Chapter 127: Spending the Day
In the days of closed-door study, leisurely and briskly, in the thoroughly cleaned house, the servants performed their duties, and they no longer dared to eat and gamble as before, gossip, and even bully the master with slaves and take advantage of the situation to bully others. Lin Ruhai and Jia Min plus Xiao Lin Rui, a family of three, don't mention how comfortable they are. Without Lin Hou and Mrs. Lin, Lin Ruhai gradually returned to his true nature. He was an otaku in his previous life, especially like to study recipes, design clothes, etc., after being reborn here, for the sake of the future, he had to force himself to study, go out to socialize, socialize, although it is not so unbearable, but for Lin Ruhai, being able to do what he likes as he wants is called a good life.
The leisurely days always pass quickly, and more than a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and the little one, who was a toddler at that time, can now run like a fly, and even speak extremely neatly.
On this day, the first snow after winter drifted by, and the wax flowers bloomed, Lin Ruhai suddenly became interested and discussed with Jia Min that he wanted to go to his home to cook wine and enjoy plums, and he would be elegant.
Jia Min knows her husband very well, where she sat with a hand stove, leisurely turned a page of the book, and asked casually: "You just want to eat pot in a different place, right?" ”
Lin Ruhai laughed twice, leaned over to his wife and sat down, "It's still my wife who understands me." But......" he said, "you guessed wrong. ”
Jia Min didn't raise his head, and said lightly: "It's wrong, it's wrong." ”
Lin Ruhai was annoyed, reached out and snatched the book in Jia Min's hand, and complained, "You ignore me again." That tone is the tone of a resentful woman who is snubbed by her husband.
A few girls who are waiting are really strange, it is really more than a year. This happened for too long. Lin Ruhai, who was originally studying hard, was not as motivated as Jia Min, who should have focused on the inner house. Least. Their wives kept their hands on the rolls every day, even before going to sleep. You have to read a book for a moment before you fall asleep. When it comes to the master, the time of the day should be spent in the kitchen, and then the time to make clothes, hug the son, or go to train the new parrot, and it is good to have three hours of time for reading and writing. Alas, I really don't know, who in this family is the one who is going to go to the test for fame.
Jia Min sat up helplessly. "Don't you just want to go to the barbecue?" He has been talking about it several times in the past few days, and he has also instigated his son to be a lobbyist, can she not think of it?
"yes, yes, we haven't eaten barbecue in a long time." Lin Ruhai has had a big harvest in the past year or so, first of all, peppers and tomatoes have been successfully planted experimentally, and then he brought sweet potatoes, potatoes and peanuts from Guangzhou, and added a few more dishes to his table. And Xiao Jin, who often comes to the Lin family, also learned all this, and specially invited someone to plant it on his own Zhuangzi. When it was mature, he specially made food for Emperor Qixiang, and successfully made the old emperor Longyan happy.
Lin Rui, who was playing puzzles on the side, had already pricked up his little ears to listen to his parents' conversation. At this time, he suddenly interjected, "Roasted sweet potatoes." ”
Lin Ruhai was happy at that time and arrested his son. He threw it twice, "Good son." As long as your mother agrees, we will bake it at noon. ”
Two foodies! Jia Min secretly vomited. Still. Thinking of the tempting aroma of roasted sweet potatoes and the soft and sweet taste, she was also a little greedy. Why don't you just have a meal? At that time, it was not that she didn't want to eat barbecue, but when she was roasted last time, Lin Rui's children accidentally ate too much, not only did they get a little angry, but they also had a bad appetite for several days, which frightened Jia Min, so she didn't allow her husband to eat anymore.
When she hesitated, her son's little hand grabbed her sleeve and shook it, looking at her with big black eyes, "A-Niang......"
Lin Ruhai's expression and movements were the same as his son's, and his black eyes were also wide, and he called out with some expectation: "Madame......"
Jia Min was soft-hearted by the two, burst out laughing, nodded her son's little nose, and glanced at her husband again, "Okay, then let's barbecue." ”
"Oooh." Lin Rui cheered a little, when he was not very hungry for barbecue, but ate barbecue at home, A-Niang would allow him to play with Daddy.
