Chapter 263: Kind Mother

Prince Qi quickly regretted the matter of having left Feng Xuanrui behind.

Because……

Feng Xuanrui is really too rowdy!

He took Sui Sui back to the bed to sleep, and at first he was seriously teaching his sister introductory knowledge, reciting a fair amount of the Three Character Classic, and Sui Sui learned earnestly.

But as they kept learning, the two began pulling threads on the quilt.

Not knowing which thread he tugged, Feng Xuanrui found it fun and pulled together with Sui Sui.

When Prince Qi realized something was wrong……

The blanket's one side was ripped open.

Prince Qi: ……

He quickly had someone replace it with a new blanket, and admonished Feng Xuanrui again, telling him to calm down a bit.

Feng Xuanrui obeyed, but only a little.

Then he started jumping on the bed with Sui Sui.

The system watched this scene and thought……

The soft, high‑spring mattress calls for a quick science lesson.

However, children shouldn't sleep on beds that are too soft; their bones are still developing.

So, we can wait a bit longer.

How soft can a bed made only of a blanket be?

When Feng Xuanrui jumped up, it went thump‑thump continuously.

Prince Qi: ……!

Help!

Can't you be quiet for even a quarter of an hour?

The two children finally got tired from playing and then went to sleep.

Fortunately, they had already washed before getting into bed; although they sweated from jumping, they weren't dirty, and being exhausted, they fell asleep straight away, leaving Prince Qi no room for complaint.

However, the bed was only that big; with two children crowded, Prince Qi tried different angles and found that when he got on, the Princess Consort couldn't, and when she got on, he couldn't.

Prince Qi:?

Prince Qi, angry enough to clutch his waist, in a final fury grabbed Feng Xuanrui and took him to the Side Hall.

Prince Qi went to the Side Hall, settled Feng Xuanrui carefully, covered him with a blanket again, and then returned.

He didn't stay long, only glanced at Sui Sui, then, still uneasy, turned and left.

At the doorway, Prince Qi spoke with the Princess Consort.

He feared that if he squeezed over, the Princess Consort and the children wouldn't sleep well, and also worried about Xiao Liu being alone in the Side Hall, so Prince Qi kept looking back as he went to the Side Hall.

Feng Xuanrui, who dreamed of sleeping with his sister, woke up the next day to the familiar face of the Father King…

The Father King's beard had been trimmed, and his face was cleaned very neatly.

But that's not who he wanted to see!

If it weren't for an urgent need to use the bathroom, he would definitely have spoken to the Father King.

How did he end up outside?

Where's his sister?

Where is that big sister of his?

This matter still made Feng Xuanrui angry during breakfast.

Prince Qi chuckled, and Feng Xuanrui didn't want to engage, turning his head awkwardly, but having to turn back because he wanted to see his sister.

But not the Father King!

The sister is cute, the sister is good.

The Father King won't let him sleep with his sister; the Father King is bad!

Prince Qi wasn't angry either, chuckling, coaxing this one then that one.

After coaxing for a long time, Sui Sui finished breakfast.

Prince Qi felt a bit regretful because he hadn't intervened.

Prince Qi's daily life is uneventful, so he doesn't need to attend court.

When needed, His Majesty will send someone to the Residence one to two days in advance to notify him.

So today, Prince Qi still had an idle day.

However, in the evening, the two young masters of the Residence will return.

Returning just once a month, Prince Qi also places great importance on it.

In the early morning, the Princess Consort was busy; people from Zhuangzi arrived delivering various foodstuffs. She personally inspected, checking what's missing, and could tell them so they could deliver it in the afternoon.

Zhuangzi also knew that at the end of the month the two young masters would return, so all the provisions were certainly sent according to last month's routine.

If anything was missing, they could come again in the afternoon.

Prince Qi was still uneasy; originally he wanted to take Sui Sui with him.

However, Sui Sui's little companions arrived today, and they had to go to the Small Classroom.

Prince Qi, remembering the two sons' return and wanting to accompany Sui Sui to the Small Classroom, hesitated a moment; Sui Sui had already happily taken Tangtang Jiejie's hand and smiled, saying goodbye to the Father King.

Prince Qi: ……!

I only hesitated a moment!

The children were leaving; the Princess Consort didn't stop them much, only called out to Feng Xuanrui.

Feng Xuanrui, puzzled, walked over happily, and then received a pouch, hand‑made by Mother Consort, whose shape wasn't particularly attractive.

Feng Xuanrui：？

I actually could also not want it, Mother Consort!!!

Feng Xuanrui still remembers: the last time he wore the pants Mother Consort personally sewed, the thread snapped in less than half a day; if there weren't another layer inside, his white, plump buttocks would have been exposed!

Nowadays, although this is a pouch, he also doesn't really want it.

But Princess Consort of Qi feels that, because she has been favoring Sui Sui lately, she has been somewhat neglectful of her own children, so she feels extremely guilty and uneasy; she seized a moment to sew a pouch she thought was pretty, and she can't wait to put it on Feng Xuanrui.

If it weren't for not wanting to disturb the two children's play last night, actually she should have put it on him last night.

Feng Xuanrui's face was all scrunched up, while Prince Qi covered his mouth and laughed to the side.

After hearing the sound, Princess Consort of Qi turned her head and glared at him; when she turned back to look at Feng Xuanrui, her expression softened into kindness: "Good child, this is something Mother Consort personally sewed—do you like it?"

Feng Xuanrui：……！

I also don't dare say I don't like it!

Princess Consort of Qi also knows her sewing skills are lacking, but the child is unwilling to accept it, so she still feels a bit hurt.

Princess Consort of Qi thought, she couldn't force the child, and she soon softened her tone: "If you don't like it, you can give it to Sui Sui later."

Such an ugly thing could never appear on Sui Sui!

Princess Consort of Qi thought this to herself, but she couldn't let it show on her face.

No matter what, it's Mother Consort's motherly love; even if Feng Xuanrui doesn't like it, he wouldn't really refuse.

However, upon hearing Mother Consort say she could give it to the younger sister, Feng Xuanrui almost shook his head into an afterimage: "No… this is mine, mine alone, I can't give it to the younger sister."

Feng Xuanrui thought, an ugly thing is fine for me to wear, but I can't bring harm to the younger sister!

Sui Sui just needs to dress beautifully, so that those Jing Cheng snobs who fawn on the powerful and trample the weak won't look down on Sui Sui!

Feng Xuanrui wore the ugly pouch Mother Consort had sewn, tears in his eyes.

After putting it on, he still didn't forget to say awkwardly: "Thank you, Mother Consort."

Seeing the child wearing it, Princess Consort of Qi breathed a sigh of relief, raised her hand and gently stroked Feng Xuanrui's head: "Good child, go to the Small Classroom."

Feng Xuanrui quickly caught up with his brothers' ranks.

As for why he had fallen behind, his brothers were quite curious.

Feng Xuanrui didn't want to share his ugly pouch with them.

But Feng Xuanbo, with his sharp eyes, spotted it and laughed as he asked: "Ah ya, Xiao Liu, what is this?"

Second watch.
