Some people patted the child's back, while others dug their hands into the child's mouth.

"How are you serving! If anything happens to the Third Young Master, you will not be able to survive!" Mrs. Wang's second wife was furious.

Lin Xirou was surprised.

He quickly walked over, pushed away the two girls who were slapping his back and picking at their mouths, and hugged the child from behind, squeezing his belly.

Mrs. Wang Er pushed Lin Xirou, "What are you doing? Let go of my son!"

"Let go of my mother! My mother is saving him!" Li Yu rushed over to pull Mrs. Wang.

Tian Erya guessed that Lin Xirou was really saving people, so she also stepped forward to pull Mrs. Wang.

But Mrs. Wang was like crazy, holding on to Lin Xirou and not letting go.

"If anything happens to my son, I want you to bury him with him!"

"Stop! She is a doctor, how can she harm your son?" The prefect's wife came over and called to the maids on her left and right, "Why don't you quickly pull the second lady away?"

Mrs. Wang Er said nothing and refused to let go.

While they were in a stalemate, Wang Shuan, who had been speechless just now, suddenly burst into tears.

"Mom——, wuwuwu——"

"The child is fine. He coughed up the core stuck in his throat." Lin Xirou breathed a sigh of relief and kicked the longan core on the ground. "The child is young. When eating, you must take good care of him. Don't follow him. Talk and laugh.”

Several girls and women lowered their heads in panic.

Mrs. Wang Er turned to hug her youngest son and cried excitedly, "Son, you scared me to death!"

"Stop crying, why don't you thank Mrs. Lin quickly? It's all thanks to her!" the prefect's wife said again.

Mrs. Wang Third and Mrs. Wang also smiled and said that Lin Xirou should be grateful for saving Mrs. Wang's child.

After being scolded by the sisters-in-law and others, Mrs. Wang had to say thank you to Lin Xirou.

Lin Xirou saved a situation from danger and even made herself owe a favor. How could Mrs. Wang feel so happy?

Seeing her perfunctory expression, Lin Xirou just said lightly, "Second Madam, you are so polite. As a doctor, I will help you."

"I invited Mrs. Lin and her son to visit the garden today. If you bring your children, let's visit the garden together." The prefect's wife, who was rarely willing to go out, nodded to the three sisters-in-law.

Everyone looked at Lin Xirou's son and found that he was a little boy who was just over three years old. He was dressed simply, and they secretly despised the son of a country woman. The prefect's wife actually specially invited him here?

And let some of their rich ladies accompany them?

However, due to their status as the prefect's wife, the other three wives of the Wang family did not dare to say anything and only said yes with a smile.

It is said to be a garden, but the adults are sitting around chatting while the children are playing under the red plum trees.

Mrs. Wang Er didn't want to owe Lin Xirou any favors, didn't want to be looked down upon by Lin Xirou, and wanted to use her son to regain her reputation.

She smiled and said, "Ms. Lin's son is so smart. Has he started studying?"

The children of the Wang family began to read at the age of two. By the age of three, they could already recite more than ten articles, write their own names and draw some simple pictures.

Lin Xirou, who came from the countryside, might not be able to teach her son this.

Lin Xirou said modestly, "He was young and the weather was cold, so I didn't let him go to school."

Li Shen, on the other hand, was restless and taught Li Yu every day.

Mrs. Wang Er smiled and said, "The children in our family have not read any serious books and only recognize a few words. I have an idea. How about letting them write some words and draw some pictures? It will save them running around. run."

She looked to the prefect's wife for advice.

The prefect's wife then asked Lin Xirou.

Lin Xirou was all right, "Okay." Li Yu is such a naughty kid and wants to climb a plum tree.

Tian Erya was pulling him anxiously to prevent him from crawling.

If you let him write or draw a picture, he will be quiet, right?
The other ladies knew that Mrs. Wang wanted her two sons to show their talents. They couldn't stop them, so they might as well watch the fun.

The prefect's wife asked the girls and women to open the table and bring them pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

The children all became excited when they heard that they were asked to compete in writing and drawing.

Because there will be rewards for winning the game, and this has always been the case.

The older children asked what the prize was.

The two girls were holding a small wooden deer and placed it on another table.

The prefect's wife pointed to the reward, "Whoever writes the best or draws the best, this wooden deer will be given to him."

This two-foot-tall deer was carved by a famous carver in the city and is lifelike.

The children of the Wang family have seen this wooden deer since they were young, and they all like this wooden deer.

Being able to receive such a reward will undoubtedly make other children envious.

So, everyone rubbed their fists to hold themselves up.

Li Yu, Mrs. Wang's second wife's youngest son Wang Shu'an, and Mrs. Wang's fourth wife's daughter are all close in age, only over three years old.

The three younger ones sat at a table, while the three girls took care of painting and writing.

The eldest son of Mrs. Wang's second wife and the two daughters of Mrs. Wang's third wife sat at another table.

"Xiaoyu, be serious, we can't lose." Tian Erya reminded him anxiously when he saw that Li Yu was neither painting nor writing, but stretching his neck to look at this and that.

"Just come, come." Li Yu waited until everyone started writing and drawing before he started to write.

With a tilt of his little head, Li Yu aimed at the wooden deer and began to draw.

After finishing the painting with a few strokes, Li Yu wrote on the painting the poem about deer treading on snowy plums that Li Shen taught him not long ago.

The characters can be read, but the drawings have too few lines and no color.

Tian Erya sighed in her heart when she found that the other children painted red and green, but only Li Yu's paintings were black and white, with just a few twists and turns.

It seems that Xiaoyushu lost.

What is this painting?

Lin Xirou does not know how to draw, but she has seen a lot of paintings in her past and present lives, and was influenced by Li Shen, so she knows what a good painting is.

Li Yu's paintings are freehand ink paintings. Although there are only a few strokes, they depict the deer running freely in the snowy plum forest.

Sure enough, amidst Tian Erya's worries, the prefect's wife pointed to Li Yu's painting and said, "This painting is the best. Although the calligraphy is average, he is young and is on par with Zhong An's. Overall, As far as I'm concerned, Madam Lin's son's paintings are the top priority." He then looked at the other ladies of the Wang family, "You don't have any objections, do you?"

Mrs. Wang’s third wife and Mrs. Wang’s fourth couldn’t stand Mrs. Wang’s recent pride in being a villain. They wanted to step on her and said one after another, “Sister-in-law is the daughter of a scholarly family, so she naturally has good opinions.”

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she suddenly turned black.

After losing to a woman from the country twice in a row, Mrs. Wang Er was no longer embarrassed to stay, so she made an excuse to say that she had something to do, and left in a hurry with her two sons.

Seeing that she was angry and gone, the prefect's wife felt better and arranged a banquet to entertain Lin Xirou and her son.

After playing until the afternoon, Lin Xirou and Li Yu left the back house of the prefect's house and returned to the rented house.

Li Yu got a reward today. As soon as he walked in, he happily called Li Shen, "Dad, look what treasure I got!"
