The Stepmother is Unkind

Xie Ce stared at the duck as if he was about to swallow it whole, and Yin Mingyu called everyone back.

However, before taking a few steps, he saw a very funny picture.

Their Xie family's Qing Jun Langjun came on a horse, followed by a suave Langjun who was Tanhua Lang Chu He, Chu He also rode on the horse, but he was holding a long rope in his hand, and the other side of the rope A lamb is tied to one end.

The little lamb was very stubborn, its four legs collapsed and its four hooves rubbed against the ground.

"What-what-"

The tender cry of the little lamb came, getting closer and louder, and it seemed to be very temperamental.

The sheep croaked, and the duck in the servant's hand suddenly croaked mournfully, "Quack quack—"

Xie Ce was startled, and quickly turned around and hugged Yin Mingyu's leg.

Yin Mingyu was very calm, "What's there to be afraid of roast duck?"

The elder's reaction to "terrifying" things will directly affect the child. Seeing that she was so calm, Xie Ce began to move her mouth and swallow again.

"Hey~"

Behind them, a maid suddenly exclaimed in a low voice.

Everyone looked over, and the maid immediately said in fear: "The maid knows it's wrong, the maid is looking at the duck... The duck is about to lay eggs..."

Everyone looked at the duck together again, and sure enough, it was moving, squawking and exerting force, and it didn't take long to reveal a little bluish white.

"…"

The servant holding the duck panicked, "Young, Mrs. Young, take it away."

It stands to reason that it is a bit unsightly, but... ducks lay eggs, a few have seen them with their own eyes.

Not only did Xie Ce stare curiously, but even Sanniang and Siniang couldn't help but glance at them, watching the bluish-white nails squeeze out a round egg tip.

Then it got bigger and got stuck...

"quack-"

The servant was about to go away, the duck was making an effort, and their eyes followed involuntarily, nervous.

Yin Mingyu... was also curious, and decided to be the kind person who satisfies everyone's curiosity, so he stopped the servant, "Don't move, don't break the egg."

The servant did not dare to move any more, fearing that the duck's egg would really break, so he squatted down and let the duck's feet touch the ground.

When two men not far away saw their strangeness, they both had doubts, so they drove their horses faster.

The two horses ran over and stopped in front of Yin Mingyu and the others. The horses snorted when they were restrained. At the same time, the ducks seemed to be stimulated, shrinking and spitting, and a duck egg slapped. roll to the ground.

intact.

"Papapa..." Xie Ce applauded inexplicably excitedly.

Siniang Yin Mingruo was reserved, but Sanniang Yin Mingrui laughed outright, raised her veil to cover her lips and turned her side to laugh uncontrollably.

Yesterday, Chu He saw the windy appearance of the third lady of the Yin family on the Cuju arena, and he was more impressed with her. He saw her smile with tears on the horse, so he looked at her more.

Xie Qin didn't pay attention to the others, and immediately turned over and dismounted.

Yin Mingyu patted Xie Ce's little head, "This egg is for you, Xiao Langjun, not for others."

As soon as Xie Ce heard it, he reached out to take it.

How could Nanny Tong teach Jin Gui's little Langjun to pick up the eggs that he just laid, bowed to Xie Qin, and hurriedly asked the maid to take the eggs and wash them by the stream.

Xie Qin glanced at the fluttering ducks and... duck eggs in the servant's hands, and asked Yin Mingyu, "Are you thinking about ducks again?"

Yin Mingyu respected Xie Qin in front of outsiders and said, "Lang Jun, you are back."

Xie Qin nodded and introduced a friend behind him to her: "Second Mother, this is Chu He, Chu Yaoqing."

Then he said to Chu He, who was holding the sheep but was very romantic: "Yaoqing, this is my wife Yin, and the third and fourth ladies of the Yin family."

The two parties greeted each other, Chu He bowed his hands to Yin Mingyu, smiled and said: "Brother and sister, Jing Ming and I are in the same department, and we have been in the same department for several years. Jing Ming said that there is no need to bring worship, but I can't be rude. Bring a lamb to roast it yourself, and teach my siblings and two ladies to taste it."

He said, retracted the rope, and dragged the stubborn lamb to him.

"What—"

No one gave a sheep directly as a gift, and they had to bake it themselves. Yin Mingrui and Yin Mingruo both looked at Chu He and the sheep in his hands curiously.

Chu He noticed the gaze of the two ladies of the Yin family and was very calm.

Yin Mingyu was also well-informed, thanked him calmly, and motioned Yin'er to accept the "gift".

Yin'er blessed Chu He and took over the rope of the sheep, but she also tugged it and didn't move, so she exerted more strength to drag the lamb back.

Xie Ce looked curiously, but was afraid to go over, hugging Yin Mingyu's legs and hiding behind her, revealing his eyes.

Xie Qin has long been accustomed to his friends and can tolerate him leading the sheep. Naturally, he expected how he would react, and he knew that Yin Mingyu would not mind.

At this time, the salute was over, and he saw his son hiding behind Yin Mingyu and said, "Cer, salute."

Xie Ce retracted his head in fear, and his entire body was hidden behind Yin Mingyu's skirt, which was covered tightly.

Chu He rescued him, "Jing Ming, my nephew is still young, it's fine."

Xie Qin frowned slightly, "Cer, don't be rude."

Xie Ce did not dare to be self-willed, and slowly revealed it again, first the head, then half of the body, the whole body.

He didn't know what to call it, so he just raised his two little hands together and bowed down.

Yin Mingyu ignored the communication between their father and son. After Xie Ce said hello, he looked at the lamb and said with a smile, "Chu Langjun had some thoughts, so he asked the pantry to handle it, and then put it on the fire."

