"Haha, sister, are you starving? Come, let me get you some more food."
The aunt in the cafeteria snatched the plate from Lan'er's hand and filled her with dishes. Only then did Lan'er come to her senses and thanked her repeatedly.
Sitting at an empty table, Lan'er stared at the delicious food, swallowed her saliva, and immediately picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
The delicious and warm dishes instantly soothed the anxiety in Lan'er's heart, and the heart that had been hanging in the air for many days finally settled down.
A hot tear slid down her cheek, and Lan'er sobbed and murmured, not knowing to whom she was talking.
"Thanks..."
This good deed made Qin Shihuang's reputation for kindness spread throughout the world. No one talked about his tyranny anymore, and people's misunderstanding of Qin Shihuang gradually faded.
Inside the Qinian Palace, Chu Yuening was playing with her baby in her arms.
Zaizai has been studying with Xiao He for more than three months. He studies diligently and hard every day, which is really rare for a two-year-old baby.
After all, children are at an age where they are lively and active. Even adults may not be able to sit still if they are confined in front of a desk and read boring books.
But Zaizai persisted. His well-behaved and sensible appearance made Chu Yuening feel distressed, so she asked the child's father to take two days off.
Chu Yuening kissed the little dumpling's chubby face, which was so sweet and cute that her heart melted.
At this moment, the system, which had not spoken for a long time, suddenly began to broadcast.
"Congratulations to the host for refining refined salt and gaining 300 merit points."
"Congratulations to the host for popularizing a variety of vegetables, enriching the people's diet, and gaining 300 points of merit."
"Congratulations to the host for changing the fate of 200,000 people and gaining 2,000 points of merit."
The familiar mechanical electronic sound startled Chu Yuening.
Is the system cheating?
The host's complaints were really rude, and the system's tone became resentful.
"Host, this system will not die. It just went to the headquarters for training for a period of time."
"Haha... I see. What did Xiao Yiyi train you for?"
Chu Yuening was immersed in the gentleness of life and had long forgotten about the system. Now she inevitably felt a little guilty and quickly changed the subject to avoid being exposed.
Hearing the host's concern, the system snorted arrogantly, but the panda dumpling on the light screen was rolling around happily.
"It's nothing special. It's just to help our system achieve performance goals by the end of the year."
"Hahahahaha... Your system still does this? So should we call you a labor censor?"
“…”
The system was speechless, but after thinking carefully, it realized that the host was right! It was just a miserable working system.
My heart was suddenly stabbed hard, and the system shut down.
After Chu Yuening finished laughing, she didn't get any response from the system. Only then did she realize that she might have touched the sore spot of this working system administrator.
A sense of guilt arose spontaneously, and Chu Yuening tried to make amends carefully.
"How about I help you with your year-end performance?"
"real?!"
"Of course, but the exact amount depends on my dear child~"
The cheerful electronic sound of the system rang out, and Chu Yuening breathed a sigh of relief. Then a smile returned to her face, but her starry eyes were filled with cunning.
She is best at making big promises.
Chu Yuening held up the baby's round little face, stared at the pair of clear big eyes, and asked in a soft voice.
"Zizi has been studying very hard lately and has done very well~"
"So, mother decided to reward the good boy. Mother will satisfy whatever you want~"
At first, Ying Zhao was dizzy with praise from his mother. His little face flushed and his eyes narrowed into slits due to his smile.
But when she heard that there was a reward, her eyes widened instantly, and her thick eyelashes fluttered like little fans.
"Mom, is anything really possible?"
"Of course, even the stars in the sky are fine."
Chu Yuening replied with a smile, this was the cub she had nurtured and raised, so of course she had to spoil him to the utmost.
At this moment, A'mu was like an omnipotent fairy, and Ying Zhao's eyes were full of admiration and love.
But what kind of reward should he ask for? Ying Zhao bit his finger, feeling conflicted.
Sweet and savory snacks? Well, he still has his share today.
More paintbrushes? But his two little hands can't paint them all...
The little guy's thoughtful expression was so adorable that Chu Yuening couldn't help but take a few more puffs. She wasn't in a hurry and waited patiently for the kid's decision.
After a while, a flash of inspiration came to Ying Zhao's mind. He suddenly raised his eyelids, his eyes sparkling, and hugged his mother's neck and cheered in a baby voice.
"Mother, Zhao Zhao wants a younger brother or sister!"
"With a younger brother or sister, I can play on the slide with Zhao Zhao!"
The childish words echoed in the hall, and the palace maids lowered their heads and tried to suppress their laughter. The little prince had obviously misunderstood the queen's meaning.
However, it would be nice to have a few more little princes and princesses. The little prince is too lonely alone.
This shocking statement caught Chu Yuening off guard. When she realized what was happening, her face flushed red, her eyelashes drooped, and she avoided Zizi's expectant gaze.
Ahhh! Taishe is dead!
She could imagine that gossip about her would spread all over the palace tomorrow...
Did Ah Zheng tell Zi Zi about this? Chu Yuening bit her red lips in shame and anger.
Although she and A Zheng are planning to have another baby, she just wants to let nature take its course.
As Chu Yuening remained silent, the hall also fell silent. Only Ying Zhao tilted his head and blinked in confusion.
Just as Ying Zhao was about to break the silence, a tall figure walked in with the gait of a dragon and a tiger.
"Father!"
After seeing that it was his father, Ying Zhao happily opened his arms for a hug, with admiration all over his little face.
Since the last time I sat on my father's shoulders, the relationship between father and son has become obviously closer.
Ying Zheng laughed heartily, picked up the excited kid and placed him in his arms, then sat down next to the obviously absent-minded woman.
"Yuening, what happened?"
"Huh? Nothing..."
"Mother just said she would reward Zhaozhao's younger brother and sister!"
Ying Zhao clutched his father's clothes and answered excitedly, as if he had already seen the scene of him playing happily with his younger brothers and sisters.
Oh no, I didn’t, baby, I haven’t promised you yet!
Chu Yuening suddenly rushed over and covered the cub's mouth while it was talking nonsense.
The woman's cheeks were rosy, and her eyes were full of shyness and annoyance. Ying Zheng couldn't help but laugh and held the beauty who threw herself into his arms tightly.
"Yuening, once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back."
"I..."
Chu Yuening didn't know how to defend herself for a moment, and her starry eyes were covered with a thin layer of mist.
It's true that she had promised Zhao Zhao first, and as a parent she couldn't go back on her word, but...
The smile in Ying Zheng's phoenix eyes grew wider. He rescued the little boy's mouth and continued to coax him patiently.
"So does Zhao Zhao want a younger brother or a younger sister?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Zhao's big eyes rolled around, revealing the mischievousness that only a child can have.
Humph, adults make the choices!
He answered without hesitation.
"Zhao Zhao wants them all!"
