Liu He's return to Jicheng is two months in a blink of an eye, and it is already June, and the weather is getting hotter.

That afternoon, Liu He's son and daughter woke up from a nap and were slipped to the back garden by Cai Yan and Mi Zhen.

Liu He's eldest son Liu Xiang is already more than four years old, and the eldest daughter Liu Yao is also two years old.

For most of the year in Yecheng, although Liu He was busy with political affairs and military affairs, he worked hard in Da Qiao's fields at night, so Da Qiao was very competitive and conceived a third child for Liu He.

If it weren't for Liu He's intention to use a safe period for contraception, Cai Yan and Mi Zhen would probably be pregnant with their second child now. The reason why Liu He controls the rhythm of the child's voice is also due to several considerations.

First, he was out of consideration for the health and safety of Cai Yan and Mi Zhen and others. Every time a woman gets pregnant and gives birth, she has to face a test, especially in this era of backward medical and health care, even if Hua Tuo, a gynecological miracle doctor, takes care of it, but it cannot completely avoid dystocia.

Since there is no shortage of women around Liu He, he can have sex with his wife during the safe period to prevent contraception, which can not only control the number of times he has sex with several family members, but also open the time for Cai Yan and Mi Zhen and others to conceive their second child, so that they can be physically and psychologically prepared to raise their second child.

After Liu He returned to Jicheng this time, because Da Qiao was pregnant. So more often than not, he stayed with Cai Yan and Mi Zhen, and when he had sex with these two ladies, he deliberately did not avoid Cai Yan's ovulation period, but only had sex with Mi Zhen during the safe period. Through this method, after Da Qiao's child is born, Cai Yan will also be pregnant with a second child, and Mi Zhen's second child can also be on the "agenda".

However, now Liu He is facing a headache for him, that is, when to marry Zhen Mi, Xiao Qiao and Lu Niangrong. Liu He is not an ascetic, but he is also not an unscrupulous "faint king" who indulges in excessive desires. On the issue of treating women. His attitude is to try to be as sincere as possible, but he will not do those shocking things that are contrary to the three outlines and five constants of this era. In the future, Liu He's harem may still enter the harem, but the total number will definitely not be exaggerated, and perhaps Liu He will not marry more than ten women in his life. Compared to the number of three thousand beauties in the emperor's harem. The number of harems like Liu He is definitely rare.

The reason why Liu He delayed taking Zhen Mi, Xiao Qiao and Lu Niangrong into the room. Mainly considering their young age. If you have a husband and wife at an early age, it may have a bad impact on their development and future fertility. In addition, since last year, Liu He really didn't have much energy and mood to marry a wife again. Disaster fighting, epidemic prevention, and disaster relief alone made Liu He tired enough.

Second, the speed and order of the birth of Liu Hekongzhì's children are also out of consideration for the balance within the family. If some of the women keep giving birth and some of them don't get pregnant, some people will inevitably feel worried or resentful. Just like now, if Da Qiao is always not pregnant, and Cai Yan and Mi Zhen have a second child, it will be a torment for Da Qiao every day.

Although Liu He knew that the harem battle like the thrilling in later film and television works would not happen in his own home, Liu He knew that the more the inheritance struggle of the emperor's family, the more cruel it became. Although Liu He is not yet an emperor, he is already a great general, although Liu Yu's power seems to be greater than him, but there is no distinction between their father and son, so as Liu He's back house, there must be many unavoidable undercurrents.

In his previous life, Liu He, as a candidate teacher who had just graduated from a normal college, knew better than anyone that when educating children, the smaller the number of students a teacher faced, the better the education that each student could receive. This principle applies equally to parents and children, if Liu He became a stallion, married many women, and then gave birth to dozens or hundreds of children, then he simply did not have the time and energy to teach these children, and the result was that these children would be mixed, and most of them could only become rice worms that consumed national and social resources.

Liu He took the "boutique route" in terms of the size of the harem and the number of children, and in the general terminology of later generations, it was to achieve eugenics.

When Liu Xiang and Liu Yao came to the back garden, Liu He had already arrived first. The afternoon of the fourth day of every week is Liu He's prescribed parent-child activity day, no matter how busy Liu He is, as long as he is still in Jicheng, then he will definitely spend it with the children.

In order to increase the fun of the game, a few days ago, Liu He specially had a boat of clean and smooth white sand transported from the water and piled it on the edge of the pool in the back garden.

Liu He remembers that the content of child psychology he learned in his previous life specifically mentioned playing in the water and playing sand games, which is very helpful for healing the negative psychology of children in the process of growing up. Last year, he left the child in Jicheng and went to Yecheng, and he didn't get along with the two children for more than half a year, even if the child's mouth didn't know how to express his true feelings, but he would definitely have bad feelings, so Liu He wanted to play with the children to build sand and enhance the relationship between father and son.

The sleepy-eyed Liu Xiang came to the side of the sand pile, holding his sister Liu Yao in his right hand, and behind Liu Yao there was a girl who was older than Liu Xiang. This girl who is older than Liu Xiang is the orphan that Liu He rescued in the pile of dead people outside Macheng back then, that is, Cai Yu, the righteous daughter adopted by Cai Yong.