Little Lamb didn't know if he felt the fate he was about to face, and struggled fiercely.

Xie Ce went around to the other side of Yin Mingyu, hid a little further, clenched Yin Mingyu's sur skirt tightly to see it being pulled away, suddenly burst into tears and choked: "Mother...don't eat..."

Yin Mingyu lowered his head and asked him, "What about roast duck? Do you still eat it?"

Xie Ce cried and said, "Eat~"

"..." Why does it make people want to laugh so much? Yin Mingyu held back his smile and asked again, "I don't want to eat this lamb, I'll replace it with a sheep, okay?"

Xie Ce held back tears slightly, sniffed, and nodded, "Okay."

Okay...maybe in a child's mind, they are different.

Yin Mingyu said apologetically to Chu He: "Chu Langjun, there should be sheep in Zhuangzi, can you change one?"

With a smile in his eyes, Chu He shook the folding fan lightly, and said indifferently, "Brother and sister are free."

So Yin Mingyu ordered the maid to go to the pantry and explain that this lamb was led by Yin'er and tied to a tree.

The little lamb no longer struggled, and followed obediently, and the cry of "baabaa" was much lighter.

Xie Ce held back her tears, showed a smile, and dragged Yin Mingyu to see the little lamb.

Yin Mingyu taught him to go on his own, and laughed at him: "It's a lamb that was born not long ago. You are a two-year-old child, and you are taller than it, so you are afraid?"

Xie Ce pouted and refused to admit, "I'm not afraid."

Yin Mingyu said casually, "If you're not afraid, go by yourself."

Xie Ce hesitated, rubbing little by little to approach the little lamb, but the little lamb was not afraid of him, and let him approach very meekly.

Xie Ce found out, gradually became bolder, and got closer. Seeing that the little lamb was still safe, he turned around and smiled smugly at Yin Mingyu.

Really a child, this can also be proud.

Yin Mingyu gave the innocent child a smile and went to arrange a picnic. Roasting sheep in the wild is more interesting to her than watching children interact with lambs.

San Niangzi was interested in the little lamb, so she asked the maid to pick up two handfuls of grass, and Xie Ce and one each to feed the little lamb.

Si Niangzi was busy with Yin Mingyu, and she seemed to be at Yin's house. She listened to what Yin Mingyu said.

And Xie Qin only looked at Yin Mingyu's actions from the beginning to the end, and didn't say anything.

Chu He sat on the ground, drinking tea and sighing with emotion: "I have also heard a lot of rumors about the successor, but few are like younger siblings, Jingming, you are very lucky."

Xie Qin didn't say anything, and followed Yin Mingyu's eyes. It was indeed a blessing, but it also taught people how to please her...

When the fire was set up, the servants of the pantry brought out a whole lamb, which was bigger than the little lamb just now, and set it on the fire, with the seasonings ready and set aside.

Chu He was not careful, he took two pieces of cloth and wrapped his sleeves, and then smeared various seasonings on the sheep, layer by layer.

Yin Mingrui and Xie Ce were attracted, so she wanted to bring Xie Ce over to see them together.

Xie Ce was curious and reluctant to bear the little lamb, so he insisted on pulling the little lamb to go with him.

Yin Mingrui: "..." She can't do it.

Xie Ce asked his maid to help him, and he just dragged the stubborn little lamb whose legs stiffened again and struggled back to watch the other sheep with seasoning.

It was Yin Mingyu, who took the rope, led the lamb back to the tree, squatted beside it, fed a handful of grass, and went over to watch it finish eating.

Xie Ce's childish temperament is very forgetful, and his attention was quickly attracted by Chu He's hand.

When the aroma of roast lamb dissipated, Xie Ce's little nose moved and he couldn't stop gulping.

After the mutton was roasted, the tenderest plate of meat was sent to Zhuangzi, and then Chu He sliced ​​another plate and brought it to Xie Qin.

Xie Qin did not eat, and gave it to Yin Mingyu.

Seeing Xie Ce's greedy eyes, Yin Mingyu smiled at him, put the plate behind him, and then put his hand behind him.

Jin Er immediately handed over a plate of roasted duck.

Yin Mingyu took it in front of him, handed it to Xie Ce, and said solemnly, "Eat it."

Xie Ce held the plate in both hands, his eyes full of confusion: "Roast sheep?"

Yin Mingyu nodded affirmatively, "Yes, it's roast lamb."

Xie Ce looked at the meat in the plate that looked different from the one just now, his face blank.

Yin Mingyu picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Xie Ce ate it deliciously, and immediately stopped looking into it. When he saw the little lamb, he took the plate and shared the delicious food.

The little lamb turned against the previous gentleness, baa a few times at Xie Ce, rubbed his hoof on the ground, and pushed Xie Ce's chest out on his head.

Xie Ce took a few steps back, but he still couldn't stabilize his body. He fell back and spilled the meat all over the ground.

Nanny Tong hurriedly stepped forward to help, Xie Ce stood up and was extremely aggrieved, Da Da ran back to find Yin Mingyu.

"Bring me a jug of wine."

Yin Mingyu watched with great interest the jug brought by Jin'er, and poured and drank by himself.

At the fire, the sheep were still roasting, and Chu He sliced ​​two more plates of meat, one for Yin Mingrui and the other for the maid, who gave it to Siniang.

Then Chu He cleaned his hands and drank with Xie Qin, played the qin and played the flute.

Chu He's xiao sound is like his people, very happy, Xie Qin's qin sound is in harmony, and it gradually becomes lighter.

Autumn is just right.
