Chapter 517: Younger Brother and Sister

As for snails and mussels, Qiu Chen still didn't dare to eat them at this time. Although those things taste delicious, they often have parasites. Brother Yun is young, so it's best not to eat it. When you have time, you can fish some up, spit out the sediment for a few days, fry it thoroughly, and kill all the bacteria and parasites that may be stored before eating.

This doesn't need much attention, Qiu Chen led Brother Yun to watch the mother-in-law release more than a dozen shrimp pots in one go, and then found a quiet place and got off the fishing rod to fish.

Shrimp is a kind of shrimp pot, a kind of fishing gear made of bamboo or wattle, in which bones and stones are placed in the quiet water by the lake, and after a while, some shrimp and small fish can be harvested inside.

Qin Zheng looked at his son, who relaxed after a moment, and couldn't help but shake his head. Qiu Chen glared back at him, got up with a smile, followed his son down the Magnolia Pavilion, and walked towards the lake.

Brother Yun raised his head to look at his father, then looked at his mother and nodded aggrievedly, changed Wen Wen and walked over quietly, reached out to hold Qiu Chen's hand, and pulled Qiu Chen to get up: "Mother, let's go, let's take a fishing rod and go fishing!" And shrimp...... I'm going to eat boiled shrimp! ”

Brother Yun naturally had no objections, and as soon as he heard his mother's mention, he immediately abandoned his father and threw himself into his mother's arms with cheers...... Of course, the result was still intercepted by Qin Zheng, who picked it up, patted the heads of some sons and said, "Mother is pregnant with her younger brother, she can't stand the rush of your pounce!" ”

The lake in the back garden is not dry all year round, it is said that the deepest place can be five or six meters, and it is connected to the reed pond and moat that connects to the Shisha Sea and the outside of the city, and it is also connected to the Yongding River even further...... It can almost be called living water, fish, shrimp and crab roe, and even river mussels and snails. At this time, the water quality is not industrial pollution, it is very clean, Qiu Chen wants to eat fish, put down the bait, and soon there will be fresh fresh fish to eat...... Of course, this lake is full of common fish species in the north, such as crucian carp, carp, bighead carp, etc., and if you want to eat marine fish or fresh mandarin fish and anchovy from the south, you have to come all the way to get it.

Originally, Qiu Chen liked to eat fish, shrimp and seafood, but the pregnancy reaction caused her to have not touched fish and shrimp for nearly two months, and she had hardly even eaten meat.

Qiu Chen's heart was pounding by the eyes he had just handed over, and when he saw the serious appearance of others, he really hated it and couldn't say it, he glared at him secretly, and said with a smile to Brother Yun'er: "Let's eat here today...... My mother took Brother Yun to go fishing, and we will eat fish for lunch, okay? ”

Qin Zheng looked at Qiu Chen, blinked for a long time, handed Qiu Chen a look that only each other could understand, and gently bowed his head: "Okay...... It's almost noon, and after lunch, I'll take Brother Yun for a walk! ”

Qiu Chen smiled and nodded, turned his head, and met Qin Zheng's questioning eyes, so he smiled and said, "Just now, Mr. Mu came to ask for a pulse, and said that he was strong and had already sat firmly." I discussed with my grandmother, so I bothered Hou Ye to take Brother Yun to run and report to the Guogong Mansion! ”

In the blink of an eye, he raised his hand to wipe away the slight wetness from the corners of his eyes, Chen gently patted Qiu Chen's shoulder beside him and soothed him, and said with a smile: "Madam, didn't we discuss letting Master Hou and Young Master run errands just now?" ”

But after starting over and having another child, she still won't change...... In her opinion, no matter how strong and thoughtful the protection of parents is, it is not more effective in teaching children to be self-reliant, and it is the best guide for children.

In contrast to these achievements, it is the children's childhood that they have been deprived of, and the hardships and sins that they have endured prematurely...... It's a little sad to think about!

Even Brother Yun, after March 3, planted cowpox with Kang He, Kang He had a fever for two days, and Brother Yun only had a fever for one night, not a high fever...... The next day, I was jumping up and down again.

Although, the benefits of this are obvious, the children are very sensible and obedient, and the results are superior, and it is very important that the children's health is excellent, cold and summer, she also occasionally has a cold and flu, the children are almost not sick, even if there are small symptoms of diarrhea or cold, almost no need to take medicine, one day is fine. It has to be said that the original purpose of practicing the exercises has already been achieved.

