Chapter 009: Married for half a child at the age of four
"Feng Ran!" Sui Yu said sharply, and his long fingers shook Xiaobao's small hand behind his back, "A few years ago, because of Xiqi's wanton aggression on the border, Beili did not recruit troops. But in my barracks, I had never heard of soldiers from the east. ”
Xiaobao was so frightened that he shivered again. Although he was young, he had been wandering outside for a long time, and he had seen many people of all kinds. There are almost no people who treat him like Feng Ran, and it is rare to be so irritable like the one in front of him.
Xiaobao stretched out his other little hand, tentatively touched his heart, and said softly: "Daddy, don't be angry, don't be angry!" ”
Feng Ran gasped, how could it be self-defeating? didn't stimulate Sui Yu's pity, and blew him up. She had to laugh wryly, feeling that she had stepped on the horse's tail again this time.
"Cough~" Shui Sheng fist against his chin, coughing crisply, "Master Hou......"
"Speak!" Sui Yu said casually, but chose to turn a blind eye to Xiaobao's behavior.
"There are soldiers from the east in our Mozhou Iron Cavalry, but there are relatively few of them, and General Guo knows this best."
"Yes, yes? How did I not know? ”
Sui Yu's face turned red all of a sudden, and he felt that Jin Sheng and Shui Sheng had completely "surrendered to the enemy", and one by one they were either doing things for Feng Ran or interceding for Feng Ran.
"Yes, yes." Jin Sheng hurriedly echoed and said, "Master Hou was in charge of everything at that time, and all he was thinking about was how to repel Xiqi Xiao'er, how could he have the time to remember the origin of each soldier below!" ”
"Xiaobao, this kid has a fate with Lord Hou and Mrs., so leave him in the Hou Mansion. Such a skinny one can't eat much food. Besides, we don't have any children in the house, so it's really deserted. With such a little guy, maybe you can add a lot of laughter in the future. ”
Feng Ran's admired five-body throw, or the aquatic can touch Sui Yu's temper. She decided to find an opportunity to seek advice from Shui Sheng in private, and to conquer the Sui Emperor, she had to use all available resources, including letting her closest close friend Chang Sui "betray" him.
Before Shui Sheng's words fell, Xiaobao had already knelt in front of Sui Yu upright, kowtowing and saying, "Thank you Daddy for taking me in, Xiaobao must be a good child who is sensible." ”
Xiaobao called "Daddy" and kowtowed, this righteous son Sui Yu didn't admit it. He endured the jumping temples and said, "You guys go out first." ”
"Okay!" Jin Sheng hooked Xiaobao with one arm, and said with a smile to Fengran: "Madam, it's not early, let's let Hou Ye rest first?" ”
"Thank you, Master Hou." She took Xiaobao's hand and prepared to exit the main room. But seeing Xiaobao looking at her, she asked confusedly, "Mother, why don't you sleep in the same room with your father?" ”
Feng Ran quickly covered Xiaobao's mouth and ran out of the room with a puff of smoke. It was not easy to smooth out Sui Yu's hair, and then say something he didn't like to hear, and he had to be anxious again, in case he changed his mind again, everyone was busy all night in vain.
However, he said that early in the morning of the next day, with the sound of the generals in the courtyard, Feng Ran had brought Xiaobao to Sui Yu to ask for peace.
Sui Yu didn't have any opinion on leaving Xiaobao in his heart, he just wanted to use this excuse to bring Feng Ran back to the capital. However, his two were often "defective", which caused him to have to acquiesce.
Even if he is a nobody, as long as he dies on the battlefield for the country, his heirs should not be in the situation of Xiaobao.
"Woke up early today?" Sui Yu glanced at them with his spare eyes, his wheelchair still parked in front of the window, and he was always watching his soldiers.
