As soon as these words came out, Xu Bao immediately lost his voice and stared at his younger brother with wide eyes, while Ye Jiao and Qi Yun looked at each other in disbelief.

My youngest son, he hasn't called his father and mother yet, but the first word he said was to call his brother

After all, it is not unusual for the twins to be one year old in less than two months. It is not unusual for them to be able to speak. Usually the couples and wives have taught them to call their parents, but they have not spoken yet.

But Ning Bao opened his mouth first, but it was Xu Bao who shouted...

Ye Jiao's face immediately had a smile, it seemed that she was very happy for the child, Qi Yun smiled first, and then, as if thinking of something, looked at Xu Bao, then Ning Bao, but didn't speak. , seems to have some calculations in mind.

But no matter how others react, Xu Bao is now the happiest one.

This "brother" shouted into the little doll's heart. The first time Xu Bao, who has always been a junior, was called brother, Xiao Chuan smiled and narrowed his eyes. He looked inside, expecting that Ning Bao could shout again.

But Ning Bao ignored him. Seeing that he had called Xu Bao, Xu Bao calmed down and finally stopped arguing with him. Ning Bao slumped and lay down again, hugging his woolen ball tightly. , closed his eyes, and fell asleep after a while.

Xu Bao was a little anxious. He had forgotten what he wanted to convince his younger brother to study. He just wanted to hear his younger brother shout to him again, so he wanted to reach out and drag him, but Ye Jiao took him into his arms.

"Mother?" Xu Bao looked at Ye Jiao in confusion, as if he didn't quite understand why Ye Jiao wanted to prevent him from falling in love with his younger brother.

Ye Jiao touched her son's head, which was a circle bigger than his peers, and smiled and lowered his head to kiss him on the forehead.

The little ginseng usually stayed with the dragon and the phoenix, but now the temper of the dragon and the phoenix is obvious. Ruyi is lively and cheerful, and Ning Bao is smart and quiet. If you compare it, Ye Jiao thinks that Ning Bao's temper is very similar to Qi Yun.

She doesn't speculate on people's hearts, but her husband knows in his heart that he is the most stubborn, and what he wants to do must be done before he stops.

Since Ning Bao wanted to sleep, let him sleep.

On the other hand, Qi Yun had figured out the temperaments of the three children early on. Seeing the grievances on Xu Bao's face, he reached out and pinched Xu Bao's little fleshy cheek.

If Ning Bao wants to sleep now, it's better not to disturb him, otherwise, if this child really holds revenge, it will take a long time for this little fat man to hear that brother.

Ye Jiao smiled and said, "Xubao, what have you learned from Mr. Feng these days?"

Xu Bao forgot what he was wronged just now, just laughed and reported to Ye Jiao his current learning progress, and also praised Brother Shitou and Liusi by the way. All good in the mouth.

As long as someone accompanies him to read a book, he is happy.

Ning Bao finally had a chance to sleep well, and did not wake up until the carriage returned to the house.

But for a few days, Ning Bao didn't speak again, just like before, besides eating and playing, or lying down and sleeping, keeping himself round and comfortable.

Even Ye Jiao felt that Ning Bao's brother said it by chance, and he himself probably didn't understand what it meant.

But Xu Bao didn't believe that he didn't understand. He was very persistent in taking half an hour every day to sit face to face with Ning Bao, persevering in teaching him to call his brother, even if Ning Bao ignored him, Xu Bao would not stop, sometimes he would Even Ruyi was so upset that he opened his mouth to chew on Xubao, but Xubao remained the same.

Finally, when Ning Bao was really upset, he opened his mouth again and called out "Brother".

Now Xu Bao became proud, and ran to Ye Jiao and Qi Yun's room with short legs and smashed the door.

At this time, it was already nightfall, and the two people in the room were about to fall asleep. When Ye Jiao heard the knock on the door, she sat up and opened the bed tent slightly: "Who?"

Before he could speak, Qi Yun, who was lying down, said, "It must be Xu Bao."

In this mansion, the number of people who dare to knock on the door is as many as one hand can count, and only Xu Bao can knock on the door so hard.

Sure enough, Xu Bao quickly opened the door, ran in with a bang, ran into the inner room triumphantly, stood in front of the bed, and announced, "Brother called me, called brother, brother is smart! "

Ye Jiao knew as soon as she heard it that this child was probably pestering Ning Bao for a long time, but now she finally got a response and was naturally excited.

