Chapter 26

Xia Demao made a fuss, and ended up being locked in the room hungry.

After all, at this critical moment, no one is willing to touch Xia Keyu's bad luck, otherwise the members of the Xia family will all be suspected of collaborating with Aunt Rong to frame Fan Shuyao.

If the members of the Fan family found out about this, there would be trouble again.

After dinner, Xia Keyu signaled the kitchen to make some meat dishes and soup, and then asked Qing Ya to take the lunch box and walk to Xia Demao's small yard.

Xia Demao lay on the bed weakly and hungry while looking at today's homework, but also had to recite scriptures and write big characters.

But if you can't finish it, you will go to the academy tomorrow, and you will inevitably have to be beaten by your master again.Thinking of this, Xia Demao couldn't help but began to secretly wipe away tears.

The door opened with a creak, Xia Demao raised his head, and when he saw that it was Xia Keyu, he suddenly retracted his head into the bed again, so he didn't want to see this bad sister.

Seeing this, Xia Keyu smiled, and signaled Qing Ya to take out all the food in the lunch box, put it out, and exaggerated:
"Wow, what a big elbow, I don't know who would like to eat it~"

Xia Demao on the bed licked his lips greedily when he heard this, but said nothing.

Xia Keyu then took out another plate of delicious steamed buns, and continued: "If no one eats it, I will throw away this big steamed bun."

Hearing this, Xia Demao hurriedly lifted the quilt, got out of bed and said, "Don't throw it away, I want to eat."

Xia Keyu looked at Xia Demao with a smile, motioned Qing Ya to serve him soup, and then said: "You can eat it if you want, but you have to tell me, who told you to hit me while eating today?"

Xia Demao lowered his head and said, "It's the second sister."

It really was Xia Kelian.

Xia Keyu had guessed it a long time ago, and immediately asked, "What do you think I did wrong?"

Xia Demao said dissatisfied: "You locked up Aunt Rong."

Xia Keyu handed him the spoon, beckoning him to drink the soup first, and then explained:

"It's not that I want to close Aunt Rong, but Aunt Rong wants to poison my mother to death. She has done something wrong and she has to be punished."

"What is death?" Xia Demao asked puzzled.

Xia Keyu blinked and said:

"Mao'er, after death, from now on, this person will never talk to you or move, and you will never see your mother again. This is called death."

"You know, Mother was injured when she gave birth to you. You shouldn't face outsiders."

Xia Demao, who had said a few words, stopped talking, and just lowered his head to drink the soup.

Xia Keyu then asked: "Are you blaming me for sending you to a new academy?"

Xia Demao gnawed at the steamed buns and nodded.

Xia Keyu sighed, and educated:
"Mao'er, you are a man in the family. A man has to study hard so that he can gain fame in the future and become an official in the court."

"But if I can't finish my homework, the teacher will beat me up." Xia Demao said aggrievedly, his chubby face was about to cry.

Seeing this, Xia Keyu reached out and rubbed his younger brother's chubby head, and comforted him: "It doesn't matter if Maoer can't finish at the beginning, sister will help you."

Xia Demao wolfed down his meal, Xia Keyu accompanied him first to write big characters, and then asked him to endorse. After tossing for a long time, he finally finished today's homework.

Only then did Xia Keyu say with satisfaction: "Mao'er is doing well today, let's continue tomorrow."

When she got up and walked to the door, Xia Demao whispered, "Sister, I'm sorry."

In contrast, he knew that his elder sister was really looking out for his own good. She was afraid that he would be hungry, so she brought him food; she was also afraid that he would not study well, so she changed him to a better school; fearing that he would be beaten, she accompanied him to finish his homework.

Xia Keyu gave him a gentle smile, and said, "I know, it's a good boy if you know your mistakes and correct them."

With that said, he carefully closed the door.

Today's Xia Demao is only five years old, just in the childhood stage, without the unscrupulous doting of the Xia family, he will not be as unreasonable as in his previous life.

As long as she teaches patiently, she believes that Xia Demao will be on the right track.

Early the next morning, Xia Demao got up early, and after breakfast, he urged his subordinates to send him to the academy.

He finished all his homework last night and recited the book so well that he is not at all afraid that his master will beat him.

This made everyone in the Xia family look at him with admiration, Mrs. Xia sighed again and again: "Yu'er still has a way."

Xia Kelian at the side gritted her teeth when she heard this.

She didn't expect that Xia Keyu was so resourceful that he could subdue this little chubby so easily.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xia asked, "Yu'er, Lian'er, the concubine's birthday in the palace will be in two days. Are you ready for your birthday present?"

Xia Kelian who was on the side quickly interjected, "Report to grandma, Kelian is ready."

Mrs. Xia nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Xia Keyu.

Xia Keyu said obediently, "The granddaughter is not ready yet."

Xia Kelian who was on the side immediately seemed to have seized the opportunity, and said in a strange way: "Sister is really big, and she doesn't even care about the birthday of the imperial concubine."

Mrs. Xia on the side also frowned, and said displeasedly: "Yu'er, why didn't you tell me earlier if you didn't prepare a birthday present?"

Seeing this, Xia Keyu explained calmly: "Reporting to grandma, the reason why my granddaughter didn't prepare a gift herself is because Princess Liang promised to help me choose a gift."

"The granddaughter thinks that the birthday of the imperial concubine is also to choose a beautiful daughter for the third prince. The granddaughter is already engaged, so it is inappropriate to show off on this occasion."

Mrs. Xia, who was speaking in one sentence, nodded repeatedly and praised: "Yu'er is still thoughtful."

Xia Kelian at the side was furious when she heard it, but she had no choice but to hold her anger in her heart.

This time, she must become famous in one fell swoop, win the favor of the imperial concubine and empress, make everyone look at her with admiration, and want to overwhelm Xia Keyu.

Seeing this, Xia Keyu asked unintentionally, "What gift did my sister prepare this time?"

Xia Kelian was afraid that people would find out, so she hurriedly said, "E Lian'er is going to play the piano at the banquet."

She did not dare to mention the matter of painting.

Although Mrs. Xia didn't like her granddaughter to show her face, she thought in a blink of an eye that it might be an opportunity. Besides, Xia Kelian was only a concubine, so it didn't matter.

Xia Keyu gave a clear "Oh" and said, "Then sister must be well prepared."

Xia Kelian returned her a perfunctory smile, which is what she, Xia Keyu, said.

Xia Keyu also gave her a sweet smile back. The things she arranged for Qing Ya to buy have already been delivered. When the time comes, she will definitely surprise Xia Kelian.

Xia Kelian is afraid that she will be happy for nothing.
