The little Fubao in the deserted village made all the dignitaries in the court go crazy with envy

Yan family.

living room.

Yan Changqing handed tea to the elder in the upper seat and bowed respectfully, "I am Yan Lin, courtesy name Changqing, and I am honored to meet you, sir."

Xu Hanzhang took the tea but didn't drink it immediately. He squinted his eyes and looked the pretty and slender boy in front of him up and down for several times, shaking his head and muttering, "Why is the boy so good-looking? At first glance, he looks like an embroidered pillow."

“……” Madam Du rolled her eyes quietly.

Xu Enhui sat on the side seat with his hand on his forehead. He was tired and could not do anything anymore.

Perhaps her grandfather is the only one in the world who dares to say that the emperor's most beloved little prince is a useless person.

Fortunately, he left the government early, otherwise my grandfather's mouth would have earned the family several "exiles".

Yan Changqing's expression remained unchanged, neither surprised nor insulted, "Thank you for the compliment, sir. Appearance is innate, given by parents, beauty and ugliness are just a skin. If I can get your guidance, sir, I will definitely be able to embroider a beautiful appearance with gold and jade inside."

"Have you thought about it? I am different from those old pedants in the Imperial College. I can't teach you any rules, manners, or morals. I am not a rule-abiding person, so I can't teach you."

"If my father wanted me to be a person who abides by the rules and is regarded by others as a prince whose words and deeds are impeccable, he would not have asked you to come here."

Xu Hanzhang carefully looked at the young boy again, then he opened the lid of the tea with a smile and took a sip of tea. "Once a teacher, always a teacher. I am hungry, let the master eat first."

Then he smacked his lips, looked at the tea in the cup, and said in surprise, "This tea is wonderful. After taking a sip, it feels like my brain is frozen. Aunt Du, is this the Baixiang tea from Yuxi Village? Bring me a pot! Little girl, you should try it too. It's really good tea! The rumors are true!"

"..."

Xu Enhui covered his face with his hands and didn't even have the strength to speak.

……

Dinner has been served in the Lin family’s kitchen.

Lin Jiang took a hot bath, changed his wet clothes, and sat at the dining table refreshed. He was ready to tell his family what had happened while eating, but he was beaten to the punch by his family.

Mrs. Lin was very excited. "This afternoon, another matchmaker came to our house to propose marriage. She also brought a portrait of a girl. Jiang'er, I will show you the portrait after dinner. Now that our family's life is getting better, and you are already in your twenties, it's time to settle down."

"You can't work on a rainy day, so you can only rest at home. The matchmaker knows this, so she comes here in the rain to block people." Lin Erhe picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, happily teasing, "Jiang'er, there is more than one matchmaker here, and they are all talking about girls from good families. You should take a good look at them and give an accurate answer whether it will work out or not, so as to save the girl's youth."

Lin Jiang, "..." What does this have to do with anything? He doesn't have the mood to do that right now. He just wants to grow the Hundred-Angle Grass well.

"Mom, please give them all back. I don't want to get married for the time being. There are three brothers in our family. We already have the eldest and second brothers to carry on the family line. They don't need me, right?"

"Then you have to give me a definite answer, right? If we don't get married now, will we never get married in our entire lives?" Mrs. Lin was helpless. She was anxious because she saw that Jiang'er didn't have any interest in her at all. She was really afraid that her youngest son was heartbroken by what happened and couldn't get over it, and would give up the idea of ​​getting married.

Isn't that just throwing the baby out with the bathwater?

Mrs. Lin advised cryptically, "Our family is not a big family, just a small farm family. As long as we are looking for a wife, she can be sensible and virtuous. There are many good daughters in the families that the matchmaker introduced. Why don't you take a look?"

"Mom," Lin Jiang pursed his lips and spoke his mind, so that his family wouldn't worry about him. "I don't want to get married, and I don't want to get married just because I'm old enough. Even if I really want to get married, it depends on fate."

