Being lectured by his younger sister, Gu Huaijin's lips twitched slightly. He pulled his sister's hand down, held it in his own, and said good-naturedly, "I know."
"Good boy, brother!" Gu Yaoyao said happily, standing on tiptoe to touch her brother's head, which was much taller than hers.
Gu Huaijin: "..."
Just then, a pregnant woman walked over with a smile.
What are you doing?
"Mother!"
Upon seeing the person approaching, the two little ones shouted out in unison and then ran to the woman.
"Was your little brother good today?" Gu Yaoyao gently touched Wen Nongnong's belly with her small hand.
Gu Huaijin also wanted to reach out and touch it, but he had just been scolded by his father last time, so he held back and ultimately did not put his hand on it. However, he asked with concern, "Did my sister cause trouble for Mother?"
Looking at the two little ones, Wen Nongnong felt an overwhelming surge of affection.
Seeing her son's desire to touch her but his forced restraint, she couldn't help but find it amusing.
My son is so young, but he always tries to act mature and composed. It's so adorable.
However, this is all Gu Linchao's fault; he was too strict with his son.
She took her son's hand and placed it on her pregnant belly, then said with a laugh, "Why do you two think I'm having a girl and a boy?" The key point is that both little ones sounded very certain.
“Because I want a younger brother,” Gu Yaoyao answered first.
Gu Huaijin said calmly, "A little sister is adorable. It would be even better if she were a little sister."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yaoyao pouted and said unhappily, "Brother, you have such a cute little sister like me, why aren't you satisfied?"
Looking at her adorable face, Wen Nongnong couldn't help but laugh. Could this little girl be jealous of the baby in her belly, who she didn't even know was a little brother or sister yet?
Gu Huaijin noticed that his younger sister was unhappy, so he quickly comforted her, "It's precisely because Yaoyao is so cute that I wanted to have another younger sister. Younger sisters are the cutest."
Hearing this, Gu Yaoyao became a little happier and hugged her brother's neck, saying, "In that case, Mother, if you have a little sister, then it's fine."
Wen Nongnong was both amused and exasperated. Did this little girl really think she could decide whether she gave birth to a younger brother or sister?
Seeing that Yao Yao was no longer unhappy, Gu Huaijin couldn't help but turn his gaze to his mother's belly. Her eyes, which were exactly like Gu Linchao's, clearly reflected longing.
He longed for his mother to give him another sister.
Seeing this, Wen Nongnong asked, "Does Xiao Jin like his little sister that much?"
"Yes, I like my younger sister," Gu Huaijin said decisively.
Looking at her son's serious expression, Wen Nongnong couldn't help but tease him: "Xiao Jin hopes that this time your mother will have a sister. Are you afraid that if you have a brother, he will compete with you for the throne in the future?"
Gu Huaijin was taken aback. "Why would Mother think that?"
Seeing that her son was frightened by her words, Wen Nongnong quickly reassured him, "I was just joking, don't be nervous."
Gu Huaijin was born only a few months ago when Gu Linchao held him on his lap, exposing him to the affairs of state and the ways of a ruler. He was being groomed as the crown prince, and although he is still young, he is already far superior to ordinary children.
Therefore, after hearing Wen Nongnong's words, he shook his head and said clearly, "Your subject is not nervous, nor is he afraid that my younger brother will compete with me for the throne."
If he is more capable than me, I am willing to give it to him. But if he is not as capable as me, it will be useless for me to give it to him. He will not be able to hold onto the foundation laid by my father.
I won't take advantage of my age to insist on this position. Everyone should rely on their abilities; the most capable should take it.
Wen Nongnong was shocked to hear these words.
The little guy is very confident and generous.
Unlike other children, he didn't say anything about deferring to his younger brother. Although he was young, he had his own set of principles.
In fact, ever since she was diagnosed with pregnancy again, she had hoped from the bottom of her heart that the baby in her belly would be a daughter, so that the tragedy of brothers fighting and killing each other for the throne could be avoided.
Throughout history, there have been countless examples of brothers killing each other in the struggle for the throne.
She cannot guarantee that her child will be an exception.
But after listening to her son's words, she put her worries aside.
Xiao Jin is so young, yet he has already shown remarkable magnanimity. Therefore, she believes that even if she were to have another son, she would be able to avoid a situation of infighting within the family in the future.
Thinking of this, she squatted down and reached out to hug her son.
Gu Huaijin was suddenly embraced by his mother, his head pressed against her soft chest, and his face flushed with happiness.
He hadn't been hugged like this by his mother in a long time.
Sometimes he envied Yaoyao, who could snuggle into her mother's arms and act coquettishly without restraint, and be held in her mother's arms anytime, anywhere.
He also longed to be held by his mother.
But his father told him that he was a boy and could not be like his sister, so he had to suppress his inner desires and pretend not to care.
But being held in my mother's arms felt so good. Her embrace smelled so good and felt so soft.
Gu Huaijin was so happy he almost lost his bearings.
Seeing her brother being held in her mother's arms, Gu Yaoyao pouted and cried out in protest, "Mother, hug Yaoyao too!"
Wen Nongnong then remembered her daughter, whom she had neglected, and quickly opened her arms to hug her.
When Gu Linchao returned, he saw the mother and her two children huddled together.
What are you doing?
The man's deep voice landed on the heads of the mother and her two children.
