Chapter 125 Chapter 125 "Brother, don't be bad..."
Li Shuyao stopped talking. She stared at the two little kids on the couch with her moist almond-shaped eyes for a while, her lips slightly pursed, looking a little unhappy.
Yinzhen knew what his mother was thinking at a glance, so he put down his toys, crawled over, and nestled his round body into Li Shuyao's arms.
Li Shuyao patted his little butt unhappily.
Yinzhen pretended not to see it, put his arms around Li Shuyao's neck, and whispered softly, "Don't be sad, mother. If... mother really wants, my brother and I can sleep with you."
Li Shuyao: That’s not necessary.
One cub was enough to give her a headache, but if there were two...
The scene is terrifying just thinking about it.
She unceremoniously pushed the little boy named "Yinzhen" out of her arms.
Then she looked at little An'er who was tilting his head to watch the two of them interacting: "An'er, are you sure you want to sleep with your brother?"
Little An'er nodded, his eyes wandering for a moment before he also crawled over and patted the back of Li Shuyao's hand. "Don't be sad, Madam Ling. An'er will play with you tomorrow, okay?"
"Not tomorrow. Brother Yinqi will be here tomorrow, and An'er wants to go with me to play with Brother Yinqi." Yinzhen directly changed the subject.
"Yin, Yinqi?" Xiao An'er looked at him curiously after hearing that.
Little Yinzhen nodded heavily, the flesh on his face swaying as he spoke seriously, "Brother Yinqi is also An'er's brother. He's much younger than you. He can't speak, can't walk properly, plays games slowly, eats slowly, snores when he sleeps, and cries like a big red peach."
After a pause, he continued, "Brother Yinqi likes me, and he will definitely like An'er too. If he knew that An'er came to Changchun Palace but didn't play with him, he would definitely be sad. He would think that maybe brother An'er didn't like him."
This is just kidding.
Li Shuyao rolled her eyes ungracefully.
But the two cubs were completely immersed in the conversation and didn't notice the speechless expression on her face.
"Smaller than... An'er?" An'er was shocked. He thought he was very small.
Yinzhen looked at him for a few times and said, "I'm younger than you, but, but..."
But in terms of body shape, they seem to be similar?
Li Shuyao listened silently, looked An'er up and down a few times, and became more silent.
Yinzhen...don't you know yet why Yinqi likes him?
If Yinzhen knew about this, would he still be so enthusiastic about matchmaking for his two younger brothers?
She was a little curious.
"But what?" Xiao An was also curious.
Yinzhen thought for a moment and said, "But because brother Yinqi eats a lot and grows fast, his hands, feet, and head are almost the same as An'er's."
Little An'er exclaimed "Wow" and held his round chin with both hands, "Is it the same as An'er?"
He thought for a moment and then asked, "Is my brother good at eating?"
Yinzhen didn't understand why his younger brother was so obsessed with "eating", but he nodded and said, "Yes, brother Yinqi is very good at eating."
He also has his own rules. Before eating rice porridge, he must drink a few sips of milk first. The honey in the milk cannot be too much or too little. He eats every mouthful of rice porridge carefully and seriously, and will never let the rice porridge stick to his lips and chin. Otherwise, he must wipe it clean before continuing to howl.
I don't like hard snacks and fruits. I prefer soft, sweet, and juicy ones. After every bite, I check if there is any juice around my mouth. After every five bites, I look down to see if the pocket on my chest is dirty.
He is not a picky eater, but he will smile when he eats soft vegetable leaves, and frown when he eats hard vegetable stems. He also chews a little faster, but he will never say that it tastes bad or he doesn't want to eat it anymore.
Yinzhen counted them one by one.
Li Shuyao was so careful and rigorous that she even suspected that when the kid was eating, he was treating the video of Yinqi eating as a food broadcast?
Otherwise, how could he know so much about it?
As she thought about this, she nonchalantly fanned the two little kids chatting on the couch.
When Yinzhen got excited, he couldn't help but stand up and dance: "... He was lying on the doorstep like this, with his feet dangling in the air. The maids were scared, afraid that he would accidentally fall down and hit his head..."
Li Shuyao: "..."
She opened her eyes and looked at the two little cubs in front of her with identical bald heads. Well, looking at it this way, her cub Yinzhen's head was the biggest and roundest. She didn't know where she got the confidence to say that Yinqi had a big head.
"Wow!"
"Wow!!"
"Really? Really?"
An'er on the other side was also very happy. Since he was born, he had never seen a baby like him.
For a moment, I was full of curiosity about the younger brother Yinqi that the little brother mentioned.
"Of course it's true. And last time, we went to the pond in the Imperial Garden to see the turtles..."
"...There's a parrot in the aviary...and the cat named Snowball..."
"...My eldest brother and the prince have their own horses, so tall and handsome. My eldest brother even said that when I turn six, he'll give me a pony, a red one..."
"And Tong's mother..."
Li Shuyao yawned out of boredom; she felt a little sleepy.
But the two little kids next to them were getting more and more excited as they talked. Yinzhen almost wanted to move his whole body in front of An'er, but An'er didn't notice at all. As they were talking, the two kids suddenly held hands and rolled around on the couch twice, making a "dong dong dong" sound.
Li Shuyao opened her eyes and asked in confusion: "?"
What kind of new chatting posture is this?
She straightened up and realized that because they were too engaged and convincing in their conversation, thin beads of sweat had appeared on the foreheads of Yinzhen and An'er. A few hairs were drooping listlessly, sticking to their foreheads, which looked very funny.
"Pfft," she laughed.
The two little cubs stopped talking at the same time and looked at her, "Mother, what's wrong?"