Jia Min agreed on three chapters of the law in advance, first his son, "It's okay to barbecue with your father, but you have to be obedient, you must not do what you don't want to do?" ”
Lin Rui nodded hurriedly.
"Then, don't eat too much."
"Uh-huh." Lin Rui spoke up obediently, "Auntie, I know." "Don't look at him is only more than two years old, but he is very precocious, he still remembers the uncomfortable thing of eating too much barbecue last time. Just like A-Niang said, how can you make the same mistake twice, everyone is a big child, and they will definitely not be as stupid as Achen.
Yes, because Princess Ning Cui often brings her son to the Lin family, Xiao Chen and Lin Rui are very familiar. The war between the two has never stopped from the moment they met. At first, Xiao Chen liked to grab Lin Rui's things, and later developed to rob each other. Two toys that are exactly the same, these two bear children just think that one of them is the best, and ignore the other. Then, they will snatch it, since there is a big war. Because the bear children are young, they can only hug each other and roll into a ball.
After more than a year of fighting, Xiao Chen is no longer the little doll who cries when he loses. The war between the two has also evolved from Lin Rui's one-sided victory to the current situation of half winning and losing. However, when Lin Rui's doll spoke relatively early, and he could speak a whole sentence fluently, Xiao Chen was still jumping out in two words and two words, which led to when he complained to adults, Lin Rui said with a small mouth, Xiao Chen's face was flushed, and only then did he pop out two words.
I have to say that the little doll also has self-esteem, after playing, Xiao Chen's language level has skyrocketed, and he soon caught up with Lin Rui. Then, the following scene appeared, "Ah Niang, look at Ah Chen, how stupid he is." ”
"Auntie, Arrow is stupid!"
"You're stupid!"
"You're stupid!"
"You're stupid!"
"You're stupid!"
The two little dolls, who are also round, wearing the same clothes, stand facing each other, their little paws full of potholes are pointing at each other, puffing out their little faces and arguing, not to mention how cute they are.
"Wow......" Because Jia Min didn't stop the two from arguing in time, the little doll sleeping on the kang cried loudly. Jia Min reluctantly flicked it and made a summary: "Both of them are quite stupid." Don't say anything about anyone. Then, pick up the little doll sleeping on the kang. Coax slowly.
The little doll was originally crying because she was woken up, and was held and coaxed by Jia Min for a while. Then he pursed his mouth again and fell asleep.
Lin Rui glanced at Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen glared back, and each of them angrily went back to their original positions to puzzle pieces.
At this time, Cui's Cai, who was eating and playing outside, came in, first glanced at the second son who was sleeping in Jia Min's arms, and then looked at the eldest son and Lin Rui who were silently pinched together, and sat down next to Jia Min who was smiling, "I haven't seen you for a few days, Chen'er and Brother Rui are still so good." ”
Jia Min glanced at it. You plucked my ears, and the two fat dolls who plucked your hair nodded indifferently, "Well, it's really good." Seeing that the little doll in his arms was already asleep, he put him beside him and carefully covered him with a thin quilt.
Cui's has only been giving birth for less than five months, and her figure is not yet round, so she looked at the slender Jia Min with envy. "Since giving birth to Brother Wei'er, my appetite has been getting better and better day by day, and now it seems like I've been pregnant for four or five months."
Every time Jia Min heard Cui's second son call her Brother Wei, she couldn't help but want to laugh, but she couldn't laugh yet. I endured a stomachache. "Aren't you still breastfeeding your brother, it's normal to be round, and wait for your brother to wean. You can slim down. ”
When Cui's family was growing a child, he had a wet nurse for the court. But the eldest son was made so weak that Cui had no sense of trust in the nurses and grandmothers who were sent. Plus. Now Emperor Qixiang is paying more and more attention to Xiao Jin, and then several princes have been crowned kings, and the battle for succession between the court and the middle is still very fierce, she is afraid that the second son will be calculated again, so she simply follows Jia Min's example and feeds the child herself. may be breastfeeding in person, Cui's appetite is also surprisingly good, and it has been mellow all the time.
