Rebirth of the Phoenix

Chapter 45

The last item, not to mention Lin Chengmao's guilt.Lin Yuting didn't realize at all that even if Lin Chengmao was her father, his tolerance for her was also limited.If Lin Chengmao had only one daughter, it would be easy to say, but not Lin Chengmao, Lin Chengmao had six surviving daughters, not to mention Lin Yuhui, a son standing there!Lin Yuting is neither the only one nor the number one, so why should Lin Chengmao be obedient to her?

Sure enough, when Lin Chengmao heard Lin Yuting's rude words, and saw Yang's embarrassment, he immediately burst into anger, "What's the matter with you? Haven't you realized your mistake after being confined for so long? Did you reflect on yourself?"

Lin Yuting was still secretly admonishing herself to repair her relationship with Lin Chengmao, but when she saw Lin Chengmao yelling at her for a good concubine, she was immediately stimulated. Putting her persuasion behind her, she said stiffly, "Daughter doesn't know what she did wrong, and where does she need to reflect?! Is it wrong to speak for my mother? Is it wrong to plead for my uncle?"

"You..." Lin Chengmao slapped the table angrily and stood up.

"Master, don't be angry!" Unexpectedly, the one who stepped forward to intercede for Lin Yuting this time turned out to be Chen, who hated Lu to the bone.

Seeing this, Lin Yuchan glanced at Chen Shi suspiciously. Could it be that Chen Shi saw that the position of wife was vacated, and why did she have any thoughts?So now you're starting to pretend to be virtuous too?
However, Chen's next words immediately dispelled Lin Yuchan's doubts, "Ma'am is still young! She is only 14 years old this year, and she is just a child. If there is anything ignorant, you can teach it slowly. Why do you have to be so big?" Be careful to scare the aunt. Besides, the wife just passed away, and the relationship between the aunt and the wife is very good. It must be very sad, and I am afraid that the mood has not adjusted! You are an adult, why bother with the child? ? Let her be spared this time!"

Listen to Chen's words, they are really nice!Lin Yuchan slightly hooked the corners of her lips.

First she said that Lin Yuting was still young, and then she pointed out her age. She is 14 years old. In modern times, she has not yet graduated from junior high school. She is indeed young, but in Ning Dynasty, women can marry at the age of 15 , Lin Yuting is 14 years old this year, can this be said to be still young?It is clearly implying that Lin Yuting is still so ignorant at such an age!

Let Lin Chengmao teach slowly later, but in a year or two, Lin Yuting will get married, does Lin Chengmao have the time to teach slowly?So when Chen said this, he was implying Lin Chengmao to discipline Lin Yuting ruthlessly.

The last mention of Lu's, on the surface, is to persuade Lin Chengmao to understand that Lin Yuting has just lost her mother, but after careful consideration, you will notice that something is wrong. If you have a good relationship with Lu, doesn't that mean you have a bad relationship with Lin Chengmao?If there is anything else to adjust the mood, it seems that Lin Yuting has not yet come out of her sadness, but why is she implying that Lin Yuting has not yet come out of her complaints about Lin Chengmao's father?

Lin Yuchan couldn't help but applaud Chen.If the Chen family had been able to have such means a few years earlier, I am afraid that they would not have fallen into the current situation.It seems that Lu's death has not yet allowed Chen to vent all his hatred, so he transferred the remaining hatred to Lin Yuting.

It is impossible for these words to have the effect of pleading, but to add fuel to the fire.

Lin Chengmao's temper was really even more unfavorable, "You are still young? She is 14 years old, why is she still young?! With her appearance, how will she marry in the future?! In the future, the daughter of the entire Dingguo Mansion will be given her reputation. Tired."

Chen lowered her head, slightly hooked the corners of her lips, and retreated to the side after she finished her work.Involvement or not, what does it have to do with her?Does she have a daughter anyway.Anyway, as long as Lin Yuting is unhappy, she is happy.

But Chen doesn't care, it doesn't mean other people don't care either!When Mrs. Li heard what Lin Chengmao said, she immediately became nervous, "What the master said is true! Madam, she has to change her temper." She has a daughter, and Lin Yuxian's age is the closest to that of Lin Yuting. If something happened to Lin Yuting, Lin Yuxian would be the first to be affected. Her daughter was not in good health, and it was difficult to handle marriage affairs. Isn't life going to be ruined just like that?
idiot!Lin Yuchan lowered her eyes slightly, a mocking light flashed in her pupils.This Mrs. Lu really died when Mrs. Lu died, and the mountain on his head fell down. He has been living so comfortably these days, and he has no door on his mouth. He dares to say anything. There are some things that Lin Chengmao can say, Mrs. Li But it can't be said, no matter how unfavorable Lin Yuting is, she is still a prostitute, so it's your turn to be a concubine to make irresponsible remarks?Naturally, there is no problem in interceding like Yang and Chen, but when Li opened his mouth, he would add insult to injury, which was a bit overstepped.

