Chapter 2076

Perhaps Aunt Han felt that Shi Chengxuan had been neglected, so she casually asked, "What dowry did the Second Master prepare for the princess? Tell us about it so that we can all be happy."

Everyone turned their eyes to Shi Chengxuan, even Shi Yunshu's eyes were full of anticipation.

It's like saying, I, a little kid, have prepared gifts, so as a father, you wouldn't have not prepared a dowry for Sister Xia'er, right?

Shi Chengxuan was extremely embarrassed because he had not prepared any dowry. He had just been released from house arrest, so where could he prepare it?

His mouth is always one step faster than his brain. "Hasn't she married her son-in-law? What kind of dowry does she need to prepare?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned, and then... the warm atmosphere in the room cooled down.

Shi Chengxuan knew something was wrong and was about to explain that that was not what he meant.

Then Shi Yunshu said, "That's not what you said. Sister went to Liang State to be the queen this time to strive for a hundred years of friendship between the two countries. The meaning is different." He paused, and said in a cold tone, "But I heard that when Sister Xia'er got married before, her father didn't give her any decent dowry?"

"Shu'er!" Several aunts shouted in unison.

My son's words are disrespectful to me, and if they get out, why do I feel good about it? Children share their feelings.

And the child "heard", from whom? Wasn't it just what the aunts talked about when they were gossiping?

Shi Chengxuan's face turned red and he fled in panic.

Several concubines followed behind to explain that “children’s words are not to be taken seriously” and that Second Master should not take it to heart.

He turned around and praised Shi Yunshu, "Shu'er is awesome. You said what we wanted to say but didn't dare to say."

Shi Yunshu imitated his brother Shi Yunqi, standing with his hands behind his back, his face tense, and replied in a serious tone, "Shu'er is just telling the truth."

After he finished speaking, he bowed to the concubines in a formal manner and said, "Shu'er, take your leave now. It's time to go back to school."

"You just came back from school, so take a rest first before you study." Zhou loved her child the most.

Shi Yunshu shook his head maturely and said seriously, "Brother Yunqi once said, 'Time is money, so let's cherish the beautiful music.'"

The tender child's voice imitated the adult's accent, but every word was sonorous, just like Yunqi when he was a child. "Brother Yunqi also said, 'Morning dew dries easily and flowers fall easily, so don't let down the lamp in front of the window while you read.'"

Aunt Wen asked, "Did your brother Yunqi tell you this in private?"

Shi Yunshu shook his head, "No. These words are posted in our school, and everyone can see them. If Shu'er doesn't work hard, he will fall behind others. Just like that person just now, he has a good appearance, but everyone hates him, and dogs hate him."

Several aunts: "......"

Then Yunshu said, "Master Qiu also said, 'Only by reading the books of sages can one understand reason and know shame.' That person must not have studied hard, so..."

The child didn’t finish what he meant, but the aunts understood: so he is thick-skinned, neither reasonable nor shameless.

Several aunts looked at Shi Yunshu's straight little back as he walked out in square steps, feeling both amused and distressed.

Aunt Han couldn't help but whispered, "This child, now even the way he walks is imitating his older brother..."

Aunt Zhou smiled leisurely, "It's a blessing he earned in his previous life to imitate his elder brother. If he had imitated his father... well, you wouldn't know how much you'd cry for the rest of your life. God bless these children, don't let them grow up to be crooked! And this father... well, let's not talk about him. How can he be so embarrassed to come to such a grand event like Xia'er's, and leave empty-handed?"
