Chapter 66: Raising a child is not easy
When You Xiaoya returned to Hanxiang Courtyard, Jin Yuanyuan had just woken up from her afternoon sleep, and took Xue'er's hand to ask her to go to You Xiaoya together, but she didn't want to see You Xiaoya and them walk in as soon as she left the house.
"Mother~~" Because she had just woken up, Jin Yuanyuan's voice was still a little soft, but because she suddenly saw You Xiaoya, she was happy, so it was soft with indescribable joy, which reached You Xiaoya's ears, and she slowly curled the corners of her lips.
"Woke up? Hot or not? You Xiaoya unconsciously walked towards the house with two quick steps, and Jin Yuanyuan jumped down the steps with a few short legs, and then crashed into You Xiaoya's arms with a smile.
"Yuanyuan is not hot, what about my mother?" Jin Yuanyuan hugged You Xiaoya's neck and rubbed it, so unhappy.
"Sort of." You Xiaoya had just walked back from Li's mother's place, although there were green trees and vegetation along the way, but in such weather, no matter how you say it, you still have to sweat a little.
"When my mother enters the house, Yuanyuan will fan you and it won't be hot!" Jin Yuanyuan let go of You Xiaoya and jumped all the way from her arms to the ground, and then pulled You Xiaoya's sleeve and hurriedly walked towards the house.
"Slow down" You Xiaoya saw that the little guy was in a hurry, afraid that she would fall, so she took her little hand to make her walk slower.
"Miss is really sensible, she knows how to feel sorry for people at this young age, Madame is really a blessing." Mother Zhou saw that Jin Yuanyuan had grown so big, and at this time, seeing her get along so well with You Xiaoya, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
Then the group entered the house under the leadership of Jin Yuanyuan, but Zhou's mother didn't do it carefully because she was worried about the craftsman who repaired You Xiaoya's room. After talking to You Xiaoya, he walked towards the main house of You Xiaoya in the east wing.
And after You Xiaoya and the others entered the house, Xiao Cui'er gave an order to a little girl next to her, and asked her to bring out the sour plum juice that had been cool there when she went out before. Originally, Jin Yuanyuan was still shaking the pu fan and fanning the wind with You Xiaoya. But as soon as he saw the sour plum juice, his eyes lit up and He Xiaoya was left behind.
"Miss, take it." Xiao Cui'er took a cup of lukewarm, just the right temperature of sour plum juice and handed it to Jin Yuanyuan.
"Hmm!" Jin Yuanyuan reached out to pick up the small cup handed by Xiao Cui'er, and the dimples were sweet with a smile, but she didn't want her little short hand to touch the small cup, and the small cup fell into the hands of You Xiaoya on the side.
"Yuanyuan. Craving sour plum juice? You Xiaoya maintained the action of taking the little Gu just now, and the expression on her face was a little indifferent and a little serious.
"I want to," Jin Yuanyuan said honestly.
"Then shouldn't you thank Sister Cui'er for giving you this cup of sour plum juice?" You Xiaoya said seductively.
"Huh?" Jin Yuanyuan has never encountered such a thing, and besides, didn't she often eat what Xiao Cui'er's sister gave her before? Why didn't my mother say that at that time?
"Think about it. If it weren't for Sister Xiao Cui'er to let people boil this sour plum juice, and she didn't give it to you, if you want to drink it, where should you get it? You Xiaoya continued to ask.
Since the day she beat up, she said that she would raise Jin Yuanyuan to be a standard lady of the sky. She began to ponder after two days of idleness. This raising a child is a troublesome technical job, she has seen it at most, but if she really wants to raise a lady, she has no concept. Anyway, what should everyone look like?
Just like the women in this world, if you don't go out of the door, you can call everyone beautiful? If you can play the piano, you can call everyone beautiful? Or can you recite poetry and be good at singing and dancing?
After thinking about it for a long time, You Xiaoya felt that in her opinion, this so-called lady should first be a person who understands reason and etiquette. Regardless of the appearance and family background, this inner intelligence. Perseverance and gratitude must be indispensable.
And this intelligence and tenacity are slowly accumulated and honed in the future life, only the thing of 'gratitude' can be learned from a young age, so You Xiaoya decided that from now on, she wants Jin Yuanyuan to know how to be grateful first.
"......" Hearing You Xiaoya say this, Jin Yuanyuan tilted her head and glanced at the little Gu in You Xiaoya's hand, feeling that there seemed to be some truth.
