Lu Shaohua was expected to stay in Tongcheng for two days. Naturally, he would not just stay in the house and get moldy doing nothing, but was abducted by Wen Liang to go hunting on the first day.
Wen Liang and Lu Shaohua hit it off right away, and the two chatted very happily, and they became acquaintances.
Speaking of which, one is the son of Lord Zhen Guo, and the other is the son of the prime minister of the current dynasty. Both of them are outstanding figures of the younger generation in Beijing and are quite famous. However, the two only heard about each other's name but did not see him, and because Wen Liang had been staying in the border all these years and did not return, it was even more impossible to see him. Therefore, when they saw each other this time, they both found that the other person's personality was quite in line with their own tastes, and they talked endlessly together, and even felt a little bit like seeing each other late.
In the morning, at the beginning of breakfast, before Ananda had time to talk to her second brother, Wen Liang came waving his fan.
The handsome man who was still glamorous did not have the slightest hangover slump, and the demeanor of shaking the fan made countless maids fall in love with him.
"My lord, my concubine, Shaohua, good morning." Wen Liangchao immediately turned to the little bun sitting on the baby chair after sitting in the crowd and saluted, "Xiao Chuchu, good morning~~"
The little bun was scooping up the rice porridge in the bowl with a spoon to drink. When he saw Wen Liang, he put the spoon aside, looked at him cutely with big black eyes, with a serious expression on his face, and said childishly: " Wen, Uncle, good morning..."
The smile on Wen Liang's face deepened, he hugged Xiao Baozi to touch his head and face, and only put her back in place when Xiao Baozi's face wrinkled into a ball.
"Good morning, Mr. Wen, have you had breakfast? Let's eat together." Ananda greeted with a smile, and motioned for the maid to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.
"Then Zixiu would rather be obedient than respectful."
Wen Liang didn't refuse and sat down directly, which made Lu Shaohua take a few extra glances.
In addition to being busy with the war, Wen Liang often came to the palace to eat, kick, and sleep. Because Chu Baning didn't say a word, naturally no one dared to question it, so he just treated it like a home and came here whenever he liked. Go as you like. In the past few years, people in Su Wang's mansion have become accustomed to a certain military adviser treating this place as their own, so the maids are no strangers to it.
The men eat breakfast quietly. These are the sons of aristocratic families with a long history of family education, and they will not eat or sleep to the extreme. Only Ananda, a person with a dominant modern consciousness, has completely abandoned more than ten years of aristocratic education during his free life in the past few years, and has a little more randomness in his words and actions—of course, if this kind of casualness is not allowed by a certain man , she wouldn't do that either.
"Chuchu, don't throw away the green vegetables!" Ananda angrily threw the vegetable leaves picked out by the little bun on the table, and when he put the chopsticks down, he expressed his anger.
The little bun looked at her, then drank the porridge in silence with a sullen face.
Ananda was funny and annoyed, and even had an affair with her.
Ananda didn't say anything, put the cook's specially chopped boiled vegetables into her bowl, and said with a smile: "Children need to eat more vegetables to grow up, you know?"
Xiao Chuchu frowned, then opened her mouth, revealing her half-grown teeth, "Mother, itchy..."
Ananda leaned over to have a look, and it turned out that some teeth had grown back. Obviously, the newly grown teeth were very itchy, which made her uncomfortable. Ananda hugged her to cherish her, and coaxed her again, the little bun soon became obedient, and continued to drink porridge. Ananda touched her head and sighed, her daughter was so obedient that she felt very unfulfilled. However, if she is too naughty, she will be so angry that she wants to slap someone.
Chu Baning and Wen Liang were probably used to this scene, and their expressions remained unchanged. They only interjected a few words when Ananda was educating the children. There was a kind of surprise in Lu Shaohua's eyes. He silently looked at his younger sister with a bright smile, and her casualness when talking to the child. He felt that this was something he had never seen since he was a child, and it seemed... It was taken for granted.
Lu Shaohua understood in his heart that if a man was not willing to spoil her, she would not change like this. Perhaps, it will still be the prime minister's concubine who acts cautiously, obedient and obedient on the surface, with a sweet smile, and only reveals her true side in secret.
It seems that Su Wang really held her in his palm to dote on her. Lu Shaohua thought of the rumors about Ananda being a jealous wife in Beijing, and the fact that Ananda broke King Su's fate of "killing his wife and son". He really didn't know whether to laugh or sigh that his sister is lucky.
But well...
Lu Shaohua glanced at the little bun who was very similar to Chu Baning in both appearance and temper, and felt that it would be better for his sister to have a boy. After all, there is still a queen mother in Beijing who is watching, ready to make a move at any time. It's okay for them to stay in Tongcheng now, no one is in control. However, if you return to the capital, there is no boy around, and the empress dowager is not easy to get along with. It is easy to get a daughter-in-law. No matter how much a man loves you, it is impossible to protect him anytime, anywhere. when.
