Now that their Mother gave them their new courtyard, they know that she still cared about them.
That thought alone made them content and happy.
“Second Sister! Second Sister!” Sun Ke was still young and didn’t quite understand the significance of the three bedrooms.
Sun Yi smiled and squeezed her tiny cheeks, “Come, I’ll take you to see your room.”
Sun Ke’s room was very cute.
Sun Yi tapped Sun Ke’s forehead, “Did you take a closer look?”
How could Sun Ke have the time to look carefully?
She just glanced around the area and thought it looked good, and hurried to the next room.
Sun Yi pointed things out for her to see.
“Wow, is this a roly-doll?”
“You can also give her some dresses.”
“Wow, this doll is so cute.”
“This little piggy…”
There were also a bunch of monkeys hanging on the bed, and a big piggy that could be hugged to sleep.
Sun Ke’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Why didn’t I notice any of these just now?” Sun Ke grabbed one in her hand and rubbed it vigorously.
Sun Yi smiled.
Ah-Yao came stomping into the room.
He pulled out a snake from under the bed.
Handed it to Sun Ke, “Sister, here!”
That snake was very cute.
Sun Ke also fell in love with it in one glance, “Did you put it down there?”
Ah-Yao nodded vigorously.
“Ah-Yao is so kind.” Sun Ke hugged Ah-Yao and kissed him a few times.
Ah-Yao giggled.
Then he pulled another snake from under the bed.
Sun Ke was very surprised and quickly lay down on the ground to look.
“There’s no more!”
Ah-Yao giggled loudly.
Sun Ke also laughed out loud.
They also brought presents for Ah-Yao, all of which were small dolls made by themselves.
Ah-Yao doesn’t really like this kind of stuff.
After playing for a while, he quickly lost interest and stared at the candy in Sun Ke’s hand.
“Sister, candy.”
Sun Ke just fed him one.
Sun Xiu and Sun Yi started to organize their belongings.
Some things remained in Chenzhou, while their favorite and valuable items were brought over.
When Han Qiao walked towards their room, she heard the laughter of the two siblings from afar.
After she entered, Sun Xiu and Sun Yi immediately ran to her, “Mother!”
After not seeing each other for a few months, the three children have grown taller and look more and more outstanding.
They were well-behaved and beautiful.
“Have you seen the rooms? Do you like it?” Han Qiao smiled and led her daughters into the house.
“I like it. Mother has gone through a lot of trouble.” Sun Xiu said softly.
Sun Yi smiled and nodded, “I like it very much!”
“As long as you like them.”
Han Qiao could easily tell what her children’s preferences were.
She was in charge of decorating the things in their rooms, picking suitable furniture for them, and ordering people to prepare them.
It wasn’t because she didn’t want to do these in person, it was because her days were getting busy.
The mother and daughters hadn’t seen each other for several months, and they were a little distant at first.
But soon, they began to chat like they hadn’t left each other, and the atmosphere became warmer and warmer
When Sun Ke and Ah-Yao returned from their exploration, there were two more chatterboxes, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.
Ah-Yao was next to Sun Ke for a while, and the two siblings secretly sneaked a few bites of candy into their mouths.
Han Qiao noticed but didn’t expose them.
How much candy could Sun Ke bring? It would disappear soon.
Han Qiao wanted to stay for a while longer, but Shulan came to inform her of other matters.
Han Qiao turned to Sun Xiu, “You tidy things up first, then come and tell me if there’s anything more that you need, or you can also tell Dong Lai to get things for you.”
“Ah-Yao can stay with you three.”
“Don’t worry, Mother. You can leave us,” Sun Xiu said obediently.
The three sisters watched Han Qiao’s back as she left.
“Mother is very busy,” Sun Ke said.
Ah-Yao nodded in agreement.
Sun Yi looked at Ah-Yao and asked him, “Does Mother accompany you every day?”
Ah-Yao shook his head, “No.”
“I play with Brother Cheng’er and eat with Brother Cheng’er.”
‘So that’s how it is,’ Sun Yi thought to herself.
Her jealousy disappeared.
Sun Xiu squeezed Sun Yi’s hand, telling her not to worry too much.
