Father, Mother Escaped Again

Chapter 119

After giving birth to her second bun, Xia Yuqing fell into a deep sleep almost immediately. She didn’t have the energy to care how excited the people around her were or how excited she was to weep with joy.

In her sleep, she slowly opened her eyes. A white, round thing reflected in her blurry eyes. Is this a ball in front of her? Wasn’t she giving birth? How could there be a ball in front? Could it be that an egg came out? Egg…egg…

I’ll take it. This aunt didn’t give birth to a nezha*, right? Xia Yuqing was so frightened that she rubbed her eyes hurriedly. Suddenly she felt something was wrong. Hey, why did my hands become shorter and hairy again. Could it be…

Xia Yuqing was shocked by her own conjecture, but she didn’t know that the thunder was still behind.

The billowing white thing that was originally blocking her seemed to have heard the movement behind them. It moved its small round body, turned around, and instantly a pair of black grape-like eyes reflected in Xia Yuqing’s. In her eyes, this thing had even more pure white fur, denser than Xia Yuqing’s. Xia Yuqing wanted to exclaim, “Cute pet, cute pet, this is a really cute pet! Cute, way better than Xiao Bai!”

Before Xia Yuqing could fly up and take the cute pet into her arms, it smashed into her. That little cute thing turned around, it was very excited and shouted: “Brother, mother is awake. Hurry up and come see!”

The milky cute voice was like a dolphin’s baby voice, it was really intoxicating. But what did this indistinguishable little cute creature say? Brother? Mother?

“Coming.” Before Xia Yuqing could figure it out, she heard another voice of a cute but manly boy from not far away.

A gust of wind passed by Xia Yuqing’s eyes. It nearly sent her small body flying. Finally, grasping the grass in front of her to stabilize her figure, she looked intently. Xia Yuqing’s mouth suddenly became O-shaped. In front of her, there was a majestic four-legged creature that looked like a miniature version of the Cao Nima.

Wait a minute, Cao Nima? Xia Yuqing turned her head and looked. As expected, it turned out to be a familiar green grassland. Hey, hey, it wouldn’t be what she thought, could it? Were the two little animals in front of her born from herself and the Cao Nima that represents the Ultra Seme Lord? !

“Mother, you are awake.” The elder brother who followed, looked down at Xia Yuqing, who was shrinking into a ball on the ground trying to reduce her sense of existence. It spoke like an adult. Unexpectedly, not receiving Xia Yuqing’s reply, it couldn’t help but be suspicious.

“Impossible, impossible, this elder brother is bigger than me, how could I be able to give birth to it? It doesn’t make sense, oooooo…” Xia Yuqing muttered to herself for a while before she stuck her head out of her little fluffy body. She reluctantly asked, “What kind of creatures are you two?”

The two looked at each other. The soft little cute creature ran two steps quickly, then like a ball, it rolled to Xia Yuqing’s side: “Mother, what’s the matter with you? Didn’t Daddy say that I am a rare Cao Nizhu*.”

* grass mud pig

“A Pig?!” No wonder it’s so velvety. Wait, that’s not right, how did a Cao Nima and a Cao Nitu give birth to a Cao Nizhu? This genetic mutation is too outrageous! Has science been eaten by you as pig feed? !

“What about you?” Xia Yuqing turned her head to look at the elder brother on the side with an embarrassing expression. The kid looked very much like the Cao Nima from the beginning. It raised its forefoot and head, then arrogantly stated: “I am a Cao Niluo*.”

* mule

“Pu–” Xia Yuqing’s small body somersaulted back, then she laid stiff on the ground. Mule, mule, mule… shouldn’t mules be the product of horses and donkeys? She is clearly a rabbit, a rabbit!

Xia Yuqing raised her head to the sky silently with two noodles as tears. Could this be the continuation of the legendary nightmare? At this moment, she only felt 10,000 Cao Nima* in her mind whizzing past, directly crushing the people in the Gobi desert.

* grass mud horse but also means f word

Huh? Wait, Cao Nima whizzing past? Xia Yuqing suddenly felt a habitual cold aura behind her. Her body froze. She looked back and faced a dashing figure who was familiar to the extreme.

