The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Yan Zhenshen knew from listening to his husband's chatter that Chu Xiao had no intention of hiding this matter today. When questioned by Zhao Guizhi, he reluctantly stopped chopping wood.

"The dean of Gudao Academy, Qiao Qingyun." Yan Zhenshen looked at his mother's increasingly ugly expression and said the last few words: "He is a man."

Zhao Guizhi actually already had this guess, but when she heard it with her own ears she was still stunned for a while.

"A man?" Zhao Guizhi was at a loss for words. "And he's also the dean. Is this the place where Xiaobei studies?"

Yan Zhenshen nodded: "Yes."

Zhao Guizhi began to feel dazed. She scratched her clothes and turned to the kitchen. "I'm going to cook. Don't tell your father about this. I need to take my time."

Chu Xiao wanted to follow him in, but Yan Zhenshen stopped him, "Let mom stay alone for a while."

Chu Xiao stopped and nodded. It was time for his mother to think about it carefully.

Of course, Zhao Guizhi was not the only one who was surprised. Yan Sanmei, who was listening in on the fun, was also surprised. However, she was more curious than surprised: "Brother Xiao, what does the dean you are talking about look like?"

Chu Xiao thought about Qiao Qingyun and began to praise him: "He is a handsome man, elegant, good-looking, knowledgeable and skilled in martial arts."

Yan Sanmei was even more surprised: "Then he is blind, how could he like my second brother?"

Chu Xiao: “…” They are truly siblings, expressing exactly the same opinions.

Zhao Guizhi entered the kitchen, her mind still in a mess. She sat in front of the stove in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, but her hands subconsciously took the firewood and put it into the bottom of the pot.

After a while, a burning smell came from the kitchen.

They had to go in now. Chu Xiao and Yan Sanmei stood up and walked towards the kitchen. Zhao Guizhi was busily serving rice. The fire was too big and the rice at the bottom was burnt, but the rice at the top seemed uncooked.

This kind of half-cooked rice is simply inedible.

Zhao Guizhi picked up a grain and tasted it, then sighed: "Forget it, feed it to the chickens and ducks, and cook some noodles tonight."

"Okay, then I'll ask Brother Shen to knead the dough."

Yan Zhenshen is very strong and usually helps with kneading the dough at home. As for cutting noodles, Zhao Guizhi is much better than him, but it is obvious that the chef is not in good shape today.

Chu Xiao pressed the man onto a low stool and then sat beside her: "Mom, if you really can't accept it, I will go with Brother Shen to tie him up and lock him up at home so that he can't go anywhere."

Yan Zhenshen kept kneading the dough with his hands, but his eyes glanced over. His husband was planning to defeat him one by one, first convincing him and then convincing his mother. He was really putting a lot of effort into Yan Zhennan.

It doesn't necessarily mean that he cares so much about himself.

Zhao Guizhi sighed softly, and after a long while she patted the back of Chu Xiao's hand: "Xiao brother, it's hard for you to help persuade me. I know the second brother's temper. He is like a stupid donkey. No one can say anything when he has made up his mind, unless you can lock him up for life."

"Then lock him up for life. At worst, Brother Shen and I will take care of him in the future. It's better than letting him piss off his parents like this."

Chu Xiao couldn't persuade her directly, so he could only use provocation. If all the children stood against her at this time, Zhao Guizhi would not only be confused but also sad.

"What nonsense are you talking about? He is a man and he is being supported by his elder brother and his husband. If people tell others about it, it would be worse than being with a man..."

Shame!

Zhao Guizhi suddenly stopped talking. Yes, it is embarrassing no matter what.

She was not just thinking about herself, but they had four children in their family, and she couldn't let their reputation be ruined because of this one. What would happen to her third sister and Xiaobei in the future?

Chu Xiao felt that it was time to do something, so he said his own idea: "Alas, ever since Cheng Xue got married, I feel that our house is actually quite empty, especially since Brother Shen and I are always in the mountains, and things at home really need someone to take care of them."

As he spoke, he stole a glance at Zhao Guizhi, and seeing that she had no expression, he continued, "Third sister and Xiaobei are still young, so this matter still depends on the second brother, but he is also a naive person. I thought, if there is another brother in the family, it would be appropriate."

Zhang Guizhi looked at Chu Xiao and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Chu Xiao grabbed Zhao Guizhi's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom, please don't be angry when I tell you."

"You say." Zhao Guizhi nodded.

"This is what I think. Mr. Qiao is now without a father or a mother. Why don't you and dad recognize another son? This way, when he interacts with my second brother, no one will gossip about him."

Zhao Guizhi frowned: "If you're not getting married at the right age, how can others not think more about it?"

Chu Xiao chuckled: "Why don't we take our second brother to the mountains and tell him that he is injured and can't be treated?"

As soon as he said this, not to mention Zhao Guizhi, even Yan Zhenshen's mouth twitched subconsciously. This was not an idea that a normal person could come up with.

Is this helping someone or putting the blame on someone?

"Nonsense." Zhao Guizhi patted Chu Xiao lightly: "You just give bad advice. How can you say such nonsense?"

Chu Xiao continued to laugh foolishly: "I was just saying it casually. The final decision is still up to mom."

But looking at Zhao Guizhi's expression, it seems that she is not completely unable to accept it. She just needs some time to digest it slowly.

It was dinner time when Yan Zhenbei helped Yan Zhengdao out. Although they didn't have to go to school now, they couldn't fall behind in their studies, so Yan Zhenbei stayed in Yan Zhengdao's room during the day, one reading a book while the other weaving baskets. Occasionally, Yan Zhengdao would ask him to recite a book for him.

Yan Zhenbei remembered everything he had learned by heart. Yan Zhengdao was very happy to hear this and kept praising him, saying that his family also had a scholar.

He is not the type who has simply attended school, but is willing to study hard. After all, the eldest and second oldest sons in his family are in school, and they are the kind of people who can make the teacher hate them to death.

Chu Xiao laughed when he heard this: "Brother Shen, how naughty must you be to make the Master so angry."

Yan Zhenshen felt a little embarrassed and lowered his head to eat his food desperately. It was really embarrassing to hear his parents talking about their childhood whenever they had nothing to do.

He didn't say anything, so Yan Zhengdao smiled and told Chu Xiao: "The school they attended when they were young was not in the town, but in the neighboring Wangjia Village. There was an old scholar in that village who collected very little tuition, only 100 coins a month, or 10 kilograms of rice and flour."

"Families with some extra money would send their children to learn to read. Few of these rascals listen to the lessons seriously. They play with crickets in class and skip classes to slack off. The old teacher is old and has to chase after them, for fear that they will fall into the water and be unable to get out, and he won't be able to explain himself to them."

"So his school was only open for a few years, and it was all because of these rascals."

Yan Zhenshen was not convinced: "It's obviously his daughter-in-law who was complaining about the noise when she gave birth. What does it have to do with us?"

Yan Zhengdao chuckled: "Look, he said that more than ten years ago. I thought he would have made some progress by now."

Yan Zhenshen felt even more embarrassed. This was definitely just a casual remark and was not what he meant.

However, Yan Zhengdao looked at him with more loving eyes. In the past, his eldest brother was also a gangster in the area, but later he was forced to be taciturn and had to be steady and down-to-earth. Now he can talk back occasionally, and he was even a little touched.
