Chapter 435 Cui Yue walked back, Cui Yue walked back.
The night finally fell completely dark.
After finishing a whole day's work, Cui Yue quietly returned to the yard where the two young guys were, greeted the guards outside, and walked in quietly.
Just as I was about to call the two little guys, I heard a faint snoring sound coming through the slightly thick bed curtains.
Cui Yue: “…”
In an instant, the back pain, leg cramps, and waist aches that he usually ignored came back to him. Cui Yue took a deep breath, and with his strong heartache for his own prince, he temporarily forgave this world where only he was hurt.
He walked forward slowly and gently called the two sleeping little kids.
Lin Jinshu was alerted instantly, and when he saw that the person coming was Cui Yue, he showed an expression of relief and a bit of dependence, and reached out to push Jiang Yingcheng beside him.
Cui Yue's expression was obviously stunned. After a moment, the pain in his body was once again healed by the purest emotion in the world. He felt as if he was walking on clouds and mist, so unreal.
A strong sense of self-blame rose in his heart.
Why did you blame the two little guys just now?! They are just children, and they are still growing up. It is normal for them to have a little more nutrition!
What's wrong with them?!
“Hmm…”
Jiang Yingcheng also sat up and tried to open his eyes a little. As soon as he saw the scene in front of him, his eyes opened completely, with a faint light in his eyes: "Master Cui!"
Cui Yue: “…”
Cui Yue's heartbeat became disordered for a moment.
How could there be such a cute creature as a baby in the world!
He said happily, "Let's go. Grandpa Cui will take you to choose wood!"
The two little guys smiled with stars in their eyes: "Okay!"
…
Cui Yue pushed open the door and made eye contact with the person waiting outside.
"Thank you for your hard work," he said with a kind smile, "The two kids have gone to bed, so I will stay inside to watch over it tonight. You guys can take turns to rest. There's no need for so many of you to stay here."
The people in the courtyard looked at each other and smiled. "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Cui. If you need anything later, please let us know!"
Cui Yue nodded: "Okay."
Cui Yue turned around and went back indoors. The people in the yard were divided into two groups, half went back to rest, and the other half waited for them to come back to take over.
After a while.
The door was pushed open again, and Cui Yue poked his head out with an apologetic look on his face. "The two kids are awake and clamoring for a midnight snack. Please send someone to the kitchen to let them know and prepare some easily digestible food for them."
The people outside the door responded with a smile, and one of them quickly ran towards the kitchen.
Cui Yue thanked him, went back and closed the door.
Another moment passed.
Cui Yue stuck his head out, looking apologetic: "Sorry, the two kids are clamoring for fruit drinks again. Please ask someone to run another trip."
The man guarding the door turned around, looked at the sufficient number of people in the yard, and nodded: "Okay, I'll go now."
"Hard."
Cui Yue walked back again.
Cui Yue opened the door again: "Why haven't the two people who went out earlier come back yet? The kids are so hungry that they're crying. Otherwise, it would be a good idea for you to go back and bring back some fruits and snacks to cushion your hunger."
The people outside the door hesitated: "This..." There were only two of them left on duty in the yard, and they were afraid that something might happen if one more person left.
Cui Yue lowered his head in annoyance, not noticing the look on the other person's face. He said angrily, "Alas, it turns out that looking after children is so troublesome. If it weren't for His Highness saying that he liked these two little dumplings, I really wanted to slap these two little devils in the face!"
"...Don't worry, I'll be there soon."
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Cui Yue walked back again.
Cui Yue walked back again.
The person outside the door spoke first: "Butler Cui, they haven't come back yet, I——"
The person who turned around suddenly paused when he was halfway through his words: "???"
Cui Yue held a kid in one hand, frowning, with obvious annoyance in his voice: "They both insisted that we starved them on purpose and wanted to complain to the prince."
The people outside the door shuddered: "!!!"
"This..." He stuttered, "Maybe it's too late, the kitchen doesn't have all the ingredients, and some time was wasted..."
"There's no food, so are there no drinks or fruits?!" Jiang Yingcheng snorted heavily, not accepting this reason. "You just want to starve Chengcheng and brother Jinshu to death. Chengcheng is going to complain to Uncle King Jing!"
"This, this..."
He glanced helplessly at the empty yard, then turned back in despair. Just as he was about to speak, his eyes were fixed on Butler Cui.
If I remember correctly...
Butler Cui was also a martial artist when he was young. Although he was not good enough to fight with martial arts masters, it was enough to take care of two little guys.
Moreover, although there was no one guarding this small courtyard, there were enough experts guarding the entire house. As long as the two little guys were not left unattended, he would not have to worry about any unexpected situations.
"Uncle Cui, look..." He rubbed his hands and discussed, "How about you take care of it for a while, and I'll go to the kitchen to check the situation."
Cui Yue looked across with an expression as if the sky had fallen, as if he couldn't believe that he would have to face these two little ancestors alone.
but--
"Then you better hurry up."
The gatekeeper's eyes were full of gratitude, and he nodded repeatedly: "Of course, of course!"
As long as he doesn't report it to Prince Wang, he will run for his life!
When the figure of the last person in charge of guarding them in the yard disappeared around the corner in the distance, the three people standing at the door laughed in unison.
"Hehe~"
“Hehehe~~”
"Let's go——"
“Hmmmm!”
…
Cui Yue brought the two kids to the garden of the house.
The shadows of the trees in the moonlight exuded a gloomy atmosphere. Jiang Yingcheng hugged the calf of the palace housekeeper and shivered uncontrollably: "Wuwuwu, it's so scary here——"
After she finished howling, she saw that her brother Jinshu didn't react at all, so she reached out and patted him lightly in a covert motion.
[Hey, come and act with your sister! ]
Lin Jinshu: “…”
Lin Jinshu: “…wuwuwu.”
Cui Yue's sense of mission was overflowing. He reached out and held the two kids tightly: "Don't worry, it's very safe here."
"Well, you pick a tree you like, and Grandpa Cui will get you a small branch."
Hearing this, Jiang Yingcheng raised his head hesitantly and looked inside. He seemed to have mustered up great courage and pointed casually: "That, that tree is very beautiful."
Cui Yue looked up.
It was clearly an ordinary...
Before he could finish his thoughts, he heard shouts of surprise from inside the mansion.
He listened carefully, and after a while, he finally heard a panicked voice.
"The fire is coming!!"
