This was originally just a simple monthly red berry, but in the eyes of everyone, it had an extraordinary meaning.
Everyone knows that the Emperor intends to marry the princess to Lejur, but the princess is getting closer to Mingyi. It seems that the question of which one of them the princess's brother will give the flowers to has a special meaning.
Su Yushan couldn't help but worry. If her son handed the flowers to Mingyi, wouldn't Lejuer be very embarrassed?
Just as she was about to call her son away, the Fifth Prince had already made his decision and gave the Moon Red in his hand to Mingyi.
The Fifth Prince was still young and didn't recognize all these people. The reason he gave them to Mingyi was because Mingyi was often with his elder brother Yonghuang, and the Fifth Prince recognized him more, so he just handed them over.
Mingyi was pleasantly surprised to receive the flowers, experiencing a strange feeling of being accepted by her family. His gaze unconsciously shifted to Rong Yu, and their eyes met.
Rong Yu's heart suddenly tightened. She turned her head away proudly and immediately looked away, unwilling to meet his gaze again.
Seeing this, Su Yushan couldn't help but feel worried. She wondered if her daughter was still thinking about Mingyi. She wondered if Lezhuer could understand or if she would be hostile towards Mingyi.
Lejur knew perfectly well what was going on, but he said nothing. He didn't like flowers, nor did he ask the Fifth Prince for any; whether the Fifth Prince gave them to him or not didn't matter to him.
Seeing this, Yongying laughed and teased, "It seems that the Fifth Prince is closer to his cousin! Lejuer, you need to reflect on yourself and try to coax the Fifth Prince more."
Yongying, that child, really thrives on chaos! For Hongzhou's sake, Su Yushan didn't reprimand Yongying, but instead advised Lezhuer.
"The Fifth Prince is young and doesn't understand things, so please don't take it to heart, little prince."
So what if the Fifth Prince likes Mingyi? The princess's marriage is not something the Fifth Prince can decide. In the end, it is still the Emperor who makes the decision. Lejur doesn't need to please anyone; she just needs to wait for the imperial decree to be issued.
He pretended not to hear and ignored Yongying, turning to the Imperial Noble Consort indifferently and saying, "It's alright, it's a small matter, I won't mind."
Su Yushan wanted to say something more, but then she saw her youngest son turn around and walk to his sister's side.
Rong Yu still had two flowers in her hand. The Fifth Prince casually took one of the pink monthly roses, then turned around and trotted over to Lezhuer, giving him the flower.
He raised his little head, curved his little mouth, revealing four small white teeth, and gave him a sweet smile.
Su Yushan never expected her son to do such a thing. Did he think that Lejuer was unhappy, so he sent him another flower?
Rong Yu was also dumbfounded, wondering what was wrong with her brother? He actually snatched something from her and gave it to someone else, and the person who gave it to was Lejur!
This scene came so suddenly that Lejur instinctively took it, her eyes wide with surprise. She glanced at the little boy beside her, then looked up at the princess, only to see Rong Yu's brows furrowed, as if she were not very happy.
"Little Golden Bean, didn't you give that to me? Why did you give it to someone else?"
Little Golden Bean was the Fifth Prince's nickname. The Fifth Prince pointed to her right hand, implying that she had another one. Rong Yu was speechless, her cheeks puffed out in anger, and she no longer wanted to talk to her younger brother.
In truth, Lejur himself did not care, but the Fifth Prince's actions were truly unexpected. The flower warmed his heart, and he felt that he should reciprocate, so he gave the Fifth Prince the copper wire top he was carrying.
The Fifth Prince didn't know how to play, so Lejur bent down and squatted down to demonstrate.
He wound the cotton thread around a thin, round bamboo skewer, and then pulled the thread out forcefully. The bamboo skewer with the copper coin inserted would then spin rapidly, like a large spinning top. However, it didn't need to be whipped; as long as the technique of applying force was mastered, it could spin for a long time without stopping.
Upon seeing this object, the Fifth Prince was very excited. His bright black eyes were fixed on the spinning top, and he clapped his hands happily.
Yongzhang wanted to see how long the copper wire top could spin, but unfortunately, the time had come. His master called them back to their places to continue painting, and he could no longer play. He had to say goodbye to his mother.
The children still had to go to class, and Su Yushan couldn't disturb them, so she left with Rong Yu and her youngest son.
Yongzhang was quite interested in the spinning top, but he didn't want to talk to Lejuerduo. After returning to the palace in the afternoon, he went directly to his younger brother and said he wanted to help him spin the top.
He tried several times but couldn't get it to spin steadily. The coin would stop spinning after a short while. The Fifth Prince thought his toy was broken and burst into tears.
Upon hearing the noise, Su Yushan thought something had happened to her youngest son and rushed over to check, only to find that the child was upset about his toy.
Xiao Luzi wanted to say that he could turn the wheel, but then he heard the Imperial Noble Consort cough and wink at him, intending to remind him not to cause trouble.
The perceptive Lu Zi had a sudden realization and belatedly understood the Imperial Noble Consort's intention, so he immediately shut up.
Su Yushan, seizing the opportunity, suggested, "Since Little Golden Bean likes spinning tops, then I'll trouble you, as his older brother, to ask the Little Prince how to make the spinning top spin more steadily and for longer."
"I don't want to ask him about such a trivial matter!" Yongzhang felt embarrassed and didn't want to ask. Su Yushan coaxed him with a smile, "It's not for you, it's for your younger brother! You're the older brother now! If you learn the skills, your younger brother will admire you very much."
What a little boy needs most is admiration. His mother's words made Yongzhang change his mind, and he decided to give it a try.
But when he got to Lejur, he didn’t say that he wanted to learn it himself. Instead, he used Rong Yu as an excuse, saying, “Little Jin Dou wants to see the top spin and has been crying. My sister only asked me to come and ask because she wanted to coax her brother. If you don’t want to say, then I will tell my sister that you are very busy and don’t have time.”
