I suddenly felt dispirited and tired. I instructed Lan Xi, "I'll leave Young Master's matter to you. Hurry up and coax him to sleep. Don't let him run around." He left the bed.

Naturally, Lan Xi agreed hastily.

Jiayi lowered his head, covering his face as he choked.

Looking at his tiny shoulders that were constantly shaking, my heart stopped, and I felt a twinge of pain.

The scenes of him flying a kite and flinging butterflies in the garden once upon a time came back to me in a tumult.

I bit my lip.

If this didn't stop, he would be thrown into chaos!

With that thought in mind, I changed my direction and headed towards the east.

She felt that the tears that she had to endure were still lingering in her ears.

Returning to the east room and sitting down for a while, Lan Li came over from the third yard and told me, "The Gan Sanquan family is very good. They don't cry or make a ruckus, and said they are waiting for you, Miss, to let her family in to see her! Furthermore, knowing that Miss has ordered someone to send some tonic to her family, she is very grateful … "

I was worried that this child had a bad temper and that the maidservants would not persuade him otherwise. But I was also afraid that the maidservants would press him too hard because of my orders, so I ordered Lan Lingyun to go to the East Room and have a look at the situation and tell me what had happened.

"The young master has fallen asleep!" Lan Lingyun carried a basin of water and walked in with a smile.

I secretly calmed down. I didn't know why, but I felt a little disappointed.

After resting for two hours, she got up to comb her makeup and change her clothes. After instructing Lan Lingyun to take a look at Jiayi, she said that she was still sleeping. I smiled and put on the silvery-silver lilac earplugs on my face in the mirror.

After a short walk to my grandmother, who had also just gotten up from her lunch break, I had to sit in the hall for a while until she was ready to go through the door.

When I entered, my grandmother was fully dressed and leaning on the kang, talking to Aunt Wang, who was standing in front of the kang. I hurried up to her with a smile and took out the invitation from my sleeve.

"Look, this is the invitation I selected!"

I handed over the invitation card with light green bamboo grain in my hand to Red Jade, which I then gave to Grandmother.

Aunt Wang quickly took out her reading glasses from the box on the brick bed and helped her grandmother hang them on the bridge of her nose.

Grandmother looked at the invitation for a while before placing it on the kang table. With a slightly unhappy expression, she asked, "Is the banquet using the name of Remembrance?"

I nodded. "The various madams were once my mother's close friends. Now that my mother has suddenly left and the other madams are helping our family, it can be seen that they are reminiscing about the past." Sun Yiyi's daughter felt that this was the most suitable name. "

Grandmother pursed her lips, looking extremely unhappy.

Aunt Wang stood behind my grandmother and kept winking at me, indicating that I should give in to my grandmother.

I pretended not to see him and lowered my head to sip the tea in my hand.

Grandmother looked at the list in the invitation card and became even more unhappy. Her eyebrows furrowed into a blur as she asked, "How come it only cost fifty-five taels?"

"Granddaughter also follows the usual procedure." I smiled faintly. "Speaking of which, the banquet at my mother's funeral is only forty-eight taels of silver." The little feast in our family can't be that high, even if you look at it, you can still make fun of it. "

Grandmother held the list for a long time, unable to utter a word of rebuttal.

I know what my grandmother was thinking, but even if she were to leave, and wanted to give a great feast, the ladies would still remember that she was such a capable person in the past. Grandmother even wanted to tell the other wives through this banquet that although she wasn't in the family, she was still the one in charge of the internal affairs. She could still control the direction of the Yang family at any time.

My position was the opposite of Grandmother's. If she wanted to establish her power, I would have to give up; if I wanted the housekeeper, I would have to do away with all the connections Grandmother had left behind.

In this matter, there is no possibility for us to cooperate at all, so we don't have to feign ignorance and force ourselves to smile. It would be better for everyone to open the door and have a chat, which might save us a lot of trouble.

Now that I think about it, I took it from my mother, who took it from my grandmother. In the past few years, it had increased a lot, but it was not too simple.

If they went back to the source, they could only blame the person in charge, which was their grandmother.

