Chapter 431

Jingli is not far from Lishan Mountain. In the evening, the group arrived at the foot of Lishan Mountain.

Along the way, the four little buns slept in the nurse's arms very well, while the three older ones, Lingxi, Changsheng and Amu sat in the carriage, looking out curiously through the half-opened window, chatting while watching. talking about something.

Even Chang Sheng no longer has an old-fashioned and serious face, his immature face is full of joy, and he argues with his sisters from time to time.

Xiao Nan didn't share the ox cart with the eldest princess, it was a bit inappropriate for her to choose to go on the road with her natal family, if she behaved like a family with her natal family, it would be easy to cause people to gossip.

Besides, she brought so many children with her on this trip, she was not at ease when she was separated, and it was too crowded to sit with the mother and sister-in-law. In the end, Xiao Nan took the child and got on his own car frame.

Cui Youbo, on the other hand, rode side by side with several uncles, wives and brothers, and closely followed Prince Xiao.

Along the way, Cui Youbo either shared some anecdotes about officialdom with Xiao Bo and Xiao Xie, or told some interesting stories about quadruplets with Xiao Zhenxiao who was sitting in his elder brother's arms.

Listening to their lively talk, Concubine Xiao, who was walking in front, would also interject a few sentences from time to time, commenting on his son-in-law's point of view by the way.

Cui Youbo humbly accepts his father-in-law's seemingly random points. It's not because he's pretending, but after several years of experience, he gradually understands that only those who are really good for him will tell him these things, like the old man and the man. And the middle-aged handsome man in front of him.

Back then, people all over the capital praised him as 'Yulang', praised him for being rich, handsome, and outstanding in writing, and he was quite elegant in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

But in fact, is he really that good?
Cui Youbo is no longer a simple young man, he is taken seriously when others praise him, now what he needs more is to calm down and study hard, not only to study the works of the sages, to learn the miscellaneous notes of the ancestors of the Cui family, but also to learn how to behave from the elders way.

So, despite the fact that the distance from the capital to Lishan is not long, Cui Youbo still learned a lot from Prince Xiao.

Seeing Cui Youbo accepting education with such an open mind, Concubine Xiao was also very satisfied.He has seen all the changes in his son-in-law in the past few years. For such a son-in-law who knows how to make progress and works hard, he is happy to mention something and is willing to help him plan.

However, Concubine Xiao still habitually doesn't give Cui Youbo any good looks. This bastard has caused his family Qiao Mu to suffer so much. If he doesn't teach him a lesson, he is already looking at his daughter and grandson's face, and he wants to get his praise ,dream!
When Lishan was approaching, Concubine Xiao made a summary of his speech, and severely warned Uncle Cui and his sons (the emphasis was on Cui), that they should not indulge themselves after they went to another industry. Those who should go to work should go to work, and those who are resting should study at home obediently. , Stay with your family, and don't fool around with some dudes.

Cui Youbo smiled wryly, he didn't know that his father-in-law was beating him, but he didn't blame his father-in-law for being troublesome, but instead thanked him for his sincere kindness to him.

After the family went to Lishan Mountain and went to his own business, Uncle Cui saw the brand-new house and was more grateful to his father-in-law and mother-in-law for taking care of them.

The Tangquan villa with three entrances and three exits in front of it is located on a small hill in the Lishan Mountains, not far from Tangquan Palace, and the eldest princess's villa is located a dozen miles ahead.

Bieye is built on the mountain, and the whole is a wooden structure building, which is ingeniously integrated with the surrounding environment.

Xiao Nan got out of the car, took a child by the hand, and walked slowly towards the door.

The area of ​​the villa is small, but there are many necessary configurations. The courtyard design is delicate and natural, and the rockery, waterside pavilions and verandas are all set up just right.

After entering the gate and passing the atrium, there is the main courtyard. There are five main rooms and three wing rooms on the left and right.

Passing through the main courtyard is the backyard, which is backed by the broken wall of the mountain, and under the broken wall is the hot spring pool.

The pool is not very big, it is in the shape of a crescent moon, just surrounding the broken wall.When the craftsmen were constructing, they deliberately piled up a rockery in the concave part of the crescent moon. On the rockery, a few sections of green bamboos were cut through, one end stretched out to the broken wall, and the other end protruded above the hot spring pool.

The hot spring water on the mountain is brought in through such green bamboos with a thick cup mouth, and the slightly steamy spring water flows into the hot spring pool, and the water drops splash, which has a special charm.

And the spring in the hot spring pool is also bubbling with hot springs. The temperature of this hot spring is not very high, about [-] degrees.

It's early summer now, and the temperature in the mountains is about [-] degrees lower than that in the capital, so the heat from the hot springs is not obvious.

In addition to the hot spring, there are several houses in the backyard, all of which are built against broken walls. In this way, the veranda, houses and a broken wall just wrap the entire garden.

Xiao Nan turned around the front and rear three courtyards, and then began to arrange the residence: she and Cui Youbo lived in the main courtyard, the quadruplets and nurses lived in the inner part of the main bedroom, Lingxi and Changsheng lived in the east chamber, Yuye He and Ah Mu live in the West Wing.

As for the guest house in the atrium, two rooms were set aside as outer study rooms for Cui Youbo to read, work and receive guests.

Regarding Xiao Nan's arrangement, everyone has no objection except Changsheng. Even Changsheng was forcibly suppressed by Xiao Nan on the grounds of 'small yard' and 'obedient'. After the struggle was fruitless, the little guy pouted and went to the East Chamber Live with sister.

