After the meal, Qiao Mingjin saw that the child was staring at the big watermelon in the bucket, so he called the maid: "Take this watermelon down and divide it among you."
After hearing this, the child who was protecting the food hurriedly ran over to protect him. When he looked back, his mother had a sullen face and could only watch helplessly as the maids took the watermelon away.
Humiliated, he rubbed his left foot against his right foot and stood there with his head lowered.
Seeing that the child's golden beans were about to fall off, Yue Zhongyao felt very distressed. He stepped forward and held the child in his arms, coaxing him with soft words.
While coaxing, he frowned and said to Qiao Mingjin: "What's wrong with the child? Just say a few words to him and just watch him nest in the tree... This child likes watermelon and can eat a whole one by himself.
It’s not that you don’t know.”
As soon as the words fell, the child immediately fell into his father's arms and started crying. His shoulders twitched and he dropped the golden beans silently, not daring to cry in front of Qiao Mingjin.
This made Yue Zhongyao feel even more distressed. He coaxed softly: "Don't cry anymore. Daddy will give my son a roomful of watermelons later. If you don't give them to others, I will let my son eat as much as he can. You are sweating all over, and Daddy will hug you."
Take a wash."
The child didn't even raise his head, and said in a loud voice: "I want dad to wash with Cheng'er."
"Okay, daddy will take a shower with Cheng'er."
As he said that, the two father and son went out...
Before sunset, Wan'er and Ying'er also came back.
The family sat together and had dinner happily.
Before that, Qiao Mingjin had already pulled the child and scolded him. At this moment, Yue Qingcheng was sitting on the chair obediently, not daring to make any mistakes.
Fortunately, although this kid is naughty, he still acts in a measured manner and has a sense of right and wrong in his heart. He knows what he can do and what he cannot do. Today, the red cherry gun only poked other people's clothes, not their bodies.
.
This is also the reason why Qiao Mingjin saw that Yue Zhongyao doted on his children and did not try his best to take care of them.
Before the meal, the three siblings said some heart-warming words together as usual.
Wan'er particularly liked these two younger brothers. Because she was born early, she often helped Qiao Mingjin take care of her two younger brothers after they were born. She was very sisterly and took good care of her two younger brothers.
She was even more distressed because she was ten years younger than her. After she was born, she already knew how to take care of her little brother. And she also liked her sister very much. She always liked to whisper to her.
Wan'er just returned home today, and this little thing rushed up and told her about today's inhumane treatment. Her aggrieved appearance made Wan'er feel heartbroken.
When Ying'er returned home, he naturally did not miss the opportunity to act like a spoiled child in front of his brother. Although Ying'er felt sorry for him, she was very like an elder brother. After hearing what he said, she still grabbed her brother and lectured him.
Qiao Mingjin felt very comforted when she saw the three siblings making out affectionately together. She led the children to have a warm dinner together.
After dinner, the family sat together and chatted as usual, with the child in his father's arms as usual.
Qiao Mingjin glanced at him and ignored him. In the afternoon, he gave him a scolding. With Yue Zhongyao around, he didn't beat him. But if he does it again next time, he will have to deal with it harshly.
Qiao Mingjin first asked about the eldest son's homework, and was very relieved to see that the eldest son was well organized and could digest the day's homework well.
On the side, Yue Zhongyao grinned even more when he saw this eldest son who was talented in reading.
He read very little. When he was a child, he wanted to study but had no money. Now that his family has the means, he is naturally willing to devote all his money to provide education for his children. Seeing that his son is willing to read and study well, he feels very happy.
When I see a child among my colleagues who only likes to play with sticks and doesn't like studying, I like to show off the eldest child to feel proud.
Qiao Mingjin asked her eldest son, then turned to look at her grown-up daughter, feeling happy and sad at the same time.
The daughter I have raised for more than ten years has now reached the age of marriage and will soon become someone else's.
I felt lost in my heart.
On the other side, Yue Zhongyao looked at his daughter, feeling equally happy and worried.
I am happy that my daughter has grown up, but I am worried that some brat from some family has snatched my daughter away.