Liu He saw that the children were still a little confused, so he quietly picked up the bamboo tube water gun hidden under the sand, and then "snorted" at his son, and splashed a full of bamboo water on his son's face.

Liu Xiang was excited by the slightly cool clear water, and his competitive heart immediately rose in a straight line, and he suddenly screamed and rushed towards Liu He.

"Daddy bullies! Rush, let's surround Daddy together, take down the water gun, and shoot him with the water gun! ”

The three children rushed towards Liu He with a chatter, and a string of silver bell-like laughter suddenly sounded in the back garden.

Several women sitting in the gazebo looked at this scene and shook their heads. Cai Yan complained: "People in their thirties are still like children. If outsiders see this scene, his reputation as a great general will not be guaranteed. ”

"That's it, the husband spoils the children too much, I don't think I'm used to them so much! The people in the antechamber waiting to see him were so anxious that their necks were stretched, and he still had the heart to play with the children here. Mi Zhen echoed Cai Yan's words.

Da Qiao gently stroked the abdomen that was already obviously bulging, and said with a happy face: "I look at the two sisters, it's obviously wrong." If you love your children so much, you won't have time to be happy in your hearts! ”

Lu Niangrong, who was serving behind Cai Yan, pouted and said: "Hmph, the general is really eccentric, he obviously has time to play crazy with the children, but he doesn't take us to the mountains of the military capital to enjoy the cool and hunt!" ”

Xiao Qiao squeezed Lu Niangrong and said: "I see that you are also a child who has not grown up, you know how to hunt on horseback, and you don't learn how to learn female red and qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, if the general marries you to enter the door, he has to build a forest garden in Jicheng to tie you!" ”

Lu Niangrong glared at her apricot eyes, tilted her head and said, "I want you to take care of it!" Although I can't be a female celebrity, I can ride a high-headed horse, so that I can shoot the wild geese in the sky, unlike some people who only feel sad and sad in front of the bronze mirror all day long, and Gu Ying feels sorry for himself. Although the general is a scholar, he also practices martial arts and swords every morning, and I am the only one who feeds him when he looks at the entire harem, which is really hard! ”

Xiao Qiao and Lu Niangrong will quarrel as long as they get together, Xiao Qiao just sarcastically ridiculed Lu Niangrong for being a crazy woman who is not popular, and also used the verb "bolt". However, although the girl Niang Rong is not a female celebrity, she is also a smart woman with ice and snow, and immediately replied to Xiao Qiao with sharp language.

Zhen Mi's mind was the most meticulous among the women, she covered her mouth and whispered: "Look at the two of you, the three sisters are here, and the noise is so lively, if it spreads to the sand, be careful that the general will punish you for copying books at night!" ”

Zhen Mi didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, Xiao Qiao and Lu Niangrong immediately joined forces to deal with her.

Xiao Qiao said: "If you copy a book, you will copy a book, and I don't know how to write!" Don't think that the general praises you for learning simplified Chinese quickly, you have the ability to compare with Sister Cai, but I heard that Sister Cai only took half a day to completely master simplified Chinese. ”

Lu Niangrong said: "Even if you copy a book, you have to be counted as one!" I'm not like some people who write for less than half an hour, and then they hum and chirp that they are tired, and rely on the general to help grind. ”

Cai Yan saw that the three girls' verbal battles were escalating, so he hurriedly said: "You three little girls, don't be busy bickering, go over and see what your husband is doing hiding in the sand, why haven't the three children made a sound for a long time." ”

Lu Niangrong had been standing bored in the pavilion for a long time, and after hearing Cai Yan's words, she immediately ran out of the pavilion and walked around the white sand pile not far away. Xiao Qiao and Zhen Mi were not far behind, lifting their skirts and running quickly.

Behind the sand pile, Liu He is building a circular sand castle with his three children, of which Liu He is mainly responsible for the outer fort wall, Liu Xiang is busy digging a trench, Cai Yu is digging the windows and gates with his fingers at the top of the sand castle that has been configured, and Liu Yao is staggering to insert some of the leaves he is holding into the back garden of the castle.

"Liu Xiang, you fool, how can you dig the trench into the fortress wall, hurry up and fill it up and dig again!" This is Liu He's voice.

"Aunt Xiaoyu, don't dig the doorway, the house will collapse if you dig it again!" Liu Xiang is reminding Cai Yu.

"Yaoyao, don't plant trees, you go and bring all the wooden dolls in your bedroom, such a big castle has to be guarded by many guards!" Cai Yu was instructing Liu Yao.

"Yes, yes! In addition to taking wooden dolls, you should also raise a few big dogs, and there are a few bronze dogs given by Uncle Zhang in my room, and I also brought them together! Liu Xiang echoed.

"Liu Xiang, you go and get it, my sister is still young, where can I get those bronze dogs!" Liu He gave the order directly. (To be continued......)
