Chapter 541: Stay in Beijing
"What about Brother Tai, why can't they come over?"
Master Du asked appropriately, and Du Jingyi explained.
"The class hasn't finished yet, so the fourth aunt and cousin Zhao are waiting at home, and they will come back after class, otherwise if they miss class, the master will have to beat the palm."
"So harsh?"
"It's good to be strict, it's not that Daddy doesn't know that those leather monkeys are very difficult to discipline, and the brothers don't make trouble together, so naturally they have to find a strict master to control it."
Of course, Master Du feels sorry for his grandchildren, but he also knows that it is the time for such a big child to make rules and discipline well, otherwise it will be difficult to correct when he grows up, so he is also distressed, and his homework still has to be completed.
Subsequently, Du Jingyi did not forget to add.
"Brother Yun is still steady, and his studies are good, he went to class a few times, and the master also told me in private, saying that this child is a reading material, he can sit still, and he can learn to get in, so he is about like a brother-in-law."
Their children are praised by others, and parents are always happy, so Du Jingxiang and He Shilin looked at Brother Yun with a look of relief.
Brother Yun felt a little embarrassed, so he lowered his head and smiled lightly, and then didn't say anything more.
They were there, the atmosphere was lively, but it was still lacking, and when Tai Geer and his brothers came, the room seemed to have dozens of more people, chattering endlessly.
He Shilin probably didn't expect Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi's children to make such a fuss, so he was also shocked and watched the brothers play treasure for a while, teasing this and that.
In the end, he quietly said a word to Du Jingxiang.
"I thought that the children would be more like General Gu, and they also have a steady temper."
"Such older children, it would be embarrassing for them to be stable, but I see that Brother Ming'er's temperament is heavy, unlike Brother Wen'er, he is just a little troublemaker, my husband doesn't know, before you came, he was a top name in the circle of children in Sui'ancheng."
He Shilin nodded, convinced of Madame's words.
With them here, even Brother Yun has become a lot more lively, and He Shilin looked at the children's children's words, and his mood was better.
However, at the dinner table, the children's rules gave him a new understanding.
Don't look at a few of them making a fuss, but when the rules are right, they are not bad at all, He Shilin looked at it, and felt that in the end, it was a child who grew up in a noble family like the Gu family, and their He family was not comparable.
Therefore, the children are not inferior, but he has some self-pity first.
Du Jingxiang felt her husband's discomfort, so she appropriately served him food, and then smiled and comforted.
After the meal, Master Du said intimately.
"You're tired from a long journey, go back and rest first, and the children will play for a while and then send them back."
He Shilin was really uncomfortable, so he didn't be polite to them, got up and saluted and went back to Quxi Courtyard.
Du Jingxiang accompanied him, and the couple still had a lot of emotion when they returned to the main house of Quxi Courtyard.
"The last time I came, you were just pregnant, and now our children are a few years old, and the years are really unforgiving."
While Du Jingxiang was changing his clothes, he asked someone to release water and give him a bath later.
"Who says it's not, seeing that the children are getting older day by day, we are also getting old."
"Speaking of old age, I see that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are in good spirits, especially my mother-in-law, who has not changed over the years, and is still the same as before, but her temperament is milder, you see how many children she looks at, they are all soft."
"Yes, fortunately, their second elder's spirit is good, otherwise I, the daughter who married far away, will feel guilty, husband, you don't know, when I came back this time, I looked at the gray hair they gave birth, and I was very unhappy in my heart, after this time, I don't know when the next time I will see you."
Du Jingxiang said it sadly, and He Shilin sighed when he heard it.
"Don't say it's you, even I sometimes feel in a trance, but seeing that you are here this time, the mothers and sisters are much more relaxed than when they were in Pingzhou, especially the two children, I see that the relationship with Jingyi is very good."
"Tang Tang loves them, I can't wait to take off the moon in the sky and give it to them, naturally the relationship is very good."
"I look at it coldly, the children still have to live in a place like Sui'an City in order to practice some skills, you look at the small place in Pingzhou, I am afraid that the children will follow us and be wronged."
His words reminded Du Jingxiang of what his mother had done a day ago, so he stopped talking.
He Shilin saw it, so he patted the back of her hand and said.
"You and I have been married for many years, what else can't we say? What's wrong? ”
Du Jingxiang didn't hide it, and repeated what Mrs. Du said to her a few days ago, and after hearing this, He Shilin was silent.
He naturally knew that his mother-in-law was kind, and staying here was also the best choice for the children's future, but He Shilin was a little reluctant to let them leave home at such a young age, so he also sighed.
"It's all because the husband is not good, and he doesn't have the ability to be promoted, otherwise if he can come to Sui'an City to be an official like those colleagues, our children won't have to suffer from this parting."
Du Jingxiang knew that her husband had a heart disease, so she wouldn't joke with him about it, so she also comforted him softly.
"Don't think about it so much, if you are really the one who can drill the camp, I am afraid that the children will also follow you to learn badly, so there is nothing wrong with our family's duty, it's just what my mother said, I am indeed thinking about it, my husband doesn't know, Brother Yun has learned a lot of things in the General's Mansion these days, and the master in it can't be invited to Pingzhou even if he has a lot of money, so I think that if it is really for the future of the child, I am afraid that my mother's words will be true."
He Shilin didn't know how, but he couldn't get over this hurdle after all, so he waved his hand and said.
"Think about it again, when the birthday is over, let's talk about it again."
Seeing that Master Du's birthday was on these two days, there were many things at home, so Du Jingxiang didn't say more.
The couple was thinking about this, and Master Du and Mrs. Du were also idle.
While the children were playing, they talked to Du Jingyi again.
"Your brother-in-law looks very different from before this time, I always feel that people are not going well, and his luck is not good, you look at the way he talks and acts, there is a big difference between him and Shaoyu, I think, if there is a chance, our family will buy him a smaller official position in Sui'an City."
