Yin Qingyi finally couldn't resist her stomach's protests and drank the bowl of plain porridge that looked unappetizing.
Just as Yin Qingyi finished her porridge, the three little ones next door seemed to sense it and woke up all at once, then started making loud noises. Even in such a noisy environment, their voices were incredibly penetrating and reached Yin Qingyi's ears.
"It seems the three young masters have woken up. This old servant will go and have the wet nurse bring them over." The wet nurse heard this and got up to go out.
Soon after, Granny Naqi returned, followed by three wet nurses, each carrying a child in their arms: two in golden swaddling clothes and one in red swaddling clothes.
"Come here and let me hug you." Yin Qingyi didn't feel anything when she didn't see him, but now that she saw him, a special emotion welled up inside her and she couldn't suppress it.
The three wet nurses stepped forward and brought the swaddled baby closer to Yin Qingyi, but they had no intention of letting Yin Qingyi hold the child.
"I said, give me a hug!" Yin Qingyi's smile froze as she watched the three of them act, then she suppressed her smile and looked at them with a stern face.
"Princess has just given birth and is still recovering. The princes and princesses are heavy, and it might tire her out," the head wet nurse replied with a smile. Although her words implied concern for Yin Qingyi's well-being, her tone betrayed a different story.
"It seems that my two days of unconsciousness gave you the wrong impression! Naqi Mama, these three wet nurses should be dismissed." Yin Qingyi's face turned cold as she looked at Naqi Mama.
Naqi's nanny understood, and immediately she, Qiuju, and Chunlan each took a child. Mingyue, Fengqing, and Xiaojinzi each held a wet nurse, ignoring their resistance. These wet nurses were carefully raised and had no strength to resist the suppression of Mingyue and the others. They could only shout and scream in vain.
The three little ones weren't afraid at all. They stared with their big, dark eyes, seemingly lost in thought. Normally, babies who are only two or three days old shouldn't be able to see anything, but looking into those clear eyes, Yin Qingyi felt as if they could see.
"Princess, what should we do with these three?" Granny Naqi was also quite upset about the behavior of these three wet nurses. It was her oversight; she had been prioritizing the princess's needs these past two days and had neglected these wet nurses, which allowed them to become so arrogant.
"Tie them up and throw them into an empty room first. When the master comes, I'll talk to him personally. Weren't these wet nurses arranged by the master? Of course, we still have to wait for the master to decide their fate." Yin Qingyi picked up the little princess, her tone completely indifferent. If it were before, she would never have done this, but now she was the mother of three children, and she had to stand up for herself.
Mingyue Fengqing and Xiaojinzi immediately took the three away without gagging them, dragging them along the way. This left the people of Luoxuexuan looking at each other in bewilderment. This was the most easy-going mistress they had ever met. What had these three wet nurses done to make the princess so angry?
Meanwhile, the other wet nurses in the next room were also terrified, not understanding what had happened, how they could have gone there perfectly well only to end up like this? Would they be next?
Just then, Granny Naqi came over, briefly recounted what had just happened, and then left.
The remaining six wet nurses breathed a sigh of relief. So that's how it is; they were relieved. The three wet nurses who had been the most competitive among them weren't originally the ones who were supposed to be holding the three young masters. But when they heard that the princess wanted to see them, they took the children with them. They never expected to end up like this.
"Nanny Naqi, has the master named them?" Yin Qingyi asked with a loving smile as she held the little princess and saw Nanny Naqi return.
"Not yet, Princess. Usually, princes and princesses are only named after they've been born and are standing for a while." Granny Naqi shook her head. Although the mistress might not have to wait several years if she gave birth to twins, it was still impossible to name them so quickly.
"Oh." Yin Qingyi nodded, having forgotten about this matter.
The little princess in Yin Qingyi's arms looked at this unfamiliar person with curiosity like a curious baby. Instead of crying or fussing, she gave Yin Qingyi a sweet smile.
"Oh my, my little darling's smile is so beautiful. Does my little darling recognize me as her mother?" Yin Qingyi looked at her daughter smiling at her, and her heart melted.
"Wah~" The little princes in Qiu Ju and Chun Lan's arms seemed unhappy that Yin Qingyi didn't look at them or hold them. Although they didn't cry, they made angry "wah" sounds and waved their little hands as if they were very angry.
"Hehe, it seems the little princes also want to be held by the princess." Granny Naqi smiled mischievously when she saw this.
"Who is the eldest, second eldest, and third eldest among the three of them?" Yin Qingyi couldn't help but laugh. How old are they? They already know how to compete for favor.
“Qiuju is holding the Third Prince, Chunlan is holding the Fourth Prince, and you are holding the Little Princess,” Naqi Mama replied.
"Put them all on my bed. I can't carry three of them by myself. Put them all on my bed so I can take a look." Yin Qingyi nodded and said to Qiu Ju and Chun Lan.
"Yes, Princess, you must be careful. The princes are very strong. Don't get hit by their hands," Qiuju reminded her. They had been hit before, and more than once, because the two young princes were just too lively and active.
"Okay." Yin Qingyi nodded, looking at the three little ones on the bed. The eldest one's face looked like Yinzhen's, thank you. The second one didn't look like anyone, but he seemed to resemble everyone a little. This little princess looked just like her, and her eyes were the easiest to recognize, just like hers, a pair of fox eyes.
The three little ones were put on the bed and immediately saw the fighting. Then something happened that made Yin Qingyi's jaw drop. The three little ones, who were not even three days old, actually started fighting with each other. If they hadn't been in swaddling clothes, they probably would have beaten each other black and blue.
"What... what's going on?" Yin Qingyi mechanically turned her head to look at the three people standing by the bed.
"Please don't be offended, Princess. The three little masters have been like this since the day they were born. We servants have tried to separate them and give each of them their own small bed, but strangely, although they fight when they are together, they cry and fuss when they are separated, and no one can soothe them." Qiuju explained, afraid that Yin Qingyi might be frightened.