************
After breakfast, the three men went out together. After Ananda sent them out, he went to deal with some housework and then went to Xiaobaozi's place.
The room was covered with thick and soft blankets, and Xiao Baozi was practicing walking while holding on to a stool. The maid and nanny surrounded the surrounding nervously, ready to rescue Xiao Baozi at any time when he fell.
Seeing Ananda coming in, the maids and nuns hurriedly saluted, Ananda waved them off, and sat opposite his daughter, staring at her. Xiao Baozi is stubborn, only sixteen months old, with two radish legs that are trembling. When he is free, he will learn to walk with the embroidered pier placed around him. That serious and rigorous appearance, Ananda Every time I saw it, I wanted to pinch her bun face and bully her.
She didn't dare to bully a certain lord, but it was quite fun to bully a little bun who looked like a lord.
However, if the little bun is made to cry, she will be the one who will be distressed.
"Come on, Chuchu, mother will teach you how to walk." Ananda held her little hand and led her to walk.
When Xiao Baozi was sweating profusely and tired from walking, Ananda carried her to the pit and brought a clean towel aside to wipe off the sweat on her face, so as not to catch the cold from the wind when she was sweating.
"Hey, Chuchu, mother asked you something~"
When Xiao Baozi heard his name, he couldn't help but look up at her.
Ananda hugged her in front of her, kissed her tender and tender face, and said, "Chuchu, do you want a younger brother? Mother will give you a younger brother, okay?"
Little Baozi tilted her head. Obviously, with her IQ, it's too early to think about this. However, under Ananda's tireless teaching, Xiao Baozi can utter the word "brother" clearly.
Ananda hugged the little guy, smelling the milky scent on her body, feeling a little annoyed.
She has a lot to worry about recently, first of all, they are going back to Beijing. Although Chu Baning didn't tell her clearly, she could know from some daily traces that he stayed in Tongcheng for a few years in order to do a very important thing, and now that thing has almost been arranged, and he doesn't need to personally Sitting in the town, it is necessary to return to Beijing, but I don't know when the return date is set.
Secondly, if she returns to Beijing, she will have to face those annoying things in the capital again, especially the queen mother has always been prejudiced against her. In recent years, the queen mother has taken great pains to send people to Tongcheng, but the result is self-evident. So the queen mother already thinks that she is a jealous woman, and holding her son to prevent King Su from taking a concubine will definitely not give her any good looks. And the Queen Mother would also think that her stomach was not up to the mark, and she only gave birth to a loser who lost money—what a good excuse, the Queen Mother would definitely find ways to stuff people into the palace after they returned to Beijing. Even if in the end Chu Baning would still kick people out of the house unceremoniously, the queen mother would not blame her son, but would only take her anger out on her...
Speaking of children, Ananda wanted to grind his teeth.
In the past year, she finally understood that a certain man didn't want her to be born again. Of course, she could also guess the reason why he did this. Wasn't it because he was frightened by Sheng Chuchu and thought it was too dangerous for her to have a child, so she didn't care that she didn't have any offspring, and just planned to have a daughter in this life? up. After realizing this, Ananda felt both warm and worried. There is a man who loves you so much, what is there to be dissatisfied with as a woman
However, she is not satisfied with only one child!
When giving birth to Chu Chu, she really said that she didn't want to have another child because of the pain, but how could a woman's angry words during childbirth be trusted? After giving birth, I have long forgotten what happened during the birth. Especially watching her daughter grow up day by day, and then being influenced by her father's education to become this little old man, it gave her the idea of having another one.
If a son is born, the daughter will not have to work so hard. She can have a normal childhood without too many burdens.
Ananda now understands that Chu Baning intends to raise his daughter as a son, and there is nothing he should learn. If it is possible, Ananda believes that his daughter's future husband will be directly trained by himself, and then let the son-in-law become a burden or something...
Ananda gritted his teeth secretly, thinking that no matter what, he should have a son.
***********
Lu Shaohua and Wen Liang took the reins and rode their horses slowly in the mountains and forests. There were already some soldiers riding horses in front of them, hunting around.
"It seems that Tongcheng is not as desolate as the people in Beijing say. There are lush forests in this mountain, and there are a lot of wild animals. There is a lot of harvest in just one day. The price of fur here should not be expensive, right?" Lu Shaohua asked.
"It's two-thirds cheaper than the leather in Beijing." Wen Liang said bluntly.
Lu Shaohua was taken aback. He was not a businessman and never paid attention to such things. I believe that if someone who knows this method comes here to collect Goupi and resell them in the capital, I believe that the profit in the middle will definitely be a few days.
The two were talking while driving the horses. Wen Liang came to invite Lu Shaohua to hunt today, but Chu Baning went directly to the barracks and did not come with him. Seeing that he was busy, Wen Liang took the initiative to take over the job of entertaining the prince's second brother-in-law, and made sure that Lu Shaohua would feel at home.
After talking for a while, Lu Shaohua asked casually: "Zixiu, you and the prince seem very close..."
