Mansion of Prime Minister Cen.

When Xu Qingtong received the news that Ichilang would be back before sunset, he was instantly attracted.

It has been more than a month since Ichiro left Beijing to help with disaster relief under the order of the Emperor. She hasn't seen Ichiro for such a long time, so naturally she misses him terribly.

When I woke up in the morning, even though I knew it was impossible for the person to come back so soon, I still couldn't help but send someone to the front yard to inquire about the news.

Knowing that there was still no news, she couldn't sit still, and kept asking people to prepare food and change clothes for him to change when he came back...

The busy time lasted until Cen Xunchu, who was already ten years old, came to pay his respects to her after finishing school.

When Xu Qingtong was young, she was doted on by her parents. When she grew up, she was also cared for by Prime Minister Cen. Even though she is now in her thirties, her mentality is still like that of a little girl and she likes to stay in bed. Of course, there are other reasons for this, which I will not go into.

Therefore, Cen Xunchu started to learn to read and write at the age of six. After moving to the front yard, he would always come to pay his respects before lunch and accompany her for lunch.

Cen Xunchu is indeed the child who was raised by Prime Minister Cen under his one-on-one teaching. Even at such a young age, his behavior and manner are somewhat similar to Prime Minister Cen.

Even the smiles were fake. Of course, this was towards others, towards the most important woman in their hearts, so it was naturally sincere.

When Cen Xun first entered the house, he took off his hat with the help of the servants, and then walked up to Xu Qingtong and said to him respectfully and politely, "Your son greets you, mother. Long live the mother!"

"Good brother, come here quickly!" Seeing his son changing more and more day by day, the opportunities to get close to him became fewer and fewer. Therefore, even if they had not seen each other for just one night, Xu Qingtong missed him terribly and immediately waved to him to come closer.

After greeting her, Cen Xunchu immediately smiled and took two steps forward to let her grab his hand.

"You look thinner again. You eat enough food every day, so why don't you gain weight? You only grow taller!" Xu Qingtong held his hand and shook her head in dissatisfaction.

She turned him around and looked at the skirt that seemed a little short, a little unsure, "Is this dress too short again?"

Songluo tilted her head, took a look, and nodded affirmatively, "From my opinion, it is a little short!"

"It's too short, so we have to tailor it again!" Xu Qingtong nodded and asked someone to measure his size. She drank tea on the side, watching her son grow more and more handsome as he got older, and sighed, "Chu Ge'er has grown taller again. He is still young now, so he can grow taller. In a few more years, he will probably be taller than Yilang!"

"Your Excellency doesn't look short. Look at all the people in the capital. Is there anyone who is more handsome and taller than you?"

"The young master is the son of an adult, and he has his own style at such a young age!" Songluo joked, "In a few years, when the young master gets married and has two big fat grandchildren, your good days will be long!"

"Aunt Song, please don't make fun of me. I'm still young and haven't passed the imperial examination yet!" Cen Xunchu blushed at Song Luo's teasing, but he still said, "I want to learn from my father and wait until I achieve success before thinking about starting a family and building a career!"

The older he gets, the more he realizes how incredible his father and mother's decades-long love is.

I know that the relationship between the fathers and mothers of many good friends is not good, and it can even be said that they are speechless when they meet. Not everyone loves their own children.

After this, he made up his mind that when he grew up, he must follow his father's example and marry someone he loved and who also loved him. Only in this way could his child be born in expectation and grow up in an environment full of love, just like him!

"Oh, the young master is actually thinking about passing the imperial examinations and getting married!" Songluo was surprised. She looked at Xu Qingtong, then glanced at Cen Xunchu. "It seems that what Madam said is right. The young master has really grown up and wants to get married. Hahaha!"

"Hahahaha!" Xu Qingtong also laughed, and suddenly, everyone in the room laughed.

For a moment, the scene was full of excitement, and Cen Xunchu blushed all the way to his neck. Just when he was about to get angry, Xu Qingtong stopped laughing and waved to the embroiderers to come forward. "Madam!" The embroiderers bowed and saluted.

"Have you measured everything?" Xu Qingtong asked, and then gestured on Cen Xunchu's waist twice, and continued, "Now that the weather is hot, the new clothes should be fresh and breathable!"

"Chu Ge'er likes to wear cotton clothes when he rides. You should make a few clothes that are convenient for riding and shooting. Don't wear something too plain. Chu Ge'er is getting old, and he needs to wear good clothes when he goes out to play. I remember there are some good materials in the warehouse that Ichiro got a few days ago. Songluo, take two of them to the embroiderers and ask them to make two clothes for Chu Ge'er!"

"Yes, ma'am!" Songluo leaned forward and responded.

"Don't embroider the collar of your inner garment; it will be uncomfortable to wear..." Xu Qingtong reminded him one by one, his words full of respect and care for Cen Xunchu.

The embroiderers did not dare to be careless, even though this was not the first time they had experienced this. They remembered clearly what they should pay attention to and what they should avoid, but they still listened carefully.

Remembering doesn't mean you won't make mistakes. The masters' instructions are all reasonable and must be kept in mind.

He gave instructions for a full quarter of an hour, until he had gone through all the precautions. He only stopped when his mouth was dry. He made sure that the embroiderers had remembered everything, waved his hand and asked them to leave. Only then did he have time to pick up the teacup and take a sip.

Putting down the teacup, he saw that he had been in the room for such a long time and was still sweating, so he hurriedly said, "Come here, put two more basins of ice in the room. Look at how much sweat Chu Ge'er has on his face!"

"Mother, it's okay!" Cen Xunchu shook his head, took the handkerchief she handed over and wiped the sweat off his face, and continued, "I'm sweating because I'm angry. I'll be fine after sitting for a while!"

He has had this problem since he was a child. His mother is not unaware of it, but she just feels sorry for him because of the heat.

He never treated himself badly in his own room, as he always had plenty of ice.

A mother's concern can lead to confusion.

"Mother, you are in poor health. You can't use so much ice!" As he said this, he signaled with his eyes that Songluo should not listen to his mother.

We knew he was coming at this time, so we had already put a basin of ice in the room. If we added more, it would be really cold.

Songluo glanced at Xu Qingtong, then at Cen Xunchu, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

After a moment's hesitation, her concern for her ladyship got the better of her, and she waved for the men below to place the ice in the far corner.

In this way, the lady's order is obeyed, the cold air will escape, the hot air will not come in, and the room will not become very cold.

"You kid!" Seeing Songluo like this, Xu Qingtong said helplessly.

But I couldn't help but feel relieved by his thoughtfulness.

"It's hot now, and the sun is getting hotter. Can you still hold on to the horseback archery class this afternoon?"

"If it really doesn't work, go back before the sun sets, and don't get a heat stroke!"

"In a few years, you will be able to get married, so don't get tanned. It doesn't matter if you get tanned, but it's better not to get tanned!" Xu Qingtong, who likes beautiful women, doesn't want his son to turn into a black boiled egg, so he starts to worry.
