Chapter 404 – Granddaughter

The subordinate promised and ran to Fu An Hall.

Zheng Ji knew that the old man was taking it out on Shy, made a bow and said, “Teacher, the student has traveled a long way back to the capital, your old man can’t let the student return with regrets, right?”

He played the affection card.

The old Duke did not let up and said, “Come back after asking for peace, and at night the old man will get drunk with you.”

Zheng Ji was unable to do so and had to go and greet the old lady.

Fu An Hall is really only the old lady alone.

The old lady is also quite puzzled, not to mention Zheng Ji as a child often come to the house to play, even after growing up also often come to the house. But the old master so commanded, very obedient to send the other people away.

The old lady also heard that He was sent out of the capital to recuperate from a bad disease, and asked about He’s condition with great concern. The two spoke for more than two hours before Zheng Ji went to the outer courtyard.

After that, Zheng Ji came to Duke Cheng’s residence for three consecutive days, all in the name of accompanying the old Duke to play chess.

On the fourth day, the old Duke had to have someone go to the inner courtyard to fetch Cun Cun and Yin Er to the outer courtyard to see Zheng Ji.

One does not want Zheng Ji to come to the house every day to pester him, not only is it too annoying, but also afraid that the emperor will be unhappy if he knows.

CunCun ran ahead, and Nurse followed behind. Cun Cun strenuously stepped through the high doorway, ran in and climbed on the knee of Taizu Zu.

As he climbed, he laughed and said, “Tazu Zu, Cun Cun runs fast, and his sister is behind him.”

The child had a tile head and was wearing a pretty blue brocade little robe, the same color pants, and a yellow ribbon around his waist. He looked very much like Meng Zhimo, with white teeth and red lips, extremely beautiful.

Zheng Ji at the end of the previous year saw Cun Cun once, although only a year and two months past, the child has changed greatly. Not only has he grown a great deal taller, but he can also run and jump, and he can speak smoothly.

He laughed and said, “I haven’t seen him for more than a year, he has grown so tall.”

The old duke said proudly, “You don’t understand. A child grows fastest within one year of age, about six to eight inches long, and will slow down after one year of age. This year, Cun Cun only grew more than three inches ……”

When he was young, he was away for long years leading soldiers to fight, and basically never brought up a child. The child’s growth and development, or these years at home with heavy grandchildren heavy grandchildren only know.

Zheng Ji was ashamed that he was even worse than the old Duke of State. Jing’er was more than five years old when he first saw it, and then he was gone for several years, and when he saw Jing’er again, he was already a teenager.

The first time he saw Shyi, she even had a son. He himself did not know that she was his own daughter, and did not even take a close look at her.

The old Duke of State heard Zheng Ji’s sighs and couldn’t bear to crowd him too much. To CunCun, he said, “This is Grandfather Zheng, go kowtow.”

CunCun heard this and climbed down to Tai Zu Zu’s knees.

Meng Zhong had already been instructed to take a futon and put it in front of Zheng Ji.

CunCun was a good boy who obeyed, and kowtowed when he was told to do so by Taizu Zu. He knelt on the futon and kowtowed once, shouting, “Grandfather Zheng.”

After shouting, he stood up and stared blankly at Zheng Ji.

Zheng Ji was thrilled. Although the child did not call him “Grandfather”, he kowtowed to him.

He picked CunCun up and put him on his lap. He took out a turquoise peace button with a red ribbon from his pocket and personally put it on CunCun’s neck.

At this time, another nursemaid came in with a little girl in her arms.

The little girl was more than a year old, wearing an orange jacquard satin jacket and a long red skirt with a few plum blossoms embroidered on the skirt. Head combed with two small grips, small grips tied with red silk rope.

The child looks delicate eyebrows, powder withered jade, large eyes unusually bright, straight little nose, indeed very very like yourself. Only more white than himself, more clean.

Zheng Ji looked at her without turning his eyebrows away, liking her to no end.

Tone looked at Zheng Ji first, and her gaze then turned to the old man. Stretching out her hand to him, she said, “Tai Zu Zu, hug.”

The voice was soft and glutinous, and Zheng Ji’s heart was softened. He subconsciously stretched out his hand, but Yin’er flung herself into the old Grand Master’s arms

The old lord burst into an unimpeded laugh.

Yin’er climbed on the old master’s body, first tugging on his long beard, then kissing him, saying, “Tai Zu Zu, kiss.”

The old master laughed again freely.

I don’t know if he did it on purpose, or if he forgot everything once he saw his great-granddaughter. Instead of introducing Zheng Ji, he hugged his great-granddaughter for joy.

Cun Cun slipped off Zheng Ji’s knee, ran over to lean on the side of the old Duke’s legs to join in the fun, an old three small crowded into a pile.

Zheng Ji anxiously said, “Old Duke, introduce.”

The old Grand Duke of China only put the tone down on the ground, pointing at Zheng Ji said, “tone, this is Grandfather Zheng, go kowtow.”

Cun Cun also said, “Sister, this is Grandfather Zheng, brother has already kowtowed.”

The little ninny walked over to the futon and knelt down. Without kneeling, not only did she kneel, her hands crawled on the ground.

Feeling that this was not kowtowing, she knelt straight up again and kowtowed in a standardized manner. Straightening up again, she said, “Zuzu, kowtow.”

She couldn’t say the word “Zheng” yet.

Zheng Ji got up and picked up the child.

This was the first time he had ever held such a small child, and the first time he had ever held a girl. The child is soft and fragrant, his heart is like a spring breeze, incomparable warmth and iron.

He did not sit down, and held the child very high, the child and he faced him. He stretched out his hand, first touch the small grips, and then slide down, forehead, eyebrows, nose, small mouth, chin.

Afraid of the calluses on the palm of his hand to scrape the child pain, with the back of his hand to stroke.

He had tears in his eyes, like holding his granddaughter, but also like holding Jiang Yishi when he was a child. His mouth said wordlessly, “Yin’er, shi shi ……”

Yin’er felt the warmth and kindness in this “ZuZu’s” eyes, giggled twice, raised her hands to touch his face, and then kissed him with her small mouth.

“Zuzu, kiss.”

Zheng Ji was overjoyed and kissed her as well. This was his second time kissing a child, the last time was kissing Cun Cun.

Zheng Ji sat down, placed Yin’er on his lap, and took out the red peace buttons from his arms and put them on Yin’er’s neck.

These two peace buttons were specially invited by him at a holy monk from the Tianzhu, there were three in total, and the other one was given to Zheng Jing.

Seeing Cun Cun looking blearily at him and Yin Er, Zheng Ji beckoned Cun Cun over again, and squeezed the big one and the two little ones into a pile.

He wasn’t very good at coaxing children and asked very adult questions.

“What words does Yin’er speak?”

Yin’er broke her little chubby fingers and said, “Mother, Taizu, father, brother, and Hua Hua.”

Cun Cun added, “And, and, and, sister will also say rice rice, bird, aunt, pretty …… much much more, sister is the smartest.”

Zheng Ji pretended to be surprised, “Oh, Yin Er is so smart, like Zu Zu.”

That look was embarrassing to see the old duke of state.

Seeing Zheng Ji excited like this, the Old Grand Duke also felt something in his heart and took his subordinates to the courtyard to tend to the flowers and plants. The two nannies didn’t know what they meant and stood still, and were called out by Meng Zhong again.

Not long after, the sound of Zheng Ji’s hearty laughter came from inside the house, as well as the sticky laughter of the two children.
