In Han Yu's clear and loud reply, Han Hongye and his daughter stopped talking and laughing and looked over one after another.
Han Lanyun swallowed the shortbread and asked in surprise: "Brother Yu, are you going to town?"
Xiao Shuirong hummed: "Brother Yu is born in the first month of the year, so it's not a bad thing to study early."
The imperial court stipulated that boys could enter private schools at the age of four as long as they passed their husband's examination.
Han Lanling thought more: "Is Brother Yu a little young at this age?"
She was worried that someone in the private school would bully her younger brother who was weak and could be bullied because of his age.
Xiao Shuirong was not worried about this. He took the medicine bowl from Han Yu's hand and leaned forward to put it on the bench: "Brother Song, please ask him to take care of it. It shouldn't be a problem."
As for Han Hongqing, she had never thought about it at all.
If you open your mouth to him, then the second bedroom will really be unable to be separated from the third bedroom in the future.
Xiao Shuirong still hopes that one day he can be completely away from the Han family and these monsters.
Han Yu breathed out, trying to get rid of the bitterness in his mouth: "Yes, yes, there is a second brother."
I was worried that I couldn't find an opportunity to make progress with the male protagonist, so a pillow was delivered to my door.
Mom is so kind!
I love mom!
Looking into Brother Yu's bright eyes, Xiao Shuirong felt that all his resentment had turned into spring water, and a smile appeared on his face: "Brother Yu seems to like the second brother very much."
Han Yu nodded like garlic: "I like it."
Being good at studying and studying diligently is not much more likable than the original owner who is lazy and bad.
Before the end of the world, such a person would be what the Chinese language grandfather calls a top student, a favorite among teachers in various subjects.
Xiao Shuirong couldn't help but laugh, feeling more and more that he had made the right decision.
The eldest house and the second house had a good relationship, and she was happy to see Brother Yu getting close to the eldest house's children.
She was injured when she gave birth to Brother Yu, and it was difficult for her to get pregnant again. Brother Yu would probably not have any more younger siblings.
Everyone knows that it's hard to stand alone, and she doesn't want Brother Yu to be alone.
Han Lanyun chewed the bird eggs happily, grinding them carefully with her teeth, leaving a fragrant aroma in her mouth that she was reluctant to swallow in one gulp.
Hearing what Brother Yu said, she crawled next to Han Yu with some amusement and said, "Brother Yu, you have a brother and forget about your sister, which breaks my heart!"
Han Lanling and Han Lanyue were amused by her pretentiousness, covering her mouth and laughing.
Xiao Shuirong tapped Han Lanyun's forehead and said helplessly, "You little girl."
Han Lanyun stuck out her tongue at her mother and said reluctantly: "Brother Yu, tell me, do you like the second brother more, or do you like us more?"
When speaking, his eyes were aimed at Han Yu's cheek, and his meaning was very clear - if you dare to talk about the second brother, don't blame me for ignoring the relationship between brother and sister.
Han Yu shouted loudly: "Sister!"
It can be said that the desire to survive is very strong.
Han Lanyun got the answer she wanted, and crawled back satisfied, not forgetting to joke: "Brother Yu, study hard so that you can support us in the future."
Xiao Shuirong patted her lightly. How could she say so firmly, "Hurry up and eat, turn off the lights and go to bed."
The three girls responded in unison, finishing their portions of shortbread and eggs with a few bites, then got into bed.
Touching my round belly, I felt warm, comfortable and satisfied inside.
Xiao Shuirong kicked Han Hongye's calf: "Turn out the lights."
Han Hongye let out a slow sigh, got down from the kang, extinguished the oil lamp, and climbed up in the dark, not forgetting to tuck Han Yu into bed.
Han Yu didn't care whether Han Hongye could see it or not, she smiled at him in the dark, lay down and closed her eyes.
Sleeping on the warm kang, the children quickly fell asleep soundly.
Only Han Hongye was tossing and turning like a pancake and couldn't sleep.
Han Hongye felt like a cat was scratching in his heart and glanced at Xiao Shuirong several times across Han Yu.
However, Xiao Shuirong seemed to be fast asleep and didn't pay any attention to him.
Han Hongye wrinkled his face and held it in for half an hour. Finally, he couldn't hold it in any longer. He stretched out his arm and poked his wife: "Ah Rong."
