Rebirth: My Life as Daddy's Favorite in the Great Qing

A benevolent, all-around best debater and "chicken-raising" professional father; a master of palace intrigue and "white lotus" drama queen mother; a difficult, petty elder brother who ...

Chapter 368 The snow fell so deeply and seriously

As expected, no one could escape. The charm of the furry and soft little black and white ball, Yinzhi's gift really touched Yinzuo's heart. Since he had the company of this little ball, Yinzuo really no longer thought about running away. Of course, everything has a good side and a bad side. The reason why Yinzuo no longer always thought about going out to play was because he found something that interested him more than going out to play.

"It's snowing so heavily outside today. Yinzuo, you must stay here quietly and not go anywhere, okay? If I find out you dare to sneak out while pretending to obey me, I will have your three iron-eating beasts sent away tomorrow."

Well, it is said that Kangxi knew best how to deal with Yinzuo. Look, this sentence accurately grasped Yinzuo's weak spot. Yinzuo was now being strangled by the neck and his throat was locked. Even if he had extraordinary abilities, he was just like Sun Wukong wearing a tight hoop and could only be controlled by others.

"Father, you are unreasonable. How can you be so overbearing? You stopped me from going out to play before, and now you're still stopping me from going to the Imperial Garden. How about this, why don't you just find a rope and tie me to you? Also, didn't you always teach me that a gentleman doesn't ask for anything, and asking for something is always righteous? But you're threatening me with my little furry ball like this. This behavior is not what a gentleman does."

Since Kangxi was determined not to let Yinzuo go, no matter how much Yinzuo insisted, he was ultimately unable to get his wish. Yinzuo performed a one-man show for half a day, singing, reciting, acting and fighting. When he looked back, he saw that his father was not disturbed by him at all, but how could he still sit there so calmly and study his chessboard?

It is well known that a one-man show cannot last long. After Yinzuo made a fuss and saw that Kangxi really had no intention of paying attention to him, he gradually calmed down. Because he was holding a grudge in his heart, he simply stopped sitting next to his father. He asked someone to bring a lounge chair and some snacks to the window, and then he rolled up in a blanket and went to the window to enjoy the snow.

"The snow fell so deeply, so seriously, reflecting the scars on me lying in the snow. I don't care how scarred I am, but I care about who will accompany you in the future... My little dumpling, how can I live without you..."

Although Kangxi seemed to be busy with his own affairs, it did not mean that he did not pay any attention to the situation on Yinzo's side. As a father, he knew Yinzo's character very well. His son was not someone who would give up easily. Sure enough, Yinzo did not disappoint him. Look, after his first move failed, he came back to attack his father.

"Yinzuo, I advise you to shut up. If I hear you talking about life and death all the time, I will have your little girl sent away."

Well, it seems that his surprise move didn't work. After making such a fuss for so long without getting what he wanted, Yinzuo was tired. Since there was no hope of his father agreeing to let him see Xiaotuanzi, Yinzuo simply lay back, covered his head with a blanket, and went to play chess with Zhou Gong.

Although Kangxi had prepared himself to fight with Yinzuo for a long time, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Yinzuo was willing to take the initiative to stop the fight. Seeing that Yinzuo was sleeping by the window, he was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he reached out and called Liang Jiugong who was waiting nearby.

"Liang Jiugong, go get a thicker blanket from the back and replace the thin blanket he's wearing. Where does this little bastard get such a bad temper? He gets angry with me if I don't let him go out. I've really spoiled him..."

Although Kangxi ordered Liang Jiugong to get a blanket, such a small matter was not really worth the effort of Liang Jiugong, the chief steward. As soon as Kangxi finished speaking, someone had already headed towards the side hall, so all Liang Jiugong had to do was to take the blanket from the palace servant and then walk to Yinzuo to change the blanket on him.

Yinzuo had just laid down, so naturally he would not fall asleep so quickly. Therefore, he heard every word that Kangxi and Liang Jiugong said. With his eyes closed, he felt the thin blanket on his body being lifted up and taken away, and then a heavy blanket was covered on him. Yinzuo could not help but curl his lips. Okay, since his father cares about him so much, he will not bother with him this time.

It must be said that Kangxi was right in one thing. Yinzuo's bad temper was really spoiled by others. As for who spoiled him, we can only say that Kangxi was tortured by Yinzuo now and it was all his own fault.

As for Yinzuo's sleep quality, as mentioned before, he is famous for his good sleep. Look at how he sleeps. If Kangxi hadn't come and forcibly dragged him back from Zhou Gong, there is no telling when he would wake up.

"Ama, what time is it now?"

The reason why Yinzuo asked this was not because he slept so soundly that he didn't know what year it was, but because the weather outside was really testing his ability to tell time. When he slept, the sky outside was gloomy and snowing. Now that he woke up, the sky outside was still gloomy and snowing. It would be a miracle if he could tell what time it was.

"Okay, now that you're awake, get up and move around, wash your face, and wake yourself up. It's almost lunchtime now. If you're hungry, I'll have Liang Jiugong serve you food."

Yinzuo had been sleeping in the recliner in the same position for a while, and his whole body was stiff. He stood up as Kangxi pulled him, and walked around the flower hall twice before he felt his arms and legs become more flexible. He looked up and saw Kangxi still standing not far away looking at him. He hurried over, hugged his father's arm, and pulled him towards the dining hall.

"I didn't realize it until Father told me, but I'm really hungry right now. Father, what are we having for lunch today? Do you have grilled lamb chops? If not, can we have them in the evening..."

Even though the only people eating there were Kangxi and Yinzuo, father and son, the table was still filled with lunch. Yinzuo had never been polite to his father, so after washing his hands, he didn't wait for Kangxi to sit down. Instead, he took the chopsticks beside him and started to taste the dishes for his father himself.

"Ah, this braised lamb is really good. It's crispy, juicy, and not greasy at all. Come, try it."

"This crystal meatball is also very good. Not only is it frozen like crystal and looks lifelike, it tastes delicious too. It must be great to eat it cold in the summer."

"Father, look at how well this old duck soup is stewed. Isn't it your favorite? Here, your son will serve you a bowl. Try it and see if you like it."

Yinzuo not only loves to eat, but also seeks to share his food with others if he comes across something he really likes. Now, there are only the two of them, father and son, dining at the table, so the person he can share with is naturally Kangxi. After this meal, not only did Yinzuo's belly become full, but even Kangxi was stuffed by his food.
