King’s House Kindergarten

April is summer in Namshun.

Zhuo Yuan came in person, and the Qu family went up and down more than 20 li in the suburbs of Beijing to welcome him.

Because it was a private matter, the officials in the capital of Nanshun were not alerted. There were only about forty or fifty guards and secret guards accompanying Zhuo Yuan. There were only more than twenty guards arriving from a distance, which was not noticeable.

"Uncle Qu." Zhuo Yuan saluted.

Qu Shizhong is the elder, the elder brother's father-in-law, and Zhuo Yuan is the junior.

The younger generation should salute with the elder.

Qu Shizhong stepped forward. Zhuo Yuan's visit to Beijing was not an official business, and Qu Shizhong did not see the outside world. "Qingzhi, long time no see."

Zhuo Yuan smiled and led Shen Yue forward, "Uncle Qu, this is A Yue."

Shen Yuechao was blessed by Qu Shizhong, "Uncle Qu."

Qu Shizhong quickly searched in his mind, confirming that he had not seen Shen Yue before, and confirmed that he had not missed it, and then smiled at Shen Yue, "Men are talented and female."

Both Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yue lowered their eyebrows and smiled slightly.

Qu Shizhong asked, "Is this your first time in Namshun?"

Shen Yue nodded, "Yes, I only read it in the book earlier, and when I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that the book can't say one-tenth of a percent. Nanshun is a good place."

Qu Shizhong unknowingly stroked his beard and laughed.

Xiaoba and Taotao also stepped forward, "Grandpa Qu." "Hello, Grandpa Qu."

Qu Shizhong's eyes lit up slightly, "Who are you?"

Xiaoba said squarely, "I'm Zhuo Ning, Grandpa Qu can call me Xiaoba."

Xiao Ba is honest and cute, Qu Shizhong couldn't help laughing.

Zhuo Yuan added, "Uncle Qu, Xiaoba is the son of my fourth brother."

Qu Shizhong just met him, and smiled at Xiaoba's relatives, "Xiaoba, you don't look very much like your father."

Xiao Ba sighed, "It's like when I lose weight."

Laughing all around.

After everyone's effect, Taotao said, "Grandpa Qu, my name is Fang Chenxi, it's Xiaojiu, my uncle and the mansion call me Taotao."

"Tao Tao, hello, welcome to Nanshun." Qu Shizhong liked her very much.

"Grandfather!" After the greeting was over, Zhuo Min stepped forward and bowed his hands.

Zhuo Ying threw herself into Qu Shizhong's arms, "Grandfather, I'm back!"

Both Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yue could see that Qu Shizhong had a good relationship with Zhuo Min and Zhuo Ying.

Qu Shizhong said again, "Everyone has worked hard all the way to Nanshun, and tonight we will pick up the wind and wash the dust in the house."

Zhuo Yuan was disrespectful.

***

The dust washing banquet is set in the main hall of Qufu, and the main hall is only used to greet VIPs.

Qufu is a famous scholar family in Nanshun Beijing.

Qu Shizhong himself is a master of calligraphy in Namshun, and Zhuo Min and Zhuo Ying also learned good calligraphy since childhood because of their grandfather and mother.

The Qu family is not involved in politics, but many powerful people in the country will give the Qu family a thin face.

Namshun's calligraphy and painting style is prevalent, and it is very honorable to get a calligraphy from Qu Shizhong.

Therefore, the Qu family has high prestige in Beijing and Nanshun.

For the dust-cleaning feast, the Qu family will come from top to bottom.

Qu Shizhong had a son and a daughter under his knees. The daughter married far away in Xiqin and was Zhuo Yuan's eldest sister-in-law. Another son is Zhuo Min and Zhuo Ying's eldest uncle, Qu Jianming.

Qu Jianming has only one son.

Therefore, the generation of the Qu family is not very prosperous.

This is why Qu Shizhong and his wife read Zhuo Ming and Zhuo Ying. In Qu Shizhong's mind, Zhuo Ming and Zhuo Ying are not much different from their grandchildren.

