When Xiao Jiu was a little more than one year old, he had learned to walk, but he couldn't speak.

He was brought up by the concubine, so he was also close to the concubine. However, since he could run, the concubine felt that she couldn't hold him anymore, so she simply called Meibian and Yuan Ziqing over, and said, "I'm old, he can run and move, and it's not appropriate to be confined to me in this Shoushan Hall." Besides, children still have to be close to their parents. Will you bring people back? ”

"Grandmother, you like Xiao Jiu, it's good for him to spend more time with you here." Meibian hurriedly said. Anyway, she stayed in the house, half of the time in Chengqing Garden, half of the time in Shoushan Hall, and she didn't feel separated from the child. It's that the concubine is used to having a child making trouble, and this is suddenly gone, I'm afraid I won't get used to it.

Yuan Ziqing also nodded and said, "Let grandmother teach Xiao Jiu, we can all rest assured." ”

"Don't say it. I've made up my mind, you're going to take the child away. The concubine said, "The eldest daughter-in-law has filial piety, and she spends half a day working here for half a day." You brought Xiao Jiu here, and it's still the same as before. Without him bothering me at night, I can sleep more peacefully. ”

When her old man said this, Mei Pan and Yuan Ziqing couldn't refuse.

The concubine pushed Xiao Jiu, "Your father and mother came to pick you up, you will go to live there with them in the future, okay?" ”

Xiao Jiu's eyes rolled around, looking at this, then at that, and finally ran to the concubine and grabbed her hand.

This child is good-looking, with his head tilted up, with a pair of big black eyes, and when he stares at you like this, he can really make a person's heart melt.

The concubine already liked him very much, but when she looked at him like this, she couldn't stand it at all, so she couldn't help but reach out and pick him up, and asked softly, "Isn't Xiao Jiu reluctant to give up his great-grandmother?" ”

Xiao Jiu stretched out his two small hands to grab the Yingluo worn on the concubine's chest, held it in his hand and shook it gently, the ding-dong dong sounded very good, and then he tilted his head and grinned. I didn't understand what the concubine said before, and I thought the concubine was playing with him.

The concubine said, "Look, such a young child will not grow up in front of him, and he should not kiss his father and mother in the future." Hurry up and take it away, let me see it, and I can't let it go in my heart. ”

It's like an old child. Obviously, she asked them to take people away, but they haven't left yet, and they are reluctant, but the blame is on them. He walked over with a smile and reached out to pick up his son. Xiao Jiu was also very familiar with her, and let go of his hand happily.

Meibian taught him to say goodbye to the concubine, and then the two left with the child in their arms.

The one-year-old child weighed more than a dozen pounds, and he didn't feel how to hold his eyebrows at first, and he couldn't stand it after walking for a while. She turned her head to look at Yuan Ziqing, "You can hold it for a while." ”

"Okay." Yuan Ziqing stretched out his hand.

However, Xiao Jiu just looked at him with a pair of round eyes for a while, and then turned his face and buried it in his eyebrows and chest, not looking at him.

He couldn't care about his sore hands on his eyebrows, and he leaned back and smiled while holding the child, "Who told you to be too busy, and you always don't have time to get along with him." A child is a rememberer, he doesn't recognize you, so he naturally doesn't want you to hug him. ”

Yuan Ziqing had no choice but to protect him in the back, for fear that his eyebrows and hands would shake and fall to his precious son. And Meibian was still discussing with the child, "Xiao Jiu, is it okay to let Dad hug him for a while?" My mother's hands are sore, and I can't hold you anymore. How much do you see how much your dad likes you? ”

Xiao Jiu seemed to understand his words, and quietly turned his head to look at Yuan Ziqing.

When he turned his head, he was very generous, not like other children, shyly hiding behind adults, carefully tilting his head sideways to show one eye to observe, but directly turned his whole person and stared at Yuan Ziqing.

Rao is Yuan Ziqing, and when his son looked at him like this, he couldn't help but be a little nervous. He cautiously stretched out his hand and called tentatively, "Xiao Jiu? ”

Xiao Jiu tilted his head and thought about it, but he really stretched out his hand.

"This kid is so calm." Yuan Ziqing looked at his son with a smile, "When you grow up, you must be a character." ”

"Of course, I don't look at whose child it is." He also smiled on his eyebrows, "You praise your son so much, are you ashamed to panic?" ”

"My son is already smart, don't you want people to tell the truth? Xiao Jiu, are you right? Yuan Ziqing rubbed his son's soft little face with his nose, and his heart instantly softened.

Usually he doesn't get along with children at all, but there is always a large circle of people around, Xiao Jiu is either held by the concubine or next to the princess, in short, it is not his turn. can recognize him as a father, and cry when he doesn't see him, he is already a smart child who can recognize people.

