Yuan Qing was finally accepted by the Yang family, but there was no difference between his acceptance and rejection. He did not enjoy any of the benefits of the master of the Yang family. He did not have his own room, no one to serve him, and no servants to respectfully call him Young Master. .
Yuan Qing later learned that although Yang Su liked him for a while, he didn't really take him seriously. He had dozens of grandchildren. He asked about it when he remembered it by chance. His thoughts were all on the power struggle in the court and the complicated government affairs. superior.
Yuan Qing was only three years old and of course could not support himself. Yang Xuangan found a nurse to take care of him. However, in order to explain to his father, this nurse was a little different. The nurse's surname was Shen. She was beautiful, gentle and virtuous. The daughter of a wealthy family in Wuxing, Jiangnan.
Shen's name was Shen Wanqiu, and everyone called her Qiuniang. Her husband was Chen Dynasty general Zhang Zhongsu. He was killed by Sui general Shi Wansui in Quanzhou the year before last. She was rewarded to Yang Su as a prisoner of war by Emperor Yang Jian, but Yang Su There were too many beauties in the house, and she also had a daughter who was not long born. Yang Su did not take her as a concubine, but instead rewarded her son Yang Xuangan. Yang Xuangan was afraid of her and did not dare to take her in, so he sent her to work in the kitchen.
Yang Xuangan knew that she was clever and could write poems and poems. It was a pity to be a cook. He was a little pity for her, but he never found a chance to relocate her. Yuan Qing happened to come, so Yang Xuangan decided to let her adopt Yuan Qing. This was okay. Explain to your father.
In the afternoon, Shen Qiuniang took Yuan Qing to her new residence. She used to have only one room and lived with her daughter. Now she had to raise Yuan Qing. Yang Xuangan ordered someone to clean up a small yard for them. The yard was very small. , two and a half cabins, half a kitchen, and two dormitories.
The small courtyard is located in the west outer courtyard of the Yang Mansion. All the distant relatives of the Yang family live here. There are dozens of families, and each family has a small courtyard. The door is not locked at ordinary times, and you can enter and exit freely. Due to the large number of people and households, the environment is not very good.
Shen Qiuniang does some chores in the kitchen. She gets two ounces of money a month. Now she is raising Yuan Qing, and the inner house allocates three ounces of money to her every month, so she has five ounces of money a month.
But everyone was aggrieved for her. The descendants of the Yang family, the most marginalized and the lowest concubine, were paid ten ounces a month, let alone Yang Su's grandson and Yang Xuangan's son. This was obviously bullying, but Shen Qiuniang did not It's not too little. The money of 50 cents a month is enough for her to raise two children.
These are Mrs. Zheng's arrangements. If she didn't take her husband's face into account a little, she would still think that giving Yuan Qing three ounces of money a month is too much. He is only three years old, and one ounce of money is enough for him to eat.

"Sir, you will live in this room from now on."
Shen Qiuniang gave up the largest room to Yuan Qing. She held Yuan Qing's little hand and her heart was full of love for him. This poor little motherless child was inferior to the housekeeper's child just because he was an illegitimate child.
Yuan Qing was very happy in his heart. He was afraid that Mrs. Zheng would raise him and she would despise him. He didn't want to see that evil woman, but he liked Shen Qiuniang very much. He fell in love with her the first time he saw her. She was so beautiful and dignified, with a gentle and kind personality, full of motherly kindness. He held Shen Qiuniang's slender and smooth hand and felt that he was the luckiest person in the world.
The title "Gongzi" sounded extremely harsh to Yuan Qing. He shook his head and said seriously and resolutely: "I will call you Auntie from now on, and you will call me Yuanqing. You are not allowed to call me Master again."
Shen Qiuniang touched his little head and liked it very much, 'This kid!'
After all, she was born in a noble family, and she did not recognize her status as a slave. She nodded, "If you call me aunt, I will call you Yuan Qing. From now on, we will be a family."
"Auntie, let me get something!"
Yuan Qing grabbed his small luggage bag and ran into the small room next door. He showed his little head and said with a smile: "I like small rooms, but I'm afraid of living in a big room."
Shen Qiuniang knew that he actually gave the big room to her. He was really a little man. She was moved in her heart and thought of her husband who died in the battle. Her eyes turned red and a tear almost didn't roll out.
"Good boy, Auntie, please clean up first, and then we'll make dinner."
She went into the kitchen to clean up. At this moment, a well-behaved little girl rode a bamboo horse and ran into the yard. She pursed her lips and shouted: "Mom, I almost got lost."