And Qu Shizhong's only grandson, Qu Youzhi, was very accomplished in calligraphy a long time ago, and now he is only twenty-four or five years old.

Qu Youzhi has twins, the great-grandchildren of Qu Shizhong.

Qu Shizhong now rarely holds a pen, and most of the time he spends his time in the house with his grandchildren. Qu Youzhi's twin sons are about five or six years old, about the same age as Taotao and Xiaoba, and a few of them can play in one place.

The reception is really not fun for children.

Soon, Tao Tao, Xiao Ba, and the twins started to get bored.

Children are born to be in one place.

In addition, there are Taotao here. Soon, when the adults started drinking and talking, the twins came to Taotao and Xiaoba, and asked curiously, "Are you cousin and aunt's brother and sister?"

Both Xiaoba and Taotao were here with Shen Yue. When the twins came, Shen Yue and Xiaoba, Taotao stopped talking and looked at them.

There is a way of communication among the children, and Shen Yue did not interrupt.

Tao Tao smiled, "Am I my cousin?"

The two twins nodded, and one said, "Dad said it."

Another said, "You are our cousin!"

Taotao looked at Shen Yue with joyful eyes, "Ayue Ayue, I'm an auntie!"

Earlier, she was Xiao Lizhi's sister, which made Tao Tao very happy. Right now, she is the cousin of the twins, and Tao Tao's eyes are both curious and surprised!

Xiaoba was also promoted to cousin!

The four children giggled together, the atmosphere was friendly and cordial, and they could play everywhere.

The twins are only five or six years old. The elder brother's name is Ding Ding, and the younger brother's name is Dangdang. The names are very cute. When the twins were changing their teeth, Ding Ding's teeth leaked in the first half, and the younger brother's teeth leaked in the second half, but they were all very cute children.

The twins stepped forward, and the twins' mother, Zeng Shi, was also afraid of being neglected, so she hurried forward.

Zhuo Yuan drank with the people of the Qu family.

The mother of the twins, Zeng Shi, took the twins with Shen Yue and Tao Tao, and Xiao Ba was there.

Strictly speaking, the twins' great-grandfather is the father of Zhuo Yuan's sister-in-law, so the twins are actually distant relatives to Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yue.

Zeng's chorus is so eloquent that he can still call his cousin and aunt.

But Zhuo Yuan's identity was special, and he called Liu Ye and his wife along the way, so here the twins, Qu Shizhong asked him to call Liu Ye and his wife.

The children opened their eyes wide and looked at Shen Yue curiously.

Shen Yue half squatted down, reached out and touched their heads, and said warmly, "Ding Ding Dangdang, you can call me Ayue like Xiaoba and Taotao."

"Ayue?" The two children were surprised.

Shen Yue nodded, "Well, just call A Yue."

Zeng didn't know if it was appropriate, but seeing Zhuo Yuan on one side, there was nothing, and Zeng didn't say anything else.

Shen Yue was originally half-squatting, but she became seasick from the merchant ship a while ago, and her stomach was always uncomfortable. After getting off the merchant ship, she still didn't get along very well. I saw the doctor said that she was a little uncomfortable with the weather, so she just got used to it. So just now, after squatting for a while, Shen Yue felt a little dizzy and uncomfortable, so she got up and sat down.

Children are playing together.

Mrs Zeng sat on Shen Yue's side and spoke with Shen Yue.

The accents of Nan Shun and Xi Qin are a little different, but they can probably be heard clearly.

The children quickly became accustomed to each other's accents and gradually became acquainted with Zeng.

...

Later, the dust-cleaning feast ends.

Zhuo Min, Zhuo Ying, Qu Youzhi and Zeng's wife, together with the twins, sent Zhuo Yuan, Shen Yue and Tao Tao, and Xiao Ba to the Wutong Xiaoyuan next door.

Zhuo Yuan has a special status. Although it is reasonable to live in the Qu family's house, there is no need for communication in the West Qin Kingdom. It seems inappropriate to go through the Qu family, so the Qu family rented the Wutong Xiaoyuan next door to Zhuo Yuan and Shen. Yue and his party stayed temporarily.

