Seeing Mrs. Xia's appearance, Shen hurriedly came over and took a handkerchief to help Mrs. Xia wipe her tears.

After listening to Pei Lixing's self-reproachful words, He Ningxin couldn't hold back any longer, stood up with tears in her eyes, returned a salute, and said with a little choked up: "...... Justice is at ease in the hearts of the people, and those who owe it will be paid back after all, and the old man does not have to blame himself too much. Besides, your eldest daughter doesn't necessarily care about that. According to the little woman, she should be most concerned about her two children. Now that the old man and the old lady Pei, as well as the eldest and youngest grandmothers, have raised her two children properly, she has a spirit in the sky, and she will be grateful......"

Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian were so young that it was very strange to look at the adults in the room as if they were playing dumb riddles, so they had to turn their little heads around, looking at their grandfather for a while, and at the amiable aunt for a while.

Chu Qianqian saw his brother sitting next to that aunt, and he also broke down from Pei Lixing, ran over to He Ningxin, hugged her legs, looked up at He Ningxin and smiled.

He Ningxin bent down and hugged Chu Qianqian in her arms, not wanting the people in the house to be too sad, so she hurriedly changed the topic and said, "I am very close to these two children, and I hope that the old lady and the eldest and young grandmothers will often take them to our house to walk around." ”

Before Mrs. Xia and Shen could answer, Chu Qianqian had already nodded like pounded garlic, and said continuously: "Okay!" Good! Qianqian must have visited his aunt often! He tried his best to put on the appearance of an adult, and swept away the somewhat dull atmosphere in the room just now, and everyone laughed.

Shen came over, hugged Chu Qianqian from He Ningxin's arms, and said to He Ningxin with some apologies: "Our Qianqian is this temper, and the person we like is eager to dig out our hearts and lungs." If you don't like it, it's tiring to look at it. ”

He Ningxin was secretly surprised. Seeing that Chu Qianqian is only three years old, he has such a temperament, which is a little interesting.

After a few people finished talking, Master Pei said goodbye and went out, leaving the female dependents to accompany He Ningxin to speak.

When it was time for lunch, Mrs. Xia and Shen took Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian to accompany He Ningxin for another meal, and the few people chatted very well during the banquet.

After lunch, Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian had to take a nap. Mrs. Xia took Chu Qianqian to her inner room for a nap. Shen and He Ningxin came to Chu Qianyi's house, patting him and whispering to He Ningxin.

When Chu Qianyi was sleeping in a daze, he heard He Ningxin's unhurried voice in a hazy way, which evoked the deepest nostalgia in his heart, and muttered "Niang ......" in his dream, which made He Ningxin and Shen Shi, who were talking in a whisper, stunned.

Seeing He Ningxin's unbearable expression, Shen Shi had a better impression of her, and said softly: "It's normal for children to miss their mothers. - As long as he is willing to say it and does not hide it in his heart, it is good. "I also know that children can't be too introverted, otherwise it will not be good for his growth.

He Ningxin thought so, pondered for a moment, and then said to the Shen family: "If the eldest and young grandmothers are free, they can take Qianqian and Yi'er to our house tomorrow for a gathering." They were willing to talk to me, and I felt very close to these two children. ”

This request is actually quite abrupt.

Shen was stunned for a long time, and always felt that this Duchess of Zhenguo was a little shallow and deep-spoken, and she was too attentive to Qianqian and Yi'er, so she couldn't help but wake up, and her tone was also perfunctory, and she muttered: "Ah, Duchess Zhenguo is invited, of course we will go." It's just that I'm not idle tomorrow, so let's talk about it in a few days. ”

He Ningxin heard the perfunctory meaning in Shen's words, and secretly complained in her heart. Also, this time, I was too eager. So far, I'm a little better than a stranger. And these two children, the Pei family obviously watched very closely. He should gradually win the favor of the Pei family, and then get close to the two children, so that it is more logical. - But I couldn't stand it anymore, so I rashly came to ask for a meeting, and I was obviously different from the two children......

Now that the Pei family is vigilant, she wants to see these two children in the future, maybe it will be even more difficult.

Thinking of this, He Ningxin's mind was spinning rapidly, and suddenly an idea came to mind, and she pretended not to see Shen's obviously vigilant expression, and said to Shen with a smile: "It's okay." Tomorrow and tomorrow will do. As long as the grandmother can take them out and walk around, it is good for the two children. If the young grandmother is busy with housekeeping, Mrs. Xia has nothing to do at home now, and she sleeps when she stays long. Just let Old Madam Xia take them around. I come to see them often when I have time. ”

Shen pursed his lips tightly and looked at He Ningxin quietly, not saying yes or bad.

He Ningxin smiled and said again: "If the young grandmother doesn't dislike it, I want to choose a day and ask the young grandmother and Mrs. Xia to take the two children to Dajue Temple with me, and let the abbot of Dajue Temple help me get on a contract with these two children." In the future, when you move around, it will be more justified. ”

The deed is to accept these two children as friendship children, second to biological children. And the filial piety and respect of the children to the father and mother is second only to the father and mother, that is, the godmother of the two children.

