"How did your father obtain this jade pendant?"
"have no idea"
Upon hearing the words "I don't know," Nan Tianyi's face darkened, and the veins on his hands became visibly prominent.
"But my father told me that this is something my mother left me."
Nan Tian was stunned. 'Mother?'
"Your mother?"
"Uh-huh"
When Nan Tian saw Xiao Xi'er say the word "Mother," her eyes lit up.
"Daddy said that my mommy is very beautiful, loves me very much, and looks forward to my birth every day."
"Father said, where is your mother?"
"Mother... Mother is guarding our home in another world~"
When Xiao Xi'er mentioned Xiao Liyan, she became quite dejected.
Upon hearing Xiao Xi'er mention "another world," Nan Tianyi immediately guessed what it meant.
"You haven't seen your mother?"
"Never seen it before... No, I have seen it before."
Little Xi'er tilted her head and started to recall.
"Daddy said that when I was little, Mommy loved me very much and would hold me every day, but I don't seem to remember."
"Then, Father also showed me Mother's paintings before."
"Mommy is so beautiful! Too bad, I'm not pretty."
"If only I could see my mother..."
As Xiaoxi spoke, her expression shifted from disappointment to happiness, and then from happiness to sadness.
Nan Tianyi didn't know how to comfort Xiao Xi'er, so he remained silent.
"Could you show me a portrait of your mother?"
"No, I can't get in. I'll just stay here and learn to paint with my master."
"When I can draw, I'll draw my mother and show it to my handsome son."
After she finished speaking, Xiao Xi'er turned her gaze to the top of the stage.
Nan Tianyi had lost all interest in watching the show; his mind was in complete turmoil.
From Xiao Xi'er's words, we can infer that she was married, had a daughter, and... she was no longer alive.
In just a short while, Nan Tianyi's heart was like it had been on a roller coaster.
"Little sister Xi'er, I'll take you to see my mother."
At this moment, Luo Bing ran over and pulled Xiao Xi'er down from Nan Tianyi's arms.
Then he walked to the side and started pointing out to Xiaoxi which one on the stage was Yushu.
Nan Tianyi's gaze remained fixed on Xiao Xi'er. Mo Han noticed this and had a vague guess in her mind, but she was still unsure.
By the time Xiao Xi'er finished reading, it was noon. Zou Heng then walked over to Xiao Xi'er's side.
"Miss, it's time to return home. Master is still waiting."
"Yes, yes, I'm going to go back and tell Daddy how good the show was!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, your family members will be here to pick you up shortly."
Xiao Xi'er followed Zou Heng for a couple of steps, then, thinking of Mo Han and Nan Tianyi, she turned back and walked to stand in front of them.
"Sister Han, handsome guy, I'm going home now~ Bye-bye~"
Bye-bye, little Xi'er.
Nan Tianyi looked at Xiao Xi'er without saying a word. After Xiao Xi'er left, Nan Tianyi slightly turned his head.
"Follow them."
"yes"
Without any hesitation, Luo Yi followed Xiao Xi'er's carriage.
"Brother, what happened just now...?"
Mo Han was about to ask the question, but when she saw Nan Tian's raised hand, she immediately shut her mouth.
Royal Palace
After arriving at the entrance of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Xiao Xi'er ran straight inside.
"Daddy~, I'm back~"
Sitting in the courtyard, Qin Jue saw Xiao Xi'er running towards him, who had been nagging him, and opened his arms to catch her.
Qin Jue, as usual, held Xiao Xi'er in his arms and sat down.
"Any fun things to do at lunchtime?"
"Haha...ha...Daddy...hahaha, it itches!"
Qin Jue scratched Xiao Xi'er's tummy, and Xiao Xi'er kept laughing.
Laughing, Xiao Xi'er tried to pry Qin Jue's large hand away.
Qin Jue, seeing that Xiao Xi'er had almost finished laughing, removed his hand and instead gently pinched Xiao Xi'er's nose.
Why aren't you answering Father?
"That's because you were scratching your knees, Daddy."
As she spoke, Xiao Xi put her hands on her hips and turned her head away from Qin Jue.
"But Xiaoxi'er is smiling happily too, isn't she?"
"Hmph"
"Daddy's pregnant, I'm ignoring Daddy~"
This time, Xiao Xi'er refused to look at Qin Jue at all and even pouted her lips.
Seeing Xiao Xi'er's pouting lips, Qin Jue's hands itched, so he pinched Xiao Xi'er's lips.
"Hmm, not bad, we don't need to keep chamber pots in the bedroom anymore." (A chamber pot is a basin or pot-shaped container for urinating and defecating.)
Hearing this, Xiao Xi'er's lips pouted even more.
"Look, it looks just like a chamber pot."
"Sanhezi, from now on, you don't need to have the palace servants prepare a chamber pot for the princess at night."
Sanhezi glanced at Xiaoxi'er in Qin Jue's arms, then smiled and cooperated with Qin Jue.
Bowing low and scraping, he said, "Your Majesty is right."
"This servant will give instructions to Chunhe shortly."
This time, Xiao Xi'er wouldn't stand for it, and she grabbed Qin Jue's big hand with both hands.
"no!!!"
"I'm not a chamber pot!!"
"Daddy, you're so mean!!!"
Hearing Xiaoxi'er's accusations, Qin Jue smiled and said, "What, now you know how to talk to your father?"
"slightly"
Xiao Xi'er pulled down her lower eyelid with one hand, stuck out her tongue, and made a face at Qin Jue.
"Alright, tell Daddy what you did today."
"Uh-huh"
Xiao Xi nodded vigorously, then tilted her head and thought for a while.