The voice was as thin as a mosquito or fly, and was completely covered by the sound of wind.
As expected, Xiao Shuirong didn't respond.
"Ah Rong."
Poke again.
Still no response.
"Ah Rong."
The couple had been married for more than ten years, how could Han Hongye not know that she was pretending to sleep.
After thinking about it, I still felt that I had done something wrong inadvertently.
Otherwise, they had clearly agreed to send Brother Yu to a private school in two years. Why did they just ask Brother Yu if he wanted to study without discussing it with him, and they didn't even look at him after that.
If there is a problem, it must be solved as soon as possible, never overnight.
So he poked again.
This time Xiao Shuirong finally moved and whispered: "I asked Sister Zhi this afternoon."
Han Hongye's breath tightened, his fingers grabbed the corners of the quilt, and he didn't make a sound for a long time.
He didn't speak, and Xiao Shuirong didn't continue talking, just waiting.
The night is long and long, and time is slowly passing away.
Xiao Shuirong counted sixty and finally heard Han Hongye's difficult tone: "Is it...mother?"
It's a question, but it's an affirmative tone.
Xiao Shuirong sighed and looked at the dark beams: "I really wanted to chop her with a knife."
Even if she kills her descendants, she is not afraid of losing her life. After her death, she will go underground and face the ancestors of the Han family with no face!
It's one thing to have the answer in mind, but another to actually hear it.
Han Hongye's heart seemed to be grasped by a big invisible hand, and he was so painful that he almost shed tears.
He clutched the corner of the quilt tightly, his broad shoulders were trembling, and his voice was also: "Brother Yu is also a child of the Han family, how can she bear it?"
How could she be so cruel?
First, Brother Yu was injured, and then he was not allowed to see a doctor.
How much hatred do you have to have to watch your grandson die?
Could it be that he is worried that since he has Brother Yu, he will not put his third wife first in everything in the future?
Or...it's because he doesn't like his son that he hates Brother Yu so much?
Han Hongye felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, with cold air rising from the seams in his bones.
After a long silence, he added: "So study..."
Xiao Shuirong couldn't see his face clearly, but it didn't stop her from speaking bluntly: "With two old uncles from the Han family here, it may not be easy to separate the family. You should know this better than anyone else."
"Rather than blowing things up, forcing your mother to give Brother Yu justice, and finally making the fuss known to everyone, worsening the reputation of the Han family, and making the second wife bear the reputation of being disobedient and unfilial, and having his back poked by outsiders, it's better to borrow Let’s fight for Brother Yu’s real benefits.”
Although Qi Dani was at fault in this matter, in this environment where filial piety is the first priority in everything, once they fall out, they will definitely be notorious for disrespecting their biological mother/mother-in-law.
She herself didn't care, but Sister Ling and the others couldn't.
There is a living example from her natal family.
The parents were partial to the eldest child, so they took all the good things to the first room and almost killed the boy in the second room.
The second child couldn't bear it anymore and broke up with his parents and brothers.
In the end, justice was obtained, but trouble also followed.
As the elder couple and the elder family continued to cry miserably, many people sympathized with the weak and accused the elder couple and his family of being unfilial.
Many years later, the children talked about getting married, but it was difficult to get married because of this incident.
The son did not marry a widow until he was thirty years old. One of the two daughters married a widower, and the other married a sick man.
A few years later, the widow ran away with someone and gave birth to a child that was not her own.
The widower hit and scolded his eldest daughter. Once she was pushed to the corner of the table, knocked on her head and died.
The sick man with tuberculosis did feel pity for his little girl, but it was a pity that she was short-lived. She died after three years of marriage, and she didn't even leave any children.
More than ten years have passed since the incident, and people still often mention it, and its impact on the villagers in Shiliba Village still exists.
Anyone who cherishes his children would rather endure hardship and injustice than make things worse.
Of course, there are some whose reputations are not damaged after the success, but only a few.
The world is bound by the word "filial piety", and Xiao Shuirong is no exception.
She didn't want to bet on the small possibility, so Xiaozhi responded with emotion: "When Brother Yu got sick, I always felt that he seemed to have regained consciousness, and his eyes were not as dull as before. And I can see it. , he likes reading very much.”
When asked if he wanted to study, Brother Yu was full of vigorous and upward energy.
