In the south wing early in the morning, there was a loud clatter.
Aunt Xue's face lost all color as she knocked over the cup used for rinsing her mouth.
"Feng Bailing has passed the exam."
When Feng Xiangxue returned last night, Aunt Xue had already taken her medicine and gone to sleep, having not slept well for several days due to Feng Zhanlian's disappearance.
"She got lucky, befriending a disciple of the academy's head. He pleaded on her behalf, and Feng Bailing got the chance to become a nominal disciple of the academy head."
Feng Xiangxue twisted the handkerchief in her hands and spoke resentfully.
Feng Bailing had still managed to get into Yuxiu Academy, which meant that Aunt Xue had lost tens of thousands of taels that she had secretly given Feng Xiangxue to gamble with.
Aunt Xue was so anxious that she could hardly swallow a breath and collapsed onto the couch.
"The future of Zhao'an is completely ruined."
