Chapter 32
The next day, Sui Sui was still sleeping soundly in bed when she heard her brother calling softly, "Sui Sui, Sui Sui?"
Sui Sui hummed a few times, wrinkled his little nose, stretched out his chubby little paws and waved them a few times, then covered his forehead with his hands.
Seeing the little chubby kid holding his round head with his hands, pretending to cover his ears, Jiang Mingyan felt his heart soften at the self-deceiving little chubby kid, and his tone couldn't help but become even softer: "Sui Sui, can't you pay it back? We're going to Shanhe City today. Doesn't Sui Sui want to eat the Yunhai Cake?"
"Didn't Sui Sui say yesterday that she wanted to bring Yunhai Cake for Uncle Chen?"
My brother's voice was filled with smile and his tone was gentle.
Suisui's sleepy little head only heard the three words "Yunhai Cake".
The little fat boy recalled the sweet taste and couldn't help smacking his lips, mumbling: "Gao Gao... sweet..."
But Sui Sui is still sleepy!
Gaogao, let's wait until Sui Sui wakes up before eating~
My brother will help Sui Sui look after Gao Gao and won't let him run away.
A strange picture inexplicably popped up in the little fat boy's mind.
Two matchstick-like thin legs stretched out from under the delicate and small pastry and ran forward with a clattering sound.
But before Gaobing could run far, his brother came down from the sky wearing a red cloak and knocked Gaobing to the ground with a thud.
Hehehe, brother is awesome~
But why doesn’t my brother wear the gray robes that Sui Sui picked for him?
As he thought about it, the little fat boy became irritated by the image he had created. He muttered angrily, "The gray robe is the best!"
So, Suisui turned over, and his round little body arched up and down, pushing his furry little head into the quilt.
Protect yourself with a blanket!
It’s time to go to bed!
Get away from these nasty scenes!
Once covered with the quilt, the light dimmed and the sounds from the outside world seemed to fade away.
I felt sleepy again, and this time, my brother seemed to have given up.
Sui Sui only heard a few clear and joyful laughs, and then felt someone gently patting his exposed little butt, and the cave became quiet.
But the little fat boy could feel that his brother had not left and was always by Suisui's side.
Therefore, Suisui fell asleep peacefully in the silence.
Then, Sui Sui dreamed that his brother was wearing a red cloak and fighting with a huge pastry monster that was a hundred times as tall as Sui Sui.
After three hundred rounds of fighting, the elder brother finally succeeded in capturing the giant pastry monster and returned it to the plate.
Sui Sui cheered beside him, but at the same time, he thought angrily: Brother doesn't even wear a gray robe!
The little fat boy was angry and was about to walk on his short legs to find his brother.
However, before the little fat boy could reach his brother, he stepped on empty air and woke up from his sleep.
"Brother!" The little fellow opened his big dark eyes, and before he could even see his surroundings clearly, he yelled in an angry voice, "Brother is bad!"
"Hey, what happened to our Suisui? Why is he angry as soon as he woke up?" A familiar male voice came from the side, but it was not his brother's.
Suisui turned her head and saw a young man in a white robe and a golden crown waving a jade fan in his hand, his handsome face full of smiles.
It’s Tang Jiu.
Sui Sui stared blankly at Tang Jiu and muttered softly, "Is Sui Sui still dreaming?"
"Brother is here." A thin and strong hand touched Sui Sui's messy soft hair, and then Sui Sui was held in a familiar and strong embrace.
"Brother!" Sui Sui quickly stretched out her chubby little hands to hug her brother's neck. After a while, she quietly turned back to look at Tang Jiu with a confused look on her face.
Looking at the little creature in his arms, who looked like some confused little animal, a soft smile seeped out of Jiang Mingyan's dark eyes: "What did Sui Sui dream about?"
"Brother won't wear the gray robe!" When Jiang Mingyan mentioned this, the unhappiness that had been suppressed because of seeing Tang Jiu came to the surface again, and Suisui puffed up her little face in anger.
"When did your brother stop wearing a gray robe?" Tang Jiu was amused. He looked at Jiang Mingyan and said in a dark tone, "He wants to weld that gray robe to his body. He would pull every passing dog over to take a good look at his precious gray robe."
