Wishing You Eternal Happiness - Chapter 103

Ci’er’s eyes were round and round, looking at Jiafu, waiting for her mother’s answer.

Jia Fu said: “The capital is very far away from us, it takes many days to get there. There is a big house in the city, the roof is covered with glazed tiles, the sun shines, it will shine, and the emperor lives. Inside. He is in charge of the people and affairs of the world, unlike ordinary people. It is his duty to make clothes for him on his birthday. Your father…”

She was speechless for a while, still thinking about how to explain to her son, Ci’er’s eyes lit up: “I see, Daddy feels sorry for her hard work, so I’m not happy!”

Jiafu spent a few nights trying to make the birthday clothes. Pei Youan was really distressed and increasingly unhappy.

Ci’er is only three years old. She doesn’t talk a lot on weekdays, but she is very clever. Jiafu suspects that Pei Youan was like a son when he was young. She is very difficult to fool. She is struggling with how to answer his father’s unhappy question. The son asked and answered himself, he was relieved, and was about to turn the topic off, when he heard a sound of footsteps at the door, Pei Youan came in.

Ci’er was originally leaning in Jiafu’s arms, and seeing her father coming, she hurriedly got up and called Daddy. Pei Youan nodded, sat next to him, and asked him about his morning exercises. Ci’er sat upright with a small body, answering one by one, with a tender voice, looking at his father’s expression, but with extreme earnestness.

Pei Youan said: “Daddy just went to see the arrow target. Ci’er did a good job and not only shot 20 arrows. It’s just that Ci’er has just started to learn, don’t have to be too much, just shoot 20 arrows with your heart. But, remember?”

Ci’er admires his father extremely. In the eyes of this little boy, this man is omnipotent, and is as impressive as a mountain. After being praised, his eyes showed joy, and he nodded vigorously.

Pei Youan smiled, touched his son’s little head, and turned over the book when he went to a bookshelf against the wall.

Jiafu took his son back and continued to feed him snacks. The spoon was brought to his mouth. Ci’er put it in his mouth and swallowed it. Seeing her mother continued to feed herself, she looked a little bit embarrassed and peeked at his father’s back. , Leaning to Gaffer’s ear, whispered softly: “Mother, my hands are not sore. I will eat it myself. Daddy said, Ci’er is three years old and I want to eat by myself…”

Gaffer knew that his hands were sore in archery practice, so he fed him personally. Seeing his son finished speaking, he reached out and asked for a spoon, so he had to pass it over.

Ci’er scooped up the small snacks in the bowl by herself, opened her mouth and ate big mouthfuls. There was nothing left, and there was some juice on her mouth, and Jia Fu wiped his mouth for him.

Pei Youan came over and asked Cui Yinshui to lead his son out.

Jiafu knew that he should have something to say to himself, so he did not object, helped Ci’er put on his shoes, added a thick little cloak outside, watched Cui Yinshui lead him out, and closed the door. Then he turned his head and complained: “Ci’er is only three years old. Look at you for detaining him. When you come, you are like a little master. I just feed him a bite of food, and he is afraid that you will say that he has you! Are you such a father?”

Pei Youan smiled, sat next to Jiafu, and gently tapped her head with a book: “How a kind mother is to lose! It’s enough to spoil him with you, I know it in my heart.” Then, he glanced at Ci’er. The remaining empty bowl held her to her lap: “I am hungry too. You only have Tzu’er in your eyes and don’t care about me anymore! I have been in for so long, and you just feed your son for dinner, but you don’t even listen to you asking me. Are you hungry?”

Jiafu glanced at him, pushed him away, and said: “Yes, yes, I am not good. You wait, Master Pei, I will get you some food. If your hands are sore, it’s a big deal. Hey you……”

She was about to climb down from his legs before she twisted her body, and her waist was held by him. With an oops, she was slumped on the beauty bed under her.

Pei Youan pressed it down.

“Beautiful and delicious. I will eat you and it will be good…”

Gaffer was suppressed by him, and after struggling a few times, he was softened.

