Therefore, without knowing it, Wei Changying felt that she was a good candidate after talking with Cao Hong'er: she was bold and careful, and had experience in raising children. Moreover, she claims to have learned some medical science from Ji Gu. Although she is definitely not comparable to Huang and Duanmu Xinmiao, she still seems to be fine with simple illnesses such as headaches and brain fever.
Wei Changying did not ask her to see a doctor, and she had no shortage of famous doctors he could invite. But Shen Shuxie's health is not very good. Having an aunt who knows medical skills by her side is more reassuring than an ordinary aunt.
In addition, Cao Hong'er was introduced by the Ji family. This family has been involved with her natal family for decades, and now the whole family's life is in the hands of the Shen family. In the future, wealth and career will be inseparable from the support of the Shen family, which is much more credible than having children at home.
There is no need for Cao Hong'er to ignore the people who are already the leaders of the clan and speculate on those old men who have God knows how long they can live.
After thinking about it, Wei Changying had no intention of beating around the bush because it was the Chinese New Year in two days. He straightforwardly proposed to let Cao Hong'er take care of his second son: "Xie'er is not in good health and he is also playful. He has long wanted to find a capable person. My aunt gave me help, but the previous ones were not satisfactory. Sister Ji said that Madam Cao, you are very good at taking care of children, and I had no other request, that is, to supervise my daughter-in-law to take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation, which he should not do. Just stop it, but I don’t know if Mrs. Cao is willing to give in?”
"A civilian girl comes from a rough background. Thanks to Madam, I am able to come to this hall. Since Madam loves me so much, how can I dare not to obey?" Cao Hong'er wouldn't have come here if she didn't want to. She had injured her body during childbirth and would never be a mother again. . Although the husband was a simple and honest man, he did not think about taking a concubine or marrying another man after living in the suburbs of Zhoucheng. He just said that this was the fate of the couple, and they lived like this... In the end, they were heartbroken and it was hard to heal.
Mothers who have lost their children are often prone to empathy for other people's children.
Cao Hong'er was moved when her sister-in-law said that she would be a personal aunt for a handsome young master of the Shen family. She was so excited just now, fearing that something bad might displease Wei Changying.
At this moment, when I heard Wei Changying's invitation, I was overjoyed and agreed immediately!
Wei Changying was very happy to see that she seemed to really like this job, so he called someone: "Bring Xie'er to meet Aunt Cao." Since Cao Hong'er agreed, she immediately changed her mind.
It was just that they waited for a long time before Lianmei, who was sweating profusely, came in with Shen Shuxie in her arms. There were some pinch marks under her sleeves where Shen Shuxie had grabbed her. It was obvious that Shen Shuxie had lost his temper and refused to come over. She wanted to He was scratched when he picked him up after fulfilling Wei Changying's order.
Seeing this situation, Wei Changying felt very humiliated and scolded: "Xie'er, what are you making a fuss about?"
"The child is sleepy and wants to sleep! But Sister Lianmei forced the child to come over!" Shen Shuxie shook his head after landing, and Lianmei quickly helped him to stand still. As expected, he looked sleepy. , he curtly saluted, staggered to the knees of the Chief of Guards, and muttered, "Mother, what did you ask the child to do?"
Wei Changying felt distressed when he saw how sleepy he was, and he was also slightly worried: "Isn't it evening yet? Why are you so sleepy?" Could it be that you are not feeling well again? She put her hand on her son's forehead anxiously, and then breathed a sigh of relief when she realized that his body temperature was normal.
"My maid heard from Bi'er that the Fourth Young Master was sleepy after running back and forth in the house for a long time." Lianmei was worried because she forcibly woke up Shen Shuxie. She seemed to be meeting Wei Changying now. He didn't mean to scold him, so he had the courage to speak cautiously.
Wei Changying didn't blame her. If Shen Shuxie wasn't sick, he couldn't be asked to sleep more during the day. Otherwise, you won't be able to sleep at night, which is not only frustrating for the person, but also bad for his health.
So after hearing this, he nodded and called Lianju: "Get a basin of water!"
Afraid of being left out in the cold, Cao Hong'er apologized to her on behalf of Shen Shuxie, "Don't blame Aunt Cao, this child is not usually in good health. Now in winter, he needs to stay away from the cold... Alas, no one can trust him and call him Messing around in the house!"
Cao Hong'er didn't even blink when Shen Shuxie put down his fleshy little hands that were rubbing his eyes, revealing his delicate and handsome little face that was inherited from his direct grandmother, Mrs. Su. She followed the young master with her eyes. - She has never seen such a beautiful young man!
Originally, Cao Hong'er took this job of babysitting because she wanted to find someone to express her grief for her son. Although this meeting with Shen Shuxie revealed his naughty side, she couldn't resist how cute he was. He was so cute and good-looking. Got it!
She was so cute and good-looking that Cao Honger immediately made up her mind to keep this job no matter what!
She was so absorbed in watching it that she actually ignored Wei Changying's words.
Ji Yiren, who had been eating snacks next to them since they started talking, smoothed things over: "Don't worry, foster mother, my aunt loves children the most, so she doesn't want to blame the fourth brother." She picked up another piece of candy and asked Shen Shu Xie, "Tiger Eye Candy, can fourth brother eat it?"
Except for Shen Shuyan, Ji Yiren was not very familiar with other members of the Shen family. Even Shen Shuguang and Shen Shuxie, who should be nominally the closest to her, rarely see each other after all. What's more, children tend to be forgetful, and Shen Shuxie wants to call her sister a lot. If she doesn't see her for a few days, she will forget about it.
So at this moment, although Shen Shuxie was attracted by her words and looked back, she pouted and said nothing.
