Chapter 943 Mother, can you please say something auspicious?
"Come on, don't bully him. Now he'll have to rinse his mouth for several days straight." Dabao glared at Sibao and said, "Hurry up and untie that fox of yours, or he'll fall out of his arse."
Speaking of the fox, Sibao slapped his head and said, "Yeah, don't hurt this little thing."
After saying this, he went to free the fox.
"Nephew Hongzhou, I'm going to sleep for a while." Seventeen glanced at Dabao again, then immediately turned around and got into the carriage following behind.
Sibao slumped over and said, "Brother, look how scared you are."
Dabao: “…”
"Are you all back? Did you offend your third brother again?"
Wenjiu yawned at this moment, then pulled aside the curtain and looked outside.
"Mother, are you awake?"
Sibao said in surprise, and immediately swung the fox to show Wenjiu: "Look, mother, is it beautiful?"
Wen Jiu took a look and said, "It looks good."
Sibao simply threw the fox to the servant: "Watch it carefully."
Then he jumped onto the carriage and said, "Mother, Third Brother is such a jerk! He even called you up to complain. It's obvious that he dislikes me, but I was just being kind and gave him a chicken leg."
"Why did your third brother call me? I didn't sleep well at all. You."
"Don't listen to him, mother." Dabao had also boarded the carriage. "Mother, we got some big cherries this morning from somewhere in the Royal Palace. My son and I thought they were good, so we shamelessly brought you two baskets. They're at their peak flavor, so come and try some."
Erbao followed behind and put down the cherries: "Mother, they have all been washed."
He took a sip of the warm wine. "Hmm, it tastes really good. You're in such a hurry to return to Beijing. Did something happen? I just received the letter sent by Jiu Ye and returned. I have important trade overseas now, so I can't leave him. Why are you back now?"
As soon as these words came out, the three brothers paused for a moment.
"Mother, what's the matter? Uncle Jiu hasn't been home for over two years. I'm sure the Queen misses him too." Dabao said with a smile, "Mother, does your headache hurt? Let me give it to you."
"Oh, yes, my father also said that women will have leg cramps when they are pregnant. Let me massage them for you." Sibao immediately came over with a smile.
Erbao looked at this, then looked at that, and said seriously: "Then my son will help me pinch this one..."
"Need not!"
"Need not!"
Before Wenjiu could say anything, Dabao and Sibao shouted out in unison.
Wen Jiu: "Well...Actually, Erbao can give it a try."
Erbao frowned: "Trust me, I've practiced."
Sibao: "...Yes, you have practiced it. Last time you practiced on me, you broke my leg. Luckily, my mother had some magic medicine, otherwise, I would still be limping now."
Dabao: "It was okay when they used me for practice, except they took off my arm."
Erbao frowned and said, "Then I pinched it for my father-in-law once, and he praised me for my excellent pinching."
Sanbao, who had been gargling frantically, spat out a mouthful of water upon hearing this. "I was wondering why Ama didn't dare go to E'ma's yard during that time and insisted on competing with me for the study! I even suspected that Ama had a mistress outside, and I searched for her extensively but to no avail. Later, Uncle Qi said that Ama seemed to have met a formidable enemy in life and was beaten black and blue. So, you're the culprit."
Erbao: "...Mother, look at them, none of them believe me."
Wen Jiu silently touched the head of his second son and said, "Good son, I only have one child. If you pinch her, she will be gone. Be good, I won't pinch you. Come, have some fruit."
After saying that, Wenjiu took a fruit and put it into his second son's mouth with a smile.
Erbao: “…”
"Pfft..." Liusu looked at it and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Upon returning, Liusu saw the mother and her children all staring at her. She coughed softly and said, "Well, we're pretty fast, aren't we? It looks like we'll be back home in less than two hours."
Wen Jiu also laughed: "Yes, it's a good time to go back now and see the little kid in the Shanzha family. You don't know yet, do you? Your aunt Shanzha has two more sons."
"Wow, Buyu Anda is so amazing." Sibao smacked his lips in amazement.
"Nonsense, you have no scruples in front of mother." Dabao frowned when he heard it.
