The fifteenth of next month is Chu Hanyan's birthday, and the capital and the provincial capital Shizhou Mansion will come to relatives to congratulate her on her birthday, so in a few days, the old marquis of Chu will take Chu Hanyan and Chu Lingzhi to Dingzhou Mansion to live for a while.

Although Chen Afu, the future mother, does not have to go to Dingzhou Mansion with them for so many days, she also has to congratulate them on her birthday.

However, Chen Dabao definitely can't go on this occasion.

Chen Afu listened to the laughter of the children coming out of the West Chamber, and smiled bitterly in his heart, they were all gone, and Dabao had to cry to death again.

Chu Lingxuan was also very helpless, he sent a letter to excuse himself, saying that the child's small birthday did not need to be specially rushed by the elders, but this time they all came, and even people who had never been there could come.

Perhaps, they want to meet their little daughter-in-law who grew up in the countryside.

Chu Lingxuan looked at the little fiancée in the candlelight, her eyebrows were picturesque, her skin was snowy, and she had another rich charm. Those who want to see his jokes are going to be disappointed.

His lips hooked, he reached out and held Chen Afu's little hand on the table, and said, "This time, there will be nearly ten female relatives, Shizhou Mansion will come to the second aunt and cousin, cousin, and little niece, and the second aunt and two cousins will come to the capital." My sister will also bring her one-and-a-half-year-old son Heng Ge'er, and then she will visit my mother and mother at Yingxue Nunnery, and she will stay in Tangyuan for a few days. You get along well with my sister-in-law and my fourth cousin-in-law, and the others can get by. ”

"Good. Chen Afu nodded.

Chu Lingxuan said again, "If someone wants you to do a needlework or eat or something, don't agree at will, there is something that can't be pushed, don't do it yourself, let someone do it." My daughter-in-law's good craftsmanship is filial piety to the elders and distressed juniors, of course, including me, the future husband, not something that anyone can support casually. ”

Chen Afu laughed and said, "Okay." Although I'm not the kind of person who can't afford to be unprofitable, I don't want to do more things, who doesn't want to be relaxed. ”

Seeing her smile like a flower, Chu Lingxuan couldn't help but feel excited, pulled her hands to her lips, kissed and kissed gently, and was reluctant to put it down.

His lips were soft and moist, pecking at her hand, crispy and numb, and she lowered her head slightly, allowing him to kiss gently.

When the two of them were silent at this time, they listened to Qiu Yue, who was guarding the door, say, "Fifth master, brother, sister, why don't you play?"

"We've had enough, it's time to do our homework." ”

Chu Hanyan said helplessly, "Sister hasn't played enough, but the fifth uncle and brother don't want to play." ”

Chu Lingzhi said, "The fifth uncle also wants to play, but Mr. Liao has left so much schoolwork, and if he doesn't finish writing, he will be beaten in the palm of his hand." ”

These three little villains!

Chu Lingxuan hurriedly put Chen Afu's hand down, and the two smiled helplessly.

Chen Afu led Dabao to send the three of them out of the hospital and watched them return to Tangyuan.

After returning to the room, Dabao wrote his homework, and Chen Afu worked on the side.

She was making new clothes for Miss Chu, and she sewed every stitch and thread of this new dress by herself. Chu Lingxuan is right, her craftsmanship is only done for people she respects and likes. And only the people she respects and likes, she does it willingly.

Dabao finished his schoolwork, and the clothes in Chen Afu's hands were also finished. This is a red jacquard brocade half-arm, with a Yang Fei-colored middle coat and skirt, because it is ready to be worn by the little girl on her birthday, so the color is very liking.

She picked up her clothes and asked Dabao, "Does it look good?"

Dabao looked at it seriously and said, "Well, it's good-looking, my mother's craftsmanship is the best, and no one can compare." ”

This kid has always had a sweet mouth

Chen Afu said with a smile, "This is for my sister's birthday, did Dabao think of any birthday gift for my sister? ”

Now, she no longer dares to let him go to the county seat to buy things by himself.

Dabao frowned and said, "I've been thinking about this all these days, and I've asked my sister too. She said that as long as I gave it, she liked it. When she said that, it was even harder for me. He was so worried that his eyebrows were twisted together, and his little mouth was so high.

Chen Afu helped come up with an idea, "Last time you gave your mother and your grandmother a comb, my mother was very envious of your sister. Just ask Grandpa Wu to help carve a small comb, and carve a double swallow picture on it, your sister will definitely like it. ”

Dabao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his head nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "Okay, okay, let's talk to Grandpa Wu tomorrow." However, the double swallow picture must be painted by the mother, and the swallow drawn by the mother is the best. ”

Chen Afu nodded in agreement. After thinking about it, he drew a semicircular comb on the paper, and on the comb there were two flying little swallows, singing with their small mouths open.

Dabao was overjoyed, "Mother, I've never seen such a beautiful comb, my sister will definitely like it." ”

In the middle of the night, a light rain began to fall, and the rain ticked on the eaves, making it difficult for Chen Afu to sleep. As soon as the autumn rain starts, it will not stop for several days, and the autumn corn will be harvested in a few days......

The next day, it was still raining. Because Chen Afu didn't sleep well at night, he slept lazily with Dabao and didn't get up until the end of the morning.

As soon as he had breakfast, Dabao went to Luyuan to find a carpenter to carve a small comb. Chen Afu was wearing clogs, carrying Dabao, Qiuyue was holding an oil-paper umbrella for them, and several people went to Luyuan together.

In order to be afraid of being disturbed, the father and son of the samurai family made furniture in the back cover room. Not only are the three fathers and sons of the martial arts family busy, but even Xiu Mu's little stone is here. After the age of six, the warrior men had to follow their fathers to learn the carpentry trade, and although they could not do anything now, they had to come and see, learn, and do some light work such as handing nails or carrying small logs.

Carpenter Wu listened to Dabao's request, looked at the drawings again, and agreed, saying that it could be done within three days, and he would definitely make the most beautiful comb in Dabao's mind.

After that, Dabao stayed here to play with Xiaoshi, and Chen Afu went to the front yard to go to the house.

At noon, Chen Afu invited Chen Ming's family of three to Fuyuan for dinner.

The old marquis, Chu Lingxuan, and Chen Ming were drinking wine at one table, and now Chen Ming was no longer nervous to eat with them.

At the other table, Dabao looked at Chu Hanyan with a smile, looking like I didn't tell you in advance.

Chu Lingzhi asked, "Dabao, why do you always look at Yan'er and smile?"

"Fifth uncle, just laugh, what is a ghost laugh?" the stupid little girl Chu expressed puzzlement.

Chu Lingzhi said, "Dabao's smile like this is called a ghost laugh." ”

Seeing Chu Hanyan looking at him, Dabao accepted the smile on his face and said, "Sister, I won't tell you about this first, and I'll give you an unexpected surprise then." ”

Chu Hanyan was even more anxious, and pouted, "But I want to know today." ”

Dabao endured and endured, and said, "I told you today, you won't be surprised." For the sake of your surprise in the future, my sister will bear with it first, okay?"