Ah Fu started school and practiced when he was more than four years old, and Ah Man started school and practiced when he was less than two years old...... Now Brother Yun is just one and a half years old, and he is about to start...... No, in fact, Brother Yun has been secretly carrying out every day since Brother Yun'er was a few months old, and he was kept alive every day. None of her children had a carefree childhood, no naughty playfulness......

Inexplicably, looking at the appearance of the little meat ball son, Qiu Chen felt a burst of sadness welling up.

Brother Yun rejoiced, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed clumsily to Qin Zheng, only then did he get up on the ground, and subconsciously wanted to pounce over, but after moving, he immediately retracted, and stood beside Qin Zheng with his hands down: "My son has written it down!" ”

Qin Zheng snorted and said lightly: "Remember what you said, I just see that you can't do it." ”

"It works! My son can do it! Brother Yun is a small person, but he has a strong sense of self-esteem, listening to his father's questioning, he answered without hesitation, his eyes were calm, and there was no flickering.

Qin Zheng glanced at his wife, and received a ridiculous look, he also replied with a rather smug look, withdrew his gaze, but said in a calm and indifferent voice: "If you want to be a general, you have to endure a lot of hardships, get up early to smell the chickens and dance, practice in summer and winter...... You can't delay going to school at all...... Can you do it? ”

Brother Yun was a little dazed, subconsciously looked back at his mother, only to see that his mother just looked at him with a smile and gentleness, and there was no hint, the little thing was very annoyed, turned around and looked at his father again, thought about it, and finally had a flash of inspiration, pouted his little butt and slipped to the bed, stood in front of his father in a proper manner, and said with his hands and fists: "Daddy teach his son!" ”

Qin Zheng sat upright, looked at Brother Yun and didn't speak.

Brother Yun immediately retracted his gaze, looked at his father with a look of yearning and adoration, hugged his little hand to his chest, and said solemnly: "Daddy, teach your son!" ”

Qin Zheng also restrained his smile, looked at his son calmly, and had a faint expectation in his eyes: "If you want to be a general, you have to practice hard, not just to practice horseback archery." ”

As he spoke, the little fleshy body was straight and straight, the little belly was shy, and the childish baby face was full of pride, pride and yearning...... That small appearance, as if he was already a great general, commanding thousands of troops and horses, scolding Fang Xuan, and ordering troops on the battlefield!

Brother Yun got his father's support, and became even more excited, so he simply stood on the couch, took Qin Zheng's hand and said: "Daddy is a general, he is the Marquis of Jingbei, and his son must also be a general!" ”

Qin Zheng looked at his son with a smile and gently bowed his head in agreement.

Brother Yun listened to his father's repeated reassurances, put aside the worries just now, his little face became bright and happy again, and he nodded his head and said to his father: "When the time comes, my father will take me and my younger brother to ride horses and shoot arrows together...... Let's go hunting together! ”

The abrupt voice made Qiu Chen slightly startled, and after understanding the content of the words, he couldn't help but feel ashamed, raised his leg and kicked Qin Zheng, the latter didn't dodge, reached out and took Brother Yun from Qiu Chen's arms, pinched the kid's nose, glanced at Qiu Chen with a slight smile, and said to his son, "Mother will definitely give you a younger brother!" ”

"This time it's my sister, and the next time......" Qin Zheng sat next to the mother and son at some point, and said in a low voice.

Ah Fu and Ah Man are much older, especially Ah Fu has become a teenager, seven or eight years older than Brother Yun, there is almost no common language between the two brothers, and they can't play around in one place...... Although the child has Kang and Xiaowu to play with, it is inevitable that he is still a little lonely......

Qiu Chen smiled, looked back at Qin Zheng, and held his son in his arms.

Qin Zheng smiled and didn't help, Brother Yun turned around with some disappointment, leaned on Qiu Chen's shoulder, and nodded sullenly: "I want my brother!" ”

Yun Ge'er seemed a little disappointed, blinked and turned to look at his father for help.

