Value peace

Chapter 275 Summer Scorching ([-])

In the summer of Xizhao [-], the weather felt hotter than usual.

Mr. Ding rubbed his eyes, opened the long window of Qinyuan, and looked into the distance.

The lush forest in front of Qinyuan swayed with the wind, making a rattling sound, making this quiet afternoon even more tranquil.

Qi Maosheng, who was sitting on the big couch, also put down the official document in his hand: "That's it, everyone can have a good Qiuxi Festival!"

Mr. Ding let out a "huh".

Ever since Princess Xizhao's marriage happened three years ago, Yan Di had a strong attitude with Xizhao.Xizhao used Jin to invade Yan, Qi Maosheng preemptively negotiated with Jin, Jin used Yan, and Yan was in charge of the war with Xizhao.Then Qi Maosheng mobilized Gaochang's 1 troops to cross Pinghai and enter Jiangzhong County, and then mobilized the county's [-] troops to go south, attacking the south with lightning speed, and fought fiercely with Xizhao's army in Pinghe County. As they entered, the [-] Yan troops in Shannan County headed north, and the two sides formed a coercive attack, eventually annihilating the [-] troops of the Governor's Mansion of Liang Ting, and the two families divided Beijiang County in Liangdi as a result.

In the spring of the second year, the Yan army won a great victory in Jin, annihilating more than [-] Xizhao's army, forcing Xizhao to withdraw from Jin.Since then, Xizhao has completely lost control of the Sanjiagongfu to the north of the Songjiang River.

After Qi Maosheng occupied Jiangzhong County and Pinghe County in Jindi, he did not retreat for a long time, which caused dissatisfaction in Jindi.Since September last year, the two sides have fought three relatively large battles. The Yan army continued to go south with a complete victory and invaded Pingchuan County in Jindi. Last month, the envoy of Jindi came to ask for a truce. Have time to go back to Yongzhou.

Hearing Qi Maosheng's words, Qi Xiao stretched her waist: "Second brother, there is no rush to receive the Jin envoy at this moment. Tomorrow is our brother Xu's first birthday. Let's all go to the bar for a glass of water!"

Brother Xu is Qi Xiao's third son, born to Aunt Wei Xia Qing, and now, like Guan Han, he is raised under Zheng's name.

"Okay!" Qi Maosheng also felt that everyone was very tired during this period, so it's good to take this opportunity to relax. "Tomorrow morning, I will take Xi Yan and Brother Tun there!"

Mentioning Brother Tun, Qi Xiao couldn't help but said, "Did Brother Tun really start squatting with Madam Wei?"

Qi Maosheng nodded with a smile.

"Tut tsk tsk," Qi Xiao said in amazement, "Little sister-in-law is so hard-hearted... Did brother Tun cry?"

Thinking of the scene of Gu Xiyan crying bitterly in his arms last night, Qi Maosheng couldn't help sighing: "The child is fine, but your sister-in-law is crying like a tearful person."

Mr. Ding was a little surprised when he heard this.

I heard that the Young Madam dotes on this son very much. When he was eight months old, she breastfed her own baby. In the end, the Grandpa was so serious that he pinched the milk. This year is three years old, and he often hugs her in his arms. Li kissed and kissed... I didn't expect to be so ruthless that I sent my son to Mrs. Wei to practice martial arts.

Qi Maosheng didn't think of it either: "When I look at her, she really dotes on the child and takes him with me wherever I go. Only in the spring of last year did I add a bearded bed in the room for him to sleep on the side...so Mrs. Wei mentioned it and said Let the child practice martial arts with her, I agreed without saying a word. I didn't expect that Xiyan loves her son because she loves her son, and when it comes to the critical moment, she still knows the severity."

Qi Xiao thought of her three sons. The eldest son, Brother Hui, is eight years old this year. He has been raised by his mother. Yes, I have been following Mrs. Zheng, very naughty, two days ago I killed several koi in the house with a fishing rod...

"Second brother, why don't Han Guanbai learn some boxing skills from Mrs. Wei's school!"

"Okay!" Qi Maosheng welcomed it.I have been away from home for ten days to nine days in the past few years. Brother Tun followed Gu Xiyan. He was really worried that he would be spoiled like a son-in-law. with!

A few people were chatting, and Taozhi sent iced mung bean paste: "Young Madam said, the weather is too hot today, and I was afraid of getting sunstroke, so I asked Sister Hongyu to make it for me."

Qi Maosheng nodded, entertained everyone to drink mung bean paste, they chatted for a while, and then dispersed.

When Qi Maosheng returned to Liyuan, he saw brother Tun nestling in Gu Xiyan's arms, mother and son leaning on the pillow and telling stories.

Brother Tun's third birthday just passed in May this year. Although he is young, he has long hands and feet, and looks like a five-year-old child in someone else's family.He has the typical deep facial features of the Qi family, but has a pair of eyes that are as agile as her mother's. When looking at people, his eyes are bright, shining like gems, very beautiful.But what makes Qi Maosheng most happy is this child's character, cheerful and lively, willing to tell him anything, no matter when he is happy or when he is stern, that child, like his mother, never Never been afraid of him.