"Since Sister Xiao Cui'er has done so many things for you, shouldn't you say thank you to her?" You Xiaoya feels that in order to know how to be grateful, the first thing she needs to understand is what others have done for her, and these things are not taken for granted.
"Hmm" You Xiaoya said very reasonably, so Jin Yuanyuan responded crisply and nodded. But then I thought about it, I obviously didn't want this before......
"My mother said this just to tell you that there is nothing to take for granted in this world, and although Sister Xiao Cui'er is serving us, if she doesn't remember that Yuanyuan likes to drink sour plum juice, and doesn't remember that this sour plum juice is too hot to drink and sweat, and too cold to be cold, then Yuanyuan thinks that this sour plum juice can still be drunk like this?"
You Xiaoya felt that she seemed to have said a little too much, but she felt that if she didn't explain it, Jin Yuanyuan would not be able to understand it, right? It's just that when she said this, even she felt a little numb on her scalp? A bit imposed?
"Mother's ......" Hearing You Xiaoya say this, Jin Yuanyuan's eyes were confused and retreated, as if she understood something.
"Isn't it nice that Yuanyuan can get sour plum soup to drink? So is this to say thank you to Sister Xiao Cui'er? You Xiaoya saw that Jin Yuanyuan seemed to understand quickly, so she changed her way and continued to guide.
"I understand my mother!" Jin Yuanyuan's little brain melon was guided by You Xiaoya so much, and finally suddenly understood that she wanted to drink sour plum soup because it would make her feel happy, and the reason why she drank sour plum soup and became happy was all because of Xiao Cui'er.
"Madame—How does this work?" Xiao Cui'er listened to the conversation between You Xiaoya and her son from the beginning, and her little heart was beating all the way, how could there be a master to say thank you to his subordinates since ancient times? She is a little girl, how dare she accept this thank you in front of her wife?
"How not?" You Xiaoya saw Xiao Cui'er's face flushed, and she looked flattered. It seems that as long as Jin Yuanyuan thanks her in the next moment, she will be able to kneel for her immediately.
"This, this ......" Xiao Cui'er was still frightened.
But before she could clear her spirit, she suddenly heard Jin Yuanyuan on the side say to her crisply: "Thank you, Sister Xiao Cui'er, for preparing sour plum soup for Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan is very happy!" ”
Listened to Jin Yuanyuan's words. Xiao Cui'er hurriedly took two steps back, and the whole person was simply messy.
"I said that day, I don't want to see people kneeling at every turn in Hanxiang Courtyard in the future, don't you remember Xiao Cui'er?" You Xiaoya's voice was calm with a hint of inexplicable majesty, and suddenly Xiao Cui'er's body that wanted to kneel was fixed there.
"Slave, slave...... Yes, remember! Xiao Cui'er suddenly remembered that when she talked to You Xiaoya the day before yesterday, she did say this, and she thought it was You Xiaoya who said it angrily. I don't want it to be true......
"Just remember" You Xiaoya retracted her gaze, turned her head and handed the little Gu with the sour plum soup in her hand to Jin Yuanyuan.
Jin Yuanyuan happily took Xiao Gu, and after taking a sip happily, she suddenly looked up at You Xiaoya. And said to her crisply: "Thank you, mother~"
You Xiaoya was stunned by her crisp voice, and then she had a strange feeling in her heart, some happy, and some emotional. It's like seeing the sprouts of a small tree you planted. When you come back to your senses. Only then did he smile and replied to Jin Yuanyuan: "You're welcome." ”
But at this moment, a loud and cheerful voice suddenly came from outside the house, which was Jin Yuanjiang and Jin Yuandong, who had just returned from school.
"Mother, Yuanyuan, we're back—" As the voice approached, a small, lively figure suddenly appeared at the door.
"Second brother, drink sour plum soup~" Jin Yuanyuan saw Jin Yuandong running over. The dimples of the smile were sweet, and he handed him the half-drunk sour plum soup in his hand.
"Wow, wow, wow!" Listen to the sour plum soup and. Jin Yuandong's eyes lit up suddenly, but when he thought about it, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and walked in front of You Xiaoya respectfully, and then bowed to You Xiaoya quite pretentiously: "Mother, my brother and I are back from school!" ”
"How did you become so restrained today?" You Xiaoya was a little puzzled by the little guy's sudden behavior, after all, if he came back on weekdays, he hadn't saluted her like this, right?
