The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 285: The Cicada (1)
In fact, Zhao Jing was also troubled by this matter. She used to be a lady from the Hou Mansion, she could be strict or kind, but she could handle it properly.Now that she has become Qi Jiabao's aunt, she already has a temperament that likes children, but she can't bear to discipline her for a while.

It's just that Xu Si'an was right to be worried. After all, Brother Bao was a boy. He had been with Mrs. Xu before, surrounded by nurses and servant girls, and sisters and sisters. There was no sign of a man. He is so young now It can already be seen that she is spoiled, if she can't change it when she grows up, then she will really be useless.

General Qi fought bloody battles on the battlefield. He is a tough man. In the future, his son will become a dude. Others will only say that the Marquis of Wu'an raised him and abolished him.

Zhao Jing was thinking about this all the way back to Songhe Hall, the old lady is also a real treasure, not to mention that there was a custom of patriarchy in ancient times, but it was not patriarchal, among the bunch of girls There is only this one boy around, and it is indispensable and the most beloved.

When the weather outside was hot, Songhe Hall had put ice in the cellar early, and when Zhao Jing entered the door, she saw Mrs. Xu playing rope with the twins in the second room.The old lady was just having fun with them, there was nothing serious about it, when she saw Zhao Jing coming in, she stretched her neck to look at her, and didn't care about the red string on her hand, who knew that as soon as she loosened her fingers, they all fell apart!Brother Bao shouted anxiously over there: "Old ancestor, you made a mistake again! You have to use your little finger to hook it up! No, no!"

Zhao Jing saw that his little face was flushed red, and tears were rolling in his eyes, so the old lady Xu turned around, reached out and stroked Brother Bao's head and said, "Okay, the old ancestor has something to do. I won't play with you anymore, it's the same if you play with your sister, or with a girl!"

Hearing this, Brother Bao turned his head away from Mrs. Xu's palm, pouted and went to find the nanny.Zhao Jing finally sighed after reading it. Little boys are indeed more difficult to discipline than girls. For example, last time she told a story about Snow White, Qi Jiahui was just curious, and he would think of ways to catch mice.

"Mother." Zhao Jing went to the edge of the kang to help the old lady stand up, and the two sat down in the middle hall.Xu Xian and Qi Xinrui have already left. Xu Xian didn't know how to make fun of Mrs. Xu. As for Qi Xinrui, Zhao Jing hasn't figured out her character yet, so she has to check for a while.

"Is he angry with me again?" The old lady sat down, raised her eyelids and asked Zhao Jing, holding the teacup in her hand but never drinking it.

Zhao Jing lowered her head and smiled and said, "Master Hou is so filial, how could he be angry with his mother?"

"I know him, he didn't dare to get angry with me, so he sulked alone, right?" The old lady was quite smart in this matter, she lowered her head and took a sip of tea and said, "He has the same temper as his old man."

Zhao Jing just pursed her lips and smiled, and after a while, after the old lady drank tea, she said lightly: "Mother actually understands in her heart that Brother Bao can't be pampered like this all the time, he is the only incense in the Qi family In the future, if he becomes a talent, everyone will be happy. If he lives a mediocre life like this, it will not be a bad thing. With Lord Hou covering him, he will marry a wife and have children in the future, and he will definitely not be so bad..."

Zhao Jing said that she only paused for a moment, and raised her eyes to see the nanny followed Qi Jiabao out of the yard. The weather is hot now, and the cicadas shouted outside, and he probably went to dig out the cicadas again.Zhao Jing didn't stop her either, but continued: "But if he lives like this for the rest of his life, who can his children and grandchildren count on in the future? After all, one generation will not be as good as the next generation."

Mrs. Xu frowned when she heard this. She lived such a good life, but it was all thanks to the old master's hard work. Now Xu Si'an is also promising. It didn't fall from the sky, it was caused by the men of the Xu family risking their lives.She leaned forward to look at Qi Jiabao's back, frowned and said, "You are here to be this lobbyist too, I know you are husband and wife now, and you only want to get Brother Bao away from me with one heart. Let's get down to it today, when you give birth to the younger one, I will let the older one out, anyway, it will only be a year or so, and he is only five years old now, so he can afford to wait! "

As soon as Zhao Jing heard this, she was completely at a loss. Reasonable people were most afraid of meeting such a random player. If she couldn't give birth, wouldn't it be that she delayed Brother Bao's success?But the old lady said so, Zhao Jing really couldn't think of a reason to reply for a while, it was really a scholar who met a soldier, and she couldn't explain why.

"Mother, you..." As a new daughter-in-law, she couldn't say that she didn't want to have a baby, so everything she said was wrong.

Seeing that she couldn't answer, Mrs. Xu smiled narrowly, took her hand and said, "If you really love Brother Bao, then work harder with Lord Hou. I'm still waiting for you here." Woolen cloth!"

Zhao Jing blushed when Mrs. Xu said it. Thinking of Xu Si'an's hard work day and night these days, she is still weak now, and she became more and more speechless, so she chatted with the old lady for a few more words and pushed Said that there was something else going on outside and then left again.
