Chapter 453: A Pair of Soft-Hearted Parents
Chapter 453
A pair of children, Xiao Qixijing, that is, the legendary housegirl, is only a little old and doesn't like to run and jump, nesting in the room all day long, or reading books and learning characters, or fiddling with tangrams, as well as Erfu brought back those small tables and small bench gadgets from Zhuangzi, and now these two gadgets in front of her eyes, maybe in front of those children who can't be quiet, are not too tempting toys, but put in front of Xiao Qi, it is a real big temptation, just look at the shiny corners of the position can be seen one or two.
"Xiao Yezi of the West Cross Courtyard confessed that a few days ago, a little eunuch in charge of the front yard handed over a few Zhuge locks and Luban balls, and a set of sand tables to the little master, saying that it was a new gadget made by a skilled craftsman, so that the little master could pass the time with nothing to do. Yaoqin, who was sent by Erfu to search for foreign things in the West Courtyard, put the flat box-shaped thing in her hand in her hand in the corner of the empty tea table, and said softly.
Hearing this, Erfu raised his eyebrows slightly, reached out and tore off the red cloth covering the sand table, looked at the sand table with various flags, shook his head a little speechlessly, twisted his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "I can't see that this kid is only so old that he likes these things about marching and fighting, and he doesn't see who his small physique can beat!"
If you want to talk about the sand table, Erfu has seen a lot of costume films and anti-Japanese war films, and she understands the purpose a little, but she can't understand it at all, so she just glanced at it and twisted her eyes, but the fourth master looked very seriously, nodding from time to time, it seemed that Hongxuan's kid was doing a good job, and he was very proud of his father's face.
This is not the same as hearing Erfu complain about Hongxuan. Hurriedly explained: "You can't underestimate our Hongxuan, he is good at archery and horse riding.
A few years ago, his master Han Baoqing praised him for coming. It is said that he has a good foundation, and he will soon be able to get started with fists and feet, and when he is older, he will teach him riding and other kung fu!
You don't know, that Han Baoqing is an arrogant person, and he rarely praises people, that is, the eldest brother's kung fu back then was among our brothers. It's already a good one, but Han Baoqing still said that he can't be a climate!"
At this, Erf pursed her lips disapprovingly.
It's not that she thinks it's useless to practice boxing and horsemanship. On the contrary, for those weak scholars who are bored in the room and reading to death, they are very optimistic, and they support Hongxuan and Xiaoqi to exercise and exercise, and believe in the teaching that Grandpa Mao said, 'The body is the capital of the revolution'. Support Hongxuan and Xiaoqi to do these physical fitness. It can even be said to be a fitness exercise to protect yourself.
Even so, she still felt that the fourth master praised Xiao Qi too exaggeratedly, a child of such an age is a good practitioner, and his cultivation is a martial arts mastery like Jiuyang Shengong, and it is just a child holding a gun, that is, it is stronger than children of the same age.
If he really cares about it, I'm afraid he won't even be able to beat a little girl like Guzheng. That is, the fourth master, a dazzling baby madman, took seriously the flattering words said by the fist and foot master who held the rice bowl he gave. What do you rarely praise people like this, thinking that his child is a genius child, he can't wait to be a genius directly, and he is not afraid of falling down Hongxuan, a stupid boy.
Thinking of this, Erfu pouted again, seeing that the fourth master's attention was on the sand table, and he also fiddled with the Zhuge lock and Luban ball sent by Yaoqin.
- Hongxuan likes to use his brain, when he is not big, he grabs the nine links and does not let go, and the nine links here in Erfu are not untied by him, and he plays for an hour or two, and he doesn't feel bored at all, no wonder he likes such a small toy now.
Different from the Zhuge locks that Erfu has seen in modern times, these Zhuge locks played by Hongxuan are much more difficult, each with more than 30 pieces, which are tightly put together, and it seems that it is easy to untie, but I found that none of them can move, and they are entangled with each other like twisted flowers.
Erph, a quick-tempered person, naturally had no interest in untangling it slowly, just fiddling with it a little and throwing it aside, who made her a person who cheated on Huarong Dao, she really didn't have the patience to play with this kind of brain-using toy.
"Phew, how long will it take for them to come back, I'm really anxious, do you want to send someone out to greet them, don't let these two unconscious leather monkeys run somewhere else to play!"
"Patience is too poor!" the fourth master looked up at Erfu and whispered.
"Cut. Erf let out a sigh of disapproval, and then hooked the mirror on the long case with his foot, and lay there picking his nose and playing.
