Hou Men Splendid

Chapter 146
Time flies, and three years have passed in a blink of an eye.

Sister Ning, who can only babble when she was still a baby, is already three and a half years old.

In the beginning of spring and April, Brother Bo and his younger sister were picking flowers in Shao's garden. The careful brother never forgot to hold her hand at all times to prevent her from falling.

Sister Ning's health is not good. She fell ill when she was six months old, and then suffered another serious illness when she was one year old. Such a young child should not take too much traditional Chinese medicine. Lin Qingran prepared weak medicine The pills are given to her, and the whole family regards her as the most important treasure, and the two elder brothers protect her tightly.

Brother Bo picked a flower, carefully removed all the dirt on the petals, and then brought it to Sister Ning. Sister Ning carefully touched it, smiled at her brother, and squinted her eyes ,"nice."

"Sister is of course pretty." Bo Geer led her into the pavilion, and the nurse and maidservant at the side brought them water. Did you not go to the academy?"

Bo Geer paused, and took the fruit off the table and put it in her hand as if nothing had happened, "There is no class in the afternoon."

"That's not right." Sister Ning tilted her head and looked at him. She remembered that her eldest and second brothers had classes today.

"You remember wrongly." Bo Geer looked at her seriously, Ning Jie nodded, but didn't take it to heart, two people walked in the corridor on the other side of the pavilion, one big and one small, Bo Geer Seeing it at a glance, and pulling Ning sister to the side, the eyes immediately became sharp.

"Ning'er, look who's here." Xiao Hongxuan saw the limp Ning'er standing next to Brother Bo'er, and pulled the son next to him, "Go, go and say hello to your wife."

Xiao Jingyan, who was born only one month earlier than Sister Ning, looked up at his father with a cool look on his face. After hesitating for a moment, he walked up to Brother Bo and greeted him obediently, "Second Brother Shao, Sister Ning."

Brother Bo snorted, and Sister Ning looked at Xiao Jingyan, and obediently called out, "Hello, Brother Yan." Then she greeted Xiao Hongxuan who came over, "Hello, Uncle Xiao."

Xiao Hongxuan really wanted to hug Sister Ning, so he looked at Brother Bo and said angrily, "If you don't go to school, I'll tell your father to go."

A man in his twenties frightened a six-year-old boy, Bo Geer raised his head and ignored him, why didn't he go to school? I heard my mother said yesterday that Uncle Xiao would come over today, so he knew he was bringing him with him. Xiao Jingyan came over, his sister was not Xiao Jingyan's daughter-in-law, if he didn't pay attention, her sister would be deceived if she was so good.

"Sister Ning, do you miss Uncle Xiao?" Naturally, Brother Bo couldn't stop Xiao Hongxuan from hugging Sister Ning, Xiao Hongxuan hugged her, and Sister Ning nodded, "Yes."

"Then do you miss your elder brother Yan?" Xiao Hongxuan continued to be persuasive. Sister Ning glanced at Xiao Jingyan and nodded again, "Yes."

"Oh, what a caring girl." Xiao Hongxuan kissed Sister Ning, and Brother Bo tugged at his sleeve, reminding him earnestly, "Uncle Xiao, it's time for my sister to go to rest."

Brother Bo just didn't want them to spend more time with his sister. Ning sister nodded seriously when she heard what her brother said, "Uncle Xiao, Ning'er is going to rest."

"It's okay, uncle will take you back."

"Uncle Xiao, I'm afraid it's not right for us to go to the inner courtyard." Brother Bo reminded coolly, Xiao Hongxuan glared at him, and warned in a low voice, "Boy, does your father know if you skip class or not?"

Brother Bo snorted and choked back, "I'll tell Dad when he comes back, Uncle Xiao, you're not doing your job properly, so you don't go to work and come to my house at this hour."

"Hey you brat!" It's not cute at all

In the end, the noise came to the front hall. After Lin Qingran took over her daughter, the world became quiet.

This scene has been staged for the second time this year, not to mention last year, the year before last, the Prince of the North seems to be very obsessed with marrying the Shao family, and often brings his son here. According to his words, it must be Get acquainted from a young age, so that you can cultivate your relationship early.

It is not the first time that my son has skipped class because of this.

Every time Xiao Hongxuan came here, he would bring a lot of good medicine. The two families knew that Ning’s son was in poor health. She was born with a weak body and often fell ill. These medicines are too nourishing for Ning’s son now, Lin Qingran said Several times Xiao Hongxuan continued to send gifts, so she stopped talking and instead sent some gifts in return.

After sitting for a while, Xiao Hongxuan took his son back. Sister Ning hugged her son to sleep. Lin Qingran looked at her son standing in front of her. I know what Uncle Xiao will say to my sister."

"So you don't have to go to school." Lin Qingran looked at him, "You tell me, how many times is this?"

"The third time." Brother Bo said reluctantly, "I know it's my fault for skipping classes, but Uncle Xiao always said that my sister is his daughter-in-law." When he was four years old, he didn't understand daughter-in-law , What does daughter-in-law mean? After he understood it, he became anxious.

"So next time they come, you still have to skip class." Lin Qingran didn't know what to say to the behavior of this family, her husband and son were all like this.

