Chapter Eight Double Test

Speaking of this, Han Jiangxue stopped a little, and saw his elder brother's expression gradually becoming solemn, and said, "Over the years, you, my brother and sister have been branded as vulgar and naughty by the people in the capital, and they are not a spoiled, causing trouble, and are useless! But are we really as unbearable as we have been told?"

"There are so many children from aristocratic families like us in the capital. Why are you and my brothers so unbearable? Haven't the elder brother ever thought about the abnormalities here? Every time Liu talks good things for us in front of our father, the more his father remembers every wrong thing we have done, and becomes more dissatisfied with us. Even if sometimes it is obviously just a very ordinary little thing, it makes my father even more disappointed with us."

Seeing that the eldest brother didn't say a word, his expression became more and more serious, Han Jiangxue continued: "Actually, looking back, over the years, Liu has been obedient to us in everything, and he can't be better, but are those good things really for us? If this is her style of dealing with things, why would she never openly indulge her children? If my mother was alive, would she discipline us like this?"

The continuous rebellious questions made Han Jing unable to speak, but no matter how he could not believe that Liu would be the kind of vicious person with bad intentions that his sister guessed.

After a while, he said, "Maybe... Maybe everything is really just a coincidence, or there have been too many things in the past two days, which makes my sister's suspicion a little too severe. We can't be directly convicted just because of some suspicion. After all, she has been..."

"Forget it, today I said this to my elder brother, but I didn't mean that I must find out the Liu family and daughter now. I just wanted to tell my elder brother that I should not have the intention to harm others, but I must be careful of others!"

Knowing that he could not convince the elder brother so simply, Han Jiangxue had to remind again: "As long as they really have problems, if they really have problems, as long as they pay attention, there will be evidence to prove my guess today. As for elder brother, whether you believe it or not now, you will not be wrong if you are more careful."

Seeing this, Han Jing naturally no longer resisted his sister's reminder. He nodded slightly and said that he had already recorded it. Although he still didn't understand his sister's thoughts, what his sister said made sense. Everything is good. It will always be wrong to be careful in the future.

The two brothers and sisters were stunned for a moment, and Ziyue knocked on the door and asked them to come over for dinner.

Mr. Tan has excellent skills. Every time this pair of precious grandchildren comes, they will cook the dishes they like. The three grandchildren eat and chat while eating. When they are in high spirits, they will inevitably drink a few more cups. For a while, the originally cold and gentle Tan family is also happy, and the joy of family is extremely warm and charming.

Before dark in the evening, the brother and sister returned to the Han family. Han Jing habitually wanted to go back to the house, but Han Jiangxue was dragged to the place where his father lived.

"Brother, remember. You must first get your father's consent when you go out. When you come back, you must first go to your father's room to reply." Han Jiangxue said as she signaled Aoki and Ziyue to go with her. For no reason, she naturally had to know her father.

When Han Jing heard this, he was not used to it and bargained: "Don't be so troublesome. As my sister said this, will we lose all freedom in the future?"

"Brother promised me that I would work hard and make positive changes. If I can't even do these things, everything else would be empty talk." Han Jiangxue refused firmly, "Besides, these are trivial matters, but they represent respect for my father. We were ignorant in the past and always ignored these things, but we didn't know that filial piety was big or small? Even after my father's level, how could my brother reverse the bad impression of you outsiders?"

These words were reasonable, and Han Jing was unable to argue by his sister. When he remembered his previous promise, he couldn't help but blush and nodded quickly and promised: "My sister reminds me very well. In the future, I will listen to my sister. I will do whatever she says, and I will do it, and I will never say anything!"

The brother and sister looked at each other and smiled, then stopped talking and went to see their father together.

Seeing the brother and sister come back together, Han Feng came to see him. Although Han Feng didn't say anything, his expression was a little excited. Over the years, these two children have not shown such sensibility and rules for many years. Thinking about what his daughter said yesterday, he is even more optimistic about the reform of the brother and sister.

Han Jiangxue briefly introduced Aoki and Ziyue to her father. Of course, she made some changes in the words, but she said that her grandfather had heard about yesterday. One was worried about her safety, and the other was afraid that the elder brother would cause trouble again, so she gave the brother and sister to them.

Han Feng didn't know his father-in-law's personality to protect his shortcomings. However, seeing that Qingmu and Ziyue were very calm and composed, they didn't say much, just pretending to make the old man feel more comfortable.

"Jing'er, you're going to take the martial arts test this year. I was just going to be angry last time. I didn't let you take the martial arts test, can you still take the literary test? In any case, you can't just not participate." Seeing that his son was willing to accept the discipline, Han Feng's attitude became even more relaxed, and even changed his mind a few days ago.

Every June 6th, the palace will hold a unique civil and military examination. Young children from the powerful and noble families in the capital, aged 16 to 20 can participate. This has become a tradition in the Eastern Ming Dynasty and is also one of the ways to select young talents from noble families for the royal family.

Therefore, anyone who has reached the qualification to participate will generally not fail to participate, and at least one of them will be selected according to their strengths. Some people also participate in both civil and military tests. Whether it is famous or training, it has become the best platform for the nobles in the capital to show and compete.

Han Jing had participated in the martial arts exam twice. Although he was not old at that time, he was both within 20 years. This year he practiced martial arts fiercely. With his current strength, he had great hope of entering the top three or even winning the championship. However, he had committed a few days ago and made his father angry. He was ordered by his father not to participate in the martial arts exam again, which made him very angry.

Now that I heard that my father had actually withdrawn the ban, I was so excited that I was about to speak out and thanked my father, but I didn't want my sister to snatch him away first.

"It's great that Dad agreed to let my elder brother continue to participate in this year's martial arts exam." Han Jiangxue smiled and said to Han Feng in surprise: "If that happens, my elder brother will participate in both civil and military exams this year!"

As soon as these words were said, not only Han Feng, but even Han Jing was shocked. He was about to deny the explanation, but was interrupted by his sister again.

"Dad doesn't know yet. My elder brother said at my grandfather's house today that he would have to review his homework and participate in this year's literary exam from now on. My elder brother said that our Han family is not a family of military generals after all, and poetry, books and literature should not be abandoned. Xueer thought that what my elder brother said was very true. No matter what kind of achievements he achieved in the end, the elder brother's ability to have this heart shows his progress now."

Han Jiangxue said calmly, and made a wink at the same time, indicating that she would do what she said.

Han Jing was so anxious that he just took the ink in his stomach to take the literary test. Is it obvious that he was the last one? But his sister's look unrefutable, which reminded him quickly of what he promised just now.

"Jing'er, do you really think so?" Han Feng was very happy and couldn't help but get up and walk to his son and patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, okay! You are already very content to be a father with such a mind. Just as your sister said, it doesn't matter what you accomplish in the exam. What is important is that you have truly improved, become sensible, and know how to cultivate yourself and your character!"

Seeing his father's expression of joy, Han Jing couldn't bear to refute it. He gritted his teeth secretly and had no choice but to cooperate with his sister to take on this matter first. He could only hope that his sister would suddenly make such a decision for him, but he should have some plans.

After saying a few more words, the brother and sister left the study room.

After a while, Han Jing couldn't wait to pull his sister to ask what he meant just now. He asked him to take the literary test together without discussing it for no reason. Isn't this a joke?
