Anren Street.

A house.

There is usually no one living here, but there is a gatehouse and a sprinkler sweeper, and the yard and the house are quite clean and tidy.

Qin Shu naturally didn't dislike it, so she slept here that night.

Today is Qin Wentao's 40th birthday.

The family got up early, but when they first arrived, they couldn't eat breakfast.

Just as Qin Shu was about to go out to buy breakfast, Xiaolan approached from outside, carrying a wooden barrel in her hand.

"Sister Shu, my aunt sent someone over early in the morning and asked me to go to Fanglan Garden to get breakfast."

Xiaolan smiled and lifted the wooden barrel, and after opening it, a smell of rice filled the air.

"Okay, I don't have to buy it, just eat these."

Qin Shu and Xiaolan put breakfast on the table one by one, and everyone came over after washing up and smelling the fragrance.

Shin Shin climbed onto the stool herself, looked at the food on the table, and clapped her hands with joy.

Ze'er also stared at the food with bright eyes.

The breakfast in Qinfu is indeed much more exquisite and delicious than the one at home.

At the end of the meal, everyone was full.

Xiaolan and Qin Shu repacked the dishes and chopsticks, put them in wooden barrels, and sent them to the kitchen of Fang Lan Yuan to wash the servants.

Wang, Zhou Cun and the two children sat in the living room of Fang Lan Yuan, chatting with Aunt Gao.

Aunt Gao loves flowers, and Fang Lan Garden is full of all kinds of flowers and potted plants.

Wang felt as if he was in a sea of flowers, but these flowers were so delicate and bright, even the aunt Gao sitting in front of him was still charming, her face was like a peach blossom, only she was old and decrepit, and she was incompatible with the surrounding environment, and she was a little inferior.

Aunt Gao asked the mother-in-law who was waiting around her to make tea and take out snacks to entertain her mother-in-law and son-in-law, grandson and granddaughter.

Aunt Gao first greeted Wang: "Mother-in-law, how are you doing lately?" ”

Wang smiled: "It's all good." ”

Seeing that Wang was looking at the flowers around him, he said: "I love these flowers and grasses, they look fresh and beautiful, and every time I am in a bad mood, I feel a lot better when I see them." If my mother likes it, she will take a few pots back and plant them......"

Wang hurriedly excused himself and said: "There are also wild flowers on the roadside at home, and I can see them from time to time, so I don't have to worry about my parents." ”

The two chatted and chatted, and there was nothing to say, and for a while, the scene was a little awkward.

Aunt Gao turned to the imperial examination and asked Zhou Cun when he would take the examination again, and praised Zhou Cun again, saying that he would be able to pass the examination sooner or later......

Zhou Cun also answered one by one, but did not say much.

Aunt Gao was completely speechless now.

"Come, Xinxin, Ze'er, let my grandmother take a look." Aunt Gao saw the two little ones snuggling up to Wang's side, their immature little faces were full of seriousness, staring at herself and the maid, and couldn't help but laugh and tease them.

Xinxin didn't know why, and subconsciously looked at Wang and Zhou Cun.

Zhou Cun said encouragingly: "Go ahead." ”

Wang also nodded.

So Xinxin took her brother's hand and slowly walked to Aunt Gao together.

"It's really a dragon and phoenix fetus, it looks exactly the same! Look at the two little ones, it's so beautiful! Aunt Gao looked at a baby like a baby, smiling from ear to ear, touching the fleshy faces of the two children, and her heart was about to melt.

Xinxin and Ze'er were embarrassed by the praise, and their faces were red.

"Would it be nice to let my grandmother hug me?" Aunt Gao asked softly.

Shin Shin looked back at the two adults.

Ze'er stared at Aunt Gao curiously, not knowing what she was thinking.

After receiving the answers from Wang and Zhou Cun, Xinxin said "um" in a milky voice and nodded.

Ze'er also nodded.

Aunt Gao carefully and gently hugged the two children, feeling the heat and softness from the two small bodies, and her heart was full of tenderness.

Sensing the nervousness of the two little people, Aunt Gao grabbed a few rock candies from the plate and teased them with a smile: "Grandma scream, give you candy to eat." ”

The two little ones had never seen rock candy, and they were both staring curiously at the transparent crystal in Aunt Gao's hand.

The two little ones had only seen other big children eat brown sugar, it was the kind of red congealed irregular lumps, and those big children kindly gave them a little bit, and the sweet taste was delicious. I still remember it.

Is rock sugar that sweet too?

At this time, Qin Shu and Xiaolan came back from the kitchen and saw Aunt Gao teasing the two of them with rock candy, so they said, "Xin Xin Ze'er, call grandmother quickly." ”

The two little ones said in unison: "Grandmother." ”

"Hey!" Gao Fanglan's eyes were red, but she shook her head and said: "In the future, when there are no outsiders, it will be called like this, if there are outsiders, it can't be called like this." ”

As he spoke, he wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and continued to advise: "Also, when I see the Tang family in the future, I can only call her a grandmother, don't call me like that." ”

Xinxin asked, "Grandmother, who is the Tang family?" ”

Gao Fanglan explained: "The Tang family is your grandfather's wife, and your aunt is just a concubine, and you will understand when you grow up." ”

Xinxin saw that Gao Fanglan's tears couldn't be stopped, and stepped forward to wipe her tears with her little hands, and the little milk voice was cute: "Grandmother, don't cry." ”

She didn't understand why her grandmother was crying, but her grandmother was so sad.

Gao Fanglan burst into tears and laughed, hugged Xinxin and kissed her little face lovingly.

"Good boy, good boy."

Gao Fanglan raised her head and said to the Wang family and Zhou Cun: "Let the mother-in-law and son-in-law smile, I have to sort it out, so I will be out of company first, you can just feel free." With that, he got up and went to the inner room.

Xinxin and Ze'er had rock candy in their mouths, and they only felt that this was the best thing in the world, and it was even better than the brown sugar they had tasted before!

Xinxin smiled and said, "Mother, my grandmother's rock candy is so sweet!" ”

Ze'er also agreed with Yinghe and said: "It's delicious! ”

Qin Shu looked at their little appearance and said with a smile: "Oh, there are many things here that are better than rock candy!" ”

"Ahem!" At this time, Zhou Cun suddenly coughed and stopped Qin Shu from continuing.

Qin Shu looked at him, only to see him signaling himself with his eyes, don't say more.

Qin Shu smiled and didn't say anything.

Soon, Aunt Gao came out of the room.

She washed her face again, applied powder, and her face was radiant again.

As soon as he walked out, the momentum changed, and the smile on his face was full of energy, which was completely different from the sad appearance just now.

"It's almost time, let's go to the main room together, at this time, maybe the guests have come!"

He said to Qin Shu and Zhou Cun again: "Shu'er, Brother Mao, it stands to reason that when you go back to the Qin Mansion, you should go to the main room to meet you first, and while it's still early, go and see each other, you can't be rude." ”

Qin Shu and Zhou Cun both nodded and said yes.

Although they are not very willing to recognize a strange woman, they can follow the customs of the locals, and they can see them if they don't want to.

Qin Shu and Zhou Xun subconsciously glanced at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
