Men, listen, grab the top of the mountain and stand in the center position

Li Wanting's Silang is even younger than Mingxi and Yunxiao. The four brothers are of similar age. They are naughty and chasing each other all day long. People with a strong desire for control can collapse on the spot.

They were noisy and quarrelsome since childhood, but they were tough and sturdy. They were not sick very often, except for being a little dirty. They played all day long, and the scholar teacher and martial arts master they hired were useless.

After a period of grief, Ji's mother calmed down, went back to her room, changed into plain clothes, and went with Ji's father and their maid, carrying food and gold and silver.

Lele, who was forced by her father to do math homework, hugged her sister's hand tightly when she heard the news. The teenage girl had no direct understanding of death, so she subconsciously counted, "My cousin only has four sons left." There were originally five, and one died.

"My cousin-in-law has six sons in total, but now he has five. He has changed his mind. Sister, will he come back to see Shiro?"

"will not."

The dazed Lele suddenly became emotional, "...you changed your heart, you didn't even come to see Shilang after he died? But...but Shilang is my biological son...I don't normally see him...wuwu, I won't even see him after he died...I won't even see him after he died..."

The two-word answer made the teenage girl break down and burst into tears, her voice not loud, "I'd rather die than watch this... wuwu..."

Tang Bo: ...Madam, you...but as I listened to the little girl crying more and more aggrieved, I couldn't help but wipe away my tears.

Mingxi, who was wearing small clothes and pants, was led out by Xiaolu. She forced her eyes open with sleepy eyes, "Auntie, why are you crying?"

"Woo, woo, Shiro is dead."

Mingxi didn't understand what death meant. "Auntie, do you want some milk tea?"

My aunt drinks milk tea when she is unhappy.

Because of the huge generation gap and misunderstanding, Lele cried hard.

Wangshu took the two people back to the room and gave each of them a cup of milk tea.

"Okay, Lele, have some milk tea."

"Sister...hiccup...sister, are we going to see Silang? Hiccup!" Lele started to hiccup. Wangshu rubbed her back and said, "No. Mom and Dad can go."

"Mother is very sad, wuwu..."

"Mother treats my cousin as her own daughter."

Mingxi, who has a strong ability to empathize, didn't understand the whole meaning. Seeing her aunt crying non-stop, she also started to cry, "Wuwu..."

It’s like watching TV. If you cry on TV, you will cry outside of TV.

Wangshu hugged her, "Oh, Mingxi!" He turned to Lele and said, "Lele, bear with it for a while."

Ji Lao Er tried hard to hold back his sniffles. Ming Xi sniffled twice, and Wangshu stroked her little head. "Everyone has sad things, but sadness and joy are not the same among people. There is no need to be too sad for others. There are so many people in this world, and many people are sad every day. If we keep shedding tears for others, we will never be happy in this life, understand? The happier we are, the better."

Lele seemed lost in thought, while Mingxi seemed to understand and drank the milk tea with a lot of sugar in it. "Why hasn't Daddy come back yet?"

"I'm back, I'm back!" The man strode in from outside. His braids were a little messy, but he was still energetic. "Daddy is very busy!"

Mingxi happily jumped off the chair and rushed over to be carried high up in the air, but was stopped by his father, who smiled and pinched the man's small body, "Daddy is all sweaty. After washing up, can you hold Mingxi in your arms?"

The little girl in flowery clothes dragged her father to the wash basin, then ran out to ask someone to prepare water, opened the closet to look for clothes, and finally waited outside in a serious manner, "Mingxi doesn't want to watch boys take a bath, Daddy, hurry up!"

"Okay, okay!" The middle-aged man was touched by his daughter's sweet words about a boy and assigned a new task, "Daddy is hungry."

"Lele, you know the number, go and choose."

Mingxi didn't dare go out after dark. The little girl was a little afraid of the dark, but Lele was not afraid. She said, "Wait here!"

When Lele and Xiaoqing came back with four or five dishes, this was the scene: the sister in a green dress was holding a big towel to dry her brother-in-law's hair, while her brother-in-law was smiling and hugging Mingxi with both hands. Mingxi was holding a cup to feed her brother-in-law milk tea, and they were all very happy.

Mingxi is indeed the apple of her brother-in-law's eye. Yunxiao, you little brat, wake up!

Halfway through the meal, Ji's father came and asked, "Is Mingxi awake too?"

"Grandpa~ Mingxi is not asleep, waiting for daddy!"

"Honey, you'll be sleepy in class tomorrow morning." Speaking of sleepiness, he immediately ordered his little daughter, who was eating and drinking for free, "Le Le, what time is it? Go back to sleep quickly."

Lele refused to leave, she was not sleepy at all.

"The master has something to say, you two go to sleep." After Wangshu said that, he took a sip of milk tea, and walked out hand in hand, looking back every three steps.

From a distance, Qin Xiuyuan could still hear the two people muttering:

"Ah, brother-in-law, why don't you say anything? I'm an adult too!"

"Mother thinks you are still a child~"

"She's wrong!"

"Don't talk about my mother!" She couldn't hear clearly at first, but when the little girl defended someone, she heard it clearly.

The atmosphere in the room became much more serious.

The two brothers were climbing up and down the yard, and somehow they started fighting. Sanlang threw a piece of freshly chopped firewood at Silang, hitting him right on the back of the head, and his brains popped out on the spot.

When Wangshu heard the word "brain flower", he had that picture in his mind: red blood and white brain flower, red and white all over the ground. He pursed his lips and closed his eyes when he heard it.

Seeing this, Ji's father paused and talked about the current difficulties, "Wanting is heartbroken, and the children are all scared silly. I wrote a letter and will send it to Jingzhou tomorrow." After that, he looked at his son-in-law.

Feeling an invisible pressure, Qin Xiuyuan said in a clear voice, "Father-in-law, just write it. I will go visit with Tang Bo tomorrow."

Father Ji: ...looking at his daughter.

"Dad, you might as well take this opportunity to persuade your cousin to send Wang Bao to the shop to learn something. The three of you will be beaten up and sent to school. If your cousin needs people or money, I can help... Anyway... I don't want to have any contact with that kind of person. It's disgusting."

After saying this, he looked uncomfortable, touched his arm, and ran to the basin to wash his hands, as if just saying this would make him stained with sputum, an unbearable filth.

Father Ji: ...Shushu’s reaction is really weird!

Qin Xiuyuan: ...You didn’t know that you gave birth to me?

The next day, Qin Xiuyuan and Tang Bo went over to pay a brief visit and told him that if he had any difficulties, he could go to Tang Bo and he would help if he could.

If a baby dies before reaching adulthood, it is considered to have died prematurely. No tombstone will be erected or memorial services will be offered. However, the baby will be wrapped in old clothes and a mat and buried somewhere. If conditions permit, a small coffin may be provided and the burial will be solemn, with the hope that the baby will be reborn into a good family in the next life.

Li Wanting's hair was disheveled and her clothes were wrinkled. She leaned on Ji's mother with all her strength exhausted, crying silently until her tears had dried up.

She was a year or two younger than Shushu, but she looked haggard and old at such a young age, with premature gray hair and a visibly failing body. There were a few children hiding at the door, and Tang Bo shook his head as soon as he left.

"General Wang, this is truly wrong. A good family with five children, and my cousin is no exception," the court's civil and military instructors, feeling helpless, repeatedly complained to him. "The child is unmanageable. Madam tried to teach her some ways to support herself, but she just waits for General Wang to come back..."

How could this be possible? The girl over there was young and beautiful, and she was so close to him. As a result, the lady just tossed her aside, but Old Madam Ji came over often.