"Today, the gentleman of the private school taught us some etiquette in the ancient law, my mother sees if Yuandong is doing a good job?" Jin Yuandong said, and he saluted You Xiaoya respectfully, and his small body was well done.
"Well, yes, yes, but there are so many elegant Confucian appearances, we must continue to carry forward!" You Xiaoya didn't know whether the etiquette was right or wrong, but she felt that Jin Yuandong's serious appearance was worthy of praise, so she praised him unambiguously.
"Yuanyuan also wants to be a gentleman! Yuanyuan also wants to be a gentleman! Jin Yuanyuan heard You Xiaoya praise Jin Yuandong, and hurriedly put the little Gu in her hand on the low table on the side, and finally jumped next to Jin Yuandong, and gave You Xiaoya a salute in a similar way.
I saw that her small body was bent into a ball, and she shook it in front of You Xiaoya, and at the end, she asked Jin Yuandong who was very serious on the side: "Second brother is right to see what Yuanyuan did?" Is this what it looks like? ”
"Hmm...... This, this should be the left hand on the top and the right hand on the bottom, yes, yes, that's it......"
The little Jin Yuandong circled around Jin Yuanyuan very seriously, feeling that she was doing quite decently in terms of posture and movements, and when she wanted to praise her for doing a good job, she suddenly found that what Mr. said should be that when you salute, your left hand should be on top and your right hand on the bottom, and she took the palm of Jin Yuanyuan's flesh and gave her a change.
"Oh, is that so? ...... like this" Jin Yuanyuan also listened very carefully and changed.
You Xiaoya leaned on the low couch next to her, and the whole person unconsciously relaxed, she looked at the two fleshy little dolls in front of her, with an inexplicable doting smile on her face, but her eyes were calm and showed a trace of exhaustion, after all, after reading the account books in the morning, and fighting with Li's mother and her party for so long in the afternoon, I can't say that now that I have rested, I feel a little sleepy.
She reached out and pinched the bridge of her nose, which was considered to wake herself up, but as soon as she let go, she felt a pair of eyes fall on her, and she looked up to see that it happened to collide with the gaze of Jin Yuanjiang, who had just entered the house, in the air.
The kid didn't seem to expect You Xiaoya to suddenly raise her head, and when she made eye contact with her, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then pretended to be inadvertently looking at Jin Yuanyuan and them on the side, only the small ear roots were inexplicably red.
You Xiaoya didn't have that much attention to what Jin Yuanjiang, an awkward and stinky child, was thinking, and after retracting her gaze, she turned back to Xiao Cui'er and said, "Xiao Cui'er, bring some sour plum soup for the son." ”
"Yes," Xiao Cui'er replied, and walked quickly towards the outside of the house.
But before she could go out, she heard You Xiaoya say, "By the way, let the rest of the sour plum soup be tasted by the people in the yard, and this hot day will also relieve the heat." ”
"Yes" Xiao Cui'er was slightly stunned, and after answering, she ran towards the kitchen in the courtyard with a happy heart.
After Xiao Cui'er's figure disappeared at the door, Xiao Douzi walked in from outside with a pile of account books, and he raised a smile from the thick pile of account books revealing two small tiger teeth, "Madam, I brought all the account books back!" ”
"Let's put it on the table over there first." You Xiaoya pointed to the square table in the conservatory in the compartment of the room, and motioned for him to put it over.
"Great!" Xiaodouzi smiled and walked towards that side with the account book, but he didn't want to face an account book because he suddenly turned around, and a slip was about to fall to the ground, he was short and wanted to pick it up, but he didn't want to just move, and the entire account book he was holding was unstable and fell to the ground.
"Ahh
"Xue'er is going to help Little Bean." You Xiaoya's heart was clear, and when she turned around, she calmly commanded Xue'er.
"Yes, yes" Xue'er suddenly heard You Xiaoya say this, and was stunned before hurriedly walking towards Xiaodouzi, but the little cheeks were inexplicably red.
"What's going on......?" At the same time, Zhou's mother, who had seen the renovation of the house, walked in from outside the house, and when she saw the scattered account books and the little beans who were picking up the account books, she asked a little puzzled, but there was some reproach in her tone.
"It's okay" Seeing Zhou's mother coming, You Xiaoya said casually, and all her doubts were dispelled. (To be continued......)