Years of military career have made Sui Yu have good habits of work and rest. Wake up at the end of the day, and sleep at the end of the day. Always have military uniforms and weapons by your pillow, and you can wake up immediately at the slightest hint of wind and grass. Even if my leg is crippled now, some habits still can't be changed.
Feng Ran hadn't been to Sui Yu's side for a few days, but now it's different, Xiaobao was brought back to the Marquis of Jiansheng's mansion by her. If this little guy doesn't understand the rules and provokes Sui Yu to look down on him, she will be to blame.
"Say hello to Master Hou." Xiaobao saluted Sui Yu in a regular manner, and it could be seen that Feng Ran had taught him now. But...... How did his name change?
Feng Ran followed him to Sui Yufu blessing, Yi smiled and said: "Master Hou, the concubine has given Xiaobao a new name, called 'Fengqi', and the nickname is 'Daqi', thinking that he can make him grow taller and fatter, and when he grows up, he will have a chance." ”
Hearing this, Sui Yu retracted his gaze, looked sideways at Feng Ran, and laughed: "Phoenix weapon? The children in my Jiansheng Marquis's Mansion actually follow your surname? Joke! ”
"Didn't you let him call you Daddy?" Feng Ran was annoyed, why was Sui Yu so difficult to serve, why was he not satisfied?
"Then he also has to be surnamed 'Sui', called 'Sui Qi', so it's decided." Sui Yu is undeniably authentic.
Xiaobao, who has a new name, picks up the cuffs and secretly wipes away his tears. With the approval of the family in this mansion, he finally felt at home.
"Daqi, how old are you?"
"I don't know."
Without Feng Ran explaining on the side, Sui Yu already understood that this child had been left unattended for too long. He swallowed his throat and said, "Just when you're four years old, I'll go outside with my wife to buy some clothes and come back." ”
"You don't have to buy it."
Sui Qi was very afraid of adding trouble to Feng Ran and Sui Yu, and the soul that had been indifferent for too long, once he got a little love, his heart would feel very heavy, because he was afraid that it would be a flash in the pan.
"The concubine will arrange it." Feng Ran's wrist hung down on Sui Qi's shoulder bone, and he smiled lightly, "Master Hou, you are really a good person." She said this with a false mind, although there was an element of sycophancy.
Sui Yu rubbed his eyebrows and said fiercely: "Go out, don't keep dangling in front of me if it's okay, otherwise I always want to send you two back to the capital." In fact, the two of you will set off for home today, and you will be able to arrive in the capital before 39 days. ”
"Dom?" Sui Qi asked curiously, it was a place he hadn't heard of.
Feng Ran glanced at Sui Yu, and said cheekily: "The concubine and the marquis have been married for half a year, and the sons are already four years old. Returning to the capital will only sweep the Cao family and the Feng family out of the house. I beg Master Hou to do well, give our mother a way to live, no matter how big it is, it is also the child of your Sui family! ”
"Feng ...... Dye ...... "Sui Yu's fire, which was finally suppressed last night, was arched by Feng Ran again.
Feng Ran saw that something was wrong, so he picked up the Sui weapon and ran out. When she had already run out of the room, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't told Sui Yu about the lack of carbon fire supply in the West Main House. After patronizing for a while, I forgot about the business.
Feng Ran did not have much money at her disposal, and the Empress Dowager Cao didn't bring much dowry to the little cannon fodder before, and she often gave money to her subordinates recently. Therefore, when buying clothes for Sui Qi, he was not as generous as before. I simply bought a few winter clothes, thinking that I would slowly add them when I received them next month.
Feng Ran knew that the most important thing at the moment was to replenish the body of the Sui device, so he quietly added spiritual spring water to his three meals a day. Sui Qi was placed in the small warm pavilion of the west main house by Feng Ran, the place was a little smaller, but it was warmer than the inner bedroom. The days are getting colder and colder, and Feng Ran is worried that his thin little body will be infected with the wind and cold again.
