Chapter 1305
As soon as Bai Qingyan arrived at Dong's bedroom, he heard the cheerful and hearty laughter of the aunts inside, and Bai Qingyan's mood also improved.
Hearing that the eunuch outside announced that Bai Qingyan had arrived, the fifth wife, Mrs. Qi, turned her head, looked at Bai Qingyan, and waved to her with a smile: "A Bao, come and see! These two little guys are eating their hands here." , no one pays attention to eating and concentrates on eating, come and see!"
Bai Qingyan walked through the hanging curtains, bead curtains, and around the screen, and saw the aunts, Xiao Ba, and brother Wang all sitting on soft cushions with a layer of ivory mats underneath and blankets on top.
Surrounded in the middle were two little babies wearing Baijia clothes made by the fourth aunt, with their backs to their backs eating their hands, and they really looked serious about eating.
The maidservants, nurses, and nurses of the four children stood around in a circle, all grinning from ear to ear.
Dong teased the two children with the golden ling in her hand, and coaxed them in a low voice, saying, "Happy, happy, grandma has been ringing the bell for a long time, you two should take a look at grandma too!"
But the two children only cared about eating their hands and ignored them, which made the auntie and the others burst into laughter again.
Xiao Ba pursed her lips: "Little nephew and niece are not fun, they don't play with Xiao Ba!"
"Xi Le and Kang Le are still young, so they can't play with Xiao Ba yet. After another year or more...Xi Le and Kang Le will be able to walk, and they will definitely chase after Xiao Ba to play!" The second wife, Mrs. Liu, laughed He stroked the head of Brother Xiaowang who was only gnawing on snacks in his arms, "But it's okay, now Brother Wang wants to play with Xiao Ba!"
Xiao Ba looked at Xiao Wang, who was eating dim sum scum, and was about to reach out to touch Xiao Kangle, Xiao Ba quickly crawled over and patted Xiao Wang's hand away, a little disgusted by his little nephew's saliva, and made a face Looking like an adult, he taught the little brother Wang who was looking up at her with a stern face: "Brother Wang, you can't touch your younger siblings, younger siblings are still young, you have saliva on your hands..."
"Ah! Our little eight knows how to protect our young nephew and niece!" The third wife, Li Shi, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed.
Bai Wanqing said with a serious face: "Kang Le and Xi Le were born prematurely by Eldest Sister, you have to protect them with all your heart, as I have told you before!"
Mrs. Liu laughed out loud, and took the hot handkerchief from the mother's hand to wipe Xiao Wang's hands: "Our little Ba already looks like a little adult! We are indeed Wang Ge'er and Kang Lexi's little Aunt Ba."
When Bai Qingyan saw this, there were smiles on his brows, but he remembered that when his brothers and sisters were young, they were also like this when they were young and ignorant...the older ones bullied the younger ones, and despised the younger ones, but...my family The younger siblings can bully them however they want, but they don't allow others to bully and dislike them after they go out. If others bully and dislike the younger siblings, they will beat them up!
Nanny Tong smiled and stepped forward to serve Bai Qingyan to take off her shoes, and helped her to sit down next to Mrs. Dong. She raised her hand to touch Xiao Ba's little head sitting next to Mrs. Qi, and pinched her eyes again. Brother's small face, looking back to see the two children Kangle and Xile, Zhengxiang's eyes are smiling even more.
These days, thanks to the hard work of Dr. Huang, my mother, and all the aunts and nuns, my daughter’s health is getting better day by day. Although she is not as happy as her brother, she is not as lazy as before. Lazy and unwilling to move hands and feet.
Bai Qingyan looked at the appearance of joy and happiness, and thought about going back to write a letter to Xiao Rongyan, and drawing this picture for Xiao Rongyan to see too.
"Little Ba, have you finished writing all the big characters that Eldest Sister asked you to write this morning?" Bai Qingyan asked her sister with a smile.
Bai Qingyan didn't assign many tasks to Xiaoba, they were all very simple characters, five sheets would be enough.
"It's all finished!" Bai Wanqing showed a big smile to Bai Qingyan, "There are two more!"
When Bai Wanqing's nurse heard this, she also smiled and said, "Yes, Eighth Miss wrote two more sheets today, saying that next time His Majesty checks her homework, she will be able to write even better!"
"Yo... this temper, I'm afraid I followed Abao!" The second wife Liu couldn't help laughing, "I remember that Abao was like this when she was a child. If you let her do three points, she can do six. Seven points, our little Ba will be a little Ah Bao again when he grows up!"
Nanny Qin brought a bowl of buttermilk to Bai Qingyan's hand in a small silver cup: "Miss, use some!"
Bai Qingyan took the silver cup with a smile, touched Bai Wanqing's small head and said with a smile: "When our little eight grows up, he will definitely be stronger than elder sister!"
When Bai Wanqing heard this, she looked at Bai Qingyan with bright black eyes, nodded vigorously, and secretly made up her mind to write three more sheets tomorrow!
"I heard that someone in the clan is making trouble again? And killing people?" Dong turned to look at Bai Qingyan.
"I've also heard about this. This clan is too disgraceful. If we don't punish it severely, we may not be able to appease the public's anger!" When the fifth wife, Mrs. Qi, was very angry when she heard about this, she lightly used a round fan to comfort Kang Le. He Xile fanned the cold, and said, "If you have already taken off your slave status, you are a good citizen. If the heirs of this clan dare to rape a good woman and beat her husband to death, this is Shuoyang. What Daqi...is doing is something that a human can do?"
"Now that the new law is being implemented in our Dazhou, if it is not handled properly, this matter will become a big deal... The common people will only say that the royal family is protecting the clan." Dong and Bai Qing said softly, "It must be handled properly."
Bai Qingyan nodded.
The occurrence of this incident made Bai Qingyan think of the words left in the bamboo slips left by Empress Ji about the abolition of the untouchable system.
It is recorded in the bamboo slips left by Empress Ji that Empress Ji changed Yan State from a slave system to a pariah system, but it was also a transition in historical development. If you really want to achieve equality for everyone, you need to rule the country after Yan State , reformed again, abolished the untouchable system, and then advanced to a system where everyone is equal.
Empress Ji's bamboo slips left only a few words, but they gave Bai Qingyan inspiration.
Bai Qingyan feels that this incident has reminded Bai Qingyan that the untouchable system will be abolished.
Nowadays, there are two types of slaves and servants in Dazhou, one is good, and the other is low...Although compared with the original slaves, lowly slaves have monthly money, and they have saved enough money or won The grace of the master has the opportunity to redeem the body, but before the redemption, the master can sell it at will, even if the master kills him, he is destined to die, and no one can pursue it. Moreover, the children born to the lowly slaves are the children of the family, which is different from the original slaves. It's actually not that big.
It would be fine if a lowly servant met a good master, but if he met a ruthless servant, one could imagine what would happen.
