With the reward given by Zhao Jing, the Marquis of Luyang, the goddess left with her two apprentices with a thousand thanks.

As soon as the goddess left, the people in the mansion who had secretly watched this exorcism ceremony in the east courtyard also dispersed one after another, each going to busy with their own things.

Zhao Yu's brother Zhao Yin also went back to his house, leaving only Zhao Jing, the Marquis of Luyang, and Zhou, Jingnu and the other two maids remained in Zhao Yu's house.

When the Zhou family led Jingnu to post those few orders in the house, which was the exorcism order she had obtained from the goddess at a great cost, Zhao Jing, the Marquis of Luyang, summoned his youngest son Zhao Yu to him, and asked in a tone full of fatherly majesty as always: "Yu'er, how do you feel?" ”

At this moment, Zhao Yuzheng wondered when this father would come back, and said vaguely: "It's okay, it's just a little sleepy." ”

"Hmm."

The Marquis of Luyang stroked his beard and nodded slightly, and Zhao Yu didn't know if he understood his underlying meaning: this exorcism ceremony was purely a farce.

In view of the fact that there was no clue on his father's face, Zhao Yu couldn't help but ask: "Father, mother, do you really believe what the goddess said, to be honest, the child doesn't feel any different from before." ”

Hearing this, the Marquis of Luyang glanced at Zhao Yu a few times and frowned slightly.

At this time, Zhou came over, rubbed Zhao Yu's head and asked affectionately, "What's the matter, Yu'er?" It sounds like you're not happy with the goddess. ”

Zhao Yu thought for a while and said, "It's just a feeling...... I feel like I've been cheated, and I've been cheated out of so much money from our family for no reason......"

Hearing this, the Luyang townsman was slightly stunned, his slightly frowning brows gradually stretched, and vaguely, as if he could still see this father smiling slightly.

But it was only for a moment, and after a moment, the Marquis of Luyang said with a serious face: "This kind of thing, you don't need to worry about it......

Before he finished speaking, he was gently pushed by Zhou, who reproached dissatisfiedly: "His father, can't you talk well?" Keep a straight face all day long, no wonder the two children don't want to be close to you......"

After that, she ignored her husband who was full of embarrassment, rubbed Zhao Yu's hair and said gently: "Yu'er, as long as you two brothers can do well every day, what does it matter if you spend some money at home?" …… You say that the goddess is swindling and cheating, but in fact, your father and mother don't believe it, will your mother still recognize my good man? …… These are just for the people in the house to see, lest they talk behind their backs and spread some rumors, can you understand this? ”

"It turned out to be to stop the rumors."

Zhao Yu suddenly realized, he said that the parents in front of him were so easy to deceive, so easy to be deceived by the goddess, it turned out that the couple had this idea.

At this time, the Marquis of Luyang coughed, put on a posture of mentioning his son's life, and said: "Spending some money is nothing, the key is that after this incident, I hope that my father can learn a lesson." Look at your brother, since he was six years old, he got up every day and studied with Mr. Gongsun, and what are you doing every day? Go up to the tree to catch birds, go down to the river to fish, and do nothing all day long......"

As he spoke, his tone became more and more severe, and the momentum was so intimidating that Zhao Yu lowered his head unconsciously, and he didn't dare to breathe.

Although he didn't know anything about the stubborn deeds that the Luyang Township Marquis said.

On the side, Zhou saw that her son was being disciplined by his father and did not dare to raise his head, so she persuaded distressedly: "Husband, Yu'er is still young and ignorant......

"He's ten years old, still young?"

Zhao Jing glared at Zhou, and said sternly: "When I was ten years old, I already shouldered the livelihood of the entire mansion, and Bohu is also ten years old this year, and he can already read the Analects and the Book of Songs, you can look at you again!" ”

The Bohu in his mouth is the expression of Zhao Yu's brother Zhao Yin.

"It's all what your mother is used to for you!" Speaking of anger, the Marquis of Luyang glared at Zhou again, and scolded in a low voice: "A loving mother is a loser!" ”

Hearing this, Zhou's face couldn't hold back, his face suddenly sank, and he glared at her husband fiercely.

Not to mention, the Luyang townsman, who was still staring at him just now, was glared at by his wife at this moment, and his momentum couldn't help but stagnate.

"In short, you should reflect on yourself!"

Dropping a sentence, the Luyang townsman brushed his sleeves away.

Gritting his teeth and looking at the back of his husband brushing his sleeves away, Zhou took a deep breath, and said to Zhao Yu with a pleasant attitude again: "Yu'er, don't care about your father's reprimand, he also has high hopes for you, that's why he is so strict with you...... And you don't talk about you for your mother on weekdays, you do have a little ...... It's so stubborn, but I believe that after this lesson, my will slowly improve, right? ”

Listening to Zhou's motherly tone of coaxing children, what else could Zhao Yu say.

But to be honest, although he was reprimanded by the Marquis of Luyang Township for no reason, considering that he had never experienced reprimands from his close relatives in his previous life, this feeling was actually not bad.

