In Aunt Wen's opinion, the Hanlin Academy was naturally not as good as the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The Ministry of Revenue is the emperor's money bag. Who can ignore the people who manage money?

Taking herself as an example, she was more prosperous and respected when she was in charge of a house. Now that the power of the family has been taken away, even the blind servants can come and talk to her.

Aunt Wen's words should have been effective to Shi Chengxuan earlier. But now, I just ate the cake painted by my good daughter, and I can't eat anything else.

He looked very cold, "I don't think there is anything wrong with the Hanlin Academy." He paused and raised his head, "Do you have a relationship with Mr. Yuan's wife? Are you sure you don't have a relationship with his concubine?"

He didn't like to use these words to stab her in the past, but this time he messed up the promotion and Aunt Wen was the culprit, so there was nothing to say about pity.

Aunt Wen blushed when she heard this, but she couldn't refute it.

Although Mr. Yuan's real wife is not as noble as the Tang family, she also comes from a scholarly family, so she will not have a good relationship with her as a concubine.

On the contrary, Mr. Yuan's concubine, Mrs. Liang, was very close to her because of her hometown.

The two made appointments to meet from time to time. In short, Aunt Wen often comes up with bad ideas to bring disaster to the Yuan family.

She originally thought that by holding Liang's handle in her hand, she could blow the pillow.

As long as the master's affairs are done, all the troubles he has caused can be wiped out, and the power of running the family can be regained, then there will be no question of clearing up the accounts.

But now the master looked indifferent and didn't want to listen to her at all.

Shi Anxia also ignored Aunt Wen, treating her as nothing, "Father, your new official has taken office, and mother said she would entertain your colleagues at a banquet."

Chengxuan liked hearing this and was visibly happy, "Seriously?"

Shi Anxia nodded, "But mother said that you are in a low-level position and it is not appropriate to hold a big event. Just invite the few scribes in charge of you to your home for a small gathering."

Shi Chengxuan looked confused, "Oh, didn't you invite those above?"

"Of course not. The Hanlin Academy is different from other places. Father, please don't make random invitations, otherwise you may offend people and make people unhappy." When Shi Anxia saw Shi Chengxuan, his enthusiasm suddenly disappeared and he became gentle again. He said, "Mother will choose some appropriate gifts to send to them based on their preferences, so you don't have to worry."

"Don't worry!" Shi Chengxuan was not ungrateful and said smoothly, "Madam, she has a good heart, so of course I don't worry."

Seeing this scene of a loving father and a filial daughter, Aunt Wen recalled what Shi Chengxuan had said about Tang Chujun before, "She doesn't like me, and I don't like her! If my mother hadn't forced me to marry her, how could I have done it?" Are you going to marry such a stupid person?"

Now, Tang Chujun doesn't have to show his face, and he has become a "caring person" who worries about everything for him.

Aunt Wen secretly hated it.

Shi Anxia looked at it coldly, but her voice was a little warmer and softer, "Actually, the banquet that mother hosted for your colleagues was not all for you, father. Mother also wanted Brother Yunqi to meet them and raise some experience."

Madam Shi suddenly understood, she patted the armrest of the chair and said excitedly, "Mr. Chu, you are so thoughtful!"

Only then did Shi Chengxuan realize that those people were all on the Jinshi list, and some were even ranked very high.

If his son could get guidance from these people, wouldn’t it be more effective with half the effort!

I couldn't help but admire my wife's foresight and vision, "Madam, she has a vision!"

Mrs. Shi re-examined the Tang family's mother and daughter. Seeing that her granddaughter was wholeheartedly advising her father, it didn't look like she was cheating, nor did she look like she was in cahoots with her eldest brother.

This made me feel a little more relaxed, and I felt that the power of running the family should be given to the mother and daughter with Down syndrome.

After everyone dispersed, Mrs. Shi sent someone to call Mother Yan from Haitang Court to ask questions.

Yan's mother reported, "Looking at the old slave, my wife has indeed softened her heart, and she is always concerned about the young master's injury. However, the old slave has taken a close look at the young master, and he is so injured! You didn't see that there are some bones It’s all exposed. Even Dr. Shen said that this is not the way to kill someone.”

"This Wen Huiyi!" Mrs. Shi's heart twitched when she heard this, "Mother Li, go call her over!"

Aunt Wen who was outside the door was eavesdropping. She was startled when she heard this. She quickly gestured to Mother Chen who was guarding the door and ran away.

Mother Chen was forced to kneel in the snow for five hours that day, and her legs almost became useless.

If the eldest lady hadn't come to the old lady later to plead for her and let her go to Mingsong Hall to kneel for the full time, I'm afraid her life would have been lost.

For now, she would stay outside the door without saying a word, not wanting to say anything. Let them do whatever they want.

She could see that Aunt Wen and Mrs. Shi were nothing, and they showed no mercy to such an important and powerful servant like her. If I want to make her work hard again in the future, well, that won't happen.

When Aunt Li went to invite Aunt Wen, Yan's mother continued to report, with some joy in her tone, "There is good news, the old lady will be happy to hear it."

But what Mrs. Shi wanted to do was to let Brother Qi get better soon, so as not to miss the opportunity to make friends with those scribes.

It was so easy for Tang to plan for him, so he had to seize the opportunity.

Now, Mrs. Tang must be caring more because her brother saved her daughter. If it passes this period of heat, I'm afraid it will fade away.

Yan's mother came closer and whispered, "I heard that the poems and essays praised by Young Master Xing earlier were actually written by Young Master Qi."

"What?" Mrs. Shi suddenly became energetic, "Is this true?"

Yan's mother had a bright smile on her face, "Everyone in Haitang Courtyard has said this, and I can't tell the truth from it. But I think it was probably because the young master was afraid that he would not be able to become his legitimate son, so he took the initiative to tell the madam and the eldest lady. . Think about it, if the young master is more capable and the wife has someone to rely on, why would she have to take such a young Master Shu under her knees? What if she raises another slut? Well, this old slave is too talkative."

Realizing that she had said the wrong thing, she slapped herself lightly.

Mrs. Shi slapped the table and smiled happily, "That's right!"

She later remembered why she had so much faith in Brother Xing's ability to succeed. It was entirely because he had shown amazing talent at the age of eight. Even the master of Songshan Academy was full of praise and said that he would soon become famous in the capital.

As a result, before he could become famous in the capital, he learned that he was rejected by all the academies.

At this moment, I finally realized that the one with amazing talent and beauty turned out to be Brother Qi!

She became even more eager to think of her brother as his legitimate son.

Unexpectedly, Nanny Li came to report in a hurry, "Old madam, it's not good, Aunt Wen ran to Haitang Court to snatch the young master!"

Mrs. Shi's eyelids twitched heavily, and a burst of anger rushed towards Tianling Gai, "Let's go to Haitang Courtyard!"

Whoever sabotages her plan to reset her destiny is her enemy!

This Wen Huiyi should have been dealt with long ago!

When she arrived at Haitang Courtyard, she heard Aunt Wen wailing at the top of her lungs, "Son! My son! I am the only son like you! You can't just want to be your legitimate son and don't want my mother! Although I She's just a lowly aunt, but she's also your biological mother, so you can't just say you don't want her..."