And Mrs. Mo, who came quickly behind, was a little flustered, for fear that they would say that she was not optimistic about Xu Bao, so she whispered, "Second Young Master, Second Young Grandma."

Ye Jiao waved her hand, didn't mind, smiled and said, "Go take care of those two, Xu Bao sleeps with us today." After saying that, she picked Xu Bao up, asked him to sit on the bed, and then stretched out her hand Help him take off his little clothes.

Madam Mo responded, walked away quickly, and closed the door carefully.

As for Xu Bao, he held his head high and let his mother unbutton the plate, but his eyes were rolling. He looked at Ye Jiao, and then at Qi Yun, who was also sitting up. He opened his mouth and showed a big smile.

Ye Jiao couldn't help but patted his belly: "What are you laughing at?"

Xu Bao's voice was soft and waxy: "Ning Bao must like me."

Hearing this, Qi Yun raised his head and glanced at Xu Bao, while Little Ginseng smiled and said, "Then Xu Bao, tell me, what did my brother just tell you?"

Xu Bao, who had already taken off a small apron and small pants, immediately regained his energy, got up from the bed, quickly climbed between the two, and got in from the quilt, hugging his fleshy little arms and calves directly. Holding Ye Jiao's arm, she happily said, "Ning Bao called my brother."

Ye Jiao nodded: "Then what?"

Xu Bao raised his chin proudly: "Then he said I was noisy."

Qi Yun: …

Ye Jiao: …

Xu Bao doesn't think there's anything wrong with this. Anyway, it's enough that his brother is close to him. Otherwise, why would his brother only call himself and not others

Seeing that he was happy, Ye Jiao laughed along with her, turned her body and half hugged the fat doll, reached out and patted his back to coax him to sleep.

Xu Bao was so young, he just tossed it again, and fell asleep not long after.

But after he closed his eyes and breathed slowly, Qi Yun reached out and hugged Xu Bao into his arms.

Ye Jiao looked at him puzzled, and heard Qi Yun whisper: "Xu Bao is not honest in sleeping, don't disturb you, you go to bed first, I will watch him."

The little ginseng blinked and said involuntarily, "Would you like to take him back?"

"It's okay, I'm not looking back."

Ye Jiao just remembered that when Xu Bao was a child, whether he wanted to breastfeed or urinate at night, Qi Yun would hold him. When the twins slept with them, Qi Yun would not take care of the children.

The original intention was naturally not wanting to tire Ye Jiao, but after finishing it, Qi Yun, the father, and the children have always had a good relationship.

This allowed the three children to stay close to Qi Erlang even though they couldn't see Qi Erlang very much during the day.

Ye Jiao was relieved, nodded, leaned over and placed a light kiss on Qi Yun's mouth, and said, "It's hard work." Then she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

So the room quieted down, and before you knew it, when the willow shoots on the moon, Xu Bao opened his eyes.

He wakes up at a fixed time at night, and he doesn't need to call anyone, he just rolls over and gets out of bed.

It's just that when Xu Bao got up this time, he saw only his mother sleeping on the bed, and his father was gone.

Xu Bao immediately put on his small shoes and went out the door.

Tie Zi, who was guarding outside, saw him, he walked over, crouched down and asked with a smile, "Master Xu, do you want me to help?"

After ordinary Xubao got up at night, he used the chamber pot, and even reached out to let him hug him for a stroll, and then he would go back.

But this time Xu Bao didn't extend his hand, but asked in a milky voice, "Where's Daddy?"

Tie Zi opened his mouth and was about to answer when he saw the door of the wing of the dragon and phoenix tires opening.

Qi Yun came out with Ning Bao in his arms, neatly placed the small chamber pot on the ground, and urinated for him, but instead of hissing, he said slowly, "Ning Bao, call Daddy."

Ning Bao yawned and ignored him.

Qi Yun pinched his chubby legs perseveringly, and said, "Call Dad, and learn to call Mommy."

Ning Bao raised his head and looked at Qi Yun, his head tilted and he fell asleep again.

Tie Zi, who was standing opposite, couldn't help but look away, thinking that it was no wonder that the second young master took the initiative to take care of the young master and the girl at night these days. It was for this reason.

Xu Bao watched eagerly, and then suddenly became happy.

Sure enough, my brother likes me the most.

