The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 289: Reading at Night (1)
Unexpectedly, this was hit by Mrs. Xu. Qi Jiabao studied outside for two days, and he really wanted to live in the outer courtyard.Of course, there are other reasons for this, that is, Zhao Jing's nephew, Zhao Erhu, is here.

Neither of the two kids had much schooling, so Mr. Yan adopted another enlightenment model for them. He set up a screen in the middle of the school, and when he gave lectures to the two older ones, he let them play.After the two older ones have finished speaking, I will teach the younger ones, and I will not talk about some obscure and difficult ones. I will single out some easy-to-understand idioms and stories of filial piety, and the two children will be very interested in hearing them.

Qi Jiabao had a companion all of a sudden, and immediately became alive as if he could go to heaven and earth. Although he was still naughty, he looked more like a boy.Zhao Erhu is another naughty kid in the market place, he was cautious when he came to the Hou's mansion, and he got acquainted with Qi Jiabao within two or three days. Hollowed out.

The old lady Xu heard that Qi Jiabao was going to live in the outer courtyard, but the boss was not happy, so she put down the half-drinked mung bean soup, frowned and said, "Brother Bao, are you serious? You only went to the outer courtyard for a few days to study , just thinking about going out? You go out, and if you want to come back again, the Songhe Hall of the ancestors will not keep you."

Qi Jiabao was not intimidated after hearing this, and he was not still clinging to the old lady's body like in the past. He kicked his calf and sat on the armchair, and said with his calf: "Don't scare me, old ancestor, Mr. , men and women cannot sit together at the age of seven, and I am now six years old, the shortest is half a year, the longest is a year, and I have to move out from my ancestors."

Even Zhao Jing felt a little amazing after hearing his words, which shows Mr. Yan's brainwashing skills.In order for a student to study hard for more than ten years, in addition to the temptation of fame, he also needs to be deeply influenced. Obviously, Mr. Yan, as a generation of famous teachers, has achieved this.

Zhao Jing smiled and said: "Since Brother Bao said so, let's live out. There are many houses outside, so let's live with Brother Hong." Fang lived in a small courtyard in the back street of the Hou Mansion, and usually he would go back to live in five out of three days.

The ages of these children are not much different, exactly two years old, but Brother Bao is a little younger now, Zhao Jing is actually a little worried, so she continued: "I will let your nanny go with you, and everyone else will go with you. There are two servants and two maidservants for you."

Xu Si'an didn't have a maid to serve her at that time, but Zhao Jing felt that it was okay to have a maid. It was easier for a maid to serve tea and water than a servant. , if they really let them go outside, Zhao Jing wouldn't feel at ease without a servant girl watching.

Mrs. Xu immediately got excited after hearing this, and she just kept busy saying: "Then...then give my Yingchun to Brother Bao, that maid is old and careful, and she usually takes care of Brother Bao. the most."

In the past two days, Zhao Jing has ordered people to buy a lot of maids and servants to come in, and there are older maids from the family who have children to take care of them, and now each courtyard is fully staffed.The twins have always lived in the old lady's Songhetang, so they didn't have a separate maid, but each of them has a nanny and two little maids who help the nanny.It's just that now that Qi Jiabao is going out to live, the nanny will naturally follow, but the little maid will follow the nanny, the old lady must be worried.

Zhao Jing lowered her eyebrows and thought for a while, then nodded in response.It's just a good choice for the little girl's maid, but it's hard for Zhao Jing to make up her own mind about the maid for the young master Feng Wei.

In the past two days, Xu Si'an has also become busy, going out early and returning late. After Zhao Jing served Mrs. Xu and had dinner, the heat outside has not yet dropped.The maid came back and said that Xu Si'an had returned to the Hou Mansion and was in the study in the outer courtyard.Zhao Jing ordered someone to bring dinner over, and she also went outside to the study.

Xu Si'an has been leading troops to fight for these years, but he knows little about the military equipment of the capital. Now the [-] troops are still in the south of the Yangtze River to suppress bandits, and the entire capital is almost empty.There are still [-] soldiers at the border between the border and the Tatars. After a big defeat, the Tartars have no strength left to fight back. If the troops in the imperial court are concentrated, there are still more than [-] soldiers.If it weren't for the remaining evils in the south, Dayong would be in a stable situation for the time being.

Zhao Jing is not keen on these major national affairs. Although she has been to modern times and knows things that she does not know, but now she is still in this era and has become a little woman in a boudoir. It has nothing to do with himself.

The dinner was already prepared on the waist round table next time, Xu Si'an looked up and saw Zhao Jing was setting the dinner, she was used to doing such things in the palace before, she looked so skillful and elegant.

Xu Si'an stood up from the desk and asked her, "Is there any wine?"
