Chapter 204: Sweet Daily Life (VIII)
Jiang Zhaoyue felt soft in the heart when he heard this, and wanted to reach out and touch the little guy's head.
But she was too tired to lift her hands at all, so she could only say: "Mother is not sick, she is just too tired. She will be fine after a rest. Yuan Yao, please don't cry and don't feel bad."
Yuan Yao's dark eyes were filled with tears that were about to fall, and he asked in a milky voice, "Will you be alright after taking a rest?"
Jiang Zhaoyue smiled slightly: "Yes."
Yuan Yao wiped his tears with his small fleshy hands and patted Jiang Zhaoyue's quilt: "Then Queen Mother, go to sleep! Go to sleep!"
Jiang Zhaoyue chuckled softly: "Mother is not sleepy yet, can you sleep later?"
"Sure." Yuan Yao nodded his head: "Then you can go to sleep later."
"Okay." Jiang Zhaoyue turned and looked at Pei Jingzhou.
It was the first time for Pei Jingzhou to witness a woman giving birth, and it was the first time for him to see his beloved give birth. He had not expected it to be so difficult. He was so distressed that he could not speak, and reached out to touch her sweaty forehead.
"I'm fine." After the child was born, Jiang Zhaoyue felt much more relieved.
"This is the last one." Pei Jingzhou suppressed all the emotions in his heart.
Jiang Zhaoyue hummed softly, then asked, "Have you seen Xiaobao?"
"I saw it." Pei Jingzhou said.
"I just saw it too." Jiang Zhaoyue's eyebrows curved slightly: "He looks like Yuan Yao when he was a child."
"Mother, she is not a pig, she is a little monkey." Yuan Yao continued.
Jiang Zhaoyue looked at Yuan Yao: "She is not a pig, not a little monkey, she is your sister."
Yuan Yao blinked his bright black eyes twice and asked thoughtfully, "Sister?"
Jiang Zhaoyue responded: "Yes."
Yuan Yao asked again: "Can she call me Big Brother?"
Jiang Zhaoyue replied: "Sure."
"Very good."
"Um."
Yuan Yao was about to speak, but Pei Jingzhou noticed that Jiang Zhaoyue was becoming increasingly exhausted, so he said, "Yuan Yao, your mother is tired. Let her rest."
Yuan Yao also noticed it and immediately shut his mouth.
Jiang Zhaoyue suddenly felt exhausted and said, "Jingzhou, take good care of Xiaobao."
"I will, you go to sleep." Pei Jingzhou touched Jiang Zhaoyue's cheek.
Jiang Zhaoyue responded, his eyelids became heavy uncontrollably, and he fell into a deep sleep soon after.
She didn't know how long she had slept. When she opened her eyes, she saw Pei Jingzhou and Yuan Yao again.
"Mother." Yuan Yao shouted immediately.
Jiang Zhaoyue asked: "What time is it now?"
Yuan Yao said in a clear voice: "It's evening now, my sister has eaten her fill and is going to sleep!"
"You should eat something too." Pei Jingzhou said.
"Okay." Jiang Zhaoyue was indeed hungry.
Pei Jingzhou personally went to bring the confinement meal.
Jiang Zhaoyue asked in surprise, "Where is Aunt Yun?"
"I'll take care of you." The last time Jiang Zhaoyue gave birth, Pei Jingzhou was not in the capital, and Jiang Zhaoyue was taken care of by Nanny Yun and others during her confinement. This time he was by her side, and he wanted to give as much as possible.
Jiang Zhaoyue was stunned for a moment and asked, "Will this waste the emperor's precious time?"
Pei Jingzhou readily replied, "Precious time should be spent on precious people, right?"
Jiang Zhaoyue deliberately asked: "Am I a precious person?"
Pei Jingzhou looked at her deeply and said bluntly: "You are the most precious person in this world."
Jiang Zhaoyue smiled when he heard the answer he wanted to hear.
"Come, eat first." Pei Jingzhou fed Jiang Zhaoyue.
Jiang Zhaoyue could eat by herself, but since Pei Jingzhou was so willing to feed her, she would just accept it.