“My dear, you are awake.”

“…” My dear, your sister. Who is your dear? !

“Daddy.” One big, one small, when they saw the visitor, they immediately became excited and jumped towards the visitor.

“Hey, you two go over there to play. Daddy will come and find you in a while.”

“Hey, why? We want to be with our mother.” The two replied unhappily.

Xia Yuqing clearly saw the four eyes turn to her side, with obvious calculations. Afterwards Xia Yuqing saw him say something in the ears of the two, and both their eyes lit up. They even looked towards her, nodded solemnly, and walked away holding hands.

Xia Yuqing looked at the backs of the two distant figures only to realize that something was wrong. Before she could speak out to keep the two of them, she was already crushed to the ground by a certain animal.

“…” Why is this scene so familiar!? Xia Yuqing looked at the bright sky as she thought.

“Are you hungry again?” Xia Yuqing asked to break the silence.

The creature pressing on her was stunned, and said with a faint smile: “My dear, you are so cute.”

“…” You are cute, your whole family is cute!

He seemed to see the resentment in Xia Yuqing’s heart, so even the voice above her head brought out a joyful tone to it: “My dear, do you know what I said to Da Bai and Xiao Bai just now?”

Da Bai? Xiao Bai? Xia Yuqing was confused. What vulgar names. Also how is that Cao Niluo white? Its entire body was black like coal, where was it white? !

“What?” Intuition told Xia Yuqing that this answer was definitely not what she wanted to hear.

“It’s nothing, I just told them that I will continue to make more little ones with my dear, and increase our rare Cao Ni clan. So I told them to go to the side to play for a while, maybe there will be younger brothers and sisters in a short while. But, dear, don’t worry, my request is only for seven or eight. Since there are two, just five or six more will do. Just work harder for two or three times, my dear.”

“…” F**k, do you think getting double yolk eggs is that easy? Do you think children are just picked up like that? Also getting younger brothers and sisters in a while? Do you think you could just induce labour like that?

Why can’t I escape the tragedy of having a child even when I fall asleep? My heart is so tired, I feel like I can’t love anymore, ohhhhh… the earth is so terrible, take me back!

“Since my dear isn’t speaking, I will treat it as if you agreed. Let’s do business.”

“!” Don’t distort other people’s meanings without authorization. Xia Yuqing was stunned as she watched the beast gradually approach herself. Closing her eyes, she finally couldn’t help shouting: “Yamete!”

“Don’t…” Xia Yuqing screamed in surprise in Xiefang Hall. Opening her eyes, her eyes were full of panic of the future that could not fade away.

Feng Tingye who was guarding the side rushed over and held her hand: “Ai Fei, you are awake. Lu Rui, call the imperial doctor quickly. Ai Fei is awake.”

“Niang Niang is awake, Niang Niang is awake!” When the people outside heard Feng Tingye’s yelling, they started clamoring over each other.

“Ai Fei, what’s the matter? Where does it hurt?” Feng Tingye looked at Xia Yuqing’s tearful eyes and couldn’t help feeling a little nervous.

“Your Majesty….”

“Yes?”

“I don’t want to have babies anymore. It hurts to have a baby.”

“Well, you don’t have to give birth, you won’t have to any more.”

“Huh?” She didn’t expect Feng Tingye to agree so easily. She couldn’t believe it.

Feng Tingye looked at her expression and couldn’t help but smile. He stretched out his hand and touched her slightly pale face: “You gave birth to a pair of children for me, that’s enough. Ye Kingdom already has a heir in the future. If you give too many births, the tragedy of sibling rivalry will inevitably happen. This is not what you and I would like to see.”

Actually, this is just Feng Tingye’s excuse. He still liked children very much, but that kind of staying outside of the delivery room had him frightened. He felt as if he would lose the person in front of him at any second. He never wanted to try it again. They already had two children, it was enough. Moreover, this girl was so afraid of pain. Just the smallest scratch would have her aching for days, he couldn’t bear her suffering through that pain again.

