"You haven't come out yet!" With Xu Minghao shouting, two black shadows quickly rushed through the encirclement of the little beggars, protecting Xu Minghao and Xu Mingxuan behind him.

The two men in black who suddenly appeared didn't say a word, but the group of little beggars trembled all over their bodies by their staring, they were already more sensitive to "danger" than ordinary people.

"Run!" Seeing that his gang was no match for the two men in black, the black boy shouted in fear, and the little beggars scattered and fled.

Xu Minghao and Xu Mingxuan didn't let the secret guards chase them, but ran into the deserted house to find Xiaohuzi's figure, but after looking around, they only found a sick little beggar hiding in the grass and trembling with fear, and just shook his head when he asked him anything.

Xu Minghao took out two buns from the cloth bag and threw them to him, and then went to look for Xiaohuzi somewhere else, but he didn't find them until it was dark, so he had to take the cold buns and Xu Mingxuan back home.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Xu Junze sitting in the room, as if they had been waiting for them for a long time, and the two of them shouted with a little weakness: "Father! ”

Xu Junze glanced at them coldly, this look made the two of them quickly lower their heads, and they heard Xu Junze say majestically: "Starting tomorrow, practice martial arts for two more hours, and in the future, you can't go out without my permission!" ”

"But-" Xu Minghao raised his head to defend himself, the whereabouts of his good friend Xiaohuzi have not been found.

Xu Junze ignored the eagerness in his eyes, stood up and looked at him deeply, and his undoubted look made Xu Minghao bow his head aggrievedly.

When Lin Shuran went to see Xu Mingye the next day, he heard that Xu Mingchen and their schoolwork had increased, and Xu Junze invited them to a powerful master who taught martial arts, and ordered them not to go out again.

After asking, I found out that Xu Minghao sneaked out of the house again yesterday, although he didn't cause any trouble, Xu Junze seemed to be very angry this time, and he was punished with everyone.

Lin Shuran thought that the punishment of the children had something to do with her, the housemother, but she didn't know that Xu Minghao and Xu Mingxuan sneaked out again, in case they encountered something dangerous outside, she would not be able to escape the blame.

"Mother, it's not good, my father is going to beat the seventh brother!" As soon as Lin Shuran returned to his yard from Xu Mingye's residence, Xu Mingsong's small body collided with him, and it was slippery and difficult to walk along the way, he fell down twice, and his body was covered with slush.

Lin Shuran hurriedly beat him with dirty mud on his body, and asked puzzledly, "Why did your father beat the seventh child?" ”

Didn't Xu Junze love his stepsons the most? Usually someone bullied Xu Minghao and them, he protected them openly and secretly, and if they caused a big disaster, he would also carry it, why did he have to do it himself today? !

"Brother Seven, he wanted to sneak out again, but his father found out and said that he was going to break his leg so that he couldn't run around!" Obviously, Xu Mingsong was frightened by Xu Junze's words, worried that Xu Minghao would really break his legs.

"Don't worry, your father is just scaring you, let's go, let's go see!" Lin Shuran took Xu Mingsong's hand and walked briskly towards the front yard.

When I arrived in the front yard, I saw a bench in the middle of the yard, Xu Minghao's small body was stubborn and pitiful lying on it, Xu Mingchen and they were all kneeling neatly in the snow, and the big housekeeper Xu An was holding a stick and couldn't beat it with an embarrassed face.

"Madame, you're here!" Seeing Lin Shuran, Xu An was like seeing a savior, and hurriedly put down the stick to salute and greet him, Xu Mingchen and they all looked at Lin Shuran in unison, looking at her with a pleading face, hoping that she could save Xu Minghao.

But Xu Minghao felt a little embarrassed, and twisted his head to the other side, he didn't want Lin Shuran to look at him as a joke, just beat him, anyway, no one in this world really felt sorry for him, thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"Where's the general?" Lin Shuran didn't expect Xu Junze to be serious, now that the weather is so cold, these children are easy to get sick when they are frozen outside, they are not those soldiers under him.

"In the study!" Xu An glanced at the direction of Xu Junze's study, and then Lin Shuran handed Xu Mingsong to him, "Take care of the young masters, this stick is not allowed to move until I come out!" ”

"Slave understands!" The general's orders must be listened to, and the orders of the master's mother must not be disobeyed, Xu An decided to listen to Lin Shuran first, anyway, the general will not really be willing to break the seventh young master's leg.

Lin Shuran knocked on the door of the study, and Xu Junze's voice came from inside: "What's the matter?" ”

"It's me!" Lin Shuran tried her best to stabilize her voice, in fact, every time she got along with Xu Junze face-to-face, she had to have strong determination and courage, this man was imposing and killed too much, she had to try to make herself appear calm in front of him.

Xu Junze is a person who practices martial arts, and his ear power is amazing since he was a child, he has heard Lin Shuran's voice a long time ago, he thought she wouldn't care, but she still came.

"Come in!"

"Squeak", Lin Shuran pushed the door and walked in, and closed the door with her backhand after entering the door, there are some things she wants to explain to Xu Junze alone today.

Xu Junze sat behind the bookcase, on which there were either military books or maps, and there were all kinds of books on the bookshelf next to him, and a sword hanging on the weapon shelf.

"Intercession?" As if he was sure of Lin Shuran's purpose, Xu Junze raised his eyes to look at her.

The man's eyes were oppressive, but Lin Shuran still bravely met them, and then shook his head and said, "No! ”

Then she said under Xu Junze's surprised look: "Leave them to me!" ”

Xu Junze's face changed slightly, obviously he didn't expect Lin Shuran to say this, he twisted his eyebrows and said in a seemingly unkind tone: "I remember telling you that they have nothing to do with you!" ”

Lin Shuran took a deep breath to embolden himself, looked directly at his cold gaze, his eyes were clear and frank, and he said in a firm tone: "If I didn't marry you, they have nothing to do with me, since I am already your wife and their mother, then everything in this mansion has something to do with me, not that you say it has nothing to do with it." ”

Seeing that Xu Junze just listened and didn't refute out loud, Lin Shuran continued: "It is the responsibility of parents to raise their children, as a father, I will not ask how you educate them, but as their mother, I also have the responsibility and obligation to educate them, you have given me the power to take charge of the family, but I don't even know that they slipped out, it is my dereliction of duty, if you want to punish this matter, you should also punish me first, after all, 'the son does not teach the mother's fault, and the son does not change the father's fault'." ”

The second half of this sentence was added by Lin Shuran himself, somewhat with a little resentment towards Xu Junze, a "cheap father", if he had taught the children of the Xu family well from the beginning, he would not have developed their temperament of not being afraid of heaven and earth, and now the courage that he is used to is afraid that it will not be easy to correct for a while.

His fault?! Xu Junze's face turned two points cold, and he slowly stood up from behind the bookcase, this little woman was really bold to speak!
