The Qin Mansion and the Gu Mansion are indeed not very far apart. The Gongchen Street where the Qin Mansion is located is in the inner city, and this area is full of residences of civil servants, military generals and other high-ranking officials, except for the occasional shopkeeper knocking on the corner door where servants walk Not even a stall.

The streets are spacious, so everyone can ride with confidence.

The Gu Mansion is on the edge of the inner city along Lingsheng Street, which is a sacred place for reading. There are countless large and small academies and businessmen doing various reading businesses nearby, which is called Lingsheng Street.

There were a lot of traders and pedestrians in that section, and the carriage could only drive slowly, but even so, Li Baolu and the others returned to Gu's mansion within a quarter of an hour, which was very convenient.

When the master returned home, Hong Tao led the family's servants out to welcome Li Baolu, and when she saw Li Baolu get off the car, she stepped forward to help her.

Seeing the familiar door, Li Baolu exhaled lightly, and said to herself: She will sleep until the sun is high tomorrow, don't let anyone stop her!

"Madam, the rooms are all tidied up. Mr. Qu and Ms. Qu are arranged in the back guest courtyard, and their siblings can take care of each other. The rooms of Yuan Daxia and Su Daxia are in the east guest courtyard."

As for Bai Yitang, of course he lived in his original West Courtyard. After getting out of the car, he greeted his disciples and went back to rest with his sleeves twitched.

There is nothing to do, no matter how hard he is like his apprentice, he can't rest when he returns home.

Li Baolu worked tirelessly to arrange the guests and apprentices. Fortunately, with Gu Jingyun's help, the arrangements were made in less than half an hour, and everyone went back to their rooms to wash and sleep.

Lying on the long-lost bed, Li Baolu rolled happily on it, and sighed comfortably: "It's still comfortable at home."

"Then you are happy, we don't have any plans to go out in the short term." Gu Jingyun sat on the couch with half-dried hair and sorted out the letters that had been delivered home during this period, all sent by the students of Qingxi Academy .

Li Baolu lay on the bed watching him, "Mother won't come to live with us."

Gu Jingyun smiled faintly, looked up at her and said, "Mother is still young, she can live whatever life she wants, as long as we are filial to her, that's enough."

"I think mother wants us to go back and live with uncle and the others."

"I know," Gu Jingyun nodded, "Although I didn't adopt to my uncle, I am no different from my uncle's child. In the future, we will not only support our mother, but also our uncle and aunt. In the future, our child may even have the surname Qin , but I don't want to live there."

Gu Jingyun paused and said, "At least not now."

It's not that I feel uncomfortable living in my uncle's house, but...

Gu Jingyun tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "Like a grown-up swallow, even though its parents own a luxury villa, they love it very much, but it still wants to fly out of the villa, even if it lives in a simple bird's nest with only grass leaves. willing."

Li Baolu lay on the pillow and smiled, "I know, you just don't want to live with your elders when you grow up."

Gu Jingyun pursed his lips slightly.

Li Baolu thought for a while and said, "Okay, we are still young, let's move back to live with them when we grow up."

Gu Jingyun smiled slightly on his face.

"Do you think that mother knows your thoughts, so she doesn't want to live with us?"

"No," Gu Jingyun said with a slight smile, "It's more comfortable and happier for mother to live in the Qin Mansion."

After all, it was the place where Qin Wenyin grew up, and the Qin Mansion was her home.

"But our house is indeed a bit small, and we can expand it later when we have money."

Li Baolu: Boy, you now have four yards, nearly 1,400 square meters, a garden, and a martial arts training ground. What else are you not satisfied with? Even in this day and age, house prices are expensive, okay?

Thinking of this, Li Baolu hurriedly got up to look through the cabinet, Gu Jingyun saw her take out a box from under the cabinet, and after opening it, her eyes were full of sadness.

"What's wrong?"

"Qinghe, we are out of money again!"

Gu Jingyun: "... I will pay my salary in half a month."

Li Baolu counted with her fingers, and sighed, "That's only enough for food and clothing, and we definitely can't go to restaurants. It seems that we have to find other ways to make money."

Gu Jingyun asked, "What's your opinion?"

Li Baolu patted the bed and said, "Wait for me to think about it slowly!"

Gu Jingyun's eyebrows and eyes were stained with a smile, and he nodded when he looked at his young wife who was full of vitality again: "Okay, think about it slowly."

Li Baolu fell asleep after thinking about it for a while, and when she woke up the next day, it was already bright, and Gu Jingyun had long since disappeared by her side.

She struggled to get up from the bed, when Heart, who was guarding outside, heard the movement, hurriedly went to the kitchen to fetch hot water, "Ma'am, are you awake?"

"Where's your uncle?"

"Uncle went to the Yamen. Before he went out, he ordered not to disturb you. The kitchen has prepared your favorite porridge today. You can eat more later."

Li Baolu vaguely heard laughter outside, washed her face and asked, "Who is outside?"

Hong Tao smiled, "It's Miss Biao. Master Bai went to the Qin Mansion to pick up Miss Biao early in the morning. Mr. Qu and Miss Qu are playing with her."

In fact, it was more lively in the morning, Bai Yitang flew to the Qin Mansion, and instead of going through the main entrance, he sneaked directly to Niu Niu's yard to wake him up.