After several days of busyness, the clothing, food, and housing of Sui Qi were finally taken care of. Feng Ran breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that it was really an incredible thing for her to raise a four-year-old son at the age of seventeen.
It didn't take much work, and the whole family became familiar with Sui Qi. All day long, they are either hugged by the housekeepers in the backyard to play, or they are surrounded by the maids in the middle of the room, which is rare.
Before you know it, Jinxian ushered in the first snowfall of winter.
A thin layer of white snow fell in the courtyard in front of Baxiazhou, and Feng Ran put on a half-worn coat, and ran to the courtyard to enjoy the snow. Yun'er followed out closely, stuffed a hot small hand stove into Feng Ran's arms, and said thoughtfully: "Madame beware of catching a cold." ”
"I'm fine, I'm fine!" Feng Ran laughed, and helped Yun'er tighten her belt, "It's you, your little face is red from the cold." By the way, what about the kid? ”
"I went to the backyard kitchen with Sister Rui just now, and I haven't come back yet, so I was arrested by those guys in the backyard again." Yun'er replied, "Since the big weapon entered the mansion, it is really who likes it." ”
The master and servant walked along the verandah. Feng Ran thinks that this courtyard is very beautiful, but the disadvantage is the lack of some flowers and plants. She thought about going back to the space and asking Lingquan to see which flowers and plants were suitable for growing in winter, and then she would take them back and plant them in a hurry.
As soon as he walked halfway through the courtyard, Sui Qi had already walked back from the backyard with Rui'er. As soon as he saw Feng Ran, he rushed over like a happy person, and said with a smile: "Mother, mother." ”
In fact, for this title, Feng Ran is not very comfortable with it until now. But every time I was called by Sui Qi, I was inexplicably happy in my heart. She opened her arms and held him in her arms, bent down and asked, "Where are you going to play again?" ”
"Uncle Guo took me to Perak Hall." Sui Qi said happily, and took out a few pieces of candy from his cuffs and gave them to Feng Ran, "This is what Uncle Guo gave me, mother, you can eat it, it's sweet." ”
Feng Ran still wants to laugh when he hears those titles, and several plaques have been hung up one after another, in addition to the Baxiazhou, Iron Horse Garden and Glacier Pavilion in the main courtyard, there are also Thunderbolt Hall, Shachangzhuang, Jinjiawu, and Paoze Building in the front and back yards......
Guo Lin's place of residence is in the Seventh Entrance Courtyard, and his house is called "Thunderbolt Hall". is worthy of the soldiers brought out by Sui Yu, and the taste is really the same. As for the new housekeeper, Mr. Sun, he lived in the "Jinjiawu" of the first courtyard, and he must have to follow the local customs.
As soon as he moved into the new mansion, it ushered in winter, and Sui Yu didn't go outdoors much to breathe.
The main room was spacious enough, and Shui Sheng and Jin Sheng often supported him and walked back and forth from the inner room to the bright room. A very simple action, where a normal person can walk in the blink of an eye, Sui Yu has to take several quarters of an hour, or even longer.
At the end of each walk, he was soaking wet with his underwear. At this moment, Sui Yu has already accepted his fate, and the most painful days have passed.
Jin Sheng was attracted by the laughter outside the window, and after seeing it clearly, he turned his head and told the master: "Master Hou, it's the lady who is playing in the courtyard with a big vessel, and the snowflakes outside are getting bigger and bigger, which is very beautiful." ”
Sui Yu didn't respond, and Shui Sheng sped up the speed of helping Sui Yu change clothes. Oh, he has pushed the wheelchair to send the master to the window. Looking out through the window, I saw Sui Qi chasing Feng Ran all over the courtyard, throwing her down in the snowdrift, and kept calling: "Mother, you wait for me......"
Sui Yu's heart seemed to be stung by something, he tried his best to restrain his thoughts, and said with a cold face: "What is there to see, she is obviously only seventeen years old, and she is embarrassed to let a four-year-old child call her mother?" ”
