Chapter 338

The Bupleurum matter was settled, and Mrs. Lin finally showed a smile.

However, his expression was still cold, and he said to Zhao Jin'er and his wife, "I have been doing business for so many years, and I have never seen any big storms. The Feng family dug such a small puddle for me."

Zhao Jin'er knew nothing about business and didn't know what to say.

Qin Muxiu said, "Madam, you said that the Feng family hooked up with Gao Zhi'er and broke the contract with Lin Ji?"

Mrs. Lin was furious, "Huh! Just because I gave birth to a good son!"

Zhao Jin'er and Qin Muxiu are both confused. What does this have to do with their son?

It turns out that the eldest son of the Feng family, Feng Hongxue, passed the provincial examination three years ago and won a tribute scholar in the provincial examination. He is a top scholar.

There was great hope for him to be admitted to the imperial examination. Unfortunately, the old man of the Feng family died of a stroke that year. In order to maintain his filial piety, Feng Hongxue had to give up going to the imperial examination.

No, autumn is about to begin. With Feng Hongxue's past results and three more years of study, she will definitely shine in next year's spring. There is no problem in becoming a Jinshi.

His talent was noticed by many nobles in Beijing, and they all wanted to win him into their camp.

The first of these nobles is Liu Ao, the current Duke of Ningguo, the queen's younger brother.

Liu Ao devoted himself to supporting the eldest prince, so he naturally did not miss any opportunity to help the eldest prince develop his party members. He took a fancy to Feng Hongxue, so he wanted to capture his son-in-law and promised his daughter to Feng Hongxue.

When a merchant from the Feng family had such a promising son, his back straightened immediately. He looked down on the Lin family's business and wanted to develop his business in Beijing.

The Bupleurum that was originally promised to Mrs. Lin was taken away by a medicine merchant in Beijing who was related to Duke Ningguo.

When she mentioned this matter, Mrs. Lin was so angry that her face became deformed.

30% because of breaking the contract for the Feng family, 70% because they are angry that they have such a promising son.

My four sons together are not as good as one of their own, how can I not be angry?

I couldn't help but think of my fifth child who got lost while watching the lanterns. If the fifth child was here, he would definitely not accomplish anything like the first four.

When Mrs. Lin said this, Qin Muxiu remembered that there was a person like Feng Hongxue in his previous life.

However, Feng Hongxue was a little older than him and Pei Feng, and had taken the imperial examination in the previous session.

After the results came out, Feng Hongxue became famous far and wide, and many teachers in the academy used his articles to teach students in detail.

He has a good chance of winning the top three. No wonder Duke Ningguo's government takes a fancy to him.

However, the scientific examination in the previous life was not held, and I don’t know who will be better in this life when the two academic masters Feng Hongxue and Pei Feng meet on a narrow road.

"There are as many talented people in the world as the Qings who have crossed the Yangtze River, and it depends on their performance in the exam. This old Feng family has never produced a talented person in his three lifetimes, so his son will definitely be able to succeed? I think he gave up too early!"

Mrs. Lin gritted her teeth.

Qin Muxiu was noncommittal. The Feng family's business practices were indeed despicable, but Feng Hongxue's strength should not be underestimated.

If a person like this comes out of a family, it is not impossible for the whole family to ascend to heaven.

Of course it was not easy to say this in front of Mrs. Lin, so Qin Muxiu said nothing.

Mrs. Lin only regarded him as a villager and couldn't explain such a thing. She turned to talk about Zhao Jin'er's pills, "Jin'er, we were delayed because of this Bupleurum, otherwise we should all be here at this time."

It’s time to harvest the rice.”
