Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 431 This name sounds familiar [Thank you! Goodbye! I owe you more chapters]

The next day

Master Zhuang reviewed everyone's answers from yesterday in the classroom.

Although there is only one teacher, Mr. Zhuang, the six people in the school who need to take the exam are of different ages.

Just like Xu Zaijing and Qi Heng, the two are three years apart in age.

In modern times, the difference of three years is the difference between a junior high school student and a high school student.

Therefore, when Master Zhuang was commenting on the work, he did not blame the younger Qi Heng and Chang Feng harshly, but simply asked them to work harder.

Two more days passed,
It is already the end of the first lunar month.

Xu Zaijing returned to Quyuan Street with his brother as usual.

After nodding to the old friends of the Marquis' Mansion who were setting up stalls along the way, he was about to ride into the gate of the Marquis' Mansion when the Xu family's doorman beside him bowed and said, "Sanlang, Silang, the eldest girl is back!"

Hearing this, Xu Zaijing and Zai Zhang looked at each other and smiled.

After getting off the horse, the two brothers did not bother to change their clothes, and walked quickly into Sun's courtyard.

Before the two entered the house, they heard voices coming from inside, mixed with the crying of a child.

Xu Zaijing followed Zai Zhang and ducked behind the curtain. He looked at Pingmei who was sitting next to Sun in the hall, smiled brightly and bowed, "Big sister!"

Pingmei smiled and nodded at Xu Zaijing. Just as she was about to say something,
"Uncle!"

Xu Xingdai hugged Xu Zaijing's knees and cried loudly with tears and snot.

"Uncle!"

Gu Shixing, who was howling without any rain, hugged Xu Zaijing's other leg.

Xu Zaijing lifted the two small children from his knees to his eyebrow level, and said with great concern:
"What's wrong with you two?"

"Uncle! Gu Shixing said that you love him the most and not me! This can't be true, right!"

Xu Zaijing glared at Gu Shixing and said, "Xing'er, it's fine for you to know this secret yourself, why are you telling him?"

Xu Xingdai was stunned for a moment and thought about what Xu Zaijing meant:

"Wow~~~~"

She cried even harder.

Seeing Xu Xingdai's expression, the Xu brothers, Xie, Hualan, Pingmei and others in the hall all laughed.

Sun, who was sitting at the top, did not smile. She stared at Xu Zaijing. It was a pity that she didn't have anything useful at hand, otherwise she would have thrown a few at Xu Zaijing.

"Xu Zaijing! You are an elder, how can you coax a child like this!"

Sun's tone softened instantly as she spoke. She reached out her hand to Xu Xingdai and coaxed him, "Come on, Dai, come to grandma."

With tearful eyes, Xu Xingdai looked at Sun, then looked at Xu Zaijing and shook his head, saying, "Grandma, I want to play Feifei with my uncle."

"Hahahaha~ Mother, I didn't expect that they wouldn't look for you!"

Pingmei covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed.

Sun nodded at Xu Xingdai angrily, then turned around and glared at Xu Zaijing, "It's all your fault! Don't play these games with him anymore, you're going to corrupt Dai!"

Xu Zaijing's innocent and dazed look made the relatives in the hall laugh.

On the other side of his arms, Gu Shixing's eyes rolled around: "Uncle, what is Feifei?"

Xu Xingda wiped his tears with his sleeves, and shouted with surprise in his eyes: "You don't even know what Feifei is, and you dare to say that your uncle loves you the most!"

As soon as these words came out,
The young Gu Shixing didn't know how to pretend, and a look of shame appeared on his face: "Cousin, if you tell me what Feifei is, I will admit that you are the one that my uncle loves the most!"

Xu Zaijing bent down and put his nephew and nephew on the ground, then walked to Zai Zhang who was holding Xu Xingzhong, and touched the little nephew Xingzhong in Zai Zhang's arms.

The wet nurse next to Mrs. Xie was holding Xu Zaijing's little niece who was a few months old.

The last character of Pingmei's name in this generation is "Mei", and the last character of the girl in the next generation is "Yi".

