After having dinner at An Ran's place, Xiao Shitou handed his mother a letter, "My uncle gave it to you. My uncle is getting married this winter. I will accompany my mother back." An Ran felt completely at ease now. Her family is very good. What can I say in winter? I have to go back too.
Xiao Shitou comforted his mother and then went to the front yard with Ding Changhe.
When he came back this time, Ding Changhe not only checked what he knew and learned along the way, but also answered his various questions.
After coming out of the study, he went to the martial arts training ground to check whether he had slacked off along the way. After a while, Xiao Shitou was no longer able to fight with his father.
Jiang Li next to him smacked his lips when he saw it. He was so harsh on his son. He was so cruel. It is estimated that the eldest young master will not be able to get up tonight.
Indeed, after practicing, Jiang Li supported the limping little stone and returned to the small yard that had been cleared for him.
"Young master, you now know the difference. Your father is still injured. You can't survive many moves in his hands. You should learn from him."
Jiang Li said to the grinning little stone. ?.?????.ℂ??
Xiao Shitou said bitterly: "Sooner or later I will surpass him."
Ding Changhe returned to the main courtyard. An Ran didn't know how long it would take them, so he went to bed first.
Ding Changhe didn't wake her up. He untied his clothes, extinguished the candle, and lay gently next to An Ran.
He was also very happy at the moment. If his eldest son succeeds, everything he does now will be succeeded by others.
It's just that this kid is too clingy and gives me a headache.
At dawn the next day, Ding Changhe left again after finishing his meal.
Xiao Shitou took the time to come over and complain to his mother.
"Mom, you don't know, my father was very cruel yesterday. My thighs and butt are hurting now."
An Ran is also funny. If he is cruel, he will always say hello to these two places. It will only hurt but not hurt.
But he still pinched his son's cheek and said, "Be careful what you say in front of him in the future. If you always make him unhappy, can he not deal with you?"
Xiao Shitou pulled his mother to act coquettishly. He turned his head and saw a red mark on his mother's neck. His face immediately changed, "Mom, is he bullying you?"
"No, I don't mess with him. Why did he bully me?"
"Then how did you get those bruises on your neck?"
An Ran covered her hand and then remembered that it was the night before yesterday. She lowered her head and coughed and said, "I was bitten by something. I applied the medicine and it hasn't gone off yet. It doesn't hurt. It's okay."
Xiao Shitou got closer and took a closer look. Don't let him know that the man was not good to his mother, otherwise he would never give him a good look again.
"Why don't you go to the front yard today? Follow your father's lead and learn from him. He knows exactly what you are missing now."
Xiao Shitou nodded, "I know that. He went out for something today. He said he was going to the military camp. There were a few lieutenants who were up to something. He had to go and have a look. Otherwise, I wouldn't have time to talk to my mother. .”
An Ran knew that although Ding Changhe was recovering from his injuries in name, his secret actions had not stopped. It is necessary to gather military power and win over people's hearts at the same time. This cannot be achieved in a short while.
At this moment, Ding Lin came over.
Xiao Shitou was still very polite. He quickly stood up and saluted, "I've met my second aunt."
Ding Lin looked at the energetic Xiao Shitou and said, "They say that the elder sister-in-law can raise children. Only then did I believe it. Look at Xiao Shitou's energy, which is different from other children from aristocratic families."
Xiao Shitou grinned. This second aunt was very good at talking. She praised both her mother and herself. It seemed that her mother got along well with her.
"Don't brag. His father punished him yesterday when he came back. What's the matter with my younger siblings coming over?"
Ding Lin said: "I heard from the housekeeper that my eldest brother asked me to prepare carriages and horses. Sister-in-law, you are going back. Don't you feel comfortable living in the house? Or I haven't made any arrangements."
Xiao Shitou turned to look at his mother. He knew that his mother had wanted to leave for a long time.
Sure enough, I heard his mother say: "Let my brothers and sisters worry about it. I told the uncle that I will go back to Xiaxi Village in two days. I originally planned to leave Xiao Shitou, so I went back. Who knew something would happen at home? I haven’t left yet, and now that everyone is fine, it’s time for me to go back.”
Ding Lin asked in confusion: "Sister-in-law doesn't like living in the mansion."
An Ran nodded, "I'm really not used to it."
In fact, Mrs. Ding Lin was also puzzled. Looking at her elder brother's attitude towards her sister-in-law, it was not as ruthless as he said, but why she allowed her to live in the countryside.
But another thought occurred to her: if An Ran didn't come back, the control of the Ding family would still be in her hands.
"I won't say much about the matters my sister-in-law decides. But if there is anything I need, my sister-in-law will tell me. I will never refuse if I can do it."
"Thank you, sister-in-law. Just take good care of the Ding family. You don't have to worry about me."
After Ding Lin left, Xiao Shitou said, "Mom, when will you return to Xiaxi Village?"
"Mom is waiting for you to come back. She will leave in the next two days. I am not used to living in Ding's house. There are too many things in Ding's family, so I still want to go back."
"I have time in the past two days, and I just want to send my mother back. Does my father know about this? Has he agreed to it?"
"I told him that your father is injured now and he still wants to go back to recover from his injuries."
"What? He's going to live there too."
"That's what your father said, but I guess he's busy with military affairs and won't be able to stay for a few days."
Xiao Shitou then calmed down. If his father also lived at his mother's place, he would still have to serve him if he couldn't protect his mother. If he loses his temper with his mother and she can't beat him, she will definitely suffer.
In the evening, Ding Changhe saw that Xiao Shitou was not leaving even so late, and said: "Xiao Shitou goes back to rest, pack things, and send them to you the day after tomorrow."
