Chapter 251: I

That night, Sui Sui not only listened, but also watched videos and looked at picture materials.

In short…

Before saying thank you and good night to little aunt, Sui Sui felt terrifyingly strong!

She thought, if a cow were in labor right now, she could definitely help!

Little aunt heard the child's muttering and couldn't help reminding, "You can't do it, Sui Sui, you're still a child; this kind of rough work should be done by adults. With your tiny arms and legs, can you even grab a cow's hooves?"

Sui Sui heard that and thought the same, solemnly nodding, "I've noted it, thank you, sister."

Little aunt was dazzled by the child's milky voice, became dizzy, and in a near‑demented state actually stole the child.

Unfortunately, she was an astral projection; after finishing the story she had to return.

Tomorrow morning, she still has to feed her cows, sheep, pigs, horses, chickens, ducks, and so on.

Alas!

Raising a child…

She fears she can't raise it well either.

There are so many things waiting for her to feed.

Even if it's fully automatic, it still needs to be turned on manually.

Until she got up the next morning, Sui Sui still felt terrifyingly strong.

Although it's a pity she can't act herself.

But with theory in hand, Sui Sui thinks anyone could do it!

She can't go, but Xiang Gugu and Nuan Dong can!

Just insert a hand into the cow's rear, and you can help a cow in labor!

Saving one cow preserves an important productive asset!

When Sui Sui thinks about it, she finds this theoretical knowledge very useful.

Little aunt didn't know that after listening to the whole night's story, Sui Sui remembered only one thing: hand into the cow's rear.

She didn't remember a single thing about tetracycline, garlic extract, or any of the other details.

She even showed Sui Sui the extraction process for garlic extract and tetracycline.

Little aunt thought the child might not retain it, but she didn't expect…

Not a single thing was remembered.

Little aunt: …

I really did my best.

But who let you pick a child to listen to the story?

Even a child two or three years older?

The problem is, Sui Sui still doesn't recognize many characters!

Now she only knows the six characters 'Ren Zhi Chu, Xing Ben Shan'.

She even writes the character meaning 'goodness' in a single stroke, and still doesn't recognize it!

The next day, Sui Sui is to enter the palace.

She changed into that light‑blue embroidered dress; the outfit looks more solemn and fits formal occasions.

Since the child's hair hasn't grown yet, she also got a new hat.

The little hat is beautiful and elegant, with tassels studded with pretty gems that sparkle in the sun as she walks.

Princess Consort of Qi, while adjusting Sui Sui's hat, smiled and said, "This is a hat sent by Qiaoqiao Jiejie; do you like it, Sui Sui?"

Sui Sui still remembers Qiaoqiao Jiejie, so when Mother Consort asks, she nods happily, "I like it, I like the hat, and I like Qiaoqiao Jiejie."

Seeing the little girl so happy, Princess Consort of Qi also feels glad.

But noticing Sui Sui's ears are still empty, Princess Consort of Qi thinks, 'Shall we pierce her ears?'

It always feels a bit regretful.

Thinking of this, she turns her head to look at the Prince.

Prince Qi now watches his beloved obedient child with an admiring expression.

Sensing the Princess Consort's gaze, he turns his head and asks puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Princess Consort of Qi touches her earring, not wanting to frighten Sui Sui.

Prince Qi immediately understands, changes his expression and shakes his head, "That won't do; my treasure is so precious, I disagree!"

Princess Consort of Qi had anticipated this, didn't press, and simply nods.

But after Prince Qi lifts Sui Sui, he looks closely and sees no earring; her ears are empty.

Two days earlier he asked a craftsman, who said a clip could be made to attach to the ear.

However, if worn long, the ear will still hurt.

Compared with ear piercing, one is a lingering pain, the other a brief pain; let's see which the Prince chooses.

Prince Qi is displeased.

Prince Qi wonders, "Who invented ear piercings?"

How annoying.

If they hadn't invented them, his obedient one wouldn't have to suffer!

Today, bringing Sui Sui into the palace to give thanks, the young master of the Residence need not accompany.

Feng Xuanrui originally wanted to sneak through, and follow along.

But Master Shen mercilessly dragged him back, and he had to attend class.

Sui Sui stepped out of the Residence, and from afar could still hear her brother's voice: "I'm not trying to skip class, Master, I just wanted to see off my sister, really, don't pull me, ahhh!"

Sui Sui looked anxiously toward the direction of the Residence, leaned close to Father King's ear, and whispered, "Brother, does it hurt a lot?"

Prince Qi thought, "It doesn't hurt at all!"

But as the words reached his mouth, he felt they were not refined enough.

His dear one, how could he hear such words?

Prince Qi quickly recovered, twisted the words between his lips, and changed his phrasing: "No, brother just doesn't want to attend class, just making an excuse; he isn't in pain."

Sui Sui was coaxed, still uneasy about brother, but Prince Qi quickly shifted her attention.

A child's attention really is easy to divert.

Prince Qi said he would take her to see the big horse.

Sui Sui immediately thought of the hand‑in‑cow‑butt trick, raised her hand and said, "I know, I know Father King—if a horse has difficulty giving birth to a foal, just stick your hand into its butt and pull the foal out!"

Prince Qi:???

Without exaggeration, the moment he clearly heard what Sui Sui said, Prince Qi's pupils literally trembled.

He thought, "Damn it, which bastard said such vulgar words in front of my dear one?"

Is he trying to corrupt my dear one?

Prince Qi glared around, frightening everyone into instinctively pulling back their heads and lowering them.

Princess Consort of Qi had just spoken with Ren Ce Fei, turned around and saw Prince's eyes wide and a fierce face scanning the surroundings.

Princess Consort of Qi, puzzled, asked softly, "What's going on?"

Prince Qi wanted to speak, but felt the words were indeed indecent and didn't want Sui Sui to hear, so he just gritted his teeth and said, "Nothing."

After speaking, still dissatisfied, once on the carriage, while soothing Sui Sui, he whispered to the Princess Consort, "The Residence's rules, when they should be strict, must be stricter; don't let the servants say anything. If they truly disobey, beat them to death and throw them out. You mustn't be soft; you are the matriarch of the Wangfu, everything comes first for you. If you are merciful and considerate, they may not appreciate it."

Just a moment ago everything was fine, why did you suddenly lose your temper so badly?

Princess Consort of Qi, still puzzled, looked at Sui Sui, saw the little girl tilting her head with a puzzled expression, and couldn't help asking softly, "What's happening?"

Princess Consort of Qi thought, she has been much stricter lately.

In the Residence, because Car Maid and Concubine Su were consecutively sent away by a grand display, now everyone is tucking their tails and behaving meekly.

Who would step forward at this time, not looking for trouble?

Princess Consort of Qi hadn't heard Aunt Qiu mention which courtyard's concubine servants were unruly.

Prince Qi, though reluctant to speak, thought and couldn't hold back: "I don't know which damn bastard, actually trying to corrupt the princess of my Wangfu; he taught Sui Sui to say, to say… the hand‑in‑butt words!"

I am terrifyingly strong today!