On the one hand, he was happy that more and more people came to ask for his daughter to marry him, but on the other hand, he wished he could hide his daughter and prevent her from going out.
At this time, Wan'er is already sixteen years old. When she grows up, she doesn't look like Yue Zhongyao as much as she did when she was a child. There are some shadows of Qiao Mingjin on her face. At the age of sixteen, she is as delicate as a flower. This child has a beautiful face.
, bright and beautiful, her height is similar to that of Yue Zhongyao, she is much taller than her peers. Look at Tingting Yuli.
Yue Zhongyao looked at his daughter who combined the advantages of him and Jin Niang, and felt sweet and bitter in his heart. He asked his daughter softly: "How was your visit to Baoxiang Temple today? Who did your aunt take you to meet?"
Wan'er's two aunts are Ming Jue and Ming Heng's wife.
These two were both born and raised in Jingli. Their families are prominent, so naturally they cannot be compared to those from the countryside. Since Wan'er grew up, the two have led Wan'er to attend various flower parties in Jingli.
, led her to walk among the nobles, taught her how to socialize and socialize.
Today, Wan'er doesn't look rustic at all, she is just like a lady from a noble family in Beijing. With the guidance of her two aunts, her rules and etiquette are now hard to fault.
At this time, Wan'er listened to Yue Zhongyao's question and answered softly.
After finishing speaking, he said to Qiao Mingjin: "Mom, my two aunts said they would come to our house in a few days. They said they wanted to ask my mother if she wanted to go back to Qingchuan to celebrate the New Year this year. If she didn't go back, would she like to stay with them?
Let’s go back to Yizhou together or bring our grandparents and great-grandmother to Beijing to celebrate the New Year together.”
After hearing this, Qiao Mingjin turned her head and glanced at Yue Zhongyao.
In the past ten years, their family has returned to Qingchuan twice because the children were too young to travel. Later, they brought their children's grandparents to Beijing twice to celebrate the New Year together.
It's just that the impressions of these reunions were not very good.
The children were looking forward to their arrival, but after they arrived, the next few children stopped mentioning them.
If Yue Zhongyao proposed to return to Qingchuan for the New Year, the children were not very interested and were somewhat resistant.
It’s true that that family is so capable.
He didn't want to leave once he came. He flaunted himself everywhere in Beijing and made Yue Zhongyao lose face several times.
Even the two times they went back to Qingchuan to celebrate the New Year, their impression of the family was not good. The family kept an eye on their luggage. If the gifts they prepared were not to their liking, they would be so embarrassed that it would not be easy for them for a whole year.
Later, Yue Zhongyao only sent them generous pension money every year. But even this could not satisfy the family's appetite.
Seeing that Yue Zhongyao was promising, the Sun family and the Yu family reunited after they had been separated.
I still receive letters from them every month, saying that the family is in need of this and that. They also say that relatives and friends all know that there is a Beijing official in the family, and now there are more entertainments and more money. And if the family has food
If you use it too poorly, you will lose Yue Zhongyao's face and so on.
Qiao Mingjin really couldn't resist this.
Even the house she built in Xiahe Village could not stand up to their objections and she gave it to them. Later, their whole family moved there and expanded it with the money Yue Zhongyao sent back. Later, the house was built bigger.
The letter said that I need to buy more things. Otherwise, the empty house will make my relatives laugh.
Yue Zhongyao didn't want to spoil them. He would reply to all the letters he received, but he only sent money once a year...
At this time, Yue Zhongyao saw Qiao Mingjin looking at him a little sarcastically.
His mother also wanted to move to the capital to live with their family, so she picked them up during the Chinese New Year. After the Chinese New Year, his mother refused to go back. She even followed them around to socialize during the New Year, making several jokes. Later, she still
His father dragged him back.
Yue Zhongyao sighed as he thought about it.
Thanks to the money he sent back, the house was renovated and a lot of land was purchased. Just like Xiangkun, now he also has people to serve him. What else is there to be dissatisfied about? His mother can always be there every time.
In the letter, Xu Xu complained...
