Because of Gu Jiu's words, Heng'er and Xun'er's homework doubled.
Liu Zhao was unemployed at home, which was a good opportunity for him to supervise the children's homework.
Heng Ge'er was in great pain and ran to Gu Jiu crying.
Gu Jiu patted his head and said, "Be good, finish your homework before crying."
Heng'er doesn't know yet that his current situation is all thanks to his mother.
Oh, oh, oh!
So pitiful!
Heng Ge'er didn't get any comfort from Gu Jiu, so he ran to Yu Ge'er for comfort.
Yu Ge'er is a good brother.
"Don't cry, I'll help you with your homework."
"And me." Brother Xun, who had been ignored, came out from the corner with tears in the corners of his eyes. It was obvious that he had cried secretly.
Yu Ge'er took out a handkerchief and wiped away the tears for Xun Ge'er. "Don't cry, fourth brother. I will help you with your homework. Where's your sister?"
"Sister is learning the rules from the nanny." Brother Xun sniffed, feeling aggrieved.
Niu Niu’s homework also doubled, but what she had to learn was different from that of her brothers.
Yu Ge'er touched the heads of his two younger brothers.
Seeing his two younger brothers suffering terribly from their homework, he, as the eldest brother, felt a little secretly happy in his heart.
I think he went through the same thing back then.
Now it is finally the turn of the two younger brothers to suffer.
Great!
Yu Ge'er hid his little thoughts, acted like a good brother, and helped his two younger brothers with their homework.
What a childish homework! I can’t even do it.
Are they all pig brains?
At this moment, Yu Ge'er seemed to understand how his father felt when he yelled at him for having a pig's brain.
What a pig brain!
This younger brother is so stupid.
Don't be angry, don't be angry.
He wants to be a responsible brother.
Ahhhh…
I can't control myself anymore, I really want to curse!
Why would such a simple divination be wrong?
Is your brain full of water?
From then on, Yu Ge'er began his difficult life of tutoring.
Liu Zhao took a peek and nodded secretly, feeling very relieved.
He can finally escape from the grueling life of tutoring, thank God.
It’s such a blessing to have a sensible eldest son!
Gu Jiu deeply agreed.
Why does she take the initiative to find things to do every day?
Of course, it’s to have an excuse to avoid tutoring!
She was afraid that tutoring the children would make her get angry and have a heart attack.
It’s so nice to have a man and son do it for me!
Liu Zhao and Gu Jiu, two incompetent parents, happily handed over the burden of tutoring their children to Yu Ge'er.
"What a wise decision."
"When Yu Ge'er grows up, he will definitely be a responsible and patient person."
"The good son we raised."
"I was born with a good temperament, so I inherited this temper." Gu Jiu said shamelessly.
Liu Zhao's eyes twitched. "Are you sure Yu Ge'er takes after you? Why haven't I seen you helping the child with his homework?"
"I'm very busy." Gu Jiu said as a matter of course, and rolled his eyes at Liu Zhao.
Didn't you see the account books on the table? Are you blind?
Liu Zhao was very upset and muttered, "I have always been the one tutoring the child. I was also the one tutoring Yu Ge'er when he was just starting out. Yu Ge'er is becoming more and more outstanding, and most of the credit goes to me."
Gu Jiu sneered, "Are you saying I have no merit?"
"Of course you have made a contribution. Giving birth to them is the greatest contribution."
Bang!
Gu Jiu raised his foot and kicked Liu Zhao off the couch.
Liu Zhao felt wronged. "You feel guilty, don't you? You just started to fight me when you couldn't win the argument. This is wrong. You set a very bad example for the children."
"Shut up!" Gu Jiu picked up the pillow and threw it at Liu Zhao.
Liu Zhao caught the pillow and started nagging again, "You only check on the children's homework occasionally when you have time. Is that once a month on average?"
Gu Jiu sneered, turned his head and ignored Liu Zhao.
She was angry, very angry.
Liu Zhao laughed frivolously and moved closer to Gu Jiu. "Are you really angry? I didn't expect you couldn't stand the truth."
Gu Jiu glared at him, "Can you stop showing off?"
"Of course I have to show off. It's a rare opportunity to show off in front of you, so I have to cherish this hard-earned opportunity."
Gu Jiu was speechless.
She said, "I see you've been too idle lately, with nothing to do, so you pick on me."
"You figured it out." Liu Zhao admitted generously.
Gu Jiute despised him and said, "Hurry up and find something to do."
"I've lost my job, so what else can I do?"
"Redraw a few maps so you can know where something is with your eyes closed."
Liu Zhao was stunned for a moment, "Huh, why didn't I think of drawing a map before?"
He slapped his head.
Gu Jiu complained: "As people get older, their bodies are hollowed out, and their memory is getting worse and worse."
Liu Zhao was stunned on the spot, unable to believe it. "You think I'm old? I'm in the prime of my life..."
"I am still young..."
The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
After laughing, Liu Zhao pointed at his cheek and asked, "Am I old?"
Gu Jiu shook his head. "No, I haven't aged. You haven't changed much since I first met you. The only thing that has changed is the look in your eyes."
Liu Zhao smiled proudly, "His eyes became even deeper."
Gu Jiu chuckled and complained, "It's vicissitudes, not depth."
