After the spring break, the weather gradually heat up. All kinds of flowers planted in the courtyard bloomed, and the fragrance filled the yard.

Jungkook has been transferred from the Imperial Academy to Dali temple for duty. He deosn't have much leisure but is also not very busy. The students who took part in the imperial examination together with him were now living in the court. It seems that only he hadn't been so popular in the past two years.

There were many snobbish eyes in the court. Seeing that he was neither favored nor liked by the emperor, they seldom talk to him. Some young noblemen in the family often treated him as a joke.

Jungkook often heard people ridicule him. It looked like he didn't care.

When Jungkook came home early morning, Sannie had just read two pages of the book. When he saw him, the child cried out, "Father."

Jungkook stepped forward and touched his head. "Do you understand?"

The child nodded, "I can understand. Uncle taught me."

"Did your uncle come?"

"Well, I'm waiting for you."

Jungkook's brother was the only one who had a good relationship with him. Jeon Yugeom was born by an aunt of Jeon Sunmi. He was also a commoner in the Jeon family, but Zhao Erye treated him well.

Jungkook saw him in the study, and Yugeom smiled at him, "Second Brother"

He said softly, "Well." After a paused, he asked, "What can I do for you?"

There were major events to be discussed. Today happens to be the first day. Every month on the first day of the month, Jeon family must hold a banquet. Everyone must go to the main yard to feast together. This rule was set by the head of the Jeon. No one dares to disobey it.

Of course, Jungkook, the son whom was hated by his father, was not paid much attention on this on occasion. He even heard several other cousins talking about him from time to time.

In the family, everyone except Yugeom, despised his birth and regarded him as a disgrace.

Yugeom said with a smile, "It's okay. I just happened to come here and teach Sannie the lessons. I thought I should wait for you so we can go to dinner together."

He didn't like family banquet either.

Jungkook was silent for a moment, his thin lips pressed in a straight line, and he said slowly, "I'm afraid I can't. I'll wait for your second sister-in-law to finish dressing before I go to the main courtyard. You don't have to worry about me. Go first."

Yugeom was shocked, and the smile on his face gradually subsided. He said, "Sister-in-law?"

Does that woman deserve to be called second sister-in-law? She was cruel to his second brother. He didn't know how much face his second brother lost. The most annoying was that she went to the bank to borrow money privately in the Jeon's bank account under the name of his second brother. This action was directly stabbing the head of the Jeon .

That time, old man Jeon disciplined Jungkook.

Jungkook understood what he was surprised about. He didn't explain, but said, "Go ahead."

Of course, Yugeom refused to leave. He had to know for himself since Sannie said that she had changed. At that time, he was not concerned about it. How could a woman's evil scorpion heart suddenly be better? He didn't believe it.

"Second brother, can't you see what kind of person she is? You mustn't let her cheat you."

Jungkook gave a slight smile. His eyes looked like it was smiling but it was not sincere. His voice laced with sarcasm, "I know."
