Early the next morning, after finishing his morning exercises, Xiao Shitou simply washed himself and then came to the main courtyard in a hurry.
"I've met my father, I've met my mother, and I want to pay my respects to my father and mother."
An Ran was surprised when he saw such a small stone, which showed that he was really sensible.
Since the famine that year, when Dahei was beaten to death and eaten by the victims, Xiao Shitou knew that with his ability, he couldn't even protect his Dahei, so how could he protect his mother.
No matter how dissatisfied he was with his father and the Ding family, he no longer showed it easily, but seriously learned skills from them.
No matter how dissatisfied he is, if he has no real ability, the Ding family will not value him. Without the help of the Ding family, he doesn't know when he will be able to fly into the sky. How can he protect his mother?
So small stones vary a lot.
This change made An Ran both sad and happy.
After all, I am changing. Even if I resist in my heart, I have to try to accept it. ?.?????.???
The girl brought breakfast and set the table.
This is different from when we were in Xiaxi Village. Five or six kinds of food, plus porridge and soup, could not be eaten by three people.
An Ran thought to herself, no wonder she was picky about her own cooking, she really couldn't compare with them.
After breakfast, Ding Changsong's daughter-in-law, Ding Lin, came over.
Now she is in charge of the inner courtyard of Ding Mansion. Now that An Ran is back, it stands to reason that An Ran should take over the inner courtyard.
Although she didn’t know why her sister-in-law suddenly returned home, her mother reminded her yesterday that waiting for someone to ask for something would not look good on her face, so she came over early this morning with her account books and the keys to the warehouse.
No matter what this sister-in-law wants to do, she must show her attitude first.
"This is my younger brother and sister. They are really ladies of the family. I don't know much about taking care of housework, so please take care of it for me if my younger brother and sister continue to suffer."
Seeing An Ran say this, Ding Lin felt relieved.
"Looking at what my sister-in-law said, if I can help, I won't shirk it, but the inner courtyard should be in charge of my sister-in-law. If I continue to take charge, I will be overstepping my bounds."
"There are many things in the house, and my younger siblings have been taking care of them. Naturally, things at home have been smoothed out. It's better than me not knowing anything. My younger siblings shouldn't shirk it."
Ding Lin saw that An Ran really didn't want to take back the power of being the head of the inner house. After chatting for a few more words, they left with the ledger and keys.
An Ran thought to herself, I will come back to stay for a few days and reunite with my son. Why do you care about so many things?
But Ding Changsong's wife is quite polite. I wonder what Ding Changchuan's wife is like.
But this has nothing to do with her. They don't live in the same place anyway, so just be polite when meeting.
As soon as Ding Lin left, her aunt came to say hello.
An Ran looked at the five beautiful women standing in a row, and then glanced at Ding Changhe.
Ding Changhe asked in a low voice: "What?"
An Ran smiled softly, "Nothing, I'm so beautiful."
Ding Changhe glanced at An Ran, is this a taste?
At this time, Aunt Wen covered her lips with a handkerchief and coughed twice. Ding Changhe said, "If you feel uncomfortable, go back first."
Then he turned to look at the two women sent by his colleagues and said, "You two should go down and recuperate. There is no need to come out."
Ding Changhe spoke, and the three of them looked at each other and bowed before leaving.
After they left, Ding Changhe said to Mrs. Sun, who was in charge of the yard: "Serve tea and give a present to grandma."
Grandma Sun hurriedly asked the girls to bring two cups of tea, starting with Aunt Han, who offered tea and kowtowed to An Ran.
An Ran was a little amused. In all the years she had been in the Ding family, her concubine had never given her a gift. According to the logic, she did not accept the tea offered by her concubines and did not accept their courtesy, which was equivalent to not acknowledging their identity.
But as soon as I drank this tea today, I recognized them.
Xiao Shitou crossed his arms and stood behind his mother, watching curiously.
I had only heard of these things as stories from Grandma Ding before, but now I read them with gusto.
Aunt Han was the first to come in. She was the first to pick up the tea and bowed, "Grandma, please have tea."
An Ran now had a clearer understanding of what was going on in the mansion, so he just looked at her coldly and said nothing.
Seeing that An Ran didn't speak, Aunt Han spoke again, "Grandma, please have tea."
An Ran raised her eyebrows and glanced at Granny Sun.
Mrs. Sun coughed slightly and said, "Aunt Han, this is the first time I see my mistress serving tea, so I have to kneel down."
Aunt Han's eyes immediately turned red, she turned to look at Ding Changhe, and called out aggrievedly, "Cousin."
Ding Changhe just said, "Tea."
Tears fell from Xiao Han's eyes, and she knelt down in grievance, choking with sobs and said: "Grandma, please have tea."
An Ran was in a very bad mood at the moment, "If you don't want to, just get up. It's not unlucky to come to me crying early in the morning. It's the New Year."
After saying that, he stood up and turned around and entered the inner room. "
Aunt Yu stood behind and gave Aunt Han a complaining look.
He usually looks quite smart, but why is he so confused now? The uncle asked the three women to go down, but did not let them pay homage to the eldest grandma, because he did not want to acknowledge them.
I am now taking care of my adopted son for the uncle. Aunt Han is the madam's niece. It is impossible for them to send them away. The uncle just wants to give them an identity. How come she doesn't even understand this.
Ding Changhe was also a little angry. He made An Ran angry so early in the morning. Even he felt it was unlucky.
"I didn't know you were so wronged."
Ding Changhe sat in front and took the two of them
