Chapter 29 Reluctance

But Han Hui claimed to be a clear water, and this time he wanted to ask for benefits from his younger generation, but he couldn't see his face. At that moment, Qian came forward to test Wang's words. Qian secretly called the eldest, second and third daughters to help him, which led to Han Lei asking for a quota with Han Xiu today.

Han Xiu was angry when she heard this, but she was gentle. Although Han Lei was about the same age as her, she was always an elder and it was not easy to have an attack on the spot. She had to blush and responded.

"This is not something my niece can decide, so naturally I have to ask my parents!"

Bah! What a lady from the Feng family, I don’t know where to come to fight Qiufeng’s relatives, and why did the person who was completely unrelated to us find us?

Han Lei responded,

"You naturally can't make the decision on this matter. Don't think that our family is suppressing you to take the robbery. Only you, the cousin of the Feng family, is a promising person. If you make efforts, you will benefit you in the future. This is because our two families are relatives and have always been close to you. I told you the truth. If others are afraid they are posted on me, I will not pay attention to it!"

Han Xiu felt depressed when she heard this kind tone, but she didn't know how to reject it for a moment, so she had to bow her head and remain silent.

It was a cold place when he said this. The pavilion became silent for a moment. Everyone stayed for a while and heard that Han Yun led Han Man and ran back.

"Big sister, the flowers in this garden are blooming well, why don't you go and have a look!"

Seeing this, Han Xiu took the opportunity to get up and wiped the sweat of the two girls with a veil.

"In such a hot weather, I'm taking Lao Wu Hu to run. If I get heat, I will suffer from it!"

He turned around and took herbal tea for the two of them to drink. Then he saw Han Qi shaking her fan and walking slowly from behind. When Han Xiu saw Han Qi coming, he hurriedly took her hand and smiled.

"We have been playing in this backyard for a long time. Why not go to the front to see our mother?"

She knew that Aunt Lei was spoiled by her family, and she was a self-righteous father, and was an elder. She was afraid that she would force Han Qi to give up the quota of the academy in front of her. She hurriedly pulled Han Qi to the front yard, and Han Yun and Han Man chased her out,

"Big sister, wait for us!"

Han Qi saw something strange,

"Big sister, my aunts are still in the pavilion. It's a bit rude to walk away like this!"

Han Xiu bit her lip and said to her,

"I will talk to you in detail when I leave the mansion!"

The four sisters hurried out of the backyard, and happened to be a woman beside Wang coming to look for someone. When she saw them, she smiled.

"The ladies are here, but I've saved my old slave's legs and feet!"

Then he said,

"It's said that noon has arrived, so the ladies are going to have a meal in front!"

Han Xiu was absent-minded in this meal at noon, and Wang was also full of suspicion. Han Shifeng and Han Hui returned with joy. After he got on the carriage back home, Han Xiu pulled Wang's sleeve and said,

"Mother, do you know what Aunt Lei said in front of you?"

Wang raised his eyebrows,

"What did you say?"

Han Xiu said angrily,

"Aunt Lei asked the third sister to give up the quota from the academy and give her a distant cousin!"

When Wang heard this, his face sank, and then suddenly realized.

"No wonder!"

No wonder Qian and his two daughters kept beating each other, and their words implied, frequently mentioning the fact that Sister Qi entered the academy. It turned out that she had such an idea. Wang's face was as gloomy as water when he heard it. Han Yun cursed angrily.

"How could they be so shameless? A distant relative wants to enter Chengsheng Academy. If you have the ability to take the exam, how could you come and grab our family's quota!"

Han Qi frowned when she heard this, and thought about it and asked Wang.

"Mother, if she is really a distant relative who is a thousand miles apart, her cousin may not have spoken this!"

The inner house is connected to the outer courtyard. Aunt Lei dares to test, so she must be instructed by her uncle. She is an old official who has been an official for many years, so she will naturally not be aimless. There is no point in it. There is no doubt that this matter must be reported to her father!

Wang and her thoughts of a response immediately,

"I'll talk about this matter in detail after I get home!"

When she returned home, Wang first sent a few daughters who were reluctant to go back to the backyard, and then served Han Shifeng to drink sober tea. After wiping her face, she sat aside and frowned and told her what her eldest daughter reported. Han Shifeng was originally lying on the bed comfortably, but when he heard this, he suddenly sat upright.

"Who said...who said this?"

Wang responded,

"It was Han Lei and Xiu'er who said it!"

Han Shifeng sat there, silent, his face calm and gloomy, and after a while,

"Let me ask for some information first!"

Three days later, Han Shifeng returned home and closed the door with the Wang couple, and then sneered at Wang.

"Hmph! I asked someone to find out about that matter, what kind of cousin is from a distant family..."

Now tell the Wang family that the strange things are all about. Although Han Shifeng is a small official of the sixth rank, he has been an official in this capital for more than ten years. Naturally, there are some connections in each department in private. As long as you inquire with your heart, you can naturally figure out the matters!

