Xiao Chengyi felt a little moved after hearing these words. He looked at the old lady and said, "Don't worry, grandma. I'm thinking about it. Don't worry about us when you are older. In short, your grandson will never embarrass the Mu family."
The old lady's eyebrows moved slightly as she seemed to have something in his words, but she didn't ask any more questions and just nodded and said, "That's good."
After a pause, he continued: "That kid Ze Fang has a heavy burden on him. Failure to pass the exam will definitely hit him hard. You should try to persuade him."
"yes."
Xiao Chengyi agreed and immediately asked someone to send the old lady back to rest.
Mu Yun'an had known for a long time that there was something strange about this year's examination, so he was not too surprised when he heard the news that Xiao Chengyi failed.
After all, her brother Yi was not a person who would let her be wronged.
Compared with the depressed Mu family's big house, the second house is much more lively.
Mu Xingze won the first place in the general examination, and Mu Zongping also had a bright face.
Although his son was not yet the number one scholar, he was almost there. After he came back, he made arrangements to celebrate his son.
Mu Xingze's biological mother, Mrs. Li, was still alive, so naturally it was not Liu Lanxin's second mother's turn to have anything to do with her.
She symbolically expressed her congratulations and then went back to rest, while Li went to the ancestral hall to offer incense and comfort his ancestors.
There were only two brothers and sisters, Mu Xingze and Mu Yunhuan, left in the room.
Seeing that everyone had left, Mu Yunhuan asked excitedly:
"Brother, why did cousin Xiao Chengyi and Ze Fang fail the exam? Did you do anything?"
Mu Xingze's expression changed when he heard this. He lowered his voice and looked at his sister angrily and said, "If you don't want to kill our second wife, you'd better keep this matter in your stomach."
Mu Yunhuan already had an inference in her mind when she heard what he said, and she said with tears in her eyes:
"Brother, don't make the same mistake again and again. I can understand your despicable means to win the first place in the examination, but why do you want to ruin other people's futures?"
Today, when she heard that Xiao Chengyi and Wang Zefang failed the examination, she felt that something was wrong. Since the prince could reveal the questions, he must also be able to control the review of the examination.
Mu Xingze said with a cold face: "If you want to blame them, blame them for not knowing how to praise them. His Highness the Crown Prince deliberately wanted to win over them but he was arrogant and arrogant. He deserves to end up like this."
He snorted coldly and said to Mu Yunhuan:
"I'm warning you, keep your mouth shut. When I get to the top spot in high school, I will help you become the crown princess. As for that man named Wang, you are not allowed to have any contact with him anymore. Do you hear me?"
Mu Yunhuan felt sad in her heart. Although she was extremely disappointed with her eldest brother and this family, she still couldn't let go. After all, they were her relatives.
All she could do was keep the secret in her stomach.
Watching innocent people being persecuted and ruining a good future.
Mu Yunhuan didn't want to face her elder brother again, so she turned around and ran out quickly. The entanglement, guilt, and helplessness in her heart mixed together and made her heart a mess.
She found a deserted place to calm down her mind. After a long time, she gathered her mood and prepared to go back. From a distance, she saw Wang Zefang walking towards her in despair.
He looked like this hurt Mu Yunhuan's heart for no reason. She took a deep breath and walked towards him and called: "Cousin Zefang."
Wang Zefang didn't seem to hear it. He looked at the list with his own eyes and found that his name was indeed not on it. He had studied hard for ten years and finally let them down.
He felt sorry for the ancestors of the Wang family and his father who had high hopes for him. He had no shame to go back!
"cousin."
Mu Yunhuan held Wang Zefang's arm and called him again.
Wang Zefang came back to his senses and looked at the girl in front of him, and said in a faint voice:
"It's you, are you here to comfort me? No, I don't need anyone to comfort me. If I lose, I lose. I'm useless. I'm just a waste and don't deserve the sympathy of others."