This trip from Xiqin to Nanshun is a long way. Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yue and his party will stay in Nanshun for at least some time. Wutong Xiaoyuan is close to Qu's family, so it can be arranged to take care of things, so that it is convenient to move around, and it will not be neglected.

"Uncle, auntie, send it here first, it's a busy journey, rest early." Qu Youzhi and Zeng's family held a child in their arms, and the children waved goodbye to Shen Yue, Taotao, and Xiaoba.

They are new friends today, when their friendship is at its most profound.

"Goodbye, let's play together tomorrow!" Ding Ding and Dangdang were very enthusiastic.

Tao Tao and Xiao Ba also responded, "Then let's play together tomorrow!"

Zhuo Min also handed over to Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yue, "Uncle Six, Aunt Six, rest early, I will pick up Uncle Six and Aunt Six tomorrow morning."

Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yue both nodded.

Zhuo Ying also congratulated Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yuefu, which was regarded as a farewell.

Zhuo Min and Zhuo Ying, together with Qu Youzhi and Zeng Shi, left with Ding Ding Dang.

After a few people left, Shen Yue took Xiaoba and Taotao to the ear room of the garden to wash. In the summer, the babies have tossed for a day, sweated all over, washed quickly, and could have a good night's sleep in the house.

Going out is not always easy.

Xiao Ba and Tao Tao lived in the east and west rooms of the main house, and happened to be with Shen Yue and Zhuo Yuan.

The babies have grown up and can basically take care of themselves, and Shen Yue can also take care of them easily.

Although Zhuo Yuan was in Nanshun, there were daily news from the middle school that Zhuo Yuan was with the dark guards, waiting for Shen Yue to coax Tao Tao and Xiao Ba to sleep, and went to the ear room to wash up. The voices of Zhuo Yuan and the Dark Guard can be heard talking in the outer cabinet.

Today's reception may be a little long, but after that, Shen Yue felt a little uncomfortable, and the reception just happened to end.

Right now, Shen Yue lay sideways on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

When Zhuo Yuan finished washing and went back to bed, Shen Yue woke up slightly.

"Wake you up?" Zhuo Yuan apologized.

Shen Yue shook her head, just as Zhuo Yuan lay down, she rubbed close to Zhuo Yuan's side, and quickly fell asleep again.

He didn't expect her to be so uncomfortable this time.

I also let the doctor see it earlier, and said that it was because of the soil and water, and the medicine was not prescribed. They have been walking very slowly all the way, but it seems that they are not doing well when they reach Beijing.

I want to see Yang Xing tomorrow, Zhuo Yuan is thinking, after meeting Yang Xing, will Zhuo Ying's affairs be settled, and then leave Nanshun as soon as possible?

Zhuo Yuan sighed in his heart, but didn't make a sound to disturb her.

She slept soundly in his arms.

***

The next morning, Zhuo Min came to Wutong Xiaoyuan to pick up Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yue to Qufu.

Zhuo Yuan is Zhuo Ying's sixth uncle and the only elder of the Zhuo family.

Zhuo's family is the highest, and Yang Xing's family does not dare to propose marriage rashly. For everything, wait until Zhuo Yuan sees Yang Xing and approves, then the Yang family can propose marriage according to the etiquette, otherwise it is arrogance.

Shen Yue went to bed early recently, so she also got up early in the morning. It seemed that her biological clock had been adjusted again, and she was still very hungry in the morning, so she didn't dare to stay in bed, so she ate breakfast very early. She wasn't feeling very well recently, and Zhuo Yuan had been with her all the time. He also got up early to have a meal together, and then went to Qu Mansion.

When Zhuo Yuan and Shen Yue went to the side hall of Qu Mansion, Yang Xing had already arrived.

Zhuo Ying is Qu Shizhong's granddaughter.

But with Zhuo Yuan on this trip, Zhuo Ying's marriage is considered a family affair of the Zhuo family, Qu Shizhong and Zhuo Min are enough, but Qu Youzhi and his father are not.

