Luo Ran stepped forward and picked up Jing Xing, looked at the father and daughter, and just when he was about to ask, little Jing Xing looked at Fu Jinan and complained in a sweet voice: "Daddy, beat my sister."
Luo Ran was shocked.
Fu Jinan laughed angrily, looked at his son and asked, "When did I hit her?"
When Jing Xing saw his father turning towards him, he immediately hugged his mother's neck tightly with his little hands, and squeezed his little body into his mother's arms, saying aggrievedly: "Mom, I'm afraid."
Luo Ran glared at someone displeased, held his son in one hand, and pulled his daughter with the other hand, coaxing softly: "Ning'er, come here, come to mother. Jing Xing is good, don't be afraid."
When Jing Xing saw that his sister was safe and his mother's backbone was back, his tight little body finally softened.
Xiao Qingning looked at the ground, raised her little arms and made a throwing motion: "Daddy, bad!"
Luo Ran followed his daughter's line of sight and found that there were jade fragments under someone's feet. He was afraid of accidentally cutting someone, so he hurriedly called Youqing to come in and clean it up, and asked, "What's going on?"
Seeing the mother and son loving each other, Fu Jinan was obviously still angry. He said nothing and walked away without saying anything.
Luo Ran was left stunned in the room.
Youqing picked up the pieces and came back and whispered: "Madam, you have misunderstood me."
Facing Madam's puzzled eyes, Youqing looked at the two young masters and continued: "My lord has been busy these days. I finally found some time at noon today and wanted to come back to have lunch with you. Madam, you will not be here when my lord comes back." , he stayed with the young lady and the young master in the house. The young lady and the young master were obedient, so the master took out a piece of jade carving. Unexpectedly, Miss Qingning saw it and insisted on taking it. The master was afraid that the carving knife was sharp, so he hurriedly asked the slave to take it away. got up.
In just one turn, the young lady grabbed the jade. When the gentleman asked for it, but the young lady refused to give it, the father and daughter started to fight for it. Later, when the young lady got angry, she threw the jade away. The jade fell to the ground and broke into several pieces. Just got angry. But the young lady was not to be outdone and shouted after the adults. "
After Luo Ran heard this, he frowned and looked at the pair of children beside him.
The two little guys seemed to know that their mother was angry, so they lowered their heads in unison and remained silent.
Youqing continued: "Furthermore, I just heard from Master Changying that Master Changying has had that piece of jade for a long time and has been playing with it for several months. He just wanted to carve a jade pendant for Madam. Who knows..."
Luo Ran didn't know what to say for a moment, and his heart was a little swollen, so he asked, "Did you throw away the broken jade?"
Youqing hurriedly said: "No, except for a few pieces that were broken into pieces, the larger ones were put away by the slaves."
Luo Ran nodded: "Okay, I understand, you can go out."
The face is serious.
Youqing understood that Madam was going to teach the two young masters a lesson. Although she felt distressed, she also knew when to persuade and when not to.
As soon as the door was closed, little Qingning crawled to the other side of the kang table and stared at her mother with her big eyes.
Luo Ran ignored her for the time being, looked at his son, straightened his small body, and asked seriously: "Jing Xing, tell mother, did dad really hit my sister?"
Xiao Jingxing lowered his head and did not dare to look at his mother.
Luo Ran's tone became more severe: "Jing Xing, look up at your mother!"
Xiao Jingxing finally raised his head, tears welling up in his eyes, and his mouth curled up, as if he was about to cry. Luo Ran endured the pain and said: "Jing Xing, you are a man, don't cry!"
Xiao Jingxing seemed to understand what his mother said. He stopped crying if her mother didn't let her cry. He raised his little hand and wiped his eyes and continued to look at his mother.
Luo Ran asked again: "Tell mother, did dad beat my sister?"
Xiao Jingxing shook his head.
Luo Ran said: "Speak."
"No fight."
Xiao Jingxing couldn't speak clearly.
Luo Ran sighed, wiped the tears from his son's eyes, and said softly: "Jing Xing, lying is wrong. Mothers don't like children who lie. My sister broke daddy's jade pendant. It's my fault. . It would be nice to let my sister admit her mistakes to daddy, but if you help your sister lie, you will all become bad children, you know?"
Xiao Jingxing didn't know whether he understood it or not, but he was smart and knew that no matter what his mother said now, he would just agree.
He nodded his head seriously and looked at his mother with tears in his eyes: "Mom, don't be angry."
Luo Ran smiled, picked him up, kissed his forehead, and said, "Then let's go and admit our mistakes to daddy later, okay?"
Xiao Jingxing nodded seriously again.
Educate your son well, this time it’s your daughter’s turn.
Qing Ning was the one who gave her more headaches. This child usually had a bad temper and didn't listen to Jing Xing's advice. Luo Ran was just thinking about how to speak when she saw little Qing Ning crawling over from the couch and holding her mother's arm. Pointing outside and saying: "Daddy!"
Luo Ran was amused in his heart, but he said with a straight face: "Dad is angry! You pissed him off, what should I do?"
Xiao Qingning lowered her head and fiddled with her little hands. She was still a little disobedient and couldn't separate her fingers.
Luo Ran didn't speak either.
After a while, Xiao Qingning pointed outside and called out: "Daddy."
Luo Ran raised his eyebrows: "Does Qing Ning want to apologize to dad?"
Qing Ning lowered her head again, pouting her little mouth, looking very stubborn.
Luo Ran didn't know who followed her daughter's temper. Sometimes she would be soft and not hard, and more often she would be soft and not hard. At this time, Luo Ran simply ignored her. When the little girl felt lonely or figured it out, she would automatically crawl to her side.
It was the same this time. Luo Ran secretly asked Youqing to deliver food to the study, where mother and son ate together.
Until it was time to eat, little Qingning was still leaning forward and looking outside eagerly, as if she was still wondering why her father hadn't come back yet. Their family of four eats together every day, so why is it different today.
Luo Ran fed her a mouthful of porridge and said deliberately: "Eat, don't look at it, daddy is angry and won't come back."
After the meal, the nuns took the siblings to have a rest. The two little ones were very sleepy, and Luo Ran just pretended not to know.
Over there in the study, Fu Jinan stared at the food in front of him, with even some disbelief on his face.
Changying braced himself and explained: "My lord, the madam said that the young lady and the young master must be properly disciplined this time. So..."
So I have no choice but to eat in the study by myself.
In order to prevent the adults from getting angry, Changying quickly said: "By the way, Liu Zimo will arrive in the capital in three days. Should we advance..."
Fu Jinan picked up the chopsticks, looked at this dish, then that dish, and finally put it down with a snap, stood up and said, "Go and call Jiuchen."
Changying said: "Sir, the young prince is on duty today, but he hasn't gone off duty yet."
Fu Jinan frowned, picked up the cloak on the side, and went out without saying a word.
Chang Ying hurriedly signaled Chang Yun to put away the food, but he also told him: "Find a way to tell Madam that you didn't eat at noon."
After saying that, he turned around and followed him.
Seeing clearly that the master was going in the direction of the dungeon, Changying secretly burned a stick of incense for the newly captured craftsmen.
