Chapter 53: The Third Baptism Ceremony, Luo Ranran Cried

Time flies.

Luo Ranran’s third-day baptism ceremony has arrived.

"Third day bath" is a very important ceremony for the birth of a baby.

On the third day after the baby is born, a bathing ceremony is held, and relatives and friends gather to wish good luck for the baby. This is called "washing the baby on the third day", also known as "washing the baby on the third day".

On this day, the princess's mansion only invited Emperor Luo, the empress, the crown prince, the eldest princess, and their closest people.

Originally, the Queen Mother had to be present, but as she was suspected of being poisoned by a poisonous insect and was not in a clear mind, Luo Fangjin had to be avoided from contacting her for fear of alerting the enemy.

Emperor Luo did not allow her to go to the princess's mansion.

The Queen Mother was very sad about this and angrily scolded Emperor Luo for being cruel, but fortunately Nanny Hua at the side persuaded her and she calmed down.

The princess's mansion was decorated with festive atmosphere everywhere. Today was Princess Zhaoyang's third birthday, and all the servants were given red envelopes and candies and snacks.

In the warm room, all the items needed for the third-day bathing ceremony were prepared.

Luo Ranran was carried to the warm room by the Queen.

Behind her, followed Princess Qingyang, who was wrapped tightly from head to toe. There was nothing she could do as she didn't want to dress like that, but she was still in confinement after giving birth.

Emperor Luo and others had been waiting in the warm room for a long time.

When they saw the white, soft and glutinous Luo Ranran, they all rushed up to her, calling her "good boy, good boy" and "sister, sister" non-stop.

Luo Ranran kept making “ah ah ah” sounds in agreement.

[Hello uncle Emperor, hello brother Crown Prince, hello aunt Princess, hello little brother Lianjin, oh, daddy, why are you joining in the fun, get out of the way! 】

Nangong Yu: ...Sad!

There was no way out. His daughter had lost interest in him as a father, so he could only come to Princess Qingyang to seek comfort in a wronged manner.

"Han'er, look at our daughter."

Princess Qingyang's eyebrows curved, and she glared at Nangong Yu coquettishly, "My daughter is still young, why are you arguing with her? Don't you see how old you are now?"

Nangong Yu: (╥╯﹏╰╥)

It’s so sad, my family members, who understands?

He, the head of the family, has become the person with the lowest status, the least sense of presence, and the least say in the family!

Luo Ranran blinked her big, dark, watery eyes, glanced at the fruits and snacks on the table, and her saliva flowed out uncontrollably.

[Wow, there are so many delicious foods. I really want to eat them, little brother~~]

Luo Ranran thought to herself while looking at Lian Jin pitifully.

Through the contact over the past few days, she discovered that Brother Lianjin was particularly fond of her and would give her whatever she said.

Even if I am a little hesitant sometimes.

But as long as she pouted her little mouth and looked at him aggrievedly with her big wet eyes, he would soften his heart within three seconds.

Every time this happened, my father, mother, the queen, and my aunt were all helpless with Brother Lianjin. It always seemed like they were afraid of him.

But after a while, the things in her hands were taken away by her mother and aunt, and she was not allowed to touch them. It was so heartless and she was very sad.

Then, the noise continued.

hey-hey! Fun, really fun!

Xiao Lianjin changed her usual self and shook her head seriously, "Sister, today is your third-day bathing day, and it is also an extremely important ceremony in your life. Don't do anything rash."

Luo Ranran cried sadly a few times.

But Lian Jin remained serious and did not show any sign of wavering.

[Woo woo, okay, if you don’t want to give it to me, then I won’t give it to you. When I grow up, I will get it myself, hehe. 】

Princess Qingyang and the others couldn't help laughing when they heard her aggrieved voice.

This little girl is thinking about eating even though she hasn't even grown any teeth yet. It's obvious that she's a little foodie. Fortunately, her family is wealthy and prosperous, which is enough for her to eat and drink to her heart's content for several lifetimes.

