The sickly boss always wants to get close to her

The next day, Mrs. Wen came to visit. After chatting for a while, she said that Wen Huai wanted to practice martial arts with his adopted son in the mansion. Chu Bainiao was quite surprised.

Let’s not talk about my senior brother for now, let’s just talk about Madam Wen. She is really willing to let her fair and tender son, whom she treats like a precious baby, learn martial arts.

"Young Master Wen, if you want to learn martial arts, that's fine. However, practicing martial arts will be hard and tiring, and bumps and bruises are common. If you don't mind, I'll go talk to Shu Bai's master."

When Mrs. Wen heard that there were still bumps and bruises, her heart tightened. She had a son in her old age, who was as pretty and smart as a porcelain doll. She was afraid that he would melt if she held him in her mouth, or fall if she held him in her hands. How could she bear to let him learn martial arts?

But then I thought about it, Wen Huai went home last night and threw a tantrum and wanted to practice martial arts in the general's mansion...

Never mind, for boys, it’s always good to practice more. What if the kid can’t persist?

Mrs. Wen gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I don't mind."

That afternoon, with Wei Shubai looking constipated, Wen Huai officially began to practice martial arts.

It was May and the weather was getting warmer. Mrs. Wen and Chu Bainiao sat in the shade under the corridor, drinking tea and watching two children doing horse stance.

Madam Wen felt a little distressed and a little emotional. "Our little Huai has been a troublemaker since he was a child. Everyone has spoiled him. But how can I not love my son who was born at this age? He is so small and soft?"

"This kid is always teasing cats and dogs in the Duke's Mansion, making them hate him. You know what, he has been much better since your Wei Shubai came here!"

"Not only has he completed every assignment given by the teacher, but now he has also started practicing martial arts."

“I really feel like my child has grown up.”

Chu Bainiao listened with a smile. Madam Wen was only in her thirties, so how could she be that old? However, women of this era gave birth early. The eldest son of the Duke's Mansion was more than ten years older than Wen Huai.

Madam Wen looked at Wei Shubai who was sitting in horse stance without saying a word and said, "Your Shubai is the one who is easy to worry about. He looks very well behaved."

Chu Bai Niao had something to say when talking about Wei Shubai. She had no experience in raising children. "Although Shubai is well-behaved, he is too well-behaved. He doesn't say anything and doesn't make any noise. In fact, I was a little panicked, wondering if I, as a stepmother, did something wrong."

Madam Wen looked a little surprised, and consoled her, "Maybe Shu Bai from your family has just calmed down a bit. He still relies on you a lot. Didn't he hold your hand the whole time on Xiao Huai's birthday?"

"Raising children is actually about communicating more and being empathetic. Sometimes what you think is good may not be what the other person thinks is good."

Chu Bainiao nodded as if he had given up something, his eyes fell on his junior brother awkwardly, and then he looked away as if he was burned.

Wen Huai practiced very seriously. It was surprising that this child who was brought up in a wealthy family had a spirit of not wanting to admit defeat.

Wen Huai thought that Madam Wei and his mother were watching, so he had to perform well! Damn it! Why didn't Wei Shubai take a rest?

Wei Shubai thought that his mother and Madam Wen were watching. He had practiced longer than Wen Huai, so he couldn't lose to Wen Huai, right? Damn it! What's wrong with Wen Huai? How could he last so long?

Neither of the two children was willing to give in to the other, but they just gritted their teeth and endured it.

It was Chu Bainiao who realized that something was wrong. Heavy training was not good for the body, not to mention that the children were in their growth period. She waved her hand to signal the maid to let them rest.

Mrs. Wen was surprised and asked, "Are you the one who takes care of it on weekdays? I thought it was the master who took care of it."

Chu Bai Niao smiled and said, "The master my husband found when he was alive had a strange personality and hated these trivial matters the most, so I usually only ask him to teach kung fu when I am watching."

Madam Wen said, "So that's why. I was wondering why after I took Xiao Huai to see the master, he disappeared in the blink of an eye."

After Wen Huai practiced basic skills for an hour, he was taken home by Mrs. Wen. Chu Bainiao told him to continue practicing after returning home, and to practice for two hours every day, with rest time in between.

Wei Shubai didn't have to practice the basic skills for so long, he had already started learning the moves. His forehead was covered with sweat as he repeated the "stabbing" action over and over again.

The master seldom came out of the small courtyard. Ever since Chu Bainiao learned the gun skills that he had demonstrated once, he became a hands-off boss. He simply let Chu Bainiao teach Wei Shubai on a daily basis, and he would come out to watch once every two days.

Chu Bainiao walked over and corrected his unqualified movements.

Wei Shubai opened his mouth and wanted to ask his mother what she thought of Wen Huai. He felt that Wen Huai was too clingy to his mother, and his mother couldn't just look at him when Wen Huai was around.

But he didn't know what to say. Wen Huai had already become his disciple and had to come to the general's residence every day. What could he do, not to mention that he still had to rely on Wen Huai for his academic studies.

Chu Bainiao tapped the little kid's head and said, "You have to concentrate on practicing martial arts. If you have any questions, just ask them."

Wei Shubai still didn't say anything. He held the gun in a standard motion and thrust it forward fiercely. "The kid knows."

"I don't have anything to ask."

In a blink of an eye, Wen Huai has been training in the general's mansion for two months. It is worth mentioning that Madam Wen and Chu Bainiao have become close friends.

She felt that Chu Bainiao was a good match for her at first sight. The more she got to know her, the more she liked her, so she simply accepted her as her sister.

Today Chu Bainiao was teaching Wen Huai some simple body movements.

Wen Huai's neck and ears were red, his eyes were wide open, and he was obviously very excited. Under Wei Shubai's contemptuous gaze, he tripped over his left foot and fell successfully into Chu Bainiao's arms.

Wen Huai: (*????)

Wen Huai: "Aunt~"

Wei Shubai: It’s hard, my fist is hard.

Chu Bai Niao comforted him, "It's okay. It's normal that your body won't react quickly when you first start practicing."

Wen Huai had been exposed to the sun for two months, and his skin was not as fair and tender as before, but his facial features were really too delicate and cute. At this moment, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed and his tender lips were pouting.

It's really pitiful and cute.

"Thank you, auntie. Xiao Huai will practice hard!"

Wei Shubai yelled, "Mom!"

Chu Bainiao turned around immediately, "What's wrong, Shu Bai?"

Wei Shubai glanced at Wen Huai, who had a wooden face behind Chu Bainiao. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.

"Mom, help me look at this move. It doesn't feel right no matter how I do it."

Chu Bainiao had no doubts, "Okay, demonstrate it first."

The little child held a shrunken spear and wielded it skillfully.

Chu Bainiao saw the problem and gave detailed instructions.

Wen Huai stopped practicing and walked to her side. He looked at Wei Shubai with his big eyes as he wielded the spear so skillfully, with an envious look on his face.

The little hand grasped the hem of Chu Bai Niao's clothes and shook it, "Aunt, Brother Shu Bai is really good at training. He is not like Xiao Huai, who is stupid and dumb. He falls down when learning some simple body movements."

Wen Huai looked at Chu Bainiao's stunned face and said with a pitiful look, "Aunt, is Xiao Huai really useless?"

Chu Bainiu's lips were trembling but she hadn't said anything yet when a "clang" was heard from the other end.

The spear and Wei Shubai fell to the ground together.

Wei Shubai was so shocked that his concentration was distracted and he was knocked down by the spear.