After a long while, Pei Youan finally let go of her and said something serious. After the opening of the Spring Festival tomorrow, he will leave for a spring tour on the border.

The weather is getting warmer, in order to prevent the Hu people from taking advantage of the spring warmth, he will personally inspect the border at this time of the year. There are several states under Longyou rule, and the border is tortuous and long. It takes at least half a month to go back and forth.

Sure enough, when Jia Fu asked, he was very reluctant to know that he would be back in the middle of next month, but he also knew that this was his duty. Pei Youan didn’t go out again during the day, and stayed in the house all the time, accompanied by Jia Fu and his son.

In the evening, Pei Youan was at his desk in front of the lamp, Jiafu bathed Ci’er, took his son to sit on the couch, took out the chess box, and played chess with him.

This chess set is a toy for the third birthday that Pei Youan gave to his son. There are thirty-two chess pieces, two horse-riding generals, two lions, four horse-drawn chariots, four horses, four camels, and sixteen sitting villains serving as soldiers, all for use Carved out of wood, lifelike, simulating the battle between the two sides. Ci’er likes it very much. When the baby keeps it, after learning the rules from her father, she becomes fascinated and takes it out every day to play. Sometimes Jiafu and Cui Yinshui are with him, sometimes they play alone, sitting one or two by themselves. At the time, if it hadn’t been for Jia Fu to interrupt, he wouldn’t even eat food. At the beginning, Jiafu accompanied his son and could win him.

After a while, there was something going on in the house, Jiafu was called away by Sandalwood, so he asked Pei Youan to act for himself for a while, and then asked him to send his son to bed first if he didn’t return by Xu Shizhong.

Pei Youan put down the Chinese tablet, walked over, got on the couch, and sat on the opposite side.

Because of his busy schedule, Pei Youan hasn’t been with him recently, except for the first two days, he took the time to teach his son and got off with him a few times. Ci’er looked a little excited. She knelt on the couch with her small body straight and staring at the chessboard with serious eyes, just like everyone was a master.

Pei Youan walked through a game with his son, and it was almost time for Jiafu to tell him to go to bed. When he asked him to go back to the house to sleep, he saw that his son seemed to be still not satisfied. Halfway down, the former assistant named Yang is now used by Pei Youan. He came to ask him something. Pei Youan put down the chess pieces and called his son, etc., and went out by himself. After a while, he came back and found that his son was already lying on the chessboard. Sleeping on the table, a small hand still held the chess piece of the riding general tightly.

Pei Youan removed the chess piece in his son’s hand, picked him up, and sent him to the small bedroom next door, put his son on the bed, gently took off his coat, covered him with the quilt, was about to go out, and suddenly heard behind him There was a vague and childish voice: “I still want to play chess with Daddy, and I haven’t finished playing yet—”

Pei Youan turned his head and saw his son trying to open his sleepy eyes, rubbing his eyes, as if he was still getting up, and came back hurriedly, lying on his side next to him, patted his back lightly: “Zi’er sleeps well. That’s it. I remembered the game of chess, and I will accompany you to finish it next time.”

Ci’er closed her eyes, and after a while, opened her eyes again, and whispered, “Don’t worry, Ci’er will be with your mother.”

Pei Youan met his son’s bright eyes, a warm current slowly gushed in his heart, lowered his head and gently kissed his son’s forehead-in front of his son, he was always restrained as a father. From the time she can remember, Ci’er only remembers that her mother always loved to kiss her face, but her father never kissed him. Tonight was really the first time, and she couldn’t help but feel happy and shy, with her little head leaning against her. On his father’s shoulder, he didn’t move.

Pei Youan kissed her son’s forehead and said softly: “Your mother is crying, so Dad gave her mother to Ci’er. Ci’er is not around. Ci’er should make her happy and don’t let her cry.”

Ci’er hummed: “Ci’er will protect her mother and not let her cry.”

Pei Youan smiled, brought his son’s small body closer to him, patted his back lightly, and coaxed: “Go to sleep.”