As expected, he was injured. Mrs. Lin sighed and stopped persuading him.

The topic at the table quickly turned to other things and the incident was forgotten.

The rain has stopped, but the road in front of my house is soaked by the rain and is full of mud. You can sink your feet into mud wherever you step.

After dinner, Bai Xiang was thinking about snacks, so he took off his shoes, held them in his hands, and slipped away to Yan's house barefoot.

"Grandma is so worried. My uncle refuses to meet me, saying it depends on fate. There are so many portraits of beautiful sisters at home, but my uncle won't look at any of them." Bai Xiang sat on a chair, holding a clean red peach in his paws, chewing it and shaking his feet, "Brother Changqing, do people have to get married when they grow up?"

Yan Changqing half-knelt in front of the little kid and wiped her washed little feet with a towel. "Those are worries for adults. Xiangbao is still a little kid. You don't need to know so much."

"So what is fate?"

"Fate..." After handing the handkerchief to the nanny, Yan Changqing stood up and pinched the baby's face. Seeing her innocent and lovely appearance, he couldn't help teasing her, "For example, my family is very far away, but I came here to meet Xiangbao. This is fate. It is also fate to be connected with Yuxi Village."

Can't understand.

Bai Xiang chewed on a peach and said, "Adults' worries are so troublesome. I'd better not grow up."

"You won't have any worries. Brother Changqing will help you solve any problems that bother you." Yan Changqing smiled, his bright eyes gentle and sincere, "Xiangbao, just grow up happily, and you will be worry-free."

Having stayed in Yuxi Village for so long, he had learned all about Bai Xiang's origins from the Lin family and the villagers.

A little baby fell from the sky in the cold winter in Mobei. When it landed on the ground, it had no warm clothes on and its body was covered with needle marks and bruises.

From now on, as long as he is around, he will protect her and will not let Xiangbao get hurt again.

The old man who was peering out of the door was about to step in, saying confidently, "At such a young age, he is deceiving a younger kid with his sweet talk and deceiving others. How can this be possible? I have to teach him a lesson!"

Xu Enhui skillfully grabbed the old man by the collar, expressionless, "Grandfather, what the young master said is sincere and genuine. Anyone with eyes can see that he loves the little girl. How can he be deceived by sweet words?"

"Then I will go and teach the little girl a lesson. She is innocent and ignorant of the ways of the world, and is most likely to be deceived. Grandfather will go and warn her that there are some things she cannot believe!"

"The little girl of the Lin family is only four years old. It is reasonable for her to be naive and ignorant of the world. You are trying to force her to grow up too early by instilling adult views into her."

"I--"

"You are just itching to talk."

"..."

Xu Hanzhang was so angry that he lost his temper. His granddaughter was like a worm in his stomach. He knew what he was going to do just by raising his eyebrows at the little girl.

Isn't he feeling bored?

The lights in the Yan family's small flower hall were bright, and two children, one big and one small, were eating and reading happily.

At the corner of the door, the grandfather and grandson were walking and dragging each other, pulling each other's eyes and arguing.

Jia Banxian watched the excitement for a long time before he walked out from the other corner, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan and smiling, "Mr. Xu, you have come a long way, you must be tired, why are you still acting as a door god here?"

When the old man saw him, his eyes lit up and he took the opportunity to get rid of his granddaughter's grip, "Stop pulling, let me pass!"

He walked quickly towards Jia Banxian, "You bastard, since you shaved your head you should wear a monk's robe, and since you wear a Taoist robe you should tie your hair into a Taoist bun, you look so weird! The old man couldn't help himself when he saw you - I really like your unorthodoxy, hahaha! Come on, let's sit down and have a pot of tea!"

Watching the two people disappear around the corner, Nanny Du and Xu Enhui looked at each other.

Xu Enhui threw the can down and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Madam."

Madam Du was very sympathetic, "You've worked hard."

The two looked at each other for a moment and then looked up at the sky.

Everyone will have to work hard in the days ahead.

Ugh.