Niu Niu has lived with Bai Yitang for so long, and she was with him day and night when she came to Beijing, so she is very dependent on him. When she opened her eyes and saw him, she immediately reached out to hug him.

Bai Yitang simply put on clothes for her, hugged her and went shopping.

The maids in the room could not be stopped by others.

When He Zipei and Qin Wenyin heard the sound and arrived, Bai Yitang carried Niuniu up to the roof early, and the two of them could only hear Niuniu's crisp and sweet laughter.

When He Zipei heard the laughter, she threw her hands away decisively. She wanted to raise her daughter in the palm of her hand, but the Qin family is huge, and now she is the only one left in the direct branch. A capable daughter is obviously better than a delicate and weak daughter. better.

Now that she is still young, what they can teach her is limited, but they can let her see more of the world, at least develop her character first.

Although Bai Yitang has been messing around a bit, he will not raise the child in a wrong way. He knows better than them what to show the child and what to avoid.

He Zipei waved his hands away half-heartedly, and Qin Wenyin went out to find them after being restless for a moment.

After experiencing the death of her daughter, Qin Wenyin has always had a hurdle in her heart. She is even more afraid of Niu Niu's harm than He Zipei and Qin Xinfang.

If it is said that Qin Xinfang still has some principles in doting on her daughter, and He Zipei is still strict with her daughter, then Qin Wenyin is really doting on her. She knew it was wrong, and she constantly reflected on it afterwards.

But when Niuniu looked at her with big wet eyes, all worries disappeared, and she just wanted to pamper her.

Usually Bai Yitang took Niu Niu to fly around the house, but today he ran out with the child without even saying hello, it is simply unreasonable.

Bai Yitang took Niu Niu to the street to have breakfast, bought some small things, and wandered back to the house. He happened to meet Qin Wenyin who had killed him, so he had a good time.

At that time, Gu Jingyun went to the yamen, and no one could control the quarrel between the two big masters, and the servants could only stand aside silently, but Niu Niu couldn't see it, so she ran over with her short legs and kicked Bai Yitang. She yelled at him in a childish voice: "Arguing with aunt, bad guy! Men have to give way to women."

Everyone was taken aback, and the little girl twisted her body and ran to Qin Wenyin's side to comfort her, "Don't be angry, aunt, from now on you ignore him, don't feed him, don't make clothes for him, if he still doesn't obey, then don't give him money." He's in the house."

Qin Wenyin blushed, covered her mouth and said, "You, who taught you to say this?"

Niuniu said blankly: "My mother said it! My father made my mother angry, my mother kicked my father out of bed, and my father didn't dare to say anything."

After finishing speaking, he glared at Bai Yitang angrily and said, "How can you yell at aunt, bad man!"

Bai Yitang was dumbfounded, and looked at Qin Wenyin, but saw that her cheeks, ears and neck were all red, and she picked up Niuniu in embarrassment and left.

He couldn't help but feel soft, and it was a little funny, so he could only hold back in order not to make her angry.

After the people left, he glanced across the courtyard, and the servants all lowered their heads, expressing that they didn't hear anything just now.

Qin Wenyin, who carried her niece back to the house, looked at the silly and cute little girl, and was reluctant to say a single serious word, so she could only repeatedly remind her: "Niu Niu, you are not allowed to say these things outside, do you understand?"

"Why?" Niuniu said aggrievedly, "Uncle Bai bullied Auntie, and I will support Auntie, yet you still blame me."

Qin Wenyin hesitated for a while before coaxing, "Niu Niu supports Auntie, Auntie is very happy, but your Uncle Bai didn't bully Auntie..."

"Uncle Bai quarreled with you," Niuniu said excitedly, "Isn't he bullying you by talking loudly to you? My mother said that was bullying."

Qin Wenyin wanted to cry but had no tears, "Son, your Uncle Bai and I are different from your father and mother."

"How could it be different?" Niuniu said anxiously, "It's obviously the same."

Qin Wenyin looked at her young niece and suddenly didn't know how to continue this topic.

She is only three years old, so she doesn't understand even if I explain it.

Niu Niu thought that Qin Wenyin's silence was tacit consent, she cheered up, and said triumphantly: "I just said it's the same, it's wrong for Uncle Bai to bully Auntie."

Niuniu didn't sleep with her parents until after the Chinese New Year. She used to sleep in her parents' warm pavilion.

There is no husband and wife who does not quarrel, even Qin Xinfang and He Zipei will have differences, not to mention that after having Niu Niu, husband and wife have more things to consider, and some conflicts are inevitable.

A few years ago, the couple had a quarrel, and He Zipei kicked Qin Xinfang out of bed when he spoke a little loudly. Afterwards, he was locked out and had to sleep in the study for two days.

At that time, the servants sent by Ru Ning had arrived, they couldn't help discussing, thinking that the relationship between the master and wife is really good, and the wife is mighty, and she managed to beat the master to death.

The servants felt that Niuniu was only three years old, and they didn't avoid her when talking.

Who knows that Niu Niu is the age who likes to learn and think, so she writes down what she listens to and draws a conclusion based on the private conversations between her parents at night. Men can't quarrel with women, and they can't speak loudly to women, otherwise they are bullying and wrong. Yes, it can kick people out of bed.
