As soon as Hua Hua finished drinking her milk, Jiang Huai snatched her away and held her in his arms.
Aside from being a little rusty at the beginning, he's already showing a lot of what it means to be a big brother.
He's strong; he can hold a child steadily.
As a result, this scene was often seen in the mansion.
A four-year-old boy was carrying his younger sister around the yard, followed closely by a large group of people, including his maternal grandmother, maternal grandmother, and paternal grandfather. The scene was quite comical.
Fu Qiyuan knew that with Jiang Huai as his doting sister, he would never get to hold his daughter, so he simply stayed in the house with Jiang Shan.
Hearing the voices outside, Jiang Shan laughed and said, "Huai'er really loves flowers; she can't take her eyes off them all day long!"
Fu Qiyuan's lips curled slightly, "He hasn't left the house in the few days since he came back. He'll be very busy once we get back to Huangshan Garden!"
"Then wouldn't he have to stuff the flowers into every pocket he comes in? Hahaha!" Jiang Shan laughed more and more as he thought about it.
Fu Qiyuan shook his head as he thought of that scene.
Given Jiang Huai's protectiveness towards his sister, it's not that he couldn't do it.
These past few days, Sanlang and the others haven't been able to attend classes properly. They always sneak back early and then huddle by the baby's crib, refusing to leave.
We need to teach them a lesson!
That day, the uncle and his nephews were playing with the baby around Hua Hua's crib when Grand Tutor Cheng and Fu Qiyuan walked over with their hands behind their backs.
Sanlang turned around and looked at the two of them, then asked, "Brother, when can we take Huahua out to play?"
Saburo is usually very calm and composed, but he loses all his principles when he's around Xiaohua!
Fu Qiyuan cleared his throat and said seriously, "You should all go study! If you don't get good results in this year's provincial examination, how can you set an example for Huai'er? Don't you still need to give Huahua a hundred-day gift? The results of the provincial examination will be the best gift!"
Sanlang's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Jiang Huai and Huahua with great hesitation. He stood up with a pained expression and said, "Brother, I will study hard. Can we come to see Huahua later?"
Fu Qiyuan nodded slightly, "You can only stay here for a maximum of one hour each day! Also, you can't disturb your sister too much; she needs to rest."
Sanlang happily agreed, then glanced at Huahua one last time and decisively said, "Second Brother, Xiaoqi, let's go back to our studies!"
I easily dealt with the big ones, but the small one is still the most difficult to handle.
Before Fu Qiyuan could speak, Jiang Huai said with a smile, "Father, I don't need to study. I'll take care of my sister. You and Grandpa can go about your business!"
Well, we're stuck!
Amidst a thousand thoughts, Fu Qiyuan said, "Huai'er, you need to spend more time with your mother! When you were in Qingcheng Mountain, your mother and I missed you day and night. Even though you were pregnant, your mother still made so many delicious things for you. Now that you're back, all you see is your sister, not your parents!"
Jiang Huai stood up and said with wide eyes, "I'm going to go keep my mother company now. Father, please keep an eye on my little sister and make sure she doesn't wet her pants!"
They ran off with a thud, without even looking back.
Grand Tutor Cheng trembled as he stepped forward and picked up Little Flower, winking at Fu Qiyuan.
Fu Qiyuan slumped his shoulders, utterly exhausted, speechless.
"Mother! Mother, Huai'er has come to keep you company!"
Jiang Huai skipped and jumped into the room, grabbed Jiang Shan's arm, and half-lay in her arms, tilting his little face up with a smile that made his eyes crinkle.
Jiang Shan couldn't help but smile when he saw his son like this.
She touched her son's rosy cheeks and asked, "How could you bear to leave Huahua behind to keep your mother company?"
Jiang Huai twisted her body a little embarrassedly and said, "It's my fault. I should have spent more time with my mother after I came back! When I was pregnant with my sister, I made so many delicious things for you. It must have been very hard for you! I missed you and my father a lot when I was on the mountain. I dreamed about you."
Jiang Shan nodded vigorously, "Who said my good son isn't good? You're still so young, and you've already hunted several wild animals for your parents. What other family's good son has such abilities at such a young age?"
Jiang Huai's eyes lit up as he said, "There's also a wolf pelt! Wolf pelts aren't as soft as fox pelts, so they didn't send one over! Next time Huai'er goes to Qingcheng Mountain, he'll hunt a beautiful tiger pelt for Mother to make a sofa!"
Jiang Shan nodded vigorously with joy, hugged Jiang Huai, and kissed his slightly flushed little face.
Jiang Huai happily cupped his mother's face and giggled.
Jiang Shan then noticed several faint scars on Jiang Huai's small hands.
She looked at Jiang Huai with a puzzled expression, her heart involuntarily pounding.
"This is?"
Jiang Huai said frankly, "Practicing martial arts involves climbing mountains, right? I fell down while climbing! I grabbed onto a vine to climb back up, and that's how I climbed and climbed until my hand was scraped! It'll be fine after applying some medicine, Mother, don't worry!"
Jiang Shan's lips trembled as he murmured, "You started practicing martial arts when you were only four years old? It must have been very tough."
Jiang Huai tilted his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head. "It's not hard at all! I can sleep as soon as I get back from climbing the mountain! My master and Brother Geng are with me, and Brother Geng is even teaching me light-body skills!"
Jiang Shan didn't say anything, but hugged Jiang Huai tightly in his arms, his eyes gradually reddening.
She knew what sending Jiang Huai to Qingcheng Mountain meant, and she wanted to let her son do what he wanted to do according to his own nature. But she never thought that her son would have to bear such pressure and hardship at such a young age!
Jiang Huai gently patted Jiang Shan's back, his childish voice carrying a resilience and decisiveness beyond his years, "Mother, Huai'er must learn skills well so that I can protect Father, Mother, and Sister from being bullied in the future. Great-Grandfather said, 'No pain, no gain.' Father and Mother work so hard for Huai'er, so Huai'er must work even harder!"
Jiang Shan closed her eyes, trying to calm herself, but said with a smile, "Huai'er is the best child I've ever seen in the world! Your father, your sister, and I are so proud of you!"
Jiang Huai smiled smugly.
"My little sister is the best child in the world! Huai'er loves my little sister!"
The mother and son exchanged a knowing smile.
Outside, Hua Hua had finally managed to "tear" herself off Jiang Huai, and everyone was still holding her in their arms, not long after, Li Yang arrived, followed by Rong Yue.
"Mei'er, quickly let me hold Huahua!" Li Yang said, already reaching out his hand towards Jiao's mother.
Despite her deep reluctance, Jiao's mother had no choice but to hand Huahua over.
Rong Yue leaned over and glanced at him before exclaiming loudly, "Where's Huai'er? Huai'er! Huai'er!"
Hearing the sound, Jiang Huai ran out and rushed towards Rong Yue: "Big Brother!"
Rong Yue reached out her hand, and Jiang Huai clung to her like a monkey, giggling.
"You've grown taller and thinner!" Rong Yue exclaimed sincerely.
Jiang Huai gestured with his small hands and said, "Big Pot has gotten thinner and darker!"
The two brothers burst into laughter.
Li Yang hugged Hua Hua with delight, but couldn't help glancing at Jiang Huai. "Huai'er, you came all this way back without even sending someone to tell your godmother. Don't you know she'll worry?"
Jiang Huai turned his head and smiled, "Godmother, I told you in the letter that I would come back when you gave birth to my sister!"
As for why we weren't notified in advance, someone had already relayed the message to Liyang.
All because of a dream!
It was a pretty accurate dream!
What else could she say?
