Chapter five hundred and fifty seventh ordinary life
Wu Zongrui was driving the sled. Wu Fancheng, Wu Fanjue, Wu Bingyue, Wu Fanxuan and Wu Xiaofei were all on the sled. Wu Fancheng, who was more courageous, pulled the reins and laughed excitedly. Wu Fanjue was a little better, closing his mouth tightly and trying to pull.
Living in the corner of Wu Zongrui's clothes, the three girls Wu Bingyue, Wu Fanxuan and Wu Xiaofei have probably never experienced such a scene. Wu Bingyue hugged Wu Zongrui's thigh tightly, while Wu Fanxuan and Wu Xiaofei held onto Wu Bingyue tightly.
His face turned pale.
There were too many people on the sled, and it overturned not long after gliding. The hound pulling the sled lay on the ice panting from exhaustion.
Wu Zongrui, who had slipped on the ice, quickly got up and helped Wu Bingyue, who had fallen on the ice, while Wu Fanxuan, Wu Xiaofei, Wu Fancheng and Wu Fanjue got up on their own.
Several children gathered around Wu Zongrui in unison and grabbed Wu Zongrui's hands and arms.
In just a few days, Wu Zongrui established an unusual relationship with the children. At this time, he was not a strict father, but a playmate of several children. They went to the market on Juehua Island to hang out together.
Skiing on the ice, in just a day or two, the children no longer felt restrained in his presence.
This is the life of ordinary people, the life of ordinary people in a few hundred years.
Society has not yet progressed that much. Children from scholar-bureaucrat families cannot be so unrestrained in front of their fathers, and they cannot be unrestrained even in front of their mothers.
Wu Zongrui had a smile on his face, but felt a little cold in his heart. This kind of rare scene could not continue for a long time. Not to mention the eyes of the outside world, even Chen Lingyan and others would not allow it.
In any case, Wu Zongrui was the Crown Prince Shaobao of the Ming Dynasty, the Minister of the Ministry of War, the right deputy censor of the capital, and the governor of Ji Liao. He was a dignified high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty. He was a master in front of his family and a strict father in front of his children.
.
The instillation of ideas is done bit by bit and cannot be achieved overnight. What Wu Zongrui is most afraid of is the bad character of the children. The second is that he is worried about fratricide. This happens in many scholar-bureaucrat families. There is a difference between direct descendants and concubine descendants. One is in heaven.
In an underground world, not only the family thinks so, but even the children have this understanding. Due to disputes over interests, or conflicts of one kind or another, brothers and sisters end up speaking ill of each other and even fighting for their lives.
Wu Zongrui pays special attention to these two aspects. What he can do is to lead by example, create a relatively democratic atmosphere in the mansion, coordinate harmonious relationships among family members, and show strong family affection when facing all children.
There is only so much that Wu Zongrui can do. There is always a gap between ideals and reality. For example, there is an obvious gap between Wu Fancheng and Wu Fanjue. Wu Fancheng is obviously confident, but Wu Fanjue is far behind, including Wu Bingyue, and Wu Fanxuan.
Wu Xiaofei is different, Wu Bingyue can boldly hold Wu Zongrui's arm or thigh, but Wu Fanxuan and Wu Xiaofei are worse, and they all imitate Wu Bingyue's every move.
This kind of atmosphere must be generated in the mansion, including the mother of the child, who will also instill certain ideas consciously or unconsciously.
This was something Wu Zongrui could not stop. The gap between wives and concubines was huge, and the gap between direct descendants and concubines definitely existed. Wu Zongrui had no way to abolish these rules immediately. If he really did that, there would definitely be chaos in the mansion.
If you don't sweep one house, how can you sweep the world?
...
Finally, the children began to ski on their own.
Wu Fancheng was the most skillful in his movements, often waving his little hands to show off to Wu Zongrui who was watching on the side. Wu Fanjue was also good, barely able to hold the sled steady, but at a slower speed.
The three little girls Wu Bingyue, Wu Fanxuan and Wu Xiaofei were much worse off. They couldn't hold the reins and often let go. The guards who followed them had to work harder than them. They followed the sled. Once the sled became unstable,
At that moment, he quickly picked them up with quick eyes and hands to prevent them from falling on the ice.
Wu Zongrui patiently taught Wu Bingyue, Wu Fanxuan and Wu Xiaofei, telling them how to hold the reins, how to maintain the balance of the body, and how to tilt the body when the sled turned. The few little girls understood it, but after getting on the sled
, in a hurry, the operating rules have long been forgotten without a trace.
Wu Zongrui did not force himself and told the guards and personal guards to follow closely and not to let the children fall down too much.
It doesn't matter if the child is hit once, the pain will go away after a while. Wu Zongrui told the guards and personal guards that the purpose was to prevent the child from falling too hard and causing damage to the body. However, the personal guards and guards did not think so. They would never
It will make children fall on the ice. They would rather fall on their own. Sometimes they just can’t hold them anymore. When they see the child’s body leaning, they rush to the ice and let the child fall on their body.