"Poof......" Qiu Chen couldn't help laughing, hugged Brother Yun in his arms, patted the fat boy's back, and coaxed him, "Now no one knows if it's a younger brother or a younger sister, but you can know in seven months." ”

"Don't! Don't want a sister! Brother Yun replied categorically, seeing that Qiu Chen was still looking at him, he rolled his eyes and didn't think of a reason, and couldn't help repeating a little angrily: "I want a younger brother!" ”

Deliberately pretending not to understand, Qiu Chen smiled and said: "You already have an elder brother and a cousin now, you can go to school with them, and you can also ride horses and shoot arrows with them...... Why do you have to have a younger brother? Wouldn't it be nice to have a sister? My sister can also ride a horse and shoot arrows with you......"

Where is this kid looking forward to his younger brother, it seems that he wants to have a little follower...... Just like he's following Ah Fu now!

"My brother can ride a horse and shoot arrows with me, and we can also go to school and study together......," Brother Yun said very yearningly. Qiu Chen was slightly stunned, and then smiled dumbly.

"Why?" Qiu Chen was a little surprised. Such a little child shouldn't have a patriarchal mentality! Besides, there are a lot of boys in their family, okay, and it's not bad if this child is a daughter...... Although, after giving birth to a daughter, she still will not grow a delicate greenhouse flower, she will still try her best to cultivate and educate girls to be strong, flexible and brave......

"Of course it's my brother!" Brother Yun replied without hesitation.

It may be a little brother or a little sister - this sentence Qiu Chen almost blurted out, and with a turn in his mind, Qiu Chen asked with a smile, "Would you rather have a younger brother or a younger sister?" ”

"Uh-huh...... Well? Brother Yun nodded again and again in the style of an older brother, and it took a while before he realized that he had reacted, looked at Qiu Chen with wide eyes and asked, "Mother, isn't it a little brother?" Could it be a little sister? ”

Taking a breath, Qiu Chen glanced at Qin Zheng, looked down at his son who was still looking up with a face in his arms, and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, while smiling calmly: "Yes." You have to eat well, sleep well, exercise well, make yourself tall and strong, and in the future, when your little brother or little sister comes out, you will be able to be an older brother to protect him (her). ”

I didn't expect that after a long time, this kid hasn't forgotten this, and as soon as Brother Yun'er's words came out, it was inevitable that he would still be a little embarrassed, especially in front of a group of girls...... When I looked up, I saw Yuegui turning her back and lowering her head slightly, probably snickering.

Brother Yun ran over, Chengying reached out to catch the little meat mound, and gently sent it to Qiu Chen's arms, Brother Yun had a layer of sweat on his forehead, his face was hot and red, and his eyes were bright and leaned on his mother's arms and said: "Mother, mother, my father told me, let me wait for seven months, and my brother will come out to play with me." ”

"What's the matter, so happy?" Qin Zheng's voice came from the staircase, and the girls hurriedly closed their voices and saluted respectfully.

Qiu Chen nodded with a smile, Chengying and Yue Gui and the others couldn't help laughing, and a burst of laughter sounded in the Magnolia Pavilion.

Chen stroked his palms and smiled: "Qingxing and Yufeng followed, so naturally Qin Li and Qin Yong escorted them...... It's really fitting to kill two birds with one stone, and not be afraid that those two boys will not be satisfied. ”

Qiu Chen looked at the Lin family with a smile, and the Lin family immediately smiled and said, "I told my wife just now that it is most suitable for the Hou Ye and the little prince to go to the Guogong Mansion." As for Anyang, Sister Chen has to support her at home, so I'll take Qingxing Yufeng for a trip! The two of them are over there, and taking them back can be regarded as going back to their parents' house to meet their families! ”

Chen immediately smiled and agreed, "Madame, who can you think of to send?" ”

Their wife is very affectionate, and their lord is righteous and awe-inspiring, and will never do such a trivial and immoral thing!

Although the incident of Princess Nan Chen a few days ago did not make any waves, it really made the Chen family hold their breath in the know. Now that the lady is pregnant and has sat firmly in the fetus, she naturally supports the delivery of the good news with both hands...... No matter what shameless barbarian woman she is, her wife is the fair hostess of the main gate of the Hou Mansion in Jingbei, and the key is to prove that the lady is in love with the Hou Ye! There was nothing wrong with the barbarian woman at all.

