In that year, Ling Jingxuan was thrown out of the family bearing the name of a monster. Except a bad name and the two kids in his belly, he had nothing with him, totally penniless. In the past five years, the daddy and two sons, even his parents and his two younger brothers couldn’t get away from it. Day and night, every minute, they had been suffering from people’s insult. Wherever they went, people would fling abuses at them. But who would expect that after five years, Ling Jingxuan had quietly built the biggest manor all around the nearby villages, which really manifested a proverb—Things change!
Then they installed the beams for the manor, Ling Jingxuan didn’t invite any guest. So today, on the day of hanging the plaque, he invited all guests here. After nine, all guests arrived in twos and threes in succession. Those villagers who heard the noise came to watch for fun, but no one dare say those harsh words again. Humans nature, they would bully the weak and fear the strong. Now, Ling Jingxuan wasn’t only rich! Even the old xiucai’s family that, what to say, could do anything they wanted in the village now nearly fell apart because of him, and that was his family, let alone others, of course none dare to provoke him now.
“Daddy, look, it's our carriage. It should be Uncle Chu and brother Yan.”
Seeing the carriage of their family driving over from afar, the two little buns in red and blue jumped and cried, while the comparatively introverted Tiewas only stood there with his hand held in Ling Jingxuan’s hand, that little face was stained with a thin layer of blush, under his eyes was also undisguised joys. They all liked Uncle Chu, not only because Uncle Chu was the most beautiful person they had ever met, but also because he cared about them and taught them a lot. And Chu Yan, he always took good care of them like a big brother, he led them to study and taught them to write stroke by stroke.
“Whoa!”
The carriage stopped steadily before Ling Jingxuan and others, then Ling Wen and Ling Wu rushed forward with great joys, with the cubs following behind. In case they might scare people, Ling Jingxuan had already made a deal with wolf daddy and let him stay inside and not come out today.
“Go.”
Seeing Tiewa, wearing that craving expression, was watching his sons, Ling Jingxuan left go of his hand and patted on his shoulder to give him some encouragement. Tiewa looked up at him. After quite a while, he nodded and then ran to Ling Wen and Ling Wu happily. The three buns stood in a line to wait for their tutor to come.
“Uncle Chu, Brother Yan!”
As the curtain got brushed open, Chu Ci and his son came out one after another, the three buns flushed with excitement. Chu Ci gave them a smile, suddenly everything around seemed to be overshadowed, and everyone who saw him froze there and couldn’t move a bit. He was already beautiful enough, plus that flower-like smile, like the old saying, he could really make wild geese alight and fish dive down for shame, and obscure the moon and make flowers blush
Being aware of the stir he caused, he slowly withdrew his smile. After jumping off the carriage, he still didn’t forget to turn to hold his son down. The three buns stood in a line and bowed together, “Welcome Uncle Chu and Brother Yan.”
“Good kids. Where are the others?”
Rubbing each of their heads, Chu Ci asked with a light tone. He liked children, especially these children. They were all smart, sensible and well-behaved. He liked them even without Yan Shengrui.
“Huzi and others are busy entertaining the guests. Uncle Chu, brother Yan, let's go in.”
As he thought of Lady Han, some kind of displeasing feeling flashed across his face. But soon, Ling Wen moved forward and grabbed his hand. As sharp-eyed as Chu Ci was, how could he not notice his abnormality? But he didn’t ask more, but only nodded, held his hand and walked to Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingxuan who were also walked their way. Chu Ci held Ling Wu with one hand, and Tiewa in the other, followed by Zhou Er and Zheng Da who were carrying those gifts and packages.
“Welcome, Mr. Chu!”
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Ling Jingxuan made a bow, wearing a bright smile, while Yan Shengrui behind him looked deep, a pair of eyes as deep as the abyss. Chu Ci tried to hold his strange feelings, tried to look ahead at the giant manor calmly. The plague was already hung up. And the two words Yuehua Manor written by Yan Shengrui looked so lively and vigorous. With a look, Chu Ci already recognized that was his handwriting, eyes couldn’t help flickering. After quite a while, he quieted himself down as he pretended to be appreciating their big manor. Then he slowly turned to Ling Jingxuan and said with a faint smile, “Your place is not bad. I guess I would disturb you for a few days.”
Last time he said, he and his son would stay here for some time, Ling Jingxuan also agreed.
“Don’t say that. It’s my honor that you and your son would live in my shabby place for a few days. I have asked someone to clean up your room. Xiaowen, Xiaowu, Tiewa, take your tutor inside.”
In fact, a few days ago, he already let Sister-in-law Song prepare all new thin quilts and other daily supplies and cleaned up the room in the innermost on the right, only waiting for them to move in.
“Hmm! Uncle Chu, come with us. Our house is very good. Each room is different. In my and my elder brother’ room, we got a lot of paperboards daddy made for us. After you place your packages, I will show you around. Oh right, Uncle Chu, Brother Yan, they are Dahei and Xiaohei, and they have their wolf daddy. But daddy doesn’t allow him to come out, in case he scares people. Wolf daddy is good, and he won’t bite people. But those people just barked like dogs. So annoying!”
Ling Wu dragged Chu Yan forward with a hand, while holding Chu Ci’s hand with the other, he excitedly started his chatterbox mode. And at the end of his words, his little mouth pouted as high as he could, to express his strong dissatisfaction. Everyone was amused. Chu Yan felt his head, “Everyone likes judging a person by the appearance. After they know about wolf daddy, they would no longer fear of him. Xiaowu, later you introduce wolf daddy to me, OK?”
Chu Yan scrupulously observed the rules of etiquettes, and his gestures and actions were so dignified and graceful. Even in the countryside, he still acted so, just like the best example of the imperial family.
“Hmm, OK, Brother Yan, you are gonna love wolf daddy! And he often brings back some dead wild animals for us. See? I have gained a lot of weight, right? That’s all wolf daddy’s credit!”
Speaking of his favorite daddy wolf, Ling Wu swept the awful feeling and smiled sweetly. Chu Yan unconsciously pinched his smooth and tender cheek and blurted out, “Yeah, you’ve really gained a lot of weight, soon you’ll grow into a meat stuffed bun.”
“Ha ha...”
“Hum! Brother Yan is bullying me!”
Hearing that, the crowd burst into laughter. As thick-skinned as the small bun was, he already couldn’t help blushing. But he could only have himself to blame. Since they had gotten acquainted with Chu Ci and Chu Yan, like spilling the beans, he told everything in the family to them, including that his daddy often said he’d raise them into meat stuffed buns, so Chu Yan would tease him on that.
“Hehe… It’s my bad. Don’t be angry, Xiaowu. I have brought you a lot of delicious food, all made by my father. Let’s go in and eat some, OK?”
Seeing that he was really a bit angry, Chu Yan hurriedly squatted down to appease him.
On hearing there was delicious food made by Uncle Chu in person, Ling Wu instantly threw that little shame behind, and nodded repeatedly, “OK, OK, OK, let’s go inside now.”
Speaking of which, he already couldn’t wait pulling him in, which made Ling Jingxuan and others so amused. Ling Jingxuan could only say ‘you little foodie’ in his heart.
