Chapter 82 Chapter 82 He doesn’t want to play!
Meanwhile, Li Shuyao continued to chatter away. She asked Nanny Yan, "This brat, oh no, I mean, how much savings does Yinzhen have in his little treasury?"
Nanny Yan: “…”
She tried hard to pretend she hadn't heard the first four words the Empress blurted out, and said with a solemn face, "Your Majesty, the inventory hasn't been completed yet."
Li Shuyao hissed softly, "So many?"
She was a little envious.
Nanny Yan nodded, then silently glanced at her, continuing, "The palace maids are currently busy counting the gifts sent to the young prince from various palaces. As for the gifts for the Empress, they can only begin recording them after the young prince's are counted."
"Me too?"
Li Shuyao's almond-shaped eyes lit up instantly, and her expression showed some surprise.
Nanny Yan nodded again, "That's natural."
No matter who he forgets about the gift, he will never forget his wife.
Li Shuyao's slightly depressed mood suddenly became happy again, and she no longer thought about the boy's warehouses and savings.
She stroked little Yinzhen's soft chin with her fingers for a few times, then leisurely withdrew her hand and turned to ask Nanny Yan, "What are you talking about?"
Nanny Yan explained the gifts one by one according to the order in which each palace gave them.
Li Shuyao listened very attentively, blinking her almond-shaped eyes and asking a few questions from time to time, without shifting her attention at all to the small swaddling clothes beside her.
Little Yinzhen in the cradle was in a daze for who knows how long before he slowly came to his senses. His big, dark eyes looked at Li Shuyao with a scrutiny that he himself didn't even notice.
I always feel that this mother is very different from his original mother.
Shouldn't he be alone?
Or was it that Changshengtian heard his heart and allowed him to get his wish and find a brand new mother?
When he thought of this possibility, little Yinzhen suddenly became excited. He clenched his little fists and made a "quack" sound. A series of crystal clear bubbles came out from the corners of his mouth, and he made a continuous "snoring" sound.
Li Shuyao briefly regained her composure from Nanny Yan's description, glanced down at him, then pulled over a small piece of swaddling cloth that was wrapped around him and casually wiped the foam off the edge of his little mouth.
Then he listened attentively to Nanny Yan again.
Tian Jiarou and Yue Shu watched her actions from the side, and twitched their lips speechlessly.
“…”
*
Little Yinzhen didn't look very good when he was born, his skin was a little dull and wrinkled.
Although Li Shuyao did not dislike him, she still felt a little regretful in her heart. She always felt that her little Yinzhen could no longer be the cutest and best-looking baby in the Forbidden City.
However, after just a few days, she was surprised to find that little Yinzhen had changed.
And it becomes more beautiful and refined day by day.
Her eyes, as big as black grapes, were moist and translucent, as if filled with sparkling stars. Her eyelashes were thick and curled, her nose was high, her lips were red, and her little face looked white with a hint of pink, soft and smooth, like a little peach in March, so adorable, but without a head...
Uh, cough cough.
In short, the more I watch Li Shuyao, the more I like her.
She has gradually been able to sit up in bed in the past few days.
After she was able to sit up, the first thing she did was to hold little Yinzhen in her arms impatiently, and she felt that she could not get enough of looking at him.
Poor little Yinzhen, he had never felt such strong maternal love in his previous life or this life. His cheeks turned red again and again because of her straightforward words, and he didn't know where to look.
— Little angel, little cutie, sweetheart, little darling, little Zhenzhen… and words like “mother loves you the most” and other lewd words…
like?
Does she even know what she is talking about?
Now you don’t call him “little brat” anymore?
Humph, a fickle woman.
Little Yinzhen kicked his feet in frustration, and two small bubbles came out of his mouth uncontrollably.
But this time, Li Shuyao did not just pull the swaddling cloth to wipe him, but used a soft silk handkerchief to carefully wipe away the water marks on his mouth with a look of love in her eyes.
Her long, inky hair fell from her shoulders and fluttered on little Yinzhen's cheeks. He suddenly sneezed with a "ha-che" sound.
Li Shuyao even found it strange to see him sneeze. She called Nanny Yan and the others over with a smile on her face, "Look, he can sneeze! It's really amazing."
Such a magical little baby was born from her belly.
——Li Shuyao sighed in her heart for who knows how many times.
Nanny Yan and others have begun to get used to their queen's "fussing".
Nanny Yan smiled and said, "When the little prince grows up a little, can roll over, sit up straight, crawl, jump, and walk, then Your Majesty will be surprised no later than now."
Li Shuyao shook her head, her whole attention still on the little Yinzhen in her arms, and murmured in a voice only she could hear: "That's different."
As for how they are different?
Li Shuyao was also a little confused.
Anyway, whenever she thought about the little life she had created, she would feel…excited? Or nervous? Or scared?
But there is more hope.
It is no exaggeration to say that these past few days, before going to bed, she would indulge in deep and immersed reverie about what kind of mother she would be in the future, how she would teach Yinzhen to be an upright and kind person, and that he could not be blindly kind, he had to learn to protect himself first, and then this and that... blah blah.
