"Remember, the strokes should be from left to right, from top to bottom, the pen should be reversed, the pen should be lifted, and the wrist should be lifted slowly when skimming, so that the pen edge looks good......"

Wei Shuyi and Minglan sat side by side in front of the table, demonstrating one stroke at a time, Minglan nodded casually, indicating that she understood, but her eyes kept glancing at the cradle next to the bed.

Lying in the cradle is the seventh child of the Sheng family who is less than half a year old, and now he also has his own milk name, called Brother Hao.

Seeing that Banxia was gently shaking the cradle, Minglan asked softly, "Is the little brother asleep?" ”

Wei Shuyi glanced at his absent-minded daughter, and said angrily: "You still have to mind yourself, look at the pen you wrote, I let you practice calligraphy early, or write like this!" ”

"Oh, the ancients all said that freezing three feet is not a day's cold, as long as you can make a little progress every day, it's very good!"

As Minglan spoke, she got out of Wei Shuyi's arms, and her round body was pressed against the edge of the cradle.

Looking at Brother Hao'er in the cradle who closed his eyes tightly and slept soundly, Minglan grinned, stretched out his finger and gently touched his little face, and quickly retracted it, with a bright smile on his face.

"Be careful, it's so easy to fall asleep, don't wake him up again, or you'll have to toss all night!"

Wei Shuyi helplessly held his forehead with his hand, this leather monkey is not serious about practicing calligraphy, and he has a lot of fun playing with his younger brother.

Wei Shuyi understands very well in his heart that his daughter's current out-of-the-box temperament is inseparable from her own negligence in discipline, but she really wants to set rules for her daughter, and Wei Shuyi can't be ruthless.

In the most difficult days, Minglan has always been by Wei Shuyi's side, the mother and daughter depend on each other, how much suffering they have suffered and how many grievances they have suffered along the way, Wei Shuyi knows best in his heart.

failed to give Minglan a happy and beautiful childhood, Wei Shuyi has always felt guilty and blamed himself.

She always unconsciously thinks that Minglan had a too hard childhood, and now that she can finally live a carefree life, she really shouldn't blame her too much.

But at the same time, reason kept reminding Wei Shuyi that the current age is a critical period for the formation of children's personalities, and if there is not enough education and guidance, no one can predict which unknown track Minglan will slide into in the future.

"Alas, in the final analysis, it's still useless for me to be a little lady, I don't have the ability to please the lord, and I can't discipline my daughter ruthlessly......"

Wei Shuyi sighed and muttered in a low voice.

There are some things that have dragged on for so long, and it is time to put them on the agenda.

"Ming'er, I heard that the old lady has been sick recently, and after morning classes every day, you will go to the old lady to ask for peace and serve you, and do your filial piety for your father."

Minglan was slightly stunned, and when she looked back and saw Wei Shuyi's serious eyes, she was inexplicably a little flustered: "Auntie, don't you want Ming'er?" ”

Seeing that Minglan Shui Lingling's big eyes were covered with a layer of mist, Wei Shuyi's heart was sour, but he still endured his sentimental emotions, and shouted in a deep voice with a straight face: "Sheng Minglan, your wings are hard now, don't you even listen to me?" ”

Since the situation of the mother and daughter in the Sheng family has improved greatly, Minglan has not seen Wei Shuyi put on such a stern face for a long time, and she was so frightened that her face turned pale for a while, biting her lip and not daring to speak.

"Wow-"

Seeing that Wei Shuyi showed no signs of changing her words, Minglan finally couldn't help it, hugged Wei Shuyi's thigh, and cried: "Auntie, Ming'er can't bear you, reluctant brother, Ming'er doesn't want to go to grandmother!" ”

"Why should I give up?"

Wei Shuyi took a deep breath and sighed faintly: "Ming'er, you have always been sensible, you should know why I want you to Shou'an Hall, right?" ”

Minglan raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked up at Wei Shuyi, and sobbed: "It's all because Ming'er is not good, she doesn't listen to A-Niang's words, and she always loves to be naughty and mischievous, so that A-Niang worries." A-Niang rest assured, Ming'er will never dare to do it again in the future, Ming'er will practice calligraphy well! ”

Wei Shuyi took his daughter into his arms, gently patted her back with his palm, and said softly: "Ming'er, A-Niang is useless, not only did she not make you happy, but she also had to follow A-Niang to endure hardships and hardships, fortunately, with the help of your cousin Chen, we can have a good life today."

