The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 293
In the twinkling of an eye, it has been the eleventh year of Hongchang. On this day, Mu Xu and Tu Rui came back from a meeting for a drink. As soon as Fang stepped into the door of the ceremony, he saw Mao Geer sneaking out of the door with a bag on his shoulder, and beat him up. After meeting each other, I was so scared that I wanted to hide my tracks.

When Mu Xu saw this, he immediately yelled, "Stop, if you dare to hide, be careful that I will break your leg."

Brother Mao knew that he couldn't escape, so he came to Mu Xu dejectedly, bowed his shoulders and bowed, "I have seen my father."

Seeing his nine-year-old son standing up like this, Mu Xu immediately frowned, and said in displeasure, "What does it look like standing like this, tell me to stand up straight!" Brother Mao was shocked, Immediately straightening up, Mu Xu asked, "Where are you going with the burden, you'd better answer me honestly, otherwise your great-grandmother and your mother won't be able to protect you."

Brother Mao was silent for a long while, before saying anything, "I want to go to Liaodong to find my grandmother."

"Don't lie to me. Your grandmother is far away in Liaodong. With your small arms and legs, you will probably be tied up by a strongman as soon as you leave Beijing!"

Unconvinced, Brother Mao said, "I have learned the skills taught by my father seriously, and many guards in the house are no match for me!"

Mu Xu didn't care about this, walked up to his son, grabbed his collar like he was catching a chicken, and walked in, saying, "If you don't want to tell me why today, look How can I teach you a lesson!"

Brother Mao struggled for a long time to no avail, so he had no choice but to smash the pot and said, "I want to learn martial arts like my father, but my mother insisted that I study literature and said she would send me to an academy."

Hearing this, Mu Xu stopped in his tracks immediately, put his son on the ground, and said with a headache, "Then you can't run away from home, you are only a little old, let alone what to do if you lose it, if you disappear, Your mother and great-grandmother don’t know how to worry about it! Tell yourself, is this right?”

Brother Mao thought for a while, and honestly admitted his mistake, "My boy knows his mistake, and he will never dare again."

Seeing his son admitting his mistake, Mu Xu patted his head in satisfaction, and said, "Well, he is a good boy." Then he said, "As for the academy, I won't go there for now, I will tell your mother about it." Yes, but you have to earnestly learn literature from the master, so you can’t be blind in the future, right?”

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Brother Mao was quite happy, but after hearing the second half, he immediately said with a bitter face, "My child wants to sleep when he hears those words, can you stop learning?"

Mu Xu sighed in his heart, this is really his seed, just like when he was a child, but he deliberately said with a straight face, "No bargaining is allowed, or I will leave you alone and let your mother send you to the academy. "

While the father and son were talking, they arrived at Zhaohui Courtyard. As soon as Fang entered the door, a small figure called Daddy and rushed towards Mu Xu. It was the four-year-old daughter of him and Daiyu. Make fruit.

Mu Xu loved this little girl the most. Seeing this situation, he quickly lowered his body, hugged her into his arms, and rubbed his stubbled chin on her face, causing the little girl to scream excitedly.

"Has Guo'er been obedient today?"

Guo'er put her arms around Mu Xu's neck, and replied seriously, "Guo'er is obedient, Master Su even praised Guo'er, saying that I can read characters faster than my brother, and my brother is an idiot!"

"Haha, Guo'er is awesome. Daddy Minger will take you to ride a horse." Mu Xu was amused by her daughter's childish words, and laughed, and hurriedly made a wish to her daughter.

It was Daiyu who couldn't stand it anymore, and stopped her aloud, "Don't spoil her like this, this girl just ran to the pond a while ago and fed all the koi inside to death."

Mu Xu hugged her daughter, came to sit beside Daiyu, and said indifferently, "Then what's the fuss, let the girls follow, just don't let Guo'er fall into the pond."