Wenjiu also knocked Sibao on the forehead: "You deserve to be scolded, don't you?"
"Tell Duanfang and Duanzheng about this later, son. I'm sure they'll be very happy to know," Dabao said. Duanfang and Duanzheng were Buyu and Shanzha's eldest and second sons, both skilled in martial arts. They had practically grown up with Dabao and the others, and now served Dabao.
"That's right." Wen Jiu continued, "It's just right. The old ancestor went back early two days ago and didn't know I was pregnant again. I'll go back and tell her the good news. I'm sure she will be very happy."
After these words were spoken, Dabao and the others looked at each other, and Dabao smiled and said, "Of course. The ancestors have been looking forward to this for a long time."
I talked and laughed with my sons along the way, and it seemed like we arrived in the blink of an eye.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Wenjiu was surrounded by his sons and walked out.
Dabao: "Mother, be careful."
Erbao: "Yes, slow down."
Sibao: "Goodbye, let your son carry you."
Sanbao: "Don't let your mother fall down because of your impulsive look. I'll do it for her."
Wen Jiu glanced at the children and was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "Actually, mother can walk on her own. My sons, mother is telling you that although pregnancy is important, it is not paralysis..."
Dabao: "...Mother, please say something auspicious."
"Oh, you are so lucky, my dear sister. These children are so filial. I envy them so much. They are not like my son, who is always out front doing errands and is rarely around. I'm not saying this to you, but if I were you, for the sake of the children, I would let them focus on the things ahead. What could be more important than their future? Is it so precious? Do I need someone to help me get off the car?"
The Third Lady happened to be returning home. She took a look as she passed by and couldn't help but run out of the carriage.
"Third Lady is absolutely right. I've always been envied." Wen Jiu smiled and continued, "Having so many sons is like this. They always worry about me. Here, there's always someone by my side. Unlike you, Third Sister-in-law, you have so much peace and quiet."
"Mother, be careful, the sun is too strong. Don't be like Third Aunt. It would be bad if you get sunburned." Sanbao said, and suddenly slapped his mouth: "Oh, I said the wrong thing. Even if Third Aunt doesn't have my brother to help hold the umbrella, I still have my servant to help. It's good, it's good."
"You...you guys!" The Third Lady glared angrily. "You're always hanging around my mother's children. What kind of future do you have? I'm just saying these kind words. Just stop."
Wen Jiu jumped down from the carriage himself, chin up, and said, "My son hasn't made much progress. In the last teaching exam, he only took first place among the emperor's grandchildren. Oh, it seems my son was second, and third as well. By the way, Third Sister-in-law, your family..."
"Warm the wine!" The Third Lady glared in anger.
But looking at the fourth brother behind Wen Jiu, who was looking at his sons who were tall and strong and not easy to mess with, he couldn't say a word after all. He flicked his sleeves and said, "Don't be so proud. Let's..."
"We're not done yet, are we?" Wen Jiu rubbed his ears. "I've got calluses on my ears from hearing you say that. Can't you change your words?"
Ever since Sibao knocked out one of her son Hongqing's front teeth, she and the Third Lady have been at odds with each other.
"Hey? Sibao! You're back!"
Hongqing waited for a long time for his mother to come back, but she didn't see him, so he went out to meet her. When he saw Sibao, his eyes lit up immediately. He jumped off his horse and ran towards her.
The Third Lady was so angry that her lungs were about to explode, and when she saw her son laughing like that, she suddenly felt sick all over.
"Sibao, come back here!"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch? Mom, it hurts! Be gentle." Hong Qing immediately covered his ears.
"Hongqing, come and have dinner with us later." Wenjiu smiled when he saw Hongqing. This child was much more likable than the Third Lady.
"Hey, thank you Auntie Xiao Si, I'll be there soon. Sibao, wait for me..."
"Wait! What are you waiting for! You good-for-nothing! You haven't even knocked out your front teeth yet and you're still looking for someone. If you come again, I'll tear your skin off!"
"Mother, it hurts, please be gentle. Hasn't the tooth grown out yet? How come you still remember this?"
"You mean I hold a grudge?"
"Ah, isn't it?"
"Hey, I'm going to skin you alive!"
