Consort Mu suddenly lost her previous thoughts. She glanced at the chubby little boy who was running out of breath with a slight reproach, and said in a grumbling tone, "How many times have I told you not to run too fast? You'll get sick from sweating too much. Why don't you listen to me?"
As she spoke, Consort Mu carefully took out a lily-patterned handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her chubby son's face.
She gently touched the back of Yinmi's clothes; the outer garment was slightly damp, indicating that the inner garment was probably soaked through.
"Go quickly and find Aunt Bihe to help you wash up and change your clothes, then tell your mother about your happy news, okay?"
"Mmm." Overjoyed to receive a positive response from his mother, Xiao Yinmi obediently followed Aunt Bihe who had come over.
A short while later, the chubby little boy, now dressed in clean clothes, returned. Having learned from his previous experience, he walked quickly but without breaking a sweat.
Yinmi nestled warmly in his mother's arms, feeling like a small stove in the chilly autumn day.
Consort Mu looked at Yinmi with eyes full of tenderness, "Tell me, what made you happy today?"
Speaking of his happy day, Yinmi said with great enthusiasm, "Mother, Teacher Lin praised my homework yesterday! Teacher Lin even said I was great! Hehe."
Somewhat surprised but not unexpected, Consort Mu had heard the name "Master Lin" countless times from her chubby son these past few days; he had practically made it his catchphrase.
"Really? Well then, our Yinmi is truly remarkable, to have actually received praise from Master Lin." Consort Mu smiled wryly as she looked at the chubby little boy in her arms, who was brimming with anticipation.
Sure enough, the chubby little boy in her arms, who had received praise from both Master Lin and his mother, pouted proudly, which made Consort Mu even happier. She kissed the chubby little boy's cheek hard.
"Oh dear, Mother, how could you kiss me? I'm a grown-up now." The chubby boy shyly covered his cheek where he had been kissed, but his eyes were full of happiness, showing no sign of rejection.
Seeing her chubby son's antics, Consort Mu decided to tease him, "So, Mother won't be affectionate towards our grown-up Yinmi anymore, right?"
Sure enough, after saying that, Xiao Yinmi's eyes widened as if the sky had fallen. A moment later, he began to writhe in Consort Mu's arms, saying, "Then Mother can still kiss me, just please kiss me less in front of some people."
Looking at her chubby little boy's adorable appearance, Consort Mu couldn't help but kiss his left cheek again. "Alright then."
No wonder her mother loved kissing her so much back then. With such an adorable little baby in front of her, who could resist?
Consort Mu chuckled, and couldn't help but become curious about the Master Lin—Lin Ruhai—that Yinmi had mentioned in the past few days. She had heard that this Master Lin was extremely handsome, and even her own child said so. She just didn't know how stunning he really was.