Sun Yi nodded, and went to hug Ah-Yao and kissed him, ”1 will give you something nice.”
“Sister, Sister!” Ah-Yao said sweetly.
The little boy obediently followed behind Sun Yi.
Sun Yi made him gloves, a tiger hat, and tiger shoes.
“Wow!”
Ah-Yao liked them very much.
He was about to put it on, and Sun Yi smiled and helped him change.
Then he just growled like a tiger and chased after Sun Ke.
“Ah, tiger, don’t bite me! Tiger, don’t bite me!”
On the courtyard next door, which belonged to Duofu, the Nanny sighed slightly as she stared at the sleeping baby.
When they were in Chenzhou City, the three young ladies cared for the Fourth Young Lady, but there were still differences.
The Eldest Young Master was very busy, and the Eldest Young Mistress also had a lot on her plate. She told her to take good care of the Fourth Young Lady, but other than that… Nothing.
“Ha…”
She hoped the Madam would value the Fourth Young Lady, otherwise, this poor baby would have a difficult life in the future.
There was a small garden and gazebo between Han Chi and Li Mi’s courtyard and the three sisters’ courtyard, so the laughter could not reach them.
He Cheng hadn’t seen Han Chi for a long time, and Han Chi brought him to ask about how his studies were going.
He Cheng couldn’t answer.
He couldn’t memorize the “Three Character Classic”, let alone the “Thousand
Character Classic”, and the same goes for the “Hundred Surnames”.
Han Chi shook his head helplessly.
He wanted to tell He Cheng that he had to rely on his own hard work for everything. Everything in the Marquis’ manor had nothing to do with him.
But looking at the innocent He Cheng…
He patted the younger’s head.
Han Chi silently sighed to himself. He Cheng could take his time, he was still young.
Han Chi asked Li Mi to let the servant girl do the tidying up, so they could go and see Ah-Yao.
Li Mi thought for a while and agreed gently, “Okay.”
She could take her time cleaning things up later.
The people she brought were also capable, so she did not have to keep an eye on everything.
When the sound of Ah-Yao and Sun Ke’s laughter reached their ears, He Cheng became a little restless.
“Brother, Sister-in-law.”
“Go ahead,” Han Chi laughed.
With that, He Cheng ran off towards the noise.
Li Mi moved closer to Han Chi, “Don’t worry about him. Your parents are reasonable people. How can you not have any feelings for him if they raise him by their side?”
“It’s good that he can be so innocent. There are only a few years in his childhood. If he missed it, it would be a lifetime of regret.”
“He is so well-behaved and sensible. You just need to remind him more in the future.”
Han Chi glanced at Li Mi.
And nodded slightly.
He didn’t tell Li Mi that he was afraid that He Cheng would become an ignorant and incompetent man, and would keep his eyes on the Marquis’ inheritance that didn’t belong to him, and compete against Ah-Yao.
Greed was the greatest evil among brothers.
Although Sun Xiu, Sun Yi, and Sun Ke may not have mentioned it out loud, their feelings towards Ah-Yao and He Cheng were definitely different.
Looking back at how they arrived, people could see how the sisters had immediately circled Ah-Yao first.
When a child was young, he may be ignorant to the things around him, but as the child got older, they would definitely be jealous and fight for it.
“Your mind will naturally be clearer when you grow older. Studying will make you wiser, and you’ll know things better. Don’t worry.”
Han Chi smiled, “You’re right. I’m worrying too much.”
Especially when he saw He Cheng, Sun Ke, and Ah-Yao playing together…
Han Chi couldn’t help but laugh.
“Brother! Sister-in-law!”
Sun Xiu and Sun Yi came to greet them.
When Ah-Yao noticed his older sisters’ actions, he stood obediently and greeted sweetly, “Brother, Sister-in-law.”
Li Mi was surprised, “Oh, do you still remember me?”
Ah-Yao looked at Sun Xiu and Sun Yi, then he covered his mouth and laughed.
Li Mi understood.
He learned from his two older sisters.
What a smart child.
She patted Ah-Yao’s head affectionately.
Ah-Yao smiled brightly in his tiger costume. It was very cute and festive.
What a rare child..