"Brother didn't pull Dahei." Sui Sui retorted subconsciously, pouting: "Tang Jiu is so annoying!"
"Little rascal." Tang Jiu muttered, "You're riding in my car and you're calling me annoying."
Sui Sui then looked around.
They were now in a spacious, square space. To the left, right, and back were long wooden benches covered with thick white blankets. Jiang Mingyan sat on the left, while Tang Jiu lazily leaned on the right.
The two wooden doors in front, engraved with continuous honeysuckle patterns, were tightly closed, and the sound of the wind whistling outside could be faintly heard.
The wooden table in the center of the space was put away and replaced by a small bed engraved with a ruyi pattern. The small pillow inside was pushed to the corner, and the small quilt was also crumpled into a messy ball.
Suisui was just sleeping soundly in her little bed.
"Brother, where are we going?" Sui Sui leaned close to his brother's ear and asked in a low voice.
"Let's go to Shanhe City." Jiang Mingyan stroked the little fat boy's small back and reminded him gently, "We are going to the auction house. The black hedge grass will be auctioned there. Doesn't Suisui still need to buy Yunhai cake for Uncle Chen?"
Sui Sui thought about it with a serious face, and finally remembered what happened yesterday.
"Sui Sui remembers it now." The little fat boy said in a baby voice: "I just forgot it~"
"Have we set off yet?" The little guy tilted his head and asked in a childish voice.
"Yes, we've been on the road for a long time." Tang Jiu interrupted lazily, "Sui Sui slept really well today. When your brother carried you into Tang's Pharmacy, you fell asleep in his arms. After we got on the Pegasus carriage, Sui Sui lay down in the crib and slept even more soundly, even snoring a little."
“You’re lying.” Sui Sui snored, “Brother, snoring, Sui Sui is a good sleeper, she doesn’t snore.”
Tang Jiu suddenly choked.
He had definitely made up the snoring thing. The little fat boy slept very quietly, his long black eyelashes drooping, his soft little face innocent and adorable, one glance at it and your heart melted. But if you said the little fat boy slept well...
He glanced at the messy little bed, and looked strangely at the young swordsman who was holding the baby calmly.
Jiang Mingyan put the small bed into Lan Qiuying Bracelet and looked back coldly.
Tang Jiu could see a hint of threat in those narrow and deep phoenix eyes.
He shut up silently.
Sui Sui was completely unaware of the turbulent undercurrent beneath the calm. He stepped on his brother's leg, slowly turned around, and proudly thrust out his belly towards Tang Jiu: "Sui Sui is so delicious every day! Brother, children need to sleep more and eat more often, so that they can be fat and healthy!"
"Yes, your brother is right." Tang Jiu's expression was complicated.
Sui Sui didn't care about him. After refuting Tang Jiu and showing off his excellent sleep, the little fat boy tugged at his brother's sleeve and started asking for food: "Brother, Sui Sui is hungry!"
Jiang Mingyan glanced at Tang Jiu calmly, and when his eyes fell on the fat little boy staring at him eagerly on his lap, his expression softened: "Is Sui Sui hungry? How about we have some meat this morning?"
Sui Sui puffed out his cheeks and replied sullenly, "Okay."
Jiang Mingyan couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips and rubbed the little guy's round head.
Because they were in a Pegasus carriage, Jiang Mingyan did not take out a handkerchief, but instead used a dust-removing spell on Sui Sui.
Suisui didn't care about the difference and just stared at his brother.
The little fat boy was so hungry that his stomach was growling. Although he didn't want to eat meat, he still opened his mouth wide and ate the small bowl of meat paste clean.
After the meal, he picked up the small bowl filled with diluted spiritual milk and drank it all in one gulp.
"Sui Sui is full~" Finally, Sui Sui leaned on his brother's strong chest, touched his round belly with his chubby little hands, and announced softly.
"Are you full?" Tang Jiu kept staring at the little guy in curiosity, his expression as if he was observing a little kitten concentrating on eating.
As soon as Sui Sui announced this, he immediately responded, "We are in heaven now. Sui Sui, do you want to see the scenery outside?"
