My own father was the head of the dynasty v. 59
She is very glad that Sister Peng has been used to it since she was a child, and she generally doesn't recognize a person, anyone can take it, as long as she stutters.
When Huai'an returned from the palace, he found that the courtyard wall leading to the next door had been opened.
The mother and eldest brother walked around the courtyards and pointed out to the craftsmen what needed to be improved.
The moon had a new stable, big and sturdy, and as soon as Huai'an passed, he saw Sister Peng playing in the stable by herself, stepping on the stool and fiddling with the moon's white mane. He was shocked into a cold sweat, and the baby who was not as tall as a horse's legs, what should he do if he was kicked?
But the moon was obviously very measured, and her mane was tied into a broom shape by colorful ribbons, but she didn't even dare to snort, for fear of startling the little master to fall off the stool, and she couldn't tell.
Huai'an giggled, this time he really became a sunny rainbow little white horse!
Seeing this, Huai'an hurriedly hugged his sister down, carried it on his shoulders, and looked around for someone to take her.
Li Huan came back with them, Aunt Li was cooking next door, and her mother and brother were busy, so only Linglong was left.
Linglong actually sat on the stone bench and fell asleep, and when she saw Huai'an holding Sister Peng'er, she woke up suddenly, and stumbled and said, "Brother An...... I, I ......"
"Sister Linglong," Huai'an was a little angry, "you are too careless, Peng'er has run to the stable!" โ
At this time, Xu Tinglan came into the courtyard, and Linglong knelt on the ground: "Mrs., Mrs...... It's that I didn't pay attention and dozed off. โ
In front of outsiders, Xu Tinglan did not have a seizure: "You get up first, and then talk about it when you go back." โ
Xu Tinglan turned Sister Peng from her son's hands, and Sister Peng was still clapping her hands, shouting in her mouth: "Moon Brew, Moon Brew!" โ
The "Sunshine Rainbow Little White Horse" silently turned around, and the horse's face sighed at the corner.

The hall was setting the meal, Huaiming was teaching his sister to read, and Huai'an was talking to his father about the feasibility of planting fruits and vegetables in winter, and they unconsciously kept their voices to a minimum, because Xu Tinglan was dealing with Linglong's affairs in the inner room.
Shen Yu meant to send her back to her hometown and take care of the house with a small servant, while Xu Tinglan took Linglong to the house and talked behind closed doors.
In fact, her anger is not small, knocking on the kang table: "You weren't like this before, where have you been spending your mind lately?" Forget it if you are confused when you are in charge of the accounts, dare to be careless about Sister Peng, how tall is the baby, how can it be kicked off? โ
Linglong cried in a low voice.
She is not young, she has been serving with their husband and wife since a few years ago, if she doesn't carry it into a room, when the people from her hometown move in, she will be put in the front yard with a small servant. In fact, she has a good appearance, but no matter how diligent she is to Shen Yu, it has no effect.
She is anxious to sleep all night, and it is not that she is willing to be a concubine with others, since she is already a slave and a maid, she really doesn't want to be a servant, give birth to a group of children and continue to be a slave, she hopes not to have children, if she has to give birth, she must be like the eldest young master, Brother An, Sister Peng, at least not too much, can study, can take the imperial examination, can marry a serious person to be a lady in the main house......
"What are you crying about? Did I wronged you? Xu Tinglan asked.
Linglong shook her head vigorously and choked up: "Please don't send the slave back to your hometown, even if you send it back, don't match the little girl." Linglong only wants to serve the good lord's family in this life, and does not want a husband and children. โ
Xu Tinglan's experience is much more wonderful than that of ordinary women, and she has never heard of anyone shouting that she will not marry for the rest of her life.
"Wouldn't it be good to find a husband and support each other?" Xu Tinglan asked.
Linglong shook her head: "It's not good, it's not good!" Madam, you are gracious, you just sell me to a brothel in a green house, and don't let me have children with a little girl. โ
When Shen Yu heard this outside, he immediately kicked the three children out to play.
Huai'an was talking about the key point, and he didn't pay attention to what Linglong was saying, but just took a pen and paper to write and draw in front of his father's eyes: "Dad, we just finished talking about the temperature of the shed, and now we are talking about fertilizer, we plan to send someone to collect the dung, but I also asked clearly, the manure can't be watered directly, it needs to be watered and humidified, and fully fermented, so ......"
