Chapter 172
The next day, it was the day when Jiang's family washed the three, and Mrs. Li led several children to pass.

Li Meier likes to look at children the most. Although the newly born children are not many beautiful ones, the one in her uncle's house is really handsome.Moreover, this is her first cousin, so Li Meier finds out countless merits to praise her uncle's son.

After several days of cultivation, Zhou Hanyu has recovered his color and is in good spirits. Hearing Li Meier praise her son, she smiled like a flower, stroked the lanugo on his son's head, and said, "This is the forehead. , look, it looks like there are many wrinkles, wrinkled."

Mrs. Xu laughed at the side, "It's okay, look at it when the moon is full, and you will be full."

Jiang also laughed, "Yeah, when Brother Kang was born like this, wrinkled like a little monkey, I was very worried that I would be an ugly boy in the future. As a result, the double eyelids also came out at the full moon. The eyebrows have also grown, and they are no longer wrinkled, they are white and tender, and everyone who sees them says they are handsome."

Mrs. Li murmured in her heart that her eldest grandson was not ugly when he was born, he was much more handsome than the Jiang family boy, but she had to agree, "Yeah, every child is handsome when he grows up." .”

Mrs. Li asked again, "Mother-in-law, can you choose a name for this child?"

Mrs. Xu replied with a smile, "His grandfather thought about it early in the morning. The single name is the word Yu, and the nickname is Brother Zhang, both of which mean beautiful jade."

Although Mrs. Li has no culture, she also thought the name sounded good, so she praised: "I didn't expect my father-in-law to be a learned man."

Mrs. Xu was a little uncomfortable with what she said, so she immediately changed the subject, "Now that my daughter-in-law and son have given birth, I can take this reassurance."

"Yes! Yes! While you are young, wait until Brother Zhang is weaned and have a few more children. It doesn't matter if you have sons or daughters. It is always a blessing to have many children and grandchildren." Mrs. Li agreed very much, Xu's words She resonated very much, thinking that she hoped that her grandson Pan's neck would grow.

Li Mei'er couldn't help but rolled her eyes, thinking that her grandmother and grandmother were all patriarchal.

Mrs. Li ignored her at all, she was just like that, these days, you have to have a son to be confident.

After talking with Xu Shi and Zhou Hanyu for a while, it was time for the third bath.

Mrs. Xu personally carried her eldest grandson to complete the cleaning, and everyone had a banquet at Jiang's house. Today, many guests came to Jiang's house, including some famous gentry in the town. Li Meier saw Zhou Muyi at the banquet again.

"Ah Yi, you didn't get beaten that day when you went back, did you?" Li Meier asked Zhou Muyi very bluntly.

"Call me brother!" Zhou Muyi stared, and was about to reach out and knock Li Meier's head.

"According to your seniority, I should call you cousin." Li Mei'er moved flexibly, and immediately avoided it.

"Just call me brother, don't call me old for nothing." Zhou Muyi sat down next to Li Meier in dissatisfaction, sighed and continued, "My mother became ill after I went back, so I can't mess around anymore."

Li Meier thinks about it, it seems that only Mr. Zhou and Zhou Mujin and his wife are here today in the Zhou family. The Qin family did not come together, and grandson Xisan didn't come over for such a big day. It seems that he is seriously ill.

Li Meier instantly felt a little more sympathetic towards Zhou Muyi, and her attitude improved a lot. She asked with concern, "Did you read it, doctor? What does the doctor say?"

"The doctor just said that it's because you're worrying too much, it's a heart disease, and you need to take good care of it." Zhou Muyi sighed, and continued, "I know that mother is worried about my sister, and that's why she fell ill."

Li Meier was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Zhou Muyi's sister seemed to be sick and went to the countryside not long ago. Thinking that this was a family matter, she didn't ask any more questions, and continued to comfort her: "Auspicious people have their own appearance, your mother will definitely It's okay, you have to cheer up and don't make your mother angry anymore."

"I know, so my father wants to send me to the academy in the state capital, and I agree." Zhou Muyi said dejectedly.

"Academy in the state capital? Is it Bailu Academy?" Li Meier asked suspiciously. Isn't that academy only for scholars to enter.

"It's not Bailu Academy, it's another Qingfeng Academy, which specializes in recruiting elementary school students. I heard that it has just opened. The head of the mountain is a retired seventh-rank magistrate. He chose to open the academy. It is said that the academy is very difficult to enter. Go in. There is an assessment before, if you fail the assessment, you will not be able to enter, it is extremely strict." Zhou Muyi and Li Meier explained.

"Then how can you go in?" Li Meier looked at Zhou Muyi suspiciously, but she knew that the guy in front of her with half a barrel of knowledge would not be able to pass the academy's assessment.

Zhou Muyi smiled wryly, "My father provided free student shirts to all the students in the academy, and that's why he got me a spot as an auditor."

Oh!It turned out to be the power of money, Li Meier suddenly realized, and then persuaded with more sympathy: "Since your father has paid for it, then you should study hard when you get to the academy." Don't let such a large sum of money down.

Zhou Muyi scratched his head a few times in pain, "But I don't like studying at all. Even if I go to an academy, I won't be able to learn it."

"In order to make your mother feel at ease, you can go. It is good to learn more things. Besides, after you leave home, your parents can't control you like they are now. Even if you practice martial arts secretly, they won't know about it." " Li Meier saw how pitiful Zhou Muyi was, so she gave him an idea.

Zhou Muyi's eyes lit up immediately, "That's right, they don't care about me when I get to the county seat, so I can do whatever I want."

After Zhou Muyi figured it out, she was so excited that she hugged Li Meier and said excitedly, "Sister Meier, you are really my good sister, thank you for reminding me!"

Zhou Muyi's strength was so strong that Li Meier was almost out of breath from being hugged by him, so she quickly punched his back with her hands, "You...be gentle, I... can't breathe anymore."

Jiang Shanqing, who had been silent by the side, also turned dark now, and rescued Li Meier from Zhou Muyi's hands in one fell swoop, looking at him with an unfriendly expression.

Zhou Muyi scratched his head in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, sister Meier, I'm just too excited."

Li Meier managed to catch her breath, and gave him a white look, "Whether a man or a woman can kiss each other, don't do this in the future!"

Zhou Muyi looked at the round and chubby little Douding in front of him, and couldn't help laughing, "Sister, you are really knowledgeable. Are these words from "Confucius" or "Mencius?"

Zhou Muyi really deserves to be a scumbag. He has been studying for several years, and he has not read all four books.

"From "Mencius Li Loushang", Chunyu Kun said: 'Whether a man or a woman is close to each other, does he look like a man?' Mencius said: 'Li also.'" Jiang Shanqing said with a dark face, "Zhou Muyi, you not only have to study hard, You have to learn etiquette well."

Zhou Muyi was a little embarrassed. After being taught by Jiang Shanqing like this, his face was not very good-looking, but he was wronged first, so he could only say weakly: "I know, I promise I won't do this in the future."
