"Niannian is amazing! She can climb trees and scale walls... Oh, right, I heard that Fourth Sister tried to bully Niannian in the Imperial Garden, but Niannian fought back and made her cry her eyes out. My mother said that I should play with Niannian so that Fourth Sister won't bully me anymore—"

At this point, Xiao Wenlian suddenly realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly covered her mouth.

Qin Zhouli snorted and said disdainfully, "What's there to be afraid of? I won't tell the Fourth Princess. If she bullies you again, just come and tell me, and we'll tease her again next time we go to the palace!"

"Really? Then... then you guys won't be in any trouble?" Wenlian blinked and asked them in a low voice, glancing at Qin Zhouli's brothers behind him.

"Of course not!" he said, patting his chest.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a young boy behind him chimed in, "He got a sore butt for days after he came back."

Qin Zhouli's smile froze after his plan was foiled.

"Huh? Flowers can grow on people's bodies! Are they pretty?" Xiao Wenlian asked curiously.

Qin Zhouli: ...

He raised his hand to cover Wenlian's innocent eyes, pressed her little head down, and quickly changed the subject, "Does she know how to play pitch-pot? That little princess."

“Niannian,” Xiaowenlian angrily threw away Qin Zhouli’s hand, thought seriously for a moment, and then asked Changyin, “Sister Changyin, does Niannian know how to play pitch-pot?”

Changyin thought about it seriously for a moment, then shook his head.

Seeing Changyin shake her head, Qin Zhouli almost let out a gloating laugh, then heard Changyin say:

"I don't know, but it seems like Sister Niannian can do everything, Niannian..."

"No, wait, wait, wait!" Qin Zhouli felt increasingly uneasy as he listened. Looking at the two little bundles of joy who were looking up at him without any apparent unease, Qin Zhouli frowned suspiciously and asked, "Don't you think something's wrong?"

The two little ones shook their heads blankly.

Qin Zhouli choked for a moment. He first pointed at Wenlian and asked Changyin, "You call her..."

"Sister Wenlian!"

Qin Zhouli nodded, then pointed to the little baby over there and asked Wenlian, "You call her..."

"Little sister Nian Nian!"

Qin Zhouli nodded again, then pointed to the little boy and asked Changyin, "What do you call her...?"

"Sister Nian Nian!"

Qin Zhouli: ? ? ?

"Don't you think there's something wrong with this?" Qin Zhouli asked with great suspicion.

The two little ones looked at each other, then blinked blankly, shook their heads, and looked at Qin Zhouli strangely.

Qin Zhouli: ...

"It's alright, you guys continue! Where were we?" Qin Zhouli, adhering to the principle of avoiding explaining to a toddler and lecturing them as little as possible, smiled and ended the topic.

“Speaking of Niannian, she knows everything!” Wenlian reminded the strange and forgetful Zhouli brother.

Xiao Changyin immediately remembered what she was about to say and excitedly said, "Yes, yes, Niannian knows so much! She can even talk to the big tiger and make it obey! My tiger cub was being disobedient, and it was only after she said a few words to it that it quieted down!"

"A big, big tiger?!" Qin Zhouli's tongue was practically tied in knots!

Then he asked hesitantly, "Then, that climbing trees and scaling walls, it means...?"

"It's that wall over there! You can even see that tree from here!" Wenlian turned around and pointed behind them.

Qin Zhouli swallowed hard, sensing something was wrong.

"Uncle Fatty! It's time! Come out and announce the start!" The little boy glanced at the time and called out in his childish voice.