Yue Zhongyao thought for a while and said to Qiao Mingjin: "Let's celebrate the New Year in Beijing this year. In a few days, invite the two brothers-in-law to come and discuss how to bring the father-in-law, mother-in-law and grandmother to Beijing to celebrate the New Year together. Yaozu will also come back this winter.
When Beijing files a lawsuit, Mingyu will also come back with his children, and then the whole family will be reunited."
Qiao Mingjin smiled and nodded. In the past ten years, their family had not been reunited many times.
Although Mingjue and Mingheng were officials in the capital, Mingqi followed Zhou Shanxian to the military training camp in a neighboring county, while Mingyu followed Zhou Yaozu to other places and became the county magistrate's wife. Her five sisters always gathered together during the Chinese New Year.
Uneven.
During the Chinese New Year in the past few years, the family always returned to Yizhou or picked up Qiao's father, Qiao's mother, and Lan's family to Beijing for reunion. But even so, there were always one or two missing.
The family chatted for a while, and then the couple sent the three children back to their respective yards.
After watching the three children walk out of the courtyard, the couple turned back to their room.
"Why did you come back so early today? Don't you usually come back after dark when you go to the outskirts of Beijing?"
"It wasn't anything serious. I took a look and then went back. Fortunately, I went back early, otherwise the child Cheng'er would have dried up on the tree."
After saying that, he glared at Qiao Mingjin again.
Qiao Mingjin glanced at him sideways and shook off his hand on her waist: "That child is so stubborn, I don't know who he is like. Children from other families will act coquettishly to admit their mistakes to their parents when they make mistakes and want to correct them.
In the past, he was the only one who took advantage of me, and the more I fought, the more stubborn he became."
After hearing this, Yue Zhongyao came over with a smile and put his hand on his wife's waist, and even put a scent on Qiao Mingjin's neck.
Holding Qiao Mingjin in his arms, he said: "That kid Qing'er prefers the soft to the tough. The more you fight against him, the more stubborn he becomes. Today he really took it for granted. The red cherry gun was custom-made for him by me. It has always been
It's his beloved thing, he finally got it back from someone else, and you punish him. Isn't that going to make him angry?"
Qiao Mingjin snorted. That's the truth, but you can't spoil him.
The couple went to the inner room while talking.
He and his wife have always been hands-on and are used to being self-sufficient. They don't like maids waiting in the room, so they sent them away early. At this time, he and his wife were the only ones in the room.
As soon as he entered the inner room, Yue Zhongyao hugged Qiao Mingjin around the waist, put his head on Qiao Mingjin's shoulder and neck, and started rubbing her.
Qiao Mingjin smiled and struggled: "Itchy..."
"Where is it itchy? Here? Or here?"
Qiao Mingjin twisted her body uncontrollably, clinging to him and trembling with laughter.
Yue Zhongyao was at the age when he was a powerful man, so he was suddenly aroused. He picked up Qiao Mingjin by the waist and sat on top of him.
"Shall we take a dip in the bathtub?"
Qiao Mingjin put one hand on his shoulder and patted him with the other: "You go first. I'll clean up."
Yue Zhongyao moved his mouth and quickly pressed it against Qiao Mingjin's pink lips, saying vaguely: "What's there to do...Jin Niang...I..."
As he spoke, he moved his hands up and down.
Qiao Mingjin took advantage of his distraction and slipped down.
Pushing him: "You go wash first."
Yue Zhongyao glanced at his beloved wife helplessly, turned around, picked up his shoes and went into the clean room.
After a while, his voice came from the clean room: "Jin Niang, hand me the cotton towel, I forgot to take it!"
Qiao Mingjin rolled her eyes at the clean room. Every time she entered the clean room, she always forgot this and that.
I don't know what's wrong.
And every time when Qiao Mingjin brought something for him, he would always pounce on him and do something with him. Sometimes, when he got interested, he would drag Qiao Mingjin to the bathtub and have a rough time...
Qiao Mingjin is often intimidated by his enthusiasm. He seems to be trying to make up for all the shortcomings in the past. (To be continued...)
