Chapter 133: The Ying Family Lets Loose
Chapter 133: The Ying Family Lets Loose
Ying Zhi happily rushed forward, reaching out to pat SuSu's little head.
As she approached, she noticed something odd.
"Huh?
"My little sister is actually wearing an adorable little hat today."
The tassels on both sides of the hat swayed with SuSu's movements, looking playful and cute.
Moreover, it was quite captivating for young children.
Ying Zhi's eyes were immediately drawn to those swaying tassels.
She even slowed down the frequency of her blinking, following the swaying motion.
It wasn't until Ying Zhi got close to SuSu and extended her hand that she could reach the tassels; then, she snapped back to reality.
Ying Zhi thought, "If I can't touch the little bald head, then touching the tassel is pretty good too?" Feeling that they were already quite familiar with each other, Ying Zhi didn't ask much this time and went straight for the tassels.
SuSu obediently allowed her to touch her head and even cooperated by narrowing her eyes.
Ying Zhi stroked SuSu's head, narrowing her eyes with a smile, and asked loudly, "SuSu, have you been doing well these days?"
Before she could even get SuSu's answer, she saw Liu Hemeng walking over with a smile, "I've been doing great, Ying Pipi. How about you?"
Ying Zhi: ...!
She had forgotten about Liu Mengmeng.
Ying Zhi rolled her eyes at Liu Hemeng and pretended to be disgusted as she said, "Who asked you, Liu Dandan?"
Does she think she's the only one with a nickname?
Ying Zhi wasn't done; wanting to get back at her, she quickly added, "You call me Pipi, but who was it that climbed up on the roof and couldn't get down, crying and refusing to move while clutching the bricks? You little scaredy-cat!"
...
The two girls always seemed to bicker whenever they met.
However, this did not affect their willingness to touch SuSu's head and play with her together.
"SuSu, your pretty pretty sister is telling you that I've been playing so well, spinning higher than Liu Dandan!"
"Nonsense, I was clearly spinning higher!"
...
The two sisters were not willing to back down, so they prepared to put on a performance, each spinning in a circle.
SuSu stood in the middle, looking at the two girls bickering in confusion, but still willing to squeeze in and play with them.
Liu Hemeng and Ying Zhi squeezed closer to each other, grumbling and laughing as they made their way to the empty courtyard outside the palace.
Ying Zhi raised her hand, indicating that she wanted to go first to put on a good show, "I'll spin first!"
Liu Hemeng disagreed, "Why should you go first? I'm older, so I should go first!"
Ying Zhi argued back, "No way! I have a louder voice, so I should go first!"
...
The two girls quickly started arguing.
During the argument, they each freed up one hand to cover SuSu's ears, not wanting to disturb the little girl.
The Eldest Princess watched this scene from a distance, and the worry in her heart finally eased a little.
She turned her head to look at the Qi Princess, who was smiling gently in SuSu's direction, and thought: Although the Qi King is unreliable, the Princess is a good person.
Just look at how she picks her children.
SuSu...
Although she's pitiful, she's a good child.
The Eldest Princess quite liked her.
Although she mostly liked her because, on that day at the village, she had avoided a disaster, and as a result, she also had a better impression of SuSu.
However, initially, she had only looked at this child a few more times because of her clear and bright eyes, and it was because of the Qi Princess's persuasion that she had stayed.
Ultimately, it was all related to this child.
(End of Chapter)Now that SuSu had found a good home, the Eldest Princess was also quite pleased.
The Queen of Qi was beautiful and kind-hearted; she would surely take good care of this child.
As for the Qi King, who was still in another courtyard trying to conceive a child...
Thinking of this unreliable great-nephew, the Eldest Princess could only feel annoyed. Why spoil her good mood by thinking of him?
Ying Zhi was happily playing, and the young princes couldn't sit still any longer.
They had enjoyed playing with SuSu previously, and now, seeing a child, they were naturally excited.
One by one, they poked their heads out, not daring to go too close without their grandfather's permission.
Finally, Sun Shi couldn't bear to see them fidgeting, so she turned and smiled at the Eldest Princess, suggesting, "Mother, why don't we let the children go out and play for a while?"
The Eldest Princess also didn't want to see them squirming like they had eggs under their bottoms, so she waved her hand and let them go out to play.
Ying Junzhi and his younger brothers cheered and rushed out.
Seeing their unreliable behavior, the Eldest Princess couldn't help but caution them, "Ying Junzhi, take care of your younger brothers and sisters, and no fighting!"
The young boys ran quickly, and now only their backs could be seen. Ying Junzhi responded with a loud yes, but the Eldest Princess wasn't sure if he had heard her or not.
She had wanted to say a few more words, but then she thought about how the boys had been startled by the explosion a few days ago and how it had affected their eating and sleeping. It was rare for them to let go of their worries and run around happily, so she decided to let it go for now.
Her great-grandsons, led by the eldest, Ying Junzhi, who was twelve years old this year, were fairly mature for their age.
Of course, in the Eldest Princess's opinion, this maturity was only superficial, and when they were in the mood to cause trouble, they could still be quite a headache.
However, as the eldest brother, he did occasionally shoulder his responsibilities and kept his younger brothers from getting too carried away.
The third prince, Ying Ningzhi, and the fourth prince, Su Xiangzhi, were eight and six years old, respectively, and they were at that awkward age where they bickered constantly.
The problem was that, being so young, they were also very blunt and unfiltered in their speech.
When they got together, their conversations could be quite exasperating for adults.
Both of them were also particularly mischievous.
As soon as they rushed over, they prepared to snatch the bamboo dragonfly from SuSu.
It wasn't that they didn't have their own, but they always wanted what others had.
Ying Zhi knew what was coming as soon as she saw her brothers approaching.
Ying Ningzhi and Su Xiangzhi wanted to snatch the toy, so Ying Zhi turned and ran.
Don't underestimate the little girl; she had quite a bit of stamina.
While running, she even managed to turn and throw a few punches at her brothers, and although she sometimes missed, most of the time, she landed them squarely on their stomachs and chests.
Ying Ningzhi was chubby and had thick skin, so a punch or two didn't bother him at all, and he only became more excited.
Su Xiangzhi, on the other hand, was younger and a bit of a picky eater, so he was thinner.
Those two punches were too much for him, and he gave up, saying, "I don't want to run anymore, and I don't want to play anymore. I'm going to go play with the little girl!"
After saying this, the young boy turned and ran towards SuSu.
Ying Zhi ran off with the dragonfly, leaving SuSu stunned.
Especially those two punches—they startled SuSu so much that her eyes widened, her mouth hung open slightly, and she looked like a startled tanuki.
Su Xiangzhi turned to see this and was delighted, jumping up and down like a monkey that had just escaped its cage. "Cute little sister, here I come!"
His enthusiasm was a bit scary.
SuSu instinctively took two steps back and quietly hid behind Liu Hemeng.
Liu Hemeng had been about to chase after Ying Zhi, but she was also worried about leaving SuSu alone. As she hesitated, she saw Su Xiangzhi charging towards them like a monkey swinging from a tree, and she quickly spread her arms wide, shouting, "No! No one is allowed to bully my little sister!"
