Qi Haoran pondered the meaning of his words and jumped up. “Even if you’re in the business world, you can’t frame a loyal and kind person.
Fan Zijin rolled his eyes and said, “There is no loyal and kind person in the business world. If one fails it’s because he’s not capable enough. Even in the event of a failure, he won’t implicate the commoners. However, it’s different in the bureaucracy where one will easily implicate innocent people. Should that happen, you and Eldest Cousin will pull my ears and nag at me.”
Qi Haoran felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t figure it out. He could only say, “Why must you frame loyal and kind people?”
Fan Zijin said faintly, “For the sake of benefits. If they get in my way, they leave me no choice but to deal with them.
That was why Eldest Cousin said that he had no bottom line. Fan Zijin also knew that he had gone astray, but what if he could not correct his ways?
Fan Zijin sized Qi Haoran up from head to toe and sighed faintly. However, he and Qi Haoran were brothers. Qi Haoran had a sense of justice and was a little silly. He really did not want to go too far and end up falling out with this brother of his one day.
Qi Haoran came back to his senses and patted his chest. “It’s alright. Didn t Big Brother askyou to follow me? I’ll keep an eye on you and definitely won’t let you do anything outrageous.”
Fan Zijin opened his mouth, wanting to say that he was unwilling to follow him precisely because of this. However, seeing that Qi Haoran was already excitedly planning what to do next, he could only swallow his words.
Mu Yangling trusted Fan Zijin’s character very much. After listening to Qi Haoran’s recount of their conversation, she said nonchalantly, “Zijin values brotherhood. With you and Big Brother keeping an eye on him from time to time, he won’t go astray.”
Qi Haoran never thought that Fan Zijin was a crooked person. In his opinion. Fan Zijin was a very good person. Hearing this, he nodded vigorously. “That’s why I don’t understand why Big Brother is always so worried that Zijin will take the wrong path. He’s clearly so wonderful.
Mu Yangling patted his arm and said, “Smart people think differently from us. As long as we know that Zijin is a good person, that’s all that matters.”
Qi Haoran said unhappily, “Am I not smart?”
“You are smart, but we all have plain five-opening hearts. Big Brother and Zijin, however, have seven-opening hearts, which makes them much more perceptive than us.”
Taken aback, Qj Haoran asked, “I’ve only heard of the concept of a ‘sevenopening heart’. Is there such a thing as a five-opening heart?”
Mu Yangling looked at him in disdain and said, “Ordinary people have five openings in their hearts, while sages have seven. Don’t you even know this saying?”
Qi Haoran rubbed his nose and muttered, “Who pays attention to that?” Then he added, “You have just five openings too, so we’re a perfect match.
Mu Yangling saw that his eyes were sparkling and his hands were starting to become naughty under the blanket. She grabbed his hand and said, “Don’t mess around. We agreed that you would have a good night’s sleep tonight. Tomorrow is your son’s zhuazhouO banquet…”
“Don’t worry, I’ll wake you up tomorrow morning and won’t let you oversleep…” After saying that, he turned over and pressed the person under him, blocking her mouth so that she couldn’t say anything to object.
The next day, Mu Yangling was woken up on time. Qi Haoran smiled at her ingratiatingly and said, “Come, let me help you put on your clothes.” Mu Yangling turned to look at the hourglass. Seeing that it was not too late, she heaved a sigh of relief. She pulled her clothes over and said, “Turn around. I’ll put them on myself.”
Qi Haoran turned around regretfully. After Mu Yangling was done putting on her clothes, Qi Haoran ingratiatingly wringed out a towel to wipe her face. Seated in front of the dressing table, Mu Yangling only forgave him for last night’s rashness when she saw him being so careful.
Seeing that Mu Yangling’s lips were slightly pursed, Qi Haoran knew that she was no longer angry. He hurriedly went to open the door and let Spring in to help Mu Yangling comb her hair. Then, he sat on the chair and watched her while drinking tea.
Mu Yangling saw it in the mirror and said, “Why are you drinking tea so early in the morning? Didn’11 tell you to prepare plain water in the house? You should drink some plain water in the morning and only drink tea an hour after breakfast.”
Because there were always people around her who were not in good health, Mu Yangling had always paid attention to longevity preservation techniques. She did not drink tea in the morning or at night before going to bed and only drank plain water. Qi Haoran also followed her habits.
Spring paused and said with a smile, “I’m afraid that the new servant girl is insensible, so she made a mistake. I’ll instruct them to pay attention later.”
Mu Yangling nodded nonchalantly.
The moment Little Bear opened his eyes, he got up. Seeing that he was not in his room, he immediately pouted unhappily. Ever since his father came back, he would always be carried to the warm room to sleep at night. A little dissatisfied, he wanted to slide down the bed. When the wet nurse saw this, she quickly went forward and wrapped him in a blanket. She coaxed him gently, “Third Young Master, let’s put on beautiful clothes first, okay? We’ll look for Fourth Madam after we’re done.”
The young servant girl quickly brought him the clothes she had prepared long ago. It was a red outfit, complete with a red top, red pants, and a red short coat. When he put on the red hat, he looked like a red doll. It was an extremely festive look.
The wet nurse wanted to carry Little Bear over, but Little Bear insisted on running there on his own. Although he was only one year old, he ran steadily and quickly to the main house.
When Qi Haoran heard the sound, he couldn’t help but smile. The only one who dared to run in the courtyard with such hurried footsteps was Little Bear.
Qi Haoran got up and had just reached the door when a red child rushed into his arms.
Qi Haoran picked him up and took off his hat. He rubbed his bald head and said, “What a nice outfit. It makes my son look even more handsome.
Although Little Bear was young, he could understand praise. He immediately hugged his father’s neck and no longer blamed him for leaving him in the warm room last night.
He grabbed Qi Haoran’s hair and tugged at his shoulders, wanting to ride on his shoulders.
Without thinking, Qi Haoran put his son on his neck and walked out. As he walked, he shouted, “Let’s go to the zhuazhou ceremony.”
Little Bear grabbed Qi Haoran’s hand and giggled, his laughter spreading all the way to Zhaode Hall. Everyone knew that Little Bear would only laugh like this when he was “riding a horse.”
Little Treasure sat on the couch in low spirits and ignored him.
Qi Xiuyuan’s heart ached at this sight. He gritted his teeth at Qi Haoran, who was outside, and waved everyone out of the courtyard. Just as Li Jinghua worried that Qi Xiuyuan would be angered by this, she saw Qi Xiuyuan lift their son up and place him on his neck…
She was stunned and completely speechless.
Little Treasure, on the other hand, was thrilled as his butt bounced up and down. Unlike Little Bear who only knew how to giggle, he already knew how to speak, so he grabbed his father’s hair and shouted, “Go, go.” Li Jinghua’s expression changed slightly. Just as she was about to stop him, Qi Xiuyuan carried Little Treasure and ran out…
Li Jinghua’s eyes were slightly wet. She lowered her head and did not say anything.
Qi Haoran was bringing Little Bear over. When he saw that the servant girls and maidservants of Zhaode Hall were all outside the courtyard, he asked curiously, “Why are you all here?”
The servants looked at each other, clueless as to why they were chased out.
Seeing that they were in a daze, Qi Haoran pursed his lips and pushed the door open. He bent down and entered. He had to bend down so that his son’s head didn’t bump into the door.
The moment he entered, he encountered Little Treasure, who was ‘flying’ in the courtyard with Qi Xiuyuan holding him up.