Gu Xiyan asked someone to draw a booklet, which was full of stories like "The Wolf is Coming", "The Three Little Pigs", and "Snow White". She often read these to her while hugging Brother Tun. I also like to listen to it very much, and I often go to Gu Xiyan with the booklet: "Mum, tell me stories."Once, when Gu Xiyan went out with Liang Zhangzhu for a private school, Brother Tun went to find Qinyuan and pestered Qi Maosheng to tell him a story.

At that time, Qi Maosheng was talking to everyone about the taxation of Gaochang, so he had no choice but to leave temporarily.

At this time, Qi Maosheng discovered that telling a story to a child is not done once, but a story is told over and over again until Brother Tun is satisfied. Later, she complained to Gu Xiyan: "Is he always like this?"

Gu Xiyan covered her mouth and smiled: "Could it be special to you..."

Qi Maosheng couldn't help sighing: "Xi Yan, it's really hard work for you!"

Having said that, since then, whenever Qi Maosheng saw Brother Tun looking for him with a pamphlet, he couldn't help but feel a headache.

Today, Gu Xiyan was telling Brother Tun the story of "Little Sheep Drinking Water". Qi Maosheng has told this story two or three times. After listening to the first sentence, he knew the following sentence. .

This time, Brother Tun was a little distracted, and when he saw Qi Maosheng, he immediately jumped up on the kang: "Daddy, Daddy..."

A small face, smiling like a sunflower.

Qi Maosheng only felt that his heart was soft.

He walked over and touched Brother Tun's head: "How about playing with Mommy?"

Brother Tun nodded happily: "Mom said the lamb has drunk water!"

Qi Maosheng sat in front of the big kang, and talked to Brother Tun with a gentle expression: "Today I went to my grandmother's place to squat on horseback...does your leg hurt?"

Brother Tun shook his head: "It doesn't hurt at all, just squatting there and not letting you move, it's not fun."

Qi Maosheng nodded, Gu Xiyan had ordered Hongye to serve Qi Maosheng tea.

Qi Maosheng took a sip of tea, and found that Tunsheng was holding his head, not as lively as usual.

He asked Brother Tun: "What's wrong? Is there something that makes you unhappy?"

Brother Tun looked very distressed: "The story told by Muma is not good!"

"Oh!" Qi Maosheng was very surprised. Brother Tun liked to listen to Gu Xiyan's stories, so why did he suddenly say something bad today.

Gu Xiyan was also very surprised, and hurriedly said: "Brother Tun, why do you think Muma's story is not good?"

Brother Tun put his elbows on his chin, looking like a little grown-up: "Mother said, the lamb drinks water upstream, and the big bad wolf drinks water downstream, but the big bad wolf eats the lamb, it's the big bad wolf's fault... ..."

"Yes!" Gu Xiyan wondered, "Is there something wrong with what Muma said?"

Brother Tun looked at Qi Maosheng hesitantly.

Qi Maosheng put down the teacup and said with a smile, "Come on, Brother Tun, tell Daddy."

Brother Tun looked at Gu Xiyan, took a look at his mother's expression, saw that Gu Xiyan was not angry, and then threw himself into Qi Maosheng's arms, and whispered in Qi Maosheng's ear: "Mom said, the big bad wolf is wrong... ...but I think the lamb is too stupid...it is so stupid, of course it will be eaten by the big bad wolf...I want to be a big bad wolf, not a lamb..."

Qi Maosheng laughed and said, "What does it matter? If you want to be a big bad wolf, you can be a big bad wolf. If you want to be a lamb, you can be a lamb. What's wrong with that?"

Brother Tun just took a look at his mother: "But Mom likes lambs, if I say I want to be a big bad wolf, Mom will definitely be unhappy!"

Sure enough, Gu Xiyan said in amazement: "You, you want to be a big bad wolf...why?"

Brother Tun glanced at his father.

Qi Maosheng smiled encouragingly at him.

Brother Tun still hesitated for a while before hesitatingly said: "Because the big bad wolf can eat lambs and rabbits, so I will be the big bad wolf!"

Gu Xiyan was dumbfounded.

Qi Maosheng laughed out loud.

He hugged Brother Tun, and said triumphantly: "Okay, Brother Tun, we will be big bad wolves! Your mother is just a little white rabbit, we won't learn from her..."

Brother Tun now showed a bright smile.

"Maosheng, you can't educate children like this!" Gu Xiyan felt that she didn't know what to say.

He said to let Brother Tun learn to be a sheep, but he is the eldest son of the Duke of Yan. No one is more worried than Gu Xiyan about what he will face in the future, but if Brother Tun wants to be a wolf, those kind-hearted How to cultivate an upright character... Gu Xiyan couldn't help touching her forehead with a headache.

Seeing Gu Xiyan's unhappy face, Qi Maosheng quickly changed the subject: "I heard that you have opened another orphanage, how is it going?"

Ever since they started to run the porridge shed, Han, Liang Zhangzhu, Liu Meier, Cui and others have gathered together.First, they helped find a place to set up a private school, and used their respective contacts to help solve the husband's problem, because the friendship established in the process made them feel closer than other people, and several of them often went to private schools, as if Became a private school volunteer.

Speaking of this, Gu Xiyan remembered what Han Shi came to ask for just now.

She couldn't help but sternly said: "Maosheng, we happen to have one thing to ask you for!"
