Chapter 155
185
Cheng Yeran heard that Yuanbao was going to his deceased son's farm to go fishing. He saw that the weather had been good recently and Shen Yuntang's health had recovered well. The child was three months old. Apart from doing some simple work, Shen Yuntang just took care of the child at home. He also wanted to take Shen Yuntang out to relax.
The child was still young, so he didn't take them out. They went together. He also said to Shen Yuntang: "When the child grows up, we won't have the opportunity to go out and play by ourselves. He will follow us wherever we go."
He hugged Shen Yuntang's waist aggrievedly: "This may be the last time we go out for an outing alone. No, it seems that we have never gone on an outing since we got together. I want to go, I want to go."
Xingxing, who was standing by, couldn't help but show a look of contempt when he saw that his father was even more childish than him, a three-month-old child.
"Wouldn't it be more lively if our family of three went out?" Shen Yuntang saw that he was determined to spend time alone together, so he rubbed his head helplessly, "Okay, I'll send someone to talk to Liu Ya and ask her to take us along."
"That's great!" Cheng Yeran was satisfied. He held Shen Yuntang's face and kissed him hard. After the kiss, he found Xingxing was looking at them. He picked Xingxing up and said, "Do you want Daddy to kiss you too? Daddy will kiss you right now."
As he said this, he kissed Xingxing despite her disgusted and rejecting look.
"You kissed him so hard that his face turned red." Shen Yuntang quickly held the child in his arms, "You kissed him so hard that his face turned red."
At first, Cheng Yeran felt that children were fragile and was afraid to touch them. Later, he found that hugging and kissing would not kill the child, so he would hug the child and kiss him from time to time.
But he disagreed with anyone other than him and Shen Yuntang wanting to kiss the child.
When other people came to their house to look after the child, he would stare at them as if those people would steal his child away.
Shen Yuntang smiled and asked if he was too nervous, and Cheng Yeran said he was afraid that they might have germs.
When Shen Yuntang heard the word "germs", he felt it was very serious and watched nervously from the side. Except for familiar people like Liu Ya who were allowed to come in to see the child, no one else was allowed to enter the house. He often used the excuse that the child was sleeping to refuse other people from visiting the child.
Later, it developed to the point that when Cheng Yeran came home without changing clothes, he would not let Cheng Yeran hold the child.
"My parents have always said that they want us to have a child. When the child is older, we can bring him home when we have time. They will definitely be very happy." Shen Yuntang thought that his third brother's wife was also pregnant. Or, after his child was born, he could bring his parents to the capital so that they could see their grandchildren.
When Cheng Yeran said he wanted to go on a picnic, Shen Yuntang thought of the picnic scenes in the movies he had watched, and specially prepared a lot of food and made a lot of sandwiches. He had seen in the movies that sandwiches were always made for picnics, and he cooked them himself without asking the servants to do it.
They planned to travel for two days this time. Liu Ya heard that Shen Yuntang was going to go with them, so she thought it would be more lively with more people, so she called Lin Yu as well.
Lin Yu and the young general's wedding date is approaching. Originally, they were not allowed to meet each other before getting married, but the two of them had long ignored this rule. Except for not living together at night, they had already lived the life of an old married couple.
The young general saw that Lin Yu had been busy with shop matters every day since arriving in the capital. The only time they went out together was to have dinner at Jinyulou. That dining experience was not a very pleasant one as it was ruined by Zhao Yanlin.
This time, when Lin Yu went to the manor where his son died, he would never meet Zhao Yanlin. He readily agreed and told Lin Yu that he could just take his carriage that day. After arriving at the manor, there was a lot of open space and he could take Lin Yu with him on horseback.
So their fishing team became larger and larger. On the day of departure, Yang Shiming went to pick up Yuanbao, but found that Yuanbao had brought the wild dog with him as well. Moreover, the fourth brother said that he would pull the cart and take them along, so Yang Shiming could just get on their car.
However, Yang Shiming brought a lot of fishing gear this time, so he could only put them on his own carriage and leave the city with them in a separate carriage.
The other families also had one carriage per person, and the team looked quite long as they marched out of the city in a mighty procession, attracting quite a few onlookers.
Before leaving, the prince specifically inquired about what kind of carriage the young general used, and he insisted on pulling out the largest and most luxurious carriage in the mansion and riding in it.
Liu Ya sat in the luxurious carriage, watching the prince making faces at the young general in another carriage. She felt that she didn't need to have a child at all, as she already had one. "Don't be so childish."
"He usually does everything better than me, so I have to be better than him." The prince said angrily, "Because when he was a child, he always did everything better than me, and I was often beaten by my father. He and I are irreconcilable."
Liu Ya: "...Even if you use a more luxurious carriage than him, it cannot change the fact that he is better than you."
“How can you
Talk about
How is he better than me when he says that? Am I not excellent? "The prince cried and pulled Liu Ya's sleeves back and forth, like a child having a tantrum.
"You should sit with my cousin's husband, you two can play together." Liu Ya remembered that Cheng Yeran was always so childish, but Cheng Yeran was much more capable than the prince. He only showed his childish side when facing his cousin at home, but he was very mature and capable when he was outside. The prince could not compare to this, and was a complete idiot.
