This time, his father followed the wishes of the third prince and stayed at the border as usual. He took his two younger brothers back to Fucheng.
In this way, the father and son have military power in both places, and the third prince's strength is further expanded.
At this time of instability, only having military power is the most reassuring thing.
So he usually acts very cautiously and tries not to leave anything to say to others.
Ding Changhe angrily stopped his mother's stupid behavior. He didn't want to stay in the mansion, so he took Dashan to the suburban barracks.
After leaving the barracks, I thought about it and took a turn to go to Xiaxi Village.
When we arrived at Xiaxi Village, the sun was already setting.
Seeing the smoke rising from the courtyard, Ding Changhe dismounted and pushed the door open.
After moving back, An Ran and Sister Chen lived in the front, while Xiao Shitou lived in the back. Sometimes they would live in the front. Anyway, there were fewer people and more houses.
Sister Chen is cooking, An Ran is watering the vegetable field, and Little Shitou is having fun somewhere. ?.?????.???
An Ran had heard the sound of horse hooves a long time ago, and sighed helplessly, why did it come again?
Putting down the water ladle, Ding Changhe waved his hand and said, "Make me a pot of tea," without waiting for her to greet him.
An Ran turned around and went to the kitchen, letting Sister Chen watch as she added some more dishes, and then boiled water to make tea.
There was a deck chair in the courtyard, and Ding Changhe sat on the deck chair, leaning on the back of the chair and squinting his eyes.
An Ran put the tray down, poured tea for Ding Changhe, and said, "I look like I'm very tired."
"I'll eat here later."
"I just told Sister Chen to ask her to prepare more."
Ding Changhe glanced at An Ran and nodded. At least he didn't leave on his own this time.
When An Ran saw that Ding Changhe didn't say anything, he got up and went to the kitchen to help cook.
Yesterday Xiao Shitou was naughty and went to the river to catch a lot of small fish, which he planned to fry today. I don’t know if Xiao Shitou will lose his temper if he finds out that the fish he netted was eaten by his father.
An Ran took out the bacon and fried beans, and Sister Chen fried eggplants, mixed with a pot of green vegetables, and fried small fish, which was quite rich.
When Xiao Shitou came back shouting, he saw his father lying in the courtyard. He curled his lips secretly, but still went forward and said hello first.
"Where did you go to play? I came home so late." Ding Changhe found that the pants on Xiao Shitou's legs were torn and there was blood inside.
Little Shitou thought to himself, I come home so late every day.
"I went to Uncle Chen's house. I went to get the eggs with Brother Da Zhuang today. I didn't ask for them, so I gave them all to him. Let him go home and give them to Da Ya Er Ya."
"Go wash up, it's time to eat."
Xiao Shitou bowed and walked towards the kitchen.
Why is he eating at his own home again?
An Ran saw the expression on her son's face and guessed what he was thinking.
With a wink at his son, Xiao Shitou obediently went to wash his face and then took out the bowls and chopsticks.
It was getting dark now, and the three of them were eating in the main room. Xiao Shitou was eating fried small fish and asked, "Does father like to eat fried small fish?"
Ding Changhe glanced at this boy and wondered what he wanted to do.
"fine."
"If father likes to eat, I will catch more tomorrow. Mom said you are very busy and tired, but there is nothing good in the countryside, so I will catch more small fish."
Ding Changhe didn't believe that his son was so filial.
"It's not safe to go to the river often."
Xiao Shitou said with a smile: "I'm not afraid, I know how to swim, and my grandfather knows it."
At this time, Ding Changhe remembered that his father had punished him because of this incident, which seemed to make his father very angry.
After eating, as usual, Ding Changhe took the small stone to the open space outside.
When they came back, their clothes were soaked through.
Xiao Shitou happily took a bath and changed into new clothes.
But Ding Changhe has no clothes here.
But after Ding Changhe finished washing, Dashan came back and brought two sets of clothes bought from the town for Ding Changhe to change into.
An Ran was worried and asked him to sleep in a side room at night, fearing that he would not do it.
If he was allowed to sleep with Xiao Shitou in the back, he would be afraid of a fight between father and son.
At this time, I heard Ding Changhe say: "Xiao Shitou has a good talent. Let me take him back to Fucheng. The education he will receive here will be better."
An Ran said: "No, just stay here. Xiao Shitou doesn't like to go back either."
Ding Changhe's face darkened, "Are you really good for him, or are you lying? You know that going back is the best choice, but you always stop him. If you stay in this countryside, what will Xiao Shitou learn in the future?"
An Ran looked at why he was so angry today.
When Ding Changhe saw that An Ran was silent, he said, "I will take him away tomorrow. Otherwise, you can go with me."
"Little Shitou won't go with you."
"I'm his father. He has to go even if he doesn't want to. It's not up to him."
An Ran was also angry, "Master is trying to steal my son."
Ding Changhe said displeasedly: "Robbing, that's funny, that's my son too."
An Ran said solemnly: "There is something that I may not know. My mother-in-law said that as long as I don't go back to the Ding family and Xiao Shitou doesn't fight for the Ding family's property in the future, she will no longer have trouble with us."
Ding Changhe slapped the table and said, "Nonsense.".
Ding Changhe turned around and stared closely into An Ran's eyes and said, "How dare you slander your elders."
An Ran sneered, but it angered Ding Changhe.
Ding Changhe reached out and grabbed An Ran's wrist. It was the first time that the two of them were so close, but in such a situation.
"Slander, the contract written in black and white by my mother-in-law is here with me. I won't be afraid of anyone saying it if I take it out."
Ding Changhe actually threatened her. She had endured the Ding family and him for so many years, and now she had to suffer from his inexplicable anger. It was enough.
"I don't believe it. Take it out. Take it out in black and white. I want to read it."
Ding Changhe couldn't help but increase the strength on his hands.
safe hand
