The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 202
Seven-year-old Zhao Mu and four-year-old Zhao Hong ran into the main room together. Ning Lanrong was teaching her daughter to read and write. Hearing the movement, he raised his head, frowned slightly, and scolded the two little naughty boys: "How many times have I taught you?" Don't run around in a panic, next time I will tell your fathers like this!"

"Daddy spanks you!" three-year-old Zhao Xiang sat kneeling beside the kang table, gloating.

Zhao Mu secretly poked the third brother, and Zhao Hong immediately complained aggrievedly: "Brother hit us, mother, tell him!"

Ning Lanrong waved to him, and when her son came over, she gently touched his little head: "Did you get into trouble again?"

The eldest son was very sensible when he was born. The only thing that worried her for so many years was that the eldest son and her husband had too much temper. He refused to give in to the eldest son, and promised well, but turned around and deliberately bullied the eldest son.

Zhao Hong curled his lips: "I want to play with big brother's bow, but he is stingy and refuses to give it to me."

"Your elder brother was afraid that you would get hurt accidentally. He treats you well, and you came to sue secretly. You are neither a good brother for your brother, nor a good son for your mother." Ning Lanrong pretended to be angry.

"Not a good brother either!" Zhao Xiang echoed like a grown-up.

Ning Lanrong smiled and glared at her daughter: "You are the only one who can talk."

Zhao Xiang grinned. From the corner of her eye, she saw a person walking in the door. She stood up happily and ran towards the edge of the Kang: "Brother!"

Zhao Chen caught his younger sister steadily, and seeing that the two younger brothers were obediently silent, he asked his younger sister to get the copybook, and took the opportunity to explain to his mother what happened, being intimate and natural.Ning Lanrong smiled and praised him for a good job, and punished the two younger ones to write ten sheets of big characters and hand them in tomorrow.

Zhao Mu and Zhao Hong walked away dejectedly.

Zhao Chenduo stayed with his mother and sister for a while before leaving.

In the evening Zhao Yunting came back from the yamen, and as soon as he entered, he saw his eldest son waiting for him in the yard, with a sullen face, as if asking for a crime.Zhao Yunting pretended not to understand, and was about to go to the house to change clothes first, Zhao Chen frowned and stood in front of the door, raised his head and asked him: "Have you finished your errand to Dengzhou? I will go there by myself if I delay any longer!"

Zhao Yunting deliberately bent down to look at him: "I'm not afraid that your mother is in a hurry, you can just go. The more you live, the more impatient you become. Ah Ju is only seven years old now, so there is nothing to worry about."

Zhao Chen was so angry that his chest heaved, and he stared at him as if he was looking at an enemy.

Zhao Yunting couldn't bear it anymore, and took out the imperial decree from his chest to him: "Come down, let's go to Dengzhou the day after tomorrow."

Zhao Chen turned around and left.

Zhao Yunting was ordered to go to Dengzhou on business, because he was going to go for three months, and he couldn't bear to part with his wife and children, so he brought Ning Lan Rongniang and the others with him, and led them to the house he bought here, a backyard in his spare time A secluded courtyard surrounded by sycamore trees.

In the evening of this day, Zhao Yunting led Zhao Chen back from hunting outside, and the father and son went to find Ning Lanrong together.

"Did you get something good?" Seeing that both of them were safe and sound, Ning Lanrong was relieved.

Zhao Yunting talked about a few interesting things in the mountains, and then he was silent for a moment before continuing: "Lan Rong, I met an expert in the mountains, I want Cheng Yuan to stay here to study martial arts, and then return to the capital after learning. "

Ning Lanrong's face suddenly changed: "What kind of expert? Why didn't you invite him back as a guest?"

Zhao Chen continued: "Mr. Gao lives in seclusion in the mountains, and my father and I ran into him by mistake. Mother, Mr. Gao is both civil and military. I begged my father to let me stay and apprentice. After you left, my son went over. Mother, don't worry about your son, every year in the twelfth lunar month, your son will come back to Beijing to see you."

Ning Lanrong hugged the eldest son in her arms, and insisted on Zhao Yunting making it clear that she would be separated for a long time suddenly, how could she be willing?

Zhao Chen leaned quietly in his mother's arms.

He was also reluctant to part with his mother. Fortunately, his mother lived a very happy life. With his father taking good care of him and his younger brothers and sisters supporting him, he was very relieved to stay.It's a bit unfilial to say, but when he came back with the memories of his previous life, he just wanted to stay by his wife's side all the time, grow up with her, firmly occupy her heart since he was a child, and never give Meng Zhongjing a chance.

