Chapter 27 Charming
The old man who suddenly rushed out during the meal was none other than Dr. Wang, who had taken leave some time ago to search for his missing granddaughter.
The old doctor, Wang, was dressed in rags and stood out from the people around him, but he didn't care about that and hurriedly took out a black box from his pocket and presented it.
"I returned to the capital in a hurry and happened to arrive just in time for the young lady's full moon celebration. In my haste, I forgot that I hadn't changed into a clean set of clothes. I hope the Marquis and the Heir Apparent will forgive me for my haste."
Chiu Chiu's eyes and nose twitched. She smelled the treasure's scent, the same scent as the gift from the uncle with the high-pitched voice!
Chirp's eyes were fixed intently on the lacquered wooden box: [My darlings, they're all Chirp's darlings!]
Su Junyao chuckled and helped the old physician Wang up with one hand, "It's truly commendable that Physician Wang, after traveling all this way, still remembered my daughter's full moon celebration!"
He welcomes anyone who offers his daughter a gift!
Physician Wang couldn't stay long; his newly found granddaughter was still waiting in the carriage outside. They had been separated for too long, and he was eager to return for their reunion.
"Following the prince's guidance, I indeed found my granddaughter in the east. I will never forget your great kindness!" said Physician Wang. "However, my granddaughter has just been found and needs someone to stay with her for the time being, so please allow me to take my leave now!"
Chiu Chiu nodded slightly, [Let my sister come and play with me, and I'll let her hug me.]
【Don't be afraid, hugs and kisses!】
She has this amazing ability!
Su Junyao suppressed his laughter at Qiuqiu's narcissism, "It's alright, the child is the most important. In the future, she can keep my Qiuqiu company when she's bored."
"My little chick is a lucky charm blessed by His Majesty's golden words, may it share in his good fortune!"
"Very well, very well!" Physician Wang readily agreed, completely oblivious to the changes in the people around him.
The little guy quickly ran over, his chubby head tilted up at Su Junyao, then slowly reached out his hand: "Can the little guy hug me?"
She's the older sister too!
Su Junyao was both amused and exasperated. What was she doing, hugging him?
The three-headed little guy was dropped by Chiu Chiu again.
The little girl wondered why her Uncle Su wasn't reacting, but before she could speak, someone grabbed her by the collar and lifted her up.
"Huh?"
Lu Wenzheng gently tapped her daughter on the head. "Your mother said she'll see you when she counts to three."
The little one's eyes widened, and without the slightest hesitation, he turned and ran, his little legs moving like wheels of fire.
Chuchu: [My sister's mom must be amazing!]
Su Junyao glanced at Lu Wenzheng. It was indeed quite impressive that she could tame such a reckless person.
Lu Wenzheng thought that other people's well-behaved little girls were cuter than her own little wild monkey. "Chirp, little chirp."
"Brother Su, what do you think of my son Yu'er? How about we arrange a betrothal between our children, making our family even closer!"
The father and daughter's pupils constricted, and they looked at each other as if they were idiots.
Chiu Chiu: [How dare you keep this little koi fish for yourself!]
Su Junyao was more decisive, picking up Qiuqiu and turning to leave.
So shameless!
Dream on!
Throughout the entire event, Chiu Chiu was like a rag doll that could only fake a smile, being held and shown off by her family.
Everyone wanted to share in the good fortune of the little lucky mascot personally appointed by His Majesty, and along the way, their hands felt like they were being touched raw by everyone.
After completing one round, Chiu Chiu's eyes were already glazed over.
Adults are so scary!
Yun Jinglan almost burst out laughing when she saw Qiuqiu lying on the bed with a look of utter disbelief on her face.
It's time to teach her a lesson about the "wickedness of human nature," otherwise she'll join in on any spectacle!
After the full moon, Jiujiu suddenly became silent. Yun Jinglan eavesdropped on her thoughts but didn't notice that she had any intention of going out for a walk.
He lay lazily in bed all day, either feeding or daydreaming.
"Why do I feel like Jiujiu has been listless lately, doing nothing but eating and sleeping?"
Qiuyue was sewing a rag doll for the little girl when she heard this, her hand trembled, and a little blood immediately welled up from her fingertip.
She looked at Yun Jinglan in surprise: "Our little lady is less than three months old. What else can she do besides feeding and sleeping?"
I've seen people who hope their daughters will become successful, but I've never seen a wife like this who hopes her daughter will become successful!
Yun Jinglan suddenly realized, oh right, their Qiuqiu is still a baby!
As long as the baby eats and drinks well, that's all that matters!
But Chuchu doesn't think that way; she's saving her big move!
Sister Dian Dian told her that children are cute and lovable.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon. What should we do during the New Year?
Receive red envelopes!
Only the cutest kids can receive big red envelopes!
Eat more and gain more energy to face the new year!
Su Junyao shook off the snow and warmed his hands before entering the house.
"Is Jiujiu awake?"
After Su Junyao kicked Zheng out last time, he discussed the events of the past few years with Yun Jinglan and realized that there were so many misunderstandings involved.
Once or twice could be considered a coincidence, but so many times...
Although the couple had spoken openly, they still seemed somewhat distant from each other.
Jiujiu actually became the bond between the two of them.
Yun Jinglan glanced at Qiuqiu, who was about to get even rounder, and pinched her cheek: "You're awake, trying to turn over."
After three months of rolling over and six months of sitting up, Qiuqiu has reached the stage of trying to roll over, but her movements look a bit strange.
Although she calls herself a little koi fish, the way she keeps waving her limbs makes her look more like a little turtle.
Hearing her father's voice, Chiu Chiu propped herself up on the bed with her hands, tilted her head back, and made babbling noises: "Daddy, you're back?"
Su Junyao played with Qiuqiu for a while, but seeing that he was about to make her cry, he quickly stopped and changed the subject: "His Majesty has given orders that Qiuqiu should be brought to the palace for the New Year's Eve banquet this year."
"With Jiujiu?" Yun Jinglan was slightly stunned. "Why?"
Jiujiu is just a little baby and she has no one around her, so it would be inconvenient for her to enter the palace. Why would she be allowed to enter the palace for no reason?
Su Junyao could vaguely guess what the emperor was thinking. The empress's daughter was a month older than Jiujiu, and there were no sisters of the same age in the palace. The empress had injured herself during childbirth, so sending Jiujiu along was also a good omen.
"The emperor's will is unpredictable. I don't expect Jiujiu to be favored by the royal family, I just hope she is safe."
Such a young child is being praised too much, which might attract resentment from others.
"Never mind, it's not a dangerous place after all. Just keep an eye on her on New Year's Eve."
Yun Jinglan nodded in agreement. This was the only thing she could do.
Jiujiu pricked up her ears and eavesdropped.
A New Year's Eve banquet at the Imperial Palace?
Wouldn't that be a great opportunity for her to show off her skills!
[Enter the palace and recruit followers!]
She doesn't want to be cannon fodder anymore; she wants to play the leading lady!
Xiao Yuan's face was full of determination; she could already imagine the wonderful scene of leading a group of underlings to roam the capital in the future!
Little toes sticking up: [Chirp chirp, that's awesome!]
Su Junyao and Yun Jinglan looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths twitched.
"Be careful that day and don't let her touch Prince Fu Ning inappropriately."
He felt that Qiuqiu was the kind of person who could lead the princess to demolish the palace!
Yun Jinglan wholeheartedly agreed, nodding solemnly: "I will not allow her to get close to any prince or princess!"