The fourth master shook his head speechlessly, squinted his eyes at Su Peisheng, who was a little surprised, and said coldly: "You said that you are a girl's family, why don't you even have the slightest rules, look at this sitting and not sitting in the same way, you even use your feet to take things, you are not afraid that they will laugh at you." As he spoke, the fourth master also pointed his finger at Yaoqin and the others who were waiting on the side, as if he wanted them to despise Erfu's undignified behavior together.
It's just that Yaoqin and others have long been accustomed to Erfu's casual behavior.
The fourth master, who didn't get an ally, couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and because of his identity as the head of the fourth master's mansion, it was not good to meddle in the affairs of Erfu's room, so he had to sprinkle the anger in his stomach on Su Peisheng's body, from Su Peisheng's inability to share worries for the Lord, and he had no eyesight to stand in front of the candlestick to block the light, and he kept counting until Su Peisheng's boots had mud spots on them, so Su Peisheng almost cried to the fourth master.
Poor Su Peisheng, a dedicated, down-to-earth, and loyal little eunuch, was also shot while lying down......
No, it should be said that he has already drilled into the air-raid shelter, or he was put by the cold gun of the fourth master, and he was swept away.
In view of the difference between master and servant, Su Peisheng naturally didn't even dare to defend himself, facing the fourth master's cold and sharp eyes like a sharp sword, he shrunk his neck, patiently waited for the fourth master to say that he was tired, picked up the tea bowl and moistened his throat, thinking that he had escaped, but he had just exhaled half a breath of turbidity, and he couldn't go up or down. I heard the fourth master's voice say in a cold and deep voice: "Okay, okay, don't poke here, you feel like an eyesore when you look at it."
Don't blame you for talking about you. I don't know what you're doing with this ear, I didn't hear that your Guerjia master was thinking about the little masters, so why don't you hurry up and go to the second gate to guard, and when Xiao Qi and the others come back, they will bring it directly over, so that your Guerjia master will be less careful......"
After speaking, the fourth master glanced at Su Peisheng unkindly.
In that way, it seems that the fourth master can't wait to drive out Su Peisheng, a fool who can't understand his eyes and doesn't know how to be flexible at all. It is general to find a clever little eunuch to come back to replace Su Peisheng's position, but in fact, he secretly gave Su Peisheng a look, so that he could have a suitable excuse and opportunity to go to the second gate. Waiting for the two leather monkeys who secretly left the house and did not return at sunset to deliver the letter, lest the two children hit the muzzle of the gun.
"The minion is going now. Hearing such an obvious hint from the fourth master, Su Peisheng was really stupid. I also understood. Hurriedly answered, drooped his head and ran out, the speed was like stepping on the hot wheels, no one wanted to catch up.
The hint of the fourth master was obvious, Su Peisheng understood, and Erfu, who was trying to entertain himself on the side, naturally understood it. He grinned and quipped, "Hehe." You are such a loving father. Then he turned around and continued to figure out how to clean up these bold children, ignoring the cold iceberg of the fourth master, who seemed to have turned into a loving father.
The fourth master replied disappreciatively, "Whose child is loved by everyone." He stopped talking.
......
"Amma, Eniang, what do you see Xiao Qi bringing you?" In the already quiet courtyard, there were suddenly a few noisy footsteps, and before Erfu could get up from the Luohan bed, Xiao Qi chirped and ran in from outside.
Xu is running a little anxiously, Xiao Qi's head is still hanging a little beads of sweat, a smiling face, red fluttering cheeks, like a happy bird, winked at the fourth master who deliberately made a straight face, and then threw himself into Erfu's arms, holding a few delicate peach branches, like offering treasures, pinched the most beautiful pink peach blossoms, and went to Erfu's sideburns.
"Don't come to this set, you better reflect on your mistakes yourself!" Erfu blackened her face, pushed Xiao Qi, who was holding her shirt and didn't let go, to the side, glanced at the fourth master with a face, and said coldly.
Erfu quietly threw the black cauldron on the head of the fourth master, and she played the role of a loving mother who deliberately rounded the field for Xiao Qi, suggesting that Xiao Qi should hurry up and reflect on herself, don't wait for the fourth master to turn her face, and punish her for copying books when the time comes, she doesn't care about being a mother.
Fortunately, the fourth master saw through Erfu's careful thoughts, and did not expose her lies, on the contrary, he glared at her very cooperatively, and asked in a deep voice: "As a woman, she actually secretly left the house and came back so late; as an older sister, she can't discourage her younger brother's nonsense; as a child, ......"