No matter how reluctant Ning Lanrong was, she couldn't stand that Zhao Yunting and his son had made perfect arrangements for this reason. Although Ning Lanrong felt uncomfortable, she also knew how to choose the best one. For the sake of her son's future, she could only listen to the father and son. Decide.

Because he came here on time, Zhao Yunting couldn't stay in Tongwan for a long time, and soon left with his wife and three children. Naturally, there was some reluctance when parting.On the day they left, a pair of Orion mentors and apprentices moved in to the village where Lin Xian's family lived, and they hired people to break ground and build a house on the open space behind the street where Lin's family lived.

Building a house is a big deal in the village, and it's at the back door of his house. Four-year-old Lin Zhu always likes to run over to watch the excitement, and put the small bench under the wall so that the sun won't shine.

Ah Ju wanted to take care of her younger sister, so she sat with her and taught her how to read with the Three Character Classic.

"Do you know all the words on it?"

A male voice suddenly came from the opposite side, and the two sisters looked up together, and saw a boy walking over, dressed in coarse clothes, who was the young apprentice of the newly moved Chen Orion.

Ah Ju nodded, because she was not familiar with Zhao Chen, she didn't say much, and continued to teach her younger sister.

"I don't believe you know all of them." Zhao Chen snatched the book away, leaned against the wall next to Aju and turned two pages, when Aju stood up angrily and was about to grab the book, Zhao Chen suddenly lifted the book Gao, looked at her with a smile: "I'll test your six characters, and if you know them all, I'll return the book to you."

"That's my book, give it to me!" Ah Ju didn't want to talk to him at all. There were too many naughty boys in the village, and there was another one unexpectedly.

Seeing that her sister was being bullied, Lin Zhu opened her mouth and shouted, "Daddy, Zhao Chen took my eldest sister's book away!"

At this time, there was no work in the field, so Lin Xian couldn't stay idle, so he helped build the house at the Chen family. When he heard the little daughter's cry, he looked back, smiled, and called Chen Liehu: "Children are playing around, don't worry about it." Never mind, that kid Zhao Chen is sensible, so he won't really bully Ah Ju and his sisters."

Chen Liehu smiled apologetically: "The boy is naughty and has caused trouble for your family. I will teach him a lesson later."

Dad didn't help, so Lin Zhu ran to the front yard angrily to ask his mother for help.

Zhao Chen shook the book at the sullen little girl beside him, "You girls are the most boring, you have to complain to your parents about every little thing, don't you want to go too?"

Ah Ju ignored him, seeing the book flashing in front of her eyes, she suddenly reached out to snatch it.

Zhao Chen has been staring at her, when Ah Ju stretched out his hand, he raised the book again, and discussed with her in a low voice: "Just take the test of six characters, and I will return it to you immediately if you say it." After a few pages, put the book in front of Ah Ju, "What does this word read?"

Ah Ju grabbed the book and wanted to snatch it back, but Zhao Chen held on tightly, Aju was worried that the book would be damaged, so he had to read out in a fit of anger, "Ah."

"Do you really know each other?" Zhao Chen continued the test with a look of surprise.

Ah Ju jumped out word by word, and refused to say more words, and quickly finished reading six words, "Give it to me!"

Zhao Chen looked at her with a smile: "You read the six words you just said together, and I'll give it to you."

Ah Ju recalled those six words involuntarily, and after thinking about it, she became really angry and scolded him with a blushing face: "You, you are making fun of people!"

Liu's voice came from the backyard of the Lin family. Zhao Chen handed the book to Ah Ju while stroking her head, and whispered to her: "Ah Ju, you said you liked me just now, I remembered, Don't worry, I will marry you as my daughter-in-law when I grow up!"

After speaking, he ran away.

Ah Ju's face flushed red with anger, she gritted her teeth at his back, and made up her mind to never talk to this person again.

But she gradually found that as long as she took her younger sister out to play, Zhao Chen would definitely follow her. It was okay for her to talk to girls from the same village, but if she talked to other boys, Zhao Chen would stand in front of her. None of the boys in Lizheng's family was as domineering as him, and he was the tallest and most capable of fighting. All the boys in the village were afraid of him, and gradually no one dared to talk to her. Her sisters of the same age even said She is Zhao Chen's young daughter-in-law...

Aju simply didn't go out and stayed at home to read.