Daiyu was about to argue a few more words, but suddenly caught a glimpse of her son standing at the door with a burden on his shoulders, immediately turned her pretty face cold, and said seriously, "Brother Mao, what are you doing with your burden on your back?"

Hearing this, Brother Mao trembled in fright, and turned his eyes to Mu Xu for help. Unexpectedly, Daiyu had already guarded against this move, and said before Mu Xu could help, "Don't look at your father, he I can't save you today! I asked you to learn literature with the master, but you are lucky, you are almost ten years old, but you only learned a thousand-character essay, you are not ashamed! When I was your age, but I have finished studying the Four Books and Five Classics!"

"Hey, boys have skin at all. Not everyone is as smart as Yu'er. When I was a child, my head grew big when I read books. Isn't it still good-looking now?" Mu Xu coughed lightly, and chose to speak for his son.

It's fine if Mu Xu doesn't speak, but when she speaks, it's like adding fuel to the flames, making Daiyu even more angry. She gouged out Mu Xu's eyes angrily, and said angrily, "You still have the nerve to say, in the past, I want to take care of Mao Brother, you always stop me, now it’s alright, if this goes on, I’m destined to become an ignorant person!”

Seeing that Daiyu's temperament is not small, Mu Xu hurriedly advised, "Calm down, we brother Mao won't have to take the No. [-] Scholar exam in the future, as long as he can read and write, why are you so angry?" The son winked and shouted, "Bastard, hurry up and apologize to your mother!"

Brother Mao understood his father's meaning, hurried to Daiyu, and bowed respectfully, "I know my mistake, please forgive me!"

Daiyu hadn't made a statement yet, she didn't want Guo'er in Mu Xu's arms, so she bowed her hands, and said in a milky voice, "Mother, mother, Guoer apologizes for brother."

Seeing how cute her daughter is, most of Daiyu's anger has been dissipated, so she had no choice but to say, "Forget it, you are all good people, and I am the only one who is evil." After sighing, she said to Brother Mao, "Since you My father said so, so I will not force you to go to the academy again, but I will personally check your homework at the end of each month, and if you meet my requirements, then I will allow you to continue practicing martial arts. If you fail for three months, you have to take care of your own skin."

After sending away her disgraced son and letting the girl take her daughter out to play, Daiyu pinched Mu Xu and said angrily, "How can you be like this? You have to protect it, and if things go on like this, how can you do it?"

Mu Xu rubbed the soft flesh around his waist, and said disapprovingly, "I said you are a genius for worrying about nothing. Our children will be mediocre in the future, as long as they don't become playboys." In order to increase his persuasiveness, he also took My sister gave an example, "Take Tong'er as an example. She used to be lawless in the house, but now after she gets married, look, she is still very virtuous. What is missing?"

Hearing Mu Xu's shameless words, Daiyu felt embarrassed.It's just because the truth is not like this at all. Three years ago, Mu Tong, a girl, was married to Chen Ting's youngest son, Chen Zhi, through the matchmaking of the Empress Dowager Chen. The two were harmonious at first, but as time passed, Mu Tong revealed her true nature. Not only did he pinch that kid Chen Zhi to death, he guarded her to live alone and did not say anything, but if anything went against her, she would speak out with fists and kicks at every turn.

However, that girl had learned the physical exercise technique from Mu Xu, and she had some kung fu in her hands. Chen Zhi's three-legged cat's skill could not be her opponent.It was strange to say, but Chen Zhi still followed suit, not only didn't feel ashamed, but also proudly boasted to others that his wife was Mulan alive.

Chen Ting was quite open-minded and never interfered with children's affairs, but his wife Li couldn't accept it, and tried to set rules for Mu Tong over and over again.Before Mu Tong got married, he was spoiled and spoiled by the whole family, so he couldn't bear this grievance, so he ran back to his mother's house immediately.Mu Xu is just such a precious little sister, so she would not allow others to bully her, so she immediately found an opportunity to beat up her brother-in-law, and ordered Feng Ziying to collect evidence against Li's natal family, and kicked out all the Li family members from Beijing.