Originally, the midwife was the one who presided over the third-day bathing ceremony, but Luo Ranran's situation was special, so she managed to do it on her own.

But to be honest, it was Master Nangong Yu and his disciple who brought her to life.

But the master and disciple did not know how to preside over the third-day bathing ceremony, so the queen asked her Nanny An to preside over the ceremony.

Aunt An is extremely honored.

First, one kowtows three times to the thirteen statues of deities enshrined on the incense table, including the Goddess of Childbirth and the Goddess of Childbirth. Then, a copper basin filled with soup made from locust branches and mugwort leaves, as well as all the items needed for the ritual, are placed on a low table covered with fur.

Then he took Luo Ranran from the Queen's arms and sang loudly: "The third-day bathing ceremony for Princess Zhaoyang has officially begun."

Emperor Luo took the lead and added a small spoonful of water into the copper basin, then put in a few gold and silver coins. If the copper basin was not big enough, he would have wanted to fill it up.

Next came the Queen, the eldest princess, the Crown Prince, Lian Jin, and even Princess Qingyang and Nangong Yu followed suit.

Luo Ranran blinked her big eyes, watching with great interest, and from time to time she could hear Nanny An's resounding blessing, "Long flowing water, smart and clever..."

Until she was stripped naked and placed in the copper basin, her little face was full of shock and bewilderment.

【ah! I... am I taking a bath in public, being watched by everyone? 】

Luo Ranran blinked her big, ignorant eyes.

Looking at her family members surrounding her and laughing happily, she was so embarrassed that she almost wanted to dig a hole in the ground.

[Wow, help me, I’ve been seen naked, I’m so embarrassed, how can this be called a third birthday? It's clearly embarrassing for me, isn't it? 】

"Wow, wow, wow, wow..."

Luo Ranran was both angry and anxious. Her little hands couldn't cover her own body. She opened her mouth and burst into tears. Her voice was so loud that everyone in the princess's mansion could hear it.

Princess Qingyang and others saw this.

Instead, he laughed even more happily.

Because it is not taboo for a child to cry when he catches a cold, it is considered auspicious and people call it "xiangpen".

Luo Ranran cried so sadly. She was a ginseng spirit, but she was seen naked in public. It was really embarrassing!

Fortunately, Nanny An quickly dressed her in a bright red tiger-pattern dress and tiger-pattern shoes, and she stopped crying.

But even as she sobbed, she did not forget to clench her little fists and wave them at Emperor Luo and his son, her little face full of indignation.

[Uncle, brother Crown Prince, you two were the ones who laughed the loudest just now. I will remember this. Just wait for me. I will take revenge on you sooner or later. 】

The bodies of Emperor Luo and his son suddenly stiffened.

Ah, this... They clearly meant well, but ended up causing the little kid to misunderstand them. What should they do?

They definitely didn't mean to laugh.

No way!

Hahahaha, they finally got to see the good girl (sister) make a fool of herself, and they would feel sorry for her crying if they didn’t laugh out loud.

Hahahaha (≧ｗ≦；)

Just then, the guard came to report.

"Your Highness, Master Imperial Master, there is a person claiming to be from the Nangong family at the entrance of the Princess's residence, who wants to meet Master Imperial Master."

Nangong family? ! !

The atmosphere in the room suddenly froze.

Except for the eldest princess who looked puzzled, the expressions of the others suddenly darkened and there was murderous intent in their eyes.

The damn Nangong family was waiting for them a few days ago, but they didn’t show up for a long time. They had to wait until Guaibao’s third-day baptism ceremony to come and disgust them.

Damn it!

Luo Ranran clenched her fists and cried out.

[Let him in, let's close the door and beat the dog, quickly, don't let him run away. 】

Nangong Yu glanced at the excited little girl and held his forehead helplessly. His daughter was really not quiet at all!

Then he ordered the guard: "Bring him in."

"Yes, Master Imperial Master."