Shen Yu covered his aching head and waved his hand at his eldest son.
Huaiming stepped forward and took his younger brother out directly.
Chapter 63
"You say this, as if I have delayed you. You are literate and hyphenated, and you have a good look, and you change to a different housewife, I'm afraid that you will already win the favor of the lord, carry the house and carry the aunt, and have several children, right? โ
Xu Tinglan was tepid, Shen Yu was like a man, and regretted blowing the children out...... I simply went to the yard to continue listening to my son's talk about growing vegetables.
As a result, the three children went to the new garden next door to "explore", and Shen Yu stood in the courtyard for a while, and reluctantly returned to the hall and continued to drink tea.
Linglong shook her head busily: "No, no...... Madam, Linglong didn't dare to think so! Linglong is in the capital all the year round, watching the old lady love โกโก harmony, and watching the young master grow up carefree...... Linglong knows that she is not worthy, but since she has signed the death contract, I ...... I only want to end it on myself, I don't want to be a slave and a maid when I have children and daughters, and I beg my wife to be fulfilled. โ
Xu Tinglan knew in his heart, Linglong was a girl they bought in the capital when her husband was a junior high, and she had read some books, and her father was a poor talent who liked to gamble, and sold her to pay off gambling debts. Xu Tinglan was very impressed, and when he signed the death deed, Xiucai kept saying that for the sake of his daughter, he would choose a white family to be a girl.
At that time, Linglong, dexterous and capable, simple-minded, the couple treated her as a child, and never treated her harshly in clothing and diet.
The small gate and small courtyard in the capital, after all, are not as many rules as in their hometown, and they have been scattered for a long time, and they are more arrogant and willful than the subordinates in their hometown. There is nothing wrong with thinking about your future, but it has affected Sister Peng, which is unacceptable to Xu Tinglan as a mother.
โฆโฆ
Linglong was fined two months of monthly money, but she was still dedicated to her in the past, but she still stayed.
It's just that some thoughts can't be suppressed once there are signs, and Shen Yu has no intention of taking concubines and concubines, so they can't stay in this courtyard anymore. As for where to go, Xu Tinglan has to think again.
After the meal was set up in the hall, Li Huan's daughter-in-law called back the three children to eat, and Xu Tinglan had to put the matter aside for the time being.
Sister Peng doesn't eat vegetables today, only meat and white rice, Xu Tinglan glared and said, "Don't be picky." โ
Sister Peng pointed to a plate of garlic and said, "Poop poured it." โ
All:......
"It's washed." Li Huan's daughter-in-law coaxed her.
Sister Peng shook her head: "It's still poop." โ
Xu Tinglan Nahan said: "This kid, who to listen to." โ
Huai'an knew that his sister understood his words, and hurriedly explained to her: "The vegetables are fried in hot oil, which can eliminate dirty things, and they are very clean." โ
Sister Peng shook her head again: "Clean poop is also poop." โ
All:......
No matter how much I persuaded her, it still didn't work, so I could only hope that the child would forget about it and forget about it.

When night fell, the husband and wife went back to the house and closed the door, and then they talked about Linglong again.
"Strong match and resentful couple, just afraid of burying hidden dangers, don't marry if you don't want to marry, she is literate and hyphenated, first put it in the shop to help, and then make other arrangements when she moves into the new house, do you think it's good?" Xu Tinglan asked.
"Listen to the lady." Shen Yu was reading a book, and the book that had just been confiscated from Rong He was quite interesting. The main reason is that he doesn't want to get too involved in the family's employment arrangements, especially if he has such an "upward heart", he doesn't dare to say more.
Anyway, his attitude is known to his wife. Although he did not have a father of virtue and ability as an example, he had a simple and effective rule - if he disdained everything that his father loved to do, there would be no problems in his personal morality.
