"Woo-woo! Woo-woo!"
The loud cry of a baby echoed in the inner hall.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! It's a little prince! Your Majesty, the second child's head can be seen. Your Majesty will add..."
"Woo-woo! Woo-woo!"
Before the midwife could finish her words, the baby was born again.
The speed was so fast that even the midwife was stunned.
"Congratulations, Madam, it's a little princess!"
The midwife quickly wrapped up the twins, a boy and a girl, and brought them to Ying Xixi to show her.
Ying Xixi's complexion was still rosy, there was no sweat on her face, and she didn't look tired at all. She didn't look like someone who had just given birth.
Outside the hall, Xiao Xieyun and his three sons heard the baby crying and hurried into the outer hall.
The four of them, father and son, were visibly nervous.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, and Your Highnesses! The Queen has given birth to a little prince and princess."
Two midwives came out of the inner hall holding two babies and announced the good news.
The four of them, father and son, were very surprised to hear this.
"How is the Queen?"
Xiao Xieyun still asked about Ying Xixi's situation first.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. The Empress is in good health and the delivery went smoothly. Your Majesty will be able to go in and see her later."
Only then did Xiao Xieyun feel relieved and his eyes fell on the faces of his youngest son and daughter.
Although the two little ones are twins, a boy and a girl, you can tell at a glance that they don't look exactly the same.
Even Xiao Xieyun and his three sons could tell who was the younger brother and who was the younger sister at a glance.
"My brothers and sisters are so small and cute. I can't even touch them."
Little Hongtang was very cautious and wanted to reach out and touch her brother and sister's faces several times, but she didn't dare.
"Father, do you dare to hug my brothers and sisters?"
Little Red Sugar opened his eyes wide and looked at his father.
Xiao Xieyun: “….”
"You dare?"
Little Red Sugar shook his head honestly, "My son doesn't dare. My younger brothers and sisters look so soft, I don't dare touch them."
Xiao Xieyun nodded.
"It's normal that you don't dare. When you were born, you were also this small and soft.
You can touch your brothers and sisters’ hands.”
Little Red Sugar stretched out his finger eagerly and gently poked his sister's chubby cheek, and immediately exclaimed.
“So soft!”
Seeing his son making such a fuss, Xiao Xieyun couldn't help but recall that he was in a similar situation back then.
He waited for a while and then went into the inner hall.
"Xixi, how do you feel?"
Xiao Xieyun wiped the non-existent sweat beads from Ying Xixi's forehead with concern.
"I feel okay, Yun. Have you seen the kids? They're so cute."
Ying Xixi's smile radiates the radiance of maternal love.
"I see, they don't look much alike. Xixi, I'll leave the nicknames of the two children to you.
You've had a lot of favorite foods during this pregnancy. Have you decided which two foods you'd like to use as nicknames for your two children?
Xiao Xieyun smiled as he predicted Ying Xixi's plan.
Ying Xixi smiled even sweeter. "Well, I need to think about this carefully. Ah Yun, which name sounds better for a boy, Zhachuan or Momo?"
Xiao Xieyun didn't know how to answer for a moment.
The three young boys who came in to visit their mother happened to hear their mother's question.
Little Red Sugar blurted out, "Mother, fried skewers and steamed buns don't sound good."
Ying Xixi's pupils trembled, "Really?"
Little Red Sugar nodded seriously, "Mother, we know the word 'momo'. It's the name of a food.
But the maids in the palace are also called Momo.
It’s better not to call your brother that way.
As for the fried skewers...Mother, would you like to think of something else?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Xixi thought that it made sense, as the nanny was also called Momo.
During her pregnancy, her favorite foods are fried skewers, steamed buns, sesame cakes, candied haws and roast duck.
You can’t let your child order roast duck, right?
"So, which of the sesame cakes, fried skewers, or roast duck do you think is suitable for your brother?"
Ying Xixi looked serious.
The three brothers exchanged glances and thought to themselves, it’s over, mother is serious!
Considering their younger brother, they finally chose the pancake.
Although sesame cakes and fried skewers are about the same.
"Okay, then my brother's nickname is Shaobing, and what about my sister's?
How about calling it Tanghulu?
Ying Xixi's eyes lit up. Tanghulu was the nickname she had specially given to her daughter!
Little Red Sugar couldn't help but said, "Mother, why don't you call me Tangtang?"
Tangtang sounds much better than Tanghulu.
My sister is a little girl, so it would be a bit strange to call her Hulu, but it wouldn’t be strange to call her Tangtang.”
Ying Xixi agreed, "Okay, that's decided!"
As for the names of the twins, Xiao Xieyun had already decided them from the beginning.
My younger brother is Xiao Yuyuan and my younger sister is Xiao Lingyue.
He hopes that his and Xixi's daughter will be smart, happy and cheerful.
After the news of the queen giving birth to twins, a boy and a girl, spread outside the palace, the people envied the queen and the only little princess.
The little princess has four older brothers, and her mother is also her father's only favorite concubine. The little princess has been enjoying wealth and glory since she was born!
Really reincarnated!
Ying Xixi will still be in confinement for two months this time.
She originally only wanted to stay in confinement for a month, but this time Xiao Xieyun forced her to stay in confinement for two months.
Fortunately, these two months happen to be autumn, which is neither too cold nor too hot, and it won’t be uncomfortable.
After giving birth to these two children, Ying Xixi decided not to have any more children for the time being.
Five children are enough.
In the future, no matter who inherits the throne, he can be responsible for the Fufeng Kingdom.
She and Xiao Xieyun's children are born of the same mother, so there will absolutely be no situation where they plot against each other and kill each other!
........
After finishing her confinement, Ying Xixi continued to work on the affairs of the welfare homes and nursing homes in Beijing.
She initially wanted to conduct a pilot project in Beijing to see how it went.
If it is confirmed that the national treasury is full and all other conditions are satisfactory, welfare homes and nursing homes will be established in the surrounding areas starting from the capital.
With things to do, Ying Xixi's life became busier and more fulfilling.
She also brought the Queen Mother with her as an assistant.
Sometimes Xiao Xieyun felt that Ying Xixi was busier than him, the emperor.
However, despite being busy, Ying Xixi and Xiao Xieyun did not reduce the time they spent with their children.
When the triplets were fifteen years old, the twin boy and girl were already five years old.
The two little ones followed their three older brothers happily all day long, calling them "brothers" in their baby voices.
The triplets felt so soft-hearted that they wanted to take their younger siblings with them wherever they went.
Xiao Xieyun and Ying Xixi were happy and pleased that the children had such a good relationship.
When the triplets were sixteen years old, an orphanage and a nursing home were about to be established in the Jiangnan area, so Xiao Xieyun and Ying Xixi wanted to take the five children out to travel.
As the saying goes, reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles, and traveling ten thousand miles is not as good as meeting countless people.
Meeting countless people also requires traveling.