I have to say, being called by someone does give you some advantages.

The daughter of Zaiduan and Xie was named Xu Qingyi.

Xu Zaijing smiled as he looked at his little niece who was sleeping soundly in her cradle.

Finally, Xu Zaijing walked to Qingxia behind Pingmei and stretched out his hand towards Yanjie, who was growing milk teeth in Qingxia's arms.

Pingmei's eldest daughter is not shy about strangers.

Seeing Xu Zaijing extending his hand, Yan Jie'er snuggled into Qingxia's arms, but her eyes were still on Xu Zaijing. When Xu Zaijing called her again, the delicate and graceful Yan Jie'er stretched out her arms.

Xu Zaijing held the little girl in his arms as if she were a treasure, while Yan Jie'er curiously reached out and pinched Xu Zaijing's face.

Although Yan Jie'er was still young, her hands were quite strong. She pinched Xu Zaijing so hard that he grimaced: "Hiss, Yan Jie'er, let go!"

Hearing Xu Zaijing's voice, Yan Jie'er thought he was teasing her, so she laughed in Xu Zaijing's arms, and her little hands became more forceful.

Seeing Xu Zaijing's expression, the others in the hall laughed again.

After some laughter,

Sister Yan returned to Qingxia's arms.
When Xu Zaijing was sent back, Yan Jie'er seemed not to have pinched him enough and kept shouting "Ahhh" at Xu Zaijing.

When Xu Zaijing sat down and was about to pick up the teacup to drink a sip of hot drink, Pingmei tried hard to suppress her smile: "Xiaowu, you have been good friends with Ye Ge'er since you were young. Do you know who is the girl he likes?"

Xu Zaijing's hand stopped in mid-air and he looked at Pingmei in surprise: "Sister, Erlang has someone he likes? Who is it?"

Ping Mei looked at Xu Zaijing's eyes and saw that they didn't seem fake. She shook her head in disappointment and said, "I know why I asked you?!"

"It was two days ago when Madam Wu went to the Gu family and said that the Fuguogong Dou family was interested in a marriage, and then Ye'er blurted out that he had a favorite girl! But my mother-in-law and I couldn't get any information, and they just said that they were a family of equal status."

Xu Zaijing nodded and smiled, "Big sister, since they are a family of equal status, they are not prostitutes or actors of the lowest class. Seeing Erlang's lack of anxiety, it is probably because the girl he likes is not yet of marriageable age."

"When the time comes, you and Mrs. Bai will find an opportunity to tell Erlang about the marriage proposals of several girls. If the right person is among them, Erlang will jump out and ask about it himself."

Pingmei's eyes lit up: "Xiaowu, you still have a solution."

In the second half of the first lunar month, school is over.
Sheng Family Academy Courtyard,

A chorus of "Thank you for your teachings" was heard.

Half a minute later, everyone, still wearing thick winter clothes, came out of the school with their maids and servants.

Rulan, who was walking in front of Qi Heng, was squeezing next to Minglan and whispering something to her. Words such as "take care of your hair", "how to take care of your skin", and "white and tender" could be vaguely heard.

Qi Heng looked at Rulan who was touching Minglan's fair and tender cheek, and the corners of his handsome face unconsciously rose.

Didn't laugh for long.

Gu Tingye's voice came from behind Qi Heng: "Wu Lang, when my sister-in-law was at Xu's house, did she like to talk about the affairs of the various families in Bianjing?"

When Qi Heng heard this, he turned around and stood aside waiting for Gu Tingye and Xu Zaijing to come over, and then walked out of the yard together.

"What else do the women in the boudoir and inner courtyard talk about if not gossip about family matters?" Xu Zaijing asked Gu Tingye with a smile.

Gu Tingye pondered for a while and said, "Wulang is right, but recently my mother and sister-in-law have been telling me which girl in Beijing is getting married. It seems like they are talking to me!"

Xu Zaijing glanced at Gu Tingye, patted his shoulder and said, "There are so many high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital, I can't finish talking about them every day, you are overthinking it!"