Ci’er closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep in her father’s arms.

Pei Youan stared at the tender face of his son who had fallen asleep, and for a moment, he was in a daze, before returning to his senses, he got off the bed with his hands and feet lightly.

The next day, Pei Youan left the Jiedu Envoy’s mansion with a team of soldiers, and left Suye City, leaving Yang Yun and two other capable lieutenants in the city to maintain the Spring Festival order and protect the mansion.

It will take a long time for her husband to go back. Jiafu is naturally reluctant to give up, but this is not the first time, thinking that more than half a month will pass soon, not to mention that there is a son around him who wants her to take care of, and he will soon Dispelled the loss in my heart. The next day, I accompanied my son to practice calligraphy in the room, and finished a piece of paper. Cui Yinshui, who was waiting by the side, praised the little son for writing well.

Three years ago, Jiafu only promised to keep Cui Yinshui until the warmth of spring, but later gave birth to Ci’er. During that time, Pei Youan had been busy taking care of Jiafu’s body and had no time to pay attention to Cui Yinshui. Cui Yinshui was rushing to do things inside and out. In the warm spring season, he begged in every possible way, and he was almost dead. Jiafu couldn’t bear to force him away. Pei Youan couldn’t help her. In addition, Cui Yinshui’s face was as thick as a city wall. Pei Youan reluctantly, finally opened With only one eye closed, that’s how he stayed.

The **** took care of Ci’er very well, and Jiafu also saw it. He was really kind to Ci’er, and over time, he didn’t notice any changes in him. Gradually, he stopped. Prevent him from approaching his son. Now that three years have passed, Cui Yinshui has long since become Ci’er’s personal companion.

“Mother, it’s so lively outside. I have finished writing and want to go out and play for a while, okay?” Ci’er pleaded with Jiafu.

Seeing her son staring at herself eagerly, Jiafu thought that the city would be so lively in the past half a month at the end of the year. On weekdays, out of the city, the wilderness is yellow in summer, and the winter is icy and snowy, how could she bear to refuse her son, so he nodded and agreed.

Ci’er jumped down from the chair, hopped around, and was overjoyed. Cui Yinshui hurriedly prepared the carriage. Jiafu called Sandalwood Muxiang and Ding Ma, who followed over to work. Several people heard that they were going to the market. They were all happily and changed their clothes. Because Yang Yun was not in the house today, Jiafu called two other guards to accompany him. The group went out of Jiedu’s mansion and went to the market. Little things, Jiafu took Ci’er to see the conjurer again, and Fang Xing returned home at noon.

On the way back, Jiafu took Ci’er in the carriage, accompanied by Cui Yinshui.

Ci’eryi is still not exhausted, especially the conjure that the other party saw, and she never forgets, leaning in Jiafu’s arms and saying: “Mother, Cui Baner said, the market in the capital is much more lively than ours here, every day, and said The tricks there can turn into birds flying in the sky and fish swimming in the water. Mother, when shall we let Dad take us to the capital? I want to see what the capital looks like.”

Jiafu glanced at Cui Yinshui.

Cui Yinshui said with a smile: “I just said a few words casually, and the little boy took care of it…”

Jiafu hugged her son and sat on her lap: “In the future, your father will have time to take you to the capital, okay?”

Ci’er nodded with a look of yearning, and the group returned to the Jiedu Mansion. After spending a meal, Jiafu felt a little tired after shopping for a long time. Seeing that Ci’er was still playing with toys bought from the market, she was not sleepy at all, so she told Cui Yinshui to take him to play, and she went back to the room and squinted for a while. Eyes. After waking up, he called for sandalwood, and sandalwood came in to help her comb her hair. Seeing her strange expression, Jia Fu stopped talking and asked.

Sandalwood whispered: “In the afternoon, a man from the capital suddenly came to the palace, that is, Grandpa Li in the palace. I want to call Madam. Grandpa Li would not let me let my wife rest. People are still there now. It’s outside.”

