Yu'an, and he felt vaguely sorry.
"Was Third Brother kicked out by Second Brother?" Little Dumpling snuggled up to Xiao Wu's legs and asked with a smile.
Xiao Wu smiled and nodded.
"Don't be discouraged, third brother. Sui Ning believes that one day, second brother will accept us." Li Sui Ning said confidently.
"Okay, Third Brother believes in you. Who told you to..." Xiao Wu gently scratched the little guy's nose, "You are the lucky star of our General's Mansion?"
"Hehe!" The little dumpling grinned embarrassedly.
She is willing to be this little lucky star, not only a little lucky star who brings good luck to the general's mansion, but also a little lucky star who enjoys the love of everyone in the general's mansion.

On the other hand, after Zuo Shanzhang returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he locked himself in the study.
He didn't know what went wrong, but he couldn't accept the current outcome. Although the Emperor of Jin had not yet dismissed him from his position as prime minister, everyone could see that it would be three months before everything would be settled.
Did he lose to that idiot Bai Yunfeng? Or did he lose to that old, nagging Jiang Heci? Or...did he lose to that bitch Jiang Yinyue?
"Damn it!" Zuo Shanzhang smashed everything in the study to pieces.
At nightfall, he called in his most trusted subordinate and sent out a letter, "Send it as quickly as possible."
"Yes, Prime Minister." The man quickly disappeared into the night.
The next day, Zuo Shanzhang released Zuo Sixian and Zuo Jiali who were imprisoned in the dungeon.
After all, the two were sons of the Prime Minister's Mansion and had been spoiled since childhood, especially Zuo Jiali, who had spent a day and a night in the dungeon and was half dead.
"Prosperity!" Zuo Shanzhang waved his hand, "Go back and wash up first, eat something, and then come see me."
The two were sent away in a daze.
When he finally had a hot meal, Zuo Jiali gradually came to his senses, "Brother, how could Dad be so cruel?"
"Eat." Zuo Sixian didn't seem to want to say a word more.
Zuo Jiali's tears gradually welled up. "Brother, why are our lives so miserable? Mother... Mother is about to die, and Dad... Dad still treats us like this. In the future..."
Zuo Sixian threw his chopsticks down instantly, "Why are you crying? Are you a three-year-old child?"
Zuo Jiali was so scared that he dared not say a word and tried hard to hold his mouth, but tears still fell uncontrollably.
Zuo Sixian knew his younger brother very well. He had no great ambitions, nor any bad intentions. As the son of a prime minister, he could have lived a leisurely life, but now...
"Wipe your tears." Zuo Sixian took a handkerchief and handed it over. "Mom... Mom is gone, but in the future, you still have brother. What are you afraid of?"
Zuo Jiali cried inconsolably. When they were in the dungeon, they heard that Lou was sentenced to death, but at that time he could not protect himself and his tears had dried up long ago. At this moment, the pain of losing his mother really appeared in his heart.
The more he wiped his tears, the more he cried and he couldn't control himself at all.
"Don't worry, Dad won't really do anything to us. After all, he's already sold us out in front of the Emperor." Zuo Sixian sneered, "Forbidding us from taking the imperial examinations for three years... He's truly cruel."
"Brother, what should we do?" Zuo Jiali became more and more anxious.
Zuo Sixian looked at his brother and smiled, a rare smile. "Don't be afraid. Just continue to study at the Imperial College with peace of mind. In three years, you must win the first prize. Do you understand?"
Zuo Jiali nodded and stammered, "I...I'll try my best, but brother...I can't guarantee it."
"Yeah." At this time, Zuo Sixian stopped scolding him or forcing him, but just nodded slowly.
"Brother, then...what about you?" Zuo Jiali wiped away his tears and looked at Zuo Sixian helplessly. The Lou family was gone, and Zuo Shanzhang treated them like dogs. His only relative now was Zuo Sixian.
No, there is another one. He suddenly remembered the dumpling, "Brother, I heard...Sister Sui Ning was conferred the title of County Lord."
Zuo Sixian glanced at him with a look of dismay, "What sister? After all that has happened, do you think she will recognize us?"
He stood up and walked to the window. "Dad asked me to come over. He must have something to arrange. You don't have to go over there in a while."
Zuo Jiali's eyes turned red again, but he could do nothing now and didn't know what he could do.
Sure enough, not long after the two finished their meal, Zuo Shanzhang sent someone to call them again.
Zuo Sixian went alone and said, "I met my father. Jiali was too tired and fell asleep, so I didn't wake him up."
Zuo Shanzhang looked at him meaningfully for a long time before speaking softly, "Do you hold a grudge against Dad?"
"How is that possible?" Zuo Sixian showed a look of deep fear. "We are given our bodies and hair by our parents. Children have only innate love for their parents. How can they hate them?"
"Sixian, you have always been a smart child, but sometimes you are too impatient. I hope this incident will help you truly grow up." Zuo Shanzhang said meaningfully.
Zuo Sixian nodded heavily, "My son will remember his father's teachings."
"The emperor ordered me to be confined to the prime minister's residence for three months. You should understand that three months is enough to destroy all my foundations in the imperial city." Zuo Shanzhang said in a deep voice.
Zuo Sixian raised his head slightly and looked over. "What does a father need his son to do?"
Zuo Shanzhang took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "I'm going to be away for a while. What you have to do is keep this secret and protect the Prime Minister's Mansion. Everything will be done until I come back."