“A pair of children?” Xia Yuqing was distracted by Feng Tingye’s words. When she gave birth to her second child, she was exhausted and fell asleep before she could even look at the child. She didn’t know whether it was a male or a female. The chubby pig in the dream just now was full of hair, but she couldn’t tell whether it was male or female.

“En, the second child is a girl, a girl who looks like Ai Fei.”

“Really! Where is the child?” Xia Yuqing’s eyes lit up. She looked around, but she didn’t see the two children so she asked anxiously.

“Don’t worry, don’t worry, royal mother and Xu Lao are holding them. They are in the side hall. Lu Rui has already gone out to call for the people. You will see them later.” Feng Tingye stopped Xia Yuqing who wanted to get up and said with a light smile. His usual vigorous heroic attitude towards his officials has disappeared, instead, he had the look of a young father.

“Your Majesty, the doctor is here.” Lu Rui’s voice came from outside, interrupting the conversation between the two.

“Come in.”

The old doctor came in, bowed to the two, and stepped forward to check Xia Yuqing’s body: “Don’t worry, Niang Niang is just a little weak after giving birth. So she can’t get out of bed these few days, she must stay in bed to properly rest. She should take good care of the postpartum. Chen will discuss with Lu Rui on how to nourish Niang Niang.”

A word from the old doctor destined Xia Yuqing’s life in being fed like a pig.

“Qing Er woke up? Let royal mother see, where else does it feel uncomfortable?” Once the old doctor had spoken, Zhang Sunshi and Xu Lao rushed over.

“Royal Mother, where’s the child?” Xia Yuqing asked excitedly when she saw them coming over.

“Don’t worry, don’t worry, the child is here.” Zhang Sunshi followed Xu Lao and held the two children in front of Xia Yuqing. Xia Yuqing hurriedly looked over.

“Umm, it’s so ugly…” Inside the swaddling clothes, two sleeping little buns were wrinkled into a ball with bright red faces, like two little monkeys. They were not as cute as Xia Yuqing imagined. Xia Yuqing was disappointed when she saw it. The few people on the side could not help but laugh.

“Qing Er don’t be like this. Also don’t look at the children like this, they can understand. Children appear like this when they are just born, just wait for them to grow up. Ai Jia can see that Ai Jia’s grandson and Ting’er were the exact same when they were just born. Look, isn’t Ting Er fine now? I think this little princess is the same as Qing Er when she was a child. Children grow up fast. They have a different face for each day, so after a few days, you won’t find them ugly.”

“Oh.” Xia Yuqing nodded. She still could not quite believe that these two thin leather looking monkeys can all of a sudden transform into a monkey king. However, even so, these two were meat that fell from her body. Perhaps they were not as cute as she imagined, but Xia Yuqing still felt her heart softened just by looking at them.

“Which is the elder brother and which is the younger sister?” Xia Yuqing stretched out her hand to draw the two children to her side, but couldn’t see the difference between the two children.

“The bigger one on the left is the older brother. The smaller one on the right is the younger sister.”

“Oh.” Xia Yuqing nodded, looking down at the two children’s expressions. Feng Tingye couldn’t bear it. He stretched out his hand and touched her long hair, there was a satisfied smile in his eyes.

“Cough cough cough…” Just when the family of four was happy, a soft cough suddenly came from the side, breaking the warmth between the few people.

“Xu Ge, what’s the matter with you? Do you have a cold… Uh, no, a chill?” Xia Yuqing met Xu Lao’s angry face as soon as she raised her head, and couldn’t help but feel a little puzzled.

“Ai Fei, Xu Lao is angry.” Feng Tingye glanced at Xu Lao’s face and smiled.

“Angry? Why are you angry? I gave birth to two babies, why is Xu Lao unhappy?”

“Ai Fei gave birth to two babies. Of course Xu Lao is happy. What Xu Lao is unhappy about is that when Ai Fei gave birth to a baby yesterday, Xu Lao could not see the two babies at first sight.”

Xia Yuqing suddenly realized something and turned her head to look at Xu Lao, but saw Xu Lao standing awkwardly and arrogantly to the side. He snorted coldly: “Everyone knew, yet I was the only one in the dark. If I did not hear the people outside talking about my little apprentice giving birth to a little grandson, I wouldn’t even know to come! It is…too annoying!”

