The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 354 Thunder is God’s Punishment of Bad People (2)
Because Qi Jiahui was hungry, Zhao Jing asked the nanny to serve her dinner first. The little girl was playing rope with the little maid on the kang inside, and when she heard the sound of thunder, she also hurried out and went to Zhao Jing in front of.

Zhao Jing wrapped her in her arms, patted her on the back to comfort her, the little girl raised her head to look at Qi Xinrui, and asked, "Auntie, are you afraid of thunder?"

Qi Xinrui felt a little embarrassed at this time. Although she was more than ten years younger than Zhao Jing, there was nothing wrong with saying that she was Zhao Jing's junior, but she was an out-and-out elder in front of Qi Jiahui. When the girl asked like this, she felt somewhat embarrassed.

Qi Xinrui lowered her head and said, "My aunt was very scared when she was a child, but now that she's grown up, she's not afraid anymore."

After hearing this, Qi Jiahui comforted Qi Xinrui and said, "Auntie, don't be afraid. I heard that thunder is God's punishment for bad people. Auntie is a good person, so don't be afraid of thunder." The little girl was serious when she spoke, which made Zhao Jing laugh , just took her little hand and said: "Sister Hui is right, we are good people, and we don't have to be afraid of thunder."

But seeing the rain getting heavier and heavier, Zhao Jing was still a little worried after all. She let go of the two children, pulled the curtain and went to the porch, looking at the dark rain curtain and became worried.

Fortunately, not long after, a little maid from outside came in to reply, saying that the old lady's frame had arrived at the door.Zhao Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief, while preparing for the dinner, she went into the room to find clean clothes and came out. The old lady walked outside, she was probably already wet.

After Zhao Jing finished these things, the old lady and Zhang's mother had already arrived at the door, and Qi Xinrui went up to meet her, but she didn't see Mrs. He coming.Mother Zhang didn't wait for Zhao Jing to ask, she said, "The old lady originally thought Mrs. He would come over today, but she just refused, saying that she would wait until tomorrow for some preparations before coming."

Zhao Jing felt a little uneasy when she heard this, but looking at the weather, it was common sense for Mrs. He not to want to come, so she smiled and said: "Then ask Miss Qi to go with her mother again tomorrow, and she will always willing to come."

Mrs. Xu was drenched in a few drops of rain on the way back. At this time, her hair was still a little damp. Zhao Jing handed over a hot towel, then turned around and poured tea for her: "Mother has worked hard this journey."

The old lady Xu just waved her hand and said: "It's nothing for me to work hard, I just look at Mrs. He's appearance, it's really pitiful, I'd better take her over tomorrow, otherwise my heart will be at ease not come down."

Zhao Jing hurriedly nodded and said yes, and served the old lady for dinner, and only went back to Mingde Hall when the rain subsided.

Mingde Hall is the main courtyard of the Hou Mansion, when Xu Si'an is not around, it looks really deserted.Although the weather is in dog days now, it rained in the evening, and the heat is gone at this time, but Zhao Jing couldn't sleep for a while.

She walked back and forth under the acacia tree in the yard a few times, the moss on the ground stained the snow-white shoes, Zhao Jing lowered her head, looked at her shoes and frowned, but heard a familiar voice outside. And a gentle voice came: "You stare at your shoes, can you still see a flower?"

Zhao Jing turned around hurriedly after hearing the voice, but saw Xu Si'an standing at the door of Chuihua with his hands behind his back. Running in front of him, Xu Si'an opened his arms and held her tightly in his arms.

"Why are you back?" Although it was superfluous to ask such a question at this time, Zhao Jing couldn't help but ask.In the next second, she felt her body lighten suddenly, and Xu Si'an hugged her whole body in her arms.

"Butler Zhou sent a servant to report to me, so I came back."

Zhao Jing was not surprised when she heard this, and it was not surprising that Butler Zhou would tell Xu Si'an about such a big event as the old lady leaving the house.

"Did the steward Zhou tell you why mother went to He's house?" Zhao Jing put her hand around Xu Si'an's neck and asked him with wide almond eyes.Xu Si'an nodded and said, "After I came back just now, I heard about it from Butler Zhou."

Zhao Jing leaned against Xu Si'an's chest when she heard the words, and said in a low voice: "My son also met Mrs. He before, and it made people feel distressed. I didn't expect the He family to do such a thing, so my mother said to go, we ...I didn't stop..." Zhao Jing still felt a little guilty when she said this, after all, she let the old lady go out to charge the battle alone, after all, she had some selfish intentions.

Xu Si'an saw that her expression of confessing her mistake was quite different from her usual serious expression, and it made people feel a little more affectionate. He couldn't bear to blame her, so he just smiled and said: "Mother is usually too kind, yes It would be better to go out and get in touch with people more, so that you can have a bit of old Fengjun style, Ah Jing, you did nothing wrong."

Zhao Jing has always known that Xu Si'an is not a person who is good at rhetoric, but now that she said these words, it is really heartwarming, she couldn't help but raise her head, and rubbed her moist lips against the black beard on his chin scum.