"Sui Sui, come over here, okay? Let Brother Tang Jiu hug you." He revealed his true intentions and whispered to the little fat boy, "The scenery outside is really beautiful. The Pegasus carriage has its own barrier, so the hurricane outside can't reach Sui Sui's little face."
Sui Sui's heart is moved.
The little fat boy subconsciously looked up at his brother.
"Does Sui Sui want to go?" Jiang Mingyan said slowly, "If Sui Sui wants to go, go ahead. Brother is watching. Tang Jiu won't bully Sui Sui."
"When have I ever bullied Sui Sui?" Tang Jiu was dissatisfied.
The two brothers ignored him. Jiang Mingyan looked at the fat boy encouragingly, encouraging Suisui to make his own decision.
Sui Sui blinked her eyes, smiled and leaned forward to give Jiang Mingyan a big kiss: "Then Sui Sui will go~"
"Go." Jiang Mingyan gently pinched the little guy's soft face, his voice gentle.
Sui Sui crossed her legs and said, "Brother will help Sui Sui to wear shoes~"
Before Jiang Mingyan could say anything, Tang Jiu said actively, "No, no, I'll hold you."
As he said that, he stood up and walked over, grabbing the milk ball from Jiang Mingyan's arms.
Before he could react, he was suddenly lifted up from his brother's arms. Sui Sui's eyes immediately opened wide, and then he giggled, with an eager expression, as if he wanted to try a few more times.
"Be gentle." Jiang Mingyan couldn't help but feel a little worried and frowned.
"It's very light now." Tang Jiu sat back down with Sui Sui in his arms, stroking the fat little cub's round, soft belly with satisfaction. He said lazily, "Look how happy Sui Sui is smiling."
"No!" Sui Sui stretched out his chubby little hands to protect his belly, and said unhappily: "Sui Sui wants to see the beautiful scenery."
Sui Sui has already been hugged by Tang Jiu, so it’s time for Tang Jiu to show Sui Sui the scenery outside!
The little fat boy has very clear thinking.
Tang Jiu was amused by his "you can't fool me" look and reached out to press the wooden wall next to him.
"Click." With a light sound, the right side of the car wall disappeared from the position close to the roof to the lower edge slightly above the bench, revealing the vast scenery outside.
Suisui cheered and poked his little head out to take a look.
Just as Tang Jiu said, there was an invisible barrier outside, which blocked the oncoming strong wind and protected Suisui in the barrier, so there was no need to worry about falling down.
"Wow!" Sui Sui looked at the rolling mountains and endless greenery below, his round eyes full of amazement.
"Does it look good?" Tang Jiu asked with a smile.
"It looks great!" The little guy nodded vigorously and said happily, "Happy every year!"
"If you like it, take a closer look." Tang Jiu tentatively stretched out his hand again and placed it on the little guy's messy head.
Sui Sui ignored him this time, staring outside with her round black eyes shining.
As long as Tang Jiu doesn't disturb Sui Sui from looking at the beautiful scenery outside, it's okay to touch the furry soft ears~
Suisui didn't return to her brother's arms until it was time for lunch.
After filling his little stomach, Suisui slowly fell asleep in his brother's arms.
When Suisui woke up, they were almost at Shanhe City.
The wooden door in front, which was engraved with honeysuckle patterns, had been opened at some point. Sui Sui nestled in her brother's arms. When she looked up, the towering city wall came into view.
Shanhe City is close to the Dusk Mountains.
Compared with Wu'an City, the walls of Shanhe City are taller and thicker, standing quietly in the endless greenery, like a sleeping beast, with a sense of wildness and vicissitudes of life.
Jiang Mingyan looked at the solemn yet prosperous city that still stood tall after enduring wars and time, and hugged the soft little fat baby in his arms tightly.
He could hear Sui Sui's soft breathing and smell the familiar sweet scent of the fat boy. Under his palm, he could feel Sui Sui's small, soft back, which rose and fell slightly with her breathing.
Jiang Mingyan became strangely calm.
He held onto that heavy weight.
Thus, the whole world was held in his arms.
