Chapter 1447： Extra Jewel (20)

   Little Bear scratched his head for a long time and thought about it for a long time, but in the end he couldn't come up with a good way, so he could only say: "If you were more obedient these days, your father and mother love you so much, they wouldn't be willing to punish you."

Baozhu lowered his head and said, "I would rather they punish me, so I feel better."

Xiaoxiong patted his little sister's shoulder sympathetically, and suggested, "Why don't you punish yourself, it will show you have a better attitude of admitting your mistake." The more Xiaoxiong said, the more he felt that this method was better.

My father loves his sister so much, and he definitely can't bear her to suffer. In the end, isn't this a matter of fact?

Seeing the firmness of the elder brother, Baozhu's eyes lit up and asked, "Then what should I punish myself?"

Xiao Xiong tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "How about you copy the "Book of Filial Piety" a few more times, or directly plead guilty?"

Baozhu turned around and left, she might as well think carefully.

Xiaoxiong scratched his head, and felt a little stupid. He planned to go to the prince for advice after copying the "Book of Filial Piety". Speaking of which, he caused it. will not be implicated.

Baozhu leaned on the table with her chin on her back after copying the "Book of Filial Piety", and the girl who was close to her came in with a bowl of noodles, and coaxed, "Princess eat some, otherwise the lord and the princess should worry about it."

She moved her head to the other side, turned her back to the girl directly, and said, "You just don't tell them no."

The girl looked at her master helplessly, "Then you can't stay hungry overnight, you haven't eaten all day."

Baozhu felt restless and restless in her heart. For a while, she thought that she did hurt her parents' hearts, and for a while, she thought that the fourth brother and Xiaofu must be somewhere at this time. They may arrive at the port tomorrow, and they will be able to board the ship and go to sea the day after.

She didn't know why, but she actually hated herself. If she was a man like her brothers, would she be able to go out to sea like the fourth brother, stay at sea like the second brother and the third brother, and expand the territory for me? ?

The girl didn't know what the little master was thinking. Seeing the tears in her eyes, she knew that she was wronged, and she didn't know how to persuade her for a while.

When Mu Yangling entered the door, she saw that the girl was lying on the table sadly, and the girl was surrounding her with a worried expression, so she could not help but take two steps forward.

The girl was relieved to see the princess, and hurriedly greeted her with a salute, and said in a low voice, "Niangniang, the princess still refuses to eat."

Baozhu quickly wiped away her tears and stood up. Hearing the words, she said, "Mother, don't listen to her nonsense, I ate some snacks."

"Okay, leave your face, you all back down."

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly led the people back quietly, and then closed the door for them.

Mu Yangling reached out to wipe her daughter's tears, and said, "You always eat a lot, what are those snacks worth? Hurry up and eat the noodles, my mother will sleep with you today."

Baozhu pouted, "Mother don't have to look at me specially, I said that if I know I'm wrong, I won't run away again. You should go back to accompany father."

"Do you think your mother is looking at you?" Mu Yangling nodded her forehead and said with a smile: "Silly child, mother has something to tell you, after all, our mother and daughter haven't slept together for a long time. "

Baozhu smiled happily, ate the noodles quickly, hugged his mother's arm and went back to the yard.

The mother and daughter washed up and lay side by side on the bed. Mu Yangling turned to look at her daughter and asked, "I only saw you sad because we didn't let you go out to sea with you?"

Bob urges his eyes to stop talking.

Mu Yangling touched her satin-like hair, "The whole family is on the road, one is the road to the sky that the parents have stepped on for their children, the other is full of thorns, but the road is wider and farther, although it is full of unknowns. The dangers of the world are also full of opportunities. Taking the second road may lead to heaven earlier than the first road, but it may also fall on the road.”

"Fearless children are naturally more inclined to choose the second option, because looking at their parents, they can already guess the difficulties and scenery they will encounter on the first road, which is really boring." Mu Yangling Sighed: "More parents will press their children to choose one, but your father and I both feel that your life should be yours, especially after you have a certain ability to think and discern."

"Because that's your life!"

Baozhu was shocked and looked at her mother with bright eyes.

"But no matter how open-minded and optimistic I am, I won't let my children rush to the same thorny road, knowing that they may be injured or even die on the road," Mu Yangling stroked her daughter's hair Said: "Just be a selfish mother. If you want to go to sea, there will always be opportunities in the future, but it must not be this time."

"If your fourth brother and brother Xiaofu can come back safely this time, if you still want to go to sea with them, I will definitely not stop you."

Baozhu couldn't help but grabbed her mother's hand and asked, "Can I go to sea too? Even if I'm a girl?"

Mu Yangling frowned, "What does going to sea have to do with you being a girl?"

Baozhu looked at his mother for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, it's okay."

She lay on her mother's chest and stretched out her arms to hug her, her eyes were hot and wet, "I was wrong."

Mu Yangling patted her on the back and comforted her: "This time your father is very angry, continue to apologize to him tomorrow, understand?"

Baozhu nodded slightly.

"Don't always focus on the matter of going to sea. There are still many things you can do. If nothing else, the goods you will bring when you go to sea belong to your business, whether it is profit or loss. You are conceited, your brothers have no ability to make money, since you are in charge of the ledger, you should think more and at least ensure your own business."

Mu Yangling said: "Daqi will not bear the cost of your going to sea. This time the ship is carrying Daqi's credentials, and the Ministry of Household has not allocated a cent, so if you want to go to sea, you have to make money yourself."

"Isn't Haimao only earning and not losing?" Baozhu looked puzzled, and looked up at his mother slightly, "I often listen to their talk when I go to Western shops, saying that as long as it is imported, it can make money."

"Silly child, benefits and risks are always proportional, how can there be a business that only makes money without losing money?" Mu Yangling looked at his daughter with a funny look, "In addition to the risks of storms, pirates, and patients, the goods from the West are also With all kinds of dangers, if the person who picks the goods has a bad vision and picks up some things that the people of Daqi don't need, do you think they can sell them?"

Baozhu thought about it carefully, shook his head and said, "If you think about it like this, there is still a lot of risk in sea trade."

"The ship capsized, the goods entered the water, and perhaps the sea merchants will go bankrupt, so the people will say that the sea trade is hugely profitable, only the profit but not the loss, because what they see is only the sea ship that has returned safely. I know how many shipwrecks and grievances were buried, let alone how many people in Daqi went bankrupt because of these shipwrecks."

"Your brothers don't know how to run the business. In the end, their capital may be put in it to get some dividends. In the end, you or Xiao An Xiaofu will take care of the sea trade." Mu Yangling said: "But your brother Xiao An has high ambitions. Yuan Yuan may not be interested in business affairs, and Xiaofu, his future is not much worse, so I am afraid that this business affairs will be handed over to you in the future."

"I wonder if you are interested?"

Baozhu asked with bright eyes: "Mother, if I take care of business affairs, can I also inspect wherever I want?"

Mu Yangling twitched the corners of his mouth, thought for a moment before nodding, "You are the boss, of course you call the shots."

Bob's eyes immediately glowed.
