Leaving Home (2)
In the evening of the same day, the three children arrived at Hefu.
The last stubbornness of the Hou Shizi of Jinning was to personally send his three children here.
He Qi deliberately stayed in the mansion, and when he saw the prince of Jinning, he was quite polite: "I miss my three nephews and want to keep them for a few days." Unexpectedly, you even made this trip. I can't get away with it. ”
Facing the new Duke of Pingguo, who was in charge of the 100,000 border army, the Marquis of Jinning immediately threw away all the dissatisfaction and unhappiness in his heart, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Guo is too polite. I'm the children's uncle, and it's only right to give them a ride. ”
It's getting dark, so it's a good thing to stay for dinner and congratulate the prayer set.
The Marquis of Jinning pondered happily in his heart, and listened to He Qi and smiled: "Such a long journey, hurry back while it is not dark." I won't keep you. ”
Hou Shizi of Jinning: "......"
The Hou Shizi of Jinning snorted and hid his embarrassment: "That's right." It's hard to walk at night, and I want to go back early. ”
He ordered Su Mudai to give the Hou Shizi of Jinning a ride.
After the prince of Jinning Hou left, He Qicai looked at the three nephews with a smile.
Zheng Dalang is only one year younger than Ah Yuan Aman, eight years old this year, and looks like his own father, which is simply a miniature version of Zheng Qinghuai. The eyebrows and eyes are flexible, and he looks like a clever child.
Zheng Erlang is five years old this year, and his appearance is much more delicate than Zheng Dalang. Zheng Saburo is only two years old this year, a few months younger than his own Saburo.
The three children were taught to be quite polite, and stood in a row with fists in a salute: "I've seen uncle." ”
Over the past year or so, He Qi has been to Zheng's house several times. The children have seen him.
He Qi smiled: "Get up!" From this day onwards, you will stay in Hefu. Then, he called the three brothers of Ayuan Aman Saburo: "Ayuan Aman, you two are older and are brothers." In the future, you have to take care of them a lot. ”
When Ah Yuan Aman saw that his playmate had come, he was so happy in his heart that he responded with joy on his face.
San Lang didn't wait for his father's instructions, so he walked to Zheng Sanlang's side: "Is your name San Lang?" ”
Zheng Saburo nodded.
Saburo grinned, "My name is Saburo too." After that, the two of us played together. ”
Zheng Saburo obediently agreed.
He Qi smiled dumbly. This San Lang, who is the youngest in the family on weekdays, suddenly has a younger one, and he has become an elder brother, and he is quite excited.
While talking, Cheng Jinrong came back.
came back with Cheng Jinrong, as well as Zhu Qixuan.
The three Zheng Dalang brothers, who were originally a little restrained, immediately became active when they saw their mother-in-law, and immediately gathered around their mother-in-law. Zhu Qixuan stretched his brows, with a smile in his eyes: "You came to see your aunt first." ”
The three children stood together and saluted: "I've seen my aunt." ”
Cheng Jinrong pursed his lips and smiled: "Get up, don't be restrained." From now on, the three of you brothers will live here in peace. ”
Then he said to Zhu Qixuan: "We have Mr. Xixi in our family, and Master Wu also has it." Da Lang and Ah Yuan Aman studied and practiced martial arts together. Jiro is five years old this year, and he has also reached the age of enlightenment and study. I'll go to the study tomorrow too. ”
Zhu Qixuan was moved and ashamed: "I'm really uncomfortable in my heart when I bother you everywhere." ”
Neither of them nor the husband nor wife is afraid of hardship. But the children are still young, so they have to have a good environment to study and practice martial arts. Living in the He Mansion, of course, ten times and a hundred times stronger than the Zheng family. For the sake of the children, she had to be cheeky.
Cheng Jinrong smiled and comforted Zhu Qixuan: "You and He Qi are cousins, no matter what level, He Qi and Zheng Qinghuai are also friends who grew up together since childhood." It is also appropriate to take care of each other. ”
"In the future, don't say such unfamiliar things."
"You and Zheng Qinghuai are in the hospital on weekdays, and the children live here steadily. If you have free time, you husband and wife will come back to spend more time with your children. ”
Zhu Qixuan's eyes were red and he nodded.
……
Cheng Jinrong had already made a yard out, enough for their family of five.
The people who serve the children's food and clothing have been selected, and there are two small servants around each child. There are also two mothers-in-law who do chores and rough work.
The mother and son had not seen each other for two days, and when they arrived at the house, the children immediately began to chatter.
"Mother, the house here is really big." Zheng Dalang was still young when he left Beijing, and he has no memory of his childhood life. For as long as I can remember, I have lived in a small house. When he saw that the house was clean and spacious, he was very happy.
Zheng Erlang's eyes were also shining: "Mother, the bed is also very big, and it is enough for the three of us brothers to sleep together." ”
Zheng Sanlang held his mother's arm and shook it non-stop, and his little face was full of excitement. He didn't speak very well, and when he was happy, he shouted "mother" one after another.
Zhu Qixuan saw his sons so excited, both funny and a little sad.
In the past few years, the Zheng family's life has indeed been hard.
In the past, he was pampered with fine clothes and food, but once he became a criminal minister. After arriving at the border gate, every year the men have to serve half a year of hard labor, and the female dependents also have to do a lot of cotton clothes, shoes and socks every year. The daily meals are also extremely simple, and you can only see meat once in a few days.
When it was their turn to be at the couple's place, they were reluctant to eat some meat occasionally, so they kept it for their sons.
The children have grown up so much, and they really haven't had a good life. That's why I'm so excited to see such a slightly more spacious room.
"From this day onwards, you will stay here." Zhu Qixuan whispered: "Da Lang, you are the biggest, and you have to take care of your two younger brothers." You can't be naughty, you have to be obedient in everything. ”
Zheng Dalang obediently responded: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely take care of the second and third brothers." ”
Zheng Erlang and Zheng Sanlang responded in unison: "Don't worry, mother, we will be obedient." ”
Zhu Qixuan smiled with satisfaction and touched the children's heads one by one: "Okay, you are all obedient and relieved." ”
Although life is hard, the husband and wife work together, and the sons are also filial and obedient. A hard life also has its own fun.
"Mother, where is Dad?" Zheng Dalang asked quietly.
Zhu Qixuan replied: "Your grandmother is sick and lives in the hospital. Your father stayed in the hospital to take care of your grandmother. After two days, I'll stay there and let your dad come back with you. ”
Zheng Dalang immediately said: "It's better for my mother to come back and accompany us!" ”
Zheng Erlang and Zheng Saburo nodded again and again in agreement.
Zhu Qixuan was amused by his sons: "In front of your father, don't say that." Otherwise, it will hurt your father's heart too much. ”
After dinner, the children were put to sleep, and Zhu Qixuan fell asleep together.
She used to be the most pampered, sleeping on the bed. After marrying Zheng Qinghuai and living in the Zheng family, it took more than half a year to slowly adapt. Now this delicate and pretentious problem is gone.
Wherever she went, she could quickly close her eyes and fall asleep.