So he walked back to the house with happy steps, put the chamber pot in place, and then climbed back to bed with a smile on his face.

And after Qi Yun's hard work, the dragon and phoenix finally opened up.

The two little guys learned to call mother in tandem, and then called back to father, and then they were able to write down a lot of words, and it was much easier after opening their mouths once.

Even though Ye Jiao was happy for a while when Xu Bao called her mother, but now seeing them calling her, Ye Jiao was still happy, hugging her from left to right, kissing each person on the face, and smiling with squinting eyes.

And Qi Yun didn't mind at all that they called mother and father first, but was extremely pleased.

In Qi Ershao's eyes, Ye Jiao was the best in the world. The two children agreed with him, and they were indeed his own sons and daughters.

Ye Jiao also became more interested in teaching the two dolls how to speak.

Xu Bao has an overly clever head. What he says and what he does are never forgotten. Basically, he can remember the words Ye Jiao said once, and he can remember them for a long time. Later, he was not taught by Ye Jiao at all. He speaks, but covers the little guy's ears when he says something he can't hear.

The dragon and the phoenix are different. They don't have such a distinctive memory. Even if Ning Bao is smart, his memory is not comparable to his brother's.

And Ning Bao was waiting for Ruyi intentionally or unintentionally. He would only say what Ruyi learned to say. If Ruyi couldn't, he would not open his mouth and just stared at Ruyi.

Xiao Ruyi is not in a hurry at all, she is cheerful, she often learns one thing and forgets the other, but this is very interesting. Ruyi's coaxing" made Ye Jiao smile every time, and she was very enthusiastic about learning to talk with them.

That day Shi Shi and Hua Ning both arrived at Qi's house, Ye Jiao didn't want to leave the child, but took her with her.

Now, Hua Ning got married, Shi Shi reconciled, although one became a marriage and the other broke up in one shot, it was a good thing for them to set off firecrackers.

The days have stabilized, and the contacts have increased.

Hua Ning was originally the honor of the princess, with brocade clothes and jade food. He didn't have any troubles from childhood to adulthood. Now that he has got what he wanted, he is naturally happy every day.

Although Shi Shi was alone, it was a great joy for her to be able to leave the prison of the Wen family. Life was like a new life, and now thinking about the past is like a previous life.

Recently, Hua Ning and Shi's contacted, because Shi's orchard was well managed and expanded. Outside, there was Qi's waterway to rely on, and inside, Hua Ning came forward to support and sell. Shi's money became more and more. more.

In fact, Shi Shi knew in his heart that Hua Ning was mostly looking at Shi Tianrui's face for himself.

But what about this? It's a good thing that my brother and sister-in-law have skills. As a sister, she is naturally happy for them. Now Hua Ning's attitude just proves that Shi Tianrui's future is limitless, and it's too late to be happy.

Today, Shi came with a basket of grapes, and Hua Ning took the cakes. Seeing that the sun was just right, they went to the garden and sat at the stone table, next to a small bed with dragon and phoenix fetuses. Thick pads save them from falling.

Today, Ning Bao and Ruyi are both able to stand up, and the trembling ones can still take two steps, but they are walking very erratically.

The usual practice walking is on the blanket, and when you are next to it, you still have to move the cot out to prevent them from hurting themselves.

While they were peeling the grapes, Ruyi was standing in the cot, clutching the railing, and watching eagerly.

Ning Bao, however, sat upright, stretched out his hand and pulled the ball of wool, watching the ball roll from here to there and back again, enjoying himself.

Ye Jiao squeezed a grape and put it in her mouth, the mouth was full of sweet fragrance, she immediately laughed, and said, "This is delicious, can children eat it?"

Shi Shi, who was picking grape seeds with a silver stick, said hurriedly, "You can't eat them directly. These grapes are soft and smooth, and they are big or small. If a child can't bite them and swallow them, they will easily choke."

Mrs. Mo, who was beside her, nodded again and again. She had many children in her care, so she naturally knew this.

Hua Ning has an idea: "Then it will be broken, just feed it with a spoon."

Ye Jiao nodded, and Xiao Su hurriedly asked for the bowl and spoon.

Shi Shi put the whole grape flesh with the seeds shaved in Ye Jiao's plate, and picked up another one, but looked around and asked, "Why do you only see Ning Bao? He Ruyi, what about Xu Bao?"