“Uh…” Xia Yuqing watched her master get flushed with anger. Seeing the look of tears, she begged for help from Feng Tingye

Feng Tingye touched her head and turned to apologize: “I was really in a hurry yesterday. I only thought about Ai Fei giving birth in my heart, I couldn’t think of anything else. It was also the first time that the girls in the palace saw this. Naturally, I was a little overwhelmed during the battle. In addition, Xu Lao lives outside the palace. In a hurry, I would inevitably miss some things. I hope that Xu Lao will forgive Zhen.”

Zhang Sunshi also hurriedly persuaded: “Yes, Xu Lao. Ai Jia was here yesterday. It was too chaotic, let alone for these juniors who have only seen this kind of battle for the first time. Qing Er has just given birth to two children and is weak. Today is also a day of great joy, so don’t make it hard for this young couple. Even if you don’t want to give face to the two, you should give face to your lovely little disciple’s grandchildren?”

With Zhang Sunshi’s words, Xu Lao did not provoke people anymore. He came out of the situation, but he also suggested a small request of moving back to the small courtyard in the palace. Supposedly, he wanted to cultivate affection with his two little grandchildren.

Feng Tingye couldn’t find a reason not to agree with him, so he even allowed someone to go and help Xu Lao clear out the yard. After resolving the old naughty boy situation, Xia Yuqing felt a little tired. Feng Tingye gave Zhang Sunshi a wink. When she saw this, Zhang Sunshi dragged out Xu Lao who was reluctant to leave the two little grandchildren behind.

“Tired?” Feng Tingye asked in a low voice, looking at Xia Yuqing and the two children nestled in her arms.

“Kind of.” Xia Yuqing didn’t know what was wrong with her. Not long after she woke up, her eyelids started fighting to close again.

“Go to sleep, Zhen will accompany you.”

“En.” A soft reply. When Feng Tingye looked again, Xia Yuqing, who was holding the two children, fell asleep again.

Feng Tingye stared at the sleeping faces of Xia Yuqing and the two children for a while, before turning over to lie down on the other side of the bed. He stretched out his hand to embrace them in his arms, and silently closed his eyes.

The breeze slipped into the room from the slightly open door and passed over the sleeping family, warming the whole inner hall.

Following the crack of the door, Cui Er saw the warm scene of the two and the two children embracing. The corners of her lips were slightly hooked upwards, then the slightly open door was closed silently.

“Cui Er Jiejie, what are you doing at the door of Niang Niang’s room? Is Niang Niang awake?” Lu Rui had just discussed with the imperial doctor how to nourish Xia Yuqing. When she turned her head, she saw Cui Er standing at the door of the side hall.

“Hush, Niang Niang and the emperor are asleep, don’t wake them up. You heat up the porridge in the small kitchen. When Niang Niang and the emperor wakes up, you can bring them in. The two of them have not eaten since yesterday. They should be hungry when they wake up.”

“En, the emperor stayed with Niang Niang for the entire night, he should be tired. I’ll go and prepare food for them.”

Lu Rui heard the imperial doctor saying that Xia Yuqing was fine and could breathe a sigh of relief. Now that she heard Cui Er’s reminder, she went straight to the small kitchen with more vigour.

“Xiao Yuan.” As soon as Lu Rui left, Cui Er moved her gaze to Li Yuan, who was on the side. Her face had not been so good, and she softly advised, “It’s okay, the mother and the children are all well. You don’t need to blame yourself, Niang Niang will also not blame you.”

“En, I know, but if it weren’t for me, Qing Jiejie’s children wouldn’t have come out so early, causing Qing Jiejie to suffer so much.”

Cui Er patted her shoulder: “The imperial doctor said that twins are often born prematurely. Even if it is not now, it would have been soon. Furthermore, giving birth to a child is always painful. Niang Niang would have faced it sooner or later, it has nothing to do with you. There is one thing though, what are you going to do with you and the Grand Tutor?”

