Chapter 802: Brother wants everyone in the world to envy you
Tang Bao was truly surprised.
"Brother, do you really want to take the imperial examination?" Tang Bao asked.
Xuanyuan Jin nodded.
"Not only will I take part in the Tongsheng exam, I will also have to take part in the Autumn and Spring exams in the future!" Xuanyuan Jin said in a firm tone.
Tang Bao: “…”
It’s over, the little brother was stimulated.
but--
This doesn't seem like a bad thing...
Tang Bao frowned and thought.
The little brother will eventually return to Beijing.
However, the little brother has been living in the countryside for many years, and he will inevitably be looked down upon by others after returning to Beijing.
If he could become famous in the scientific examination, he would have proven himself with his strength and slapped the faces of those who looked down on him...
"Brother, I support you!" Tang Bao waved his little fist and said, "If we want to take the imperial examination, we must get a good ranking! From now on, I won't sleep in and will study with you!"
Xuanyuan Jin's eyes flashed with a gentle light. He stretched out his hand and squeezed Tang Bao's little fist, saying, "Don't delay your sleep. You are still young. If you don't get enough sleep, you won't grow tall."
Tang Bao: “…”
Little brother, you are so arrogant that you even dare to bring up the issue of height.
"In that case, brother, you should also sleep in more." Tang Bao said sincerely: "I am still young and can grow slowly. Brother, you are not young anymore. If you don't grow taller, I'm afraid you will never grow taller."
Tang Bao naturally knows that boys develop late.
It is normal for Xuanyuan Jin to be like this now.
But she just didn't say it.
Not only do they not say anything, they also sprinkle some salt on it.
"Look at Erpan, he's about the same age as you, but he's a head taller than you." Tang Bao added, "Brother, if you don't grow up, you'll be called a shorty for the rest of your life."
Xuanyuan Jin: "..."
Little shorty?
Xuanyuan Jin was directly hit in the sore spot by Tang Bao.
"No matter how short I am, I will definitely be taller than you in the end!" Xuanyuan Jin said, gritted his teeth.
Tang Bao gave Xuanyuan Jin a disdainful look.
"Brother, are you ashamed to compete with a little girl like me?"
Xuanyuan Jin: "..."
Forget it, the little girl is becoming more and more eloquent.
Xuanyuan Jin compromised and turned to business.
"You know you're still young, so don't think about getting married!" Xuanyuan Jin said in a serious tone, "Wait a few years, when you're older, I'll personally choose a suitable family for you..."
When Xuanyuan Jin said this, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
The little girl is kind-hearted and silly.
If he wasn't by my side, I would definitely be bullied...
No matter how I think about it, I feel uneasy...
Xuanyuan Jin suppressed the awkwardness in his heart and continued, "When you get married, you will definitely be dressed in a lavish array and have a grand ceremony. I want everyone in the world to envy you for marrying a good man and a good in-law family..."
Is there such a man?
Who is worthy of the little girl?
Xuanyuan Jin frowned, feeling that no one was worthy of the little girl.
Tang Bao looked at Xuanyuan Jin speechlessly, letting Xuanyuan Jin talk to himself.
She was too lazy to ask, when did she ever think about getting married?
Could you please stop putting labels on people?
"And then there's the Bai family. Although they're the Empress Dowager's family, aside from the Empress Dowager, none of them are good people!" Xuanyuan Jin continued, feeling uneasy. "Everyone in the Bai family is incredibly cunning and treacherous. Even that Bai Shuan, while seemingly gentle and harmless, who knows what peculiar habits he has behind the scenes? Otherwise, why would he be interested in a little girl like you? Stay as far away from people like that as possible. If they dare to pester you, have them beaten to a pulp..."
"Master, we have arrived at the Bai Mansion." The guard whispered outside the carriage.
Xuanyuan Jin glared out through the car door.
Didn’t you hear him teaching the little girl?
What if I get cheated by Bai Shuan?
The more Xuanyuan Jin thought about it, the more worried he became, and he decided to follow Tang Bao at all times.
Tang Bao glanced at Xuanyuan Jin, opened the car door and wanted to get out.
Xuanyuan Jin went down first, and then carefully helped Tang Bao down.
He was used to doing this kind of thing and took it for granted.
As soon as Bai Shuqing opened the car door, she happened to see Xuanyuan Jin helping Tang Bao get out of the car.
She didn't know why, but she remembered that every time her second sister Bai Shuxiang returned to her parents' home, she would get off the carriage at the gate of the mansion, and her second brother-in-law would also help her like this...
Xuanyuan Jin originally lived in the Bai Mansion, so he didn't need to report before entering the mansion and could go directly to the Empress Dowager's courtyard.
At this time, people were kneeling on the ground at the gate of the Empress Dowager's courtyard.
The old lady of the Bai family was in the lead, followed by the first lady, the second lady, the second master and others.
Even some members of the Bai clan knelt behind with a look of trepidation on their faces.
The only one missing was the master.
Because the master was kneeling in the ancestral hall with gauze wrapped around his head.
When Tang Bao saw this scene, she was naturally surprised.
Xuanyuan Jin knew why and couldn't help but snorted coldly.
Tang Bao heard Xuanyuan Jin's nasal sound, looked at Xuanyuan Jin, and thought of what Xuanyuan Jin said in the carriage.
It seems that the Bai family did something bad...
Tang Bao guessed secretly.
Bai Shuqing couldn't help but scream when she saw her grandmother and parents kneeling on the ground.
"Mom! What's going on?"
As soon as Bai Shuqing spoke, everyone kneeling on the ground turned their heads to look over.
So, Tang Bao, who was wearing a red jacket and had a red ribbon tied in her hair, and looked as festive as someone who came to pay New Year's greetings and congratulations, suddenly caught the eyes of these people.
Today is the day when the exam results are announced, so Tang Bao naturally dressed festively.
However, her outfit was a bit eye-catching in the eyes of some people.
A young woman wearing an apricot-colored Shu brocade long jacket, a white jade hairpin with a butterfly-loving flower pattern on her head, and with extremely delicate eyebrows and eyes, frowned and looked displeased when she saw Tang Bao.
When the old lady of the Bai family saw Tang Bao, her eyes lit up.
The Empress Dowager wanted to dismiss the eldest master from his official position because of the false imperial decree, which was absolutely devastating to the Bai family.
Therefore, the master's official position must be preserved at all costs.
After all, the title of eldest master is the highest position among all the people in the Bai family.
The old lady looked at Tang Bao and said pleadingly, "Miss Su, your uncle made a mistake in a moment of confusion and made the Queen Mother unhappy. I beg you to go to the Queen Mother and say a few good words for your uncle so that she can calm down..."
Tang Bao: “…”
I didn't react for a moment. Who is my uncle?
She doesn't even have an uncle...
The eldest lady got up from the ground, staggered to Tang Bao's side, grabbed Tang Bao's hand, and said hurriedly: "Miss Su, auntie also begs you to say a few good words for your uncle and ask the Empress Dowager to forgive your uncle's guilt..."
Tang Bao blinked and understood.
This uncle actually refers to the eldest master of the Bai family.