Ye Jiao ate the grapes and replied, "Xu Bao is reading, I guess he will be able to come over in a while."

Hua Ning was a little surprised when he heard the words: "How old is he, why does he have to study?"

But Ye Jiao didn't think it was strange, and said with a smile: "Xubao likes it, and he has a company to study, as long as he is comfortable."

Shi Shi, who was on the side, couldn't help laughing when he heard this, with envy in his eyes, but it was just envy.

Although she never gave birth, she also took care of the children.

When Sun gave birth to her third son, she was weak after giving birth. Although she didn't like Sun, she was a proper wife and ordered someone to take care of Sun, while she took care of Sun's children for a while.

The child was thin and small, and after being raised with her for three months, she gained weight in vain.

Shi shi raised him well and devoted himself to him. He learned a lot of things to know when taking care of a child. Later, Sun shi was sad for a while when the child was leaving, but when the child grew up a little, he saw She called her a bad woman, but Shi didn't feel too sad.

Shi Shi himself felt strange at that time, whether he was cold-hearted.

Now that she saw these two dolls, she was genuinely happy, and when she thought about it back then, she realized that she was just despairing and unsympathetic to the Wen family at that time, and that was how she was cold-hearted.

Just when Shi Shi was silent, Xu Bao had already run over.

Seeing Ye Jiao holding grapes in her hand, Xu Bao immediately let go of Mrs. Mo's hand, trotted to Ye Jiao's side, stretched out her hand to hug Ye Jiao's calf tightly, looked up eagerly, and said in a soft voice, "Mother. "

Ye Jiao looked down at him and said with a smile, "Xu Bao finished his homework today?"

Xu Bao replied obediently: "It's done, I wrote three characters." After speaking, he reached out and took the big characters from Mrs. Mo and showed them to Ye Jiao.

Most of the children like him can't write, or they practice in the sand table, but Xu Bao is smart, he can read and write early, he is well raised, and he has some strength, so Feng Xiucai taught him to use a brush.

However, writing is a work of strength. All postures must be correct, and it is also tiring. Mr. Feng only asks Xu Bao to write three times a day.

But when these three words are put out, Shi Shi and Hua Ning are all compliments.

Always have infinite patience with children, and they are the same. Now that Xu Bao has written words, even if it is simply "one", "person", and "day", it is difficult to recognize it, but it is great to be able to pick up a pen. of.

Only Ye Jiao pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, and did not speak for a long time.

Because she found that the word "son" is a bit round...

Whether it was because of her lack of strength, her poor writing skills, or her unintentional writing, Ye Jiao felt that Little Fatty was a bit similar to her own writing.

The little ginseng is very puzzled, why Xubao remembers like Xianggong, but can't write like Xianggong

I want to talk to Xianggong in the evening, and later let Mr. Feng teach Xu Bao to write and write.

At this moment, a rooster crowing was heard in the distance.

This is already normal, Ye Jiao is not surprised, even the three children did not respond, but Hua Ning looked up in surprise and asked, "It's already afternoon, why is the rooster still crowing?"

Ye Jiao smiled, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and said in her mouth, "That's Xiao Hei, the big cock we brought from our hometown is very majestic. He usually calls on time in the morning, but his temperament is a little more lively. If there is something wrong, I will shout, but it is not unpleasant, so I will let it go."

Xiao Su on the side bowed her head slightly, feeling very grateful for Ye Jiao's compassion.

Hua Ning also remembered the black chicken, not because he had seen it, but because there were many objects made of cock feathers in Ye Jiao's room, such as paper kites and shuttlecocks. Last time Hua Ning received a gift from Ye Jiao. Here are five or six feather shuttlecocks.

She couldn't help laughing and said, "You raised this cock really well. The hair is so bright. I kicked the shuttlecock for a long time without losing any hair."

Shi Shi was mashing the grape flesh in a small bowl, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but say, "How old is this little black?"

Ye Jiao didn't think about this, she turned to look at Xiao Su.

Xiao Su hurriedly said, "There are still seven or eight years old."

Shi Shi snorted. She was born in a poor family and raised chickens and ducks when she was a child. She was naturally aware of this, and said, "Ordinary roosters have only three or five years' lifespan, but the stronger ones are five or six years old. ."

Ye Jiao didn't expect that Xiao Hei could live for so long in addition to growing hair like cutting leeks, plucking stubble after stubble, which is really amazing.

