Chapter 29: Coaxing the Child
"You said that my father asked the guards to tie him up and leave?" Jiang Rin raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong with this kid?" ”
Xie shook his head, "How do I know, but Ah Wen hugged Ah Zhi and cried." ”
"They're acting too nonsense." Jiang Rin couldn't talk about his younger siblings, so he could only reprimand his younger brother, "Take Ah Zhi to Yangzhou, what should I do if I get sick on the way?" Do you still want Ah Zhi to grow up in Yangzhou? What will Ah Chi do in the future? "Can the capital be compared to Yangzhou? At the beginning, Meng's mother moved three times because of her neighbors, why didn't they think about their daughter's future.
Xie Ze pursed his lips and smiled, "I think Ah Qi will return to Beijing in a while." ”
Jiang Ling shook his head, "I don't think so, he didn't dare to come back recently." "Seeing that my father was so angry, he actually sent a personal guard to tie him up and leave, obviously this kid has made a lot of trouble this time.
Xie Ze handed the slightly cold medicinal soup to Jiang Rin, Jiang Rin took the medicinal juice and drank it all, "Ah Zhi will stay with us first-" Before his words fell, he heard a call, "Ah Niang, Ye Ye-"
Jiang Rin and Xie Ze glanced at each other, and saw Zi Su coming in with her niece who was going to cry or not, the little girl kept calling Ah Niang and Ye Ye, the two looked at each other in surprise, Xie Ze stepped forward and hugged the little doll, "Ah Zhi is good, the eldest mother is here." ”
Jiang Wei looked at his uncle and aunt in confusion, how could they be? What about mom and dad? "Auntie, Ah Zhi wants Ah Niang." Jiang Wei panicked slightly, why did he wake up and his father and mother were gone? Aren't they going to take themselves to Yangzhou? Was it cut off by the uncle?
"Your father and mother are going out for a while, is it okay for Ah Shi to live with Dayaye and Auntie?" Xie Ze hugged the little doll and coaxed.
"Get out?" Jiang Wei listened to the words of the eldest aunt in a daze, could it be that her father and mother went to Yangzhou, and she stayed alone?
"Ah Zhi, don't cry-" Xie Ze saw that the little girl's tears fell without saying a word, and he hurriedly shook in a panic.
"yes-" Jiang wailed slightly, she didn't want to leave Ye yes and a mother.
Jiang Rin listened to the little niece's dry howl, frowned slightly, hugged Jiang Wei and patted her back gently, "Ah Zhi doesn't cry, you Ye Ye and Ah Niang went outside, is it okay for Da Ye Ye and Auntie to accompany you?" ”
"Ye Ye said that he would take Ah Zhi to Yangzhou to play." Jiang Wei rubbed his eyes with his hands, and looked at the uncle with big wet eyes, Uncle send me to Yangzhou!
Jiang Rin wiped Jiang Wei's face with a wet handkerchief, "Uncle will take you to the capital to play, okay?" ”
"I want Ye Ye Ah Niang-" Jiang Wei cried again, you are not my parents, she willfully pushed Jiang Rin's hand away.
Jiang Rin gently brushed away the little girl's chubby hand, insisted on wiping Jiang Wei's face, put her on the bookcase and sat down, looking at the little doll with gentle eyes, "But Yangzhou is too far away, Ah Zhi is too small, Ah Zhi will be worried about everyone in the past." Wait for Ah Zhi to be a little older, and Da Ye Ye will take you to Yangzhou again, okay? ”
"I want Ye Ye Ah Niang-" Jiang weiwei struggled with her little hands and feet, she didn't struggle, and continued to cry, but her voice began to lower, she didn't howl anymore, she was so tired from howling, she wanted to replenish her strength.
Jiang Rin sighed, took the water handed by his wife and fed it to Jiang Wei's mouth, Jiang Wei drank a cup of white water, and then continued to cry. Xie Ze rubbed his brows, is this still a child? It feels like I'm going to have a lot of energy.