After that, whenever Pei Jingzhou had time, in addition to taking care of Jiang Zhaoyue personally, he would also take care of Xiaobao himself. He quickly learned how to hold the baby, change diapers, and coax the baby.
Jiang Zhaoyue didn't need to worry and felt extremely at ease during the confinement period. In the blink of an eye, the day of her discharge arrived. After taking a bath and changing her clothes, she walked out of the bedroom, into the warm sunlight, breathing the fresh air, and immediately felt relaxed and free.
"Are you bored?" Pei Jingzhou asked.
"That's right." Jiang Zhaoyue glanced at Pei Jingzhou: "Other people's confinement period is thirty days, but I lasted forty-five days."
Pei Jingzhou said with reason and evidence: "The last time you gave birth to Yuan Yao, it was on the forty-fifth day, so this time should also be on the forty-fifth day."
"It was different last time." Jiang Zhaoyue was in agony when she heard the bad news about Pei Jingzhou during her confinement period. Imperial Physician Niu allowed her to stay in confinement for forty-five days for the sake of her health.
"Imperial Physician Niu said that sitting for forty-five days is not bad. Look how beautiful you are after sitting for forty-five days." Pei Jingzhou praised immediately.
"What the hell is beauty? I've gained weight on my waist." Jiang Zhaoyue touched her waist.
Pei Jingzhou followed and touched it: "Nonsense, there is no growth at all."
Jiang Zhaoyue said: "It just grew longer."
Pei Jingzhou denied: "No."
Jiang Zhaoyue insisted: "It just grew."
"No, you are still so pretty, slim and beautiful." Pei Jingzhou liked Jiang Zhaoyue no matter what she looked like, but if he said that, the beauty-loving Jiang Zhaoyue would definitely be unhappy, so he sincerely praised her current appearance.
Jiang Zhaoyue turned around and asked, "Do you like it?"
"I like it." Pei Jingzhou answered solemnly.
"How much do you like it?" Jiang Zhaoyue instantly moved closer to Pei Jingzhou and put her arms around his slender waist.
When Jiang Zhaoyue was in the late stage of pregnancy, Pei Jingzhou was worried about her health and firmly stopped her from doing anything wrong. He had been absent for several months because of this. Now, whenever she got close to him, his body would react strongly.
Jiang Zhaoyue saw it at a glance, and became playful. She moved her body deliberately, rubbing against him subtly.
"Zhaoyue, stop making trouble." Pei Jingzhou suppressed some emotions.
Jiang Zhaoyue rubbed it again and said in a low voice, "Just make trouble."
Just as the two were about to engage in a fight, a childish voice rang out, "Mother! Father!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhaoyue quickly let go of Pei Jingzhou.
Pei Jingzhou also suppressed the desire that arose in his heart.
"Mother, Father!" Yuan Yao came running over.
"Yuan Yao is here." Jiang Zhaoyue welcomed him warmly.
"Yeah." Since Jiang Zhaoyue became pregnant, Yuan Yao had touched her belly every day and talked to the little baby Yuan Yuan in her belly. When Yuan Yuan was born, he even called her "sister" every day, and then kissed and hugged her. Now he said happily: "I came to see my sister."
Jiang Zhaoyue deliberately asked, "Don't you even look at Mother and Father?"
"Yes." Yuan Yao said seriously, "But my sister is young, I need to watch her more so that she can grow up well."
"You really love your sister."
Yuan Yao said confidently: "Because he is my sister!"
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou both laughed when they heard this.
At this time, the sound of a baby crying was heard in the room.
"Sister, it's my sister crying!" Yuan Yao shouted and immediately rushed into the room with his short legs.
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou followed in.
The wet nurse was picking up Yuanyuan from the cradle.
"Nanny, why is my little sister crying?" Yuan Yao walked forward, raising his little head, wanting to see what was happening in the cradle. However, he was too short to see anything, so he had to frown and ask, "Is she hungry, did she pee, or poop?"
"Your Highness, the little princess has just woken up and must be hungry," the wet nurse replied.
Yuan Yao urged: "Then feed it quickly."
"Yes." The wet nurse replied.
Little Yuan Yao told what his mother and father had said.
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou have no room to perform.
Soon, the wet nurse fed Yuanyuan.
