Chapter 151 The Tenth Day



The moment Xiao Bao saw Ye Qingxue, his eyes flickered, and then he stepped forward and took Ye Qingxue's hand.

His hands were still very cold, without the normal body temperature, but Ye Qingxue was already used to it and did not pull her hands away.

"Mommy, can we go out and play today?" he asked in a childish voice. "I've never gone out to play with Daddy and Mommy before. I heard that candied hawthorns are sweet and sour and very delicious. I want to try them."

Yes, today is the last day. By this time tomorrow morning, Ye Qingxue will die from the poison.

Xiao Bao hoped that Ye Qingxue could spend her last day with him, so that his journey into this world with his mother would not have been in vain.

Qiu Shen said, "Miss, why don't you take Xiao Bao out for a walk? You've been back at the Marquis's residence for many days, and you haven't had a chance to see the sights of the capital."

She also hoped that Ye Qingxue could have a relaxed and happy last day, and Xiao Bao's suggestion was good.

Yun Zhuojing stepped forward and said, "Let's go. Today, I, as your guard, will protect you both."

Looking at the sky, he added, "March is the perfect time to fly kites."

Xiao Bao's eyes lit up: "Great! Let's fly a kite! I've never flown a kite before."

Ye Qingxue rubbed his little head. This child looked at least five years old, but there were so many things he had never eaten or done before.

Ye Qingxue squatted down and said to him, "Okay, after breakfast we'll go shopping and I'll take you to fly kites."

Chunqian came out and said with a smile, "It's not even dawn yet, but Xiaobao dragged me out of bed and insisted that I make breakfast early. Miss, please go and have breakfast while it's hot."

After everyone had breakfast and Ye Qingxue took her medicine, she led Xiaobao out of the gate of Lixue Residence, where Yun Zhuo was already waiting.

As dawn breaks in the east, the morning breeze breaks the spell of day.

The three of them arrived at the street, which was filled with the sounds of vendors hawking their wares. The weather was nice today, and the place was bustling with activity.

Xiao Bao deliberately walked between Yun Zhuo and Ye Qingxue, holding one person's hand in each hand, making it look as if Yun Zhuo and Ye Qingxue were each standing on one side, leading their child on a stroll.

Before long, Xiao Bao's following words rang out.

"Father, Mother wants to eat those sugar shortbreads, could you go and buy some for her?"

Yun Zhuo glanced at Ye Qingxue, said nothing, and turned to buy it. Fortunately, although he was once the crown prince, he was not incapable of spending money.

At least on the battlefield, he relied on himself for many things, and he also strolled the streets with his men in the frontier.

"Daddy, that sugar figurine looks good, Mommy wants to eat it," Xiao Bao said again.

Yun Zhuo took a deep breath, squatted down, and said to Xiao Bao, "If you want to eat, then you want to eat. Don't use your mother as an excuse. Adults don't like children who lie for no reason."

Xiao Bao blinked twice and asked in a soft, sweet voice, "Daddy and I don't seem to know each other very well. If I say I want to eat this, will you buy it for me?"

Yun Zhuo pursed her lips, glanced at Ye Qingxue, and said, "If your mother agrees, I'll buy it."

Ye Qingxue's heart skipped a beat. What did those words mean?

He'd buy it as long as it made her happy.

Seeing Xiao Bao looking over, Ye Qingxue quickly said, "You helped me a lot before and even saved Young Master Ling's life. It's rare for me to bring you out today, so we'll buy you whatever you want."

Xiao Bao pointed to a small stall not far ahead and said, "I've been eyeing that tofu pudding for a long time. It looks sweet and delicious."

Ye Qingxue asked Xia Lü to buy it for him.

Xia Lu bought one for everyone. Ye Qingxue was in pain all over and had a poor appetite, but she still managed to eat some.

I continued walking and bought some trinkets, such as paper windmills, cloth tigers, nine-linked rings, spinning tops, and so on.

They then happily ate their candied hawthorns, one skewer each, and finally bought kites and headed to the outskirts of town.

At this time of year, the weather is nice, and many people are out enjoying the spring scenery, including flying kites on the grass.

When Ye Qingxue and the others arrived, there was still someone organizing a kite competition. Xiao Bao immediately took his huge phoenix kite and went over to express his desire to participate.

He chose the phoenix kite himself, saying at the time, "I believe that my mother will one day rise from the ashes like a phoenix, so I want this phoenix kite!"

His youthful voice spoke earnestly and firmly, as if someone could truly rise from the ashes like a phoenix.

Children of all ages gathered around, accompanied by their parents, chattering excitedly.

With Yun Zhuo's help, Xiao Bao's kite flew the highest.

Under the azure sky, the phoenix spreading its wings looked as if it were about to rise from the ashes at any moment.

Ye Qingxue stood on the grass, looking up, feeling the gentle breeze caressing her skin, bringing warmth, and the warm sun shining on her...

She couldn't help but say, "It feels just like being back at the Jingzhou Manor."

Only at that time was I so carefree.

Occasionally, she would fantasize about what the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion was like, what her biological mother was like, and what life would be like to grow up being cared for by her biological mother.

Xia Lu's eyes stung, and tears welled up in her eyes. She quickly turned around and wiped them away.

Her young lady will never have the chance to return to the Jingzhou estate.

Xia Lu had no choice but to hand over the snacks she had bought on the street and ask, "There's still a lot of sugar pastry left, would you like some, Miss?"

Before Ye Qingxue could speak, she saw Xiao Bao's kite suddenly tilt, tilting further and further. He ran desperately, but the kite still slowly fell down and got tangled in a big tree.

"Ah!" Everyone sighed, feeling a little regretful. They had thought that Xiao Bao's phoenix kite would win first place!

Xiao Bao was so anxious that he stomped his feet and pushed Yun Zhuo towards the big tree, clearly wanting Yun Zhuo to think of a solution quickly.