Jiang Rin didn't speak, just patted her back gently, Jiang Wei cried and cried and couldn't cry anymore, huh, how can you cry without anyone cheering? Jiang Wei was even more sad, if Ye Ye and Ah Niang were here, they would have coaxed her and coaxed her, Jiang Wei thought about it and tears came out again, this time she really cried.
Jiang Rin listened to the little niece's whispered crying more distressing than crying, she was just howling before, Jiang Rin didn't care, just crying tired, but now she is really crying, "Ah Zhi will be able to come back in a few years, and I will always accompany Ah Shi when the time comes, okay?" ”
Ah Qi has been in the capital for a long time, it's time to go out to experience the experience, the principle of Daqin officialdom is that all officials who do not go to the prefecture and county do not plan to Taiwan Province, that is to say, if you want to become a senior official of the three provinces and the imperial history platform, you must have experience in serving as a county commander and assassinating history, Jiang Ling wants to go further, and he must be outside. The father is getting older, San Lang and Goro will still be young in the future, and Ah Qi will need to support the Jiang family for at least ten years in the middle, even if he doesn't say that he will go to Yangzhou this time, they will let him go. This is also Jiang Ling's idea that he is reluctant to let his daughter go, and he only takes his daughter away, he never thought of calling back, his father and brother have indulged him for a long time.
"Ah Shi is older." Did her parents' childhood fly again? Jiang Wei was uncomfortable.
"Ah Zhi will always be a child in the eyes of Dayaye." Jiang Rin said.
"Kid cheat!" The more Jiang Wei thought about it, the more sad she became, and she began to burp when she cried.
Jiang Rin chuckled, "Ah Zhi is a child." He held Jiang Wei in one hand, and slowly got up with the armrest in the other, Xie Ze subconsciously wanted to pick up Jiang Wei, but after thinking about it, he retracted his hand, Jiang Wei's crying stopped, and looked at the uncle worriedly, although she didn't know what illness the uncle had, but she knew that the uncle's body was very weak, and her current weight was a big burden on the uncle, Jiang Wei subconsciously moved her body.
Jiang Rin saw the little girl looking at him worriedly, and smiled bitterly, he had never regretted his actions, but this time he really felt a little regretful, not regretting leaving Ah Zhi behind, but the means of leaving Ah Zhi were too rough, and he didn't care about Ah Zhi's thoughts. It's no wonder that Jiang Rin can't think of it, officials have always been released to say that they are bringing children, even their wives will not be with them, and the first feeling of anyone when they hear that Jiang Ling wants to take his daughter with him is nonsense, even if he takes San Lang away, Jiang Rin will not object, San Lang is old, it is good to go out and see and understand.
Jiang Rin took Jiang Wei to the outside of the courtyard, "Uncle never lies. Jiang Rin put Jiang Wei under the tree and compared her height, asking people to carve a scratch on the tree, "We will record Ah Zhi's height under the tree every year and today in the future, okay?" Wait for Ye Ye and Ah Niang to come back, and show Ah Zhi and them how much Ah Zhi has grown. ”
Jiang Wei looked at the uncle in a daze, she was stunned by the uncle, didn't she want yes and A-Niang? Why is it up to her height?
"Ah Zhi wants Ye Ye and Ah Niang to come back immediately, but Da Ye Ye can't promise you." Jiang Rin sat down and let Jiang Wei sit on his lap, "But Da Ye Ye promised you, will we write a letter to Ye Ye Ah Niang every month?" ”
Jiang lowered her head slightly, and subconsciously kicked her little feet, she was not a real child after all, she originally just wanted to cry a few more times to make the uncle soft-hearted, but the uncle made her embarrassed to be willful anymore, she leaned on the uncle's arms aggrievedly, she just didn't want to be separated from her parents, she didn't want to be without her parents every birthday.
"Ah Shi waits, at most three years, Da Ye Ye will let you come back." Jiang Rin sighed and softened.