Then Mrs. Li had nothing to do with Mu Xu, so she had to run into the palace and complain to her sister-in-law who was the queen mother, but the queen mother Chen was very kind to Mu Xu, a nephew, and didn't like her mother's sister-in-law, who went crazy when she heard about it, so not only did she not punish Mu Xu , On the contrary, he dislikes Li's much ado about nothing.This made Mrs. Li so angry that she wanted to encourage her husband to deal with the Mu family after returning home, and even wanted Chen Zhixiu to get rid of Mu Tong.

But something unexpected happened to Mrs. Li, Chen Ting and his son were unwilling to listen to it, even Chen Ting restrained Mrs. Li, and decided to divide the family for his son, making it clear that his wife would not interfere. Chance in the son's room.In the end, Mu Tong returned to the Chen family after Chen Zhi personally visited the door to plead guilty. Now the young couple has a son, and their lives are quite prosperous.

Therefore, it is acceptable for Mu Xu to use others as an example, but Daiyu simply does not buy Mu Tong's argument, and she is too lazy to argue with this partial guy, and still worries, "I don't care, anyway, you are not allowed to get used to it in the future." Let alone Brother Mao, let alone Brother Ang, you see he is only one year younger than Brother Mao, but under Yinglian's teaching, he is so polite and knowledgeable." After all, she felt that it was not enough, and continued, "There are also Yi'er and Chen'er. Although they are young, they are all hardworking and studious, and none of them are more sensible than Brother Mao!"

Yi'er and Chen'er in Daiyu's mouth are the sons of Baoqin and Zijuan. Speaking of which, Mu Xu is considered to have many sons and blessings now. There are as many as five sons alone. Mu Zhao, born to Yinglian, Mu Yang born to Yinglian, Mu Yi born to Baoqin, Mu Chen born to Zijuan, and Mu Xing born to Baochai last year.In addition, there are three daughters, Jin'er born to Baochai, Guoer born to Daiyu, and Yaoer born to Qingwen.By the way, Mu Xu and Qin Keqing also had a son, but not many people knew about it. They claimed that Qin Keqing adopted him from the Yangshengtang and named him Qin Yan.

Being nagged by Daiyu, Mu Xu couldn't help it, so he had to use his brain to ponder, let alone, it really made him think of an idea, "Since you don't trust me to discipline your son, why don't you send it to the father-in-law's mansion, let him be How does father-in-law teach him?"

Daiyu's eyes lit up, and she praised involuntarily, "You have a good idea. Daddy retired a few years ago, and now he just happens to be at home. Besides, Pan'er went to study in the south of the Yangtze River again. Let Mao Geer go, not only can he accompany Daddy, It can also let him teach his grandson well, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone." Thinking of this, Daiyu couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately wanted to take her son back to her mother's house.

Mu Xu hurriedly pulled her back and tried to persuade her, "What are you in a hurry for? It's not too late to go tomorrow, you have to say hello to grandma. It's not like you don't know that grandma loves Brother Mao the most. If you don't tell her, Sending Brother Mao away like this, the old man will definitely not agree."

Daiyu thought so, so she sat down again, and talked about other things with Mu Xu. The two were talking lively, and a girl came to report, "The son, the concubine, the second grandma Lian of Rongguo Mansion and Miss Ying are here." gone."

Mu Xu was taken aback for a moment, a little puzzled why Wang Xifeng brought Qiaojie here. Speaking of Jia's mother's death last year, Jia's family was busy keeping their filial piety, and it was indeed a long time since they came out for a walk.He was thinking about it here, Daiyu said, "Please hurry up!" After speaking, he asked Mu Xu, "Do you want to avoid one or two things?"

Mu Xu shook his head, "It's okay, I haven't seen that girl Qiaojie for a long time, just happened to meet her."