.
Wu Zongrui didn't have much to say, so he allowed his bodyguards and bodyguards to do so.
Nature dictates that, including Wu Bingyue, once a child's nature is revealed, they won't have so many scruples.
Every time Wu Fancheng finished skiing, he would go to Wu Zongrui, stretch out his little hand, and be rewarded with a hug. Although Wu Fanjue was more reserved, he would also pull Wu Zongrui's sleeve, hoping to be rewarded with a hug. Wu Bingyue is a girl after all.
Every time they came to Wu Zongrui's side, they would always reach out and pull Wu Zongrui's arm. Wu Fanxuan and Wu Xiaofei followed Wu Bingyue's example. Wu Xiaofei was younger, and sometimes she would stand on tiptoe to pull Wu Zongrui's arm.
Wu Zongrui always hugged every child and touched their faces. Relatively speaking, the one Wu Zongrui hugged the most was five-year-old Wu Xiaofei.
Before time travel, Wu Zongrui's child was also a girl, which gave him a special feeling of closeness to his daughter. Wu Bingyue and Wu Fanxuan were slightly older. After all, in the family of scholar-bureaucrats, girls matured earlier, and sometimes Wu Zongrui held them in his arms.
Sometimes, they will still be shy and feel embarrassed when touching their faces.
...
"Husband, I can't believe what I just saw..."
Chen Lingyan walked to Wu Zongrui's side and couldn't help but pull Wu Zongrui's arm, his body trembling slightly.
Wu Zongrui turned around and realized that Chen Lingyan, Yuhuan, Xu Fo, Liu Yin, Lu Hanyun and others were all here.
"When did you come? It's very cold on the ice. I'm worried about catching a cold. You'd better go home."
While Wu Zongrui was talking, he hugged Wu Rui.
Wu Rui stared at Wu Zongrui with wide eyes.
Chen Lingyan's eyes were a little moist, Xu Fo and Liu Yin turned their heads and wiped their eyes.
What happened just now would be impossible in a scholar-bureaucrat family. The father was playing outside with his children, showing such intimacy. If such a scene were to spread, I don’t know how many people would laugh.
But Wu Zongrui didn't care and showed his love for the child without hesitation.
"My husband was playing with Fan Cheng and the others. The Nujia and the sisters watched from a distance for a long time. The sisters couldn't believe it..."
Wu Zongrui smiled and looked at everyone speaking.
"Madam, the rules are set by people. The ancients also said that a father is kind and a son is filial. As a father, I always have a serious face. What will the children think? In fact, when I was young, my father was not with me.
I don’t always keep a straight face in front of my children, so I don’t always keep a straight face in front of my children. Sometimes I think about those children from scholar-bureaucrat families who are timid and scared to death when they see their father. What’s the point?
The image in front of children does not always have to be serious and cold. When appropriate, it is not a bad idea to show kindness to children."
Chen Lingyan's eyes turned red.
"I thought I knew everything about my husband, but I just found out that I still didn't do it. My husband's love for the children was something I didn't expect. My family has strict requirements for the children. Even if I think about loving them, I don't dare to show it.
, the fear of doting will make them lawless, and the slave family will have to learn from their husbands in the future..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Lingyan's tears started flowing out.
Wu Zongrui sighed slightly, Chen Lingyan's approach was good, and all the scholar-bureaucrat families were like this.
"Madam, there is no need to blame yourself. In fact, love and doting are completely different. Tell the children what they can and cannot do. If the children make mistakes, give them the necessary punishment. Then they will understand everything and know what they can and cannot do.
You can do it, but you must care about them. Family affection is revealed in the interaction between parents and children. Take a walk with the children to make them feel that their parents are approachable and respectable. They will do the same when they get married and start a business in the future.
When it comes to treating children, don’t you think so?”
Chen Lingyan nodded repeatedly, while Yuhuan and others listened silently and nodded unconsciously.
"A small family is like this, and a family is not like this. If there is a lack of family affection between family members, they treat each other with respect and politeness. When there is a competition for interests, they will engage in intrigues and even fight for their lives. They are not as good as outsiders.
How can we have cohesion? We have always been a family. How can we sweep the world without cleaning one house? We have taken care of everything in the family. Fan Cheng and his generation can be united and harmonious and pass on the good family tradition. We
The Wu family will not fall."
Chen Lingyan had wiped away her tears and looked at Wu Zongrui and nodded.
"My husband understands what I mean."
...
When returning home, Wu Fancheng, Wu Fanjue, Wu Bingyue, Wu Fanxuan and Wu Xiaofei were all following Wu Zongrui, chattering with comfortable smiles on their faces. The smiles on Chen Lingyan and others' faces were also much more friendly.
Liao Wenru on the side lowered his head and remained silent.
Wu Zongrui spoke in a low voice to Chen Lingyan.
