Chapter 20: Grow Older but Not Smarter



Is this little guy too greedy for money?

She just misses him, why does she mention a gift for meeting him?

Today is Yangyang’s hundred-day banquet, and he has prepared some gifts.

He felt it in his arms.

After groping for a long time, he finally took out a small pure gold bracelet and put it on Yangyang.

"Do you like it, Yangyang? This is a gift prepared by your second uncle for you for the Hundred Days Banquet."

[Wow, I like it. My second uncle is so rich. I love him so much! ]

Yun Yi raised the corner of his mouth, feeling very proud.

Although I don’t know whether Yangyang likes him more or the gold bracelet more, the gold bracelet was also given to her by him.

Yangyang likes the gold bracelet, which means she likes him.

He happily stretched out his hands and hugged Yangyang.

"Yangyang, let your second uncle hug you."

[Okay, for the sake of the gold bracelet, I'll let you hug me! ]

Hearing this, Yun Yi's mouth twitched.

Why did he feel that Yangyang was somewhat reluctant?

Seeing that Yangyang was willing to let Yun Yi hold her, Yun Wanrou handed Yangyang to him.

"Yangyang is still young and her body is very soft. You should be careful when holding her."

"I know! When Heng was a child, I held him in my arms a lot. I have experience!"

Yun Yi's eyes narrowed and he excitedly took Yangyang over.

Holding the little Tuan, he suddenly felt that holding Yangyang was different from holding Hengge'er.

Yangyang feels so soft holding him, which is much more comfortable than holding Hengger.

Yun Yi thought to himself and looked down at Yangyang in the cradle.

Yangyang's little face is white and tender, and her big watery eyes look like two big, round black grapes.

The little cherry-like mouth, slightly pouting, looks so adorable.

The more Yun Yi looked at it, the more he liked it.

He couldn't bear to return her to Yun Wanrou.

Yangyang looked at him and twisted her small body slightly.

[My second uncle’s body is hard, not as soft as my mother’s. It’s uncomfortable to lie on it! ]

Being disliked by his own niece, Yun Yi couldn't keep the smile on his face.

But when I thought about it, I realized that he was the only one who could hear Yangyang's voice.

As long as he didn't say it, no one would know that Yangyang disliked him, and he started to smile foolishly again.

“This is my niece!”

"Look, Yangyang is my niece. She looks so much like me."

"Isn't she cute? She's my niece. Follow me!"

Yun Yi held her in his arms and showed off to the guests.

Yun Wanrou followed behind him, smiling helplessly and shaking her head.

How come his second brother only grows older but not smarter? He smiles like a fool.

Yun Yi held Yang Yang in his arms and came to Yun Xiucheng's table.

Yun Wanrou followed behind him and saw Meng Yanchen was there too, so she greeted him.

Meng Yanchen nodded, took out a bead from his arms and handed it to Yun Wanrou.

"This is the night-shining pearl from the East China Sea. Children are afraid of the dark, so I had someone find it and give it to Yangyang as a hundred-day-old gift."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Yun Wanrou knew Yangyang's personality and knew that he would definitely ask her to accept it.

She didn't bother to be polite with Meng Yanchen, took the night pearl and kept it for Yangyang first.

Yangyang stared at the bead with his eyes wide open.

[What a huge night-shining pearl, bigger than my head. This is the first time I have seen such a big pearl.]

[Prince Daddy, you are my dear daddy, you are so generous. I want Daddy to hug me and kiss me! ]

Yangyang stretched out her arms, which were as thin as lotus roots, and she wanted to throw herself into Meng Yanchen's arms immediately.

Her big eyes were sparkling and tears of excitement flowed from the corners of her mouth.

Seeing her open her toothless mouth and smile happily, Yun Yi felt very hurt.

Yangyang is such a heartless guy that he falls in love with every girl he meets.

Seeing that the gift given by the prince was better than his, she rejected him.

Woo, woo, woo, his heart aches so much, it’s bleeding!

"Does she want me to hold her?"

Meng Yanchen turned around and looked at Yangyang.

Seeing her trying to stretch out her two claws, a smile appeared on her face.

This little guy really has a connection with him.

Not only could he hear her thoughts, but he also felt very close to her.

I just don’t know if she calls everyone she sees daddy?

Yun Wanrou was slightly stunned when she heard Meng Yanchen's words.

The King of Qi is of noble status, so even if Yangyang wanted him to hug her, she wouldn't dare to agree!

"Yangyang is naughty and is playing with the prince!"

Yun Wanrou raised the corners of her mouth slightly, smiling gently and generously.

When Yangyang heard her words, he kicked his legs in anxiety.

[No, no, I'm not playing with Daddy. My Lord, please hug me. I want Daddy to hug me! Wow...]

Yangyang looked at Meng Yanchen. There was a layer of mist in her black grape eyes, and it seemed that she was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Meng Yanchen wanted to hug her.

But his arm moved and pressed down again.

He has never held a child and has no experience.

If I suddenly hug Yangyang, I might accidentally hurt her.

He withdrew his gaze from Yangyang and pretended not to understand her thoughts.

Yun Xiucheng waved to Yun Wanrou: "Rou'er, come and sit down!"

"good!"

Yun Wanrou walked slowly forward and came to Yun Xiucheng's side.

She and Meng Yanchen were on the left and right, with Yun Xiucheng in between.

Seeing that they were very close, Yangyang became excited again.

[Come closer, come closer. The prince is good-looking and generous. Mother, you must be brave enough to bring the prince back and kick that big pig's hoof Jiang Huaishu.]

[But grandpa, why are you so ignorant? Look at how well-matched mother and father the prince are, why are you standing between them? ]

Yun Xiucheng: “…”

Or should he stand up and give their seat to them?

Yun Xiucheng just thought so but didn't do it.

Although he also had high hopes for Yun Wanrou and Meng Yanchen, his Rouer was already married after all.

She gave birth to a child for the Marquis's Mansion, and was destined to have no chance to be with Meng Yanchen in this life.

He felt regretful, yet fortunate that there was him between the two of them.

Otherwise, it would be really inappropriate to let the two of them sit together.

While everyone was chatting and laughing, Jiang Huaishu came following behind Qian with his two illegitimate children.

Qian first paid her respects to Meng Yanchen, then took out a longevity lock and placed it on Yangyang's chest.

"Yangyang is so cute. She becomes even more obedient after wearing the longevity lock."

Qian's eyebrows curved, and she glanced in Yun Xiucheng's direction with a smile.

Seeing that Yun Xiucheng didn't look at her, she continued, "When Yangyang was just born, I sent someone to make this longevity lock. It's finely crafted, but I didn't get it until now."

"Thank you, mother."

Yun Wanrou slowly stood up and bowed to Qian.

Yangyang put his hands together and held up the longevity lock.

Feeling the weight of the longevity lock, Yangyang pouted in disgust.

The longevity lock is very light in the hand, golden on the outside, but hollow on the inside.

[It’s so light, it must be hollow inside! Why do I feel that the gold bracelets on the hands of those two concubines are better than mine? ]

[The old lady must have felt sorry for the scraps left over from making the gold bracelet. So she used the scraps to plate a layer of gold on the longevity lock? No wonder it took her longer to make a piece of scrap copper than it did to make the little gold lock that the prince ordered people to make! ]

The Yun family heard Yangyang's thoughts, looked at Qian, and then looked at the two concubines brought by Jiang Huaishu.

Seeing that the two concubines each wore a small gold bracelet on their wrists, he couldn't help but frown.