Yuan Yao immediately stretched out his little arms: "Hold me, hold me, hold my sister for me."
Yuan Yao was small, and Yuan Yuan was even smaller. Yuan Yao had no way of holding Yuan Yuan properly, so the wet nurse would just put Yuan Yuan in Yuan Yao's arms for a while to let Yuan Yao have a good time, and then immediately hug Yuan Yuan back into her arms.
Yuan Yao also knew that he was not good at holding such a small child, so he was satisfied just being able to hold him like this.
"Hold her for me." Pei Jingzhou said.
The wet nurse then handed Yuan Yuan to Pei Jingzhou.
Pei Jingzhou sat down on the stool next to him.
Every time someone holding Yuan Yuan was feeding, changing clothes, or walking, she would get angry if they stood still or sat still. Now that she felt Pei Jingzhou sitting down, her little mouth immediately turned up.
"Sister!" Yuan Yao shouted first.
Jiang Zhaoyue teased, "Yuanyuan."
The bad mood that Yuan Yuan had just been brewing dissipated in an instant, and he turned his little head to look for the person who had spoken.
"Sister, it's the senior brother! It's the senior brother!" Yuan Yao spoke to Yuan Yuan in a baby voice.
Yuan Yuan stared at Yuan Yao.
"Senior Brother is so powerful that he can use the Golden Cudgel! Senior Brother will show you how to use the Golden Cudgel now!" There is a wooden Ruyi Jingu Bang placed behind the door of the main room of Fengyi Palace, and Yuan Yao usually plays with it.
He ran over and took it out to show Yuan Yuan: "Sister, look, this is the Golden Gollum Stick, made by father, it is super powerful."
Yuan Yuan saw it and reached out to grab it.
"You're too small to catch, so I'll show you!" Yuan Yao took two steps toward the open space, then started playing with a "hey yo hey yo" sound. He couldn't help but look back at Yuan Yuan and shouted, "Sister."
Yuanyuan suddenly made a clicking sound, and her little mouth opened, revealing her pink and tender gums, which was so adorable.
Yuan Yao immediately stopped and asked, "Did my sister laugh?"
"Yes!" Jiang Zhaoyue nodded.
Guangyao asked expectantly, "Sister, are you smiling because of me?"
"Of course! She saw how well you played with the golden cudgel! She smiled happily!"
"That's great!" Yuan Yao said happily, then suddenly threw the Ruyi Jingu Bang to the ground and turned around to throw himself into Jiang Zhaoyue's arms: "But mother, I want to cry."
"Why?" Jiang Zhaoyue was puzzled.
"The Golden Gollum Stick hit my head. It hurts." Yuan Yao touched his forehead with his little fleshy hand.
Yuan Yao was so good at using the Ruyi Jingu Bang that Jiang Zhaoyue didn't look closely. Now seeing his red forehead, she realized that he had really hit his forehead just now.
"What's wrong?" Pei Jingzhou hurriedly carried Yuan Yuan forward.
"The golden hoop hit my forehead." Jiang Zhaoyue said, and then said to Yuan Yao: "Cry if you want to."
"But my sister is here." Yuan Yao said, holding back his tears.
"You can cry even if your sister is here."
"My sister knew I was crying, and she no longer recognized me as her senior brother."
"No, as her eldest brother, you tell her stories, make her happy, care about her, and love her. She will accept it no matter whether you cry or not."
"Really?" Yuan Yao was skeptical.
Jiang Zhaoyue said firmly: "Really."
Yuan Yao asked again: "If I cry, am I still a man?"
Jiang Zhaoyue said: "Of course, a man should be honest and responsible in his actions. It has nothing to do with crying or not."
Yuan Yao said: "Then I cried."
Jiang Zhaoyue encouraged: "Cry."
Yuan Yao buried his little face in Jiang Zhaoyue's skirt and started to cry.
Jiang Zhaoyue touched the little guy's head with heartache.
Pei Jingzhou was deeply touched after hearing what Jiang Zhaoyue had just said. He once again felt that being able to know, understand, love and accompany Jiang Zhaoyue was the greatest luck in his life.
Seeing Yuan Yao crying so sadly, he felt very distressed and squatted in front of Yuan Yao holding Yuan Yuan.