If it wasn't for the fact that she had never seen a ghost here, she really would have thought that this little black would become a ghost.

And Xu Bao, who has been ignored all the time, is a little anxious.

He was not a noisy child, he only held Ye Jiao's calf and shook it, stared at the grape flesh in Ye Jiao's hand when Ye Jiao looked over, and said with a glutinous mouth: "Mother, it hurts Xu. precious."

Ye Jiao listened to these four words the most. Every time Xu Bao said it, she would not respond.

But she also remembered what Shi Shi said just now, so she broke apart the grape flesh and fed it into Xu Bao's small mouth piece by piece.

On the other side, Shi Shi also smashed the grape flesh and used a silver spoon to feed it to Ruyi, who had been staring at it for a long time.

Ruyi opened his mouth with a smile and waited, Ning Bao also stood up when he saw this, and walked to the railing swayingly, Shui Liang's eyes blinked, and he opened his mouth and waited.

So Shi Shi found that the two children had a very tacit understanding, one eating and the other waiting, after feeding one and the other, Shi always felt an inexplicable sense of urgency.

But she enjoyed it, laughing while feeding, with a bright smile.

Originally, Hua Ning wanted to help, but when he saw Shi Shi's smile, he stopped thinking and just peeled the grapes and ate them, but didn't say anything.

Maybe Hua Ning first contacted Shi for the sake of Shi Tianrui's relationship, but since the beginning of the relationship, she really likes this person and feels sorry for her ups and downs.

Shi Shi is a person who can endure. He has lived in the Wen family until now, and he has also relied on forbearance to hold back all his anger and not reveal a single bit to the Wen family. Only then can he smile and watch the Wen family collapse after leaving.

This thought was very heavy and deep, Hua Ning even knew that Shi Shi secretly added a lot of firewood to the Wen family's fire.

It's just that Hua Ning has seen a lot of life and death in the harem since he was a child. Instead, he admires women who can make plans for him.

Now that I see Shi Shi finally rejoicing, I feel relieved.

Sure enough, little dolls are the cure for everything.

Shi Shi quickly got acquainted with the dragon and phoenix. Now Shi Shi, who is already open-minded, has lost the half-dead and decadent appearance before. He speaks gently, and the grapes are very sweet. The dragon and phoenix are naturally like.

Before leaving, they could already call Shi Shi's "auntie".

Shi Shi naturally couldn't bear them, but she had to go to the orchard again, so she said goodbye and left Qi's house.

After all, it is an industry that you will depend on to survive in the future, so it is normal to be nervous.

Hua Ning stayed in Qi Mansion, ready to catch up with Ye Jiao.

But at this moment, there was a loud noise in the distance.

Hua Ning frowned slightly, and looked towards the courtyard wall with a pair of phoenix eyes.

Ye Jiao was at ease, and said while eating the cake, "It's okay, there must be a commotion next door." Then Ye Jiao said to Mrs. Mo, "Go and ask, if you have something to tell Xianggong, if there is nothing else, just Leave it alone."

"Next door?" Hua Ning was stunned for a moment, then remembered, "Did you say Wen's family, why haven't they moved out yet."

Ye Jiao didn't care at all, and said, "Xiang Gong said that you are not in a hurry. You have to leave sooner or later. Don't be in a hurry." Then she took another bite, "Hua Ning, what kind of dessert is this, it's delicious."

Hua Ning stopped asking more about the Wen family, and replied with a smile: "Chestnut cake, if you like it, I will have someone make more and bring it to you."

Ye Jiao nodded immediately: "Okay."

At this time, Mrs. Mo came over, bowed to Ye Jiao and said, "Second Young Mistress, I found out."

Ye Jiao had chestnut cake in her mouth, and it was difficult to speak, so Hua Ning picked up Xu Bao and put it on her lap, and asked Ye Jiao, "A good thing or a bad thing?"

Mrs. Mo was also unsure, and said, "The matter of the house next door will not be a good thing."

Ye Jiao's eyes immediately turned to Xu Bao, Hua Ning understood and knew that the little guy was smart and remembered things quickly, so he couldn't let him hear this, so Hua Ning stretched out his hand to cover Xu Bao's small ears, and said: "Now Okay, tell me what's going on."

Mrs. Mo immediately said, "It's the next-door discussion. When Aunt Sun found out, it was noisy. As a result, one accidentally fell and lost the child, and then the chaos started."
