Meng Yuxuan watched Aunt Lin leave, until Aunt Lin returned to her courtyard, and she knocked on Shangguan Huan's door. The latter's deep voice came from inside the room: "Come in." ”

Meng Yuxuan looked at the man sitting on the bed. He held a book in his hand, and in his arms sat a pale Shangguan Xi. Shangguan Xi frowned as he listened to him explain the contents in detail.

"Concentrate." Shangguan Xi saw Meng Yuxuan come in and looked at her with pitiful eyes. Seeing this, Shangguan Huan reprimanded unhappily.

Shangguan Xi hurriedly hung his head and followed Shangguan Huan to read the contents of the book. However, those obscure classical Chinese are too complicated for children who are only four or five years old. Shangguan Huan has no such cognition at all. No matter how hard Shangguan Xi worked, he had to watch him read it. Meng Yuxuan couldn't stand it anymore from the side, and said what she had been holding back for a long time.

"He's young. If you teach him like this, you will only make him tired of learning. ”

Shangguan Huan frowned and said coldly, "What do you mean...... Am I not teaching well? You don't think that knowing a few words gives me the right to teach me how to be a good master, do you? ”

Meng Yuxuan looked at Shangguan Huan in surprise.

It's the first time I've heard him say such a long list of words every day. But listening to his tone, it seems like he's not happy that she's meddling?

"You don't think that if you know a few words, you can be a good master, do you? Is it okay to teach gradually? He was only four years old, and at the age of four, he should have learned what a four-year-old child should learn, instead of reading a book that even Xiucai couldn't read. Meng Yuxuan returned his words to him, and looked at the man with a stinky face opposite.

Xi'er never forgets it, and at the age of three, she can memorize the thousand-character text and the three-character scripture disciple Guan word for word, and she can also understand its meaning. The books were really complicated for other kids, and it was a breeze for him. He is my son, and do you know more than I do about his power? Shangguan Huan sneered: "Self-righteous woman! Just because you can't do it doesn't mean someone else can't do it. Leave his studies alone in the future. If you really want to stay in this home, all you need to do is get your three meals a day ready. ”

"Dad, don't scold Aunt Xuan like this." Shangguan Xi pulled Shangguan Huan's sleeve and said with a crying voice.

Meng Yuxuan was speechless for a moment. Shangguan Xi has such an ability, she really didn't expect it. No wonder Shangguan Huan attaches so much importance to his studies. If it were her, she would also value such a genius son. However, she will not pull out the seedlings to help them grow, but will only feel sorry for his early wisdom and give him more time to rest. She would tell him that as long as he had a good heart, the child should look like a child.

"You only value his studies and don't ask if that's what he wants. How long has it been since he spoke to you? I mean anything other than studying. Also, how long has it been since he's laughed, have you noticed? Meng Yuxuan smiled coldly: "He is so young, what he needs is the care and love of his parents, not being forced to grow up." ”

"You mean, do you want to be his mother?" Shangguan Huan looked at Meng Yuxuan faintly, his eyes full of ridicule.

Meng Yuxuan's expression froze. Is that talking about that now? When did she say she wanted to be his 'mother'? Why is this man's thinking so strange?

The words of refusal were not spoken, and Shangguan Xi's expectant eyes made her stop the words that came to her mouth. She remembered the regrets of her previous life, remembered her plan to stay here for the time being before she had no ability to protect herself, and said with a red face: "So what? Master Li sent me here to be your daughter-in-law, if you don't want to, why accept me? Since I accepted it, I am the hostess here and your daughter-in-law. You haven't been out for too long, and you don't know what the people in the village call me, do you? They all call me Xi'er Niang. Anyway, the name has been decided, and you can't rely on it if you want to. ”

Shangguan Huan looked at the cockfighting woman in front of him with a complicated expression. She was asserting her supremacy, and her attitude and tone were extremely violent, but he didn't want to contradict what she said.

During this time, she boiled medicine for them every day, cooked for them, and tidied up the vegetable garden after busy for them. In a short period of time, this small place really feels like home. He has lived here for many years and has never taken this place to heart. In his opinion, it is just a place to stay, and sooner or later he will leave. However, now he actually found it pleasing to the eye.

Except for the trouble she caused at the beginning, this woman is actually quite good. Her eyes were pure, like a stream, so clean that she wanted to protect them. However, with such a brilliant appearance, I don't know if it's a good thing in this world of the jungle. Sooner or later, she'll have to get him in trouble!

"Dad, can I call Aunt Xuan 'Mother'? That's what everyone calls her anyway. I also want to be called a mother. Shangguan Xi looked at Shangguan Huan weakly and said.

Shangguan Huan touched Shangguan Xi's head. He didn't answer, but in Meng Yuxuan's eyes, this was a tacit acquiescence.

"Mother, Xi'er finally has a mother." Shangguan Xi changed his teary eyes just now, and the whole person smiled happily.

Shangguan Huan looked at Shangguan Xi guiltily. He saw Shangguan Xi throw himself into Meng Yuxuan's arms and close the book in his hand.

