Otherworldly Days

Chapter 338 Letting Go

It is already the end of June and almost July, and the academy will start school in July. Considering that if you take An An to Fengdu together, it will take a long time to go back and forth to Fengdu. The study was delayed, Cao Xiangnan asked the children what they meant.

"So daddy is asking you what you want now. Do you want to go to Fengdu with daddy, or daddy will send you back home to study." Cao Xiangnan will not disregard the wishes of the children just because they are young, but It is better to clearly tell them the pros and cons and impact of this matter, and let them make their own judgment, whether to go to Fengdu or go home.

In fact, he personally prefers to send a few children home and let them go to the academy to study. The children are still young, and running around with them is not conducive to their study and growth.

What's more, he doesn't know what kind of world is outside of Nanyang. There are too many unstable factors in this world, so he wants to send the child home. There are Liu Guizhong and Liu Shi at home who can take care of the child. Gang and Sun Bailian were both there, so he was relieved to send the child back.

For a while, the children stopped talking, and An An hugged his mother directly, holding his mouth and looking like he was about to cry. sleeves.

"Xiangzi, what about you?" Cao Xiangnan saw that Xiangzi's small face was full of entanglements, he wanted to go and go back to study.If you go this trip, the second half of the academy will be over by the time you come back.

"I, uncle, I want to go back to study." Xiangzi made up his mind and looked at his uncle firmly.

He and brother were lucky to be able to go to their uncle's house. They were given a good house to live in and beautiful clothes to wear. My brother is going to study.

He also longed to go to Fengdu, a place he had only heard of but never been to.But this time his uncle brought them to Nanyang City, he should be satisfied, and go back to study hard, so that he can repay his uncle's kindness in nurturing.

When Cao Ruixing saw that elder brother said to go back, he glanced at what, then at elder brother, and said, "Brother, I will go back with elder brother." As if he was afraid that elder brother would abandon him, he stretched out his hand and grabbed him. Brother's hand.

Deep in his heart, if he had to choose one person, that person must be his elder brother.

"Okay, Xiangzi and Xingxing are going back, what about you, An'an? Do you want to go to Fengdu with Dad or go home? If you go to Fengdu, you will not be able to study in the academy. It will delay your study. If you go back, you Just continue to go to the academy to study hard. When there is a chance in the future, Dad will still take you to Fengdu together." Cao Xiangnan asked with a smirk when he saw his little An An holding his wife's waist. .

Qi Wanfeng didn't speak, and let An An bury his head in his arms. To be honest, he was reluctant to let the children go back. An An had never left him since he was a child, and now he suddenly wanted to leave him, and he still had to be separated for such a long time Only then can we meet, and he feels reluctance in his heart.

But Fu Lang had told him long ago that he was interested in sending the children back home, and now he let the children choose for themselves whether to go to Fengdu with them or go home to study.

Seeing that the child didn't speak, Qi Wanfeng just smiled and reached out to wrap his arms around the child's small shoulders, holding An'an in his arms.For him, this is his first child, even after two children came to the family, Lele was born, and a little Bao'er was left behind.

There are too many children in the family, and sometimes he doesn't care about An An so much. This child has gradually grown so much taller where he can't see, and has become more well-behaved and sensible.Seeing the child and hugging him tightly at this moment, Qi Wanfeng went back to when An An was still young, and he was the only mother who followed behind him all the time.

Fu Lang said that when the children grow up, they will gradually have their own world. What they have to do as parents is to guide a way for them to walk by themselves, and they cannot walk their way for them, Qiwan Feng also felt that what Fu Lang said was reasonable, and he should listen to Fu Lang.

At night, An An came to their room with a small pillow, got into their bed, put his arms around his daughter-in-law to sleep with an aggrieved expression on his face, Cao Xiangnan gritted his teeth and could not drive this brat away, and waited for the child to fall asleep He still clings to his wife like an octopus.

Stretching out his hand to push the sleeping octopus away, he saw Wan Feng shaking his head at him, so he had no choice but to give up and sleep with this little light bulb inside the house.

At dawn the next day, they would board the boat to Fenshui and send the child home. In the end, An An also chose to go home with Xiangzi to study.Cao Xiangnan wanted to send the child back home in person, since it was only a matter of going back and forth by boat, so it would be more reassuring to send the child back by himself. "Wanfeng, I'm sending a few children back first."

"it is good."

Gan Weiqi, who was standing by the carriage, stretched out his arms to hug a few children onto the carriage, and finally Cao Xiangnan also boarded the carriage. The children in the carriage lifted up the curtains of the windows, and when the carriage left, the children were still following the people behind. wave.

"Yeah..." Little Bao'er twisted her body to chase the carriage, pointed her finger in the direction of the carriage, and babbled.

