Chapter 1537: Chapter 1538 Be Careful at Night...
In Xiao Changyi’s view, even if he spoils the children, there are certain things he won’t indulge them in, such as when it comes to eating; his sons are six and a half, and they definitely don’t need to be fed.
In essence, it’s because he doesn’t want to spoil the children.
An Yiqing saw Xiao Changyi not feeding him, but didn’t mind and happily took the chopsticks and fed himself.
When An Yiqing was full, An Yiyun felt sleepy and rubbed his eyes vigorously, "Mother, I’m sleepy..."
An Yiqing immediately teased An Yiyun, "Fourth brother is always the first to be sleepy every night."
An Yiyun ignored him and kept rubbing his eyes, looking extremely sleepy.
It was already Hai hour, and the four children should be asleep; so Xiao Changyi and An Jing got up and took the four back to Fenghua Palace.
As for the celebration banquet, they had already attended and stayed for quite some time, so leaving at this point wouldn’t cause any objections.
Upon leaving the celebration banquet, at the doorway, palace maids and eunuchs quickly brought the cloaks. The winter nights were especially cold, with a chill that could penetrate the bones.
Xiao Changyi and An Jing first draped the moon-white small cloaks over their four children, then put on their own. An Jing’s cloak was bright red, with fox fur inside, windproof and warm.
Xiao Changyi’s cloak was dark-colored.
When the palace maids and eunuchs offered small, exquisite hand warmers, An Jing intended them for the four children, but the children refused to take them, saying they weren’t cold.
An Jing held the children’s hands, finding them warm, decided not to insist further, and waved gently for the palace maids and eunuchs to respectfully take the hand warmers away.
Lanterns lined both sides of the road, so even though the night was dark, the way back to Fenghua Palace was visible. Everything was rather clear.
As they crossed the threshold and stepped outside, the cold northern wind blew, instantly waking An Yiyun from his sleepy state, leaving no trace of drowsiness.
An Jing held An Yiqing with her left hand and An Yiyun with her right.
Xiao Changyi held Su Yi Jing with his left hand and Su Yixing with his right.
The family of six decided not to sit in the sedan but to walk back to Fenghua Palace. The atmosphere was particularly warm.
Despite the cold weather, the hearts of the six were particularly warm. An Jing and Xiao Changyi occasionally exchanged glances and smiles, making the atmosphere incredibly beautiful.
Jing, Star, and Yun walked obediently, while An Yiqing was being playful, refusing to walk properly, instead bouncing along.
An Jing let An Yiqing happily bounce around without stopping him.
It was Su Yixing who spoke up, "Third brother, if you keep being playful, beware at night... heh heh..."
Su Yixing didn’t finish his words, but An Yiqing’s expression changed, while An Jing and Xiao Changyi were puzzled.
An Yiqing immediately grabbed An Jing with his other hand and urgently asked, "Mother, can I sleep with you and father tonight?"
Although the children were quite big, and it’s best not to sleep with parents, they had not seen the children in a long time, so they planned to sleep with them a few nights. This was something An Jing and Xiao Changyi had already agreed upon.
However, seeing An Yiqing afraid and eager to sleep with them tonight made An Jing curious, so she asked, "What’s wrong? Why do you want to sleep with father and mother like this? You are a big child now, and can’t sleep with father and mother."
The last line was said deliberately by An Jing to tease An Yiqing.