"Niuniu, don't run around, just play in the yard!"
"Um!"
The little girl nodded heavily and rode the bamboo horse in circles in the yard, "Drive! Drive!"
Yuan Qing heard the sound and walked slowly out of the small room. He had already heard from his aunt that she had a daughter as old as himself. He saw the little girl jumping naughtily in the yard, riding a horse-headed bamboo. She She has snow-white skin, inheriting her mother's complexion, and her eyebrows, eyes, and mouth are exquisitely delicate, just like a doll.
The little girl was riding a bamboo horse, and suddenly she saw a little boy tilting his head and looking at her. Although she was only three years old, she was very courageous. She also tilted her head and looked at him with a smile.
Yuan Qing fell in love with her immediately, "What's your name?"
"My name is Niuniu, what's yours?"
"My name is Yuan Qing!"
Yuan Qing felt that he should be like a big brother. He coughed and said in a rough voice: "From today on, you will call me Brother Yuan Qing!"
"Why do I call you brother? Is it because you are taller than me?" She blinked her big eyes, looking unconvinced.
"Niuniu, brother Yuan Qing is two months older than you, you should call him brother."
Shen Qiuniang came out with a basket of rice. Without firewood, she couldn't cook. Today she had to go to the kitchen to help. She told her two children, "You just play in the yard and don't go out."
"Mom, I will take good care of him!"
The little girl pretended to be sensible and promised that she would take good care of Yuan Qing. She tilted her head and thought about it again, and said with a smile: "Let's compete. If you can write, I will call you brother."
Yuan Qing thought to himself, "No way this little girl can write!"
He walked out of the room, found a thin branch, gathered some loose soil with his little hands, and scrawled his name on it, 'Yuanqing'.
He smiled and said: "This is my name, do you recognize it?"
"I know, my mother taught me that Yuan of Yuan Dynasty means Qing of celebration."
Yuan Qing immediately looked at her with admiration. He handed her the branch and asked, "Then can you write?"
The little girl took the twig with her tender hands, smoothed away the dust with her little hands, and wrote the two words "chuchen" on it. The writing was much more beautiful than Yuan Qing's.
"This is my name. It was given by my father. My surname is Zhang and my name is Zhang Chuchen."
Yuan Qing felt that the name seemed familiar. He seemed to have seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it. At this moment, a group of children suddenly ran to the door. They all looked like four or five years old. They clapped their hands and jumped and laughed at him. , "Illegitimate child! Illegitimate child!"
Niu Niu didn't understand what it meant to be an illegitimate child, but Yuan Qing was angry and actually bullied her. The children in the inner courtyard were probably brothers from other clans. This must have been taught by their parents. The children of servants did not dare to do this.
call.
When Yuan Qing saw the tallest and fattest child in the middle, he danced the most happily. He could tell that he was the leader.
Yuan Qing slowly walked to the far door. Five or six children were jumping around him, "illegitimate child! illegitimate child!"
Repeating these three words forever, Yuan Qing took out a five-plant coin from his pocket and performed a little trick on the fat kid. The money suddenly disappeared from his hand. He had been practicing this little trick along the way and was already very skilled.
.
Several children were stunned and opened their eyes wide. Yuan Qing took out the money again and asked the fat child with a smile, "Did you see it clearly?"
"No!" The fat kid shook his head.
"Then take a closer look."
Yuan Qing put the money in his hand and squeezed it. The fat boy came up to him with wide eyes. He wanted to take a closer look to see how the money disappeared.
When the little chubby face was only half a foot away from his hand, Yuan Qing punched him in the nose. Although he was small, he was very strong. He punched the opponent's nose firmly, and only heard "Oops"
!' Shouted, the fat boy was knocked to the ground by his punch, and his nose was bleeding.
The fat boy was so frightened that he cried loudly, got up and ran away. As soon as he ran away, the other children ran away with him. Yuan Qing sneered and dusted his palms. How dare these little brats come to fight with him!
Niu Niu ran up, her eyes wide open, and looked at him with admiration, "Brother Yuan Qing, you are so awesome!"
Beauty's admiration for heroes has nothing to do with age, it comes from nature, and she will be called "brother" naturally.
Yuan Qing showed his face in front of the little beauty and felt proud. He moved his wrists and said with a smile: "If you beat these little brats, they won't win with force. What's so great about it? In the future, you can also practice martial arts and become a heroine, and you will be just as powerful."
Yuan Qing was suddenly stunned. He knew who the little girl in front of him was...
