Chapter 336: No Stupid Daddy
Mu Yihan’s throat was tight, and he didn’t know how to coax the child, so he just kept repeating these three words.
A slender and powerful hand covered Xiao Nuobao’s back, patting it carefully and rhythmically, trying to comfort her a little.
Xiao Nuobao seemed to feel it, and after crying a few times, she twisted her little body, buried her face in Mu Yihan’s chest, snored and went back to sleep.
I don’t know how long it took, when Xiao Nuobao woke up again, Mu Yihan had returned to Xianquanju to discuss matters with Ali because of a new letter from Beijing.
He left a note on the edge of the kang. It
was written in a sloppy hand, with a crying little fat girl drawn, and three question marks next to it.
Mu Yihan didn’t know who the "mother" and "stupid daddy" mentioned by Xiao Nuobao were.
But thinking that the little girl was crying like that, it was probably because of her biological parents, she decided to try to find out her origins after she was done with this.
Xiao Nuobao held the note and looked at the ugly little painting on it. She couldn't help laughing and had a big round snot bubble.
"Ah, Uncle Mu's painting is so ugly, or Si Guoguo's is better." She muttered, holding the back of her head.
This interruption made her forget what her mother meant in her dream...
Anyway, since Daddy didn't come to find her in time as her mother said, Xiao Nuobao already regarded him as a big fool and didn't want to care about him anymore!
Even if Daddy really showed up in front of her with a lot of beautiful clothes one day.
Humph, she would also have to consider whether to forgive him!
In the past two or three days, Elder Song has sent letters to Yuncheng one after another regarding Liu Niang and the others, as well as the reply letters from the southern frontier army.
Some of them are related to important matters in the court, waiting for Mu Yihan to make the final decision.
Ali simply spent some extra money and booked a superior guest room to be used as the study of the imperial teacher, separate from the bedroom for rest.
In the morning, Mu Yihan was in the study, dealing with important matters in the letters. In the afternoon, he
took a short break, played with Xiao Nuobao, and occasionally called Jiang Fengze and the others to discuss some details about the southern army.
It seems that the imperial teacher intends to stay for a long time, otherwise Ali would not have decorated the study.
In order to take good care of this distinguished person, the Jiang family has been very busy, using all kinds of martial arts.
Li Qiqiao, needless to say, with the recipes given by the Xiao family, she can cook in various ways, and never repeat the same thing.
Sometimes she would be happy for a long time when she saw that the plates were used up, or when Mu Yihan said, "Well, your cooking skills are good, you can go to the palace to be a chef."
Although Xiao Fengmiao loves to make trouble, he never dares to be naughty in front of the national master. As long as he comes, he will be much more obedient, and often play Cuju for him to watch.
Chun Ge'er will occasionally perform "biting toes with bare hands", but the master is of course his aunt.
Whenever Feng saw this, she would pinch her nose and say, "You were corrupted by your aunt. If you don't know, you would think that we don't have enough food and can only use our feet to make up for it."
In fact, Mu Yihan was quite happy to watch this "biting feet" program.
But he didn't like the boy.
After watching him for a few times, he felt that the boy was dirty, and the soles of his feet were burnt yellow, which was really not aesthetically pleasing.
On the contrary, Xiao Nuobao's feet were snow-white, like a pig's hoof, which made him feel happy and he would often pinch them.
The excitement caused by the national teacher soon attracted Feng Jing and Dean Wei.
On this day, it was the day for the academy to rest. When Dean Wei accompanied Feng Jing to Jiang's house for a meal, he was almost scared to the point of falling on the doorstep.
"What, what, you said that the national teacher is in your house now? It's that national teacher, not some guy named Guo Mingshi..." Dean Wei stood at the door, staring at the house with wide eyes.
Jiang Fengnian parked the carriage and whispered, "Why did you say the same thing as my wife? Of course it's the one from the capital. Not many people know about this, so don't spread the word. The national teacher will have lunch at my house today, and you will see what he looks like later."
Dean Wei dared not go in when he heard this, and pulled the carriage rope to go back to his academy.
"No, no, I won't join in the hustle and bustle. It just so happens that my academy has two kittens. They can't be left without someone to feed them. You'd better go back quickly." Dean Wei waved his hands desperately, not daring to meet him.
Jiang Fengjing saw the dean who came and turned back inexplicably at the door. Just as he was about to go out to ask, Feng whispered to him that it was the national teacher who came!
"Oh, it's the one who bought my comic book. I know." Unlike other people at home, Jiang Fengjing seemed calm.
After returning to his mother, he put down his school bag and went to the inner room.
To him, his sister is the greatest, no matter how big the world is.
It's a rare opportunity to have a two-day rest. Even if the national teacher comes in person, it can't disturb his interest in accompanying his sister.
Jiang Fengjing entered the house, bowed politely, handed the new painting to Ali, and then went to the kang to accompany his sister.
He also bought cherry pancakes from Qincaiju, honey melons from the snack shop, as well as candied haws made from oranges and sweet meatballs fried with purple sweet potatoes, all of which were placed in front of his sister.
There was only half a bag of glutinous rice sticks left, which his sister didn't like, and he put it next to the national teacher as a token of his appreciation.
"Please eat."
Ali was sweating a little when he saw this.
Mu Yihan, on the other hand, appreciated this very much.
After lunch, Mu Yihan touched Xiao Nuobao's head and took away the comic strip.
Before leaving, he did not forget to remind Jiang Fengjing to remember to prepare for the small imperial examination, which would be around the beginning of next spring.
Three days passed in a flash. Early in the morning, Mu Yihan went to the city to visit an old general to learn about the situation in the southern army.
Jiang Fengze and Xiao Lanyi accompanied him.
"If everything goes well, we can come back in three or four days. If not, it will take half a month." Mu Yihan rode on the horse, his eyes reluctantly fell on Xiao Nuobao's face.
Xiao Nuobao sat in Feng's arms, pulled his big hand, and smacked her, "Then Nuobao will stay at home, waiting for Uncle Mu to come back. Everything will go well. Come back as soon as possible~"
Mu Yihan's eyes curved slightly, leaned down, and kissed her little forehead in return.
"Well, wait for Uncle Mu to come back and bring you some fun things."
Four people rode four fast horses and disappeared quickly along the village entrance.
Only when he could no longer see the horse's tail did Xiao Nuobao lower his waving hands, hug Feng's neck, and prepare to go home.
Just at this moment, the officials' ox carts arrived.
They were carrying the refugees to be settled, and were sending them to various villages in batches.
Hearing the sound of the gong, the village chief and the villagers rushed to the village entrance, waiting to welcome the five new families!
