Chapter 289: Tree Hole
According to the meaning of King Jing from Luojing, the family banquet held by Jinsui Garden is naturally full of family gifts.
The adults at the banquet more or less had different thoughts, and the sons of the Xiao family who came in a hurry had a rare intimate dinner with their fathers, and the women from Yunzhou to Luojing, both young and old, almost moistened their eyes and were full of affection.
If you have always been in the atmosphere of Shihuai and Sighing Spring, the simple matter of eating will be disturbed and you will lose your appetite. But fortunately, a group of milky children were added to the table, and all of a sudden, even the breath floating around had a sweet milky fragrance, which was just right to accompany the meal.
The children of the Xiao family were actually raised to be extremely well-behaved, and when they first saluted and greeted each other, they were also prepared to take turns to play martial arts towards Xiao Rui one by one like little adults, showing their strengths.
It's just that after Xiao Rui squatted down and lightly pinched the round face of his eldest granddaughter Xiao Xi, and mentioned her childhood troubles in Yunzhou with a smile, all the preparations that made the adults bother were instantly soaked.
Xiao Rui plays with his grandchildren, and he also has his own son who is not stingy. No matter how strictly the children were controlled, they couldn't help but follow the naivety of making a fuss, and with three or two clicks, the originally comfortable and calm Golden Spike Garden turned into a monkey mountain that was noisy everywhere.
The generations of the Xiao family seem to have blossomed first and then borne fruit!
Zhou Manyun's gaze was gently fixed on Xiao Xi's pink little face.
This Xiao Ze's eldest daughter is now protected by her father and mother, and she doesn't have much intersection with Man Yun on weekdays. She followed her grandmother, Mrs. Xu, into Luojing in advance, and her fate seemed to be completely different from her previous life. In her previous life, she lost her father, became seriously ill, and was left to be taken care of by Zhou Manyun. Although he was immediately named the county lord of Qingyang by Xiao Rui, who was compassionate and lonely, no matter how glorious he was, it was not as good as now.
Speaking of which, Xiao Hong really likes children! Not to mention Xiao Ze in his previous life. He always takes care of his nephews and nieces with all his heart and lungs, and he is the one who plays the craziest with the children in the garden now.
"Like kids?" , A faint smell of sweat came from behind, and she couldn't help but be slightly stunned when she looked at Zhou Manyun, who had just chased a fat boy running in front of her, and then, she nodded with a smile.
Can you not like it? Blow a face that can be broken. With a small pearly mouth and eyes like stars, no matter how ugly it is, every child seems to have a magic that can make people inexplicably happy.
Xiao Hong lowered his head, smiled softly, and his outstretched palm firmly clasped Man Yun's five fingers, dragging her towards a high xuan in the center of the wide courtyard.
"Don't talk about the rules at all! Do you want those little ones to do the same with your uncle......", Mrs. Xu, who was sitting and chatting with her husband like an ordinary husband and wife, heard the urgent report of the people around her, and turned her face to whisper to her son who suddenly ran over. Motherly meaning overflows.
If you hadn't asked your father to be brave, I would not have been able to find the courage to face my mother. Xiao Hong pinched his wife's fingertips in shame, and pulled Man Yun to kneel down in front of Xiao Rui and his wife in unison.
Man Yun, who vaguely guessed what her husband was going to say, immediately missed a beat, took a deep breath and stared at the tip of her nose.
"Little Liu, what are you going to do?" , Xiao Rui straightened his expression and faced his son who was about to speak. Warnings are included.
Most of the adults scattered around the compound slowed down their movements, and a few wisps of eyes stuck to the faint figure on the open sky. Xiao Ze, who was originally sitting next to his parents, focused his eyes on Xiao Hong's face even more solemnly.
"Daddy! I was playing with my nephews just now. Suddenly, Mingyun felt that it was not easy for her father to give birth to a child. I brought Man Yun to thank my father! Xiao Hong grinned, but neatly kowtowed to Man Yun again.