"I still want to ......" Xu Tinglan hesitated: "Let's open the ready-to-wear store slowly, or simply go out." โ
Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, and put down the script: "Why?" โ
"The two children are still too young, one is about to become a savage, and the other is running around the ground, today this is not all to blame, she herself is not very old, she takes a child every day, and helps Li Huan's daughter-in-law make the bed and fold the quilt and laundry, and she is really too busy...... The mother wrote to say that she hoped to come to the capital again after the autumn of next year, and she was worried about Huai Ming Qiuqiu, afraid that when he returned to his hometown next year for the exam, there would be no one in his hometown and he would not be able to take care of him. โ
Shen Yu groaned: "You're right, there is indeed a shortage of manpower at home, so I'll resign and take them at home." โ
Xu Tinglan saw that he was serious, and immediately punched him: "You are crazy!" โ
Shen Yu sneered and said: "Am I crazy or are you crazy, the ready-to-wear store is your brainchild, and if you say it's going out, you'll go out?" โ
Xu Tinglan said helplessly: "Then what do you say?" โ
Shen Yu said: "Let's hire another nurse for Sister Peng, I will ask Li Huan to go back to his hometown in the past two days, so that his mother and younger siblings can leave as soon as possible, and the family can spend the New Year together." โ
"That'...... What should I do when I am nostalgic for autumn? Xu Tinglan asked.
"Such a big child, let two more people accompany you, the guest house."
โฆโฆ
In the west wing, Shen Huaiming, who was accompanied by his father to do his homework, sneezed, and the flame of the candle jumped twice, and the light and shadow swayed all over the room.
"Big brother, you also have a cold?" Huai'an said: "If you want to drink more hot water, I'll pour it for you." โ
Huai Ming pushed him back into the chair and said, "Please, young master." It's been an hour, either drink water or relieve your hands, finish your homework and go to bed, don't you have to get up early tomorrow to clean the stables? โ
Huai'an sat back in disdain.
After a moment, Huai'an remembered something again, and asked Huaiming with a pair of big eyes: "Big brother, I heard that there are four ways to write 'fennel' in fennel beans, do you know which four?" โ
Huai Ming took a long breath: Is this his brother? This is an obstacle on his smooth life!
He said weakly, "If you can finish your homework in half an hour, I can write you five." โ
Huai'an exclaimed: "It's too rolly! โ
Huaiming took the opportunity to tell him several allusions such as the snow in the bag, the wall was chiseled to steal the light, and the porridge was drawn to satisfy hunger, which was intended to inspire him that reading does not rely on talent, but on hard work.
Huai'an was very motivated and vowed that he must study hard and become a knowledgeable person like his father!
Half an hour later, Huaiming took a knife of delicate white rice paper and knocked on his father's door.
Xu Tinglan hadn't slept yet, he heard that he was the eldest son, so he hurriedly called him in.
Huai Ming looked at his father deeply: "Father, such a good paper, my son usually can't use it, you take it back, Huai'an's homework son is really powerless, you bother more." โ
After speaking, without waiting for Shen Yu to react, he threw down the rice paper and ran, bringing a gust of wind, and the broken hair on Xu Tinglan's sideburns flew up.
Shen Yu was stunned, only felt a chill on the back of his neck, and then met his wife's angry gaze: "Huaiming is so nervous about studying, you asked him to accompany Huai'an to do his homework?" And bribe him with something? โ
Before she finished speaking, she looked at the good Sheng Xuan on the table and looked a little familiar, and said angrily: "This was originally bought for him, how are you, you ......"
Shen Yu was blasted out of the bedroom with a smile on his face and went to watch his son do his homework.
โฆโฆ
The rooster crows at dawn, and a ray of morning light tears through the twilight.
At this time, Shen Yu was already standing in front of Taihemen, and Huaiming had already gone to the school with breakfast.
Li Huan's daughter-in-law went to the West House to wake Huai'an up as usual, he had a lot of things to do in the morning, go to the stable to feed the moon, wash and eat, play tricks with his mother, and accidentally make some noise to wake up the sleeping Sister Peng......
At this time, Shen Yu was almost in court, and then ran out of the door amid Sister Peng's cry and the sound of her mother rushing out like a dog with a disgusted face.
Today is an exception, Huai'an is not in bed, Li Huan's daughter-in-law was about to go out to look for it, when she bumped into Huai'an, who was already dressed and shodied, and came back from outside.
I used to have a hard time getting up, but why are I so diligent today.
Seeing that his shoes and trousers were stained with dirt and hay, he must have gone to the stables.
"Brother An'er is so well-behaved today, I'll get up by myself!" Li Huan's daughter-in-law boasted violently, and at the same time took out a new set of jacket pants from the wardrobe and put it on Huai'an, not surprisingly, it was also plush piping......
"Aunt Li, when are you going to make me a black dress?" Huai'an asked.
