Chapter 157 Leaving Yangliu Village
Three days later, Yangliu Village.
A horse-drawn carriage took advantage of the gentle morning sunshine and slowly headed towards Nan'an County.
At the entrance of the village stood many men, women, young and old who had heard the news. They gradually dispersed only after the carriage disappeared from their sight.
In the carriage, little Ruixue leaned against the window, and only sat back down when she could no longer see the village. With a shrewd sigh, she asked, "Uncle Ye, why don't you come home with us?"
The Uncle Ye that the little guy mentioned was Brother Ergou, who was still thinking about Baoger when he left. He was also Xiao Ye that Xiao Li met not long ago.
The young boy has already vaguely understood some things. These days, he often comes to the Xiao family's old house to ask Xiao Li for advice. After a few visits, the little guys also know him.
Perhaps because they were all brothers, Xiao Ruixue often heard her uncle mention Uncle Ye at home, so she was the closest to Xiao Ye among the three children, and when she left, she even wanted to let her uncle take him home.
Hearing this, Xiao Li, who was driving the car, couldn't help but feel a headache, "Baby, do you like this kid Xiao Ye very much?"
"Uncle likes it!" Little Ruixue is small, but she knows what she is talking about. "Uncle likes it, and the baby likes it too!"
Xiao Li understood, and felt even more helpless. That boy hadn't put much effort into his precious little brother, but he had already won the favor of half of the family. If he came to propose marriage in the future...
Tsk, that kid isn't so likable anymore.
Lu Yuan leaned against the carriage and gently rubbed Xiao Ruixue's head when she heard that. She looked at him unhappily and said, "Don't say these things carelessly in the future. If they get out, your uncle's reputation will be ruined. Do you understand?"
Although their family has become very open-minded under the influence of their husband, the world today is not friendly to women and boys, and the children cannot live under their wings all their lives.
Even if they are willing to protect their children for their entire lives, their mortal bodies will eventually age and die, and they may not be able to live that long.
Since children will always grow up and have to go out and interact with other people and environments, even if parents spoil their children, they should tell them little by little about the things they should pay attention to in life, so that they can slowly develop habits, so as to avoid sudden changes in environment in the future and not getting used to it, or even bringing disaster to themselves.
Little Ruixue's greatest strength is her obedience. Even if she doesn't understand, she still nods and says "OK" obediently, then asks him, "Little Daddy, why?"
Not only was Xiao Ruixue curious, but Xiao Jingnian also looked at him in confusion, not understanding why he could say it at home but not here.
The one who seemed to understand a little bit was actually little Ruijing. The little guy frowned slightly and patted his brothers' heads in a soothing manner. "Because my reputation is very important, I can't say anything careless."
Hearing this, Lu Yuan showed a look of surprise. Holding little Ruijing's face, she looked at him in shock, "Jing'er, who told you that?"
Little Ruijing thought for a moment, "Daddy said it, Little Daddy said it, Third Grandpa and Third Uncle also said it, Great Grandpa and Great Grandma also said it."
Lu Yuan: “…” That’s good, you’ve even signed up.
Thinking of the attitude of her family towards her children, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel helpless and fortunate.
I am so lucky to have met such a good husband and family.
He took his hand back and looked at the three little guys sitting in a row next to him. He explained to them seriously, "Jing'er is right, but it's not just that. For you, innocence is one of the most important things in life, just like a scholar cares about his reputation.
Because of your bad reputation, you can’t do many things, or if you do, others will think it’s not possible, not allowed, or shouldn’t be done. Others will laugh at you and suppress you…”
Lu Yuan explained the theory and gave specific examples. Although he did not make them fully understand why they should attach so much importance to reputation, he at least let them know that reputation is a very important thing. As long as they still live in this place, they cannot ignore it.
Little Ruijing and Little Jingnian were fine. They both looked like they had memorized what they heard. Only the kind-hearted little Ruixue tilted her head and looked at him innocently, "Little Daddy, when will Uncle Ye come back to our house?"
Lu Yuan: “…” So it’s all in vain?
After staring at his youngest son for a while, he sighed deeply, "Baby, you really are..."
"What is it?" Little Ruixue opened her big, ignorant eyes and waited for him to continue speaking with curiosity.
Lu Yuan finally understood why Xiao Li sometimes showed a helpless expression. He also felt helpless at this moment.
If he doesn’t understand it after the first time, will he understand it after the second time?
He thought about it carefully and felt that this might not be the case. It was obviously impossible to make a three-year-old child sensible all of a sudden. He still had to teach him slowly over many years.
Having made up his mind, he didn't hesitate to continue preaching to the little guy. Instead, he touched his little face, smiled gently and said, "You are the cutest baby."
"Hehe~" Little Ruixue shook her head left and right with joy, and her whole body exuded a happy aura from the inside out.
Judging from past situations, Xiao Ruixue's attention had been diverted by this time. It was unknown how obsessed he was with this matter. After a while, he asked Lu Yuan a similar question.
"Little Daddy, when will Uncle Ye come home?" Little Ruixue tilted her head and looked at Lu Yuan eagerly, as if the Uncle Ye he mentioned was a member of the family.
Lu Yuan: "..." Just now he was talking about our home, and now he's talking about going home. Does this mean he thinks that Xiao Ye will definitely be with Bao Ge'er?
They had only known each other for a few days, but Lu Yuan couldn't understand why the little guy liked that child so much. "Baby, do you think Uncle Ye is a good person?"
"Okay~" Little Ruixue not only said yes herself, but also pulled her brothers and sisters to say it together, "Brother~ Nian Nian~ Uncle Ye is fine~ isn't he?"
Little Ruijing habitually thought about it for a moment before nodding and saying, "Baby is right."
Little Jingnian, on the other hand, was naturally gentle. He nodded only after Little Ruijing finished speaking, humming a soft "hmm" before saying, "Okay."
With the approval of her brothers, little Ruixue was so proud that she almost said, "Little Daddy~ Hello Uncle Ye~"
Lu Yuan sighed helplessly, "When your Uncle Ye grows up a little bit and passes the imperial examination, he will come to our house."
It’s not that their family asked for this, but it was a promise that Xiao Ye made on his own initiative.
The other party promised Xiao Li that if he was still not worthy of Xiao Manbao when he was sixteen, he would not tell Xiao Manbao about this matter, and pretend that this matter did not exist, and let Xiao Li find another good man for Xiao Manbao.
Xiao Li agreed.
