What is this...
Yinzhen looked at his brother in his arms and then at the egg custard in front of him, and suddenly regretted not leaving earlier.
However, Cheng An didn't know what his fourteenth brother was thinking. Instead, he was quite happy and smiled at him: "Ah..."
The delicate and lovely baby opening its mouth to wait for feeding is so adorable. This is why Kangxi just watched others feed his baby at first, but later decided to do it himself.
Although they had not been together for a long time, Yinzhen still liked his younger brother very much. Seeing him like this, he sighed in his heart, held him firmly with one hand and reached for the spoon with the other.
It was obvious that he was really inexperienced. He picked up the spoon and scooped a large spoonful of egg custard, then sprinkled it towards Cheng'an's mouth.
Seeing the egg custard spilling out of the spoon, Cheng'an, who had originally opened his mouth waiting to eat, quickly leaned over and took a bite.
The spoon was really too full of egg custard, and he had a small mouth, so he couldn't finish it in one bite. But Yinzhen, who was inexperienced, saw that he had already put the egg custard in his mouth, so he lifted the spoon and fed him the rest without waiting for him to swallow it.
Fortunately, Cheng'an was not an ordinary child, so he swallowed with big gulps and did not choke.
That would have been fine, but when Yinzhen continued to feed him, he either fed him too fast, making it difficult for him to eat, or he didn't control the strength well and hit his mouth, and it was inevitable that the egg custard would spill while he was feeding it.
This was the first time Cheng'an realized that having a meal could be so difficult.
It was so hard to have his brother to eat with him, he was quite happy. He originally wanted to endure it, but when the spoon hit his teeth, he really couldn't bear it anymore.
“Ama…”
Kangxi seemed to be concentrating on his meal, but actually his eyes were always on his two sons. When he saw Yinzhen feeding the first spoonful, he almost wanted to speak, but finally he held back.
Seeing his youngest son stretching out his little hand and calling him, he snorted in his heart and thought to himself: Just now he was talking about brother, but now he is thinking of father...
Although he thought so, Kangxi still couldn't remain indifferent when he saw his little son, whom he had raised well, being fed like a cat.
"You are so old, but you can't even feed a child." After Kangxi finished speaking, he reached out and took his youngest son back.
Seeing this, Liang Jiugong, who was waiting on the side, tactfully handed over a wrung-out wet wipe.
After Kangxi took the wet wipes and wiped his youngest son's mouth, he also wiped his body.
Cheng'an finally realized that his father was more reliable when it came to feeding him, and raised his head obediently. His dark eyes were full of dependence, which made Kangxi, who was a little annoyed with him, soften his heart immediately.
When Yinzhen heard his royal father's words full of disgust, he felt very innocent, after all, he had never fed a child before.
However, seeing the emperor's actions at this moment, and thinking about his innocent younger brother being fed like this by him, he felt a little guilty.
"Are you itchy?" Kangxi had just thrown the used wet wipes to Liang Jiugong, and turned around to see the little guy in his arms grabbing a piece of meat from his bowl and preparing to put it into his mouth.
The person who was caught eating secretly blinked his eyes with an innocent expression, then raised his hand and said, "Ama, eat..."
When Yinzhen saw him grabbing a piece of meat and putting it in front of his royal father, he thought he was brave and a little funny. At the same time, he was a little curious whether the royal father would eat it.
The little guy's hands were white and tender, and looked quite clean. However, no matter how clean they were, they were still eaten with his hands. How could Kangxi possibly eat them?
He saw his other son secretly looking over here and said, "The Emperor doesn't like it, give it to your brother."
After Kangxi finished speaking, he put the man to the ground.
When Cheng An heard what he said, he walked straight to Yin Zhen and said, "Brother, eat..."
The meat in his hand smelled delicious, and when he gave it out again, his saliva almost flowed out.
Seeing that he was so greedy that he wanted to give him the meat, what could Yinzhen do? Of course he picked up the chopsticks, took it and put it in the bowl.
After the meat in his hand was gone, a greedy little guy looked at his greasy and fragrant little hand and couldn't help but lick it.
He was still young, and even if he could eat complementary foods, they were all light foods like egg custard. When he tasted the salty and fresh gravy, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Before Yinzhen decided whether to eat the meat, he saw him licking his hands greedily, and couldn't help asking: "Father, can't Cheng'an eat meat?"
Because of his pitiful appearance, the ordinary piece of meat in the bowl became precious. Thinking that his hands were not dirty, Yinzhen decided not to waste the meat.
"He is still young, and he can't eat these." Kangxi also saw his youngest son's useless behavior. He was angry and amused for a moment, and at the same time felt sorry for him.
Kangxi ordered someone to wash his hands again, then held him in his arms, picked up the bowl of egg custard and continued to feed him, while ordering: "Ask the imperial kitchen to make a bowl of wontons that the little prince can digest."
As soon as he said this, the imperial kitchen became busy and soon a portion of wontons was served.
Knowing that it is for the little prince, the wontons are made very small and exquisite, just enough for him to eat one at a time. The soup base is clear chicken soup, the wonton skin is rolled as thin as paper, and the inside is filled with fish and vegetable fillings. The overall taste is relatively light, but it tastes very fresh.
