"Zhe'er can't eat anything sour, even if we don't find anything sour, he can't stand it either." Su Yujin said with a smile, "Yiyi, on the other hand, really likes to eat all kinds of sour fruits, even very sour oranges, she likes them very much."
As she spoke, Su Yujin also gave Yi Yi a slice of orange.
When Yiyi saw the oranges, she immediately dropped the rattle in her hand and started eating them with relish.
After eating a slice of orange, it reached out its hand to ask Su Yujin for some. It even struggled to crawl over because Su Yujin was slow in giving the orange to him. However, it couldn't crawl yet, so it just lay on the ground, yelling "Ahhh" at Su Yujin.
That look made Su Yujin's heart melt.
After handing Zhe'er to Su Yunruo, Su Yujin reached out to pick up Yiyi and fed her the orange slices one by one.
Afraid that Yi Yi would swallow the whole orange segment and choke due to her greed, Su Yujin just held the orange segment with her hands and let Yi Yi suck the orange juice in peace.
Seeing Yiyi eating with gusto, Su Yunruo smiled, "As expected, Yiyi is really popular."
As she spoke, Su Yunruo gently pinched Yiyi's chubby cheeks.
Intimate and doting.
When Zhe'er saw this scene, he first blinked, then raised his little head and moved his cheek closer to Su Yunruo.
Su Yunruo giggled when she saw this, and stretched out her hand to pinch Zhe'er's little nose, "You kid, do you also want your aunt to pinch your cheeks?"
Zhe'er didn't understand much, he just knew that his cheek was pinched and he was grinning. His originally watery eyes narrowed into a slit, and two shallow dimples appeared on both sides of his cheeks.
This look made Su Yunruo like them even more, and she kissed Zhe'er and Yiyi on the cheeks again and again.
The two children played for a while, then the wet nurses took them to feed them and then prepared to coax them to take a nap.
Su Yujin invited Su Yunruo to have lunch.
When the two sisters got together, there was no excessive politeness or false formalities. Su Yujin personally cooked a bowl of steaming hot mutton noodles, which was served with some exquisite cold dishes and pickled vegetables.
The mutton soup was delicious and fresh, and the noodles were made by asking the cook to knead the noodles in advance and leave them to rise. They were smooth and chewy with an excellent taste.
Su Yunruo had not eaten such home-cooked food for a long time. She did not care about her image in front of Su Yujin. She ate the noodles with big mouthfuls and exclaimed that they were delicious.
After finishing the bowl of noodles, Su Yunruo asked someone to add another half bowl.
With the previous bowl of noodles as a base, Su Yunruo slowed down the pace of eating noodles and chatted with Su Yujin about some trivial family matters.
Since her marriage to Qin Peiyou, the two have been living in the Prince's Mansion.
The Queen was quite concerned about this, and specially ordered some aunts and palace maids who were handy, knew the rules and knew how to do things to work for Su Yunruo.
These people had been specifically instructed by the Queen, and each of them was an outstanding person. They knew their own duties and did things very properly without overstepping the rules.
Su Yunruo had not been troubled at all during this period. She even learned a lot of court etiquette from those older and more experienced aunts and knew many of the rules that should be followed in the palace.
"The Queen really loves you. She has thought of things like this so carefully and done everything for you in advance." Su Yujin said with a smile.
If Su Yun were the Crown Princess or the future Queen, whether now or in the future, she would need to handle many affairs inside and outside the palace and maintain the reputation of the royal family.
Although Su Yunruo usually knows the general rules, there are many differences between the rules inside and outside the imperial city, and royal affairs cannot be taken lightly. She still has a lot to learn.
The Queen made this arrangement to pave the way for Su Yunruo's future.
"My queen mother is kind and treats me very well." Su Yunruo pursed her lips, her face full of knowing smiles, "So I also studied hard, not to embarrass my queen mother."
"Next month is the Queen Mother's birthday. My mother wants me to be in charge of the banquet this year, but she also wants me to watch and learn how to host one."
"The Queen loves you, so you really need to do your best and live up to her expectations. But you don't need to put so much pressure on yourself. If you feel it's unbearable, you need to say what you need to say."
Because of her childhood experiences, Su Yunruo cherishes everything she has obtained. She is also unwilling to disappoint or trouble others, and always likes to handle everything on her own.
This kind of personality is likable, but it is very stressful for her.
Su Yunruo's life is not easy.
Even now that she is married to Qin Peiyou, the man she loves, and they live in harmony and love each other, but over the past few months, Su Yujin can see that she has lost some weight.
"I've made a note of that." Su Yunruo nodded repeatedly, and then smiled, "After I'm done with this busy period, I'll come to my sister's house and have a seat and some delicious food."
"You're welcome anytime. We'll prepare everything for you." Su Yujin narrowed her eyes and put a few amber quail eggs into Su Yunruo's bowl.
When Su Yunruo was about to leave, Su Yujin asked someone to pack a lot of food.
Spicy dried meat, air-dried yak meat, spicy strips, various braised dishes and various pastries.
The bags, large and small, took up half of the carriage.
Su Yunruo happily took them all back, and at dinner time she took out a lot of them and asked Qin Peiyou to taste them one by one.
"As expected, Princess Ping'an's cooking skills are unmatched by any chef in the palace." Qin Peiyou praised repeatedly, and even opened the food box he brought back. "Today, I accompanied my father to discuss matters in the palace, and I heard from Eunuch Ming that there were lychee shrimp balls and four-color steamed dumplings for dinner. Thinking of your love for them, I specially asked for a portion of each and brought it back for you."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Su Yunruo felt warm in her heart.
"What are you thanking me for?" Qin Peiyou raised his eyebrows, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he reached out to hold Su Yunruo's white hand.
Su Yunruo's cheeks flushed immediately, "Thank you Sanlang..."
…
The moon was above the willows, and the ground was bright as if the whole yard was covered with a layer of thin frost.
He Yanxiu walked into the room shivering with cold. Seeing Su Yujin leaning on the bed, he warmed his hands over the stove to make sure they were no longer cold before reaching out to hold Su Yujin's hand.
Fortunately, it’s not cold.
"Why aren't you asleep yet so late?" He Yanxiu pulled up the quilt. "You look so sleepy that your eyelids are fighting. Don't wait for me in the future. If you are sleepy, go to bed early."
"Today, Zhe'er and Yiyi took a long nap. They were fussy and didn't want to go to bed at night. They were just coaxed to sleep by their wet nurse. I wanted to read a few pages of the new storybook, but I felt so sleepy as soon as I opened the book."