Han Hongye wiped his face and said in a low voice, "I can't help you ladies."
Xiao Shuirong turned sideways and put her hand on the back of his hand: "What can you do if the world is like this?"
As a parent, you should always act with caution and consider your children.
Asking herself, except for her mother-in-law's vicious words and her father-in-law's cold eyes, her life in the Han family was quite comfortable.
The husband is considerate, the children are well-behaved, and the relationship between the sisters is harmonious.
Of course, this sister-in-law does not refer to Huang Xiulan.
If Qi Dani hadn't put her hand on Brother Yu this time and almost lost his life, Xiao Shuirong wouldn't have made up his mind.
It was as if Han Hongye suddenly became tough and dared to compete with Han Hongqing for food in front of Han Fa Qi Dani.
Dragons have reverse scales, and their reverse scales are their children.
Han Hongye's mind was in a mess. He couldn't think of the reason, but he also knew that Xiao Shuirong's decision was far wiser than making a fuss.
If you miss this opportunity, it will not be easy for Brother Yu to study.
"That's fine. Brother Yu has gone to the town, and she...she can't reach out to the town."
Looking sideways at her husband who was holding his head in pain, Xiao Shuirong sighed silently, patted the back of his hand, and comforted him: "I know it's not easy for you, but after all we have children, we should plan everything for our little family. "
The lady's soft words soothed Han Hongye's scarred heart to a certain extent. He held her hand back and said, "Arong, I understand."
Xiao Shuirong knew that too much was too much, so he didn't hit him any more: "It's getting late, I have to work tomorrow, so go to bed early."
This is the end of the couple's night talk.
After a hard day, both of them were tired.
So even though he was preoccupied, he quickly fell asleep, and he didn't notice Han Yu's disordered breathing for a moment.
-
Han Yu went to bed late last night and slept until about three o'clock in the morning.
I don't know if it was because of a guilty conscience or something else, but this time I didn't hear Qi Dani yelling and cursing outside the house.
It was very quiet inside and outside the house, only the sound of reading could be clearly heard.
Han Song changed books today, and Han Yu kept reading, but he didn't have any more headaches.
At noon, Xiao Shuirong brought a bowl of egg soup into the house, stared at Han Yu and drank it without leaving any drop, and then went out to work again.
Not long after the meal, Han Song's voice sounded again.
Han Yu lamented that he worked really hard in reading. He cleared his throat and read in a low voice. He gained a lot in the afternoon.
It was getting dark, the villagers were returning home one after another, and the Han family courtyard became lively.
About half an hour later, the three sisters came in one after another after dinner, joked with Han Yu for a few words, talked about what they had done today, and then went behind the curtain to wash up.
Han Yu looked forward to seeing his mother and the bitter medicine, but Han Hongye didn't come back.
He had a vague guess in his heart, and looked at Xiao Shuirong, who was mending socks under the lamp: "Mother..."
"boom!"
A loud noise cut off Han Yu's words, and everyone except Xiao Shuirong looked at the door in unison.
Han Lanyun stuck her head out: "What's going on?"
Xiao Shuirong lowered his head and threaded his needle: "Maybe something fell down. It's none of our business. Wash your feet quickly and get on the kang. Don't freeze."
Han Lanyun responded well and retracted to continue playing in the water.
Han Yu clasped his fingers nervously.
Can Dad make it?
He was eager to study, but he also didn't want his father to be wronged.
Just by listening to the movement, one could tell that the two sides had quite a dispute.
Another quarter of an hour passed.
The sound of the door opening reached my ears through the night, and a few breaths later there was hysterical crying and cursing again.
The four siblings on the kang looked at each other in confusion, and they all recognized that the cry was Qi Dani's.
At this time, Han Hongye pushed the door open and came in, touching Han Yu's head with his rough palm: "Brother Yu will be able to go to a private school next year, are you happy?"
Han Yu raised his head and looked into his red eyes. The conversation he heard last night echoed in his ears, and his heart was sore.
Han Yu has never been so loved by anyone, and when he is touched, he will not say those coquettish words.
I just suppressed the heat in my eyes and said in a cheerful tone: "I'm happy! Mom and Dad, I will study hard!"
Han Hongye and Xiao Shuirong looked at each other and nodded in unison: "Hey, okay!"