When Yuan Yao's crying gradually subsided, Jiang Zhaoyue said, "Dabao, Xiaobao is looking at you."
Yuan Yao raised his eyes when he heard this, and realized that Yuan Yuan was right next to him, so he immediately turned to look.
Yuan Yuan opened his mouth.
"Sister." Yuan Yao called.
Yuan Yuan's little hands were grabbing around.
Yuan Yao leaned over and kissed Yuan Yuan on the little face.
Yuan Yuan made the same milky sound as usual.
Yuan Yao raised his little face and looked at Jiang Zhaoyue. His face was stained with tears, but he smiled happily and said, "Mother, I cried, but my sister still likes me. I just kissed her and she was as happy as before."
Jiang Zhaoyue smiled and said, "Yes, she likes you very much."
"I like my sister very, very much, too."
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou were very pleased to hear this.
Yuan Yao continued to talk to Yuan Yuan, and later spent every day with Yuan Yuan.
One day.
Two days.
Three days.
…
Ten days.
…
One month.
Two months.
Three months.
…
In the blink of an eye, Yuan Yuan is eight months old. Like Yuan Yao, he looks very much like Pei Jingzhou, but he has the charm of Jiang Zhaoyue between his eyebrows and eyes, and he is white and chubby.
However, she has a bad temper. As soon as she learned to crawl, she crawled everywhere. If anyone dared to hold her, she would scream or hit them.
Today, Jiang Zhaoyue ordered the palace servants to spread a mat in the yard, put rattles and other toys on it, and then put Yuan Yuan, who had three sky-high braids, on the mat.
Yuanyuan immediately started crawling around and playing with the toys.
Jiang Zhaoyue watched from the side.
Pei Jingzhou came back with a rare moment of leisure and accompanied Jiang Zhaoyue to watch Yuan Yuan.
At this time Yuan Yao came.
"Sister!" Yuan Yao called happily.
Yuan Yuan happily threw away the toy in his hand and crawled towards Yuan Yao.
Yuan Yao quickly ran over, picked up Yuan Yuan, and walked towards the mat while saying, "Sister, don't climb outside the mat, you will get your hands pricked."
"Ahhhhhhh." Yuan Yuan screamed.
Yuan Yao put Yuan Yuan on the mat.
Yuan Yuan leaned over and kissed Yuan Yao on the face.
Pei Jingzhou turned to look at Jiang Zhaoyue: "Both children love their families."
Jiang Zhaoyue said proudly: "Just follow me, I like to kiss whoever I like, especially you."
I was teased again.
Pei Jingzhou felt very happy.
Yuan Yao came over to greet the two of them, then said, "I'm going to play with my sister."
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou nodded together.
Yuan Yao then played with Yuan Yuan.
Yuan Yuan got angry while playing. Not only did he hit Yuan Yao, he also threw toys at Yuan Yao.
Yuan Yao obviously felt the pain, but he still endured it.
Jiang Zhaoyue couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
Pei Jingzhou said: "Yuan Yuan is small."
"Who says the older one has to give way to the younger one? That's so unfair." Jiang Zhaoyue looked at the two children and shouted, "Yuan Yao."
Yuan Yao turned around and said, "Mother, my sister hit me."
"Fight back!" Jiang Zhaoyue said.
Yuan Yao said in embarrassment: "But my sister..."
Jiang Zhaoyue said firmly: "Fight back!"
"I can't bear to do that."
"Fighting back isn't hurting her, it's for her own good. Fight back!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yao looked at Yuan Yuan.
Yuan Yuan still held the toy and threw it at Yuan Yao without caring about anything.
"Sister, don't hit Senior Brother." Yuan Yao advised.
Yuan Yuan didn't listen.
Yuan Yao advised again: "If you smash it again, the senior brother will beat you."
Yuan Yuan still didn't listen.
Yuan Yao stretched out his little fist and punched Yuan Yuan lightly on the shoulder.
Yuan Yuan was the apple of everyone's eye. When she was beaten for the first time, she was stunned for a moment and then burst into tears with a loud "wow".
"You hit me first!" Yuan Yao said seriously, "It's wrong to hit someone for no reason, do you know that?"