But this doesn't work, Zhao Chen will find all kinds of excuses to come to her house, either borrow scissors to use, or bring some prey over, parents don't know what their children are playing around, they will only praise Zhao Chen for being sensible, even the younger sister Bought by a pair of white rabbits sent by Zhao Chen, he refused to speak ill of him in front of his parents.Thinking of Zhao Chen triumphantly winking at her, Ah Ju felt very depressed.

Before you know it, winter is here.

One day, the parents went to the town to go to the market, Ah Ju was at home to take care of the younger sister, and the two sisters were playing with the rope on the kang, when suddenly the door curtain was lifted.

"You climbed over the wall of our house again!" Ah Ju cursed with staring eyes.

"Who told you not to open the door for me?" Zhao Chen said in a tone that it was her fault.

The two stared at each other, Lin Zhu sat on the kang obediently and did not say a word.

Ah Ju couldn't stare at Zhao Chen every time, she was so angry that she looked away, anyway, he left after a while.

Zhao Chen didn't come here to make her angry, he asked Lin Zhu, "I'm going to the capital, what does Ah Zhu want? Big Brother will bring it for you."

Lin Zhu climbed up to the edge of the kang excitedly: "Brother Zhao is going to the capital? Are there any good things in the capital? I want delicious food, and I also want..."

"You are not allowed to ask him for things!" Ah Ju interrupted her sister unhappily.

"Don't listen to her, Ah Zhu continues." Even though he was talking to Lin Zhu, Zhao Chen never took his eyes off the little girl sitting inside.

Lin Zhu wasn't really afraid of the elder sister, so he told me all about the fan, floral cloth, etc. that he wanted.

Zhao Chen memorized it all, and when Lin Zhu finally finished speaking, he asked Ah Ju kindly: "What about you? Don't be embarrassed, what is the relationship between us, just say it, and I will buy it for you."

Lin Zhu couldn't understand this, but Ah Ju knew that he couldn't understand anymore, knowing that he couldn't beat Zhao Chen, so he simply turned his head away from him.

Zhao Chen took the peanut kernels in his hand and threw her at her: "Since you don't tell me, then I'll buy any for you. You just wait at home obediently. I'll be back in early February."

"Let's go!" Ah Ju wished that he would never come back.

It's just that Zhao Chen really left, and when no one around her teased her for several days in a row, Ah Ju's initial happiness gradually turned into disappointment for some reason, and she always felt that something was missing.She would think about how far the capital is from here, when Zhao Chen would arrive in the capital, what he would bring her, and when he would come back...

In a blink of an eye, it is another year of cold spring.

Mrs. Liu looked at her daughter who was sitting on the top of the kang, who looked like she was reading a book but was actually absent-minded, and joked with a smile: "I want to take a long journey again? Don't worry, I usually come back in early February, and this year is almost here."

Lin Zhu joined in the fun: "That's right, when you get married in June, you can go to the capital with your brother-in-law to watch the excitement."

Ah Ju blushed, and was about to explain that she was just reading a book, when suddenly the sound of horseshoes came from the street outside.

Her heart suddenly lifted.

After listening carefully, Mrs. Liu was sure that the voice came from her own side. She was so happy that she went down to the ground to open the door for her son-in-law, and Lin Zhulin Chongjiu followed her excitedly.

Ah Ju just got off the ground and waited nervously in the room.

Zhao Chen came back with a cart full of presents. The big and small bags helped Liu Shi move into the house. Back door back home.

Ah Ju was getting more and more nervous every day, she knew that Zhao Chen was not honest, he was just waiting for the opportunity to bully her once.

This day, Mrs. Liu and Lin Xian went shopping in the town, and Lin Zhu and Lin Chongjiu followed.

Ah Ju was extremely nervous, looking forward to Zhao Chen coming to let her have a good look, but also afraid that he would hug her and kiss her when he came, when he was in a dilemma, he heard someone knocking on the door.

From childhood to adulthood, he could always sneak into her house like a thief.

Ah Ju took one last look in the mirror to make sure that her hair was not messed up, so she went there nervously.

When she opened the door, her fiancé, a 17-year-old boy, was standing outside. He was tall and handsome, and just one glance made her blush.

"Miss me?" Zhao Chen closed the door with his backhand, staring at his fiancée who had grown into a big girl.

How could Ah Ju answer such words, she sat down at the table first, and lowered her head to warn him: "Just talk and go, don't delay too long."

"Okay, then let's go to the house and talk." Zhao Chen walked over step by step, and when Ah Ju got up and wanted to escape, he hugged him horizontally...