Grandma was stunned for a while, then smiled and closed the list. She smiled and said, "Child, you really … Blue in blue! Since you insist, let's do as you say! "It's just that it's best if we move in earlier. I wanted to move in before the new year is over."

So easy, and Grandmother let go?

Although I didn't show it on the surface, I was really surprised!

She had thought that she would have to negotiate with her grandmother, but after a few sentences, her grandmother gave in.

I smiled and nodded. "I want to discuss this matter with you! "I flipped through the calendar and felt that next month's thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth day would be a good day for banquets and relocations. Take a look and choose one."

Actually, the thirteenth day was the first day after the fifth or seventh year. It was also the earliest day that Grandmother was able to move out.

His grandma told Aunt Wang to go get Huang Qizhi, then she went through them herself. She took off her reading glasses and handed them over to Aunt Wang. "I think we should be fourteen." Fifteen is a month and a half, and those of us from the north start our ancestors at a young age. However, there are some people from the south who are fifteenth ancestors.

I smiled at my grandmother and praised her "considerate," then tucked the invitation and list back into my sleeve.

I sat and chatted with my grandmother for a while, and my grandmother held my hand and talked about her new home, a small house on the hillside behind Shuiyue Temple. It could be said that the backyard was filled with green bamboo, or that there was a mountain spring flowing through the mountain stream, forming a scene of its own accord. It could also be said that there was a hot spring in the back of the mountain that could be soaked at any time.

I couldn't help but sigh. In vain did I think that my grandmother was really determined to lead a different life.

In the depths of the bamboo forest, at the hermit's house, there was a green mountain water, a fat chicken and a wild duck. After listening to Grandmother's description, I also secretly yearned for them in my heart.

"Of course!" Grandmother laughed heartily. "I'm glad you guys came! "I'm just afraid that you'll be too busy to spare yourself, that's the truth!"

For a moment I was sad, but in my heart I knew that my grandmother was not exaggerating.

When Aunt Wang saw the awkward atmosphere, she hurriedly smiled. "Although family matters are complicated, it's not as if you can't draw them out in half a day. You just have to wait for the new year, and then everything will be fine!"

With Aunt Wang's reply, the topic changed to the new year. Grandma couldn't help but smile brightly as she talked about how she planned to spend this special year …

After talking for a while, I smiled and got up to leave. Grandmother looked at the gold watch hanging on her lapel and smiled. "I'm afraid that you'll have to head back now. However, as you've already sat down and drank a cup of tea, you would have to rush here. Why don't you stay here and say a few words? It's time to eat!"

I hastily replied with a smile, "I want to go back and take a look at Jiayi. This child has a fever at noon. I don't know how he is doing now!"

Grandmother pointed at me and smiled at Aunt Wang. "Look at this child. He's not very old, but he looks like a mother!" After I finished speaking, you hurriedly ran back to see your younger brother. "

I couldn't help but curse in my heart. I had to say something that wasn't good!

She wasn't her own mother, yet she was forced to be someone's mother. However, there were people who could only look on helplessly as their own child stood right in front of them. They didn't even have the chance to acknowledge her!

Seeing how her eyes were reddened and her complexion pale, my grandmother realized that she said the wrong thing. This sentence pierced my aunt's heart and caused a look of shame to flash across her face. She then began to speak to me.

"I usually look at you coldly. You are too pampered, but I never have a chance to talk to you. Where do you come from, where do you go, where do you go, all with a child. If you were a little girl, it would still be alright for you to spoil her like this. "It's a perfectly fine boy's house, and he's raised to be gentle and quiet like a little girl. Doesn't he want something to happen to him?"

These words from my grandmother struck a deep chord in my heart. I immediately pricked up my ears and pretended to be listening attentively.

Seeing my actions, Grandmother smiled and continued, "I heard that you want to hand over your family to that child in the future. That's why you keep him by your side and teach him everything. At most, you will only be clearing the accounts with the outer courtyard. How can you know what kind of situation the interests of merchants and merchants are in between those men in the outer courtyard. "" I don't think so.

I nodded to myself, agreeing with my grandmother.