As soon as Chen heard that the fetus was seated, he was happier than anything else, and naturally he was happy to report the good news everywhere. Hou Ye married more than ten years later than ordinary people, and there is only one wife...... Although these of them, who are close to the service, know that Mrs. and Hou Ye are harmonious and good in every way, but the gossip outside has not stopped. In addition, Mr. Mu diagnosed his wife's body damage, which was likely to affect fertility, and they were really scared at that time. The little boy's smooth production and strong body made them breathe a sigh of relief, and also made those people outside a little more restrained. Now that the lady is pregnant again, they all want to tell the heavens on the day they get the letter......

When Qiu Chen saw her come in, he smiled and waved her to salute, and said with a smile: "Just now, Mr. Mu came to check my pulse, saying that the fetus has sat firmly and the fetal gas is also strong. I'm talking to Mama Lin and them...... Send someone to the Guogong Mansion and Anyang to deliver the letter. ”

Mama Chen watched in Songfeng Courtyard as the housekeepers finished their affairs and hurriedly transferred to the Magnolia Pavilion.

A few days ago, because she was disgusted with eating too many fruits, she was afraid that the fruits would be cold, so Old Man Mu told her to drink red dates and ginger tea every day to reconcile the coolness of the fruits. Now although the pregnancy reaction has been magically eliminated, the red date ginger tea is still drinking, after all, the weather is hot, the melons and fruits are more abundant, and her own physique is cold, more susceptible to cold, or drink this tea to recuperate.

When she arrived at the Yulan Pavilion, the top and bottom had been properly arranged, and a wide low couch was placed upstairs near the window, and a brocade mattress was laid, and a layer of rush mats was laid on the brocade mattress, Qiu Chen in addition to the gown and skirt on his body, washed his hands and face, and only wore a cotton home shirt and pants, leaned on the big pillow and leaned on the couch, and picked up the warm red jujube tea on the couch and drank it slowly.

The Magnolia Pavilion is near the lake, but it is not built into the water like the Bibo Pavilion, this season, open the window, you can enjoy the moist and cool wind on the lake, but it is not too shady, moderately comfortable and leisurely.

After dealing with the housework, it was already the beginning of the day, the sun had risen, but it was still not too hot, Qiu Chen asked for a gauze hat to wear, and ordered: "Go and tell the master, that I went to the Yulan Pavilion in the back garden." ”

Because of pregnancy and the weather was not too hot, Qiu Chen simply refused the bright sedan chair and walked slowly to Songfeng Courtyard.

Because of the work that is in charge, the servants of the inner and outer courtyards of the Jingbei Hou Mansion are used to doing things according to the rules of the system, and Qiu Chen is also easy to deal with, if it is not for special circumstances and festivals, ordinary days can be handled in just half an hour every day.

A few days ago, when her pregnancy reaction was too strict, the affairs of the family were handed over to the Chen family and the Lin family to discuss and take care of, and now that her body is better, she naturally wants to listen to it and pick up the key disposal......

This kind of statement still exists in modern times, but Qiu Chen really can't think of any scientific basis, it's just a common saying that amuses pregnant people. She smiled noncommittally and shook her head, ate two slices of peaches, got up, and went to the director of Matsukaze-in.

Lin smiled: "People say that the little baby's eyes are poisonous...... The little master wants a younger brother, presumably the lady is still a young master this time! ”

Qiu Chen shook his head with a smile, but didn't say anything, just used a silver fork to send a piece of peach to import, and ate it slowly.

Lin smiled and served a plate of cut peaches, and said with a smile: "The little young master has always been the youngest, this time I can finally be an elder brother, I can't wait!" ”

When she laughed, the girls in the room finally didn't have to laugh and couldn't bear it, and they laughed silently.

Qiu Chen breathed a sigh of relief gently, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Mama Lin waiting beside him, and finally couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "This kid ......"

Qin Zheng was also instantly stunned, a pale wheat-colored face instantly flew with a layer of redness, and then, without waiting for the girls to notice his gaffe, he got up and hugged his son and went straight out of the door. I must have found a place to educate my son.

In modern times, she can do an early education of physiological knowledge with her child, and tell his brother in the womb. At this time, this topic is too sensitive, in front of Qin Zheng and the girls, she really doesn't know how to answer her son's question.

Qiu Chen was embarrassed by the question, raised his eyes and subconsciously looked at Qin Zheng for help.
