The cannon fodder stepmother dressed as the villain Zai Zai

Chapter 44 Let’s go and see my son

Although Sheng Lixuan was a military commander who fought hard and fast on the battlefield, he was not an ordinary martial artist. Instead, he was extremely elegant and unforgettable.

While Sheng Lixuan was washing up, the two elders gathered with Sheng Yue and discussed holding a celebration in the Marquis's mansion to celebrate the Marquis's safe return.

Song Wentong led the two imperial doctors from the palace, arranged accommodation for them, and ordered his servants to entertain them well and not to neglect them.

"By the way, where is the little guy? Come on, let me go see him. I haven't seen him for a long time. I don't know if this little guy has grown taller or what he has become..."

Sheng Lixuan turned around and said to the maid who was waiting for him to change.

The maid knew that her Marquis was an approachable master, not as cold as he appeared, so the servants were usually more relaxed and less restrained in front of the Marquis.

Especially since Lord Marquis has not been at home for a long time, the maid said directly without thinking: "Don't worry, Lord Marquis, there is a eldest lady, oh no..."

As soon as the words left her mouth, the maid realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly changed her words: "With Mrs. Xu here, the young master becomes a lot more cheerful. Mrs. Xu has been by the young master's side these days."

"Even when the young master was learning archery and martial arts, it was Mrs. Xu who accompanied him and explained the explanations carefully, so that the young master could practice with peace of mind. During the time when the Marquis was away from home, the house was quite peaceful, so the Marquis did not have to be too nervous. If you are too worried, please focus on taking good care of yourself."

"Oh? You said that too?" Sheng Lixuan raised his eyebrows.

The maid was confused and didn't know how to pronounce the word Hou Ye: "Has anyone else mentioned Mrs. Xu to the Hou Ye?"

Sheng Lixuan raised his eyebrows, and he became even more interested in Mrs. Xu, whom he had never met before.

Although Sheng Lixuan was still very young and full of energy, he had deep feelings for Sheng Ze's biological mother.

Since the death of his first wife, various princes, nobles, and even royal princesses have had the idea of ​​marrying him, but they were all politely rejected by Sheng Lizuan.For this reason, he even offended His Majesty the Emperor.

Sheng Lixuan didn't want to interact with these women who were sent by various families to celebrate their happiness, and felt quite conflicted in his heart.

But now, seeing that Sheng Yue and the people in the Hou Mansion spoke so highly of Mrs. Xu, he felt that he should meet her.What kind of magical power does this woman have that can control the little bully who is not afraid of anything and everything? This really surprised him.

"According to what you say, I really want to meet this Mrs. Xu."

Sheng Lixuan smiled and said with gentle eyes: "But before that, I have to go see that little kid. He won't be able to see me during this period, so he should be anxious."

The maid laughed and said, "That's just right. Mrs. Xu is in the young master's room right now, playing with him. Mr. Marquis, you and your little one can just go over and see her."

"So much the better."

Sheng Lixuan nodded and walked to his son's room with the maid, wanting to see how little Shengze, whom he hadn't seen for many days, was doing.

Sheng Lixuan and the maid quietly came to the young master's room. In order to give the little guy a surprise, he told his servants to be silent and silent along the way. Then the marquis stopped at the door of the young master's room. The steps did not go in immediately.He wanted to see first how powerful Mrs. Xu was and how she got along with this little brat. After all, seeing is believing and hearing is false. You can't make rash judgments on a matter based on other people's guesses.

As the Marquis of the Qingdu Marquis Mansion, Sheng Lixuan still hoped to personally verify who Xu Yaqin was.

At this moment in the young master's room, Xiao Shengze's problem has been solved by Xu Yaqin, and Xu Yaqin has also been coaxed into a happy mood by the young master, and her depressed mood has been swept away.

After eating some food, it was still early, and the young master sat in front of the table, clamoring for Xu Yaqin to tell him a story.

Xu Yaqin didn't know that someone was approaching from outside the room. Her eyes were all focused on the little boy. She nodded:

"Okay, I can tell you a story, but there are conditions for telling the story. I will only tell the story if the young master can fulfill my request."

The young master thought for a while, then asked eagerly with his big eyes open:
"any request?"

Xu Yaqin didn't show off, and went straight to the point: "I have only one request, and that is that in the martial arts class at the martial arts training ground tomorrow, the young master must obediently cooperate with the teachings of the two masters and strive to learn the true skills. He must not fool around easily. My temper is as sulky as today. If you have anything, you must tell me, okay?"

The little boy thought about it. Originally, Xu Yaqin had already given a solution, and he really wanted to learn some skills, and now he was much more dependent on Xu Yaqin than before. It can be said that in the Hou family now, except for his father, Xu Yaqin is the person he trusts the most.

Of course, compared to these, in the eyes of this little guy, the story told by Xu Yaqin was more attractive. He really wanted to finish listening to this little story that he had never heard before.

Of course Xu Yaqin knew how this little kid felt. It was the same as when she was watching a TV series in her previous life, and when she saw something exciting, an advertisement would suddenly pop up.

People can't help but be curious about the content behind. She is using this mentality of the young master to urge him to fulfill her request. This cannot be regarded as a threat, but can only be regarded as a small means to educate the young master.

"How about it, young master, have you thought about it? Can you fulfill my request?" Xu Yaqin looked at the little guy's hesitant expression and already had a [-]% to [-]% chance of winning.

As she expected, the little guy hesitated for a while, then slowly raised his head, nodded heavily and said, "Okay, promise... promise."

Xu Yaqin consciously stretched out her fingers
The little boy knew what she meant, so he stretched out his chubby short hand, hooked it with Xu Yaqin's fingers, and muttered:

"Hanging hooks must not be changed for 100 years!"

"What has changed is..." At this point, Shengze paused, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he shouted excitedly:
"It's changed to Lu Laohu, Lu Laohu!"

Xu Yaqin was speechless.

Okay...I still remember Lu Jingming's hatred. I wonder what the villain in the original work would think when he heard that he was called that by the three-year-old young master?
After pulling the hook and making the agreement, Xu Yaqin was not worried that the kid would go back on his word. After all, the agreement between children is the safest, and the young master will definitely abide by it, unlike adults who always go back on their words and don't keep their words.

After so many days of getting along with each other, Xu Yaqin really felt that being with children was more relaxed and enjoyable than being with adults.