"Your Highness?"
Li Shuyao waved her hands. "Nothing, just a little sleepy."
She asked, "Do you guys still want to talk? Do you want to go to bed first and talk again when you see Yinqi tomorrow?"
Maybe I can also guide Yinqi and teach him to speak sooner.
Yinzhen thought for a while. He actually hadn't said enough, but...
His eyes wandered over Li Shuyao's face for a moment, and he remembered that his mother had played with his younger brother An'er for a long time this afternoon.
My mother, who would never stand if she could sit, had to complete the task assigned by Khan Ama and Ukuma Ma. So, she went alone, wearing high heels, to sneak from the distant Imperial Garden to the Cining Palace without being seen. Then, she came out of the Cining Palace and quietly returned to the Imperial Garden to settle her younger brother An'er.
You must be exhausted after this whole day, right?
Thinking of this, the caring baby suddenly came online——
He let go of An'er's hand and rubbed it on her sweaty face and forehead a few times. Then he crawled over and pushed Li Shuyao with both hands, "Mom, you're sleepy, go to bed first."
"Brother An'er and I are going back to the warm room first. We can talk in bed later."
Li Shuyao pinched his nose and said unhappily, "Beds are for sleeping, not for chatting."
Moreover, the warm room was so close to the main hall, and the baby's voice was so sharp and thin. When he got excited about the conversation, he would roll and jump, clap his hands and shout "woo woo woo woo", making the bed rumble. How could she fall asleep?
She pulled one of them over with one hand and said, "Be good. It's late. Go to bed first. Mommy will play with you all day tomorrow, okay?"
Yinzhen was a little skeptical when he heard this, "A whole day?"
He asked, "Aren't you going to play with Yi's mother?"
Li Shuyao took it for granted, "Play, but you can ask your mother Yi to come over to Changchun Palace to play. The two of us adults will play with you three little kids and won't go out, okay?"
An'er didn't say anything, just blinked his eyes, looked at Yinzhen, and then at Li Shuyao.
He and his mother had never gotten along like this before, so he didn't know what to do next, so he just observed first.
Yinzhen puffed up his cheeks and muttered softly like a little pufferfish, "It's not so good, because Mother is too childish. Whenever there's any fruit or snacks, she eats them until only a little is left before giving them to me and my brother. The same goes for toys. Mother Yi never favors us. She gives all the fun things to Mother first, and only gives them to my brother and me when they're broken. Sometimes, she even makes my brother and I have to coax Mother... She wasn't like this when we were playing in Zhongcui Palace. Brother Yinzhi and Brother Changsheng's Mothers..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Shuyao slapped him hard on the butt.
Li Shuyao was very unhappy: "What do you mean I'm too childish?"
Yinzhen was shocked, and realized that he was too happy today because of his brother An'er. He lost his caution for a moment and even said out loud the words that he had only dared to complain quietly in his heart before.
He looked panicked, covering his mouth with both hands and shaking his head frantically, trying to get away with it.
Li Shuyao narrowed her eyes and could barely make out from the tone that the kid was saying, "No, I didn't say those words."
She was suspicious: "Who said that?"
Yinzhen's eyes rolled around twice: "Hmmmm."
"Don't know? If you don't know, then who would know, Yinqi, Yinzhi, or Changsheng?"
Yinzhen didn't dare to speak.
Let mother guess it herself.
He dropped the hand that was covering his mouth and began to struggle frantically in Li Shuyao's arms.
Li Shuyao had no choice but to let go of An'er, bent a few slender fingers, and flicked Yinzhen's forehead lightly, "Don't move."
There is so little space on the couch. What if the wheels fall off?
After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath, calmed down her anger a little, and said, "Mother will ask someone to send you back to the warm room."
Little Yinzhen let out an "ow" and covered the place where Li Shuyao had hit him with his two fat hands.
An'er immediately came over and blew air on him.
Li Shuyao waved her hand and called Tian Jiarou and Yue Shu over. Together, they lifted little Yinzhen off the couch.
When Xiao Aner was halfway through shouting "Whoosh", the brother in front of him disappeared. Then his body felt lighter and his feet dangled in the air for a few times, as if something was hanging on them. He was soon let down again, and his brother's face was still in front of him.
He blinked and realized that it was Empress Ling who carried him to the ground.
He didn't have time to think more, because the little brother was still holding his forehead and shouting "It hurts", so he hurriedly moved closer and blew hard on his brother's face as if he was using all his strength.
"Okay, stop pretending." Li Shuyao couldn't stand it anymore.
She knew her own child well. He was tough since he was young. He dared to jump under the bed as soon as he learned to crawl, and climb up the tree as soon as he learned to walk. There was no place in the entire Changchun Palace where he had not been. How could he be in so much pain if she hit his head?
He just wanted to avoid questioning.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, little Yinzhen laughed and put down his hand.
I thought that when An'er found out that he had been deceived, he would be angry and scold him, just like his brother Yinzhi.
Unexpectedly, Xiao An'er seemed to have not noticed at all. His face was full of heartache. He stretched out a short fat finger and carefully touched the red mark on his forehead, "Brother, does it hurt?"
"Brother's head is so red, is it bad? Does it mean he needs to take medicine?"
As she spoke, she frowned again, "Medicine is so bitter, but, but I have some candies, hidden under my pillow. Mother hasn't found them for two months. I'm a little reluctant to eat them. Tomorrow, I'll go to the ancestors and get the candies out. I'll give them all to my brother, okay?"
"Brother, don't break down..."
Yinzhen and Li Shuyao were both stunned.
Then they looked at each other, and the same thought popped up in their minds at the same time: I really deserve to die.