Then she asked, "What about me? Have I changed a lot since we first met?"
Liu Zhao nodded repeatedly, "You've really changed a lot. Back then you were just a bean sprout, a yellow-haired girl. Now you're taller and more beautiful..."
A basketful of compliments, poured out for free.
Although he knew that it was exaggerated, Gu Jiu still listened happily, with a smile on his face and a beaming joy.
The two people had a wonderful business exchange and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Xu Yousi and Lin Shuping listened outside the door for a long time, laughing secretly.
People who look aloof on weekdays are actually like children in private and still need praise.
Gu Jiu touched his face and asked, "Do I have wrinkles?"
Liu Zhao moved closer and observed it carefully. "No wrinkles."
"What about the corner of the eye?"
"No. Her skin is still the same as when she was fifteen or sixteen and first married me."
Gu Jiu giggled so hard that her body shook.
"You are just as young and strong as when I first married you."
Liu Zhao hugged her and asked, "Did we both take the elixir of youth? How can we stay so young for ten years?"
Oh my god!
Xu Yousi and Lin Shuping outside the door covered their mouths and laughed secretly.
These two masters are really funny.
We praised each other for the whole morning and didn't feel bored at all.
People are almost fed up with listening to it.
The maid Ah Qing was carrying a tray with tea and snacks on it. She was going to go in and change the tea.
Lin Shuping and Xu Yousi hurriedly stopped her.
"Shh!"
He pointed inside the door and then to his ear, asking Aqing to listen along.
The three of them huddled together under the window, listening to the two masters' business boasts, laughing so hard that they couldn't stop. To avoid making any noise, they had to cover their mouths and laugh, which was very tiring.
After being praised by Liu Zhao with all kinds of sweet words all morning, Gu Jiu felt refreshed and had never felt so good before.
When I'm in a good mood, I want to do something.
She sat up and looked through the account book.
Liu Zhao took her hand and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"I have some new ideas, but they're not mature yet. I plan to visit the blacksmith's workshop in a couple of days. Do you want to come?"
Liu Zhao shook his head. "The Jinwu Guards are guarding outside, so I won't go out. lest I bring you trouble."
"Really not going? There's something new."
Liu Zhao still shook his head.
Gu Jiu felt a little sorry. "Since you don't go out, just stay at home and look after the children. You don't need to worry about His Majesty. It won't be long before His Majesty calls you back to the court to observe government affairs."
"From Father's perspective, that's not necessarily the case. He would rather we die of old age in the mansion and never leave the house."
"His Majesty is old!" Gu Jiu said solemnly, "When he realizes that his body is old, he will change his mind."
Liu Zhao raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you afraid that once he realizes his aging body, he'll become even more wary of us princes?"
"When you get old, you should always think about the future. Can His Majesty still count on the young princes in the palace? He can only count on you."
Gu Jiu scratched Liu Zhao's nose and said, "Don't be discouraged. Wait patiently for the opportunity."
Liu Zhao leaned sideways and looked at Gu Jiu. "I heard that things have been quite noisy in the palace recently? The concubines' families have been making small moves constantly."
Gu Jiu sneered, "When it comes to maternal clan power, who can compare to you, who can compare to the Pei family? No matter how many tricks those concubines' maternal families use, it's all in vain. Do you really think that just because His Majesty is dissatisfied with you, the young princes in the palace will have a chance? I'm afraid you're crazy."
Even if they take turns one by one, it will never be the turn of the little princes in the palace.
Emperor Wende had sons in his old age. By the time the little princes grew up, Emperor Wende was already very old.
Gu Jiu held Liu Zhao's hand and said, "Let them make a fuss. This will let His Majesty know that no matter whether they are big or small, they are all trouble-makers. Instead of guarding against you adult princes, it is better to discipline the few little princes in the palace."
The late emperor had already proven that placing hopes on the underage prince was a dead end.
It's time to give Emperor Wende a heavy blow so he can wake up sooner.
How can such a big country be handed over to a young prince to inherit? This is a way to bring disaster.
Liu Zhao hugged Gu Jiu's waist and said, "Sometimes I feel that my father is quite pitiful."
Gu Jiu smoothed the hair on his temples and asked, "After seeing the life His Majesty leads, do you still have any thoughts about that position?"
"Yes! Of course."
Liu Zhao openly admitted that he wanted to get that position in the palace.
"What if you get that position and end up like Your Majesty, with your wife and children alienated from you, what will you do?"
"Will you break up with me?" Liu Zhao looked at Gu Jiu with wide eyes.
He seemed very calm, but his heart was already turbulent and he was so nervous that he was a little at a loss.
Gu Jiu placed a kiss on his forehead and said, "If you don't leave me, I will stay with you."
Liu Zhao grinned, with stars twinkling in his eyes.
He hugged Gu Jiu tightly and said, "Don't worry, having you in this life is enough for me."
"When I'm old and ugly, will your legs still be able to move when you see a beautiful girl?"
"If you can't move when you see the little beauty, you can do whatever you want. Just do what you say."
"It's best not to have the opportunity to do whatever I want to you. You will regret it."
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll castrate you in the middle of the night."
Oh my god!
Liu Zhao suddenly felt a chill under his body.