At this time, I brought it back and brought it myself, and it felt completely different. The little soft body leaned on his arms, so obedient, so that Yuan Ziqing gave birth to a kind of fatherly pride for the first time - the two of them had brought a child for a while before, but at that time they were just a little baby, crying all the time, and he didn't have much time to take care of him, so he naturally didn't feel much. Later, the child was loved by too many people, and he couldn't take care of him for a while, so he had to go to the back row.

Seeing that the father and son were close to each other, they stopped talking. If the son wants to grow into a man, he should still take the test for his father's teaching, and Meibian feels that this is the fundamental reason why the concubine asked them to bring the child back.

Back in Yinzhu Garden, Xiao Jiu seemed to be very interested in this place, and when he heard Yuan Ziqing say that this was the place where he would live in the future, he took him to look at several rooms, and his mouth kept babbling, as if he was seriously commenting. After reading it, he held Yuan Ziqing's leg and didn't move.

Yuan Ziqing had no choice but to pick up the person again, and asked with a smile, "Xiao Jiu is hungry, shall we go eat with my mother?" ”

Seeing that he had been holding the child, he said, "I heard people say that children should run on the ground more." Xiao Jiu is not very stable when walking, just let people look at it. Don't hold it all the time. ”

Yuan Ziqing was helpless, "He originally walked by himself, but he was probably tired of walking, so he didn't move when he held my legs." That little appearance makes people feel distressed...... He's still young, and it's okay to hug more. "Anyway, my son is smart, even lazy, let alone learning to walk.

He glanced at him on his eyebrows and said no more about him. Anyway, Yuan Ziqing has business, and he has little time at home, so he can hug it.

In the concubine's place, Xiao Jiu lived in a room with the concubine. But in Yinzhuyuan, it is not very suitable for a nurse to live in a room with a child. So I had to vacate the next room and let them live.

As a result, Xiao Jiu was probably not used to it, he slept very unsteadily, and cried several times at night. I was distressed, so I had to carry the person back to my room.

"It's only a year old, so it's okay to sleep with your parents, right?" She said to Yuan Ziqing.

Yuan Ziqing touched his nose, met his wife's gaze, and couldn't help nodding. But in fact, when they were young, they were also brought up by their nurses, and they were respectful to their parents and would not be overly intimate - they had little time together, so it was inevitable that this would be the case.

But now that he is his own son, he is reluctant. No one knows anyway, so it's okay to sleep with it.

Because of Xiao Jiu's calmness, Mei Fang originally thought that his child was a quiet and silent person. Unexpectedly, when he took him out during the day on the second day, he ran crazy in the yard. I almost fell several times, but fortunately, the next person followed quickly and helped the person in time and did not fall and hurt himself. Even so, I was still dirty.

After following his eyebrows for a while, he felt that his spirit could not keep up. No wonder the concubine said that she can't take it now, if she runs like this every day, it will be really unbearable. It's a shame that so many people take care of it together, otherwise I can't stand it.

took the child to Chengqing Garden to say hello, the princess was fine, so everyone went to Shoushan Hall together, the concubine saw Xiao Jiu, and immediately asked the child to go to her, Xiao Jiu immediately rubbed over, sticky. Apparently not used to leaving the concubine's side.

There was a little sour in my eyebrows. But it would be nice to think about raising yourself for a while longer, so I put this idea away.

A few women are in one place, except for gossiping, being a female celebrity, and occasionally playing a game for fun, there is nothing to do. So Xiao Jiu became the focus, and everyone scrambled to teach him to speak.

No one could understand what he was babbling about now. Normally, even my father and mother didn't learn it. Strange to say, most children learn to speak and walk one after another, and some learn to speak before they can walk. But Xiao Jiu was already walking very steadily, but he still couldn't speak.

If you don't know how to say it, it's just that an ordinary child, what he teaches him to read, he will naturally repeat it, and he will naturally learn it after a long time. But what about Xiao Jiu? No matter what you say, he just doesn't hear it. If you are happy, you should respond, and if you are not happy, you will ignore it.

After figuring out this pattern on the side of the eyebrows, I couldn't help but start worrying. I also talked to Yuan Ziqing in private, what if the child just can't learn to speak? Yuan Ziqing joked that she just thought too much, so she would let it be.

As a result, Meiban came back from Shoushan Hall on this day, planning to continue making clothes for the child. This little dress has been half done, compared to Xiao Jiu's size. I was afraid that it would not be appropriate, so in the process of doing it, I made several comparisons on his eyebrows. Xiao Jiu sat on the couch and crawled around, with the toys prepared for him by Yuan Ziqing beside him.

staring at the needle and thread on the side of her eyebrows, she didn't pay special attention to him, and when she reacted, she turned her head and found that Xiao Jiu suddenly grabbed the scissors placed in the dustpan! Eyebrows were startled, and hurriedly said, "You can't take that, put it down!" "I'm going to reach out and grab it again.