Gu Tingye said uncertainly: "That's true. But I heard that what mother and others said is a good match for my family."

"Ji Lang, you are listening seriously."

After Xu Zaijing finished speaking, Gu Tingye pursed his lips somewhat unnaturally.

Qi Heng, who was following him, saw that there was one less person around Xu Zaijing, and asked casually, "By the way, Jing'er, why didn't I see Qingyun today?"

Gu Tingye also looked over curiously.

Xu Zaijing smiled slightly: "I'm waiting for my wife to give birth at home!"

Hearing this,

The servants behind them all looked at each other.

Among them, the smile on the face of Qi Heng's servant Buwei was particularly bright.

Gu Tingye patted his forehead and said, "Yes, Wulang, when you went to the northwest, Qingyun's wife was already pregnant."

The crowd rode out of Jiying Lane on horseback.
Before the roads parted,

Gu Tingye said on horseback: "Wu Lang, tell us tomorrow how Qingyun's child is doing. I want to share in the joy then."

Xu Zaijing responded with a smile.

Xu Zaijing had not yet finished school.

Quyuan Street,
Yong Yi Hou Mansion,

At the second gate,
Qingcao had a bundle on her arm and was handing the departure card in her hand to the housekeeper at the door.

"Miss Qingcao, check everything, please"

"Sister Qingcao!"

A woman shouted from the inner courtyard.

Qingcao looked back and bowed with a smile: "Sister Cuichan, you called me?"

Cuichan took a few deep breaths and handed over the small bundle in her hand, saying, "Sister Qingcao, this is a little gift from the sisters in our second courtyard!"

Qingcao took the bundle with a smile and said, "Then I will thank all the sisters on behalf of Brother Qingyun and Sister-in-law Huaqing."

Cuichan smiled and nodded repeatedly.

The housekeeper at the door checked the bag again and then let him pass.

In the small courtyard near the Marquis's Mansion,
From time to time, there were cries of pain from women.
Shu Bo looked at the man pacing anxiously in front of the door and said, "Don't worry, Qingyun boy. With a female doctor like Ren Yi Niang inside, your wife will definitely be fine."

Qingyun looked back at his mother-in-law, brother-in-law and Shu Bo's family of three, and forced a smile.

"But it's been so long. It didn't take so long to give birth to our son." Qingyun's mother-in-law said while holding her son.

"You have one in your belly and the girl has two in her belly, how can they be the same?"

"Ms. Qingcao from the Hou Mansion is here."

The old woman at the gate of the courtyard shouted loudly.

Qingcao carried two bundles and bowed to everyone in the yard, then said, "Brother Qingyun, this is the best donkey-hide gelatin that the young master asked the Pan family to find. It was delivered to the mansion today, so I brought it here."

As he spoke, Qingcao handed the first bag to Qingyun.

"This bundle contains the gifts from the maids in the Second House."

Qingyun took over two packages:

"Madam has prepared a lot of things for my house, why are you still..."

"Sister Qingcao, I will go and thank you and the others when you come back."

Qingcao smiled, looked at the room that was being used as a delivery room with some worry, then clasped her hands together and began to pray.

Xu Zaijing came back from Qingyun Courtyard and went straight to the wooden house next to the racecourse.

'dong dong'

There was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

A hoarse voice came.

Xu Zaijing pushed the door open and walked into the room. Looking at Yin Bo who was sitting at the table drinking from a gourd, he smiled and said, "Master, you have finally got what you wished for! Qingyun has two children, a boy and a girl, which together form a good word."

Xu Zaijing walked to the table and sat down. He raised the wine bowl on the table and asked for a drink while asking, "Have you thought of a name for the child?"

Yin Bo nodded, and with a little moisture in his one eye, he filled the wine bowl in Xu Zaijing's hand and said, "I have thought of several names for the boy and girl, and I think the name for the girl is very good."

Xu Zaijing raised his bowl and said with a smile: "Disciple is all ears."

After saying that, he brought the wine bowl to his mouth.

"What do you think of the name Yin Susu?"

"Pfft~~"
