Chapter 8 Dispute
Meng Yuxuan watched Aunt Lin leave, and when Aunt Lin returned to her yard, she knocked on Shangguan Huan's door.The latter's deep voice came from the room: "Come in."

Meng Yuxuan looked at the man sitting on the bed.He was holding a book in his hand, and Shangguan Xi with a pale face was sitting in his arms.Shangguan Xi frowned, listening to him explain the contents in detail.

"Concentrate." Shangguanxi saw Meng Yuxuan coming in, and looked at her with pitiful eyes.Seeing this, Shangguan Huan reprimanded unhappily.

Shangguan Xi quickly lowered his head, and followed Shangguan Huan to read the contents of the book.However, those obscure classical Chinese are too complicated for children who are only four or five years old.Shangguan Huan had no such cognition at all.No matter how hard Shangguanxi worked, he would watch him read on.Meng Yuxuan couldn't bear to watch anymore, and said what she had been holding back for a long time.

"He is still young. If you teach him like this, it will only make him tired of learning."

Shangguan Huan frowned, and said coldly: "You mean... I can't teach well? You don't think that knowing a few words is enough to teach me how to be a good teacher?"

Meng Yuxuan looked at Shangguanhuan in surprise.

It's the first time I've heard such a long string of words from him every day.But judging from his tone, it seems that he is not happy that she is meddling in her business?
"You don't think you can become a good teacher just by knowing a few words, right? Teaching needs to be done step by step, okay? He is only four years old, and at the age of four, he should learn what a four-year-old child should learn, instead of thinking about Lian Xiucai. A book that I can't even read." Meng Yuxuan returned his words to him, and looked provocatively at the man with a stinky face opposite him.

"Xi'er has a photographic memory. At the age of three, he was able to memorize the Thousand-Character Classic Disciple Guan verbatim, and he could also understand its meaning. For other children, these books are indeed complicated, but for him it is It's easy. He's my son, don't you know his ability better than me?" Shangguan Huan sneered and said, "You self-righteous woman! What you can't do doesn't mean others can't do it. Don't worry about it in the future His study. If you really want to stay in this house, you just need to prepare your three meals a day."

"Father, don't scold Aunt Xuan like that." Shangguanxi tugged on Shangguan Huan's sleeve and said in a crying voice.

Meng Yuxuan was speechless for a moment.Shangguanxi had such an ability, she really did not expect it.No wonder Shangguan Huan attached so much importance to his study.If it were her, she would also value such a genius son.However, if you pay attention to it, you should pay attention to it. She will not overthrow the seedlings, but will only feel sorry for his early wisdom and give him more time to rest.She would tell him that as long as he is normal, the child should look like a child.

"You only value his study, but you haven't asked if it's what he wants. How long has it been since he talked to you? I mean anything other than study. Also, how long has he not laughed, these Have you noticed?" Meng Yuxuan smiled coldly: "He is so young, what he needs is the care and love of his parents, not being forced to grow up."

"You mean, do you want to be his mother?" Shangguan Huan looked at Meng Yuxuan quietly, his eyes full of ridicule.

Meng Yuxuan's expression froze.Are you talking about this now?When did she say she wanted to be his 'mother'?Why is this man thinking so strangely?
She didn't say the words of refusal, but Shangguanxi's eyes full of expectation made her stop her words.She thought of the regrets in her previous life, and her plan to stay here temporarily before she was unable to protect herself, and blushed and said, "So what? Master Li sent me here to be your wife. If you don't want to, why?" Accept me? Now that you accept me, I am the hostess here and your wife. You haven’t been out for a long time, and you don’t know what the villagers call me? They all call me Xi’erniang. Anyway, my name It’s decided, you can’t let it go even if you want to.”

Shangguan Huan looked at the fighting cock-like woman in front of him with a complicated expression.She was declaring her hegemony, her attitude and tone were extremely bad, but he didn't want to refute what she said.

During this period of time, she boiled medicine for them every day, cooked for them, and tidied up the vegetable garden after taking care of them.In just a short time, this small place actually felt like home.He has lived here for many years and never took it seriously.In his view, it was just a place to stay, and sooner or later he would leave.However, now he actually finds it pleasing to the eye.

Apart from the troubles she caused at the beginning, this woman is actually quite nice.Her eyes are very pure, just like Xi'er, so clean that she wants to protect it.However, having such an outstanding appearance is not a good thing in this world where the jungle preys on the jungle.Such a girl would have to cause him trouble sooner or later!
"Father, can I call Aunt Xuan 'mother'? Anyway, that's what everyone calls her. I want to be called mother too." Shangguanxi looked at Shangguanhuan weakly and said.

Shangguan Huan touched Shangguan Xi's head.He didn't answer, but in Meng Yuxuan's eyes, this was the default.

"Mother, Xi'er finally has a mother." Shangguanxi changed his tearful eyes just now, and smiled happily.

Shangguan Huan looked at Shangguanxi guiltily.He saw Shangguan Xi throwing himself into Meng Yuxuan's arms and closing the book in his hand.