Cheng'an was very excited to finally have something other than milk, egg custard, fish soup and milk cake. He would lean over and start eating before Kangxi even handed him the spoon.
The tender and smooth wonton skin melts easily with a light chew, and the filling inside is fresh and delicate, so delicious that his eyes curved.
Kangxi was worried that he would not be able to eat meat because he was so greedy even though his teeth had not yet grown fully. But when he saw that he was eating it happily with his front few teeth, he was relieved.
"Ah..." Cheng'an opened his mouth immediately after swallowing a wonton.
"Eat slowly." After Kangxi said this, he asked Yinzhen, who was watching nearby, to eat quickly as well.
Yinzhen nodded and picked up the bowl and chopsticks in front of him, but his eyes were still looking at them. He had to admit in his heart that the emperor was really amazing. He could even feed the child, and feed him so well.
"Father, eat..." After eating a few wontons, Cheng'an thought they were delicious. When Kangxi fed him again, he pushed the spoon in front of him, wanting him to have a taste too.
Kangxi was a little surprised, but it was a happy thing no matter how he thought about it that his son, at such a young age, knew how to be filial to him.
Seeing his little hand on his arm carefully pushing the spoon towards him, Kangxi finally opened his mouth and ate the wonton which was a little small for him.
As an emperor, he was somewhat of a germaphobe. He was actually willing to eat with the spoon used by his son. It had to be said that even Liang Jiugong, who had been serving him, was a little surprised.
"It tastes good." After praising the wontons in his mouth, Kangxi continued to feed them in a good mood.
After Cheng An ate two more mouthfuls, he thought of his brother, so when he was fed again, he turned around and shouted, "Brother, eat!"
Seeing that he was still thinking about him, Yinzhen didn't know whether to be happy or helpless. He had just eaten the meat with his hands, so there was nothing to dislike about the same bowl of wontons. The problem was that the spoon was in the hands of the emperor, and he didn't dare to go over to eat it even if he had the courage.
The royal family had not fallen to the point where the father and his two sons had to share a bowl of wontons. When Kangxi heard what his youngest son said, he fed the wontons in the spoon into his mouth and said, "Eat your own. There are more for him if he wants."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Jiugong brought another bowl of wontons and placed it in front of Yinzhen without any instructions.
Although this was food for children, perhaps because Cheng'an was eating it with great relish, Yinzhen actually felt an appetite, so he picked up the bowl and started eating.
Seeing that his brother also had wontons to eat, Cheng'an was very happy and clapped his hands while eating.
The bowl of wontons quickly went into his stomach, leaving no soup at all.
Kangxi put down the bowl, reached out to touch his slightly bulging belly, picked up a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and put him on the ground.
After eating and drinking his fill, Cheng'an went downstairs and started playing by himself, while the father and son at the table continued to eat.
At first he was playing around Kangxi, but soon he ran to Yinzhen.
Yinzhen was holding the bowl and eating seriously until he felt a tug on his waist and realized that he had come closer to him without knowing when.
"Brother." Seeing him looking down at him, Cheng'an, who was playing with the jade pendant on his waist, shouted.
Yinzhen glanced at the jade pendant in his hand and saw that he seemed to like it very much, so he simply reached out a hand and untied the jade pendant and gave it to him.
"Hello, brother." Seeing that his brother directly handed the jade pendant to him, Cheng An leaned over and said to him.
When Yinzhen heard his words, the corners of his lips slightly raised. He rubbed his little head and then continued to eat.
Next to him, Kangxi saw out of the corner of his eye that his youngest son had picked up another jade pendant and was playing with it, and he felt a little amused.
After lunch, Yinzhen bowed and left. When he left, Cheng'an inevitably shouted a few times, but since Kangxi was there, he didn't make too much noise.
After coming out of the palace, Yinzhen did not return home, but went to Yinsi's house.
When he went there, Yin'e and Yin'er were there too.
"Just came out of the palace?" Yinzhen asked casually when he saw his attire.
Yinzhen nodded and said, "I'm going to pay my respects to my mother and visit Cheng'an."
"You went to see Cheng'an? Why didn't you call me? I bought him some little gadgets and he said I could bring them to him next time I went to the palace." Yin'e said.
Yinzhen picked up the tea beside him and took a sip before saying, "You didn't tell me earlier."
"How is Cheng'an?" Yinsi liked his younger brother Cheng'an very much. When he heard that Yinzhen had met him today, he had to ask him.
"He seems to have grown up a bit since I first saw him. I played pitch pot with him for a while and lost track of time..." When Yinzhen mentioned this, he couldn't help but talk about what happened during the meal, "The Emperor really dotes on him. Not only does he hold him in his arms, he even feeds him himself..."
Cheng'an is at that age, so Yinzhen is not jealous of him. He said this just to express his surprise, and also to show off that he was still thinking about his own business while eating wontons.
As for the fact that Kangxi asked him to feed Cheng'an, he did not mention it. After all, it was a bit embarrassing to be criticized for not feeding him well.