Xie Ze raised her eyebrows, she remembered that he had discussed with the family before, he was going to throw Ah Qi out for ten years, Jiang Rin smiled helplessly at her, Jiang Wei unconsciously pulled his small purse, "Ye Ye busy-" Will she be too willful?
"No matter how busy you are, you have to accompany Ah Zhi, right?" Jiang Rin's slightly cool fingers gently sorted out the little girl's scattered forehead hair, Jiang Wei cried too hard, her forehead was full of sweat, and her hair was all stuck to her forehead.
Jiang Wei looked up and saw that the uncle smiled so gently at him, and his body subconsciously leaned into the uncle's arms, and the uncle's body was so cold, "Ah Zhi also accompanies Da Ye Ye and Auntie." ”
Jiang Rin hugged his fleshy hot little body, feeling that his body was also warm, and a shallow smile appeared in his eyes, "Does Ah Zhi like butterflies?" Da Yaye will carve you another butterfly, and we will be a pair. "Jiang Rin's ivory carvings for Jiang Wei were all carved by himself.
"I want a little green." Jiang Wei sniffed and said, Speaking of Xiaolu, Jiang Wei admires the calmness of his family, if other people see the little girl raising a little snake, even if they are not startled, they will make people throw it out, but her family is not surprised, A-Niang is also interested in helping her feed Xiaolu every day, which makes Jiang Wei happy.
"Okay, just carve a little green." Jiang Rin agreed.
Jiang Wei burst into laughter, Jiang Rin wiped away the tears on her cheeks, Xie Ze was surprised when he looked at this scene, who can understand the meaning of adults so smoothly when a child is less than two years old.
Jiang Rin knew that Ah Mei had read the female commandments to Jiang Wei for enlightenment, and he also felt that this book was more suitable for girls to read, so he asked Jiang Wei to sit beside him, drawing butterflies carved with ivory while slowly telling her the female commandments, and Xie Ze asked the maid to grind ink and draw the scene in front of him.
Because Jiang Wei was stolen out by Jiang Ling and his wife in the middle of the night, after a bumpy night, Jiang Rin and Xie Ze didn't dare to take her back immediately, and after evening, Xie Ze personally took her to take a hot bath, and coaxed her to drink a bowl of hot ginger soup, and then asked Zi Su to take her down to rest.
Xie Ze went back to the room, Jiang Rin was flipping through the case file, and Xie Ze asked, "Are you really going to let Ah Qi come back within three years?" ”
"Yes." Jiang Rin has always been true to his word, even if he promised a little girl, "I didn't expect him to do anything, as long as the Jiang family would not be left alone in the court for several years." ”
"What did you say Gorou did to make the family so angry." Xie asked.
Jiang Rin put down the case file and said in a calm tone: "He prepared an all-deer banquet for his father, with venison, deer blood, and deer antlers. ”
Xie Ze was shocked for a while before coming back to his senses, "This kid is not afraid that the family will beat him?" ”
"That's why he was tied up and sent to Yangzhou." Jiang Rin said.
Xie Ze shook his head, "That's why he dares to do this." ”
Jiang Ling is the youngest child, Mrs. Wang inevitably has some partial pain, but Jiang Ke always felt that his young son was messing around too much, and he taught him a lot when he was a child, and then Jiang Rin and Jiang Guo had an accident, Jiang Ke watched his two proud sons die and be injured, and couldn't help but think that if he didn't teach his son so well, maybe they wouldn't go to the battlefield, and it wouldn't be like this, so he changed the way he educated his children, and sometimes even indulged Jiang Ling more than Mrs. Wang, so he developed Jiang Ling's lawless temper.
"Father can't blame anyone else." Jiang Rin said that he was the one who spoiled Gorou.
"I don't know how Ah Qi and Ah Wen were raised, I think Ah Chi was smarter than Saburo when he was a child?" Xie said.
