Chapter 154: Children Are Easily Satisfied

When the Princess Consort of Qi heard that Ren Ce Fei also had a worm gift box, her pupils really shook!

Ren Ce Fei is a pretentious, troublesome person with a sharp tongue.

She was really frightened; who knows how she'll end up blaming Sui Sui?

The Princess Consort of Qi isn't unable to manage her; she just finds her mouth too annoying, so she usually doesn't bother to manage her.

Besides, there aren't many conflicts of interest, so there's no need to wear herself out.

But if the other party really argues with a child…

Thinking of this possibility, the Princess Consort of Qi lowered her head and looked at Sui Sui.

At this moment, the little child raised her little face, wearing an expression seeking praise; she looked especially adorable, making people unable to resist the urge to pat her head.

The Princess Consort of Qi thought, sometimes the child's intentions are good, but the gift is hard to say.

But with such a cute little child, who would bear to quarrel with her?

If Ren Ce Fei really kicks up a fuss, well, she's still here.

She thought, it's just a child—what can you do?

Princess Consort of Qi: ……!

She already felt that her breathing wasn't as smooth as before.

Knowing they needed to wash their hands, it wouldn't be proper to hold it in hand and play with it, so Feng Xuanrui put that worm into his pouch.

The little child wouldn't find the worm scary; she'd think this little thing is rather unique.

Especially when facing Sui Sui's little face seeking praise, the brothers thought……

It's just a worm, and it doesn't bite—what's there to be afraid of?

Playing with a worm is also quite normal.

Now this worm was given by his younger sister, so Feng Xuanrui naturally was happy to take it.

Goodness, the child's happiness—she really can't comprehend it.

If it weren't for finding it unique, a few years ago Feng Xuanrui wouldn't have given Mother Consort a toad.

When they are most curious about the outside world, they like everything and want everything.

But, holding to the idea that although they are timid, they cannot lose to their other brothers, each one pretends not to be scared and even looks happy.

Coil up!

After the meal, the children no longer played with toys or made noise; instead they gathered there, comparing whose worm was bigger, whose worm was more active, and whose worm had better color.

The Princess Consort of Qi turned her head away, afraid that if she looked even one more second, her breathing would become unsteady.

The brothers who received the gifts, although their expressions varied.

Princess Consort of Qi: ……!

Help!!!

Little Six, your nature really hasn't changed at all!

However, this calmness didn't last long.

After soothing like that, the Princess Consort of Qi felt much calmer.

After figuring it out, the Princess Consort of Qi waved her hand indifferently, then gestured for Sui Sui and Feng Xuanrui to go wash their hands; the young masters of the Wangfu should be returning soon, and it's time for them to eat.

Because they had eaten, Sui Sui divided the remaining four gift boxes among the brothers.

She now just wants to escape!

Sui Sui saw that the brothers really liked the gifts she gave, and she was quite happy.

She watched the brothers comparing the worms, gently approached, and whispered: "I'll catch more worms for you brothers tomorrow; there are plenty in Mother Consort's garden!"

Feng Xuanjie:???

Help!

When he was young, due to ignorance, he was fearless.

But now he has grown up and knows fear.

Facing such a soft-bodied thing, he really can't stand it.

If it weren't for fearing to hurt his sister's feelings, he would have already fled!

Another one, or else we might as well take his life.

Feng Xuanjie's face turned pale; Feng Xuancang, watching from the side, sighed helplessly: "Sister, you can't take them all, after all—worm castings are excellent fertilizer, they help flowers grow; if you take them all, Mother Consort's flowers won't grow."

Sui Sui basically doesn't understand these; hearing this theory, she was momentarily stunned.

She dazedly thought, "Oh no, Mother Consort's flowers will wither!"

But that wasn't her intention at all.

Seeing the little girl dazed, Feng Xuancang raised his hand and gently touched her head: "Don't be afraid, the worms you caught today probably aren't all of them; if there are more, they'll still breed offspring, so there will be plenty later, and it won't hinder Mother Consort's flowers from growing—but we shouldn't keep catching them; let's play with something else tomorrow, okay?"

Upon hearing that, Sui Sui realized that's how it was.

She hurriedly nodded: "Okay, third brother, I'll listen to you."

The third brother is the eldest, knows the most, listening to him is correct.

Feng Xuanrui and the others gathered together, having the most fun.

At that carefree age, they are also fearless.

Afraid?

If they weren't restrained, they'd even want to play with snakes.

They're just small animals—what's wrong with touching them?

Princess Consort of Qi: ……!

Considering the worm's usefulness, after Feng Xuancang's persuasion and Feng Xuanjie's cooperation, everyone reluctantly returned these worms to the flower field.

Afraid Sui Sui would feel disappointed, on the way back Feng Xuancang gently stroked the little girl's head: "Sui Sui's feelings, we've all received them, but gifts ought to go to a more meaningful place, right?"

Sui Sui didn't feel disappointed at all.

Because they had eaten, everyone played for a good while.

Every brother was very happy.

It was clear they really liked their own gifts.

At this point, hearing Third Brother say that, Sui Sui nodded firmly: "Yes, gifts should have a greater and better use!"

Actually, Sui Sui didn't fully understand the meaning of these words, but the older brothers' words must make sense, so she just needed to learn them!

Feng Xuanjie felt a bit guilty, because his timidity had let down his sister's gift.

This made him feel very guilty on the way back: "Sister likes peach blossoms, right? Fourth Brother will carve you a peach blossom when I get back, and put it in a vase, okay?"

Seeming to think that wasn't enough, Feng Xuanjie thought it over and shook his head: "No no no, Fourth Brother will carve you one with a flowerpot when I get back, so it can be placed where Sui Sui sleeps, okay?"

Then, with some calming incense, it will surely help the child sleep more fragrant and sound!

When Fourth Brother suddenly offered to give her a gift, Sui Sui clapped happily, lifted her head and smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Fourth Brother."

Feng Xuanrui, hearing this from the side, felt a pang in his heart, wondering what he could give.

However, he could neither carve nor engrave.

But he could buy things!

Thinking of this, Feng Xuanrui slapped his chest and shouted: "Sister, what else do you like? Brother will go buy it for you!"

What do you like?

Sui Sui actually didn't know either.

She felt that now she had people who loved her, food to eat, and clothes to wear.

Having everything, people actually tend to lack desire.

She used to long for a hot meal, a piece of clothing to cover her body, and if she also had a family that loved her, that would be even better.

Now, Sui Sui has everything she wanted; if asked what she wants now, she can't even think of anything.

The little girl honestly shook her head: "Brother, I think things are fine just as they are; I don't want anything."

A child's world is simple: getting what they want makes them happy; they won't develop higher, farther ambitions just because their wishes are fulfilled.

The second watch is at 19:00.