Brother Bo didn't speak, his expression was obviously saying that if he could escape, he would still run back and watch.

"Your Uncle Xiao came to see Sister Ning out of good intentions. The two families have not yet agreed on their marriage. Who your sister will marry in the future is still uncertain. Your Uncle Xiao is joking, and you take it seriously?" Lin Qingran sighed With a cry, he pulled him to his side and taught.

"Then Uncle Xiao can't joke anymore." Brother Bo said seriously, "My sister is still young and doesn't understand anything."

"Then you understand?" Lin Qingran poked his forehead, "You have made such a big claim at a young age, and you think you can do it like this. Who told you?"

Brother Bo muttered dissatisfaction, but Lin Qingran urged him, "Hurry up and go back to the academy."

Brother Bo also knew that his mother would definitely get angry if he continued, and once his mother got angry, his father couldn't say anything good for him, so he went out and got into the carriage, and went back to the academy obediently.

Watching him go out, Li's mother saw Lin Qingran sighing, "Miss, the second young master is only protecting the young lady."

"I'm only three years old now." That's it. If I wait until I'm 13 and reach the age to say goodbye, the family won't be able to make a fuss.

The piano player came in at the door and said that there was a visitor.

Lin Qingran happened to be in the front hall and was brought in by Si Qin. He was a young man about fourteen or five years old. Lin Qingran didn't recognize who it was at first glance until he introduced himself, "Madam Shao , I'm next Yuan Chengzhi."

"It's Chengzhi." Lin Qingran's face was stunned, "Please sit down."

Pengcheng who left six years ago, six years later, the grown-up child Lin Qingran could no longer recognize her. Looking carefully, the expression on her brows was the same as when they first met. Tong had written a letter after the examination, but she hadn't written it for a few days, and Lin Qingran herself had forgotten about it, and only remembered when she saw him that she should be here to participate in the palace examination.

"Mrs. Shao, if I succeed in the palace examination ten days later, I hope to worship Master Shao as my teacher." Yuan Chengzhi directly stated his intention of coming. He made a decision since he was in Pengcheng that he would worship Master Shao as his teacher in the future.

"Chengzhi, since you're here, you can stay at the mansion for dinner. You can tell Mr. Shao about the apprenticeship in person. Is your mother okay?" Lin Qingran knew that this child was very ambitious, and Zhongju was a big one. She was also happy for Aunt Yuan when she succeeded.

"Thanks to Mrs. Shao's concern, my mother is doing very well. I want to take her with me in the future, so that she will not have to be busy anymore and can enjoy life." Yuan Chengzhi said with a straight face, Lin Qingran smiled, "You You don't have to be so reserved."

At this time, the 15-year-old boy showed a hint of embarrassment on his face. He actually hesitated for a long time before deciding to visit Shao's house. The person they have taken care of, he doesn't have so much money to buy a visit gift, isn't he too abrupt, he hesitated, hesitated for more than half a month before coming here, those words just now, but he summoned up a lot of courage to call himself It took a lot of gas to survive.

"Where do you live now?" Lin Qingran asked him with a smile seeing him like this.

"There is a guild hall specially arranged for us." Yuan Chengzhi said hurriedly.

"Let's stay here for dinner tonight, Han'er hasn't seen you for so long." Lin Qingran smiled kindly, "Last time I wrote a letter, you said your sister got married, how are you doing now?"

"My sister is doing very well, and my wife is also very good." Yuan Chengzhi told Lin Qingran a lot about Pengcheng's past few years. Since he passed the children's examination and became a scholar, their family's life has obviously improved. There are many, and there are still people who will help them. In addition, Shao Ziyu entrusted bureaucrats to take care of them before. In the following years, Yuan Chengzhi devoted himself to studying and lived up to expectations. He finally won the exam smoothly and came to Luodu City to participate in the palace examination.

Talking and talking, it will soon be evening

Brother Han came back one step earlier than Brother Bo. Yuan Chengzhi was his playmate when he was a child. He was very happy when he met Brother Han. In the prefect of Pengcheng in the past few years, this big brother played with him. After a while Shao Ziyu and Bo Geer came back at the same time, and the dinner here is ready, so let's eat first.

After dinner, Shao Ziyu and Yuan Chengzhi were left to chat in the side hall. Lin Qingran took the children back to the main house. Erlang didn't seem very happy after eating all night, and came back with her husband again. Lin Qingran I also guessed that Shao Ziyu went to the academy to bring his son back in person, and there must be lessons along the way.

"Who are you angry with?" Lin Qingran pinched his cheek and smiled lightly.

Brother Bo snorted, "Mom, I'm going back to read." He went straight back to his yard when he went out. Lin Qingran was not in a hurry, so he put a bag for Ning and let her eat custard by herself, while Brother Han accompanied her sister After a while, he said to Lin Qingran unhurriedly, "Mom, I'm going to see my brother."

Lin Qingran nodded. Sister Ning looked up at Lin Qingran while eating the custard, "Mother, did my second brother tell you about it?"

"How do you know?" Lin Qingran patted her head.

"Second brother skipped class today." Sister Ning said seriously, "Second brother lied to me, saying that I remembered it wrong." She has a good memory and remembers everything.
