The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 470 Extra Story: The Last Happiness
Ever since Zhao Jing and Xu Si'an got married, Mrs. Xu has been thinking about going back to her hometown to worship her ancestors.Later, because Zhao Jing became pregnant, this matter has been delayed.Then a series of things happened again. After a year and a half passed, I never found time to go back to my hometown.

Now that the little emperor's wedding has just passed, Mrs. Xu can't stay idle. It's the beginning of November. If I go back to Yanzhou at this time, where else can I spend the new year? It's best to take advantage of the new year to worship the ancestors However.

Xu Si'an knew what Mrs. Xu was thinking early in the morning, and the whole house has made arrangements. He also sent people to Yanzhou's hometown to renovate the ancestral hall, and then renovated a house that the old Hou built there. Ready to live there when I go back.

A group of people walked slowly on the road for more than half a month, and finally arrived in Yanzhou.Fortunately, the weather along the way was very good. Although it was the twelfth lunar month, Xu Si'an arranged everything properly, and no one made Mrs. Xu and the children suffer in the slightest.

Xu Jiarui and Xu Jianing, the twins, are also much more well-behaved than usual. Although they are sitting in the carriage during the day, they are not as active as usual at home. Bai probably has something to do with the rickety carriage. Sister Ning feels sleepy when she gets in the carriage during the day , It didn't last long, and the eyelids drooped.Although Xu Jiarui was better, he didn't dare to make mistakes. Sometimes his black-faced father would get in the carriage and take a look. It's rare that he is only so young, so he has to learn to read his words.

Xu Si'an usually rode a horse, but the weather suddenly turned cold these two days, Zhao Jing naturally couldn't bear him to be outside in the wind and sun, so she called him to get on the carriage.What's more, this group of people already has quite a few nursing homes to protect them. It doesn't matter if he enjoys it as a master. He insists on sharing weal and woe with his subordinates.

With his father present, Kid Rui didn't dare to do anything wrong, and obediently sat in the nurse's arms and gnawed his fingers.Xu Si'an glanced at Xu Jiarui, who was really serious about pointing fingers, frowned and said, "Brother Rui, why hasn't he got rid of his habit of nibbling his fingers? Last time, my mother said that it would be fine to put some pepper on her fingers, or try another day." ?”

Boy Rui felt a little uneasy when he saw his father's face. Although he couldn't understand what he was saying, why did he always have a cold feeling on his back?Before he had time to think about it, the nanny just touched his butt, and said with a smile: "Madam, my brother urinated, and his buttocks are wet, servant girl can change it for him in the carriage behind."

Because of Xu Si'an's presence, the nurse wouldn't dare to do anything wrong, she would naturally find another place to change her diapers.

After hearing this, Xu Si'an said, "It's okay, just change here. Do you have to stop the whole team for a diaper?"

Hearing what he said, Zhao Jing nodded and told the nanny to change the diaper directly.The carriage was usually spacious when Zhao Jing took the nanny and the children, but today with the addition of Xu Si'an, it became a bit crowded for some reason.

Besides, because of the cold weather, there is a foot stove in the corner. This foot stove has two functions, one is to keep warm, and the other is to dry the children's diapers.The nanny unbuttoned Xu Jiarui's diaper in this compartment, and a sour smell had already permeated the compartment.Mixed with the smell of charcoal fire, it really makes people feel refreshed.

Xu Si'an, who was accustomed to the fresh air outside, changed his face slightly.But... I have to hold back my own idea even when kneeling.

There was no hot water in the carriage, Zhao Jing had no choice but to take Brother Rui first, and the nanny wiped his butt with a clean cloth, Zhao Jing then threw the diaper that Brother Rui had replaced by the foot stove.The hot charcoal fire smoked through the copper wall, Xu Si'an felt like he was about to suffocate! ! !

"Cough, cough, cough!" Pretending to be calm, he cleared his throat, and hastily stretched out his hand to pull aside the curtain beside the carriage, and took a deep breath.Unexpectedly, this little move did not escape Zhao Jing's sight, Zhao Jing saw it and hurriedly said: "Cover the curtains quickly, it's too cold outside, if it blows Brother Rui, it will be bad."

Xu Si'an followed suit with a livid face, and after a while, only waiting for Zhao Jing and the nanny to put on Xu Jiarui's trousers, then opened the curtain again and let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing his appearance, Zhao Jing knew that he was suffering. At this time, the team happened to slow down, so Zhao Jing ordered the carriage to stop first, and asked the nanny to carry Xu Jiarui to the carriage behind.

It was only at this time that Xu Si'an let out a deep breath, and the carriage started to move forward slowly again. Seeing that there was no one in the carriage, he held Zhao Jing in his arms.

These days, they were on their way every day, and when they arrived at the station, they settled down separately. Sometimes there were not enough rooms, and the young couple couldn't sleep together. Xu Si'an couldn't bear it long ago.

Zhao Jing also knew how hard he had endured recently, so she didn't stop her movement, but the carriage was closely followed, if there was any movement, it would be really embarrassing.She held down his restless hands, opened her starry eyes slightly, looked at him and said, "When you settle down tonight, you can do whatever you want."

After a long time, the carriage finally calmed down again, and the weather outside suddenly improved, and the sun was shining brightly.Xu Si'an's complexion was very good at this time, and he opened the curtain slightly, slowly dispersing the beautiful spring scenery full of cars... Fortunately, thanks to Brother Rui's diapers, maybe what happened to them just now was not noticed , It's just... the seeds planted in Zhao Jing's belly will eventually take root and sprout.

After worshiping the ancestors in Yanzhou, Zhao Jing followed Xu Si'an all the way south and came to Qixia Temple, a centuries-old temple.The ginkgo tree at the entrance of the temple is only full of dead branches.After knowing the reason for their visit, the young monks folded their hands together and said: "Two benefactors, which Master Lie Kong you are talking about, went away half a year ago, and I'm afraid he won't come back in the next few years."

Zhao Jing asked: "Have you gone to Yunyou? Do you know where Yunyou went?"

"This, I don't know about this, wandering is also a kind of practice, the shortest is a year and a half, and the longest is three to fifty years, it depends on the master's practice."
