Chapter 187
As soon as Prince Qi mentioned Aunt Chi, Car Maid's expression changed; she softened her voice, wanting to act coquettish, but Prince Qi glared at her again: "Tomorrow let Aunt Chi personally teach you, and you must not spoil my big girl!"
Car Maid:?
I don't even count as a person?
Just a delivery person?
Prince Qi finished speaking and then impatiently gestured to the two maidservants.
The maidservants hesitated a moment, but still helped Car Maid up.
Car Maid was unwilling, but seeing Prince Qi's cold face, she finally pouted, eyes red, and left, looking back every step.
Unfortunately, Prince Qi didn't turn to look at her more, but instead looked at Sui Sui held in Princess Consort of Qi's arms, smiling and asking: "Sui Sui, don't be afraid, they're just playing."
The inner courtyard ladies bickering, Prince Qi didn't really care.
Anyway, the Princess Consort can handle it, so he doesn't need to worry.
He was just afraid of scaring the child.
Thinking this, Prince Qi also felt that Car Maid's behavior wasn't good.
It seems we need to have Aunt Chi teach her for a few more days.
Prince Qi made up his mind, then tentatively stretched out both hands, smiling more lovingly: "Father King, may I hold you?"
Although Prince Qi more eagerly awaited his own biological eldest daughter, looking at Sui Sui's cuteness, especially those eyes, exactly like when he was six.
He felt this must be another kind of fate.
This girl ought to belong to their Prince Qi's mansion.
Maybe Heaven saw his longing for a daughter and deliberately sent her.
Or perhaps, after he acknowledges this girl, his biological daughters will keep coming.
Moreover, the Princess Consort has already acknowledged her; even if he does it for her sake, he surely must also acknowledge Sui Sui.
Besides, he himself quite likes this child.
Their first impression was good.
Prince Qi reached out his hand; Sui Sui didn't dare approach, she instinctively shrank into Mother Consort's embrace, and after hearing Prince Qi's voice, she lifted her head and looked pleadingly at Mother Consort.
Princess Consort of Qi was unwilling, but thinking that Sui Sui would live in the mansion and would need Prince Qi's protection.
So she gently patted Sui Sui's back, softly comforting the little girl: "Sui Sui, don't be afraid, that's Father King, meaning dad."
Not wanting to force the little girl, Princess Consort of Qi said and then softly asked: "Sui Sui, would you like Father King to hold you?"
Sui Sui actually still wasn't too daring.
Although she's young, she's not completely unable to understand.
The aunt who just left looked at her with very unfriendly eyes, and moreover, the other party seemed to still be bullying Mother Consort.
Since Father King is dad, he should be protecting Mother Consort, but he hasn't said much at all, and keeps letting that bad aunt bully Mother Consort.
Sui Sui doesn't really like it, but Mother Consort said to call Father King, and the person has no ill intent, and their gaze toward her is also happy.
Sui Sui thought, since Mother Consort likes it, she'll try to like it too.
Thinking of these, she lightly nodded.
Princess Consort of Qi also noticed that the little girl was somewhat reluctant.
However, the Prince was in high spirits, so she sighed gently and gently handed Sui Sui over.
These past few years, Prince Qi, in seeking a daughter, has held quite a few children.
Thus, his experience holding children is very rich.
Big or small, he can hold them all.
After holding Sui Sui, Prince Qi unconsciously weighed her, then furrowed his brows: "Sui Sui is rather thin; the five-year-olds I held before all felt heavy, but Sui Sui is so skinny you can see her bones."
Prince Qi guessed that Sui Sui's past days were probably not easy.
So he brushed past the topic, didn't elaborate, and quickly smiled: "Our mansion has plenty of things, the chef's skills are good, Sui Sui ought to eat more, grow strong, so no one can bully her!"
Although Father King hadn't protected Mother Consort before, Sui Sui felt his speech was very gentle, like the father she imagined.
So Sui Sui obediently nodded: "Sui Sui knows, thank you, Father King."
The little girl's soft voice made Prince Qi's eyes smile into slits.
He thought, yes yes yes, this is the feeling!
Warm, thoughtful, little darling!
This is the daughter he's been expecting!
Too bad, why isn't she his biological child?
Everyone's eyes look the same, why can't she be his biological child?
Prince Qi feels Sui Sui is not his biological child, which is regrettable.
This child ought to belong to their mansion, should have reincarnated here!
So who secretly intercepted his child?
Thinking of this, Prince Qi is still a bit angry!
Prince Qi, though middle-aged and a bit portly, still has adequate stamina.
So, after obtaining the Princess Consort's consent, he held Sui Sui and walked two circles in the courtyard, looking at flowers, looking at grass.
Ren Ce Fei and Meng Ce Fei watched this scene, their hearts inevitably felt a bit sour.
But thinking of how, when their own children were little, the Prince seemed to have happily held and doted on them, their hearts didn't feel so sour anymore.
Moreover, Ren Ce Fei thinks Sui Sui is quite good; a pitiful child who previously had no one to love her, now someone loves her, which could be seen as Heaven loving a good child.
Meng Ce Fei doesn't know much about Sui Sui, but she thinks that since her son likes the child, it should also be good.
Too bad, now the child is held by the Prince and not let go, she doesn't have the chance to get closer to Sui Sui.
Prince went to the courtyard, and only three women remained inside the room.
Meng Ce Fei didn't want the atmosphere too silent, quickly smiling she asked the Princess Consort whether she had encountered anything interesting when she went to Lanruo Si.
The relationship among the three people is still very harmonious.
They have gotten along for many years; occasional quarrels are unavoidable.
Of course, more often than not, it's Ren Ce Fei's mouth that can't be held back, she retorts at anyone she dislikes.
She still shows mercy in her words toward the Princess Consort, but not necessarily toward Meng Ce Fei.
However, there is no deadly enmity among them; sitting together talking now, the atmosphere is also very friendly.
Princess Consort of Qi, while talking about the interesting things she encountered on the road, also couldn't help but glance outside the gate.
Seeing the Prince getting along well with Sui Sui, Princess Consort of Qi's heart reluctantly settled down.
She withdrew her gaze, listening to Ren Ce Fei complain, in the rear courtyard again someone was pulling someone's hair over something, and someone else got into a fight over feeding the fish.
There are many trivial matters; when Princess Consort of Qi was in the residence, they dared not cause trouble.
Once Princess Consort of Qi left, they started causing a ruckus.
Ren Ce Fei was very annoyed; now, when she started to complain, she showed no mercy.
Sui Sui in the courtyard was held by Prince Qi, who wouldn't let go.
At first, Prince Qi thought Sui Sui's eyes were pretty, they were the round eyes of their old Feng family, so he felt delighted, thinking of holding her more, to get a touch of maiden's aura; maybe he himself would have a daughter!
But as he held her, hearing Sui Sui softly say: 'Thank you, Father King, I know, Father King, okay, Father King.'
Prince Qi was already lost in one 'Father King' after another.
He never knew that the two words 'Father King' could sound so pleasant to hear!
Just as Prince Qi was blissfully immersed in the joy of becoming a father, Sui Sui's face suddenly turned a bit pale, she seemed somewhat uncomfortable, one small hand covered her mouth, the other hand patted Prince Qi, seemingly meaning she wanted to be put down.
Prince Qi jumped in fright, he anxiously asked: 'Sui Sui, what's wrong with you?'
