The Story of Dafujin Parenting in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 4
Just once when the second aunt came to the Erniang courtyard, she saw the seventh brother toddling and threw herself into the second aunt's arms, and called "Mother!" The lower body and the little fat man looked at each other, and asked in a trembling voice: "What did you call me?"

The little fat man looked at his second aunt: "Mother..." The little fat man's voice was loud.

"Hey!"

"Mom!!!" The little fat man thought he was playing a game with him, so he yelled louder. -
"Hey!!!"

"mother!!!"

"Hey!!!"……

After repeating this four or five times, Second Aunt burst into tears with excitement, and the corners of her mouth trembled and she couldn't speak.Embracing the little fat man excitedly, he suddenly picked up Xiao Qi and ran out of the courtyard.

The little fat man felt that the game was getting more and more fun, and happily hugged his second aunt's neck and giggled.

The second aunt flew all the way to the grandmother's Songhe courtyard, gasping for breath, but also reluctant to let go of Xiao Qi and give the maid to hug her.

After resting for a while, the servant girl caught up with the second aunt, and wanted to take the little fat man from the second aunt's arms, but the little fat man turned around and hugged the second aunt's neck, not hugging her, but hugged her tightly.

When the grandmother came out, I saw this scene. The second aunt laughed and cried, with tears and snot running down her nose. She couldn't help herself. The little fat man was muttering something in the second aunt's arms.

The second aunt immediately stopped crying, motioned the servant girl to come forward to wipe away her tears and snot, and choked up against Xiaoqi fatty, "Hey!"

After a moment of astonishment, the grandmother sat down and fell into deep thought.

For a moment, the room fell into a deathly silence.

Fatty Little Seven heard the choking voice of the second aunt, lightly patted the shoulder of the second aunt to comfort her, and "baji" gave the second aunt a loud kiss.

love dear.

The second aunt tightly held Xiaoqi fatty and did not let go.

Fatty Little Qi felt uncomfortable being confined, twisted his fat little body, and yelled "Mom!"

Only then did the second aunt come back to her senses, "Oh, my dear, I didn't hurt you." Fatty Xiaoqi shook his head, not knowing whether he understood or not, he lowered his head and played with his fingers.

Only then did the second aunt look up and see the pensive mother-in-law in the main seat, she was so embarrassed: "Emiang, I'm sorry, the daughter-in-law didn't notice that you came out." Thinking of saluting, she was worried about the little seven fat man in her arms.

Grandma waved her hand to signal that she didn't have to get up.

"Emiang, did you hear that just now? The child has been calling my mother. This child was sent by Changshengtian when he heard his wife's call. It is the heavenly Eqige who is protecting me." The second aunt looked at the grandmother expectantly." Look at how well-behaved and close this child is to his daughter-in-law, he threw himself into his daughter-in-law's arms when they met for the first time, and called her daughter-in-law, and she called her just now, mother-in-law, did you hear that?"

"He called me mother, called me many times, called me mother..."

The second aunt's excited words didn't match the words, and her words were incoherent.Only she knows the bitterness and hardships of the more than ten years of begging for a child, and even her direct daughter Gengen (meaning gentle and demure) is a little bit embarrassed among the sisters, which is a burden on the marriage.

Now after the draft is over, most of the talkers are looking for a successor, those who have children at home, or those who are greedy for money.

Fatty Little Seven's nanny and mother-in-law came together.

Aunt Bai supported Er Niang and was about to step into the gate of the courtyard. When she heard the conversation in the courtyard, she thought that the second master had gone to take office, and the adoptive would definitely follow the second master. And she was in the backyard of the elder master, basically nothing in her life. Opportunity to meet...

Thinking of this, Aunt Bai's face turned pale, and she fell down headlong.

Grandmother and Second Aunt in the yard heard the movement and signaled the servant girl to lift the curtain and go out to have a look.