Wei Changying wiped his face with a handkerchief from the hot water brought by Lianju, and scolded him: "This is your sister Ji. It's not like I haven't seen you before. Why didn't you call me?"
This boy seemed quite obedient. Although he was confused as to why Sister Ji was here again, he still called out obediently and bowed.
Ji Yiren didn't care that his mother's parents were unfamiliar with him. He stepped forward with a smile, stuffed the tiger's eye candy into Shen Shuxie's hand, and said shamelessly: "Be good, sister, I'll give you a meeting gift!"
These words made Cao Hong'er's face stiffen: Your adoptive mother sent someone to bring this tiger eye candy to entertain you...
But Ji Yiren is half a grown-up, and Wei Changying doesn't care much about things outside of him, so he can just laugh and cry for a moment.
After wiping his face, Shen Shuxie sobered up a little. The little face he had just washed, his skin was like mutton fat and jade, it was impossible to describe the flawless purity and beauty, his big eyes, and long eyelashes. The dark eyes straight up the bridge of the nose, the red lips and the white teeth made of jade, making people unable to take their eyes away!
Except for Ji Yiren who was still eating snacks, Cao Honger and others had their hearts melted by him. Wei Changying felt particularly proud. He couldn't help hugging him and kissing him. He smiled and coaxed: "Look, this Aunt Cao is here to take care of you for my mother. From now on, you have to listen to my aunt, okay?" ?”
Shen Shuxie turned around and glanced at Cao Hong'er, who quickly smiled at him in a flattering way.
As a result, she smiled sincerely, but Shen Shuxie turned back decisively, grabbed her mother's lapel and said, "No!"
… Do you think I’m not pretty enough? Not worthy of his master? This is how to do
Cao Honger suddenly became anxious.
Shen Shuxie continued, "Unless this aunt allows me to eat ten... no... twenty! Twenty glutinous rice balls! I only want her!"
The corner of Cao Hong'er's mouth twitched slightly: Even if you are not the son of Ming Peitang, but you are my son, I will not give you twenty glutinous rice balls. If you eat them every day, a grown man may not be able to eat them all day, okay
This thing is a tight store of food!
Of course Wei Changying would not agree. She smiled kindly at her son: "If you don't want this aunt, you won't have two glutinous rice balls every day!"
Shen Shuxie dropped her face and looked at her mother with tears in her eyes.
Wei Changying looked at him expressionlessly...
After a moment, Shen Shuxie, who was sure that her mother was unwilling to relent, had a disappointed look on her face, and her tears immediately put away her tears, sliding down listlessly from her lap. He walked up to Cao Hong'er and saluted: "Please ask Auntie for your troubles in the future!"
In the two years since he came to Xiliang, there have been several different aunts, so when he meets the new aunt, he doesn't even need to teach him.
Cao Hong'er didn't expect the threats from the two glutinous rice balls. The young master fell out so quickly. It was really dumbfounding.
But when her wish came true, she didn't care about such trivial matters. She stood up and returned the gift to him with a smile on her face. She praised Shen Shuxie for this and that, and she wanted to go out of her heart to promise that she would take care of this young master. alright.
Wei Changying looked at her excited look and nodded slightly, and said: "Aunt Cao has just arrived in Xiliang City. I'm afraid she has to go back to clean up. If it's convenient for aunt, she can come in two days. I am the only one sending envoys here to Xie'er. Look, it’s not like that. After my aunt comes over, I’ll let Lianmei and the others punish her for a while, and then I’ll let them come back.”
Although Cao Hong'er has an introducer whom Wei Changying trusts, he is still unfamiliar. It was impossible for Wei Changying to completely hand over his son to her all at once. The so-called asking the ambassador to help her is nothing more than supervision.
Everyone understands this.
According to Cao Hong'er's excitement at the moment, she wanted to tell Ji Yuan not to go back, and just let her stay and start coaxing this young master who was like a golden boy... But Ji Yiren coughed dryly, which finally made her calm down, and she remembered Shi Ji Chunmian. I am reminded that the Xiliang Shen family is a first-class wealthy family in the country, and the rules are very important.
Even if she passed Wei Changying's level, she still had to take advantage of Wei Changying to pack her things and memorize the rules and etiquette of doing things in a wealthy family with Ji Chunmian, so as not to be buried after only a few days. Home fired. Not only was Ji Chunmian embarrassed, Cao Hong'er didn't want this either.
So she reluctantly withdrew her gaze from Shen Shuxie and followed Ji Yiren to leave.
But before Ji Yiren left, he made a request: "Foster mother, can I stay with my uncle for a few days?"
Wei Changying thought for a while and then remembered that the uncle she was talking about was Lai Dayong, who was not related by blood, and not Ji Qubing.
When this girl gets older, people will have more to worry about.
If Ji Yiren was still young, Wei Changying would probably have said it casually - on the way back to Xiliang last year, Ji Chunmian begged for mercy, and after Wei Changying told her husband after returning to Xiliang, Shen Zangfeng went to Lai Dayong in the city I was assigned a casual position, which didn't require much work, but I received a decent salary... I just wanted to support myself for the Ji family's sake, which was not worth mentioning to the Shen family.
But Ji Yiren will be twelve years old soon, and they are about to get married.
Wei Changying did not answer but asked: "What did your mother say?"
"My mother asked me to spend more time with Yan'er these two days." Ji Yiren was very smart, and his eyes showed disappointment when he answered.
Sure enough, Wei Changying also said: "In that case, you should listen to your mother. Besides, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and your uncle will definitely go to Jiyuan to visit Mr. Ji. If you miss him, you can also meet him in Jiyuan. ." She thought to herself that Lai Dayong is still unmarried. What would it be like if your niece, who is about to get married but is not related by blood, comes to his house
Little does he know that Ji Yiren has another purpose... (To be continued)