Cui Shi was not very confident, "Can it?" ”
"When the time comes, you can exercise more." Jia Min's current body belongs to the kind that is not fat no matter how much she eats, even if she gives birth to a child, she is still as slender as a willow. Therefore, she didn't have the mentality of wanting to lose weight.
Cui Shi thought, how can it be a year before his son is weaned, will it always be so mellow? The saint had another thought, and wanted to set up another side concubine for Xiao Jin. And in the past two years, he has not given his son less women. It's just that those women came from humble backgrounds, and when they entered the palace, they could only be concubines at most. And Xiao Jin's mind is more on the front court, and Emperor Qixiang's reuse makes him have little time to think about what children and daughters are. Therefore, although there are many women who have entered the house, for more than a year, only the Cui family has given birth to another son, and the rest have not moved. But the woman who is going to enter the mansion this time is different from those concubines, who secretly side as soon as they enter the mansion, and they don't provoke Xiao Jin's eyes like Zhen's, can he still snub her like Zhen's?
It took Jia Min a while to react, why should Cui Shi worry about his figure. "Is it that the saint is going to give Prince Ning a side concubine again? Do you know whose house it is? ”
Cui Shi said: "It is the daughter of Wu Yingming, the servant of the ministry." ”
Jia Min was stunned, "No, didn't Wu Shilang's daughter get married a few years ago?" If I'm not mistaken, I married the eldest son of the military department. ”
"It's Wu Shilang's concubine, her mother died early, and she has been raised by Wu Shilang's mother." It was precisely because the new concubine who was about to enter the door was a concubine that the Cui family didn't pay much attention to it, and the sense of urgency was not very strong. Moreover, she has two sons, and her relationship with her husband is good, and the new concubine entering the house will not pose much threat to her status. It's just that thinking like this in her heart, she can't help but feel sour, and I heard that this Miss Wu family, who grew up in Jiangnan with her grandmother since she was a child, has learned well and looks good, presumably the prince will be happy for a while.
Jia Min let out an "oh" and comforted Cui's again, "Prince Ning is a person who misses the old love, you and he have raised two lively and healthy sons, even if the new concubine enters the mansion, it will not be able to pass you." ”
Cui Shi smiled: "Well, I know everything. ”
"By the way, that Zhen family in your house is honest now?" When it comes to this Concubine Zhen, Jia Min really doesn't know what to say about her. Well, she has always been famous for this Zhen side for a long time, but she didn't have a chance to see her. can be seen through the words that I heard, coupled with the words that Cui Shi occasionally revealed, it can be seen that this girl has a very high heart and sufficient means, but it is a pity that she met Xiao Jin, a husband who looks at her unpleasantly, and she is not good in Xiao Jin's eyes.
When Zhen entered the mansion, he also wanted to take Xiao Jin's heart over, but he was hit on the first day. She was silent for a while. Seeing that Cui Shi did not take the opportunity to clean her up, he was more kind. Xiao Jin was busy during that time and rarely went back to the back house. When they met, it wasn't the kind of indifferent husband she thought, so she moved her mind again.
That day, Xiao Jin was praised by his father, and he went home flutteringly, wanting to share it with his wife, so he made an appointment to meet his wife in the garden. Cui Shi saw that her husband was interested, of course she had to dress up. Xiao Jin went to the garden first, and ran into Zhen by chance. Zhen is pisting on the piano with self-pity. When I saw Xiao Jin, I really shed tears before I said anything, and I was very pitiful, as if I had suffered a lot of grievances. She was telling Xiao Jin about her innocent grievances, and when she was pitiful, Cui's arrived.
As soon as he entered the pavilion and saw Zhen's, Cui's face was not good, and Xiao Jin sent Zhen back with a cold face. After coaxing his wife overnight, the next day she closed Zhen's tight seal, which was enough for her to copy the female commandments hundreds of times, and only released her after three months. And. During this period, the Zhen family sent people to send things to Xiao Jin, but they were all turned away by him. Xiao Jin's reason is. Zhen's women's morality is at a loss, provoking his relationship with the concubine.