Er Niang signaled the maid to help Aunt Bai back down and ask a doctor to take a look.I just stepped into my grandmother's Songhe Courtyard, and after some salutes, my second aunt also greeted my mother with a smile.Second Aunt's smile was bright and brilliant, as beautiful as a rainbow after rain.How long has it been since I saw my second sibling laughing from the bottom of my heart, Eniang said inwardly.

Er Niang signaled the nanny to come forward and hug Xiaoqi, "Second brother and sister have been hugging for so long, their hands are sore, and Xiao Qi weighs more than 20 catties. Press your hands and let the nanny hug you." But she was vigilant and opposed by the second aunt " It's okay, I, I can hug you." The second aunt stuttered a little.

Grandmother recounted what had just happened to Er Niang, and asked Er Niang for her opinion on adoptive Xiao Qi.

Er Niang saw the second aunt begging, the pain contained hope and reluctance, and she was still faintly vulnerable, so she murmured speechlessly.I also think of Aunt Bai's hard work and thoughtfulness over the past ten years. What people fear most is that they lose hope when they have hope, and they will despair.

After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Emiang, brother and sister. The daughter-in-law also knows that the second uncle is looking for an heir in the clan. I heard that he was not satisfied with the one he found before. Has there been any response?"

"Your brothers and heirs are in a difficult situation. Today's matter is the arrangement of Changshengtian. Xiaoqi didn't know how to speak before, right?" Grandma looked at Erniang, the abyss in her eyes couldn't see to the bottom.

Er Niang didn't dare to look at the second aunt, she turned her head away: "I can't hide this from you, this is the first time I have spoken today."

I knew it from the look on my grandmother's face.

The second aunt was delighted when she heard that, she stared at Fatty Little Seven, humming a famous Mongolian song, and gently shaking Fatty Seven.

The second aunt's gentle humming could only be heard in the yard, and after a while, Fatty Seven fell asleep with a little saliva, and the second aunt gently wiped it for him.

"Second brother and sister, let the nanny hold Xiaoqi and go to sleep."

"Well, Xiaoqi is tired from playing, so the nanny can stay in my yard."

Er Niang turned to look at her grandmother, her expression of astonishment persisted, but she also understood, she sighed, what a pity.

In this way, Xiao Qi was left in the grandmother's hospital.

Grandma also took a nap.Only the second wife sat silently on the stool in a daze, so that the old man didn't know when he came back, and the grandfather didn't return to his senses even after shouting several times.

"Second wife, the old master and the old lady are calling you." In the end, the big maid beside her pushed her to wake up.

"From the second family, don't you have something to say?" The grandmother gestured to the second aunt.

After the second aunt knelt down to kowtow to her grandparents, she knelt down and recounted today's events, expressing her hope to adopt Fatty Seven.

"Boom boom boom!"

He kowtowed three times in a row, with incomparable piety and sincerity, his forehead was red, and he looked at his grandfather full of prayers.

"Okay, I know about this." The grandfather waved his hand and let the second aunt go down.

The second aunt went back to the room feeling apprehensive.

After the second aunt left, the grandfather recalled that the eldest son had asked the second son if he wanted to adopt the eldest brother's fourth and seventh brothers. fate.Just ask someone to wait in the concierge for the master to come back.

After Ama came back, he and his grandfather finalized the matter in the study. From this day on, Brother Qi is the son of the second uncle.

After Aunt Bai woke up, there was a fuss. Ama later told Aunt Bai that although the seventh brother had passed away, when he got married, the big house would still prepare a dowry gift for him according to the rules.

Er Niang felt sorry for the separation of Aunt Bai's mother and child, and specially agreed that she could not come to the main room for a few days to put down her errands and stay with Seventh Brother.

Aunt Bai and Fatty Little Seven stayed together for a few days, and then Fatty Little Seven was taken away.Fatty Seven's first birthday ceremony was organized by his second aunt herself. Fatty Seventh grabbed a seal that day, and his aunt's eyes narrowed with a smile.
