Chapter 898: He likes the little girl looking at him like this
If Yu Zhilan knew Xuanyuan Jin’s current mood, she would definitely laugh out loud!
And, let me say this - karma will come true!
After hearing what Tang Bao said, Aunt Pang's big round face immediately smiled like a sunflower.
"Auntie Fatty misses you too. She misses you so much."
"Yeah, I miss Auntie Pang too, the most..."
Xuanyuan Jin: "..."
Go back and reduce Aunt Pang’s monthly allowance!
Aunt Fat didn't know that she was recorded in the young master's notebook.
In the carriage, Tang Bao held a small bowl and drank the fragrant Eight Treasures Soup in small sips, with an expression of happiness and intoxication on her little face.
"Is it so delicious?" Xuanyuan Jin said with a smile.
"Yeah." Tang Bao nodded repeatedly and began to complain: "Brother, you don't know, although we didn't sleep in the open air during this journey, the food in the inn is really terrible. It's completely different from Auntie Pang's cooking..."
When Tang Bao said this, her little face wrinkled into a little bun.
"Especially, my mother asks me to drink a bowl of thick ginger soup every day. Oh my, you have no idea what it tastes like..."
Tang Bao wrinkled her nose, looked like she couldn't stand it, and shook her head repeatedly.
After hearing what Tang Bao said and seeing Tang Bao's expression, Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but reach out and touch Tang Bao's head.
"It's all my fault, brother. I should have let Aunt Pang attend the wedding banquet and then rushed back to Daliushu Village."
Xuanyuan Jin felt both distressed and guilty.
It turned out that the little girl was thin because of hunger.
No! I have to make up for the little girl's weight!
Tang Bao didn't notice that the little brother in front of her had started to make a pig-raising plan in his mind.
"Brother, it's a good thing you didn't let Aunt Pang rush back. It's so cold, you shouldn't bother Aunt Pang." Tang Bao said with a smile.
After that, he asked curiously, "Brother, how did you know I was here?"
"I met Master Yu." Xuanyuan Jin replied.
Tang Bao: “…”
Sure enough, Master Fox guessed something.
"Brother, you should have guessed it, right?" Tang Bao asked.
The little brother's IQ is not lower than that of Master Fox.
"The Su family, a century-old family in the capital, is your family." Xuanyuan Jin used an affirmative sentence.
"More than that?" Tang Bao said with emotion: "Brother, you will never imagine that my father is the legitimate son of the Su family's direct branch. In other words, the old man of the Su family is actually my great-grandfather."
Originally, I should have been the legitimate daughter of a prominent family.
Although, I don’t mind!
Xuanyuan Jin was stunned. He really didn't expect this.
He originally thought that they were just of the same clan.
Moreover, there may have been conflicts with the direct branch of the Su family.
"Brother, you said that my father is the eldest son of a century-old family, and my mother is the eldest daughter of the Duke of England. It seems that my status is quite high." Tang Bao said seriously.
Xuanyuan Jin tapped Tang Bao's little nose, and a playful gleam flashed in his eyes.
"More than that? Don't forget, you are the goddaughter of the current great general and the younger sister of the Third Prince. You can call the Empress Dowager "Grandma" and the current Emperor "Uncle..."
Tang Bao: "...Brother, please stop talking. I will float."
“Hehehe…”
Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but laugh softly.
Tang Bao immediately covered her little heart.
The little brother looks so handsome when he smiles, she can’t resist him.
When Xuanyuan Jin saw Tang Bao's infatuated look, the smile in his eyes became even more intense.
If anyone dared to look at him like that, he would dig out that person's eyes.
But he liked the little girl's look.
"Why did your father come to Daliushu Village?" Xuanyuan Jin asked.
Tang Bao shook her head and said, "I don't know the details yet. My father doesn't want to talk about it. He only said that the old man of the Su family drove my grandmother and my father out of the Su family after my grandfather passed away."
Xuanyuan Jin's brows furrowed tightly.
"Kicked out of the Su family?"
"Yeah." Tang Bao nodded and said angrily: "Besides, the ancestral hall was opened, in addition to the clan!"
After saying that, he blinked his big eyes and said, "Brother, I just want to ask, will my father's expulsion from the clan affect my fifth brother's imperial examination?"
You know, there are many rules and regulations for taking part in scientific examinations.
For example, children from merchant families were not allowed to take the imperial examinations.
For example, candidates who want to take part in the Spring Examination must be recommended by someone with a certain honor.
After hearing what Tang Bao said, Xuanyuan Jin shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's just a branch out to live another life."
"What if the Su family is deliberately causing trouble?" Tang Bao asked again: "For example, using filial piety as an excuse..."
After all, in this era, putting on a mourning hat can crush someone to death.
Xuanyuan Jin touched Tang Bao's head, and there was a hint of condescension in his voice.
"If the Su family, a small family, really dares to cause trouble for your family, then their name as a century-old family should be completely erased from the list of aristocratic families!"
After hearing what Xuanyuan Jin said, Tang Bao nodded in agreement.
"I think so too. Anyone who dares to cause trouble for our family will not have a good ending." Tang Bao confessed: "In fact, I asked this not because I am worried that they will cause trouble, but because I am worried that they will not cause trouble."
Xuanyuan Jin: "..."
It turned out that the little girl wanted to cause trouble.
Tang Bao really wanted to stir up trouble.
After all, my father must have suffered a lot of injustice in the Su family!
If she can't get some justice for her father, she will no longer be his little cotton-padded jacket!
"The Su family has declined over the years. Whether it's their influence in the court or their prestige among the officials, they are no longer what they used to be." Xuanyuan Jin said thoughtfully, "Even if they keep to their own ways, they have no successors and won't be able to hold on for much longer."
Xuanyuan Jin paused at this point and continued, "In your family, your fifth brother was a top scholar, Chengyao passed the imperial examination at a young age, and there are also promising students among the younger ones... It seems that the fortune of this century-old family has fallen on your branch."
Moreover, he is an orthodox direct descendant!
The old man of the Su family is really blind, mistaking fish eyes for pearls.
The current head of the Su family simply does not have the ability to support the Su family.
Tang Bao felt that what Xuanyuan Jin said made a lot of sense.
At the same time, she also really wanted to see the old man of the Su family looking extremely regretful!
"Brother, can you get someone to investigate what happened back then?" Tang Bao thought for a moment and said, "Why was my father expelled from the clan? My grandfather was the legitimate son and the eldest son, so why didn't he take him seriously? Was it because of my grandmother, or was there someone behind this?"
"Okay, leave these things to me." Xuanyuan Jin nodded.
Naturally, he would not refuse Tang Bao's request.
However, he didn't expect that this investigation almost found Su Xiaoliu.
