Lanqin felt a warmth in her heart and smiled shyly at Fourth Master. Fourth Master said not to bring in any new people, but how could he really not bring in any? Now that she heard Fourth Master say this, Lanqin felt a little more at ease.
Belchuk thought Lanqin was lamenting that she couldn't be by Ushiha's side after her marriage, so she tilted her head and leaned against Lanqin's chest, saying coquettishly, "I'm still here... Sister is getting married, so let Belchuk keep Mother company..."
Lanqin glanced sideways, deliberately pushed Bechuk aside, and tapped Bechuk's forehead with her finger, laughing, "Come on, you'll get married sooner or later, who knows if you'll even remember your mother then..." Bechuk's face immediately turned bright red, and he hid behind Fourth Master, "Father, look... Mother is making fun of me again..."
The family was happy and harmonious again...
Suddenly, Lanqin remembered the gifts she had brought for her nephew, so she had the servants bring all the gifts up. Hongli helped open the box and was so surprised that he couldn't speak. Biechuke went over to take a look and burst into laughter, clutching his stomach.
Bechuk picked up a somewhat old cloth doll and handed it to Ushiha, smiling, "Sister, look, do you still remember it?"
Ushiha exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't this the kind of rag doll we used to play with when we were kids?"
Hongli took out a small drum, tried shaking it, and it made a familiar sound. He exclaimed excitedly, "I didn't expect Mother to have preserved these toys so well. I thought they were all lost..."
Fourth Master gave Lanqin a thumbs-up in admiration and exclaimed, "Your mother has so many skills, your father hasn't even fully discovered them yet..." After saying that, the four of them burst into laughter.
Lanqin didn't take it seriously. While carefully arranging the toys, she introduced them, saying, "Don't underestimate these toys. I went to great lengths to get them. I moved them all the way from the Prince's Mansion to the Palace, and I often take them out to wipe them clean, all so that I can give them to my little nephew to play with... It will also let him know what his mother played with when she was a child. How meaningful is that..."
Lanqin also specially commissioned many modern-style toys for the children. Although the craftsmen did not understand what she was talking about, they still made what Lanqin wanted. There were not only all kinds of dolls, but also spinning tops, rocking horses, small airplanes, and small trains. Hongli and Bechuk were dumbfounded.
"Mother, did you make all of this?" Hongli couldn't believe his eyes, but the Fourth Prince confidently answered for Lanqin: "Looking at these strange things, I don't need to guess to know they are Qin'er's masterpiece. I'm afraid you won't find a second person like her anywhere in the country..."
Lanqin broke out in a cold sweat and nodded awkwardly, secretly grateful for the ingenuity of modern people who had simply borrowed the idea.
Holding the toys, Hongli joked, "If these toys can be preserved well from generation to generation, they might become our family heirlooms..."
Bechuk woke up with a start and nodded excitedly in agreement: "Yes, yes, yes... When the older sister's child grows up, it will be passed on to the next child, and so on, generation after generation, and that's how it becomes a family heirloom!"
Lanqin smiled at the Fourth Prince, who was beaming with delight. He was playing with the Qing Dynasty Rubik's Cube designed by Lanqin, muttering, "It seems that all the rare treasures in my palace can't compare to these toys designed by your mother..."
Bechuk walked to Lanqin's side, pouting coquettishly, and said, "That daughter is already reserved with Mother, my child is second in line!"
Bechuk didn't realize there was anything wrong with what he said. Ushiha and Hongli chuckled secretly, while the Fourth Prince sighed, wondering who his daughter had taken after. Bechuk looked at everyone strangely, bewildered: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Lanqin was furious and bumped into Biechuke, pretending to be angry, saying, "You are still an unmarried princess, how can you say such shameless things... Your mother is worried for you..."
Bechuk then realized what was happening, and immediately blushed with embarrassment. He hurriedly covered his face with his hands, stomped his feet, and ran out.
Behind them, Fourth Master and the others burst into laughter...