"There are only two kinds of wise people, one is intelligent by nature, and they learn what they are, like Aqi; There is also a natural well-behaved and caring one, which makes people like it from the bottom of their hearts, and Ah Zhi is the second type, so I can't let them come to the husband and wife. "Jiang Ling's personality is too uninhibited, he regards etiquette and religion as nothing, they are lucky as husband and wife, they grew up as childhood sweethearts, and they are each other's confidants, but what about Ah Zhi? She may not have their luck, and he resolutely does not let Jiang Ling teach Ah Zhi messy things.
If Jiang Wei heard Jiang Rin's words, he must have been shocked by the uncle, didn't he mean that there are two kinds of smart people, one with high IQ and the other with high EQ.
"How do you know she's not as smart as Ah Qi?" Xie asked.
"It's full of losses, I'd rather be stupid." Jiang Rin said, "Is Qi Niang still here recently?" ”
Xie Ze said: "I don't come often, but I will give Ah Zhi a lot of small toys." ”
"Let Ah Zhi stay away from her." Jiang Rin said lightly, "Whatever she sends, you will return it twice." ”
Xie Ze nodded, she was mediocre to Qi Niang, but Mrs. Wang and Shen Qin were very good to her, "She just lost such a father." ”
"If only she were like her father." Jiang Rin seems to be smiling, her mother is old and soft-hearted, so she takes care of Xiao Qi more, Jiang Rin doesn't care, the Jiang family can't afford to raise children, her mother can do whatever she wants, but he will never allow Xiao Qi to be close to Ah Zhi. Jiang Rin has always been a believer in gathering people by like, in the environment of the second room, he didn't believe that he could raise such a good child, and it was not that there was no one who was close to ink, but it was too little, Jiang Rin would not take the most beloved baby to bet on that possibility.
Xie Ze said, "If she is really like her father, how will she live in the future?" ”
"As long as they are not greedy, it is not easy to find a gentle child?" Jiang Rin's smile had a little deep meaning, but the last thing they lacked was not contentment.
Xie Ze smiled, the child in the second room was not her turn to worry, "I don't know if Ah Zhi is sleeping now." ”
Jiang Rin was silent for a while, "Let's go see her." ”
Jiang Wei slept next to the two, Zi Su had already put her to sleep, and was making her little socks with Qing Dai outside, seeing Jiang Rin and Xie Ze coming in, just wanted to get up and say goodbye, Xie Ze shook his head slightly at them, and the two tiptoed into the inner room.
In the room, Jiang Wei slept on the couch sideways, a small fist was placed next to his mouth, breathing evenly, his cheeks were still flushed, his small mouth was pouting, and he wanted people to take a bite, Jiang Rin and Xie Ze were fascinated by it.
The two glanced at each other, Jiang Rin bent down and carefully picked up Jiang Wei, and the little girl kicked her legs and didn't wake up. Xie put a cloak on her, and the couple carried her back to the room, placed her in the middle of the bed, and the two of them lay down on their sides.
Xie Ze carefully brushed Jiang Wei's hair, Jiang muttered slightly, and got into Xie Ze's arms, Xie Ze's whole body stiffened. Although the three Jiang Lu brothers were raised by the two, they were still taken care of by Mrs. Wang, Xie Ze was also worried that Ah Wen would think more, thinking that she wanted to rob her son with herself, in addition to her studies, she would let Shen Qin take care of most of the three things, Jiang Lu's three brothers respected the uncle and aunt, and were close to their biological parents, Xie Ze had not really come into contact with such a small and soft child, her body stiffened for a while, and then she adjusted a comfortable posture for the little girl.
Jiang Rin looked at his wife apologetically, he and Xie were married since childhood, after he was seriously injured, the Jiang family wanted to withdraw from the marriage, and did not want to hurt Xie Ze for the rest of his life, but Xie Ze still insisted on marrying, if she didn't marry herself, she might even have a grandson now.
Xie Ze smiled slightly, held his hand, Jiang Rin covered the futon for her and Jiang Wei, and the two of them went to sleep so early for the first time.
