Chapter 3738 Calm down
Xiaohua actually has no independent opinion, these are all decisions made by Da Anna.
Before Daan made these decisions, he had actually consulted Yang Ruoqing and Yang Huazhong for their opinions.
Da'an's idea is that he has already purchased a real estate in the capital and is working as an official at the Hanlin Academy. No matter what happens in the future, at least in the past few years or in the near future, he will definitely settle down and establish a career in the capital.
Therefore, before Feng'er was three years old, he was allowed to live with Xiaohua in his hometown, Changping Village, or Xiaohua went to the capital, and Feng'er was left at home to accompany Yang Huazhong and Sun on their behalf.
When Feng'er turns three, Da'an will start preparing to educate Feng'er himself, so he has to take him to the capital so that Feng'er can adapt to the living habits of the capital and the local dialect in advance.
Because when Feng'er is about six years old, Da'an will send him to school, officially starting Feng'er's path to education.
"Sister, tell me, is it really true that a loving mother has a lot of losers?"
Xiaohua suddenly asked Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing was stunned for a moment and said: "Not necessarily, it depends on the situation. Why do you say that?"
Xiaohua smiled bitterly, "When I look at Feng'er's appearance, I feel soft in my heart. Besides liking it, I still like it."
"But as soon as I heard about the things that brother Da'an had arranged for Feng'er, I couldn't help but feel a little sad."
"I thought that this child can only play comfortably and carefree for three years. After he turns three, he will go to Beijing and start studying."
"Brother Da'an is good in other aspects. When it comes to studying, he is strict with himself, and he must be very strict with Feng'er."
"Every time I think about this, I can't help but feel sad. After I was six years old, I entered a school in the capital, studied with other children, and started to take one wave of scientific examinations..."
"Sister, I really can't bear to leave and feel sorry for Feng'er, but when I think about it, if I don't study, Feng'er will become an idle person, and I will also suffer in the future. So, I am torn in my heart. What about Brother Da'an?
After muttering a few words, he said that I am a loving mother but a loser!"
Yang Ruoqing laughed softly and said, "You just think too much and that's why you're so troubled."
Xiaohua smiled bitterly, "Maybe."
Yang Ruoqing continued: "Look at all the people around us and on the streets outside. Who can sit back and relax all their life?"
"Yes, sleeping in the sun under the overpass makes you feel like beggars have nothing to worry about. But, are you happy to live the life they live for you?"
Xiaohua shook her head like a rattle.
Yang Ruoqing continued: "That's right. Look at Da'an again."
"Da'an didn't go to school until he was ten years old. He has done harsh things like hanging a beam on his head and stabbing his buttocks."
"I know how hard Da'an studied and how much hardship he endured, and so do you."
Xiaohua nodded repeatedly, "I remember when brother Da'an came home from school, my mother and sister asked him to rest early."
"Only I know that he will still insist on reviewing his homework at night."
"It's so hot in the summer, and the mosquitoes are circling around his legs."
"It was a cold day, and my hands were so cold that they were shaking even when holding the pen. I sat sewing beside him, secretly watching, and feeling extremely distressed." Xiao Hua said.
Yang Ruoqing said: "You must endure the most hardships to become a master."
"Without Da'an's hard work, regardless of whether it was cold or hot, day or night, how could you two have the fine clothes and food that you have today?"
"In this world, everyone is thrown into a competitive environment from birth. Even if they don't study, even if they go out to do business, it's still a battle between wolves and tigers!"
"Even if you don't do business and stay at home to take care of crops, why do other people grow better rice than yours in the same fields?"
"That's also because other people put more thought into that field and take care of it more diligently, so when the autumn harvest comes, other people's families can do three to five more things than yours!"
"You feel sorry for Feng'er. This is human nature. Why don't I feel sorry for Chen'er?"
"Chen'er was specially recruited into Yingtian Academy, the best academy in Daqi, at a young age. Even though he was born with a smart mind, Yingtian Academy is filled with the best of the best selected from all over the country."
"There are even outstanding students from neighboring countries. In such an environment, Chen'er must be under pressure!"
Yang Ruoqing was filled with emotion when she mentioned Chen'er.
Chen'er is her pride, but Chen'er is also the child she loves most.
"Sister, it's not easy for Chen'er, and it's even harder for you!" Xiaohua couldn't help but take out a handkerchief and wipe her eyes when she heard the emotional part.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Compared with Chen'er's difficulty, what does my heartache mean? He has to rely on himself to study, and I, a mother-in-law, can't help him!"
"But, as a boy, sooner or later you have to shoulder the burden. You can't avoid it."
"Let's be careful. When the old bird teaches the little bird how to fly, he has to watch the little bird wrestling!"
"Be more open-minded. Everyone has to grow up. This is the case for Chen'er, and the same is true for Feng'er!"
Yang Ruoqing reached out and patted Xiaohua's hand to encourage the new mother.
…
After finishing the Qingming Festival, Feng'er solemnly wrote her name into the family tree of Lao Yang's family under the witness of the elders and the blessings of relatives and friends.
Yang Huazhong's family was happy to have a grandson, so the Qingming Festival banquet was held together with Feng'er's replacement Full Moon Banquet, and there were actually ten full tables.
Among the ten tables, three tables were occupied by relatives and friends who often moved around, and two tables were occupied by people with whom we had friendships from the village and the neighboring village.
The remaining five tables of guests are a bit interesting.
The heads of wealthy families in the surrounding villages, this town councilor, that councilor, the security chief, and so on.
What's more, people from the county town actually came. Magistrate Zou's family was a little more reserved and sent an official to express their congratulations.
Then there are the presidents of the county chamber of commerce, the president of the medicine store, the big shopkeeper of this shop and the big shopkeeper of that shop.
The dean of the academy, Mr. So-and-so, wait, wait...
Most of the five tables full of guests did not recognize each other and had unfamiliar faces.
But that doesn't matter, Da'an and Luo Fengtang don't know them, they just know the two of them.
"Tsk, tsk, why do so many people show up all of a sudden? Fortunately, I prepared enough ingredients in advance, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to greet them."
In the backyard kitchen, the women were very busy cooking.
Da Sun muttered as he chopped the meat and bones more quickly.
Yang Ruoqing was stirring the steamed rice noodles there, and laughed when she heard this: "What's the saying? If you are poor in the downtown area, no one will ask you, but if you are rich in the mountains, you will have distant relatives. Isn't that what you say?"
Mrs. Sun was also full of emotion, "Not to mention, these people's noses are really sensitive. They even found out about Feng'er's entry into the family tree and the replacement of the full moon banquet. It's amazing!"