Yang Xing is a son of the Yang family in Cizhou.

The Yang family is also a scholar of Cizhou. Yang Xing's aunt and uncle are in Beijing, and they are familiar with Qu Youzhi's father, so they walk around a lot, so Yang Xing only knew Zhuo Ying, and they had a good impression of each other. Yang Xing was four or five years older than Zhuo Ying, and she looked pretty, but when she saw Zhuo Yuan for the first time, she was nervous and stammered when she spoke. Xu Shi also realized that he wanted to adjust, but seeing Zhuo Yuan's gaze, he became more nervous as he went to the back.

Zhuo Yuan just asked a few simple questions, and he was a little hesitant.

Zhuo Ying looked at him worriedly, and then looked at Zhuo Yuan.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhuo Yuan is not very fond of it.

Yang Xing felt a little remorse in his heart.

Zhuo Ying was also a little nervous.

Qu Shizhong knew more about Yang Xing, and knew that the child might be nervous today, but he was fine on weekdays. Qu Shizhong was afraid that Zhuo Yuan would kill Yang Xing with a stick, so he wanted to remind him aloud, but Zhuo Yuan did not. Said, "I will stay in Nanshun Beijing for a few more days and have time to move around more."

Yang Xing was stunned for a moment, relieved, and bowed respectfully towards Zhuo Yuan.

Zhuo Ying also seemed to let out a breath.

Back at Wutong Xiaoyuan, Zhuo Yuan didn't say anything on his face, Shen Yue knew that he was dissatisfied, but saved face for Zhuo Ying.

But Zhuo Yuan cares about the children in the house. He really doesn't like Yang Xing's place, but he didn't rush into Zhuo Ying's mind.

He is a good sixth uncle.

But he is also a picky uncle.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yue flipped the teacup and poured water for him.

Zhuo Yuan spoke bluntly in front of her, "I don't think Yang Xing is worthy of Ying Er."

Shen Yue thought that he would say it was inappropriate, but what he brought out directly was not worthy of a few words, so he deliberately left room for it.

"How do you say?" Shen Yue also held up the teacup.

While drinking tea, Zhuo Yuan talked about a few observations he had made when he saw Yang Xing.

"I'm in a hurry to achieve success, and I haven't been able to observe the situation, so I'm in a hurry, and I'm missing some city houses."

"Obviously I know that I'm so nervous that I'm stuttering, and I don't know how to temporarily interrupt the adjustment. Instead, I continue, exposing my shortcomings more and more, and I'm not calm."

"Seeing that I was not very satisfied with him, I was instantly frustrated, and Ying Er also saw that I was less responsible and responsible."

"I said to leave in a few days, obviously to go down the steps for Ying Er. He looked relieved and had no eyesight."

Zhuo Yuan didn't like him, and he didn't like him very much.

Shen Yue smiled, noncommittal.

Zhuo Yuan looked at her, "Don't you think?"

Shen Yue smiled and said, "Then does he have any advantages?"

Zhuo Yuan was stunned, for a while, he really couldn't think of it.

Shen Yue smiled again, "How can a person have no advantages at all, and Ying Er is not small and has his own judgment, Uncle Qu is also a past person, how can he see a person who has no advantages, Qingzhi, it is inevitable that others will see you Nervous, it's you who brought prejudice to meet people."

Zhuo Yuan retorted, "Where am I prejudiced against him?"

Shen Yue smiled, "If you are not prejudiced, how come you can't say any advantages? But all the disadvantages?"

Zhuo Yuan was speechless.

Shen Yue continued to add water to his cup, and said gently, "If it were Xiao Liu's sweetheart today, Tao Tao's sweetheart would be the same."

Zhuo Yuan was stunned, but suddenly, he knew something.

The whole person froze.

