Rebirth of the Noble Concubine

Chapter 24 24. Provocation

"I am also my father's son, why don't I go to school? Is it because my mother is afraid that I will steal the limelight from my elder brother in the future, so that's why I behave like this!"

He is only a four-year-old child. If he were an ordinary person, he would still be playing in the fields. But in her family, he had already accused his aunt mother unfairly.

"How presumptuous! This is the child raised by my aunt? How dare you scold your aunt in such a loud voice? Do you still have any rules in your eyes?"

Feng Jinyao stood at the door with a cold face and began to teach him a lesson.

Feng Yunli's round flesh trembled in fright. After swallowing a few times, she wanted to step forward to argue.

But Feng Jinyao's eyes made her afraid to move, and then she softened and hid behind the aunt next to her, not daring to be presumptuous again.

"Sister-in-law."

"You're here!" Wen's eyes were filled with emotion, "I feel sorry for bothering you so late at night."

"What does one family say to two families? Is your headache getting better?"

Wen sighed, her eyes were red, and she looked like she was about to cry, which made Feng Jinyao feel aggrieved.

As a real wife, but being manipulated into this by the aunt below, you can imagine her frustration.

So he handed the handkerchief over, and Feng Jinyao spoke out to comfort him.

"I went to my grandma's house today. She missed you and the children very much, so she asked me to bring back a lot of things. She said that when you feel better, she will take Yunhe to see her."

As soon as these words came out, Wen was even more sad.

Ever since she married into the Feng family, she has always suffered from minor ailments and aches and pains, so her mother-in-law, Mrs. Feng, was still in charge of the affairs of the back house.

He doesn't have much real power in his hands, so naturally he doesn't respect the maids, women, and servants below him very much.

In addition, she has a soft temperament and is a well-behaved lady at home. When she gets married, she just wants to live a simple life of raising her husband and raising children.

But she never thought that after taking Linlang into the house, the couple would gradually become separated, and her children would also suffer a lot of grievances.

"Thank you grandma for your concern. I will definitely take my children to visit her home in the next two days."

"Um."

The aunt was kneeling down below, looking at the tender scene between the sister-in-law and sister-in-law, but she felt a lot of dissatisfaction in her heart.

Why can her son go to the best academy, but her own son can only invite a husband to teach at home, just because he is a legitimate son?

She just wanted to fight for it!

Then he started crying and shouting again, "Please forgive me, mistress, and let Yunli go to school with my eldest brother. I guarantee that he will study well and will never steal the spotlight from my eldest brother."

As soon as I finished speaking, tears started falling down.

"His destiny is not as good as that of his eldest brother. He was born in my belly and has been looked down upon since birth. If he doesn't study hard and go to school, he will be bullied in the future! Please have mercy on me, my mistress.

"

After saying that, he banged his head several times and the floor shook.

If an uninformed person saw it, they might think it was a vicious wife bullying an innocent aunt.

After hearing what she said, sister-in-law Wen's eyes became redder and redder. She wanted to open her mouth to argue a few words, but Feng Jinyao held her down and shook her head at her. A faint smile comforted Wen's nervous heart.

"You look down upon a bastard? What do you mean by that?"

Aunt Linlang asked when she saw her talking to her, and immediately took a few steps forward to continue crying.

"It's okay to not have as much food and clothing as my eldest brother on weekdays, but even when I'm sick, I always take medicine a little later. Last time Yunli sprained his foot, he just asked the doctor to come and take a look, and he even got injured from a fall.

They didn't even prescribe any ointment, and Yunli couldn't get out of bed for three or four days. Miss Third, you have to make the decision for me."

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Wen became even more furious. She opened her mouth wide and almost lost her breath.

"You're talking nonsense!" Feng Yunhe, who was standing next to him, shouted loudly with red eyes.

Feng Jinyao looked at Aunt Linlang coldly, seeing her panic for a moment, but she quickly calmed down.

Brother, there is really a good aunt in this courtyard. She can frame her up in front of her and turn black into white. I really underestimated her in the past.

"No, no, Miss Third. When it comes to food and clothing, my wife follows the rules of the house and has never made any deductions. She also allocated some from her share to the second brother.

"Children's expenses, look at the second brother who is stronger than the eldest brother, how could he be a harsh child?"

Zhu Jin, the maid next to Wen Shi, immediately retorted, fearing that Feng Jinyao would blame Aunt Linlang's lies on their wives, which would be impossible even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

"What about that time Yunli sprained her foot?"

"It was the doctor who said that there was nothing wrong at all. Prescribing medicine would easily damage the child's growing bones, so I didn't use medicine. But my aunt just didn't listen and she complained to the uncle several times about this!"

Maid Zhu Jin simply revealed the matter so that no one could get any benefit from it.

Feng Jinyao listened to what was said on both sides, thought for a moment and then suddenly turned around and asked.

"Did you know that Yunqi Academy has three rules?"

"What are the hospital rules?"

Aunt Linlang pretended to be confused. She had already planned to send her son to school. How could she not know the rules of the school?

It's okay for her to deceive others like this, but if she wants to deceive Feng Jinyao, it's not enough.

"First, you can't enter unless you are a direct descendant. Second, you can't enter without passing the exam. Third, you can't leave without fame. Of these three, tell me which one can Yunli pass?"

Feng Jinyao's words were like bells and drums in the early morning, beating on everyone's hearts.

Zhu Jin, the eldest maid who was following Wen, was originally very angry, but when she heard Feng Jinyao's words, she felt very happy.

The look in Aunt Linlang's eyes was a bit more sarcastic.

It’s really overestimating one’s abilities!

"As long as the mistress nods and records my son in her name, isn't that the status of a direct descendant?"

Aunt Linlang already had a countermeasure and blurted it out.

Feng Jinyao nodded after hearing this, "This is indeed not difficult to do, but what about the second one?"

Seeing that her tone was not as strong as before, Aunt Linlang seemed to see hope and stopped kneeling. She pulled Yunli to stand up, and then said pitifully, pretending to be pitiful.

"Miss Third also knows that I don't know much Chinese characters. In the past, my mistress only took care of her eldest brother. Even if the child Yunli wants to learn, there is no one to teach her..."

"Why are you so slanderous?" Zhu Jin, who was beside Wen, was unconvinced and immediately retorted.

"Isn't it true? My eldest brother knows so many words when he is only six years old, and my mistress does not teach her carefully on weekdays? My son is only four years old now. If he can go to the academy to study, he will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future. He is also a descendant of the Feng family.

, if he is appreciated by noble people, wouldn’t it also bring honor to the Feng family?”

The more she talked, the happier she became. She even forgot how she cried at the beginning. Feng Jinyao looked at it and sneered.
