Front yard study

"The flowers of the Tangdi tree are not as bright as those of the Hubei tree. Among all the people today, there is no one better than brothers... Is this the truth? Father, this is all I have learned today."

Yinzhen became more and more absorbed in listening. "Tangdi" is about brotherhood! The second prince and the eldest prince died before they had time to cultivate their brotherhood!

"Father, Father?" Honghui walked forward, hugged Father's arm tightly, and kept comforting him, "Father, don't be sad, your son will always be with you."

Recently, Ama has been in a trance and listless, with a gloomy face all day long, unable to eat or sleep, and has lost several pounds. These days of company have not made Ama smile at all, the pain of losing a child is not so easy to relieve.

Yinzhen hugged his eldest son in his arms, was silent for a long time, and finally spoke, "Honghui, you have to be fine, you must be fine." After losing the second prince, he really couldn't bear to lose another son, especially the eldest prince who had always been smart and considerate.

If anything happens to the eldest prince, it will be like cutting his heart out!

Ama is trembling! Honghui's heart was filled with emotions. He raised his little face and said seriously, "Ama, please make a promise with your son. We both want to live a hundred years, okay?" As long as Ama does not change his original intention, he will always be the most filial and caring son.

"Okay, okay, we will all live to be a hundred years old and become centenarians of the Aisin-Gioro family." Yinzhen was deeply moved. He could understand his son's sincerity when he said this.

After saying this, he smiled bitterly: "Today is March 25th, and tomorrow is your birthday. Father wanted to hold a big party, but your second brother just passed away, and your mother is seriously ill. Father is really in no mood to entertain guests, so you will be wronged again."

Honghui immediately retorted: "Father, what are you talking about? My second brother has only been gone for a few days, so I am not in the mood to celebrate his birthday! Besides, this is just a small birthday for a four-year-old, it is not worth making a big deal, just a bowl of longevity noodles tomorrow will be enough."

"Ah!" Yinzhen sighed, feeling guilty. "You are already four years old, and I have never celebrated your birthday. I wanted to have a good one this year, but I didn't expect that things would not go as planned! However, I promise you that I will have a big birthday party next year."

"Father, no need, really no need. All I want is for you to be with me on my birthday." He didn't care about any birthday party; it was all empty talk.

Yinzhen has made up his mind that his eldest son's birthday next year must be celebrated in a grand manner, otherwise he will not be able to get over it!

"Okay, go back to Haitang Garden first. You don't need to worry about Ama here! Tomorrow is your birthday. Ama will allow you a day off, so you don't have to come to the front yard tomorrow. Also, tell your mother that Ama will come over for lunch tomorrow to celebrate your birthday."

If you keep worrying about it, you won’t grow taller!

The corner of Honghui's mouth twitched. Ama changed the subject again, which meant that he didn't want to continue the argument. Forget it, Ama was in a bad mood, so just let him be!

"Father, I'll take my leave now." I won't disturb you and you can continue to be sad.

He then told his mother about this matter, including the big birthday party next year and the fact that his father would come to Begonia Garden for lunch tomorrow.

But why wasn't my mother surprised at all? Honghui couldn't help but ask: "Mother?"

Yixiu couldn't help laughing out loud: "Your father has already told mother, is there any need for you to remind him? He is just teasing you!" The Fourth Master was finally in the mood to make a joke!

Honghui realized that he was blinded by the light. How could he make hasty arrangements today when the birthday was tomorrow? Ama's ability to change the subject was becoming more and more skillful. He was calm and composed, like a mountain collapsing in front of him. Now, he was fooled.

"Mother, you have learned bad things. You didn't even tell my son in advance, and you teamed up with my father to bully my son!"

Yixiu turned a deaf ear to him and said: "Your father is in a bad mood, so you, the eldest son, have to take over. With you by his side making jokes, your father can recover from the pain of losing his son as soon as possible."

After saying this, she tapped Honghui's forehead with her finger and said, "Okay, mother wanted to give you a surprise, so I didn't tell you. But I didn't expect your father to tease you with this, and I didn't expect you to actually believe him! You always acted so smart, but now I see that you are still a child!"

"..."

Ama has ruined his reputation, how hateful!

March 26th arrived quickly amid subtle reluctance and anticipation.

When he woke up early in the morning, Honghui was greeted with countless smiles and congratulations. Words like "Happy birthday, eldest prince" and "Congratulations to eldest prince on his birthday" were heard everywhere.

He couldn't help laughing. This year, he was finally no longer three years old!

"My son, please pay my respects to your mother."

"Hurry up and get up. Why are you being so polite to me?" Yixiu held her son's hand tightly, smiling. "Today is our eldest prince's birthday. I wish Honghui good health and happiness for all the years to come."

As she spoke, she took a box and opened it. "This is the jade pen washer that my mother gave you. My mother had someone carve it by hand. Take a look and see if you like it."

You don't need to look any further to know that the brush washer was definitely carefully prepared by my mother, as you can tell from its hollow shape.

Honghui smiled from ear to ear, showing all his inner joy, "Thank you, mother, for this washbasin. I like it very much."

As long as you like it! Seeing her son's heartfelt smile, Yixiu breathed a sigh of relief, "Mother went to the small kitchen to make longevity noodles herself. Wait, you have to eat it all in one go without cutting off the noodles. Mother hopes that you can live a long life!"

In previous years, on her son’s birthday, she would personally prepare a bowl of longevity noodles as a token of her love for her son.

Looking at the not-so-small amount of noodles in the small bowl, Honghui picked up the chopsticks and started to pick them up, his movements gentle and quick. The longevity noodles made by my mother were only one noodle from beginning to end, but her cooking skills were not very good, so I had to be careful every time I ate it.

If he broke the noodles, his mother would blame herself.

Honghui held his breath and ate all the slim meat in the bowl in one go, leaving only an empty bowl.

He looked at his mother's face seriously and said sincerely, "The longevity noodles made by your mother are the most delicious. I look forward to my birthday every year because on this day, you will make me a bowl of longevity noodles. Only after eating this bowl of noodles will I feel that this year has not been wasted."

Yixiu was so pleased that she couldn't stop herself from being happy. "Okay, okay, as long as you like it, mother will make you a bowl of longevity noodles every year, and you can eat it for the rest of your life!"
