Chapter Twenty-Four: Sleeping in the Same Bed
After coming out of Bairui Hall, Yuan Zheng took Doudou's little hand and walked in front, Gu Chao was already holding his breath, at this time, seeing that the wild child was jumping up and down without any rules, but her husband was not angry at all, but looked very happy, and his anger jumped straight to his head, Xiang'er had never been so indulgent in front of her father!
Bihe was afraid that she would not be able to control it and make trouble again, so she quickly grabbed her arm and whispered, "Madam, this is Bai Rui Hall." She knew in her heart that the master had done something wrong when his brain was hot, and in the end it was them who were unlucky to be slaves and maids, and she had to stop it no matter what.
Gu Chao glanced at her and said angrily, "I still want you to remind me?" The mouth is unforgiving, but the whole person is obviously relaxed, and the steps are also quickened.
Yuan Xiang had already woken up, and Duan's mother had also served her with food, which was actually a small bowl of bird's nest porridge, and she used a few more mouthfuls because she was in a good mood.
After dinner on weekdays, she would recline on the head of the bed and read a book for half an hour, and learned from Duan's mother that her father had recognized Doudou as a daughter, and she was even more worried about her sister, and she didn't read a word.
"Mom, let someone go and see when my sister will come." Yuan Xiang put the book aside and urged Duan's mother with a little irritability.
"My sister, you've asked three times how much work you have done, and I'm afraid Rushuang hasn't even reached Bairui Hall yet." Yuan Xiang was so interested in Doudou that he didn't even expect Duan's mother.
Soon there was a cacophony of footsteps outside the house, and the two of them looked towards the door together.
"The slave has seen the master, the lady, the girl." This voice is another big girl of Yuan Xiang, who is like snow, and she is also a clever person, although she has seen Doudou once during the day, she calls her "girl" because she is not sure what her identity is.
"This is your girl's sister, the second girl in the house." Yuan Zheng officially introduced Doudou's identity to the subordinates of Xiangyi Yuan.
"The slaves have seen the second girl." The maids and ladies saluted one after another.
"Xiang'er is resting?" Gu Chao had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and asked loudly like snow.
"Father, mother, bring my sister in." Yuan Xiang's somewhat excited voice came from the room, and the volume was not small.
The husband and wife were amazed, but after getting along for more than an hour, the daughter liked her newly-met sister so much? Growing up, I had never heard her speak in such a loud voice.
Doudou heard that Yuan Xiang was looking for her, broke free of Yuan Zheng's big hand and ran directly into the house.
"Sister, you've woken up." She ran to Yuan Xiang's bed in one breath and said with a smile.
"Has Xiang'er eaten?" Yuan Zheng was tall and long-legged, and soon followed.
"Father." Yuan Xiang took Doudou's hand and hurriedly called Yuan Zheng, not bothering to answer his father's question.
Yuan Zheng saw that his daughter was happy and didn't care about this, but Gu Chao was not, the more he looked at Doudou, the more unpleasant it became, what kind of ** soup did this wild child pour into this father and daughter? One by one, I'm going to her off!
"Xiang'er, how did you talk to your father?" She said with a cold face.
Yuan Xiang seemed to have returned to his previous cowardice, let go of Doudou's hand and said softly: "Father, my daughter has eaten." ”
Yuan Zheng glanced at Gu Chao, stroked Yuan Xiang's little face distressedly, and said: "Xiang'er is the most sensible and obedient child, grandmother knows that you like to play with your sister, so she specially asked her to move in with you for a few days, do you like it?" ”
"Really? Can I play with my sister and sleep together? Yuan Xiang was so happy that he wanted to scream for the first time in his life.
"Xiang'er, don't mess around, Yuan'er is still so young, can you still rest when I sleep with you!" In Gu Chao's eyes, how could a wild child deserve to sleep on the bed she had carefully arranged for her daughter, besides, she was so noisy, what if she accidentally hurt Xiang'er.
Doudou's deflated mouth, she couldn't talk much all night, how could she still be disliked!
"Father, I'm sleeping well, I won't disturb my sister." She looked at Yuan Zheng pitifully.
Yuan Zheng didn't like to brush Gu Chao's face in front of the children, so he had to smile at the young ladies: "Mother is worried that you are not used to sleeping together, and I am afraid that you will not rest well." But as a father, I think this is also a test for you, can you take care of each other and sleep soundly and sweetly? ”
"Yes!" The two sisters replied in unison.
Yuan Zheng nodded, pulled Gu Chao to the side and said with a smile: "For my father and your mother, there are still some things to deal with, you go to bed early." ”
"You ......" How could Gu Chao defeat Yuan Zheng's strength, and before she could say anything more stunning, she was dragged out of the house.
As soon as her parents left Yuan Xiang, she was greatly relieved, and a sweet smile appeared on her face again, and she moved to the side of the bed, "Sister, come up!" ”
Doudou couldn't wait for a long time, and he didn't need the help of the maid on the side, so he quickly jumped up with his little hand and kicked the little embroidered shoes, and looked at Yuan Xiang with envy.
After settling the two of them, the maids and daughters-in-law were all taken out by Duan's mother.
Yuan Xiang's bed was not only luxurious and exquisite, but also extremely wide, and Doudou saw that only he and his sister were left in the room, and he was so excited that he rolled several times.
Yuan Xiang was very happy, but I don't know what she suddenly thought, the smile on her face gradually dissipated, and there was a trace of melancholy in her eyes.
Doudou was a very sensitive child, she crawled to Yuan Xiang's side and whispered, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Sister, do you know what a concubine is?" Yuan Xiang turned over and suddenly spoke.
"Concubine? What's that? Doudou really didn't tell a lie, most of the men she knew were soldiers in the guard, and many of them couldn't even marry their daughters-in-law, how could they dare to think of such a thing as taking a concubine.
"A concubine is a woman who can give birth to a man in addition to the wife that Ming Media is marrying." In fact, Yuan Xiang knew that she had never seen a woman who was a concubine.
Ga? Doudou is confused, there are women besides his wife, and he can still have children?
Yuan Xiang saw that she still didn't understand, so he had to express his concerns.
"Sister, you are still young and don't know how important your son is to a family. It's like in our family, if the father has no son, there will be no one to inherit the incense in the future...... Do you understand? ”
Doudou nodded, "I know, the women who have sons in the guard are proud." ”
"My father and mother are not young, but I still don't have a younger brother...... Yuan Xiang said more and more quietly.
"I understand, my sister is worried that there are other women, that is, the concubine you said gave birth to a son to her father!" Doudou suddenly realized.
"Actually, I also know that my mother's temper is very bad, many times my father tolerates her because of me, I have been gone for several years, if my father finds another woman and gives birth to a son, what should my mother do?" The family has always thought that Yuan Xiang is a child who does not understand the world, but in fact, she understands everything in her heart.
"Sister is asking me to take care of my father for you and not let him find another woman?" Doudou finally figured out what Yuan Xiang meant.