This thing. At that time, many families in the capital knew about it, and Jia Min naturally knew it. But. She knows a little more than these people. Xiao Jin will punish Zhen heavily, and he will clearly slap the Zhen family in the face, because Zhen used money to buy the girls and maids in the house, and even the little eunuchs around Xiao Jin have bought several. It was precisely because of this that she could know that Xiao Jin asked Cui Shi to go to the garden and directed and acted by herself. At that time, Cui's was already pregnant for three months, Xiao Jinruo was really moved by her, there was a gesture of pity and cherishing jade, and was bumped into by Cui's on the spot, whether the doll in Cui's belly can be safe, it's really two words.
After that incident, Zhen's life in the palace was very sad, and the Zhen family still hadn't given up on this girl, and asked people everywhere to talk about it. Because the Jia family and the Zhen family are old relatives, and they know that Lin Ruhai and his wife have a very good relationship with King Ning, they begged Jia's mother. Mother Jia knew that this kind of affairs of the prince's inner house must not be taken care of, so she responded vaguely, and did not mention it to Jia Min afterwards. But Jia's mother doesn't say it, someone will always tell Jia Min that this is the second lady Wang. The Zhen family is also related to the Wang family, and after begging Jia's mother, they naturally sent someone to greet the Wang family. Mrs. Wang thought about it again, and when Jia Min returned to her parents' house, she gave Jia Min the words thoroughly, and took the words with her, when Lin Ruhai went to Jiangnan, the Zhen family gave a lot of convenience, can you not return this favor.
Jia Min is really angry and funny, what this second sister-in-law is thinking, she really doesn't know. Isn't it that the officialdom in Jiangnan was turbulent at that time, and many people were dismissed and their homes were raided, which made many granges and shops in Jiangnan betrayed. Jia Min has a lot of money in his hand, and he went to Jiangnan in person, so he really bought a lot, the fields are fertile, the location of the shop is good, and the shopkeeper and guy who collected a lot of the original shop are connected with the shops in Beijing, and the money Jia Min spent this year not only returned to the capital, but even had a surplus.
The Jia family here, even if they bought the land and shops, they were all returned to the officials, and Mrs. Wang also wanted to make some private property, but she was too late to start, and she didn't get any good things, not to mention, and was disciplined by Jia's mother and husband. She has always suspected that it was Jia Min's complaint, and she has secretly hated it for a long time.
This time about the Zhen family, Mrs. Wang knew that she shouldn't be involved in the prince's inner house, but she still told Jia Min about it, but she didn't have any good intentions.
Jia Min knows in her heart, but the love she owes to the Zhen family is also true, does she have to pay it back now? When the Zhen family raids the house in the future, she will go to the relief, isn't it the same to repay the favor.
Jia Min didn't move here, but Mrs. Wang revealed her words to the Zhen family, and the second lady of the third room of the Zhen family came to the door the day before yesterday to ask for a meeting, bringing a lot of things, only saying that since Brother Rui was born, they didn't come to see it, and they were uneasy. When they met, they only talked about the children, or the friendship between the two families, and didn't say a word about the Zhen family. When the others left, Jia Min said to Lin Ruhai: "It's all the second sister-in-law who found it for me." "However, if the Zhen family wants them to return the favor like this, it's okay.
Cui's naturally knew that the Zhen family had found Jia Min, and smiled slightly when he heard this: "It's still like that, what, do you want to intercede with her?" ”
Jia Min smiled: "The saint and the mother don't care, I follow the heart of which family." ”
"I know that the Zhen family has come to your house." Cui Shi Dao.
Jia Min nodded: "Yes, I came here, and I prepared a heavy gift." ”
Cui Shi smiled: "I have accepted the courtesy, you still plan to do nothing?" It's so inauthentic. ”
Jia Min smiled, and she said meaningfully: "Then I will beg you once, and take care of the Zhen family in the future." ”
Cui's was slightly stunned, why did Jia Min really ask for it? Thinking about it again, the side concubine who is about to enter the mansion. Hehe, although they are all side concubines, and they are all given by saints, the Zhen family entered the mansion early, and the status is a little earlier than the Wu family. "Okay, since you have asked, I will take care of her."