Wang was born in an official family since she was a child, and this kind of thing happened to her. She didn't expect Han Hui to hit them and sneered,

"He is a business that is cost-effective, but when he talks, he wants to use our place to please his boss!"

Han Shifeng showed a bitter smile on his face.

"Although Han Hui is my uncle in the clan, he is not close to us on weekdays and has no contact in Tongzhou when he was young. However, my friend in the inspector said in private that this person looks open-minded and generous on the outside but is actually a vengeful villain in the inner world. If he annoyed him, he would not even care about his righteousness!"

Wang didn't believe it when he heard this.

"As the saying goes, "The same thing is true. There are only a few people in the Han clan who are in the capital. They should be united in the outside world. How could he dare to attack his own family? He is not afraid that the clan will know and damage his reputation?"

Han Shifeng shook his head and said,

"Our Tongzhou Han family is a big family. It is said to be a surname. In fact, I am a hundred and eight thousand miles away from him. However, it is because I am in the capital and he is also in the fourth rank of official position. As you said before, we are all Han clans, so we naturally have to go more. However... Huihui, you know that in this officialdom, even fathers and sons, there are times when they turn against each other in the officialdom!"

Wang's face became solemn when he heard this.

"As the master said, this place can only be given up? Our third sister is so well-educated, so she quit the academy? I...I'm not willing to give up!"

Han Shifeng sighed, paced back and forth in the room with his hands on his back, thinking,

"Of course I refuse to leave the academy with my third sister. I will go to find Brother Sun tomorrow and ask him to think of a way!"

Han Hui spoke, and he had no intention of taking it back. If he didn't want to offend him, he would definitely think of a way!

He walked around with his hands behind his back and said hatefully,

"At worst, I can grit my teeth and pay another 500 taels of silver to buy a place, and give it to Han Hui!"

Han Shifeng has been in the officialdom of the capital for more than ten years, so he naturally understands that no one who is an official does not want to climb up. He said that he asked the juniors of the clan for the quota of the academy, and even his wife and children will be given away!

Han Hui is an elder in the clan and is a few levels older than him. Now he is concerned about his face and only lets the woman in the back house speak, which gives him room to maneuver. If he summoned him into the mansion that day, he would not be able to offend him in person, no matter how unwilling Han Shifeng would not offend him in person!

Han Shifeng immediately ordered Wang Shidao,

"You will get five hundred taels of silver tomorrow, and I will do it!"

Wang felt very distressed when he heard this.

"There is not much money in the family. Seeing that the eldest brother got married, the younger sisters were not young anymore. Don't forget that there is another Shiro!"

Han Shifeng was also unhappy and responded,

"I don't know what you said. I can't do anything in front of you, and it will be difficult in the future!"

Han Shifeng also knows what Han Hui is. He is also a censor. If he holds a grudge against him because of this matter, he will not tell him in person and instruct his subordinates to study his own book, he will be afraid that he will not be able to take advantage of his small sixth-grade mung bean official!

If you can't afford to offend others, you can only follow it. If you want to do this, you must do it quickly and neatly. If Han Hui asks, the final thing will be done and you will have to complain about perfunctory and procrastination!

Han Shifeng has been an official for many years and naturally knows the truth of seeking profit and avoiding harm!

He was just doing things. After the couple discussed that night, Han Shifeng arrived at the yamen in the morning and sued for half a day off in the afternoon. He went to the academy to look for Sun Hao. Sun Hao shook his head and smiled bitterly when he learned about his purpose.

"Brother Han, do you think my place is a vegetable market? How many pounds do you want to buy at a price? "

Han Shifeng also looked bitter,

"You and I are friends for many years, and I dare not hide it from you. This is also the one that my uncle in clan said..."

Now that he talked about Han Hui, he didn't dare to talk about the true identity of Miss Feng's family, but only said that she was a distant relative of her nephew. Sun Hao frowned so hard that he was so nervous.

"These censors are all like mad dogs. It would be fine if they don't mess with each other. If they get involved with each other, they will lose their skin!"

He lowered his head and thought,

"I will try my best to think of a solution for this matter. If the mountain leader doesn't nod, brother Wei can only help you get here!"

Han Shifeng bowed his hand as a polite.

"Brother Sun Gao Yi, Han is so grateful!"

Sun Hao waved his hand,

"You and I don't have to be polite in this relationship. In fact, I am willing to do my best not just for you. It is also because your third lady is really smart, studious, hardworking, and has a bit of your shadow back then. I don't want her to drop out of school because of this!"

Han Shifeng felt like he was scratched to the itch when he heard this, and laughed,

"Brother Sun praised it, my little girl is stupid and can't be praised like this! Our mistress is just a little better than others!"

Sun Hao had been with him for many years, and when he saw his open and secretly criticizing him, he looked proud and rolled his eyes.

"Go and go! Stop being proud of yourself here, go back and listen to your letter!"

Han Shifeng then turned around with a smile.