Who knew that Xiao Jiu was going to hand it to her, but when she saw her receiving it, she grinned, "Mother!" ”

The whole person on the side of his eyebrows was stunned.

After a while, she came back to her senses, threw herself over and hugged her son into her arms, "Mother's little girl...... What did you just say? Say it again! ”

Xiao Jiu giggled and stopped talking. A pair of eyes are big and bright, and they look very cute. With patience on his eyebrows, he didn't rub him immediately, but coaxed softly, "Good Xiaojiu, call again." Call my mother again to give you something delicious. ”

Xiao Jiu tilted his head to look at her for a while, and then grabbed a book next to him, "Dad!" ”

With a wry smile on his eyebrows, he finally understood that what he wanted to say was that the scissors belonged to his mother and the book belonged to his father.

"What about the mother?" She stretched out her hand to show Xiao Jiu, "What do you want to give to your mother?" ”

Xiao Jiu didn't know if he didn't understand, he kept his head down, threw the books aside, grabbed his toys again, picked them up one by one, and threw them away. After a while, he found the handkerchief that was placed aside from his eyebrows, grabbed it and handed it to her.

"Why didn't you call someone this time?" Itching on the side of the eyebrows.

If he had never screamed, it would have been fine, but he had screamed, but he refused to say it no matter how much he coaxed, which made her scratch her heart and lungs even more, and she had to listen to it again. So he used eighteen kinds of martial arts, wanting to coax the child to call again.

It's a pity that until Yuan Ziqing came back, she didn't succeed. However, as soon as Yuan Ziqing entered the house, she saw her lying on the couch with no image, and she was together with her son, and couldn't help asking, "What are you playing?" ”

Seeing that she had made half of the clothes, he shook his head and said, "You've been making this dress for almost half a month, why haven't you done it yet?" ”

Mei Pan turned his head to look at him, his cheeks flushed, and his eyes lit up, "Xiao Jiu called me just now!" ”

"Oh?" Yuan Ziqing was also surprised and delighted, "Call you mother?" ”

Nodding his eyebrows, "Dad, he seems to be able to scream, and I don't know when he learned it." As he spoke, he told Yuan Ziqing what had just happened.

Yuan Ziqing didn't have time to be happy, and reprimanded her first, "This is too dangerous, this time it's scissors, who knows what it will be next time?" What if you take a needle and prick yourself? He couldn't speak. ”

"Okay, okay, I won't do it in the future." Thinking about it, he was quite frightened, and quickly admitted his mistake, "Why are you not happy at all?" ”

"To be happy is to be happy." Yuan Ziqing took a book from the small table, put it on the couch, and then began to pretend to look for something, Xiao Jiu immediately grabbed the book and handed it over, "Dad!" ”

"Hey!" Yuanzi smiled and hugged his son, "My son is so smart, he knows who is to divide things at such a young age." ”

Meibian watched Yuan Ziqing open his mouth as soon as he made a move, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded. I've asked him to find something before, and he's helped him find a handkerchief, but it's just over to him. It's so unfair!

"It's got to be something you're looking for all the time." Yuan Ziqing gloated and taught her experience, "Who told you to always take the child to do needlework?" He remembered the scissors. ”

In any case, it is a great pleasure for a child to be able to speak. The husband and wife teased their son for a long time, and only when they were hungry did they remember to eat.

Ask someone to prepare something for his son to eat first. In fact, Xiao Jiu can already eat, and children as old as him have begun to eat complementary food. Drinking milk alone is not enough for nutrition.

But because the child's stomach is not good, so it has to be boiled very soft to eat, and when the eyebrows simply let the kitchen steam the vegetables, they specially use a small bowl to scoop up the rice and steam it together, and the steamed rice is fragrant and soft, and it also has the taste of steamed vegetables. Mixed with a little bit of vegetables and soup, it is Xiao Jiu's meal.

From the moment he brought the child back, Meibian began to train him to eat by himself. Because I heard Zhou Yingyue say that a child who is more than a year old can already eat, even if he sprinkles it, it doesn't matter, let him learn to eat by himself, exercise it, and say that he can be enlightened.

So the family of three sat down to eat together, and saw Xiao Jiuyi's spoonful of rice, most of which were either spilled on the table, or stuck to his face and finally fell, and very few could be eaten in his mouth.

But just looking at Xiao Jiu's appearance, he definitely couldn't see that he was so embarrassed. Because he sat on a special small stool with a straight face, holding a spoon in one hand, and every movement was very serious. It didn't look like a meal, but something big.

His stool was taller than everyone else's, and he sat down just as high as he was eating. But you have to be picked up, and then you have to take it down after eating. This method was also taught by Zhou Yingyue, saying that this way can let children eat obediently, so that they will not eat a little and play with other things. Develop good habits, and you will be able to worry more in the future.