But life is lived by ourselves, we can't always rely on others, we have to learn our own skills in order to settle down in this world. I'm useless, but you're a smart and good boy, you can't delay by my side, and your grandmother will teach you, so that I can really rest assured. Do you understand this truth? ”

Minglan lay in Wei Shuyi's arms, her little head pressed against Wei Shuyi's chest, and she sobbed in a low voice.

After a long time, she gradually stopped crying and nodded vigorously.

……

At the beginning of the year, Hua Lan married Zhongqin Bofu, and there was no one around the old lady, so Shou'an Tang released a message, saying that the old lady was old and lonely, and she wanted to raise a girl by her side and talk about the loneliness.

When the news came out, a few families were happy and a few were sad.

The old lady was born in the Yongyi Marquis Mansion, and was educated in the palace when she was young, with high conduct and rich experience, and the girl can be raised under her knees, and there will be many benefits in the future, which everyone knows in their hearts.

Wang Ruofu's eldest daughter Hua Lan was raised by the old lady's side, and she had the deepest understanding of the old lady's ability to raise her children, but there was one thing that she could not accept, that is, the pain of long-term separation from her own flesh and blood.

Hua Lan had already let her experience it once, and when she arrived at Rulan, Wang Ruofu really didn't want to do it again.

Although Hua Lan repeatedly told Wang Ruofu about her interests before she got married, and persuaded her to send Rulan to Shou'an Hall to make up for her shortcomings, Wang Ruofu coped with things every time and didn't really take it to heart.

On the contrary, it was Lin Yushuang who went out more open-mindedly than Wang Ruofu, and was willing to let her daughter suffer for the sake of dignity in the future.

Since the news came out of Shou'an Hall, Lin Yushuang sent Mo Lan to serve the old lady every day, serving tea and water, and breathing in a low voice, but she could accompany Xiaoyi with her heart, just to make the old lady happy and make the old lady happy.

Lin Yushuang also tried her best to serve Sheng Hong comfortably every night, and blew the pillow wind on Sheng Hong.

Among Rulan and Mo Lan, Sheng Hong originally liked Mo Lan more. Mo Lan is a concubine, if she can be raised under the old lady's knees, she can also let her in-laws take a look at her when discussing marriage in the future, so that she will not be too much worse than Lan, a concubine.

As for Minglan who is a concubine like Mo Lan, it is not in Sheng Hong's consideration at all.

And it's no wonder.

In Sheng Hong's view, the sincere love between him and Lin Yushuang is to break through feudal etiquette, and Changfeng and Mo Lan are the crystallization of their love.

As for Wei Shuyi, Sheng Hong only saw the color, and did not have any love, Minglan and Brother Hao were at most accidents caused by passion.

Although they are all his own flesh and blood, Sheng Hong will still be unconsciously biased.

However, Rao is Mo Lan behaved cautiously and docilely, and Sheng Hong was on the side to help beat the side drum, and the old lady never let go.

In the final analysis, this is the old lady herself picking people, she has to be willing, although Sheng Hong is the head of the family, it is impossible to shoehorn a daughter over.

After days of hard work, Mo Lan couldn't help but be a little discouraged, but Lin Yushuang saw it more thoroughly than her daughter.

Lin Yushuang knew in her heart that the old lady hated the ugly things she did back then, and she didn't even like her daughter.

She had served by the old lady's side, and knew quite well the old lady's temperament, and knew that the old lady had a noble temperament, and seemed arrogant and unapproachable, but on the inside she was a merciful and weak person.

Lin Yushuang firmly believes that although the old lady hates the house and Wu at the moment, as long as Mo Lan persistently goes to Shou'an Hall to serve, and then makes an apologetic and guilty appearance, the old lady will one day relent and accept her.

Mo Lan was enlightened by Lin Yushuang, and she also regrouped, returned to the old lady and continued to pretend to be a good girl, busy waiting.

After dragging on like this for several months, the old lady finally spoke and asked Minglan to come over who had just served in Shou'an Hall for three days.
