Li Ruowei started complaining to me about the good things Xie Yuancheng had done. I heard a lot of interesting things, and I'll tell him about it whenever Xie Yuancheng tries to blackmail me again.
I reckon he probably wet his pants when he went to the Ji residence, which is why I wouldn't let him hold me because I could smell the urine. That stingy little brat, now he remembers this and keeps trying to take advantage of me.
We were having a pleasant conversation when Xie Yuancheng pulled me up: "Ying'er~ I've been calling you for ages and you haven't answered!"
"I was talking to my sister, I had no idea you were calling me."
I wanted to laugh just looking at him. With Li Ruowei around, he wouldn't dare to act recklessly. The maid added a chair, and Xie Yuancheng sat very obediently. Meng Anshi hadn't returned yet, so Li Ruowei kept grumbling that he was always ordering people around.
I was trying not to laugh. Xie Yuancheng glanced over, his expression unreadable. But I wasn't worried. Now that I knew about his past little things, I could figure things out more clearly when he came to settle accounts with me.
"Ying'er, I'm exhausted after a long day. Can you take me home to rest?" Xie Yuancheng reached out to pull me after listening to Li Ruowei talk for half an hour.
Xi Zhi and Su Ling are back too. Xie Yuancheng won't let go either. I'll give him some face and 'send' him back to rest. Then I'll see what he wants to do.
After feeding the two little ones, they started clamoring to play with Yan'er. I took them to the small courtyard, where everything was provided. There were three nannies taking care of the three children, as well as six maids.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I found that everyone had been sent away. Just as I was about to go to the small courtyard to play, the door behind me closed, and Xie Yuancheng grabbed my hand and walked forward.
"Let go quickly, we still need to check on Su Ling and Xi Zhi later~"
"Hmph~ My sister told me that she's worried the children will experience the same things as before. Now that they can walk, eat and play by themselves, we need to start training them slowly."
"They're so young, why are you already trying to train them? They're not geniuses."
"My children are all little geniuses, but their mother is a little rascal~"
Xie Yuancheng picked me up, and I struggled so much that I was quickly stripped naked and thrown into the hot spring. He then got off.
"Tell me quickly, what were you talking about this afternoon? You looked so happy. I called you five or six times, but you didn't answer me! Xizhi even saw me coming and went to remind you while holding the little ball."
That stingy guy, he just got back and he's already finding fault with me. I really didn't hear anything; I was too busy listening to Li Ruowei talk about things to pay attention to anything else.
“We’re just talking about things from when you were little, like being scared by an owl and crying, or you peeing your pants, etc.”
Before I could even voice my guess, Xie Yuancheng pulled me into the water, and I could barely breathe before he let me go.
"Ugh~ You asked a question and then wouldn't let me finish answering, that's so mean~"
"Ying'er~" Xie Yuancheng carried me to the soft rock in the middle. As soon as I lay down, he leaned over and said, "That was in the past, when I was three or four years old. There were also changes that happened. How can you explain it clearly?"
"Hmph~" I turned to the other side. I could dress myself and take a bath when I was two and a half years old, but he is three years old and still wets his pants.
Xie Yuancheng leaned over and kissed my cheek. I was secretly laughing when I thought about what Li Ruowei had said. I only realized it was too late when he frowned. He dragged me to the other side of the water table. When I woke up in the middle of the night, my back hurt.
"My little Ying'er~ You made fun of me like that." Xie Yuancheng leaned on my shoulder. He always acted like a little man with me because he was a little taller than me.
"Get up quickly." My voice was a little hoarse, and as he approached me, I started thinking about other things.
"No~ It's all my sister's fault for telling you such nonsense. She's the one teaching Xizhi and Suling now. Our family is different from ordinary families, so we need to let them know some things early on."
I grew up like everyone else, but I almost lost my life. It's all your fault! I've already suffered so much, and you won't even let me hug you!
"You must have smelled bad, and you came here to bother me!"
"Ying'er, that was when you were three years old, why are you still bringing it up?"
Xie Yuancheng rubbed against me, and my hands were shaking. I still had to comfort him. What a good wife I am: "I know, I was just saying it. I don't really think so."
"I knew Ying'er was the best to me~" Xie Yuancheng hugged me and pulled me into his arms, covering me with a blanket.
I couldn't be bothered to argue with him. Only children argue. Unless he's not human, and he's still a toddler who has experienced the loss of his family, if he can calmly and rationally deal with everything, then heaven, earth, and the universe are all just background noise.
Where in the world can you find such a good deal? I can't think of anyone who's just bragging. I started to feel sleepy; I always manage to sleep soundly in Xie Yuancheng's arms.
Every day I go to play with the three little darlings. Now Xizhi has become Yan'er and Suling's little follower. He agrees with everything they say.
Su Ling is growing faster than Xi Zhi. We've only been here for two months, and she's already taller than Xi Zhi. Xi Zhi likes to run around carrying a big ball, while Yan'er, being older and bolder, enjoys playing with swords and spears, and Su Ling follows suit and learns from her.
"They're still so young, they just like to swing those little sticks around. I wonder if they'll hit their heads?" I was watching them take turns playing outside, and I was worried about their little heads.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. They're not little anymore. They can speak simple words now, and when they get a little older, they'll be able to do some things."
"What? Sister, it's good enough that they can eat and sleep well and not cry. You don't need to have too high expectations."
"What are you thinking? I want them to study and learn to write under Xizhi's guidance. They should support each other and grow up together so that they can become successful."
"That's good." I breathed a sigh of relief. Xie Yuancheng led Ling Wu and the others to inspect all the city gates. Now, everyone who followed him was receiving preferential treatment, which was a good thing.
You don't have to live a life of constant violence and intrigue. You can spend the rest of your life here peacefully, go out for a stroll from time to time, and do things you like. It couldn't be better.
"Madam Marquis~" Lu Fengjun is here again. I saw him here once before, and he always calls me that~
"Lu Fengjun, are you asking for a beating again? Should I talk to Ling Wu when he gets back and have him teach you a lesson?"
"No, I'm just worried about calling you by the wrong name in the future. We need to practice more often."
Lu Fengjun arrived happily. He owned a mansion in the city, and the original government offices were now under his management. Because he was a minister sent by the imperial court, the court was now quite at ease with Linyang.
It's so pitiful for Yu'er. He's so young, and he has to be separated from us. Sometimes I dream about him in the middle of the night, and I wake up in a fright.
"You two just love women's compassion. It was more interesting when you weren't married. Both of you were heroines who died."
"Be careful what you say. If Yuancheng finds out you said that, he will definitely separate you and Lingwu for a while when he gets back."
