Chapter 1952 Admonition
After the recognition ceremony, Qi Xi, Fu Song and Xiao San had errands to do, so they went to do them, while Xiao Si returned to the Imperial College.
Shushu also wanted to take the child back home.
Stopped by Zhu Liang.
"It's rare for my nephew and niece to come over, so they have to stay for at least half a day..."
He did not mention Lady Bo because he hoped that she would stay at home for a few more days.
Xiaowu and Xiaoqi were standing nearby, also watching eagerly.
Shushu looked at Mrs. Bo.
Mrs. Bo said, "Come back in the afternoon!"
Niguzhu couldn't help but hold Qingru's hand: "Second aunt..."
Qingru is the eldest daughter and sister. She is used to taking care of her younger siblings. She is gentle and patient with children.
Niguzhu likes new things and does not dislike old things. He likes both Zhang and Qingru.
Zhuliang didn't have a chance to hold her niece, so she had to look after her two older nephews. She loved Xiao's mother Fengsheng and was close to Akdan as well.
The couple took their children to see the new house, and Xiaowu and Xiaoqi also went with them.
Jueluo and Zhang, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, accompanied Madam Bo and talked with Shushu.
"Now that Zhuliang has finished his job, when will he go to Rehe?" asked the lady of the Bo family.
Jueluo said, "We have to wait for the emperor to return to the capital. After the emperor leaves, it will be the end of March at the earliest, and the beginning of April at the latest."
Mrs. Bo asked, "Where are you going to prepare Xiao San and Xiao Si's new room?"
The Dong E family really has no shortage of yards.
There are two large houses, each with two corridors and five courtyards.
Jueluo said, "I was just about to discuss this with you. The third child is in the west mansion, in front of Fusong's courtyard. As for the fourth child, do you think it's ok to put him next to Zhuliang's courtyard?"
Mrs. Bo nodded and said, "Okay, you two have discussed it, let's arrange it this way!"
Whether it is letting Zhuliang and his wife kowtow to the lady today, or placing Xiaosan's new house in the Dutong Mansion, it is all to prevent future troubles.
Xiao San is the second legitimate son of the Dong'e family. In his early years, Sunu had instigated some unnecessary things. If he had any bad intentions, a quarrel between the brothers would be imminent. It is good that the elders and the younger ones are clearly distinguished now.
Zhang was nearby and didn't know that the Dong'e family had this hidden danger in its early years. She thought that if Zhu Liang and his wife left Beijing for work and their family was separated, then the Xiaosan couple might be the ones who stayed in the Dutong Mansion to serve their parents-in-law. That's why she arranged Xiaosan's new house in the Dutong Mansion.
Shushu thought of Xiaowu.
In the future, I will still have to pay attention to the sale of houses in the Zhenghongqi area, and buy any that are for sale.
In fact, the Dong E family’s mansion occupies a large area.
Needless to say, the Bo Mansion will not be split up.
The Dutong Mansion has two wings and five courtyards. It can be divided into two houses and is very spacious.
However, Qi Xi and his wife had already told their children that the house over there would be left to Xiao Qi after a hundred years, and they had no intention of dividing it.
There are simply too many sons.
If it is split into two places, there is no way to give them both.
From the top row, it should be given to the third and fourth grade, and from the bottom row, it should be given to the seventh and sixth grade.
There is no portion for Xiaowu.
Among the brothers, Xiaowu and Xiaoqi are at a disadvantage.
There will always be dissatisfaction, so it is better not to split it up.
Everyone is older than Xiaoqi, so they are more tolerant towards the younger brother.
If it was distributed to brothers of similar age instead of being given to oneself, one would feel unhappy.
*
In Zhuliang's new house.
Niguzhu looked at the red patch in front of him and liked it very much. He shook Qingru's hand and said, "Second aunt's house is beautiful..."
In fact, the new house has much less furniture than an ordinary new house.
Qingru had a lot of furniture as a dowry, but some of them were put directly into the warehouse and not displayed.
Qingru could bear to take those with different patterns to her husband's house, but she couldn't put them in front of her.
However, having few furnishings also has its advantages. It makes the room look spacious, simple and elegant.
In addition, it was a newly-married occasion, and all the furnishings were covered with red brocade, which looked rich and festive.
Qingru looked at Niguzhu and said, "Then, would you like to stay with your second aunt? Your second aunt will also prepare a room for you?"
Who doesn’t love a chubby little girl?
It was my precious niece whom my husband had mentioned many times.
Niguzhu thought about it, shook his head and said, "I won't stay. Even if I don't go home, I will live with Guo Luoma. I can't delay my second uncle and second aunt from giving birth to my little brother..."
Qingru's face turned red all of a sudden.
Zhu Liang also felt a little uncomfortable and went to see Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi.
Xiaoqi didn't know what was going on and was talking to Fengsheng.
Xiaowu looked away and pretended not to hear.
Children speak without restraint, and this is exactly what is happening right now.
When Niguzhu saw his uncle talking to his two brothers, he went over.