It's good to talk to smart people, Jia Min and Cui Shi looked at each other and smiled. Then the sleeves of the two were pulled by their sons, "Mother, Achen is disobedient and steals candy to eat!" ”
Xiao Chen subconsciously wiped his mouth, and also complained: "It's obvious that he stole it." ”
Jia Min hurriedly got up and looked at the small sugar box on the table, there were obviously more than a dozen halva pieces before, but now there is no one.
Because the New Year is approaching, a lot of candy has been made at home, Xiao Chen and Lin Rui like it very much, Jia Min was afraid that the two of them would have a toothache after eating too much, so he told the two little dolls in advance, three for each person, and they were not allowed to eat more.
Both of them nodded and agreed at the time, but after that, they couldn't resist the temptation of candy, and teamed up to steal candy for the first time.
As a result, it was okay at first, you and I had a piece, and in the end, when there was only one piece left, Xiao Chen quickly stuffed it into his mouth, Lin Rui saw that Xiao Chen ate it, but he didn't, so he went to sue directly. Anyway, he finished eating, and Xiao Chen still had it in his mouth.
Jia Min made a face, "Didn't we say that we can only eat three pieces per person?" You've all promised me, haven't you? ”
Lin Rui nodded in fear, Xiao Chen looked back at his mother, and nodded as well. Boom, my aunt is so scary when she is serious, even more scary than when my mother is angry.
"Then why steal it? A manly man should keep his promise. That is, what I promised, what I have said must be done, so that it can be done. I've told you that before, right? ”
The two little dolls didn't quite understand the meaning of Jia Min's words, but it didn't prevent them from seeing Jia Min's face. From her serious expression, it was completely clear that she had done something wrong. Because, the two of them, who have always been very nonsense, stood up so obediently for the first time and did not fight.
"If you are wrong, you will be punished, so that you can remember that you will not make the same mistake next time." Jia Min feels that no matter whether the child understands it or not, he can't let go of every educational opportunity.
Cui's was a little unbearable, but for more than a year, Xiao Chen had a lot of time playing with Lin Rui, and when she was pregnant, she didn't have so much energy to take care of her son, so she often sent him to Lin's house and asked him to play with Lin Rui. After a long time, she found that Xiao Chen was much smarter than her nephew and her husband's nephew, who was the same age.
For example, he can already eat with a small spoon on his own, and he can talk much more smoothly than those dolls. One day, she noticed that her son was babbling about what he was talking about while laying out the puzzles. Listen carefully, it is actually the content of the kindergarten Qionglin. She was amazed, grabbed her son and asked carefully, only to know that Jia Min would read a paragraph to them every time before napping. After a long time, they have an impression, and they will ask and answer them in the way of games, so that they will naturally remember. Yesterday, he didn't answer a sentence, and then the last piece of sesame crisp was eaten by Lin Rui, and he will keep talking about it today.
Cui Shi realized that Jia Min's way of teaching children was very different from her and many others, but the effect was very good. Today, although she doesn't think there is anything wrong with her son stealing candy, besides, the two little dolls are still so young, Jia Min said it, can they remember it? Although he was suspicious, he didn't say anything to stop Jia Min from educating the two little dolls.
"Well, from today until the New Year, you can't eat sugar." Jia Min looked sideways at Cui's, "I don't eat what others give." ”
Cui Shi knew her purpose for looking at herself, thought about it, and nodded, "I know." ”
The two little dolls didn't know the meaning of being punished, and when Lin Ruhai asked the girl to bring in the sesame crisp that had just been made, the two of them rushed to the same place, but Jia Min slapped off all the little paws. The two fat dolls looked at Jia Min, put the piece of sesame crisp in their mouths, and then said with a smile: "I said, you can't eat candy anymore, you can only watch me eat it, this is the punishment." ”
Boom...... Wow wow wow...... A-Niang (aunt) bullies. (To be continued......)