Watching the carriage leave, Fu Lang and several children left together, Qi Wanfeng was still a little melancholy.Seeing little Bao'er babbling anxiously, he understood what little Bao'er was shouting, but instead he smiled and said to the child, "I'll see my brothers later."

Hearing his words, the child turned around and looked at him, with a puzzled face, and pointed in the direction of the carriage, babbling.

Qi Wanfeng coaxed the child in his arms, carried the child into the backyard, and Lele was still sleeping in the upstairs room.I don't know why this child loves to sleep so much. He is afraid that the child is not in good health. His husband told him not to worry. It is a blessing that the child can eat and sleep. Besides, Lele is indeed Lele compared to Xiao Baoer. Le's body is much better than that of Xiao Bao'er, but she is less sick. It may be because Fang Ziye's body was not well maintained when she was pregnant. Xiao Bao'er was also born prematurely. Since birth, her body has not been very good. She has always been a needy person. Take care of it carefully.

The boat that left early, docked at sunset.

"The master's house." Seeing the master's family returning with a few young masters, but not seeing the mistress and the other two young masters, Liu Guizhong and Liu Shi were a little puzzled and looked puzzled.

Cao Xiangnan simply said that he was going on a long trip, "So just bring the children home, Uncle Liu and Ah Mo, you just take care of a few children and take care of their three meals a day. "

"Okay, okay, okay, master, don't worry, we will take good care of the young masters." After listening to the master's words, Liu Guizhong was relieved, otherwise he would go out and come back without seeing the mistress and the other two. Young master, he even wondered if something happened outside.

I know it's nothing serious, the host family just sent a few young masters back home, waiting for the academy to start school in a few days, and the young masters will go to the academy to study.Two boys from his family came back with him. The younger brother of his family did not come back. The master said that he stayed in Nanyang City and followed the mistress to take care of the two young masters. He felt more at ease.

"How is everything at home?" Regarding Liu Guizhong's address, Cao Xiangnan had already given up trying to correct him.

After leaving here for such a long time and not coming back, when I came back and saw the familiar environment, I felt a kind of intimacy in my heart, so the outside world is so wonderful, it is far from this peaceful land, which gives people a kind of nostalgia for home.

As soon as the children came home, they ran wildly in the yard. Two big dogs followed behind them. An An yelled, "Daddy, let's go to Brother Kang Kang to play", and then the children ran like a gust of wind. Ran.

"Go." Seeing the two guardian dogs going out together, Cao Xiangnan took a look and replied.

An An and the others ran out towards the gate of the yard, and met Kang Kang Jingbao who came with his father.Seeing Cao Gang coming, Cao Xiangnan turned his head and greeted him, seeing Liu Guizhong's hesitant expression, motioned Cao Gang to enter the room, nodded his chin, and said to Liu Guizhong, "Speak. "

"This..." Everything was not so good, Liu Guizhong paused, and then told the master's family that the third elder brother wanted to live in this courtyard. They were refused outside the door, and they were not even allowed to enter the door.

The third elder brother of the master's family was not so easy to dismiss. He started making a fuss at the door, thinking that he had concealed the fact that the master's family was at home and would not let him in.If it weren't for the two big dogs raised at home, when they saw a stranger coming, they looked like they were about to pounce on him, and the other party would not dare to come violently.

The family of the master’s family left for a long time and entrusted him to take care of the yard. If they came back from the master’s house, the owner of the yard had changed. When the master’s family came back, how would he explain to the master’s family?

"In the future, if people from the compound dare to come here to act wildly, you can protect the officials directly, regardless of who they are!" He really didn't dare to imagine that Cao Chunqing would live in his house. He has really become someone from the courtyard. He is not so generous that he can even give away the house he lives in.

"Yes!" With the master's words, Liu Guizhong was relieved.

After the crops in the field were harvested, the yamen servants in the yamen came to collect taxes. Liu Guizhong told the matter to the master's family. Give copper coins, don't give grain to offset.If someone in the village was rich in food, he would go to the village to buy some food, and he bought a lot of food.

Liu Guizhong told the master about the family affairs, big and small, in detail during the days when the master was not at home.

"Well, Uncle Liu, you did a good job in these things." After listening to Liu Guizhong's words, Cao Xiangnan had to affirm Liu Guizhong's affirmation and praise, which made the man a little embarrassed, and said on his face, "This is what it should be." Yes, that’s what it should be.” What he fears most is that the master’s family is not at home, and the things entrusted to him are not done well, and he will not be able to explain to the master’s family when the master’s family returns.

He hurried back home, sent the children back to settle down, and handed over all the family affairs to Liu Guizhong, while An An and the others also stayed at home.Early the next morning, Cao Xiangnan hurriedly got on the boat to Nanyang again, and went to Nanyang
