The moon was perceptive; she instructed the palace servants to light a charcoal fire and set out the dishes, meat, fruit, wine, and flower tea that had been prepared beforehand—everything was provided.

Sisi, holding her small chopsticks, stared intently at the bubbling red broth, swallowing hard, unable to resist the urge to drool. It smelled so good! Why wasn't it cooked yet?!

"Whoosh—"

"Aww, I'm satisfied."

Sisi chewed on the tender duck blood with her little mouth, and the whole baby was happy.

"Useless."

Helian Nie's thin lips were usually quite blunt, but the curve of his lips was always upturned.

"Little princess, here's some meatballs for you."

Helian You was very generous to his little sister. Sisi smiled and mumbled, "Thank you, Third Brother."

Before I even had a chance to eat, two more pieces of blanched meat appeared in the small bowl in front of me.

Helian Yi and Helian Ci exchanged a glance, then calmly withdrew their hands. A certain Sisi blinked, glancing at her eldest brother, then at her third brother.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Um."

You're welcome.

Two voices rang out simultaneously.

Sisi blinked, feeling secretly delighted, thinking she was the happiest doll in the world.

Old Man Helian's face darkened, but he was quick-witted and nimble-fingered. He picked up a large chopstickful of meat and piled it full into Sisi's small bowl.

Helian Nie, however, was quite satisfied, his peach blossom eyes lazily glancing at the hesitant girl.

"Eat up, no need to thank me."

Mou Sisi: "…………" Okay, okay, I'll lie down.

Silently lowering her head to eat her meat, Sisi dared not say a word, Sisi dared not ask.

The three brothers: "…………"

Ha, how naive!

After finishing his meal, Helian Nie had other matters to attend to and was about to leave when a certain Sisi called him back.

"Father, wait a minute! Sisi still has a red envelope for Father!"

Helian Nie stopped in his tracks, turned around, and his handsome face showed a strange expression. He seemed to doubt whether there was something wrong with his ears.

What did that ugly thing just say? A red envelope, for himself?

"Father, don't go! Wait for Sisi! Sisi will be back soon! Wait for Sisi!"

Sisi hastily wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and then hurriedly ran towards her bedroom with her chubby little legs.

The group of people left in the hall looked at each other, all completely bewildered.

Yue'er, "..." The little princess asked her for red paper that day, saying she wanted to give the emperor a red envelope. She thought the little princess was joking, but she actually prepared it!

Helian Ci raised an eyebrow on his sickly pale face. So, little princess, did you get a share of her red envelope?

Helian Yi: "..." Red envelopes are only given out on New Year's Eve, and besides, it's not my little princess's place to give out red envelopes...

Little Helian You was completely stunned. He hadn't brought a red envelope. What should he do? Would his little princess be sad?

Soon, Sisi came back with her chubby little legs, carrying four bulging red envelopes in her arms. No one knew what was inside.

"Hehe, here, for Father Emperor, this is from Sisi to Father Emperor."

Panting, Si Si pulled out the largest red envelope and handed it to Helian Nie.

Helian Nie hesitated for a moment, then took it, lowering his eyes to open it, but was stopped by a certain Si Si.

"Father, no, no, this is a little secret between you and Sisi. You can look at it when you're alone back home."

Helian Nie paused in his action of opening the red envelope, looked at the little girl, and surprisingly agreed, "Okay."

Sisi blinked and said, "Mmm, Father, wave goodbye! Happy Yuanshuo! Sisi loves Father!"