"What's wrong with you kid?" , Xiao Rui asked with a look of disbelief.
"My son didn't get into trouble! But please! Xiao Hong responded sincerely and respectfully: "People say that raising children is the only way to know the kindness of their parents. The son just wants to ask his father to allow me and Manyun to have the opportunity to thank our relatives more truly. ”
He actually knows the Tao! It's also Zhou Manyun who will hide something from him dumbly! Xiao Ze unconsciously straightened his waist, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the two parents in the seat.
"What do you mean......", Xiao Ruifang, who was completely confused, wanted to say something, but after quickly observing the expression of his wife next to him, he suddenly felt sadness. The old wife, who has been married for nearly 30 years, is calm. The small movements that hide his thoughts, he can see at a glance. and the eldest son Xiao Ze on the side, what did he know and what he was hiding?
"Daddy!" , I don't know when Xiao Wan, who was leaning on the side of the pillar of the Xuan room, also called in a low voice, and said angrily: "Xiaoliu asked you to allow him to give birth to a son-in-law with his younger siblings!" Don't pretend you don't know......"
"Big sister!" , Xiao Ze couldn't sit down, so he quickly got up and walked to Xiao Wan, and pulled her sleeve as if to pull her away.
"Xiao Jimin, look, your children are watching us outside......", Xiao Wan complained lightly, and gestured outside the room.
Following Xiao Wan's gaze, Xiao Zeqing clearly saw that under the shadow of the sparse tree, Xiao Xi, the eldest daughter of the sixth son, was curiously stretching her neck to look this way, holding her brother who was two years younger than her. The little girl was shocked to be discovered, and immediately stuck out her tongue, and with a little brute force, she lowered her brother's head, and the little boy, who was looking around on tiptoe, instantly flattened her mouth and wanted to cry.
"The Father is the Son! Children don't like to be a generation and watch a generation! Learn from it! Xiao Rui, who had just closed his eyes in his daughter's interjection, slowly raised his eyelids and said to Xiao Hong, who was kneeling in front of him: "Tell this king, why do you want to give birth to a child?" ”
As soon as she heard Xiao Hong speak, Mrs. Xu, who was holding her breath, slightly hooked the corners of her mouth with relief. Sure enough, the good-faced husband was as she expected, even if he guessed that something was wrong, he still decisively took the problem on himself.
Father actually knows!
Xiao Hong, who was a little surprised, clenched the other fist hanging beside him and opened it lightly, and said in a dumb voice: "Dad! Since Man Yun and I are married, it is natural that we will share the responsibility of raising our children. Now, Daddy will rule the world...... Before the Youyan incident, you also told your son to pay attention to the common ground while reserving differences with foreign clans...... If this is true of state affairs, so should family affairs......"
"That's it!" , Xiao Rui, who stood up neatly, interrupted Xiao Hong's nonsense that seemed to continue to cite arguments, lowered his head and smiled: "Isn't it just a to have a child?" You little ones are going to decide for yourselves! Let's be honest. If you Xiao Xiaoliu really have the ability to let me hug a blue-eyed grandson, this king will reward you with Jiang Jin. ”
Jiangjin in Huzhou has one of the few blue treasure veins in the Jing Dynasty.
Zhou Manyun followed the overjoyed Xiao Hong and saluted Xiao Rui who walked in front of him, his forehead touched the warm teak floor, and he was secretly suspicious. With intuition, she didn't think that Xiao Rui, who was full of decadence, was asking for mercy, but she had a sense of helplessness and haggardness.
"Manyun!". Watching her mother chase her father out of the door, Xiao Wan, who was rushing to help, rushed to Man Yun in surprise, and two lines of tears rolled down, as if the person who got the amnesty was actually her.
Xiao Hong stood up slowly, and her sister hugged her wife and cried and screamed, her eyes turned to the eldest brother who was still sitting on the side.
"Brother!" , Xiao Hong showed a bright smile to Xiao Ze, who was looking at him with some alienation, and shared his joy without any guilt, just like those yellow-haired children in the yard.
