Chapter 141: Wishing Sui Sui Healthy Growth

~7 min read 1,305 words

Sunshi looked carefully, found the problem was indeed minor, then turned her head and glared at Ying Ningzhi once.

The child shrank back in fear, thought, then grinned and gave a flattering smile: "I didn't do it on purpose, I just didn't watch my control, I thought it was Qiao Qiao…"

Before he could finish the words "rough skin, thick flesh", Ying Zhi glared at him fiercely and even bared her teeth at him.

Ying Ningzhi was so scared she couldn't speak, only managed a flattering smile.

They're just children, can't be trained too harshly.

Sunshi helplessly could only gently soothe Sui Sui: "Sui Sui, don't be afraid, the wound is small, it'll heal quickly after applying medicine, Third Brother is reckless, doesn't know light from heavy, don't argue with him."

Qiao Qiao calls Sui Sui "little sister", Sui Sui calls her "auntie", Qiao Qiao calls her "grandmother"...

Hearing the little granddaughter's words, Sunshi squinted and smiled: "Alright, all ears."

She bent down, gently lifted Sui Sui, and asked softly: "Did you have fun playing with your older brothers and sisters today?"

Perhaps also fearing Sui Sui is unfamiliar with Jing Cheng and can't leave the Residence easily, Ying Zhi thought and shouted: "No problem, I can come find you to play later!"

When he returns to the Residence, I'll give him two punches first!

Ying Ningzhi heard the commotion and also wanted to go out, but Sunshi held her down tightly, fearing that if she rushed back to the Residence she'd cause trouble again!

Only when the carriage vanished around the corner did Princess Consort of Qi finally let out a long sigh of relief.

After thinking it over, this jade pendant seemed appropriate.

Upon close analysis, actually these two kids are of different generations!

But they're just kids, set aside that, as long as they have fun together it's fine.

She also stopped clinging to Sui Sui's hand, turned and took Sunshi's hand: "Grandmother, grandmother, little sister will later come to our Residence to play, we will make her tasty food!"

If it were her, she would also be willing to take her home and raise her.

When Ying Ningzhi saw the grandmother speaking, she hurried over, smiling: "Little sister, little sister, I know I was wrong, really know I was wrong, Third Brother will definitely be careful next time."

However, Ying Zhi kept holding her hand, clearly indicating she wouldn't let go.

She thought, no wonder Princess Consort of Qi likes this child.

Thinking that, Sui Sui gently shook her head: "It's fine, I don't feel pain, I don't blame Third Brother."

The generous invitation was hard to refuse; Sui Sui thought, looked at Sunshi, then obediently nodded: "Thank you, auntie."

The hand that had been holding Sunshi's was withdrawn, letting the other side tie a jade pendant onto her.

After understanding, Sui Sui shook her head: "But I want to stay with Mother Consort and my brother."

Ying Zhi also couldn't say she didn't want to leave.

Not wanting to part from Sui Sui, Ying Zhi gently held Sui Sui's hand and whispered: "Little sister, are you really not going back with me? My Residence has many toys, beautiful clothes, jewelry, and lots of food…"

After Sunshi and Yanshi met the Grand Princess with the children, their party prepared to take leave and return.

Moreover, earlier while they were playing together, Third Brother even held her and helped spin a dragonfly.

At this moment, the system quietly reminded her: "【Sui Sui, auntie is blessing you, you should say thank you.】"

Hearing that, Ying Ningzhi became smug, hands on hips, puffed out her belly, like a victorious general, and circled around Ying Zhi.

The little girl looked bewildered, both pitiful and cute.

The killing aura on Ying Zhi was unabashed, and Ying Ningzhi, recalling past beatings, silently lowered her boastful hands.

The constantly tense Princess Consort of Qi, after seeing off the guests, finally could relax a bit.

Liu He Meng watched for a while, thought, and like an adult reminded Sui Sui: "Little sister, put it away first."

The bracelets and such on her hand, Sui Sui couldn't wear again.

After responding, she thought...

Hearing that, Ying Zhi felt a bit sad, after thinking she had to step back: "Then when you have free time later, you must come find me to play."

Hearing her sister respond, Ying Zhi was pleased.

Mother Consort and Le Le were both teaching Sui Sui that other people's things can't be taken casually.

Thinking of that, Sui Sui, lacking confidence, whispered: "... Okay."

Ying Ningzhi didn't want to accept that, standing there giggling.

When Sui Sui saw auntie offering her something, she quickly waved her hand: "Auntie, I can't take it."

We'll remind later.

Sui Sui didn't know whether she could go out to play.

Sunshi, while tying, laughed: "It should be auntie apologizing for not watching her own child properly; the jade pendant is carved with bamboo nodes, and auntie hopes Sui Sui can grow higher step by step, healthy and thriving."

Maybe it was just careless.

Good-looking, simple-minded, and has that same pitiful past experience.

After speaking, she didn't rush into the carriage, kept waving at Sui Sui.

Mother Consort wasn't beside her, Aunt Xiang Gugu stood far away, and Sui Sui for a moment didn't know whether to accept or not.

Sunshi affectionately patted the little girl's face, glanced at the wound, then got up to check on her own pet skin monkeys.

Sunshi lifted her hand, gently touched the little girl's shoulder, tone coaxing: "Sui Sui, just keep it safely, this is a token of apology."

But Sui Sui thought, she liked her brother and Mother Consort more.

Even without their reminders, because of past experiences, Sui Sui wouldn't dare take things casually.

Ying Ningzhi caused trouble, now she is being honest.

Princess Consort of Qi held Sui Sui's hand, leading Liu He Meng and a group of servants, escorting them to the Residence gate; watching them board the carriage, Ying Zhi peeked out again: "Little sister, remember to come find me to play!"

Sunshi softly soothed Sui Sui's emotions, and untied a beautiful green jade pendant from her waist, fastening it to Sui Sui's waist.

Hearing that, Sunshi helplessly gave him a look: "No next time, speak again when you can control your strength."

Sunshi's heart softened again.

These things are indeed tempting.

Sui Sui no longer feels pain right now, and she doesn't blame Third Brother.

Though Third Brother tugged her hat and scratched her chin, Sui Sui felt no malice from him.

Sui Sui also copied her, waving her hand.

Ying Zhi: ……

My fist clenched!

Sui Sui has kept this in mind.

You shouldn't casually take off what's on your head; if it came loose at someone else's residence, that would be extremely impolite.

This seniority is really messed up.

But Sunshi doesn't have anything else suitable at hand.

Hearing this, Sui Sui glanced at the jade pendant, then at Sunshi, and said softly, "Thank you, Auntie."

Though the two households are on good terms, daily etiquette still requires attention to many details.

Seeing the child's uneasy look, Sunshi's heart softened and she spoke gently: "Third Brother hurt you—that's his fault. Though he apologized and you forgave him generously, I still feel uneasy, so I'm giving this to you as compensation, okay?"

This is rather complicated, and Sui Sui can't quite grasp it.

Liu He Meng stood aside and, out of courtesy, waved his hand.

Third Brother is a good person.

Actually, the adult's jade pendant isn't really suitable for Sui Sui.

While speaking, the Princess Consort of Qi also took Liu He Meng's hand with her other hand.

The Princess Consort of Qi thought: "I must also take good care of my daughter's little companion."

Second watch.
