"Miss, slow down..." Yinhuan, the maid of Lanyun Court, warned the little man running ahead with a worried voice.
"Bang!" Yan Huan, who was chasing the butterfly without looking where he was, ran straight into the painting table.
"Ah, Madam's painting!" Tan Yu exclaimed, hurriedly taking a silk handkerchief to dip the paint on the painting.
But the painting was still ruined.
"Wow -" Yan Huan, who was hurt by the impact, covered his forehead and cried loudly.
Yinhuan was frightened and hurriedly ran forward to check: "Miss, don't cry, let me take a look at the injury."
"What do you think of my child? Half an hour of my wife's hard work has been ruined by you." Tan Yu angrily turned to Yinhuan.
Yan Huan was a young lady and she couldn't scold her, so she could only vent her anger on Yin Huan.
Yinhuan was so anxious that she almost cried, and quickly knelt down to apologize: "Madam, I forgive you, I didn't mean it."
Tan Yu was reluctant to give up: "You just said a word that was not intentional, and it's over. Did you know..."
"Okay, don't embarrass her." Jiang Shu stopped her, and finally said to Yinhuan: "Hurry and see if the lady is injured."
"Thank you, madam, for your forgiveness." Yinhuan carefully took away Yan Huan's hand covering his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief after looking at it.
Fortunately, the lady did not break the skin, but only got a red patch.
"Wow!" Yan Huan, who was hurt by the collision, kept crying, no matter how much Yinhuan coaxed him, he couldn't.
The servants passing by in the distance looked here curiously, speculating.
"Madam." Chu Yu reminded in a low voice.
If this story were to spread today, Madam might have a reputation of being mean and narrow-minded.
Jiang Shu sighed secretly in his heart. He went out today without reading the almanac.
Recalling the past when Jiang Ning was crying, she used sweets to calm her down, so Jiang Shu tried her best and said, "Yan Huan, can I treat you to some sweets?"
As soon as he heard that there was candy, Yan Huan stopped crying and looked at Jiang Shu with red eyes like a little rabbit.
Seeing such an adorable little girl, Jiang Shu felt soft in his heart and went over to pick her up and coax her with a gentle voice.
"Yan Huan, be good, it won't hurt anymore after you eat the candy."
Chu Yu moved very quickly and soon brought out a pack of candy and a box of ointment.
"Eat it." Jiang Shu put the candy in front of Yan Huan.
Yan Huan glanced at her tentatively, then grabbed the candy with her tender lotus root-like hands and put it in her mouth.
After all, he is only a three-year-old child, how can he resist the temptation of candy.
While she was eating sweets, Jiang Shu dug out the cold ointment with his index finger and applied it carefully on her red forehead.
Yin Huan stood aside tremblingly, not even daring to express his anger.
The young lady was injured and bumped into the madam again. She was to blame for being a servant, so a punishment was unavoidable.
However, Jiang Shu didn't mention it at all, which made her lucky and uneasy.
After applying the medicine to confirm that there was no serious problem, Jiang Shu told Yan Huan: "Be more careful when playing in the future. Don't stare at the sky, but watch the road."
Yan Huan ate the sweet milk and responded with a milky voice: "I know, mother."
Jiang Shu was startled when he heard the voice of mother, and subtle emotions arose in his heart.
"Where is your brother? Why didn't I play with you?" Jiang Shu gently chatted with the child.
"Brother has gone to school." Yan Huan pouted. It's not fun at all when his brother is away.
Jiang Shu suddenly realized, yes, Shen Changze had mentioned this matter to her.
After playing with Yan Huan for a while, Jiang Shu saw her yawning, so Jiang Shu told Yinhuan: "Take the lady back."
"Yes." Yinhuan cautiously stepped forward and hugged Yan Huan.
Yan Huan looked at Jiang Shu reluctantly...the halva on the table next to him.
"Little greedy cat." Jiang Shu was amused and gave her the rest of the candy.
After sending Yan Huan away, Tan Yu muttered while clearing the painting table.