"Until now, you have been so direct with your father and the king. Aren't you afraid? Xiao Ze stood up and slowly walked to Xiao Hong, the two brothers who were generally tall stood together, clearly showing the difference in age. If you are heavy-minded, you will always begin to show twilight.
Xiao Hong shook his head with a smile, his eyebrows widened, "Brother! My father is our father. What's not to say? ”
Xiao Ze glanced fiercely at his younger brother standing in front of him. The confusion in his heart is mixed with a little sour, and he can unceremoniously call him a brother in the world. There is only one in front of me.
The interest in the Golden Harvest Garden all day was quite high, and Mrs. Xu also looked at the old husband and wife, Xiao Rui, the king of the flounder who was deeply in love, unexpectedly did not stay in the Golden Harvest Garden, and thoughtfully left a few sons to the daughters-in-law who were also in the garden, but he said that he was going back to Luojing City at night.
Luojing City said that it was a big open city gate to welcome all directions. But it's always inconvenient to return at night. Xiao Ze, the son of the world, was worried about his safety, but he couldn't speak under his father's watchful eyes.
Xiao Ze clearly understood that he had been angry with his father, who had been withholding and not whipping and throwing a cup at Mrs. Xu.
Bidding farewell to his father, who had left in anger in the moonlight, Xiao Ze turned around and glanced at Xiao Hong, who was standing behind him, and lowered his slightly sad eyes. "Your father says he's my own." , a few days ago. Xiao Ze found his mother, Mrs. Xu, as if he had peeled off the cocoon, and only an unknown sentence was enough to deprive him of the happiness of being a brother.
"Brother! Do you have something on your mind? So, just tell me? Xiao Hong touched the cheek that had just been burned by the eldest brother, and smiled and hugged Xiao Ze's shoulder, "If it's not good to tell my brother." You can also talk to someone you trust, throw your troubles at her, and you'll be all right!"
She? I'm afraid it's that Zhou Manyun again, right? There is someone around who can talk about everything, but it makes Xiao Hong maintain a good heart. Xiao Ze looked at Xiao Xiaoliu seriously again, then smiled lightly and shook his head. He is different from him, and now he has nowhere to talk about it, no one to talk about it.
King Jing and his entourage, who left the Golden Harvest Garden, did not go straight back to Luojing to find the young beauty in the mansion as the old people of Yunzhou in the garden thought with a sour spirit. Instead, he drew an arc in the western suburbs of Luojing and stopped in front of Xuanqing Temple.
Throwing the reins and falling into the saddle, His Royal Highness King Jing rushed straight into the residence of the Lord of the Audience surrounded by guards.
"False Taoist, hurry up and serve tea! This king is hot! Before anyone arrived, the voice roared first, and Xiao Rui, who broke through the empty door, was unceremoniously.
"This cup is poisonous!" , Xu Ne, who was sitting behind the bookcase, snatched a black porcelain cup from Xiao Rui's hand that he had just touched from the table.
"Hurry up! Feel free to have a cup of poison that doesn't kill people! Xiao Rui sat down panting and panting, and when he saw that the secret guard beside him had obediently retreated, he smashed his fist on the table viciously, and scolded in a low voice: "Damn it!" What's the meaning of being a father to others, it's all about incurring guilt on yourself! If you have no wife and no children for a lifetime, you are serious and debt-free! ”
"There is no father in the world who does not need to be wronged for his children!" , Xu Ne washed a white cup in a handpot, poured the warm tea that had been brewing for an unknown amount of time, and pushed it in front of King Jing.
"It's all tea foam!" , King Jing complained and complained, but the water was unceremoniously poured into his stomach, and then turned up was a stomach full of bitter water.
Xu Ne's face was calm, and his eyes were only staring at his fingertips who were boiling water and picking tea. Since His Royal Highness King Jing was bold enough to drink poisonous water again and again, he also quietly became a listener.
The so-called lies are not just nonsense. (To be continued......)
