September is the season of autumn and the season of fruits.

Kexin stood under the grape trellis and instructed the maid to pluck the ripe grapes from the shelf. After picking a small basket of grapes, Kexin personally washed a plate and brought it to the main courtyard.

Kexin saw that the main courtyard was quiet, and asked Gu You: "Is my mother painting again?" ”

Drizzle was married by Yue Yao two years ago, to the son of the shopkeeper in the dim sum shop; Xijuan also got married, and she was married to a showman. The two of them are no longer in the mansion now, and most of the things in the courtyard are handled by Gu You and Gu Lan.

Gu You smiled and nodded, "Well, Madame is painting in the studio, and Sister Xiang Wei has gone out with the three young masters." ”

Ke Xin didn't bother Yueyao, but put down the grapes and went back to her yard, and before going back, she said, "When my aunt and brother come back, you can let people tell me." ”

Gu You nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Xiang Wei took her three children to go shopping, and since the abduction incident, Xiang Wei has also increased her vigilance, and does not dare to take it lightly because she has martial arts.

The three brothers are now five years old and have begun to be sensible, so Brother Sheng raised his head and asked Xiang Wei, "Auntie, why don't you take your sister out to play?"

Xiang Wei smiled: "Kexin wants to learn embroidery from Mr., I don't have time." In fact, the main reason is not that Kexin is not available, but that Yueyao does not allow Kexin to always go out, and how Xiang Wei disciplines her three sons, Yueyao generally does not interfere: But Yueyao does not allow Xiang Wei to interfere in Kexin's affairs.

Yueyao has always felt that Xiang Wei's temperament is like a man, this kind of temperament is no problem to teach her three sons, but if you teach Kexin, it will be a big problem, women should be chaste and quiet, not to mention Xiang Wei is she is different, Yueyao doesn't want Kexin to learn from the two of them, so don't look at Kexin is only six years old, but she is also very busy, not only to learn rules and etiquette from her mother, but also to learn calligraphy with Mr., and to learn embroidery from Xiuniang, as for the qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, Kexin is not interested in the piano, but also lacks other interests. Therefore, Kexin learns the piano for an hour every two days.

After Yueyao came out of the studio, she saw that the courtyard was quiet, and the three children were at home on weekdays, and the yard was so lively: "It's getting dark, and Xiang Wei hasn't brought the three children back yet?"

Before Gu You could speak, he heard a crisp cry outside: "Mother, we're back." ”

Yue Yao smiled, the three children are already five years old, so old enough to see their own, Brother Sheng belongs to the loyal and honest type, Brother Fei is smart and studious, Brother Xu is clever and lovely, and Brother Xu's mouth is very sweet, very likable.

As soon as Brother Xu saw Yueyao, he immediately rushed into Yueji's arms and shouted happily: "Mother, I miss you, Mother, do you miss me?"

Yueyao was very strict when she taught the three brothers to read and write, and she was barely a loving mother on weekdays, so Yueyao scratched Brother Xu'er's nose and said, "Is it fun outside?"

Brother Xu hurriedly nodded: "It's fun, mother, you will accompany us tomorrow, okay?" It would be nice if every day could be like today.

Yueyao didn't hug Brother Xu, but looked at Brother Sheng and Brother Fei, and said, "Do you also want your mother to take you out to play tomorrow?"

Brother Sheng was a little hesitant, it would be good if he could go out to play, but listening to his mother's tone was a little wrong!

Fei Ge'er shook his head and said, "I still have to practice calligraphy and martial arts tomorrow, so I can't go." ”

Brother Xu rolled his eyes.

At night, the three brothers were not idle, Yueyao asked the three of them to write ten large characters each, which was not difficult for Brother Sheng and Brother Fei, but it was a kind of torture for Brother Xu, who was very active and could not sit still, Brother Xu was the most active and active, and he wanted to play on weekdays, and asking him to study and practice was equivalent to asking him to die, but Yueyao was extremely strict with the requirements of the three people, and had to assign homework every day, and when he did not meet the requirements, he had to double the writing.

Brother Xu looked at a stack of cut papers and said faintly: "Big brother, second brother, when did you say that my father would come back?" Daddy is back, so I don't have to write big letters!"

Fei Ge'er asked very strangely, "How do you know that we won't have to write big characters anymore when Dao Dad comes back?"

Brother Sheng also looked sideways at Brother Xu.

Brother Xu said triumphantly: "Hong Yang said that when my father was a child, he didn't like to read or write big characters, and that my father himself had suffered like this, and he would definitely not be willing to let us suffer like this." "Hong Yang is the youngest son of Hong Da's housekeeper.

Brother Sheng shook his head and said, "Mother wants us to write big characters, and it's useless for Dad to come back." "Aunt Xiang Wei is amazing, right? But Aunt Xiang Wei also has to listen to her mother, and her father will probably have to listen to her mother when he comes back.

Brother Xu shook his head again and again and said: "No, Hong Yang said that his father is the head of the family, and his father will come back."

Dad is in charge, and Dad has the final say.