Shen Yue said with a warm smile, "What you said just now, everything about Yang Xing is correct. But I think, as someone who meets Yang Xing for the first time, I think others are very honest and want to be perfect in front of you, but my age experience And energy is limited, so it is inevitable to be under pressure when facing you, he always considers what to say and what not to say, Yu Guang has been watching Ying Er, so he stumbles, but it makes me feel that he is not so fancy Gut, I just like Zhuo Ying very much, so I attach great importance to meeting you, but because I didn't behave well, I feel ashamed and frustrated in front of you..."

She did not disprove what he had said earlier.

But he couldn't refute every sentence, Shen Yue was right.

Shen Yue reached out and shook his hand, and continued to smile, "You are King Pingyuan, but not everyone is you, your standards are too strict, although strict is not bad, but it makes others feel pressure. "What we're thinking about, is it really going to be so harsh on someone who's meeting for the first time?"

Shen Yue didn't say anything.

Zhuo Yuan's eyes were slightly stagnant.

Shen Yue didn't mention Yang Xing again, but asked, "When my sister got married, were you also very reluctant?"

Zhuo Yuan is slightly stagnant.

Shen Yue was relieved, "It's hard for us not to have prejudice against others, especially when our roles are different, it's understandable."

Zhuo Yuan knew that she was going down the steps for him.

Shen Yue said again, "Actually, I have another idea that may not be very good."

Zhuo Yuan looked at her, "Speak, I'll listen."

Shen Yue said seriously, "I think if possible, try to let Ying Er, Xiao Liu, and Tao Tao get married later. I read some books earlier, and after the child's mind gradually becomes sound, it will be easier for him to treat himself. I like it, I think it is responsible, and for the girl's family, it is good for me and the child to have a child later. I also heard what Lou Qingyun said. I think, if the children in the house have the conditions, is it right? It gives them more time to make choices and take responsibility for themselves.”

"You mean?" Zhuo Yun raised his eyebrows slightly.

Shen Yue concluded, "I mean, if you are really sure that two people are suitable, the marriage can be decided first, and the marriage and pregnancy can be in no hurry. This is good for Ying Er, Xiao Liu and Tao Tao, they need a more mature mind. , who were also children at first, and they are still growing, but getting married and pregnant at a later date is actually good for them."

She had rarely spoken to him so seriously.

"If possible, I would like to..." Shen Yue spoke again.

Zhuo Yuan said warmly, "Why not?"

Shen Yue was slightly startled.

Zhuo Yuan smiled and said, "You are the sixth aunt, you are in charge of the affairs of the back house, everyone else will listen to what you say, and I will hug you when something happens."

He was clearly joking, Shen Yue lowered her eyebrows and smiled.

Zhuo Yuan's mood seems to have gradually eased from earlier, and he can look at Yang Xing in a more objective way again, "Then take a look and don't let the children worry."

Shen Yue smiled.

Later, Zhuo Ying really came to Wutong Xiaoyuan because of Yang Xing's affairs, her eyes were red because of nervousness, "Brother Xing, it's not like this on weekdays, he should be nervous when he sees Sixth Uncle. , Uncle Six, I..."

Zhuo Yuan looked at her and said warmly, "Understood, I will invite him to the mansion tomorrow, and ask Sixth Aunt to talk to him."

Zhuo Ying was overjoyed, "Thank you Sixth Uncle!"

A pair of eyes seemed to smile, and he picked up the skirt and left the outer cabinet, but soon, he rushed back.

Zhuo Yuan looked at her.

Zhuo Ying said with a smile, "Uncle Liu, you are the best Uncle Six in the world!"

After saying that, he ran away shyly.

Zhuo Yuan was stunned, and then his face turned slightly red when he looked at Shen Yue.

Shen Yue said with a smile, "I think what she said is right."

Zhuo Yuan sighed softly, went up to pick her up, and his eyes were full of stars, "Ayue, I really want a daughter, just like you, intelligent and patient, like children, and also like Cuju!"

Hearing these reasons, Shen Yue had a slight headache.

However, Zhuo Yuan was obviously immersed in his longing. "In the future, whatever she likes to do, daddy will support her in whatever she does, and daddy will spoil her, and even more spoil her mother."