"Haha, of course you are close. In my heart, the prince is just like my father." Wen Liang smiled heartily.
Although they just met each other, Lu Shaohua is a close friend, and Wen Liang doesn't intend to hide anything. And he believed that what he said would only make people think he was joking, although he really thought so in his heart.
Hearing his answer, Lu Shaohua was embarrassed.
Wen Liang is twenty-two this year, and Chu Baning is only twenty-four. Their personalities are very different, and their father is too embarrassing. Moreover, he believed that Lord Lao Zhen would burst into tears when he heard his youngest son say this.
"So, Chuchu is like my younger sister. Seeing how my younger sister was raised by the prince, I am really worried that she will not be able to marry in the future. This is really troublesome." Wen Liang put on the appearance of a brother who is worried about his younger sister. Similar.
Lu Shaohua immediately took the opportunity to say: "The prince and the princess are still young, and they can have a child. Maybe the little princess will change after having a younger brother or sister." Lu Shaohua also knew that when he saw the little bun's words and deeds, he felt No matter how mature and sensible a child is, he won't look like his father in every word and deed, right? It must be Chu Baning who put his mind to influence education.
Speaking of this, the muscles on Wen Liang's face twitched slightly. How could Lu Shaohua, who had been staring at him carefully all this time, not understand that there was something hidden in it. However, this matter was related to the prince's private affairs, no matter how loud Wen Liang was, he would not yell about it. The topic ended here, Wen Liang quickly changed the topic, took Lu Shaohua into the forest, and started hunting.
***********
In the evening, Ananda saw her second brother and Wen Liang coming in shoulder to shoulder, and a few soldiers behind them brought in the fruits of their hunting today.
"Let's eat wild game tonight. By the way, send some to the city guard's mansion and the general's mansion, let them have a taste together." Ananda ordered, after all, there are so many prey, they can't finish it.
Wen Liang and Lu Shaohua are only responsible for hunting and eating, and they have no opinion on how to allocate them.
The dinner was indeed a table of wild game, and the three men ate deliciously, but Ananda liked the combination of meat and vegetables, so he didn't eat much.
Wen Liang originally wanted to drink today, but Chu Baning turned his eyes sideways, and immediately became sleepy, and he was extremely obedient.
Ananda is used to it, and he already knew that Chu Baning took care of Wen Liang like his son, if he didn't care, Wen Liang would come forward to seek abuse even if he was not used to it. Only when I saw Lu Shaohua for the first time, his face was full of black lines. Looking at this one who is in charge and the one who is being managed, he looks like a father and son. I can’t complain that Wen Liang will say that the prince is like his father... (Old Zhen Guogong really burst into tears Le: Me, me, I'm a god~~) Doesn't that mean that his sister is a gentle mother
Lu Shaohua himself was embarrassed first.
After the meal, the three men rushed into the study again.
Ananda shrugged, knowing that Lu Shaohua's arrival would definitely bring them some detailed information about Beijing. She was not interested in their topics, so she went to brainwash her daughter first. turn around.
When it comes to his daughter's temper, Ananda really wants to beat his heart! Obviously her daughter stayed with her most of the day, and she was the one who enlightened her daughter and taught her how to speak. Chu Baning only set aside half an hour a day to carry her daughter into the study. But in such a short half an hour, why did Xiao Baozi identify her father? There is no reason! Could it be that a father with a serious face is easier to get close to than a mother who is fragrant and soft, can laugh and amuse? ! !
Therefore, it is better to give birth to a son and educate the prince himself, and she accepts her daughter's education unceremoniously.
Ananda's eyes flickered, and under Rucui's worried eyes, he secretly made a plan.
***********
At night, when Chu Baning returned to his room, he found that someone had already gone to bed.
Thinking that she was too tired, Chu Baning didn't think much about it, and went to the ear room to take a bath lightly. After washing off the fatigue of the day, he went back to the room in a white shirt, and went to bed quietly.
Just lying down, when I habitually wanted to embrace the person sleeping inside, I didn't expect to encounter a piece of soft and greasy skin.
Under the light, the woman wearing only a lake blue bellyband and obscene pants leaned softly into his arms, slipped one hand into his clothes, stroked his solid chest, and boldly stretched out a leg to rub against his chest. A certain little beast in the center of his leg quickly woke up the sleeping little beast.
"Ananda, you haven't slept yet?" He tightened his arms around her waist, allowing her to tease jerkyly, and enjoyed the other party's active teasing very much.
"Ok… "
Ananda teased him hard, feeling that the little beast she tortured had grown up, and was quite satisfied.
"My lord~~" Ananda lay in his arms, biting his hot earrings lightly, and said softly, "Let's have another child."
As soon as she finished speaking, his arms around her waist tightened in vain, making her almost cry out in pain.
Is this reaction too big
When Ananda was thinking about whether to do ideological work for him and express his determination, he turned over and pressed her whole body under him, staring quietly at her face with a pair of quiet black eyes, sharp and compelling It made all the hairs on her body stand on end.