Xiaoqi knew that his nephews had started school and was asking them what they were learning.
Feng Sheng said: "Three Character Classic and Mandarin."
Akdan said: "Abacus, chess, go, animal chess..."
Niguzhu said: "Horse stance, skipping rope, kicking shuttlecock, listening to stories..."
Xiao Qi listened with envy on his face.
Niguzhu immediately hugged Xiaoqi's arm and said, "Uncle, come with us. We can go to school and play together tomorrow..."
When the children came out of the new house, they went to Jueluo to ask for his help.
Jueluo shook his head and said, "Your uncle is also going to start learning. The family has hired a teacher and he has returned to his hometown. He will start studying soon..."
Dong E's family had a clan school, but they didn't send children that young. They had to be six or seven years old.
Before that, you can learn at home.
Niguzhu said: "That will be next month. You can stay at my house this month."
Shushu was standing by, looking at Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi was holding Fengsheng's hand.
The uncle and nephew have somewhat similar features, like brothers.
The other children can still keep each other company, but Xiaoqi is too lonely.
The sixth grade student next to him only stays at home for a few days a year, and the fifth grade student above him is almost ten years younger than him and is always studying.
Shushu said, "Ernie, let Xiaoqi stay over there for a while, he'll have company too."
Jueluo looked at his son.
Xiao Qi pleaded: "Ernie..."
Jueluo looked at Shushu and said, "Then go ahead. You will only stay for a few days and then come back."
"Uh-huh……"
Shushu responded.
We always have to see if Xiaoqi is used to staying outside first.
If you are used to living here, it would be convenient to stay there for ten days or half a month.
If you are not used to living there, just focus on your children.
As for letting Xiaoqi be Fengsheng's study partner, Shushu had thought about it before, but was rejected by her.
Although being the emperor's grandson's study companion is similar to being the emperor's son's study companion, it is also a future.
Especially for the eldest son like Fengsheng, his companions would start to become the guards of the princes in the future.
But Shushu still felt it was inappropriate.
The uncle and nephew have become master and servant, which is not good.
Judging from the way the Ninth Prince and Gui Dan get along, it cannot be called family affection.
Outsiders would also feel that the Dong E family took advantage of the prince's wife.
After lunch, Shushu and Mrs. Bo took the four children back home.
Zhu Liang took Xiao Wu and rode them back to Beile's Mansion.
Xiaoqi's room had not been cleaned up yet. After asking Fengsheng, Shushu first placed Xiaoqi in Fengsheng's room.
He went back to clean up the room in the east wing of the main courtyard and moved Xiaoqi there.
After Xiaoqi was settled, Shushu went to Ning'an Hall and stayed with Mrs. Bo.
"No matter what my father and mother think, I will not let Amu go. Amu and I agreed to take care of him in his old age. I am counting on Amu for Niguzhu and Xiaosi..."
The west wing is small, so Xiao Si is temporarily placed there, and they will have to move to the yard later.
The Fengsheng brothers cannot always live in the back building. If the house is bigger, they will have to have a yard.
However, the inner school is in front of Ning'an Hall, so Madam Bo will still have to look after that place when the time comes.
Mrs. Bo didn't nod or shake her head, she just said, "Earlier I was thinking of leaving the bulk of my private property to you and the smaller portion to Niguzhu, but now that I have received the gift from Zhuliang and his wife, I have to leave some for them."
If she were more thoughtful, she could give part of the property to her nephews, but the lady had been thoughtful all her life and didn't want to do that anymore.
As Zhu Liang is the heir to the title, people who offer sacrifices and incense to him in the future should be considerate of him.
Shushu said: "But your intention is to show that in my heart, you, Amu, are my greatest treasure, much more valuable than those properties..."
Mrs. Bo couldn't help hugging Shushu and said, "In Amu's heart, no one can surpass you. You are also Amu's great treasure. Neither Niguzhu nor Zhuliang and his wife can do that."
Shushu feels happy.
Of course she knew the Countess's preference.
But the lady's voice was choked with sobs, and she did not look happy.
Shushu raised her head and saw that Mrs. Bo's eyes were red.
"Amu..."
Shushu was a little confused.
Madam Bo lowered her voice and said, "It's hard for women to go through childbirth. Your father has been strong all his life, but he has given birth frequently and even had a child late in life. Now he can't hold on any longer. You mustn't be stupid..."
Shushu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Amu, I know the severity of the situation..."
I have three sons now, that’s enough.
She also didn't want to go through the life and death stage again.
I got lucky once and twice, but what if I fail the third time?
Madam Bo exhaled and whispered, "Wait a few years, Fengsheng will be old. If the palace despises your lack of offspring and would rather have a concubine's son than have any more of their own..."
By then, the age difference between the illegitimate son and the eldest son will be big, so there is no need to worry about demons.
If the love between Shushu and the Ninth Prince needs Shushu to keep giving birth, then Madam Bo would rather Shushu figure it out sooner...
