Chapter 352: Little Fatty’s Weird Brain Circuit!
Jiayin doesn’t think so. Her brothers are all kind-hearted and hard-working men, worthy of the best girls in the world.
“My brother is the best. If Sister Peng marries him, she will be able to eat delicious food every day from now on!”
Orange Mrs. Li and Zhao Yuru both burst into laughter. Mrs. Li clicked on the good news from a distance, "This little girl is quite protective of her shortcomings!"
Soon, the academy took its lunch break. Jiaren was worried about his younger brother's marriage, so he picked up Brother Li and hurried back.
When he saw that his family members were all smiling, his heart dropped.
He stepped forward and patted Jia Huan on the shoulder, jokingly saying, "Brother Huan, you are getting a wife!"
Jia Huan blushed, and it took her a while to hold back a sentence, "Brother, don't laugh at me. I am the second eldest child in the family, but I have to get married first. Don't be angry...
"What are you talking about, fool!" Jiaren was sincerely happy for his brother, "I don't know how long I will have to study in the future, and getting married will take ten or eight years. Are you all waiting for me and not marrying a wife? "
The two brothers stood side by side, talking and laughing.
Someone came over for dinner. Jia Huan hurriedly picked up the food, and Jia Ren helped carry it over. He didn't care whether he would get his gown dirty or whether familiar students would laugh at him for doing such chores.
Jiayin sat on the back threshold, gnawing on half a green melon, watching her brothers busy, her smiling eyes curved into crescents.
In the backyard, Brother Li was accompanying his grandma, chattering about interesting things about the academy. He heard Mrs. Li nodding from time to time, and then she was surprised or happy, so Brother Li talked more.
The child who was thin and silent at the beginning seems to have lost his stone shell, and finally has the cheerful look that a child should have!
Mrs. Li couldn't help but hugged her grandson and patted his back gently, "Brother Li, do you think it's okay for you to have been home with dad for so long?"
Brother Li was stunned for a moment, then he hugged grandma back with a smile and nodded heavily, "Well, grandma, it's good to be home. I like my brothers and sisters, my uncles and aunts, and of course I like grandma the most!"
"That's good," Mrs. Li kissed her grandson's forehead, "You can grow up happily like this. In the future, grandma will buy a big yard here and bring Jia'an and Jiaxi, as well as cats. Brother, when the time comes, you can study together!”
Zhao Yuru happened to bring the food over and asked, "Mom, is Jia An Jiaxi coming to study too?"
Mrs. Li replied: "That's my plan for the time being. It's okay to get started in the village school, but if your child wants to earn a living, he still has to be sent to an academy. Even if he doesn't take the science test in the future, it's good to make a few friends and broaden his horizons."
"That's true," Zhao Yuru nodded, "The academic subjects in the academy are not too strict. I think these students study very easily, but every time they take exams, there are many talented people! Speaking of which, the teachers in the academy are great. "
Soon, Jiaren came over, and everyone was chatting and eating, and it was very lively.
After dinner, Jiaren took Brother Li back to the academy.
Jiayin sat on his father's shoulder and went to the end of the street to buy freshly baked sticky cakes for his brothers. When he came back, the carriage was packed.
Old Mrs. Li gave a few instructions, then took her granddaughter into the carriage and hurried home.
When I came here, I agreed with my family that I would come early and come back late, but I was delayed all night. My family didn’t know why they were worried...
When passing by Xindu, there was good news about going to the Marquis Mansion.
Mrs. Li didn't stop her and walked to the gate of the Hou Mansion with the good news. The housekeeper happily came out and accepted the good news.
The old lady exchanged greetings with him and left in a hurry without entering the Marquis' Mansion.
Jiayin was a little sleepy due to the jolting of the carriage, so she entered her room and fell asleep.
When I woke up, the Marquis was already standing by.
“Father!” Jiayin rubbed her eyes and climbed onto the Marquis’ lap to sit on her lap. “Father, I want to go out and play!”
The Marquis couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, "You just woke up, why are you thinking about going out to play?" "Father, my second brother is getting married, and I'm going to buy a bracelet for my grandma!" Jiayin said seriously, There was a rare solemnity on his little face.
Master Hou doesn’t understand how the little girl’s brain works. Shouldn’t he be buying a gift for the new sister-in-law? Why is he buying it for the old lady instead?
But my daughter said she wanted to go shopping, so she had to go!
It’s not as difficult as reaching for the stars and the moon, it’s just a few steps.
Immediately, he called the maid in, took care of Jiayin to wash up, changed into a new dress, and then the father and daughter went out.
The housekeeper also left the Hou Mansion and brought a boy and a maid to follow and serve him personally.
At the shopping street, the Marquis got out of the carriage and led Jiayin towards the largest jewelry store.
Some people recognized him on the street and couldn’t help but stop and take a closer look.
“Is that the Marquis of Xinting?”
“Probably, why are you bringing a little girl with you?”
"You are really out of date. Did you just come back from a trip? Haven't you heard that the Marquis recognized the little girl from the Li family in Broken Gold Beach as his adopted daughter? The emperor personally decreed that the little girl be made the princess, with the title of Kang Le. Even Broken Gold Beach has been given to the princess as a fief!"
"What, is there such a thing? It's just a title of monarch. How come the land is returned to me? Isn't there any objection from the veterans in the court?"
"Of course I objected. I heard that someone was talking about this in the court this morning. As a result, the Marquis pushed him back with just a few words."
“What are you talking about? Say it quickly, say it quickly!”
"The Marquis said, I have fought for the country, lived and died several times, and kept Jiangnan safe and the people living in peace. Isn't this merit enough to exchange for a fief? I am ready to die on the battlefield at any time. Only this righteous daughter is my concern. All the glory of this Marquis All the meritorious deeds will bring her peace and happiness, that’s enough!”
“The Marquis really...dotes on this adopted daughter so much!”
“Yes, many people say that Mr. Hou does not plan to get married and have children. From now on, the house of the Hou family will be given to this little girl from the Li family.”
“What tricks did the Li family use to coax Mr. Hou into chaos!”
“I don’t know. I have long heard that the Marquis treats the Li family differently. Everyone still didn’t believe it, but now everyone knows it.”
No matter what outsiders say, when Mr. Hou and Jiayin entered the jewelry store, the sharp-eyed shopkeeper hurried forward to greet them.
Hearing that he wanted to buy bracelets, he immediately brought up all the bracelets in the building.
Gold, silver, emerald, even coral beads and pearl chains were not left behind.
The prince only glanced at it and asked his daughter, "It's too tiring to choose, so buy them all."
“No, no!” Jiayin quickly shook her head and walked around with her little chubby hands on her back, “Father, you don’t understand. You have to pick and choose when buying things. Only when you finally choose the one you like the most will you be happy!”
The Marquis was amused and asked, "Isn't it because I couldn't bear the money that I bought one?"
Jiayin was exposed to Cai Fan’s little thoughts and stamped his feet angrily, “I will never go shopping with my adoptive father again!”
The Marquis laughed loudly and quickly tried to please him, "My foster father is wrong. You can buy as many as you want, and my foster father will pay for it for you!"
"No, I have money of my own!" Jiayin patted her small purse, "I am a rich little woman, I want to buy it myself!"
Mr. Hou didn’t stop her, he just glanced at the shopkeeper. He understood and immediately stepped forward to help introduce her.