In doing so, the Pei family should be able to see her sincerity, and they should also believe that she has no crooked thoughts of people she can't see, right? Not a lot of words

The people of the Great Qi Dynasty all believed that the deed of friendship with children would share the blessings of friendship with father and mother, especially in front of the Bodhisattva, which was even more extraordinary. Therefore, most people are reluctant to be the friendly father and mother of other people's children, for fear of diluting the blessings of their own children. If you need to find someone to make a deed to be a friendly child, you can generally only find a person from outside the world like the monks and nuns in the temple. Anyway, they won't have children, and they are people who believe in Buddhism, believe in the boundless Dharma, and are willing to take the contract.

A high-ranking lady like He Ningxin took the initiative to give people a deed, if not unique in the Great Qi Dynasty, it was rare.

Shen put down half of his heart and temporarily believed that He Ningxin had no malicious intent, but this kind of thing was extraordinary, and it was not something she could decide.

Shen Shi stretched his brows and said with some apologies: "What Madame mentioned is also a good intention. If it can be done, it will be good for the two children. But this matter is not up to me, and I hope that my wife will wait a few days and let me discuss it with my family. ”

He Ningxin didn't expect the Pei family to agree to her immediately, so she nodded with a smile: "It should be." The eldest and youngest grandmothers helped Ning Xin to say a few more kind words to Old Man Pei and Old Mrs. Xia. He also assured Shen that he just wanted to move around conveniently, and he didn't ask for anything else.

Shen answered, and exchanged a few words with He Ningxin, and He Ningxin got up to say goodbye and go home. Because Mrs. Xia was still taking a nap there, He Ningxin didn't go over to bother, so she asked Shen to help her say goodbye to Old Man Pei and Old Madam Xia, and went back first.

After He Ningxin left, Shen called Chu Qianyi's nurse Jiang's mother to come and take care of him, and he went to Mrs. Xia's house to inquire first.

Mrs. Xia happened to be up from a nap, and when she saw Shen coming, she let her in.

Seeing that Chu Qianqian was still sleeping on the side, Shen said in a low voice: "Mother, my daughter-in-law has something to say to my mother." He glanced at Chu Qianqian's side again.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xia called Chu Qianqian's nurse Hong's mother to come over and look at her, and she followed Shen to the outhouse to sit down, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Shen stepped forward and whispered what the Duchess of Zhenguo had just asked for, and told Mrs. Xia in detail.

When Mrs. Xia heard this, she also felt strange, and said, "How can you look up to our Yi'er and Humility like this?" - Is there really such a thing as fate in a previous life? ”

Shen covered his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, and said, "My mother is really good at laughing." People use the 'fate of the previous life' to be a parent, how did my mother talk about this? ”

Mrs. Xia was also amused and said, "I just remembered it suddenly." After bowing her head and pondering for a long time, Mrs. Xia said thoughtfully: "After dinner in the evening, let's discuss this matter with the master and Shuren." "Shuren is the husband of the Shen family, and Pei Shuren, the eldest son of Mrs. Xia, has now been in the position of a scholar of the Hanlin Academy for more than two years, almost three years, and it is rumored that he is about to enter the Wenyuan Pavilion as a minister.

After dinner in the evening, Mrs. Xia asked the nurse to take the children away, and went to the flower hall with Master Pei, Pei Shuren, and Shen to eat tea and gossip.

The eight large partition windows of the flower hall are open in all directions, and there is no figure to be seen in the courtyard.

After the maids had served their tea, they withdrew, not standing around the house.

Mrs. Xia saw that everyone was gone, so she motioned to Shen to tell the Duchess of Zhenguo what she wanted today.

Pei Shuren frowned as soon as he was the first one, and said, "What does the Zhenguo Mansion have to ask us for?" "If you are courteous to others, you will ask for something. Pei Shuren's intuition was for the affairs of the court, so the Duchess of Zhenguo used the excuse to start with the two children.

Mrs. Xia didn't think so, and shook her head when she heard this: "I don't think it has anything to do with the Zhenguo Mansion, it's what this Zhenguo Duchess asks for alone." ”

Seeing Pei Shuren's disbelief, Shen also helped his mother-in-law, Mrs. Xia, speak: "If Uncle had seen this lady getting along with the two children today, he would definitely not say that." Although I don't know why the Duchess of Zhenguo is so kind to Yi'er and Qianqian, this matter is actually beneficial and harmless to the two children. "Even if the deed is on, the two children will not go to the Zhenguo Mansion to live with that lady, so there is no need to worry that she will take the opportunity to harm them. On the contrary, on the big picture, the Zhenguo Mansion has become the backstage of the two children. Whoever wants to move these two children, the Zhenguo Mansion can justifiably come out to support them.

Master Pei nodded slightly. What Shen said was similar to what he thought.

Pei Shuren thought about it for a while, and also figured it out, nodded and smiled at Shen: "It's still a lady's talent, think about this matter clearly." The husband is indeed a little obsessed. ”

Shen Shi hurriedly said: "Uncle is not like me and my mother, I know a little about that Duchess of Zhenguo. It is understandable to have such thoughts. ”

In fact, when it comes to children, no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful.

Master Pei smiled and nodded at the top, and said, "If the Duchess of Zhenguo really has a contract with Yi'er and Qianqian, Yi'er will have another help in the future." - It's just that the town guild will not agree to his wife's contract with Yi'er and Qianqian, which are two different things. ”

Wiping tears, uploaded in advance. (╯□╰)o
