The world is clear and blue, and the eldest mansion is a mansion. The sun is shining and the courtyard is quiet. Sometimes someone walks around, but they all dare not make loud noises.

This deep courtyard is full of ancient and profoundness. The people inside are subtly and unconsciously abide by the rules, as if they are afraid of the quiet time of falling birds on the eaves and the shadows of flowers on the women's walls.

Although there is a golden plaque "Imperially Make the Duke of Wei's Mansion" hanging on the main entrance of the Gao family, the scale is already greater than that of any mansion in the capital. It is like a village.

Because the Gao family has not separated their homes for three hundred years, the house occupied an entire alley in Xiaoxiang Lane, Luming Street.

Thanks to the humble and low-key family for generations, they are not only appreciated by the emperor, but also admired by their colleagues.

In the courtyard of the eldest son, Gao Mingchen placed the ruler horizontally on the table. The sound made Ji Xing, who was kneeling on the ground, feel trembling when he heard it. He secretly looked outside the door, but there was no one, and he thought that he was afraid that he would not be able to escape the beating today.

"What are the two thieves looking at with their eyes dripping?!" Mr. Gao shouted in a deep voice: "Tell you, the old man has entered the palace today. The wives all went to the temple to burn incense, and no one can save you."

Ji Xing thought to himself: It’s more than that? My father was sent to the ancestral hall by you. My sister-in-law hasn’t finished her confinement yet, and even my book boy has been rushed to clean the study. Now I’m not going to scream, but I’m not going to be a cricket in a can, just waiting to be beaten.

When Master Gao saw him lowering his head and not saying anything, he thought he was really scared, and his tone couldn't help but ease: "Last time I asked you to study, I can ask if you don't understand. The uncles and brothers in the mansion can be your teacher no matter which one is. But you are unwilling to be at all. It's really a rotten wood that cannot be carved! Look at your brothers, you have already entered school at your age."

It is no wonder that Master Gao Da said this. The Gao family has always been famous for their children and their children are pure filial and knowledgeable. Even if they cannot become pillars of the country, they can keep their achievements and self-restraint and have no loss of virtue.

Unexpectedly, in the younger generation, there was such a guy like Ji Xing, who was rebellious. He didn't like studying and didn't abide by the rules. But the old man loved him very much and everyone protected him more, which really made the master's headache.

The eldest master Gao Mingchen has now become the Minister of Shangshu and is the patriarch of the Gao family. It is logical that he can't control the education of his children, but he can't let go of the lucky star.

It’s just because he and the lucky star are the uncle and nephew on the surface, but they are actually father and son.

Jixing is the youngest son of Gao Mingchen and his wife Hu. Because the third master Gao Chengchen had no son, Jixing was adopted by him.

The third master is casual and kind, not as strict as the eldest master. He doesn't demand bad luck in his daily life, but he is afraid that he will be tired.

Master Gao regrets that he will not be able to make a strong man, and he will teach a good star a lesson every now and then.

Ji Xing was most afraid of him. He didn't dare to refute every time he was scolded. Even so, he would inevitably get a few yardsticks in the end.

"Why don't you say anything? The cat took your tongue away?" Mr. Gao's beard shook three times in anger, and his voice raised again unconsciously.

"My nephew is incompetent..." Ji Xing hummed for a while, and his butt turned tilted uneasy. If he wanted to hit him, he would hit him quickly. After the hit, he would sneak out to play.

"Hmph! Apart from being so successful, it's useless!" Master Gao said angrily: "Why did you give birth to such an embroidered pillow!"

If it weren't for the good birth of Jixing, everyone might not have spoiled him so much. Now that he was spoiled, Master Gao wanted to turn his horse's head on his own, and couldn't help feeling deeply tired.

"Master, the old man is back!" The servant told outside the door: "I have arrived at the second gate."

After hearing this, Gao Mingchen hurriedly got up and went out, and did not forget to scold Ji Xing: "Kneel honestly!"

Ji Xing pursed her lips tightly before she couldn't laugh. When her grandfather came back, it meant that she had escaped.

The old man of the Gao family only has the name Su. The prime minister retired. Although he no longer cared about the government affairs, he was still respectful.

The current emperor has succeeded to the throne for five years and is only seventeen years old. He is too young and needs to be trained. Therefore, the government affairs of the Daxia Kingdom are mainly handled by the regent King Yong, who is the emperor's uncle and the younger brother of the late emperor.

The little emperor often asked Mr. Gao to go to the palace to teach him. Mr. Gao was also awarded the position of Grand Tutor because of this, but his name was greater than that of reality. After all, the old man was old and could not bear the fatigue.

"Why is the family so quiet today? Where are the children going?" Old Master Gao asked with a smile. He was born to be a very kind person and was also called "Gao Buddha Son" in the officialdom.

"I probably ran to the backyard to climb trees and pick fruits." Gao Mingchen said with a smile.

"When I entered the palace today, the emperor gave me three fruits," said Mr. Gao, as he took out three yellow fruits with purple patterns from his sleeve: "It was said that it was from Nanyue, and there was a name for the old man. He asked someone to call the children over and eat them with them! One left for Jixing."

"My father is too fond of the good star," said Gao Mingchen: "This child has been spoiled."

"I don't care about him anymore. Could it be that you are so restrained by you?!" Old Master Gao snorted coldly: "Is it that I was restraining you back then?"

Gao Mingchen was so choked that he didn't dare to argue, and followed his father with his hands down.

When Mr. Gao was sent back to the yard, Gao Mingchen came back and saw Ji Xing still kneeling there. From the back, he could only see his round face and Qiong Yao's nose. After all, he was still a stinky and stinky child.

At this time, another servant came to report: "Master, the eldest master and the seventh son of the Sima family have entered the mansion."

The eldest young master is Gao Zhao's brother Gao Xi, and Sima Lantai's cousin husband. Gao Xi married Sima and gave birth to a daughter last month, named Mei'er, and had not yet had a full moon.

"Lantai must have been treating Mei'er," Gao Mingchen said: "Hurry up and serve him."

As soon as he lowered his head and saw Ji Xing, he said, "Don't kneel here and pretend to behave. Go ahead to see the guests. Look at how promising Lantai is, you can learn a little too!"

The lucky star dared not disobey and got up and went to the front.

Gao Xi's daughter has been crying at night recently, and I don't know where she feels uncomfortable. It just so happened that he went to his father-in-law's house today and just met Sima Lantai, so she asked him to come and take a look.

Gao Xizheng walked in with Sima Lantai. When he saw Ji Xing at first sight, he couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't the monkey jump around today? It turns out that Tathagata Buddha is at home today! Your sister-in-law has left you something delicious in the kitchen. Remember to ask the maid to bring it to you."

Ji Xing asked Sima Lantai a little embarrassedly and called Qi Ge vaguely.

Sima Lantai nodded and replied: "I haven't seen you for a long time. If you have time, go to my clinic to have fun."