In fact, it can’t be said that they live together. There are three rooms in the East Wing. Two people can use one room as a public living room.

However, the little guy regained his energy very quickly, because A Niang said that after the evening meal, she took him and my sister to soak in the hot spring.Hee hee, he had heard from his little uncle a long time ago that soaking in the hot spring was very comfortable, and that the water was so magical that people could float up by themselves while lying in it.

Changsheng has never learned to swim, but he also has common sense, knowing that in deep water, if he doesn't know how to swim, he is very likely to sink to the bottom.Therefore, the nurse around him often told him not to play by the water.

Ever since Xiao Zhi talked about this magical hot spring, the little guy has been very curious. This time, he finally has the opportunity to try it himself. It's great!
After dinner, Xiao Nan discussed some things with Cui Youbo, and then Cui Youbo went to Cui's hot spring villa. Cui Ze and others will arrive tomorrow, so he went to check the cleaning situation of the house in advance.

And Xiao Nan played with the children in Shuanglu for a while, and then watched the nurses feeding the quadruplets, and the four fed up little ones fell asleep and were carried back to the inner room to sleep.

Seeing that it was almost time, Xiao Nan took the three little buns to the hot spring in the backyard.

Because the hot spring pool is open-air, Xiao Nan ordered people to put up curtains around the hot spring for safety reasons.She took three children and several maids into the tent, put on a special tube top and shorts, and entered the pool together.

The three children had never played in the water before, so they were somewhat timid to enter the pool for the first time. They stretched out their little feet to touch the water surface, and looked at the steps in the pool, not daring to take the first step.

Seeing Xiao Nan, she couldn't help smiling, she stood in the pool, bent down and hugged Lingxi, let her little feet touch the steps, and said softly: "Look, the pool is not deep, here There are also steps, if you are afraid, you can sit on the steps first."

Lingxi felt a wave of warm water surging around her little feet, just like taking a bath every day. Thinking of this, she lost her timidity and stood firmly on the steps.

In fact, she didn't need to be afraid at all. Although Xiao Nan was the only adult in the pool, there were seven or eight servant girls standing by the pool, and three or four maidservants by the curtain. When she feels scared, someone will fish her out immediately.

Changsheng is a boy, so he is more courageous, and he has long been eager to try the hot spring. Now seeing his sister standing firmly, he also walked into the pool.

The nurse by the pool hurriedly stretched out her hands in shock, carefully guarding Changsheng's sides.

Changsheng supported the bluestone by the pool with one hand, and slowly sank his small body into the pool. Finally, he sat directly on the first step, his little feet stepped on the second step, and his little head just came out of the water.

"Ah, you come too, it's very comfortable."

After Changsheng sat down, he kicked a few times, feeling that there was indeed a buoyancy under his body, and he just thought it was fun.Since there were good things, he wanted to share them with his sisters, so he warmly greeted Ah Mu who was still on the shore and dared not move.

Ah Mo looked back at Yu Ye, Yu Ye hurriedly nodded, motioning for her to follow her brother.

Then Ah Mu carefully imitated Changsheng's appearance and entered the hot spring pool, and finally sat beside Changsheng.

At this time, Lingxi sat on the steps smoothly, and there was a seat between her and her two siblings, which was Xiao Nan's seat.

As I said just now, this hot spring pool is in the shape of a crescent moon, where Xiao Nan's mother and son are located at one end of the crescent moon, Xiao Nan sits on the top of the crescent moon, and the three children surround her on the left and right.

After sitting down, Xiao Nan winked at Yuzan.

Yuzan hurriedly brought a tray with handles on both sides. On the tray were several plates of cut fruits and a few cups of apple cider vinegar. She came to the pool and carefully placed the tray on the water to make sure that the tray would not sink. Finally, he slowly released his hands from the handle.

"Wow? Mommy, this tray won't sink?" Lingxi looked curiously at the tray floating in front of her.

Xiao Nan nodded with a smile, "Yes, this is one of the magical effects of hot spring water. If the water in this pool is full, let alone this small tray, even the few of you can float."

While talking, Xiao Nan handed the diluted apple cider vinegar to several children.When Wang Youan was asked to brew fruit wine that day, she suddenly thought of apple cider vinegar, so she asked the master of the winery to try it, but she did not expect it to be brewed.

Now that the weather is getting hotter, the children's appetites are not very good. Give them some diluted apple cider vinegar, which can help digestion and whet the appetite.

Changsheng finished the fruit vinegar in small sips, and then said excitedly: "Mother, let someone fill up the pool later, I, I want to learn to swim." In fact, he wanted to try whether he could float or not. Up, though, worried that he would look naive for saying that.

Ah Mu is very well-behaved, but she nodded after hearing what her brother said.

Seeing that the children were happy, Xiao Nan couldn't bear to refuse, and said with a smile: "Okay, after you finish eating the fruit, Auntie will teach you how to swim."

Xiao Nan not only had people plug the hole for the flowing water, but also made people let the hot spring fish in.

"Ah, mother, there are fish, and they still bite me!"

"Aniang, it's so itchy, giggling, it's so fun!"

"I'm floating, Ma'am, look quickly!"

Joyful laughter came out of the curtain and dissipated in the quiet mountain forest.

In a villa not far away, there was a strong man lying in his hot spring pool for a nap. After hearing a faint laughter, he opened his eyes suddenly and murmured: "Princess Xiangcheng, I've been waiting for a long time!"
