The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 2279

[Chapter 2279 Yuxi Fanwai (28)]

While combing the young girl’s hair, Zazao asked softly, “Are the stewards and helpers of the Kindergarten okay with the children?”

Su Sanniang nodded and said, “The children are fed and clothed, and they are taken care of when they are sick. There are also many caring people in Jinling City who will donate money and materials.” The steward heard that Su Sanniang could read and asked her to teach the children to read.

After a period of teaching, Su Sanniang also taught the children to sing and told them stories. Now the little girls in the Kindergarten like her very much.

Similarly, Su Sanniang also gained a lot here.

Oak-hee combed the little girl’s hair, and wrapped the two little ones with two butterflies.

The little girl tied her hair and ran out to show off to her friends.

After walking around the Kindergarten, Oak-hee was quite satisfied with the environment inside.

For lunch, Oak-hee stayed at the Kindergarten to eat. Lunch is thick porridge with sweet potatoes, and a bowl of fried pork with potatoes. The potatoes and the meat, each stood halfway.

Looking at the overjoyed looks of the children, Oak-hee knew that they rarely eat meat on weekdays. But it’s normal. The money allocated by the government is at this level.

During dinner, Oak-hee called a five- or six-year-old girl over and asked, “What do you eat on weekdays?”

The little girl nodded and said, “Porridge, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and sometimes bean rice. The dishes at every meal are either pumpkin, winter melon, or beans.” This porridge is not rice porridge, but multigrain porridge.

“Can you eat enough?”

The little girl nodded and said, “If you’re full, it doesn’t taste good.” The quality of the taste is a matter of the cook’s craftsmanship. However, with good cooking skills, people are reluctant to come to the Charity House to work.

Oak-hee asked the little girl many questions, and the child answered them one by one.

After lunch, Oak-hee left a thousand taels of silver and said that he would cook a meat dish for the children every three to five days and then go back.

On the way back, Zao Zao said, “Mother, what this child said may have been taught by someone else.” It was still an unannounced visit, and the credibility was relatively high. These officials knew that they were in the south of the Yangtze River, and they must have done a good job on the surface.

Yuxi smiled and said, “Looking at the expressions of the children, you can tell that she is telling the truth.” The children of this kindergarten all looked good. It can be seen that these children are definitely not starving.

In the Kindergarten, it is enough for those children to be fed and clothed when they are sick and to be taken care of. No amount can be forced.

Zaozao nodded, and then asked very curiously: “Mother, how did you know that woman?” And listening to the two of them, there is a story in it!

Yuxi briefly explained the story of Su Sanniang, and then said, “I plan to use her story as an example and compile it into a book.” Even if you fall in love, you can’t become a fool. Otherwise, once the man changes his face, the end will be very sad.

Zaozao said with a bad expression: “Mother, you just let that heartless man go?” If it were her, he would definitely ruin the other party’s reputation and make him regret coming into this world.

Yuxi smiled and said, “He’s already bleeding heavily, what else do you want? Kill him? Even as a nobleman, you can’t just kill anyone.”

Zaozao said dissatisfiedly: “For six thousand taels of silver, let this scum go, it’s too cheap for him.”

“Why do you think Mr. Gu would marry her? It’s not that he wants to become Mrs. Gao Ming. But he won’t be able to be an official in his life.” Even if Meng Sheng fails the jinshi examination in the future, he can still be an official if he manages well. , but the starting point is lower than that of Jinshi.

When this hope was lost and 6,000 taels of silver was lost, how could Gu Shi still have a good face towards Meng Sheng. Oak-hee believed that Meng Sheng would not have a good life for the rest of his life.

Zao Zao believed Yu Xi’s speculation: “Hope it!” She wished she could kill the whole world, so she couldn’t harm those poor women. Unfortunately, that’s all I can think about.

Seeing Zaozao’s gloomy face, Qiyou quickly avoided it, in case it would bring disaster to his pond fish.

In the evening, Oak Hee received a letter from Qi Hao.

Qiyou stretched his head and said, “Mother, what did eldest brother write in the letter?”

Oak Xi handed him the letter and said, “Ahao said that Hong Lang’s wedding date has been set, and it will be on September 28 next year. In addition, Ahao also said that he hopes I can go back to celebrate the New Year this year.”

After speaking, Yuxi looked at Qiyou and asked, “Did you tell Ah Hao something?” If not, why did Hao Duan say this.

Qiyou shook his head hurriedly. Undecided, what did he tell his elder brother. Besides, he is eager to play outside for a while longer! Back in the capital, it was too boring to live in the capital all day. It’s hard to come out, the longer you play, the better.

Qi Xuan stammered: “I told Yan Xin in the letter that I might not be able to return to Beijing this year.” Nine times out of ten, this was leaked by his wife.