Anyway, she always has all kinds of strange theories, and when she hears something reasonable, she comes back to implement them. Of course, it is also necessary to discuss with Yuan Ziqing whether it is necessary.

For example, the topic of the moment: weaning a son.

Yingyue said that children are more than a year old and should start eating food, and there are very few nutrients in milk, which is not very useful. In that case, there is no need to continue eating. She said to Yuan Ziqing, "I think it will start in a few days." I just mentioned it during the day, but my mother and grandmother didn't approve of it. ”

Yuan Ziqing groaned slightly, and said, "I've learned to speak, and it's time to wean." ”

…… Mei Pan wanted to know what the inevitable connection between these two things was, but in the end he didn't ask. Anyway, Yuan Ziqing agrees, so it's good from tomorrow.

The children of Fuwangfu are not like other families, they are completely raised by nurses and grandmothers, and Xiao Jiu usually spends more time with the elders. So after he could eat, he didn't look for a nurse much. The weaning thing turned out to be very smooth.

After learning the two titles of father and mother, Xiao Jiu's progress in learning to speak immediately improved by leaps and bounds, and soon he also learned the words "grandfather", "grandmother" and "great-grandmother", but it was probably more tongue-twisting, so it was very vague when he said it. But they can tell who it is.

In addition to this, I also learned other simple words such as "eat" and "want...... And he said every word very clearly, although it was not a straight word, but even if a stranger heard it, he could distinguish it.

The whole family is delighted with this welcome development.

When Zhou Yingyue knew, she still looked at her eyebrows with envy, "My two little ancestors, when will they be so well-behaved and sensible as Xiao Jiu." ”

The dragon and phoenix fetus is only three or four months old, in addition to eating and sleeping, only crying, and occasionally quieting down can Zhou Yingyue tease and live the addiction of being a mother. The worst thing is that if one of the two children cries, the other must cry too. The two nurses plus Zhou Yingyue herself are still very difficult to take care of.

However, when it comes to time, time flies the fastest. Especially in children, it seems that they can change their appearance in a few days.

Immersed in the daily life of raising children, there is no very accurate understanding of this.

Until Tianyuan Ziqing came back from the palace and said to her, "Xiao Jiu is not young, I plan to enlighten him." ”

Only then did he realize that more than a year had passed unconsciously, and Xiao Jiu had already reached the age of three. Three-year-old enlightenment is not too early for a family like Fuwangfu. Although Meibian takes his children to play games on weekdays, he can teach a little bit, and Yuan Ziqing even uses all kinds of interesting knowledge as games to test his son. But there is still a lot of room for true enlightenment.

"I don't know much about these things, you can just watch and do it." He said, "Do you want to hire a special teacher?" ”

"It doesn't have to be." Yuan Ziqing said, "Zifang said that Yingyue compiled a set of enlightenment books and gave her two learnings to her family, and now it has begun, let's send Xiao Jiu over and ask her to teach it together." Children have company, and it is better to learn and play at the same time. ”

"Then I'll go back and talk to Yingyue." Mei said, "But Xiao Eleven and Li'er are only two years old, did they start enlightenment so early?" "She originally wanted her little nine to play for a while longer. Now there is a sudden sense of crisis.

Don't say anything else, when Xiao Jiu grows up in the future, he knows that his learning progress can't catch up with his younger siblings, isn't it very embarrassing? How can you hold your brother's face?

Yuan Ziqing said with a smile, "I heard that it is...... Can't let your child lose at the starting line? ”

After pondering for a while, he couldn't help but laugh, "This statement is really novel and interesting. What is rare is that, when you think about it, it makes sense. ”

"Yes, the child is going to grow up!" Yuan Ziqing couldn't help but sigh.

When I heard his words, I suddenly realized that this year is the year of Yuan Ziqing's real name, and the second reincarnation of his life is over, and he is about to enter the third. has become a family, has children, and is proud of his career, no wonder he suddenly has such feelings.

Thinking of this, he pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's best to grow up quickly, and when you grow up, you don't want me to cāo." ”

Yuan Ziqing reached out and touched the face on the side of his eyebrows, "When he grows up, we will be old." When the time comes, will you become a yellow-faced woman, are you afraid? ”

"What about you? Became an old man, are you afraid? He asked him.

Yuan Ziqing smiled, "With the yellow-faced woman by my side, I'm not afraid." ”

"Then with the old man with me, I naturally won't be afraid." He looked up at him and said, "Don't worry, even if you are old, you are the most handsome old man." ”

"Hmm. You are the best-looking old lady. Yuan Ziqing grabbed her shoulders, let her lean into his arms, and whispered, "No matter what it becomes, I can still recognize you at a glance." ”
