Leaving home (2)
In the evening of that day, the three children arrived at the He Mansion.
The last stubbornness of the Marquis of Jinning was to send three children to him personally.
He Qi stayed in the mansion specifically. When he saw the prince of Jinning, he was quite polite: "I miss my three nephews and wanted to keep them for a few days. Unexpectedly, you even went there specially. I felt sorry for it."
At the new Duke of Pingguo who was in charge of the 100,000 border troops, the Marquis of Jinning immediately threw down all his dissatisfaction and bowed with a smile: "Duke is so polite. I am the children's uncle, so it's time to send them away."
It was almost dark, so it was a good thing to stay for dinner and get close to He Qi.
Prince Jinning was thinking happily, and then he heard He Qi smile and said, "It's such a long journey, hurry back while it's still dark. I won't keep you."
Marquis of Jinning: “…”
Prince Hou of Jinning beat him up and covered up his embarrassment: "What I said is that it is difficult to walk on the night road, so I also want to go back early."
He Qi ordered Su Mu to send the prince of Jinning on his behalf.
When the prince of Jinning left, He Qicai smiled and looked at his three nephews.
Zheng Dalang is only one year younger than A Yuan and Aman, and is eight years old this year. He looks the same as his biological father. He is simply a smaller version of Zheng Qinghuai. His eyebrows are flexible and he looks like a clever child.
Zheng Erlang is five years old this year and looks much more delicate than Zheng Dalang. Zheng Sanlang is only two years old this year, a few months younger than his own Sanlang.
All three children were taught to be quite polite, standing in a row of fists and saluting: "I've seen my uncle."
Over the past year, He Qi has been to the Zheng family several times. The children have seen him.
He Qi smiled and said, "Get up! From today on, you will stay in He Mansion." Then, he called the three brothers of Ayuan Aman Sanlang: "Ayuan Aman, you two are old and are brothers. We will take care of Dalang and the others in the future."
When A Yuan and Aman saw that the playmate came, he felt so happy and responded happily.
Before his father could give him instructions, Saburo walked to Zheng Saburo: "Is your name Saburo?"
Zheng Sanlang nodded.
Saburo grinned and said, "My name is Saburo. From now on, we will play together."
Zheng Sanlang responded obediently.
He Qi laughed silently. This Saburo is the youngest at home on weekdays, but now he suddenly has a younger one and has become his brother, which is quite excited.
While talking, Cheng Jinrong came back.
Zhu Qixuan was also the one who came back with Cheng Jinrong.
The three Zheng Dalang brothers, who were originally somewhat reserved, immediately became active when they saw their mother and immediately surrounded her. Zhu Qixuan stretched her eyebrows and smiled in her eyes: "You have come to see my aunt first."
The three children stood together and saluted: "I've seen my aunt."
Cheng Jinrong pursed her lips and smiled: "Everyone gets up, don't be restrained. From now on, you three brothers will just stay here with peace of mind."
Then he said to Zhu Qixuan: "We have Mr. Xixi and Master Wu in our family. Dalang and Ayuan Aman studied and practiced martial arts together. Erlang was five years old this year and was at the age of starting to study. We will also go to the study together from tomorrow."
Zhu Qixuan was moved and ashamed: "I feel so uneasy when I bother you everywhere."
Both husband and wife are not afraid of hardship. But the children are still young and need to have a good environment to study and practice martial arts. Living in the He Mansion is of course ten or a hundred times better than the Zheng family. For the sake of the children, she had to be shameless.
Cheng Jinrong smiled and comforted Zhu Qixuan: "You and He Qi are the cousins of the relatives. No matter this, He Qi and Zheng Qinghuai are friends who have grown up together since childhood. It is also appropriate to take care of each other."
"In the future, don't say such a disgusting thing."
"You and Zheng Qinghuai are in the clinic on weekdays, so the children live here. When you have free time, you and your husband will come back to accompany your children for more than one time."
Zhu Qixuan had red eyes and nodded in response.
...
Cheng Jinrong had already made someone clean up a yard, enough for their family of five to live in.
Everyone who serves the children's daily life has been chosen. Each child has two servants and two other women who do chores.
The mother and son didn't see each other for two days. When they arrived in the room, the children immediately started chattering.
"Mom, the house here is so big." Zheng Dalang was still young when he left Beijing and had no memory of his childhood life. He had lived in a small house since he could remember it. Seeing that the house was clean and spacious, he was very happy.
Zheng Erlang's eyes were also lit: "Mom, the bed is also very big, so it's enough for us brothers to sleep together."
Zheng Sanlang held his mother's arm and shook it constantly, his little face was full of excitement. He was not very quick to speak, and when he was happy, he called "Mom" one after another.
When Zhu Qixuan saw his sons so excited, he felt both funny and sad.
In recent years, the Zheng family has indeed lived a hard life.
In the past, he was generous and generous in clothing and food, but once he became a criminal minister. After arriving at the border, men had to serve hard labor for half a year, and women also had to work as servants, and they had to make a lot of cotton coats, shoes and socks every year. The daily meal was extremely simple, and it took a few days to see the meat.
It was their turn to have some meat, and they were reluctant to eat it, so they kept it for their sons to eat it.
The children have never lived a good life since they grew up. So even when they saw such a slightly larger room, they were so excited.
"From today, you will stay here." Zhu Qixuan whispered: "Dalang, you must take care of your two younger brothers. Don't be naughty and silly, be obedient in everything."
Zheng Dalang obediently responded: "Don't worry, mom, I will definitely take care of my second and third brothers."
Zheng Erlang and Zheng Sanlang responded in unison: "Don't worry, mom, we must be obedient."
Zhu Qixuan smiled with relief and touched the children's heads one by one: "Okay, you will feel relieved if you are obedient."
Although life is hard, the couple is united and the sons are filial and obedient. A hard life also brings fun.
"Mom, where is dad?" Zheng Dalang asked whispered.
Zhu Qixuan replied: "Your grandmother is sick and lives in the clinic. Your father stays in the clinic to take care of your grandmother. After two days, I will stay there and let your father come back and accompany you."
Zheng Dalang immediately said, "It's better for my mother to come back and accompany us!"
Zheng Erlang and Zheng Sanlang nodded repeatedly and agreed.
Zhu Qixuan was amused by his sons: "Don't say that in front of your father. Otherwise, it would be too hurtful to your father's heart."
After dinner, Zhu Qixuan went to bed together.
She used to be the most spoiled and accepted the bed when she slept. After marrying Zheng Qinghuai and living in the Zheng family, it took her half a year to slowly get used to it. Now that she has lost all her delicate and pretentious habits.