Shen Yue nodded and couldn't help laughing, "Well, when she wants to get married in the future, you will definitely make things difficult for your son-in-law."

Zhuo Yuan suddenly thought of Yang Xing and could not help coughing.

"What do you want?" Shen Yue joked.

Zhuo Yuan sighed, "I'm thinking, I'm a father who started to be sad before he was ten years old."

Seeing that he said something serious, Shen Yue endured, "Xiao Shi?"

He looked at her with longing in his eyes, "Yeah, it's good that Xiao Shi is a daughter. At that time, her nickname will be Xiao Padded Jacket."

"What if it's a son?" Shen Yue was curious about his naming logic.

Zhuo Yuan was stunned for a while, as if he had thought about his son's appearance at all.

Shen Yue asked this question, and he thought about it perfunctorily, "Small arm..."

Small arm... what is this name, it's really perfunctory when I hear it.

Zhuo Yuan laughed, "It's the little arm in the little arm and the calf, how cute~"

He is smooth.

Shen Yue sighed seriously, "What if he will be careful about his arm in the future? Say, little arm, be careful with your little arm?"

"..." Zhuo Yuan was speechless.

This name seems really stupid!

Shen Yue couldn't help laughing.

***

The next day, Yang Xing came to Wutong Xiaoyuan.

Yesterday, Zhuo Yuan told Zhuo Ying to let him come to see Shen Yue.

Because Yang Xing had only met him the day before, and he was afraid that he would still be nervous when he saw him, so let him stay with Shen Yue first.

Yang Xing was with Shen Yue today, and it was completely different from when he saw Zhuo Yuan yesterday. Zhuo Yuan is the king of Pingyuan, Yang Xing couldn't be nervous when he saw him, but in front of Shen Yue, Shen Yue was gentle and small. Eight and Taotao, the atmosphere is very good.

In a casual atmosphere, Yang Xing's care for Zhuo Ying does not need to be deliberate, it is naturally revealed, and Yang Xing also takes care of Xiaoba and Taotao, and even Xiaoba and Taotao like him very much.

Yang Xing is actually funny, and will make Zhuo Ying happy when Zhuo Ying is nervous.

At this moment, the smile on Zhuo Ying's face is the most moving expression of a girl at this age...

Later, Yang Xing specially brought Shen Yue, Zhuo Ying, Xiaoba and Taotao to Foyuanzhai to use the vegetarian dishes.

The custom of worshipping Buddha in Nanshun prevailed, and many vegetarian restaurants were also made in the country.

Foyuan Zhai is the most famous in Beijing.

Shen Yue, Xiao Ba, and Tao Tao have used it a lot and are very happy.

When I returned to Wutong Xiaoyuan, it was almost around dusk. I was with Shen Yue today. Yang Xing was obviously not so nervous and played better. Shen Yue also invited him to come back to the courtyard tomorrow to play adventure chess with the children.

Xiaoba and Taotao nodded desperately, "Adventure chess is the most fun."

Yang Xing should be fine.

When I left, I turned back after a few steps, I really felt lucky and a little bit of a turning point.

Zhuo Ying stepped forward and hugged Shen Yue, "Aunt Liu, thank you today."

Shen Yue actually felt a little uncomfortable when she came back from Foyuanzhai. Right now, she was hugged by Zhuo Ying and was about to respond, but she felt a little heavy in her mind, as if she had eaten a bad stomach before, and felt a little nauseated, so she went with Zhuo Ying. Said, "I'm going to rest for a while, maybe the wind chill has worsened in the past two days, and today I have a bad stomach again."

Zhuo Ying hurriedly went to ask the doctor.

By the time Zhuo Yuan returned to the courtyard, the doctor had already checked his pulse for a long time.

"Doctor, is my wife alright." Zhuo Yuan didn't believe that Shen Yue was just unaccustomed to the environment. It's been more than half a month, and everyone has lost some weight.

The doctor got up and smiled at him, "It's nothing, but there is a happy event. Madam is happy. Check the pulse. It's been almost two months."

Zhuo Yuan was stunned, two months, on the way...