Early the next morning, Jiang Rin felt that he was awakened by the heat for the first time, especially when he was holding a small stove in his arms, Jiang Rin opened his eyes and saw his little niece clinging to him, and he smiled.
Xie Ze also woke up, and couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene, "I didn't expect the child to be so hot." "Ah Zhiding also went to paste Jiang Rin because he was too hot.
"Children are angry." Jiang Rin carefully removed Jiang Wei and wrapped her firmly in the quilt, the husband and wife got up and prepared to return to Beijing.
Just when Jiang Rin and Xie Ze were about to return to Beijing, Shen Qin also caught up with Jiang Ling, and at this time, the hemp rope on Jiang Ling's body had been loosened, and he was served in the cabin with delicious food and drink, but Jiang Ke's guards had not left yet.
"What's going on? Do you really want them to send us to Yangzhou? Shen Qin asked in a low voice.
"Don't mention it, if it weren't for the people sent by my eldest brother in time, I would still be tied up until now." Jiang Ling grinned and said that he had been tied up for a day, his hands and feet were numb, and his father was really ruthless.
"Who told you to do this?" Shen Qin complained, "Ah Zhi can't be taken away either." ”
"Don't worry, it won't be long before we go back, and my eldest brother will let us go back." Jiang Ling assured his wife.
"Will it?" Shen Qin was skeptical.
"I told Ah Shi the day before yesterday that if we are separated, we will cry to my uncle until he relents. Ah Zhi will definitely do it. Jiang Ling is very confident in her daughter.
Shen Qin snorted, "How old is Ah Zhicai, can she understand what you say?" ”
"Our baby is so smart, how can he not understand?" Jiang Ling has always been a fan of her daughter's brains, "Otherwise, do you think the eldest brother will care about me being tied up by my father and going to Yangzhou?" "Jiang Ling is not afraid of his father, but his eldest brother, take Quanlu Yan as an example, even if his brother's body can bear it, he doesn't dare to play like this. His father will beat him up at most, and his eldest brother will kill him.
Shen Qin was unhappy, Jiang Ling knew that she missed her daughter, "Awen, I'm sorry." ”
"I don't blame you." Shen Qin leaned sullenly into her husband's arms, "I can also stay, but I can't bear you, if only Ah Shi was a little older." If it was a little older, she would not insist on leaving Ah Zhi behind, Shen Qin knew that his father did not approve of it in his heart, otherwise he would not let the Shen family wait outside the city. Seeing her husband's depressed face, she comforted him in turn and said, "I'm not so sad, and we are relieved to have my eldest brother and sister-in-law looking at Ah Shi." In fact, what my sister-in-law said was right, we took Ah Zhi away and didn't have time to teach her well. "Shen Qin has always been very content, whose daughter-in-law can be as comfortable as her, San Lang and Wu Lang have both passed by, don't you call her a mother.
"Wait for three years, and after three years, we will go back and abduct Ah Shi, and Ah Zhi will only be four years old at that time, and we will have another child, and we will not return to Beijing until Ah Zhi grows up." Jiang Ling said ruthlessly.
Shen Qin glanced at him, "That's not good, how can Ah Zhi marry like this, I don't want to give birth." "She doesn't want to have so many children, she will be ugly.
"Ah Zhi married? Why did Ah Chi get married? Jiang Ling thought very well, "I don't think Lin Xi is suitable for Ah Zhi, let's pick another one that is not an only son, and let them live with us after he marries Ah Zhi, and don't let Ah Zhi go to live at his mother-in-law's house." ”
"Is that okay?" Shen Qin asked in a daze, why did she think something was wrong.
"Of course you can, otherwise what will happen if Ah Zhi is bullied in the future?" Jiang Rin said confidently that he felt that unless his daughter could find a good man like himself, it would be too much of a loss to marry. But where is there a good man like him in the world, it is better to raise an obedient little son-in-law for his daughter than this.
"That's right." Shen Qin thought for a while, "Then we won't be afraid to be separated from Ah Zhi." ”
