After An Ran came back, Sister Chen saw this and hurriedly helped An Ran into the house and asked in a low voice: "Grandma, what's going on?"
An Ran said: "Go get me a basin of water first."
An Ran washed his face, drank two more glasses of water, and then said, "I just guessed that this happened. Fortunately, Mrs. Ding warned me in advance, otherwise I would have suffered a big loss today."
Sister Chen thought for a while and said, "They really want to take the little stone away."
An Ran smiled coldly.
Mrs. Ding once said that those tricks among women in the big house, if they keep children by their side and then manipulate you, they might even instigate the children to become corrupt and cripple them.
This is usually the method used by aunts to treat their concubines.
Sister Chen hurriedly asked: "What about Xiao Shitou? Why didn't Xiao Shitou come back with you, but was left in the main courtyard?"
"No, he was taken away by his grandfather."
Sister Chen, breathed a sigh of relief, "That's okay." ?.?????.???
In the front yard, Ding Shengkang taught Xiao Shitou how to practice Chinese calligraphy, took him to lunch, and then let him go back.
The main reason is that Xiao Shitou is thinking about his mother and can't concentrate on anything. This shows that this child is still very filial.
Xiao Shitou trotted all the way back to the yard, leaving the boy who sent him off far behind.
"Mother, mother, I'm back, what are you doing?"
An Ran smiled, put down the needle and thread in her hands, opened the door first, and let the little stone in.
Seeing that his mother was okay, Xiao Shitou jumped up and hugged his mother's neck. An Ran quickly held his little buttocks and picked him up.
"Still so naughty."
"Mom, are you okay? I've been worried about you all morning."
An Ran lowered his head and smiled, and whispered to his mother in his ear: "It's okay, didn't mother tell you everything?"
Xiao Shitou also smiled and said, "Then I have to come back and take a look before I feel relieved."
An Ran fetched water and washed her son's face, then went to the kitchen to steam a bowl of eggs for him. After watching her son finish eating, her mother and daughter talked in the room.
"Mom, if that old woman wants to cause trouble for you in the future, don't kneel down to beg her, and don't kneel down for others."
An Ran looked into Xiao Shitou's eyes and said, "That's how life is in a big house. You don't know what others are doing to plot against you. That's why my mother asked you to work outside and be careful what you say. Remember, trouble comes from your mouth."
"I know that. In the front yard, the nursing staff all like me, but why does that old woman hate me so much?"
"Because she hates mother first, and then she doesn't like you."
"He doesn't even like me, so why would he want to take me away and separate me from my mother?"
"Anyway, she is your grandmother. With her seniority here, we have no right to talk. Little Shitou, go to the main courtyard tomorrow to kowtow to your grandmother and admit your mistake."
Xiao Shitou glared and shouted at the top of his lungs: "I won't go."
"No matter what your grandmother did, we only have to admit our fault. You can ask your grandfather to take you there tomorrow. Nothing will happen."
Xiao Shitou thought for a while, "Okay, as long as I can cause less trouble for my mother, I will kowtow to her. In the village, when Grandpa Da Zhuang died, I kowtowed too much. This is nothing."
"If something happens in the future, you have to pay attention to the hints my mother gives you, so that both of us can suffer less injustice."
Xiao Shitou remembered that his mother had given him a hint when she knelt down, but he really didn't pay attention.
At that time, my mother must have seen my grandfather entering the yard, but she was careless.
But he still said: "But later, mother, you pinched my arm three times, and I understood. I can cooperate better next time."
An Ran sighed and said: "Maybe you will encounter other things in the future, you have to control your temper. It's okay that your grandfather is at home now. If your grandfather goes away, there will be no one to protect the two of us."
Xiao Shitou immediately said: "Grandpa said that he will leave people at home when he leaves and will not leave me alone."
When An Ran heard this, her heart was only half relieved.
The mother and son live cautiously in this mansion, and what they want is their son's future. She didn't have much ability to help her son, so she had to rely on the Ding family.
Thinking of the weak little Aunt Han, and the other two pretty aunts, and the beautiful women accompanying the uncle of the Ding family, he probably couldn't think of himself.
An Ran thought to herself that as long as her son was not taken away, they could do whatever they wanted, and she would not stand in anyone's eyes. Some people were destined not to be hers, and it was useless to force them.
"Little Shitou, you have to remember one thing. The etiquette and rules in this world must not be bad. We should bow our heads, but bowing our heads does not mean that we will admit defeat. When doing anything, think about whether you are reasonable or not, and let others take advantage of it. The most passive.”
Xiao Shitou took note of his mother's words carefully. Maybe he doesn't understand them all now, but he will definitely understand them in the future.
The next day, Xiao Shitou went to the front yard to practice stance with his grandfather, and then wrote another sentence before saying: "Grandpa, my mother told me when I went back yesterday that I shouldn't have lost such a temper in my grandmother's house. Please go with me and I'll apologize to my grandmother."
Ding Shengkang took a look and saw that this kid still had this consciousness.
Ding Shengkang took Xiao Shitou to the main courtyard. When he saw An Ran standing at the door, Xiao Shitou hurriedly ran over and asked, "Mom, why are you standing here."
"I've come to pay my respects to your grandmother."
An Ran met Ding Shengkang again.
Ding Shengkang said: "Go in."
The maid had already gone in to announce. As soon as the three of them entered the house, Mrs. Ding Han rubbed her head and helped the maid out of the inner room.
An Ran said first, "Greetings, mother."
Ding Hanshi snorted coldly, "I don't dare.