Fei Ge'er smiled and said, "If you don't write quickly, when your mother comes to check your homework and finds that you haven't finished writing, don't say that we are not righteous enough, and go to sleep first." Several times Brother Xu did not complete the homework assigned by Yue Yao, so Yue Yao left Brother Xu behind, and she accompanied her by the side, and she did not let Brother Xu go to sleep until Brother Xu finished his schoolwork.

Brother Xu collapsed at once: "Mother is really, I want to be a general like my father in the future, what are you doing here?" It is enough to be a great general, and it is useless to learn more of these things!

Yue Yao listened to Brother Xu'er's words outside, turned to Hao's mother and said, "Go and check, who said this to Brother Xu?" Xiang Wei was unreliable in front of Yue Yao, but Xiang Wei acted in front of the child in a very measured manner, so Yue Yao was very sure that this was definitely not taught by Xiang Wei.

Yue Yao went into the house to check the schoolwork of the three people, and the focus of the supervision was Brother Xu, once Brother Xu could not complete the schoolwork and asked Brother Sheng to help, but unfortunately it was immediately discovered by Yue Yao, Yue Yao was very angry at that time, not only beat the three brothers, but also punished the three brothers for writing 50 large characters each, and also deducted the three brothers' monthly money for a month and all kinds of snacks, with that profound lesson, Xu Ge'er did not dare to do the same thing again.

Yue Yao took Brother Xu'er's ten big characters and nodded: "I have made progress, and I have to continue to work hard in the future."

When he went to bed at night, Brother Xu took Yueyao's arm and said, "Mother, I want to listen to the story." ”

Hearing this, Yue Yao's face twitched and said, "It's getting late, I'll talk about it next time." "Every day, where are so many stories to tell, and the most important thing is that Yueyao is not a good storyteller, so since the child is sensible, Yueyao has a headache about telling the child stories.

Brother Xu was a little aggrieved.

Gu You said: "Third Young Master, Madame has been painting for a day today, and she is very tired, so she must rest early, otherwise she will get sick if she can't stand it." ”

Before Brother Xu heard this, Brother Sheng said, "Mother, go and rest!" We don't have to listen to stories. ”

Fei Ge'er also said: "Mother, go to sleep!" Brother Xu: If he can't sleep, my brother and I will talk to him. ”

Brother Xu listened to Brother Fei'er's words, and didn't dare to say anything anymore, in fact, Brother Xu was not afraid of Yueyao, nor was he afraid of Xiang Wei, but he was afraid of Brother Fei'er, and once he played a prank to play Brother Sheng and Brother Fei'er, Brother Sheng had the demeanor of an eldest brother, and he didn't care about Brother Xu, but Brother Fei cut Brother Xu severely, and Brother Xu didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Brother Fei in the future.

Yueyao didn't go to sleep, and after a while out of the yard, Mama Hua brought out two bowls of barley and bamboo rib soup, one of the two bowls of soup was Yueyao's and the other was Xiang Wei's.

Yue Yao looked at Wei and added another bowl of soup and asked, "It's strange, you said you can eat so much, why aren't you fat?" Xiang Wei eats twice as much as Yueyao, and she always eats fruits, pastries and other things on weekdays, but she doesn't see fat, so Yueyao wonders where everything goes.

Said to Vidser: "Envy and jealousy!"

Gu You interjected on the side: "Sister Xiang Wei, Madame doesn't need to envy you, Madame is not fat." "Yue Yao Huaisheng's brother and son were a little fat when they were brothers, but they recovered after giving birth for half a year, and they have maintained their figure quite well over the years.

After eating supper, Yueyao went to the study to practice her calligraphy, and after practicing for about three quarters of an hour, Yueyao came out to punch and take a bath and sleep.

Xiang Wei shook her head helplessly and said, "I have never seen a woman like this, they are all busier than the prime minister." "Every day, I get up early in the morning to box, accompany the child to practice big characters at night, coax the child to sleep, then practice the words for about half an hour, and finally finish a set of boxing and sleep.

Gu You also felt that Yueyao was too busy: "Sister Xiang Wei, why don't you suggest to Madame that you ask the master to come over and teach the three young masters, so that Madame doesn't have to be so tired." ”

Xiang Wei shook his head and said, "Please come back, she is still busy!" In fact, Yueyao wanted to ask her husband for advice after her son turned three years old, but Xiang Wei rejected her, Xiang Wei felt that the child was still young, and it was not too late to ask her husband when the child was five years old.

Yueyao was reluctant at first, worried that she would be soft-hearted and unable to be ruthless when she taught her children, but after teaching for a month, she felt that she was still competent as a temporary gentleman, and she has been teaching until now.

A few days later, Yueyao received a letter from Jiangnan, which was written by Mr. Yushan, and most of it was to answer Yueyao's questions, except for some homely things, and after reading the letter, Yueyao said: "Xiang Wei, I want to go to Jiangnan at the beginning of spring next year." "The three brothers Kexin and Brother Sheng are also older now, and it is not a problem to go to Jiangnan.

Xiang Wei always knew that Yueyao wanted to go to Jiangnan, and she had planned to go to Jiangnan in the spring of this year, but she was delayed because of some things: "Cheng, then I'll arrange it."

Yueyao plans to stay in Jiangnan for a while longer.