"It's really unlucky. You can't be angry if your painting is destroyed, and you have to coax the child with candy..."
Tan Yu felt that Mrs. Jin, mother and son were Mrs. Laike's.
"A pack of crispy candies in exchange for saying "Mother", I got a big deal." Jiang Shu was half sincere and half joking.
Tan Yu stared angrily.
Jiang Shu understood why Tan Yu was angry and the threat Cheng Jinchu and her son posed to her, but she really couldn't vent her anger on a child.
Children are innocent and should not be angry.
"Chu Yu, go buy a few things for me." Jiang Shu suddenly ordered.
At noon, Cheng Jinchu returned to Lanyun Court to have lunch with Yan Huan, but Yan Huan refused to eat after a few bites.
"What did Miss have for breakfast?" Cheng Jinchu asked.
Yinhuan said timidly: "Back to Madam, Miss has eaten half a pack of halva."
"Where did you get the candy?" Cheng Jinchu glanced at Yinhuan with sharp eyes.
Yinhuan didn't dare to hide anything and responded truthfully.
When he heard Yan Huan's forehead hit the table, Cheng Jinchu's expression turned cold and he pushed aside the broken hair from Yan Huan's forehead to check.
There is no broken skin, but there is a small bulge.
"Madam, please forgive me. I will take good care of you in the future." Yinhuan knelt down, begging for mercy in fear.
Looking down at the trembling silver ring on the ground, Cheng Jinchu pursed his lips and said, "The child is naughty. Even I can't help it sometimes. I don't blame you."
She was heartbroken when Yan Huan was injured, but she had just taken charge of the Marquis Mansion, and she had caused a fatal incident not long ago, so everyone in the manor was dissatisfied with her. If you continue to punish your servants for trivial matters, I am afraid that you will completely lose their support.
Furthermore, she was currently busy with winemaking and the opening of the winery, and had no time to take care of Yan Huan, so she could only let her servants take care of him. If it is too strict, Yan Huan may become a hot potato.
After much thought, she could only treat others with tolerance now.
"Be more careful from now on. You and I are both women. You should know that appearance is precious. If the lady loses her appearance, even the Marquis will not be able to spare you." Cheng Jinchu gave a warning both soft and hard.
"Yes, I must be careful in the future." Yinhuan broke into a cold sweat.
"Also, let the young lady have less contact with other people."
Cheng Jinchu didn't mention his name, but Yinhuan's scalp tightened when he heard it.
In the evening, Yan Yang returned home from school, his head drooped with an unhappy look on his face, and the boy behind him also had a sad face.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that the two people looked strange, Cheng Jinchu hurriedly asked.
The boy held his book bag, glanced at Yan Yang and whispered: "The young master was reprimanded by the teacher."
"Why?"
The boy replied truthfully.
It turned out that Yan Yang was used to it from a young age, and he felt a lot of discomfort when he first entered the classroom. It was difficult for him to even sit still, let alone listen carefully to the lectures.
Moreover, he had a bad temper. He even talked back after being scolded by his teacher. The angry teacher blew his beard and stared at him, punishing him to come back and recite the disciple rules.
What did she think it was?
Cheng Jinchu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this and didn't think the situation was serious.
"I will handle this matter, don't tell the Marquis yet."
Cheng Jinchu knew that Yan Yang would be tired of being restrained for a day, so he told him to go play for a while and teach him to recite after dinner.
As soon as he heard that he could play, Yan Yang was so happy that he immediately forgot about being trained and punished.
When Shen Changze stepped into Lanyun Courtyard, he saw Yan Yang and Yan Huan chasing and playing in the yard, laughing endlessly.
"Daddy." Seeing Shen Changze, the two children cheered and ran towards him.
Shen Changze bent down and picked them up. Cheng Jinchu heard the noise and came out of the room. The four of them looked at each other and smiled.
"My husband is back. It's time to wash your hands and eat."
Shen Changze responded and strode towards Cheng Jinchu with his two children in his arms.
