Houfu Key Class

The little devil was looking for books in the study room until his eyes were almost blurry, and he kept muttering: "Oddities... Oddities, why can't I find it? Could it be that Xu Wan remembered it wrong and it's actually on the second floor?"

Shunzi was helping, and his eyes were blurry. His stomach was growling, and he finally couldn't help shouting: "Young Master, there are too many books in the study room. How about we look for them after dinner?"

When the little devil was not paying attention, he wanted to slack off in everything, but when he got serious, he was so focused that he didn't want to do anything else. It's okay to be hungry, and he won't starve to death.

He waved his hand and said: "Don't make a fuss, I won't eat if I can't find it."

Shunzi's eyes were full of tears, and he wanted to say that if you are not hungry, I am hungry, and if you don't eat, I want to eat...

But he swallowed his words wisely, for fear that the little devil would be angry and turn against him, and he would be the one who would be unlucky.

There were footsteps outside, and Zong Wenxiu ran in and shouted, "Jincheng, Auntie asked me to call you over for dinner."

"Are you annoying? I won't eat if you tell me," the little devil yelled angrily, but when he turned around and saw that it was his brother, he immediately restrained his anger and quickly admitted his mistake: "Sorry, brother, I didn't mean you."

Shunzi: "..."

I understand, I understand, they are all talking about me.

After all, it was a mistake, I am no longer your favorite Shun.

Zong Wenxiu was stunned for a moment, and smiled: "It's okay, I'm not angry with you, come here, let's go eat, everyone is waiting for you."

He didn't dare to convey Xu Wan's original words, otherwise his brother would be very angry if he knew that he had been deceived to find the book for so long, and his relationship with Xu Wan would be even worse.

Zong Wenxiu felt that his aunt and brother were very good people.

He should try harder to ease the relationship between the two.

"Everyone?" The little devil remembered, "Grandpa and grandma are here too, oh yes, they are all back, what book am I looking for here?"

The little devil suddenly realized that he had been fooled by Xu Wan, and left the rows of books neatly and went to eat with his brother.

On the way, Zong Wenxiu said to him: "Grandpa and grandma just went to Mr. Baili's house, they won't be back so soon, and they probably won't be able to make it in time for lunch."

"Ah? Then why are we going to the hall to eat?" The little devil frowned, he didn't want to see Xu Wan at this time.

What if she said a few more things in the strange records that he had never seen or heard of, wouldn't she show off again?

That won't work, if anyone wants to show off, he should show off to her!

Zong Wenxiu said: "My mother is here too, it's her first time to come to the front hall to eat with us."

Little Wenxiu was very happy, he felt that both he and his mother were recognized, and his mother might live a better life in the future than before, thinking this way, all the original fanciful things became a thing of the past.

Mother said that people should look forward, as long as the road ahead is bright and smooth, there is no need to cling to the muddy past.

"Huh? If you want to go, we will sit with your mother later, not with Xu Wan." The little devil began to form cliques.

Zong Wenxiu said with a smile: "That's fine."

Anyway, the table is so big, you can see it wherever you sit.

The food in the front hall has been served.

Xu Wan talked a lot with Hong Yi Niang. Seeing the two of them coming, she was quite surprised that the little devil didn't get angry. Logically, this kid should be very angry when he knows that he has been deceived.

Anyway, she never cares about whether she has a good relationship with the little devil. If the relationship is too good, it will be difficult to discipline the child, so she doesn't mind how much hatred the little devil has against her.

Zong Jincheng came over and deliberately snorted at her, and then sat down next to Hong Yi Niang, just not sitting with her.

Xu Wan: "..."

You are so tactless, sitting in Wenxiu's seat.

What can Hong Yi Niang talk to you about?

Fortunately, she was on the other side of Aunt Hong, so she didn't have to sit there with this little devil.

"Let's eat." Xu Wan said.

The maids opened the food, and hot soups came up one after another. The two children were hungry after a whole morning, and they didn't care about their appearance when eating. Wenxiu was okay, learning the rules very seriously, but the little devil didn't learn the rules well, and he threw them all out of his mind when practicing.

Xu Wan was worried again that this kid really needed an etiquette teacher. She turned around and saw Aunt Hong eating slowly. Whether it was holding chopsticks or eating posture, it was a template.

She raised her eyebrows suddenly and had an idea.

But now was not the time to talk about this matter. She silently took note and would mention it after the matter was resolved.

The meal was quite peaceful. With Zong Wenxiu and Aunt Hong here, the little devil just made a face at her and hummed a few times, and there was no big quarrel.

Just after dinner, before anyone left the front hall, the old marquis and the old lady came back.

Both of them were smiling, seeing that it was good news.

Xu Wan asked: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, is it done?"

The old lady smiled happily: "It's done, it's done, Mr. Baili is willing, he said he would bring Mrs. Baili to recognize her tomorrow, and asked us to come back and prepare."

Xu Wan breathed a sigh of relief, finally relieved.

Zong Wenxiu was surprised and happy, and smiled excitedly at Hong Yi Niang.

Hong Yi Niang was only happy for a moment, and then asked worriedly: "Mr. Baili, he, he doesn't mind my background?"

She was not talking about her background in the slums, but her identity as the daughter of Prime Minister Yan. If this matter was known to others one day, I am afraid that even Mr. Baili's family would be implicated.

Ten years have passed since that incident, and many of Prime Minister Yan's enemies have resigned and left Beijing, but the kind-hearted Aunt Hong still doesn't want to cause trouble to others because of herself, even if there is only a small possibility.

The old lady stepped forward and held her arm, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, we have nothing to hide from Mr. Baili. He is sincerely willing to accept you as his adopted daughter."

The old Marquis also added: "Right and wrong in this world cannot be generalized. Some people remember his merits, and some remember his faults. Mr. Baili understands justice well. He believes that your father's merits far outweigh his faults. He is an amazing person. A big man that I admire. He said that even if the future becomes public, he doesn’t care.”

Xu Wan listened and silently gave a thumbs up in her heart.

Mr. Baili is indeed Mr. Baili.

This pattern is really admirable.

The old lady continued: "I will ask someone to tailor the clothes for you. I have wronged you all these years, and we will definitely treat you well in the future."

"There is no grievance. My father-in-law and mother-in-law have always treated me very well." Aunt Hong shook her head and tears fell. She knelt down and said seriously: "I have thanked my father-in-law and mother-in-law for their great kindness."