The more I thought about her, the more excited I became and I couldn't sleep at all.
If it weren't for Nanny Yan staring at her without blinking as she closed her eyes as she slept, she would probably have thought about it until dawn!
Little Yinzhen didn't know what his new mother was saying. When he heard what Nanny Yan said, he let out a very clear "Ah".
It seemed as if he was echoing what Nanny Yan said.
Li Shuyao immediately became dissatisfied. She reached out and pinched the bulging cheeks of little Yinzhen, "Who do you listen to?"
Nanny Yan was watching with fear and trepidation.
But little Yinzhen was keenly aware that although his mother looked a little embarrassed and angry, the strength she used to squeeze him was very gentle.
So he bravely shouted "Ah" again.
The sound sounded like a protest.
Li Shuyao suddenly widened her round almond-shaped eyes, "Are you still not happy?"
"Ah!" - What else?
"There's nothing I can do even if I'm not happy about it. I'm your mother after all. You have to listen to me for the rest of your life." Li Shuyao said complacently.
The next moment, as if she suddenly remembered something, she shook her head again, "No, you have to listen to me in the first half of your life, and listen to your wife in the second half. Otherwise, I will pull your wife and cry for you... I will cry until the whole Changchun Palace will be drowned in tears... I will cry so hard that even your Khan Ama will know..."
The more your Majesty talks, the more outrageous it becomes.
Nanny Yan shook her head silently and sighed in her heart, but the expression on her face was obviously indulgent.
Little Yinzhen rolled his dark eyes, and seeing that Nanny Yan didn't say anything to help him, he could only let out "ah" again with some tiredness.
——How many, how many!
My mother is so nagging.
Only then did Li Shuyao contentedly let go of the hand that was pinching the little boy's cheek.
At the other end of the delivery room, Tian Jiarou and Yue Shu were shaking the fan stand and whispering.
"The little prince can't speak, how does Your Majesty know what he wants to express?" Tian Jiarou asked blankly.
Yue Shu glanced at her and said, "Stupid, this is called the mother-child bond!" She deliberately emphasized the last few words.
Tian Jiarou thought for a moment, "But, really, isn't the Queen just guessing?"
The little prince is obviously just a baby who was born a few days ago. How can he clearly express his joy, anger, sorrow and happiness?
When he cried out just now, perhaps he felt that the Queen was pinching his face and playing with him?
No matter what, the young prince seems to like his wife very much.
Thinking of this, Tian Jiarou no longer hesitated and carefully shook the handle of the fan stand for Li Shuyao.

After Li Shuyao gave birth to little Yinzhen, Changchun Palace was very lively for a while.
But she was in the delivery room recuperating after giving birth, so all reception matters were left to Nanny Yan and Qingyao next door to help.
In addition, there is the Imperial Concubine of Chengqian Palace in charge. Although there are some undercurrents in the harem, they cannot affect Li Shuyao.
She was only responsible for lying in bed and eating and drinking every day. When her body gradually recovered and she was able to get out of bed and walk, little Yinzhen was about to receive his full-moon ceremony.
Li Shuyao didn't understand the procedures of the full-moon ceremony in the Qing Dynasty, so she asked Nanny Yan what she needed to prepare.
Nanny Yan said that the emperor had handed over the full moon banquet of the little prince to the imperial concubine, and she just needed to rest well and take care of herself.
So Li Shuyao was very generous and put the matter behind her.
As for little Yinzhen, he was rarely a little conflicted.
He still remembered that in his previous life, he was taken to his noble mother's Chengqian Palace to be raised just the day after the full moon banquet.
Your mother treated him like her own son. Even when she became pregnant, her care and love for him never diminished in the slightest.
Before she passed away, she held her Khan Ama's hand and pleaded with him to change his jade disc to her name.
At that time, his own biological mother already had other children, whom she took care of like treasures.
His noble mother was also worried that after he returned to his biological mother, he would not be valued, and might even be treated coldly and bullied by the palace servants.
Subsequent facts also proved that his biological mother did not love him very much.
There was even a hint of hatred and hostility towards him.
Hate him for accepting a thief as his mother, or maybe there is some other reason...
Therefore, if it happened again, if his biological mother was still the same one as before, he would do everything he could to be raised by the noble mother.
But... he has a new mother now, and his previous thoughts have disappeared without a trace during the intimate interactions of the past twenty days.
He is only worried now, what should he do if his mother wants to raise him just like in his previous life?
Little Yinzhen lay in his cradle and sighed softly.
Li Shuyao heard his voice and thought he was blowing bubbles again. She skillfully picked up the silk handkerchief beside her and wiped the corners of his mouth randomly without raising her head.
Little Yinzhen came back to his senses and pulled the handkerchief in Li Shuyao's hand with some dissatisfaction.
Li Shuyao: “?”
She looked up from the storybook, her apricot blossom eyes filled with surprise, "Does Yinzhen want to play tug-of-war with Mother?"
When little Yinzhen heard this, he quickly let go of the handkerchief.
He doesn't want to play!
