"Grandma said that I look a lot like my mother..."
Xue Zhi didn't know what to say for a moment, but Xue Shao quickly adjusted himself and laughed cheerfully: "I think I look more like my father."
Xue Zhi also laughed, "That's right, you and I seem to be carved from the same mold."
Xue Shao opened up and talked about what happened in the Duke of Qing's mansion these days, and also complained about Xue Mian in front of his father.
When Zheng Xiu brought the porridge in, she saw Xue Shao talking to his father with a beaming face and gestures: "He also brought such a big dog here to scare us, but we have Ji Lei here, and when Ji Lei rushed over, he jumped to the side in fear..."
It sounded like he was talking about Xue Mian.
After being scolded by Xue Qin, the naughty kid never came to Haoye Hall again. Only occasionally when Xue Shao went to play in the garden outside, the two would run into each other. Xue Mian was not in a good mood when he saw him, and said all sorts of things to tease him. Xue Shao was really annoyed with him and didn't want to say a word to him. He avoided him when he saw him. Fortunately, nothing happened.
Xue Zhi also listened to him seriously, nodded from time to time, and then said: "Now that Dad is back, A Mian won't dare to bully you. If he bullies you again, Dad will help you beat him up!"
Zheng Xiu said with a smile: "They are just playing around, why are you joining in the fun?"
Xue Zhi was also joking. Although Xue Mian was naughty, he was his eldest brother's child after all, and he would not attack him without knowing the truth.
Zheng Xiu put the soup bowl on the table, took out a white porcelain bowl and brought it to the bed.
"Drink it while it's hot."
Brown sugar was put in the porridge, and it smelled sweet.
Xue Zhi didn't like sweets, so he frowned.
Zheng Xiu had been with him for quite a while, and she knew his taste. "Eat it quickly, just take it as medicine."
Xue Zhi said with a bitter face, "This is much more unpalatable than medicine. Unless... you feed it to me."
Zheng Xiu spit at him again, and her face flushed. "The child is still here, what are you talking about?!"
Xue Zhi glanced at Xue Shao, who understood and covered his eyes with his hands. "Ah! I can't see anything!"
Zheng Xiu had no choice but to sit beside him with a red face and feed him with a small spoon.
Xue Zhi's eyes seemed to be glued to her face and he couldn't move away. She fed him a spoonful, and he took a bite.
After finally feeding a bowl, Zheng Xiu's face was so red that it looked like blood was dripping from his eyes. She stood up in a panic, holding the empty bowl and said, "Don't you want to eat anymore? I'll take it back to the kitchen." After saying that, she took the soup bowl and the empty bowl and walked away without waiting for Xue Zhi to answer.
Xue Zhi was in a good mood and didn't even feel the pain from the wound.
Xue Shao had already taken his hands away from his eyes, and saw his father's silly smile.
He really didn't know how many times he had seen this smile.
Alas, it comes again...
Zheng Xiu carried the things out of the inner room. Minghui and Fen Ge were waiting outside. When they saw her, they hurriedly said, "Madam, let the maids come."
Zheng Xiu felt that her heart was beating so fast that it seemed to jump out of her throat. She walked out quickly while saying, "I can do it myself. You stay here to look after the second master."
The two maids didn't say anything more.
Zheng Xiu walked quickly to the small kitchen, and Bai Zhu took the soup bowl and empty bowl.
Bai Zhu saw her red face and asked worriedly: "Madam, why is your face so red? Are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to call a doctor?"
Zheng Xiu said hurriedly: "No. It's just that the room is a little hot. I, I will wash my face with cold water."