"Oh, Ama, don't recite the scriptures to Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi knows it's wrong, only this once, not an example!" But the fourth master's straightforward lesson did not frighten the naughty Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi came to the side of the fourth master with a hippie smile, hugged the fourth master's arm and shook it, and then interrupted the fourth master's unfinished words.
Xiao Qi was so coquettish, the fourth master's tone eased down all of a sudden, and he couldn't even care about the disrespect between Xiao Qi's words, stretched out his big hand, rubbed Xiao Qi's little head with a melon skin hat, handed the clean handkerchief in his sleeve to Xiao Qi's hand, smiled lovingly, and said slowly: "Hurry up and wipe your sweat, this face has become a little flower cat!"
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Seeing that the fourth master surrendered so easily, Erfu coughed lightly twice dissatisfied, and reminded, "Ye is used to her, next time she runs out to mess around, don't say that I'm not a good mother, with your big Buddha to support you, who can control this monkey." ”
"Oh, the child just came back, this doesn't wipe the sweat, what if you catch a cold?" The fourth master also felt that his behavior of disarming and surrendering was not good, but he still defended himself.
It's just that what he said, how did Erfu feel awkward when he heard it, and he wouldn't get cold if he wiped the sweat on his face, shouldn't you say, 'Go back and change your clothes, and let your mother make you something delicious, don't go hungry'!
Phew, no!
Shouldn't you teach these two leather monkeys a good lesson! Why are you still worried about whether they are hungry or not, whether they will catch a cold and pinch, Erfu sighed a little depressedly, turned her eyes and called Yaoqin and Guzheng, and said softly: "Send Hongxuan and Xiaoqi back to change their clothes, dress like this, it's not a joke!" After speaking, he waved his hand as if he was extremely disgusted.
In fact, Erf was worried that the two children really caught a cold.
The little ones ran outside for a day, and they were gray and sweaty, and they really wanted to wash well, but they themselves also knew that they had done something wrong, and they were reminded by Father-in-law Su that their own mothers were worried about them from finding out that they had left the house until now, and they felt guilty, so they didn't go back to the room to wash up.
"Aren't you going to teach them a good lesson!" Seeing the two little ones walk out of the door, the fourth master and Erfu said to each other in unison, and after speaking, both of them couldn't help laughing.
loves the child's heart, so that the two of them are reluctant to teach this lovely child too much.
Although behind their backs, both of them said that they would teach them a hard lesson, but when they saw the two children come back, the smiling faces that were happy because they saw the outside world, their hearts softened, and they were even reluctant to say a heavy word, only worrying about whether the children were tired or hungry, which is a common problem for all parents.
Just like when Erfu didn't understand that her parents were too busy and didn't have time to take care of her, she deliberately did something stupid to make her parents angry, and when she ran away from home and came back, the first thing her father and mother asked when they found her was 'Hungry!'
"Yaoqin, go and let Xiaoshengzi hurry up and buy a table of food, these two children are probably hungry. Thinking of this, Erfu stroked the peach blossoms on her sideburns and commanded with a smile.
In the small kitchen, Xiao Shengzi had already received the news, when Yaoqin passed, the fire maid had already squatted in front of the stove to light the fire, and Xiao Shengzi was like a thousand-armed Guanyin, wandering in front of several stoves, stir-frying the ingredients in the pot.
"The master will let the little master prepare the meal?" Xiao Shengzi took the time to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, and said without looking back.
"You're smart. Yaoqin replied with a smile, turned around and walked to the front desk, put a few plates of lo-mei that had been cut and plated and mutton pots warmed by charcoal fire into the food box, and sent them to the upper room first, and then returned to the small kitchen.
The spring cold is precipitous, although the two little ones are in good health, but the servants who are waiting in front of them dare not let them take a bath in the cool room, they just carry hot water into the clean room, wait for the two little masters to wipe the sweat on their bodies, and then hold the home-style robes that have been ironed and send them to Xiao Qi and Hongxuan.
In less than two quarters of an hour, Xiao Qi and Hongxuan washed up and returned to the upper room of the West Courtyard and sat down next to the dining table in the hall.
At the same time, Yaoqin took out a few hot fried dishes that had just come out of the pot from the food box, everything was arranged so properly, and the servants who served the little masters across the courtyard were so tacitly cooperative, there was no spare time between them, and they never let the little masters wait for a second longer, so that the little masters ate hot dishes and hot meals as soon as they entered the door.
