Si Haochen shook his head speechlessly, just to study and be sensible. As for asking the little girl to read and write at the age of three?
Mingruo also saw Si Haochen's expression and said with a smile: "Well, my family does have a throne to inherit..."
"..." This is quite true, but, "Will it be your turn?"
"Cough." Ming Ruo felt that he was transformed into a young man who was a little talented man.
"You want to be the empress?" Si Haochen raised his eyebrows.
"If I could have a harem full of beautiful men, I would!" Ming Ruo made a face at Si Haochen.
"Oh~" Si Haochen deliberately prolonged his tone, "My beloved concubine is still thinking about the 'harem'. It seems it's time to take action in the family again."
Si Haochen held Mingruo's hand tightly and was about to take her into his arms. The door to the study room was opened, and Xiaotuanzi walked out from school. He was wearing an azure brocade robe and tied around his waist a gift from Mingruo.
Silver tiger pendant.
Xiaotuanzi was originally going to the dining room in the other direction, but he seemed to catch a glimpse of his eldest brother's tall figure from the corner of his eye. He turned his head suddenly, his big eyes shining brightly, and his small mouth opened in an O shape.
Si Haochen saw Xuan'er's expression and his movements were very familiar. He bent down to pick him up but froze. It was right for the little dumpling to rush towards him, but he jumped directly into Ming Ruo's arms.
"Sister-in-law." Xiaotuanzi hugged Mingruo's neck, "Xuan'er misses you. Does sister-in-law miss Xuan'er?"
"My little dumpling is so cute, of course I will think about it." Looking into the clear eyes of the little dumpling, Mingruo rubbed his head, "Xuan'er has grown a lot taller."
The little boy in his arms has begun to lose his baby fat, and his limbs have become slender. It is estimated that in a year or two, he will no longer be a "little dumpling".
"Xuan'er eats and sleeps well, studies and practices martial arts, and drinks milk every day." Xiaotuanzi said that he had conscientiously completed all the instructions given by his sister-in-law before leaving.
"So good." Mingruo's face showed a happy smile like an old mother's.
If Mingruo really likes Xiaotuanzi, he is not only as cute as his former nephew, but also very sensible. He often acts like a little adult, which makes people inexplicably feel distressed.
"It's getting late, let's go have lunch." Si Haochen reached out to hug Xuan'er.
Although Xuan'er remained as before, she stayed in his arms and talked about what books she had read recently and what new tricks she had learned. But after she finished speaking, she quickly jumped down to the ground, holding his wife's hand and acting coquettishly.
Si Haochen had an inexplicable feeling of being perfunctory by his own brother.
"Sister-in-law, Master slapped my hand this morning." Xiao Tuanzi stretched out his white and tender little hand, with a trace of a ruler on it.
The corners of Si Haochen's mouth twitched. In order to act coquettishly, he was willing to say such embarrassing things...
Mingruo took out the medical bag from her 'sleeve pocket' and took out a box of ointment. While applying the ointment with a cotton swab, she asked, "Why did Master hit you?"
"When I endorsed the book, I missed a paragraph." Xiao Tuanzi pouted and was unhappy.
"Just be careful next time." Mingruo blew on the ointment-smeared hand.
Since the ointment contains mint, it cools down with a gentle blow. The originally burning pain was relieved, and Xiaoduanzi's eyes were full of surprises.
Mingruo pushed the ointment in front of Xiaotuanzi: "Let Aunt Jin apply it to you again before going to bed at night. It will be fine tomorrow."
"No need for grandma, Xuan'er can apply it herself." Xiaotuanzi put the ointment into his purse.
The two of them had lunch with Xiao Tuanzi. Xiao Tuanzi had schoolwork in the afternoon and was taken down by Grandma Jin for a lunch break. Before leaving, Xiao Tuanzi looked at his sister-in-law pitifully. He wanted to talk to her for a while longer.
"Go to bed. I'll prepare delicious dinner for you." Mingruo pinched Xiaoduanzi's cheeks.
Hearing the delicious food, Xiaotuanzi's eyes lit up: "Xuan'er wants to eat colorful dumplings."
"Okay." Mingruo responded with his mouth full.
In the afternoon, Si Haochen was handling affairs in the East Side Hall. Mingruo was in the small kitchen, instructing the cook to make colorful dumplings, and also made two of Xiaotuanzi's favorite dishes - sweet and sour pork tenderloin and honey fried chicken nuggets.
.
During dinner, Xiao Tuanzi not only got the delicious food he had been craving for, but he was also told that there would be no classes tomorrow morning and that he would open an ancestral hall to worship his ancestors.
Early the next morning, Mingruo took a bath, changed clothes, and put on makeup under the care of Aunt Xu.
Ming Ruo wears a high bun and wears a black palace dress with red edges. The front, hem and cuffs are all embroidered with beautiful and complicated patterns with gold thread.
Ming Ruo straightened her sleeves. She had rarely worn dresses of this color. She just felt that after putting them on, her aura immediately increased to 2.8 meters, which was very majestic.
"Let's go." Si Haochen walked in from the outside, wearing a black jade crown. The color and pattern of his robe were exactly the same as Mingruo's, making him look like a couple.
When she saw Xiaotuanzi, Mingruo realized that she was not wearing a couple's outfit today, but a parent-child outfit.
Mingruo originally thought that Si Haochen would rarely come back, so he would go to the ancestral hall to burn incense. But as soon as he walked into the courtyard where the ancestral hall was located, he found that things were not that simple. The carpet extended from the ancestral hall to the entrance of the yard. The ancestral hall was a very
The majestic palace has many seats in the middle. There is a row of long lamps on the altar table below. On both sides of the altar table are pairs of gilded crane candlesticks.
An old man with white beard and hair, wearing a high crown and a black dress with a red seal, first recited a congratulatory message, then lit three sticks of incense and handed them to Si Haochen. After that, he
Passed the incense to Mingruo and Xuan'er.
After paying homage, the old man took the incense back and inserted it into the incense burner with his own hands.
Mingruo thought this was the end, but saw the old man take out a book with a golden cover from a golden nanmu box, holding a pen and writing something on it.
Mingruo was a little bored, so he looked up at the characters on the rows. They were all big seal scripts. Mingruo could only guess based on the font structure of the small seal scripts, but unfortunately he couldn't quite figure it out. There was probably a 'si' on each row.
words, but it looks a little awkward.
The white-haired old man finally finished writing and respectfully handed what he had written to Si Haochen to read. Si Haochen nodded after reading it, took out an exquisite gold seal from his sleeve pocket, dipped it in cinnabar and pressed it on it.
.
After doing this, Si Haochen returned the booklet to the old man. The old man carefully put it back into the box and then walked into the side hall holding the box.
"Okay, we can go." Si Haochen held Mingruo's hand and walked out.
Xiaotuanzi took Mingruo's other hand and shook it: "Sister-in-law's name is recorded in the jade certificate. It's great."
"Huh?" Mingruo looked at Si Haochen, his eyes full of questions.
"From now on, you will be a member of my family in life, and you will be a ghost in my family in death. You can't escape." Si Haochen curled up a slight smile on his lips, obviously in a very good mood.
