After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

When Yuan Huiniang and the others came to Yan Qingqing's room, a feeling of warmth suddenly hit their faces.

Li Xiangping smiled and said: "Mom's room is still as warm as ever."

Before Yan Qingqing could answer Ruyi, she smiled on the side and said: "Young Master, you don't know that when Madam learned that you recently went to Beijing, not only her own room but also your room will be warmed every day.

I'm afraid that Miss Sun and Master Sun will be frozen if they look back. "

Li Xiangping and others were extremely moved when they heard this.

After taking off his coat, Li Xiangping, Yuan Huiniang and Li Xiangkang respectfully kowtowed to Yan Qingqing.

Yan Qingqing smiled and quickly asked them to get up.

Then he held Li Jinqian in his arms and sat on the main seat.

Yan Qingqing looked at them and said: "I told Ruyi a few days ago, and I don't know if you can all come.

Especially the eldest brother and Shiro, I was still thinking about how deserted the New Year would be if these two brothers were left at home. "

Li Xiangping is an official and cannot just leave, and Li Xiangkang is currently studying very hard.

Yuan Huiniang smiled when she heard this and said: "The weather is too cold now, and the research done by my husband has not made much progress.

Magistrate Gao said that my husband had worked hard this year, so he was given an annual leave in advance.

As for the fourth brother, I don’t know much about studying. Mom, you can ask the fourth brother. "

Yan Qingqing turned her attention to Li Xiangkang who was standing aside.

Li Xiangkang is ten years old. He has been well fed and clothed in the past two years, and is now taller than Yan Qingqing.

Moreover, he is full of bookishness, and he is a scholar at first glance.

Not only that, this child has become much more mature and stable.

At least this time I didn't cling to Yan Qingqing and act coquettishly.

God knows how jealous Li Xiangkang was when he saw Li Jinqian sitting in his mother's arms.

In the past, his mother liked him the most, but now he knows that when he grows up, he needs to be mature and steady, and he has to keep a certain distance from his mother, otherwise he will be laughed at.

Seeing Yan Qingqing look at him, Li Xiangkang adjusted his clothes and replied with a gentle face: "Mom, Master said that I am still young. Even though I have some talent, I don't have enough experience.

If you have the opportunity, you can go out and experience it. Not only can you increase your knowledge, but you can also improve your realm. "

Yan Qingqing nodded when he heard this and said: "Your master is right, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.

But traveling thousands of miles is not as enlightening as a famous teacher.

Shiro, mother plans to send you to the Imperial College to study. What do you think? "

The Imperial College was the highest academic institution in the entire Yan Dynasty, and there were many knowledgeable masters there.

Ji Tongwen, who ranked second in Jinke, was born in the Imperial College.

Yan Qingqing is now a second-grade imperial concubine, and the Li family has two places to study in the Imperial College.

There is no doubt that the education in the capital is much better than that in Chengyang County, but Yan Qingqing is worried that if one day they want to return to Canghe Town, they may have to leave Li Xiangkang himself in the capital.

Things don't have both ends, and sugarcane doesn't have both ends. As for how to choose, it's up to Li Xiangkang himself.

Li Xiangkang just thought about it briefly and replied: "Mom, I am willing to go to the Imperial College to study.

Mom, there is no need to worry about me. I am an adult now. There are some things that my son will have to face alone sooner or later. There is no difference between doing it sooner or later. "

Now that Li Xiangkang has thought it through himself, Yan Qingqing doesn't need to say anything more.

But after thinking about it, Yan Qingqing said again: "Isn't Ding Xiu your best friend? When you have time, write him a letter to see if he is willing to come to the Imperial College with you to study."

Yan Qingqing always remembered the favor she owed to the Ding family when donating money. Although Ding also gained a good reputation, it was always the same thing.

Li Xiangkang happily agreed upon hearing this. Although he was not afraid of going to the Imperial College to study, he was not familiar with the place in the capital, so it would be good to have a familiar playmate.

After talking about Li Xiangkang, Yan Qingqing asked about the situation at home.

I was informed that everything was fine at home.

Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan are very strong and can eat at least two bowls of rice in one meal.

Mr. Li and Li Kaishan are also very good. At the end of the year, they are busy with the matter of dividends for the village.

Both the workshop and the embroidery workshop have professional management and accounting offices. With Li Sanniu and Xu taking care of the family, nothing will happen.

Yuan Huiniang also left Du Ruzhi at home to take care of her.

Yan Qingqing was completely relieved.

Canghe Town is their base camp and must not be lost.

Yan Qingqing was afraid that Yuan Huiniang and the others would be tired, so she quickly asked Ruyi and Ruxue to take them to their respective yards to rest.

Yuan Huiniang woke up full of energy and ran to Yan Qingqing's yard again.

She hadn't seen her mother-in-law for a long time and wanted to say some thoughtful words to her.

When Yuan Huiniang arrived, Yan Qingqing was still looking at the account book in her hand, which Mu Xi gave her yesterday.

Seeing Yuan Huiniang coming, she put the account book aside and asked with a smile: "Have you rested yet?"

Yuan Huiniang nodded and said with a smile: "Mom, I'm actually not tired at all. After all, I came all the way in a carriage.

It's just that the space in the carriage is too small, which makes me feel uncomfortable.

When I woke up, I remembered why I didn’t see Xiao Qi? "

Yuan Huiniang was happy to see Yan Qingqing, but she always felt that something was missing. It turned out that she had not seen Li Xiangyang since she came to Beijing.

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "That girl was taken to Prince Chen's Mansion by Mo Chen to play. Our stupid bird came to the capital with Mo Chen.

Xiao Qi found it strange and didn't even learn Kung Fu these past two days, so she insisted on playing with Xiao Hei. "

Yan Qingqing was curious before. She has never seen Xiao Hei since Xiao Mochen returned to Beijing. She has also asked people to search for him in the mountains several times.

Later I found out that this silly bird had been abducted by Xiao Mochen.

Yuan Huiniang smiled when she heard this and said: "Mo Chen is the prince now. He is so busy at ordinary times, and he came to pick up Xiao Qi to play. It shows that he really likes our sister Xiao Qi."

Yan Qingqing smiled when he heard this and said, "This kid Mo Chen is really nice to everyone.

You are good at craftsmanship. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. He will definitely be happy if you go back and make two sets of clothes for him. "

Xiao Mochen lacks nothing now, but he lacks family affection. Yan Qingqing knows this very well, and Yuan Huiniang quickly agreed after hearing this.

Yan Qingqing glanced at Ruyi next to her and continued: "Ordinarily, you have just come to the capital and I should let you rest for a while.

But there are too many things at home, and some things still need you to take care of. "

Yuan Huiniang smiled and said: "Mom, why are you so polite to me? If you have anything to do, just tell me."

If you really don't let me do anything, then I will feel useless. "

Yan Qingqing knew that Yuan Huiniang had a restless character, so she said: "This girl Ruyi has been with me for a long time, as well as that child Ada. They are interested in each other. I want to take advantage of the opportunity to arrange their marriage before the year." Done.”

Yuan Huiniang gave Ruyi a teasing look after hearing this.

Ruyi's face turned red when she heard this, and she hurriedly hid on the pretext that something was wrong.