The prince thought Liu Ya was praising him for being as good as Master Cheng, and he was extremely happy. He pretended to be reserved and asked Liu Ya: "Am I really that good?"
Willow Bud: “…”
The prince was happy all the way, and after getting off the car, he still had a happy smile on his face. When he saw Shao Hui, he hugged Liu Ya and showed off in front of Shao Hui, "My husband is much more beautiful than your husband."
He looked like he deserved a beating with an expression that said "I won". Shao Hui really wanted to beat him up, but he had to pretend to be mature and steady in front of Lin Yu. He didn't want to fight with a fool like the prince, as it would easily lower his status.
He smiled and said to the prince: "Your husband has his own merits, and my husband has his own merits. Don't compare them. This will make people think you are trying to sow discord between their friends."
Liu Ya also secretly pinched the prince and whispered in his ear: "Wait until we get back and see how I deal with you."
The prince was so frightened that he immediately clamped his buttocks together and trembled with fear. He felt aggrieved, "How did I try to sow discord between them? I told the truth. It was you who tried to sow discord between me and my husband! Woo woo woo, you are a bad person, you have been bad since you were a child!"
Everyone entered the manor amid the prince's noise. Everyone first went to their own rooms to put their things away, and then went to the river, some to fish, some to have a picnic.
Cheng Yeran brought an umbrella to Shen Yuntang to help him block the sun, and supported Shen Yuntang with his other hand. The servants following behind him were holding the picnic food they had prepared today.
The two of them chose a good spot, spread out a blanket, arranged their things, and sat there, enjoying the scenery while eating. They rarely had such a pleasant time, and Shen Yuntang felt very comfortable. "Should we also buy a manor? We can stay in the manor for a while from time to time?"
"Sure. When you have a child in the future, you can bring him out to play. You can teach him to ride a horse and shoot arrows. I heard there is a hunting ground nearby where you can go hunting." Cheng Yeran had heard about hunting here before, so he thought of bringing his child here to play. But at that time he thought they had a little girl. Now she has grown into a boy, and a taciturn boy at that. All his fantasies and expectations about children have been shattered.
He felt that going out hunting with Xingxing must be like attending a class with a teacher, but Xingxing was also his child, and he would like him no matter what kind of personality he had. He was not a god, and not everything in the world would be under his command. He would not hate Xingxing just because of his cold personality, and he would not, like some parents, force his children to become lively and cause them to develop mental illnesses. No matter what kind of personality his children had, they were excellent in his heart.
Two people were having a picnic by the river, Liu Ya and the prince were flying kites over there, and Lin Yu and Shao Hui were walking away on horses. It must be Shao Hui who was teaching Lin Yu how to ride a horse.
Yuanbao and Yang Shiming were sitting by the river fishing. Wild Dog was squatting beside Yuanbao, looking at the water, as if expecting a fish to bite. Fourth brother was sitting on the other side of Yuanbao, fanning him, holding an umbrella for him, and feeding him food from time to time.
Yuanbao seemed to be used to being taken care of by his fourth brother. When he fed him, he would just open his mouth and eat without even turning his head. However, his fourth brother did not get angry. Instead, he thought that this was how it should be.
Cheng Yeran and Shen Yuntang couldn't help but look in the direction of Yuanbao, "I didn't expect that the boy Yang Shiming likes is actually Yuanbao."
"I'm afraid he has developed feelings for his paintings over the years." Shen Yuntang said as he looked at his fourth brother. Ever since he knew that Yang Shiming would also fall in love with another man, he felt something was not right with his fourth brother. "Fourth brother has never been so nice to others, not even to me, his own brother. Do you think he will be nice to Yuanbao..."
"Now that you mention it, it does seem a bit like them..." Cheng Yeran calculated the age of his fourth brother. He was one year older than Shen Yuntang. Shen Yuntang already had a child, and the other three brothers were also married with children. Only the fourth brother was left single.
Before, they said they wanted to find a marriage for the fourth brother, but the fourth brother had always refused. But now, Yuanbao took the initiative to contact Yang Shiming, and they are likely to be together. The fourth brother probably knows this, but he still stays by Yuanbao's side to take care of him. I don't know what he thinks.
"Fourth brother has his own plans. Even if we ask him, he won't tell us, let alone listen to us. He will solve it himself. Let's not worry about it." Cheng Yeran lay on the blanket and looked at the sky. "You come and lie down too. It's so comfortable."
Shen Yuntang lay beside him, looking at the sky, and recalled his childhood when he would go up the mountain to chop firewood and would find a big rock to lie on and look at the sky.
It had been a long time since he had done anything like this and wasted time without any burden. Before he knew it, he fell asleep.
When he woke up again, it was already afternoon. He had been resting his head on his arms when he fell asleep just now, but now he was lying on Cheng Yeran's legs, covered with clothes.
He slowly got up and looked at the noise in the distance, "What are they playing?"
Cheng Yeran helped him up. "Shao Hui and Lin Yu went to the woods just now and brought out a deer. Yuan Bao and his friends also caught a bucket of fish in the afternoon. They plan to make a bonfire and barbecue in the evening."