Initially, I wanted to use Dong Feng's mother's funeral to send the family letter to the overseer of the outer courtyard. I wanted him to learn how to take care of people and broaden his horizons, but he didn't succeed. Instead, he was frightened and could only stay in the courtyard to recuperate.

"Being with a bunch of girls all day, no matter what kind of child he is, he will inevitably be raised to be unable to withstand the wind and rain, and his heart will be as big as a needle. Not to mention having his housekeeper, even if he were to help you manage the Inner Academy, it would still be impossible! "

Every word my grandmother said struck me in the heart.

When I took over the boy, he was a bit of a man. But after being raised by me for one or two months, I have stopped climbing the walls or climbing the trees. All I do is follow behind the maidservants and call out 'big sister', or else I just play around with the little girls and make some things like flapping butterflies, kicking shuttles, or flipping cords.

Several times when I saw this situation, I couldn't help but frown, but I didn't know how to say it.

Although this child has been raised by me to be more and more obedient, but also more and more sensitive, so many things have happened recently.

I hurriedly asked, "Then, what do you think we should do?"

A trace of pride flashed across his grandmother's face. She pinched the handkerchief in her hands, wiped her mouth, and smiled. Since he was a boy, he should be raised like a boy. First, find a few of his age, net worth, and lively attendants to lead him to play. Boys, if they weren't naughty and didn't fall and beat, how could they grow up? Look at his thin arms and thin legs. They're like bean sprouts, falling down with just a blow of the wind. They're even more delicate and precious than you girls. How could this be possible!? "

In addition, let him learn about stewards. If he goes out for a walk in the future, won't he have to teach the men a joke?" "Even if I don't go out to test my name, I should at least recognize a few words and keep a few lines of poetry in my heart. Going out for a drink isn't too bad, is it?

I hastily replied respectfully, "I will remember all the matters concerning the tutor. I am only waiting for my father to come back so that I can discuss them with him."

The grandmother waved her hand and smiled, "Your father is back, but I'm afraid he will still be busy. Who knows when he will be invited back. Are you just going to let the child continue delaying like this?"

Hearing my grandmother's words, I also felt troubled.

Grandmother knew her father's temperament very well.

It was likely that these sons of his were not important matters to his father. His wealth was abundant and his family was illustrious. That was the most important thing in his father's heart.

Seeing my grandmother beaming, it seems that I already had an idea in mind. I hurriedly asked, "Then, what do you think we should do?"

Grandmother touched her teacup and smiled. "We are fighting the tiger brothers, father and son. "Isn't it just the best teacher in the family? Why are you looking for him outside?"

I was surprised, and I thought to myself.

Grandmother's intention was to send the family letter to teach her brother to read.

Just in terms of knowledge, a letter from home is naturally more than enough, but... The two brothers were about the same age. They had always been fighting against each other, so how could it be possible for them to put the two of them together?

Grandmother sighed and shook her head, saying, "Child, you're still too narrow-minded! The two brothers were blood-related. This was their nature, and it was impossible to cut them off! You think they're about the same age, and one of them gets in the way of the other, so you force them to reserve a future and separate them. If the two brothers have always fought and fought since they were young, they would never think about each other's good fortune. Normally, everything would be fine and everyone would just care about living a peaceful life, but when the storm arrives and before the auction even reaches our home, I'm afraid our family will be dispersed! "

Grandmother lightly tapped the corner of the table. "Our family is scattered, so it doesn't matter. However, there are still so many people who need to be raised by our family. At that time, they will … "

Those who were raised by the Yang family, including my mother, stood by my grandmother's side, Aunt Wang.

When Aunt Wang saw that I had chatted with my grandmother for quite some time, she personally offered us two cups of tea. With a mournful expression on her face, she said, "Eldest Young Master is a loyal and filial person. He doesn't seem to be someone who would fall out with his brother."

Grandmother and I raised our teacups and smiled at each other, but didn't refute what Aunt Wang had said.

Now that I think about it, Grandmother and I are the same kind of person. We don't mind using our deepest malice to guess at the other person's inner thoughts and see what they're up to.