Meng Yuxuan is right, this kid hasn't laughed for a long time. Perhaps, he really needs a 'mother' who can lean on his arms and be coquettish. No matter how good his 'father' is, he can't do what a 'mother' can do.

Meng Yuxuan felt strange in her heart, a little shy, and a little annoyed. She glanced at the man opposite, and the way his face didn't change made her angry.

Why is she the only one who is worried? She is a big beauty and is willing to be his 'daughter-in-law', isn't he a little moved? Even if she did something wrong before and caused him to be so seriously injured, she was willing to stay and take care of their father and son, he wouldn't still hold a grudge in his heart, right? If that's the case, that's a bit too stingy! Hum!

"Xi'er, when you're tired, tell your father, don't keep everything in your heart. If you don't say, how will he know? Tell him that you are also a human being, and that you are not beaten with iron. Meng Yuxuan touched Shangguan Xi's little face. Look at this little face haggard like this, wait a minute...... Mother will make you something delicious. ”

The first time she was a 'mother', Meng Yuxuan's heart had subtle changes. This change is indescribable, but it is amazing.

Although Shangguanxi is not related to her by blood, this child is likable, and women are born with motherhood, so she also wants to be good to him from the bottom of her heart.

"Mother, the dishes you make are the best. Xi'er has been eating fat recently! Shangguan Xi said sweetly.

"This little mouth is so sweet. Didn't you smear honey? Meng Yuxuan touched Shangguanxi's little face and said. I'm going out to pick some hawthorns later, do you want to go along? ”

"Good!" Shangguan Xi took Meng Yuxuan's hand and nodded again and again. However, remembering that Shangguan Huan still had a very heavy task entrusted to him, the little face immediately took it off. He looked at Shangguan Huan sadly and said, "But my father asked me to write a hundred big characters." I'm afraid I don't have time to go out with my mother. ”

Both pairs of eyes looked at Shangguan Huan at the same time. Obviously there was no blood relationship, but the two pairs of eyes looked at Shangguan Huan with exactly the same eyes, and the latter unexpectedly hooked his lips.

"Take a day off and write one hundred and fifty characters tomorrow." Shangguan Huan threw the book in his hand on the head of the bed.

"Good (bad)." Shangguan Xi and Meng Yuxuan spoke in unison.

Meng Yuxuan knocked on Shangguan Xi's forehead, and said angrily: "Stupid boy, what about one hundred and fifty big characters, do you think fifteen?" And said okay, stupid or not? ”

Shangguan Xi touched the place where Meng Yuxuan was hit, and his eyes smiled into the shape of curved teeth.

"It's okay, mother. I used to be able to write 300 big words a day! One hundred and fifty big words is not a lot, and it will be written in no time. ”

Meng Yuxuan shook her head helplessly and sighed lightly: "Look, a good child is about to become a nerd." You are still young, and there are still many things that you should try in life, how can you be like a little adult and have nothing but books all day long? How do bees collect honey? What does chrysanthemum plum pear blossom taste like? If you want to eat fish, how do you catch fish in the water? Do you know any of these? You can only study, how will you take care of yourself in the future? If a person can't even take care of himself, how can he do other big things? Books are not omnipotent, and your body is not made of iron."

"I'm useless. Don't you like me? Shangguan Xi looked at Meng Yuxuan sadly.

Meng Yuxuan touched Shangguan Xi's head, took his hand and walked towards the door. She smiled and said, "Of course not. You're still young, it's still too late to start learning. Your dad said you were a genius and could never forget. Things that are simpler than books are not difficult for you at all, so you don't have to worry about them. ”

"Really?" Shangguan Xi asked hesitantly.

"More real than pearls." Meng Yuxuan said with a smile.

"Aren't you going to pick hawthorns? Don't go yet! Shangguan Huan interrupted the conversation between the two impatiently.

"Go now." Meng Yuxuan put on Shangguan Xi's shoes and socks, pulled him out while laughing, and turned around when he walked to the door and said, "I suddenly remembered." I came in to tell you that tomorrow the village chief's little grandson will hold a 100-day banquet, and I want to pick a few green vegetables with two catties of rice, what do you think? ”

Shangguan Huan's eyes were flat: "It's up to you." ”

"Of course, you have to be courteous, what will others think if you don't follow the courtesy? You have lived in the village for a few years, why is it that no one is willing to get close to you except Aunt Lin's family? It can be seen how bad your popularity is. If you want to stay here for a long time, you have to have a personal relationship, right? Not to mention anything else, if Xi'er wants to go to school in the future, she has to write a list with the village chief! Meng Yuxuan said.

"......," Shangguan Huan's originally calm eyes showed a look of disdain. I said - whatever you want, you decide. Aren't you the hostess here? This little thing still asks me, what do you want you to do as a hostess? ”

Meng Yuxuan was made hot by Shangguan Huan's eyes. It's a shame! actually made such an oolong.

He's to blame! Who told him not to say a few more words? One sentence is so short, do you really think that everyone is a roundworm in his stomach?
