Chapter 1172 Brother and Sister’s Daily Life (1)
Among the twins, the brother’s name is Luo Huaijun and the sister’s name is Luo Muxi.
Xiao Xixi planned to give them nicknames. The older brother would be called Shuijiao and the younger sister would be called Jitang, because she had eaten dumplings and chicken soup when she gave birth to the two children, and she thought they were particularly appropriate!
However, these two nicknames were sternly rejected by His Majesty the Emperor.
He said solemnly: "If you don't want your babies to be traumatized by their nicknames when they grow up, then give them new nicknames."
Xiao Xixi had no choice but to give them new nicknames.
Finally, the brother’s nickname is Changsheng and the sister’s nickname is Keai.
Although they both sound a bit earthy, they are much better than chicken soup and dumplings.
As the older brother, Xiao Changsheng has a strong sense of responsibility and has taken good care of his younger sister since they were young.
When the two children were five years old, the little cutie still didn't know how to rinse her mouth, so she had to ask the nanny to help her.
Xiao Changsheng felt that this was not a good idea. Even if his sister was a princess, she had to learn the basics of taking care of herself, otherwise she would probably be laughed at in the future. He didn't want his sister to be looked down upon.
So he decided to teach his sister how to gargle himself.
"Hold this." Xiao Changsheng stuffed a glass of water into his sister's hand and waited until she held it firmly before letting go.
The little cutie is fair and tender, with two tiny paws. The mouthwash cup is a bit heavy for her, so she has to hold it with her two paws.
She had two little buns on her head, which were specially tied for her by Aunt Baoqin. There were two bows tied on the two buns with ribbons, which made her look very cute.
At this time, she opened her big round eyes and looked at her brother without blinking.
Xiao Changsheng picked up his cup of mouthwash and spoke in a serious tone, just like a little teacher.
"Look at me and drink a sip of water first..."
He opened his mouth, took a big gulp of water, then gulped twice, opened his mouth again and spit the water into the copper basin beside him.
He picked up the cloth beside him and wiped his mouth while going to see his sister.
But I found that my sister actually swallowed the mouthwash!
Xiao Changsheng immediately put down the cloth and sternly taught him, "That's the water for rinsing your mouth, you can't drink it!"
The little cutie blinked his big eyes and said in a baby voice, "But you just said you wanted to drink it."
Xiao Changsheng tried hard to explain: "When I say drink, I mean drink it into your mouth, but don't swallow it. Do you understand?"
The little cutie nodded as if she understood, and the bow tied on her little bun swayed gently with her movements.
So Xiao Changsheng picked up the cup again and demonstrated the process of gargling in front of his sister.
The little cutie imitated his actions, picked up the cup and took a big gulp of mouthwash, then swallowed it with a gulp.
Xiao Changsheng emphasized again: "You can't swallow the mouthwash! You have to spit it out!"
Little cutie: "Oh."
Next, Xiao Changsheng repeated the process of rinsing his mouth five or six times, but the little cutie still couldn't learn how to rinse his mouth.
Finally she patted her belly and burped.
"Brother, rinse your mouth. I won't rinse it. I'm full."
Xiao Changsheng: “…”
Teacher Xiao Changsheng's first class ended in failure.
But he was not discouraged.
After he went back, he thought about it carefully and broke down the whole process of gargling into four steps, and described each key point of these four steps in great detail.
The next day, he transformed himself into a little teacher and began to teach the little cutie one-on-one how to gargle.
This time he didn't rinse his mouth. He kept his eyes on the little cutie the whole time. Once she made a mistake, he would correct her immediately with a very strict attitude.
Even so, the little cutie drank the mouthwash twice more, and it was not until the third time that she completed the correct mouthwashing procedure.
Xiao Changsheng was very puzzled: "Why do you always drink mouthwash?"
Little cutie: "Because there are mint leaves in the mouthwash, it tastes cool and I like it."
After saying this she smiled shyly.
Like her mother, she has two shallow dimples on her lips when she smiles, which makes her look very cute.
Xiao Changsheng returned to his room and took out the diary given to him by his mother.
This diary was a birthday gift from their mother to him and his sister when they were five years old. He and his sister each had one.
The cover of his book is blue, and the cover of his sister's is pink.
Xiao Changsheng gave his diary a theme - Sister Observation Diary.
He opened the blue cover and saw many diary entries inside, each of which was about something related to his sister.
He was still young and could not write many characters. Whenever he encountered such a situation, he would go to the imperial study to ask his father for help. No matter what his father was doing, he would temporarily put down the work at hand and teach him how to write the character stroke by stroke.
Before he knew it, he had learned a lot of words.
Xiao Changsheng turned to the latest page of the diary and wrote on it:
My sister likes the smell of mint leaves.
But why does my sister like mint leaves? Is there anything special about mint leaves?
Xiao Changsheng fell into deep thought.
However, his limited experience was not enough to solve this problem.
Xiao Changsheng is a child with a strong desire for knowledge.
Now that he has a question, he must resolve it.
Xiao Changsheng put away his diary, washed his hands, and went out to find his uncle.
My uncle is an imperial physician with excellent medical skills. It is said that mint leaves can also be used as medicine, so my uncle should know more about mint leaves.
It turned out that his guess was correct, his uncle really knew a lot about mint leaves.
The uncle introduced the habits of mint leaves in detail. At the end, he took out a book that specifically introduced medicinal herbs, handed it to Xiao Changsheng, and asked him to take it home and read it slowly.
Xiao Changsheng likes reading.
He thanked his uncle and went back with the book.
Just when Xiao Changsheng was reading a book seriously, the little cutie ran in.
Today, Aunt Baoqin tied a small bell on each of her two little pigtails. As she ran, the two small bells rang crisply.
The little cutie said excitedly as he laid down on his desk.
"Brother, mother just told me that we will go to school tomorrow!"
Xiao Changsheng had already heard about this from his father, so he didn't react much.
He said seriously, "We have indeed reached the age where we should be enlightened."
Little cutie: "I heard there are many friends of the same age as us in the school. Can I be friends with them?"
Xiao Changsheng: "Being friends doesn't just mean being of similar age, we also need to have similar interests."
The little cutie tilted his head, and the little bell rang crisply.
"What is like-mindedness?"
"Having similar interests means liking the same things. For example, I like reading and you like reading too, so we can be friends." Xiao Changsheng said while pointing to the classics in front of him.
The little cutie immediately shook his head, and the little bell on his head kept ringing.
"I don't like reading, and I don't want to be friends with my brother."
Xiao Changsheng: “…”