Yuxi smiled, but didn’t blame Qixuan: “We’ve been in Jinling for almost a month. How about going to Yangzhou now?”

Qiyou was the first to agree: “Yes! Anyway, it’s not too hot to go to Yangzhou by boat.”

Qi Xuan has no opinion on this.

Zaozao disagreed: “Mother, it’s too hot right now, your body won’t be able to take it.” She thought it was better to go overland to be on the safe side.

Yuxi shook her head and said, “It’s ok if you don’t come out when it’s hot. Besides, Yangzhou is very close to Jinling, so it will take at most two days to arrive by boat.”

But two days passed quickly. After thinking about it, Zaozao no longer objected.

Five days later, the mother and son went to Yangzhou by boat. Knowing that Oak-hee didn’t want to be disturbed, the governor, governor and others knew that they were leaving this morning, but they didn’t dare to send them off.

The mother and son stayed in Yangzhou for half a month, and then went to Huaian. Finally, it went to Xuzhou and entered the area of Shandong.

Because of stop-and-go, I didn’t go to Jinan in November. Therefore, the mother and son are preparing to celebrate Chinese New Year in Shandong.

Hearing the news, Hong Lang said with some worry: “Grandfather, do you think the great-grandmother will not come back next year?” Qi Hao had already handed over some of the government affairs to him, so he was very busy now. Otherwise, I would have gone to Oak-hee earlier.

Qi Hao also misses Yuxi very much, but seeing Zaozao and Qiyou both say Yuxi is fine now, even if he misses him, he doesn’t urge them to go back to Beijing: “Don’t worry, your great-grandmother will definitely come back when you get married next September.”

Thinking of Lan Ruoxuan, Hong Lang also had some expectations. No matter her appearance, talent or temperament, Lan Ruoxuan fits Honglang’s intentions very well.

Seeing him like this, Qi Hao was very pleased. After the grandson is married and beautiful, he will soon be able to hug his great-grandson.

After the beginning of spring, the mother and son set off to return to the capital. As soon as they checked into the inn in Baoding, someone sent a message saying they were coming to greet Yuxi.

Yuxi asked Qiyou with some doubts: “Ning Yuanyu? Who is that?” Although she was eighty-nine, Yuxi still had a good memory. But she didn’t have the slightest impression of the name.

Qiyou said with a smile: “Mother, Ning Yuanyu is the eldest grandson of my uncle. According to the seniority, you should be called a cousin. He returned to Beijing from Yunnan to report his work, and happened to live in the inn.”

The older you get, the slower your response is. After thinking for a while, Yu Xi finally said, “Is it Fang Hui’s eldest son?”

“Yes, mother’s memory is really good.” His memory is not as good as it used to be, and by his mother’s age, I am afraid that he will be the same as his father.

Oak Xi sighed a little: “Do the math, it’s been twenty years since your uncle passed away. It feels like time flies by quickly.”

Afraid of Yuxi’s sadness, Qiyou hurriedly said, “Mother, my uncle is dying. This is a great blessing.”

She didn’t want to see the minister of civil and military affairs, but her younger generation had to disappear. Oak-hee said, “Let him in!”

When Ning Yuanyu walked in, Yuxi looked carefully and shook her head gently. This kid doesn’t look anything like his uncle, nor does he look like Yun Xu and the others.

Ning Yuanyu knew that Yuxi was living in, and thought that he was a junior and sent the post. He was very surprised to hear that Oak-hee wanted to see him, knowing that Oak-hee had been reclusive and rarely seen officials these years.

When he knelt down to give a big gift, Yu Xi smiled and said, “It’s all from his own family, so there’s no need for these false gifts.”

Ning Yuanyu said, “The Empress Dowager, the ceremony must not be neglected.” After speaking, he still gave three head kowtows.

Oak-hee sat him down and asked a question: “I heard you’re going back to Beijing to report on your work this time?”

“Yes, the Ministry of War sent me to the infantry battalion as a staff leader.” Among them, Ning Yuanhang made great efforts.

Oak-hee was very pleased: “If my uncle sees that you are all so motivated, he will definitely be very pleased.”

Speaking of Ning Hai, Ning Yuanyu looked a little sad.

Yuxi had a brief conversation with Ning Yuanyu and let him go back.

Zaozao saw that Yuxi didn’t look very good, and said, “Mother, what’s wrong? Do you miss your uncle?”

Yuxi shook her head and said, “I’m thinking of your grandmother. My mother has never seen her before, and she doesn’t even know what she looks like.” Ning didn’t even leave a portrait, and her temperament still came from Qiu’s. heard.

In my two lifetimes, the biggest regret is not being able to see my biological mother.

Zaozao didn’t expect that seeing this Ning Yuanyu actually made Yuxi think of the sad past: “Mother, grandma sees you living such a happy life, and Jiuquan will be very happy.”

