Chapter 24: Seeing the World
"Mother." Shi Nian has never been smiling, and when he gets along with his parents, he is also like a stern old gentleman, with a stiff face and a ruthless appearance.
The second lady held Shi Nian's arm, looked left and right, tears rolled in her eyes and looked like they were about to fall, and the second master Shi Heqing on the side scolded: "It's a good day, the son you miss is also back, what are you crying about, it's like you've been wronged." ”
Shi Nian reached out and patted the second lady's shoulder, comforting his mother, but he didn't say anything.
"Big brother, I'm tired all the way, your grandmother heard that you are coming back, and she was looking forward to it a few days ago, and now that it's here, go see your grandmother first, just rest and rest, and let the girl call you when it's time." Hou Ye Shi Yuan looked at Shi Nian and said.
Shi Nian bowed and saluted: "I know, uncle, the nephew will retire first." ”
"I'm going to see my grandmother too." Shi Qingqian, who was sitting in his father's arms, hurriedly spoke when he heard this, jumped down and grabbed Shi Nian's hand.
Shi Nian's hands are very good-looking, although they are a little thin, but they can see that the words written with their hands must be magnificent and powerful.
Shi Yuan finally waited for his baby to come back, although he was reluctant, but Shi Qingqian wanted to go to see his grandmother, and he was also filial, so he responded with a smile, and looked at Shi Shuning, who was standing on the side and had not spoken: "Sister Ning'er should also follow, you juniors will go to see your grandmother." ”
When Shi Shu Ning heard this, he obediently saluted, looking like a beautiful girl: "Okay." ”
The second lady looked at Shi Nian with teary eyes, and seemed to want to follow, but was stopped by the second master on the side: "The juniors go to their mother's knees to laugh, what are you going to have a good time?" Wouldn't it be better for them to see how your mother spoke to you? I'm not afraid of jokes. ”
When the second lady heard this, she bit her lower lip, and could only sit in her place, reluctantly looking at Shi Nian's figure that was gradually moving away.
"Okay, don't always talk about the second sister, she is also the eldest brother who misses her mother, and now that she has finally seen her, she naturally can't give up." The eldest lady smiled and patted the second lady's hand and comforted her.
Shi Yuan, who was seated, put down the teacup in his hand, and the main hall was quiet.
"Calling you over this time, not only is it about the eldest brother coming back, but also because the royal family is going to hold a birthday banquet in the palace in a few days, there are some things, the eldest lady and I think we should discuss with you and see what you think."
The longevity banquet has always been the head of the family, and everything is decided over there, but now Shi Yuan said that there is something to discuss, which can't help but make them curious.
"Big brother, you say." The second room Shi Heqing has gained momentum, he has been weak in officialdom, even with the help of his eldest brother Hou Ye, there is no improvement, let alone participating in this longevity banquet, where does the royal family want to get him.
Shi Yuan and the eldest lady on the side looked at each other, and said slowly: "We are thinking, this longevity banquet, bring the children of the family over." ”
When Mrs. Sanfang heard this, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and she looked at the eldest lady on the seat without moving: "What do you mean by Master Hou and Big Sister, all the children?" ”
The eldest lady nodded: "Naturally, in previous years, this kind of place was the children in our yard, we thought about it this time, the children of the family are not small, we should go outside to see, see the world, and we can't let the children of other families look down on our Houfu brothers and sisters." ”
The third master didn't know what to worry about, so he couldn't get down, Mrs. Sanfang pushed him, turned his head to look at the Hou Ye who was seated, and nodded hurriedly: "Hey, yes, Hou Ye's idea is good, it's long overdue, the children are all older, and they have been nesting at home, so it's time for others to say that the children of our Hou Mansion haven't seen the world." ”
The eldest lady looked at the third lady like this, but just smiled and didn't say anything.
Hou Ye nodded, looked at the second room and asked, "Then the third room is here, what about you?" ”
The second master didn't seem to expect that what the Hou Ye was going to say was just this, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed, looking at the angry mouth that was still wiping tears with red eyes on the side: "What are you crying about, the eldest brother asked, let the child go to the palace?" ”
Mrs. Erfang and everyone are not on the same channel, as soon as she heard that she was going to the palace, she just thought that she was letting her child leave her, and hurriedly said: "Don't go, don't go, our child won't go, thank you Hou Ye and big sister for your kindness, our brother still has to read books, and I don't have time." ”
When the eldest lady heard this, she couldn't help frowning: "Second sister, it's not good for you to let the eldest brother read in the room all the time, you should let him socialize with people more." ”
The Hou Ye on the side nodded in agreement.
Erfang still shook his head blindly: "No need, what kind of person is our eldest brother, he will be the top in the future, where do you need him to go up and put a hot face on someone else's ass?" Those people should be baba in front of our brother. ”
When the eldest lady heard this, she couldn't say anything, so she shook her head helplessly.
What should have been said was said, what should have been discussed was discussed, and the people in the house dispersed and returned to their respective quarters.
On the road.
Shi Qingqian held Shi Nian's hand tightly, knowing that his steps were small, Shi Nian deliberately slowed down his steps, so that Shi Qingqian didn't have to work too hard.
"I heard that you were taken by the head of Chen Wanyuan and invited to study in the academy?"
Shi Qingqian nodded with a smile and pouted: "Yes, I'm not very powerful, big brother." ”
Shi Nian stretched out his hand and hooked Shi Qingqian's little nose, his face was tense when he faced his parents, but he became very soft when he faced Shi Qingqian.
"Naturally, the little sister is the smartest and smartest."
Shi Qingqian stuck out his tongue happily, and Shi Shuning, who had not spoken much, suddenly spoke.
"Big brother really likes little sister, I am jealous when I see it."
Shi Nian glanced at her when she heard this, and the softness on her face faded a little, the two were obviously born from the same mother, but in terms of relationship, they were far inferior to Shi Qingqian.
"My little sister is the youngest, I inadvertently took more care of it, and my sister is not strange."
Shi Shuning covered his mouth and smiled, with a little helplessness on his face: "Where can I blame the big brother, the little sister is well-behaved and cute, even I love it when I see it, how can the big brother blame it." ”
"Besides, the little sister has a lot of knowledge, and she was fortunate enough to be appreciated by the head of the hospital, which really makes me happy and envious as a sister."
When Shi Nian heard this, he looked at Shi Qingqian with a little more smile in his eyes, nodded, didn't say anything more, stretched out his hand and hugged Shi Qingqian, who was blinking his eyes beside him and looking at him with an expectant face: "The fifth sister should read more books, if you really want to go to the academy, you can use your knowledge to try." ”
Shi Shu Ning only smiled when he heard this, and did not continue to say anything.
"Will the eldest brother also come to the academy to study?" Shi Qingqian looked at Shi Nian and couldn't help but ask.
Shi Nian smiled: "Little sister wants my brother to go?" ”
"Naturally, then you can not only see your big brother every day, but also go to school with your big brother."
Shi Nian looked at the sparkle in Shi Qingqian's eyes, and couldn't help but respond: "Okay." ”