Meng Yuxuan was right in saying that this child hadn't smiled for a long time.Perhaps, he really needs a 'mother' who can lean in his arms and act like a baby.No matter how well his 'father' does, he will never be able to do what a 'mother' can do.

Meng Yuxuan felt strange, a little shy, and a little annoyed.She glanced at the man across the way, and his unchanging expression annoyed her.

Why is she the only one who is uneasy?Wasn't he a little moved that she was willing to be his 'daughter-in-law' as a beautiful woman?Even if she did something wrong before and caused him to be seriously injured like that, she is willing to stay and take care of their father and son. He won't still hold grudges in his heart, will he?If that's the case, it's too stingy!snort!
"Xi'er, tell your father when you're tired, don't worry about everything. If you don't tell him, how will he know? You have to tell him that you are human, not made of iron." Meng Yuxuan stroked Shangguanxi's small Face. "Look at how haggard this little face is. Wait a minute... Mother will cook you something delicious."

Being a 'mother' for the first time, Meng Yuxuan had a subtle change in her heart.This change is indescribable, but it is amazing.

Although Shangguanxi has no blood relationship with her, this child is lovable, and women are born with maternal instincts, so she also wants to treat him well from the bottom of her heart.

"Mother, your cooking is the best. Xi'er has gained weight recently!" Shangguan Xi said sweetly.

"This little mouth is so sweet. Could it be that it was wiped with honey?" Meng Yuxuan touched Shangguanxi's little face and said. "I'm going out to pick some hawthorns later, do you want to go together?"

"Okay!" Shangguanxi took Meng Yuxuan's hand and nodded repeatedly.However, remembering that Shangguan Huan still had a heavy task to entrust to him, Xiaolian immediately lowered his shoulders.He looked at Shangguan Huan sadly and said: "But Dad asked me to write a hundred characters. I'm afraid I don't have time to go out with my mother."

Both pairs of eyes looked at Shang Guanhuan at the same time.There was obviously no blood relationship, but the two pairs of eyes looked at Shangguan Huan with exactly the same eyes, and the latter curled up his lips surprisingly.

"Take a day off and write 150 characters tomorrow." Shangguan Huan threw the book in his hand on the bedside.

"Good (not good)." Shangguanxi and Meng Yuxuan said in unison.

Meng Yuxuan tapped Shangguanxi's forehead, and said angrily: "Stupid boy, what about 150 characters, do you think there are fifteen? Still agree, are you stupid?"

Shangguanxi touched the place where Meng Yuxuan hit, and his eyes smiled into crooked teeth.

"It's okay, mother. I used to be able to write 150 characters a day! [-] characters is not a lot, and I can write them soon."

Meng Yuxuan shook her head helplessly, and sighed softly: "Look, a good child is almost becoming a nerd. You are still young, and there are still many things in life that you should try. How can you be like a little adult? What about books? How do bees gather honey? What does chrysanthemum, plum blossom and pear blossom taste like? If you want to eat fish, how do you catch fish in the water? Do you know this? You only know how to read, how will you take care of yourself in the future? If you can’t even take care of yourself, how can you do other important things? Books are not omnipotent, and your body is not made of iron.”

"Am I very useless? Doesn't Mother like me?" Shangguanxi looked at Meng Yuxuan sadly.

Meng Yuxuan touched Shangguanxi's head, took his hand and walked towards the gate.She smiled and said: "Of course not. You are still young, and it is still too late to start studying. Your father said that you are a genius, and you can never forget. Those things that are simpler than books are not difficult for you at all, so don't worry about them." .”

"Really?" Shangguan Xi asked hesitantly.

"It's more real than pearls." Meng Yuxuan laughed.

"Aren't you going to pick hawthorns? Hurry up!" Shangguan Huan interrupted their conversation impatiently.

"Let's go now." Meng Yuxuan put on shoes and socks for Shangguanxi, pulled him out while talking and laughing, and when she reached the door, she turned around and said, "Suddenly remembered. I came in to tell you that tomorrow the village chief's little The grandson is holding a hundred-day banquet, and I would like to bring two catties of rice and pick a few green vegetables as a gift, what do you think?"

Shangguan Huan's eyes were flat: "It's up to you."

"Of course you have to follow the courtesy. What will others think if you don't? You have lived in the village for several years. Why is no one willing to get close to you except Aunt Lin's family? It can be seen that you are not very popular. If you want to stay here for a long time If you stay here, you have to have a relationship, right? Among other things, if Xi'er wants to go to school in the future, she has to ask the village chief to write a list!" Meng Yuxuan said.

"..." Shangguan Huan had a look of disdain in his originally calm eyes. "I said—whatever you want, you decide. Aren't you the hostess here? You still have to ask me about such a trivial matter, what do you want the hostess to do?"

Meng Yuxuan was made hot by Shangguan Huan's eyes.What a shame!There was such an oolong.

And he's to blame!Who told him not to say a few more words?With such a short sentence, do you really think everyone is a roundworm in his stomach?