Yuxi shook her head and said, “Your grandmother married Han Jingyan, and she didn’t have a good day. I only hope that your grandmother will be reborn into a good family, marry a good husband, and be happy with He Lele for a lifetime.”

Zaozao hurriedly said: “Yes, definitely.”

After a few days, the mother and son returned to the capital. Before entering the city, they saw Yun Xu, Chang Sheng and others coming up to them.

After entering the city, Hong Lang also came.

Hearing that Yuxi was going to live in Baihuayuan, Hong Lang hurriedly said, “Great-grandmother, you should go back to the palace.”

Yuxi shook her head and said, “No need, just live in Baihuayuan Shu!”

Hong Lang said, “Great-grandmother, the imperial grandfather said that if you don’t return to the palace, he will also move to Baihuayuan.”

Yuxi laughed and scolded: “It’s still the monarch of a country, to actually threaten his own mother, it’s really getting more and more promising.”

Zaozao helped Qi Hao to say good things: “Mother, you can bear to let Qi Hao be alone in the palace. Mother, if you live in the palace, you should be with him.” She actually hoped that all brothers and sisters would live together. , so lively.

Qiyou is also on Qihao’s side: “Mother, we all live in the palace, how lively it is.”

Seeing that her children wanted her to go back to the palace, this time Oak-hee didn’t insist on her own opinion anymore, and followed their wishes.

When Qi Hao saw Yu Xi who looked so good, he knew that Zaozao and Qi You had not lied to him. In the past two years outside, her mother has really lived well.

Yu Xi frowned and said, “Ahao, why do you look so bad? Didn’t I tell you to hand over some of the government affairs to Hong Lang, why didn’t you listen?”

In fact, Qi Hao’s face was so bad because he was sick a few days ago. I was just afraid that Oak-hee was worried, so I didn’t say it.

Hong Lang answered, “Great-grandmother, the imperial grandfather put me in charge of the Ministry of Households last year. This year, I am in charge of the Ministry of Personnel again.”

The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households are the lifeblood of the imperial court. This shows that Qi Hao is already delegating power. Yuxi’s expression softened a little.

Just as he was talking, Qi Rui walked in from outside.

Yuxi looked at Qi Rui with red eyes, and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong?” It wouldn’t be her daughter-in-law’s health, either! But as far as she knows, Gao Haiqiong’s body has always been tough!

Qi Rui said, “I had a nightmare yesterday, and I couldn’t fall asleep when I woke up.” I finally fell asleep, and had another nightmare that I didn’t dare to sleep again. After dawn, she squinted for a while, but she missed the time to pick up Oak-hee.

“What kind of nightmare scares you like this?”

Qi Rui didn’t want to say it at first, but after everyone’s questioning, he still bit the bullet and said, “I dreamed that my mother was gone.”

Qi Hao and the others all changed their faces.

Oakhee smiled and said, “Dreams are the opposite of reality. Ah Rui dreamed that I was gone, which proves that I have a few more years to live.”

Zaozao was not at ease, and quickly called two imperial physicians to give Yuxi a pulse.

Both imperial physicians said Oak-hee was in good health. As long as there are no accidents, it is not a problem to live another ten or eight years.

After hearing this, the siblings were relieved.

Oak Xi was a little tired and went back to the bedroom to rest. When she woke up, she saw Liu’er sitting beside the bed.

I haven’t seen each other for two years, and I feel that Liu’er has aged a lot. It is also a very sad thing to watch your children grow old slowly.

Yuxi asked, “How is Xiaohan doing now?”

“It’s good. At the beginning of the year, I wrote that I was pregnant with a child, and the expected due date is in mid-August.” She was worried that Feng Xiaohan would not be able to think about it, and that she would be lukewarm with Luo Yong. She was finally relieved until she saw the letter saying she was pregnant.

After speaking, Liu Er said happily: “It’s thanks to the big sister. If it wasn’t for her, Xiaohan might not have figured it out by now.”

Yuxi smiled and said, “August is the hot time of the year, and Xiaohan will have to suffer a lot by then.”

There is no way to meet it.

Liu Er said, “Mother, I just heard from the eldest sister that she and Qi Rui have both moved into the Cining Palace to live with you. Mother, I’ll move in and live with you in a few days!” So after hearing that Zao Zao was going to move in with Yuxi, he also wanted to move into the palace to accompany Yuxi.

Yuxi shook his head and said, “How can you move to the palace yourself and leave your son-in-law at home. In the future, just come and see me every once in a while.”

Liu Er hesitated.

Yuxi smiled and said, “I’ll be busy in a few days, so I don’t need your company.”

“Mother, what are you doing?” It’s probably not a trivial matter.

Oak-hee didn’t say anything, just sold it out: “You’ll know when the time comes.”