After all, as the old saying goes, when an elder reprimands you, it means that there is still expectation of you, otherwise, that is the worst.

He nodded and said, "Mother, I know that my father reprimanded me for my own good. ”

"Huh?"

Zhou's face showed a look of surprise, and he immediately hugged Zhao Yu in his arms affectionately, rubbing Zhao Yu's cheek with his face.

"Good li, good li'er for your mother, you have really become sensible. …… Okay, it's not too early, you and Jingnu take a break, and after half an hour, go to the north house to have dinner together. ”

After telling his son, Zhou left with the two maids.

Half an hour later, Zhao Yu took Jing Nu to the north house in the house to eat, after all, it was a regular meal at night, and the whole family would get together to eat, the only difference from the past was that since yesterday, Jing Nu sat next to Zhou and had dinner with Zhao Yu's family.

When the Luyang townsman saw it yesterday, he didn't say anything, obviously he already knew his wife's arrangement.

It is worth mentioning that when Zhao Yu saw his father that night, he was surprised to find that there were several red roads around his father's neck, and he asked curiously: "Dad, what's wrong with your neck?" ”

Hearing this, Jing Nu was surprised to find that the corners of Zhou's mouth sitting next to her rose inexplicably, but the Luyang townsman in front of Zhao Yu seemed to be a little annoyed and angry, and reprimanded with a straight face: "Don't you understand the truth of eating without words?" Eat, don't talk! ”

has such a strict father, even if the whole family gets together to eat, there is rarely any communication, and Zhao Yu's brother Zhao Yin eats even faster, picks up a few mouthfuls of food, and says goodbye to his parents under the pretext of going back to the house to read.

Looking at the back of his brother who fled and seemed to leave, Zhao Yu secretly bet in his heart that this brother ate so fast, it was definitely not to go back to the house to read as soon as possible.

Who let his brother Zhao Yin leave, and gave his younger brother Zhao Yu a look of "I'll go first, you are so self-conscious".

After dinner, the Marquis of Luyang went to his study, but Zhou left Zhao Yu to chat with Jingnu for a while, and only around the time did he send Zhao Yu and Jingnu back to the house to rest.

It is worth mentioning that before Zhao Yu and Jingnu were about to say goodbye to Zhou and go back to the house to sleep, Zhou pulled Jingnu aside and whispered a few words to Jingnu, only to make Jingnu's face blush.

Although Zhao Yu didn't deliberately eavesdrop, he still vaguely heard a few words such as "you are still young", "don't let that kid come nonsense", "sooner or later", something or something.

Zhao Yu is not stupid, he guessed the general idea after thinking about it, and while he was speechless, he secretly thought in his heart: It's better to pretend not to hear it.

In ancient times, there weren't too many attractive things, and ordinary people should have fallen asleep around the end of the day, but when they passed by his brother Zhao Yin's house, Zhao Yu saw that there were still candles lit in the house, and he didn't know if Zhao Yin was still reading with the lamp at the moment.

Most likely, this eldest prince of the mansion has really worked hard in learning and has set a good example for his younger brother.

But it's a pity that neither Zhao Yu before nor Zhao Yu at this time regards this hard-working brother as a role model at all.

No, after glancing at the candlelight printed on the window, Zhao Yu returned to his room unconsciously and prepared to sleep.

Two children about ten years old sleeping together, in fact, strictly speaking, there is nothing unspeakable, but Zhao Yu and Jingnu still feel a little embarrassed and shy.

Zhao Yu is because he is psychologically older, while Jingnu is purely because of precociousness - in this era, it is not uncommon for ordinary daughters to marry at this age.

"Young master, you ...... You ...... first"

Pointing to the bed, Jing Nu blushed and said, and at the end of the day, she also explained a little reason why she slept on the outside of the bed: it was convenient for Zhao Yu to call her at night, such as blowing out the lamp, closing the window or something.

Zhao Yu didn't think much about it, took off his coat and lay down on the bed.

After a while, the quiet girl blew out the candles, and then sparsely took off her coat and climbed onto the bed.

The two of them, each wrapped in a futon.

Probably because of embarrassment, neither of them spoke.

But to be honest, Zhao Yu doesn't think that the two little guys can sleep together can have anything charming, he cares more about his future than he cares about this, who let that ghostly goddess not really have the ability to expel him, the 'evil spirit' back to the original world.

And does this mean that he can only continue to replace the original owner of this body?

In all fairness, there is nothing wrong with accepting all this, you see, there is the gentle and doting mother Zhou, there is the father Zhao Jing, who is strict but not lacking in affection, Zhao Yin, the marquis of Luyang Township, who is strict but not lacking in affection, and the brother Zhao Yin, who still gives his younger brother a look despite the lack of communication on weekdays, and the concubine Jingnu who is lying next to the bed at the moment, like a child daughter-in-law.

Compared with the loneliness and lack of clothes in the previous life, what is there to be dissatisfied with?

With his hands on his pillow, Zhao Yu really couldn't think of any dissatisfaction.

There are only a few worries in my heart, maybe I am just entangled in the fact that I am an outsider after all, and I am worried that I will not be able to integrate into this family.