“Grandpa Li? Li Yuangui?”

Gaffer was taken aback.

“Yes. Cui Yinshui called him godfather.”

Gaffer’s heart thumped, her hair standing straight.

Unexpectedly, the emperor’s longevity was imminent, and Li Yuangui came to him at this time and hurriedly asked his son. After learning that Cui Yinshui had taken Ci’er to the front, he was flustered and asked Sandalwood to comb his hair and hurriedly change the pieces. He walked forward quickly, stepped into the front hall, and actually saw Li Yuangui standing there, wearing ordinary clothes, bending over, talking to his son, not knowing what he said, a respectful pair , Accompanied by Cui Yinshui.

Seeing that his son was still there, Jiafu sighed in relief and hurriedly called. Ci’er turned her head and saw her mother coming. She ran over quickly, took Jiafu’s hand and pointed at Li Yuangui and said, “Mother, he said He knows father and mother. He also said that Ci’er has a grandfather who lives in the big house in the capital that Niang said. The grandfather wants Ci’er very much, and he is still sick. He wants to take Ci’er to see the grandfather.”

“Mother, is what he said is true? Ci’er really has a grandfather in the capital?”

Ci’er looked up at Jiafu and asked.

Jiafu looked up and saw Li Yuangui walking towards him with a smile on his face, hugged his son, and took a few steps back quickly. Suddenly saw his son look confused and realized that he should be aware of his nervousness and was afraid to scare him. , Settled down, squatted down, smiled and said: “Mother and him want to say a few words, Ci’er will go back to the room with Aunt Tanxiang, and wait for the next mother to find you, okay?” Son.

Ci’er nodded, looked back at Li Yuangui again, and went back three steps.

“Grandpa Li, why are you here?”

As soon as Ci’er left, Jiafu didn’t care about the etiquette. She was really frightened by what her son had just said, so she asked.

Li Yuangui saw Jiafu with a respectful face, and said, “Madam, don’t worry too much. The purpose of the slave and maid’s visit is just as the little son said. Long live and fifty thousand years are coming, and I miss the little son very much, so I sent it away. I am a slave and maid, and I want to ask the wife to bring the young man into Beijing. If the wife is convenient, can I leave on the road today? Madam, don’t worry, the caring on the road has been arranged properly. Everything is suitable for the wife and the young man.”

Jiafu glanced at Cui Yinshui, and Cui Yinshui hurriedly lowered his eyelids, drooping his head, not daring to look at her.

Jia Fu said: “I must know that there will be a benevolent father.”

Li Yuangui’s expression became more respectful, and he bowed and said: “Master Pei has something to do, so I am afraid that there will be no time to clone. Madam rest assured, when Master Pei finishes his side tour, the servants will inform Master Pei and the young master where they are going.”

Gaffer’s heart was bright.

Li Yuangui just counted Pei Youan’s absence, so he came directly to “invite” himself and his son to Beijing. Even if Pei Youan didn’t happen to be on the sidelines this time, he would definitely use other methods to transfer others away.

“Grandpa Li, Ci’er’s father is not here, I’m afraid it will be inconvenient for me to enter Beijing with Ci’er.”

Jiafu stared at the big **** opposite, said.

Li Yuangui bowed again: “Long live I really miss the little son. Please don’t embarrass the slave and maidservant.”

The emperor didn’t let Li Yuangui directly take out an imperial decree, perhaps it was polite enough for him.

Gaffer was silent for a moment, and said: “I understand. Father-in-law arrange it.”

Li Yuangui breathed a sigh of relief, showing gratitude: “Thank you, Madam for your understanding.”

Jiafu took Ci’er into the carriage and said that he would bring him to Beijing first, and he would follow his father when he came back.

Only then did Ci’er feel relieved, tightly holding the chess box brought out in her arms, and said: “Mother, when I see Grandpa Emperor, I will teach him to play chess, and his illness will get better.”

Gaffer looked at his son’s innocent eyes, suppressed the chaos in his heart, smiled slightly, and nodded.