Lin Yuting raised her eyebrows and was about to explode.The faces of Lin Chengmao and Mrs. Xin also sank slightly.The others were watching their noses and mouths, keeping their heads down and not saying a word.

It was only then that Mrs. Li realized that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly added, "Master, old lady, this concubine is not here to trouble the younger generation, but I am also thinking about our Dingguo government! Have you two forgotten? Our daughter is going to participate in the audition! The elders at home can tolerate my aunt's temper. When she comes to her husband's house in the future, you two will support her, but if she is in the palace... then it will be It’s a big deal, it’s going to affect the whole family!”

From the beginning of the founding of the Ning Dynasty, there was a tradition of talent selection, and later it was incorporated into the law.

The law stipulates that Xiunu should be between 17 and [-] years old, without disabilities, diseases, scars, bad habits, reputation, and good luck.In addition to Xiunu herself, there are also corresponding requirements for her family and family members. If you want to participate in the draft, you must either have a title or an official. Father and brother have titles or grandfathers with a third-rank official position or above, and fathers with a fourth-rank official position. Only those who are above the fifth grade or above, and those whose brothers have official positions above the fifth rank, have this qualification.

The women who enter the palace through this way are generally born in noble families, and the royal family will also have certain preferential treatment.

However, the only way to become a concubine in Tai Chi Palace is through drafting.Of course, if you just want to enter the palace, there are other ways, such as being recommended by others, or offerings from princes, princesses, clans, and officials, or having specialties in a certain aspect, being famous and being recognized by others. When the sage learned, he decreed to bring it into the palace.But to enter the palace through this way, without going through the draft, one must start from the bottom and slowly rise to the promotion, not like the former, where the first appointment is the high position.

In her previous life, Lin Yuchan entered the palace through a draft. Although she was only the concubine of Anding Hou at the time, she was still named a talented person from the beginning. Compared with those women who were given as gifts, the situation is much better. .

Li's words brought back Lin Yuchan's memories. After recovering, Lin Yuchan couldn't help but sighed silently.It's really fortunate that Mrs. Li can think of such a high-sounding reason.

With Dingguo's family status and Lin Chengmao's official position, of course Lin Yuting also needs to participate in the draft.

However, Dingguo's family has been single-passed for several generations. Before Lin Yuting, there was no daughter at all, so there is no need to consider this issue at all!It was also because there were no other girls before, that's why Lin Chengmao doted on Lin Yuting so much when she was a child. But later, when there were more children, especially daughters, the rarity of Lin Yuting, the eldest daughter, naturally declined.

It is also for this reason that Lin Chengmao, Mrs. Xin, and everyone in the Dingguo Mansion have no concept of talent show in their minds. When Mrs. Li said this, everyone realized that Lin Yuting had to participate in the competition. Draft!Counting it, from the beginning of the founding of the Ning Dynasty to the present, among all the rich and powerful families, I am afraid that only the Duke of Dingguo has no daughter who has participated in the draft.

It stands to reason that if there is a girl in the family who wants to participate in the draft, it needs to be prepared and learned the rules several years in advance, but the situation in the Dingguo Mansion is special. It has not been done for many years before, so everyone unconsciously , just ignore it.

Not to mention anyone else, even Li himself couldn't help being stunned for a moment after saying this.

"Mother, Mrs. Li is right about this matter. It is his son's negligence. It seems that we have to make preparations earlier." Lin Chengmao came back to his senses, and said to Mrs. Xin solemnly.

Mrs. Xin waved her hand when she heard the words, "How can I blame you? You are a big man, you can deal with the things outside all day long, so how can you have time to worry about these things? It was also my negligence, Our Dingguo Mansion has never encountered such a thing, and I actually forgot about it. And Lu's is the same, her daughter doesn't know how to worry about it, if it wasn't for Li's sudden mention today, we're afraid that things will come to an end , I’m in a hurry!”

Lu Shi said: I was shot while lying down!

In fact, it's not that Lu Shi has never thought about this matter, but Lin Yuting's temper, Lu Shi knows best, is not suitable for entering the palace at all, and with such a daughter, Lu Shi does not have a son of her own, and needs her daughter to help her Yes, so from the very beginning, Lu Shi didn't intend to let her daughter go to that place where people can't spit out bones.She was planning to wait until Lin Yuting reached the age of the draft, and report a sudden illness, or other reasons, so that Lin Yuting would be exempted from the election.Dingguo Gongfu and Changxinhoufu add up, this face is still there!

It's just that Lu's thoughts have never been shared with others, so that at this time, Mrs. Xin put the responsibility on her, and no one helped to say a word.Some people don't want to say it, but like Lin Yuting, they just don't know what to say.
