Several children were playing in the garden for a long time, and when they heard Ginkgo calling them to eat roasted sweet potatoes, they ran away.
"Wow~ it's been a long time since we've eaten roasted sweet potatoes."
"Hey~ it's hot! It's hot!"
The third child anxiously grabbed one, but was weighed back and forth by the hot hands, and then put it back on the plate.
"You deserve it, what's the hurry, everyone must have a share." Zhou Yong also reached out and tried it, and found that it was really hot, "Go and get a few pairs of chopsticks?"
"Okay, the villain will go get it." Qingzhu actively ran to the kitchen.
Mai also stood on tiptoe beside him, his hands resting on the stone table, his head stretched upwards, "Brother, what is a roasted sweet potato? Is it delicious?"
"Delicious, sweet and fragrant~"
Zhou Yong picked her up and gave her a look.
She looked at her eldest brother suspiciously, "Black Yoyo? Delicious?"
"It's not delicious, don't eat it!"
"Bad third brother, it's not delicious, don't eat it!"
"Humph~"
The younger brother of the Qiu family was also preparing to climb on the stool to see, but was picked up by Tuesday.
Seeing that he was about to reach for it, he quickly hugged him away on Tuesday, "It's hot, you can't touch it, I'll ask the maid to feed you later!"
Mrs. Qiu's maid took over her young master and comforted him softly.
"Master, the chopsticks are here~"
When Zhou Yong saw that the third one got the chopsticks, he stretched out his hand towards the biggest one and quickly slapped off his chopsticks, "Wait... Rock paper scissors, whoever wins will pick first!"
The third child was unconvinced and played a chopstick rest with him before giving up resistance!
"Kong Ru let Li, brother and brother respect, big brother doesn't let little brother, how can I respect you!"
Zhou Yong also glared at him, "Respect the old and love the young, why don't you let me have some wheat! And the old and young are in order, one after another, why don't you let me go first?!"
"Ah? This..."
Zhou Yong took a big one for younger brother Qiu, who was a guest, and gave a smaller one to Mai.
The third child is also convinced now, and dare not make any comments.
He took the opportunity to take it for himself, the third one was flat-mouthed, forget it.
Wheat laughed aside, "Rock-paper-scissors, big brother?"
"No need for rock-paper-scissors. Your third brother has no opinion. Let's eat first. Are you hungry after playing for a long time? Do you want me to feed or ginkgo?"
"You have to eat by yourself!"
"No, it's hot, you can't eat it by yourself."
"Hey, big brother!"
"Okay, then I'll blow first..."
Pei Xiu and the others came to the garden after eating and thinking about their children, but when she saw the scene of the eldest petting her sister, she smiled knowingly...
The eldest son is becoming more and more like a brother. He was mischievous and troubled when he was a child, but now he looks so heartwarming.
Madam Yang said curiously, "Your eldest is fifteen years old, right? He is so tall, I don't know if he is seventeen."
"Yeah, the eldest and the second are like their fathers."
"Does your husband have any plans for your boss?"
Pei Xiu smiled and shook his head, "He's only fifteen years old, he's not yet old, we have filial piety, and he will be seventeen when he shows his filial piety, so he won't be in a hurry for two more years."
Originally, he was thinking of letting him take the Yulin Army test at the age of sixteen, but now it can't be done. Baishan filial piety is the first, and he has to wait for the filial piety period to expire before he can take the test.
Moreover, Zhou Cheng has been promoted too fast in the past two years. After his victory last year, he was directly promoted to the third rank, becoming a hot figure in the capital.
Rank 4 to Rank 3 is a threshold. No matter how many people spend ten years, they will not necessarily rise to the top. However, he has military merit, and no one dares to make sense of it.
But he still made a lot of people jealous behind his back, and many veterans in the army were not as fast as him!
Fortunately, after my promotion last year, I immediately took leave to return to my hometown to visit a doctor, and I also avoided some pink eye diseases by temporarily leaving the court.
Now they have to observe filial piety for another twenty-seven months, and the whole government can just keep a low profile for two years. It is not a bad thing for their family to decline the banquets from each government.
Their family is in need of precipitation!
Mrs. Qiu also said: "Fortunately, the filial piety is only seventeen, so I just said that I will marry, so it is not too late. It is not too late for men in their twenties to get married, and many scholars have dragged their feet until they are old, waiting for the title of the golden list to be captured by the list! For those who are in the official career, the wife's family is very important. Of course, the Zhou family is different now, so you don't need to consider the identity of the wife's family. "
Pei Xiu nodded with a smile, although she didn't care much about her family, but in this era, the status is different, and the education received is different. In a big house, there are differences between the descendants, and sometimes the concubines are not as knowledgeable as a maid.
Not to mention a country girl, very few people can read, and she can read sensible, governor, and etiquette. She still hopes that her future daughter-in-law will be a polite and generous lady.
After all, the ancients paid attention to the order of old and young. This family was to be handed over to the eldest son, and it seemed that the eldest son also wanted to inherit Zhou Cheng’s mantle and take the road of military generals. It was very important to be the mistress of the house.
An unvirtuous wife will bring disaster to three generations. It is not casually said.
"There was still the sun just now, but the sky is overcast all of a sudden? The sun in late autumn is too short." Pei Xiu looked up at the sky.
"You just came back, so you still need to prepare more silver frost charcoal. It may be cold when it will be cold, and it will be New Year's Eve in two months."
"I know, I just learned about the current affairs in the capital this morning~ By the way, I will put down the ledger and arrange it tomorrow." She is also very concerned about Zhuangzi, and plans to visit in two days. Look, things have to be done step by step.
At this time, the children in the pavilion also found them, and they all called their mothers, and they also went to the pavilion.
"Is it delicious?" Mrs. Qiu gently wiped the corner of her mouth for brother Qiu.
"good to eat!"
Mai Mai sat in Zhou Yong's arms and said impatiently, "Mother, I still need it after I finish eating."
"If you eat too much food, it will get hot, and you will be full after eating such a big person."
The third child also said, "Mother, cook some more corn to eat?"
"The corn is dried and threshed, so you can't eat it, let's wait for the next year!"
The three brothers are sorry, they all like to eat corn.
Zhou Yong said: "It was delayed this year. After the seeds were sown, they went back to their hometown. I didn't watch them grow up and receive the goods. Mother, let's go to sow seeds next year, shall we?"
"Can."
"Mother, shall we go to Zhuangzi again in the next two days?" On Tuesday, he was still thinking about grapes and green apples.
"I also have this intention. Let's go the day after tomorrow and wait until the house is busy."
"Yeah"
The three brothers cheered, one more day before going to the academy.
"I also need to go."
Mai didn't know why, but seeing her brothers happy, she hurriedly said happily, for fear of being left behind.
"I also need to go…"
Mrs. Qiu smiled and patted her silly son, "Do you know where they are going? You should go!"
Everyone laughed when they saw his confused look, and hid him shyly in Mrs. Qiu's arms.
"Eat quickly, the sun will set early, and we will go back early."