“What to do? Haha…” It’s okay if Cui Er didn’t mention it, but now Li Yuan hated it when she mentioned Yan Ran. Her teeth were itchy. She clasped her hands together and made a terrifying noise, “It’s okay to bully me, but now it caused my Qing Jiejie to give birth prematurely. I will settle this account with him!”

Seeing a few small flames bursting out of Li Yuan’s eyes, Cui Er’s lips curled up slightly. Knowing that her goal had been achieved and the account of the premature birth of the empress was deducted on Grand Tutor’s head, the Grand Tutor’s future…

Hehehe, who told him to cause their Niang Niang to slip on her feet and make them tired for so long…

Cui Er raised her head and glanced at the sky outside and sighed, the weather today is so good! So nice!

As Zhang Sunshi said, in the following days, the two little monkeys that initially disappointed Xia Yuqing really had a face for each day. In a short period of half a month, the fetal red on their face gradually faded and was replaced by a soft skin that can be broken by a gentle blow of one’s breath. It was smooth and soft, which made Xia Yuqing and the others love it.

Especially under the meticulous care of Lu Rui and the other girls, as well as the five or six meals a day of feeding by the nanny, it was way heavier than when it was just born. The two babies were placed together. They look like a pair of lovely young children. This made all the palace girls in the Xiefang Hall and even the imperial palace have red hearts one by one. When they saw the two babies, they wanted to just go up and touch them.

“Look, look, the little princess turned over. She is so chubby, how cute! Look, she put her finger in her mouth!”

“Look at the other side, the little prince went to hold the little princess’s hand, and hugged her. Nooo, I’m out of breath, how can it be so cute! Ahh! “

As soon as Xia Yuqing walked in, she saw a few palace ladies sitting around the small stroller. They looked so excited and intoxicated that they didn’t even notice when she came in.

“Niang Niang is here, Niang Niang…” One of the palace ladies saw Xia Yuqing as soon as she turned her head. She was taken aback and hurriedly pulled the people nearby to greet her.

“You can rise, where’s the children?”

“Here, here.” Seeing that Xia Yuqing didn’t seem to blame them, the palace ladies sighed in relief. They hurriedly got up and surrounded the baby’s cradle again.

Xia Yuqing walked forward with a smile. After lying in bed for more than ten days, she was finally allowed to move around freely. It was too stifling before!

As soon as Xia Yuqing walked to the small cradle, the sleeping little princess seemed to have sensed something. She yawned with her small mouth, her small eyes opened and closed. After several times, she stretched out and rubbed her eyes with her chubby little hands, and gradually became sober.

“The little princess rubbed her eyes, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, she looks cute!” This action once again caused the screams of a group of people nearby.

“Ah…” The little princess seemed to be a little frightened by the cry from the side. Her body trembled, her mouth slumped, and tears began to pool around in those phoenix eyes similar to Feng Tingye’s. It was about to release a flood of tears. Then a hand suddenly reached out to her and patted her comfortably: “Dun Dun, be good, don’t cry.”

Dun Dun is the nickname Xia Yuqing gave to her daughter. Their official names were decided by Zhang Sunshi and Xu Lao. The eldest son was Feng Suixue and the youngest daughter was Feng Yishuang. The nickname was formed by the two parents. The eldest son was named Dudu, which was chosen by Feng Tingye. At first, Xia Yuqing actually wanted to call him Feifei*, because the eldest son was a lot bigger than the younger daughter. But this name was finally rejected by Feng Tingye ruthlessly, on the grounds that it would easily cause indelible trauma to the elder son in the future.

* This means fat

Xia Yuqing sneered at this. In her eyes, Dudu and Feifei weren’t much different. It was obviously the Ultra Seme Lord forcing his own ideas upon others! And the name of the little daughter Dun Dun was because Xia Yuqing will naturally think of the fluffy Cao Nizhu in the dream when she sees her cute little daughter, so the name Dun Dun appeared naturally! Of course, no matter whether it is Dudu or Dun Dun, these two names in the near future, after the two children are sensible and understand the meaning of these two words, will cause them to be disgusted and regard them as a lifelong shame. Of course… this is another story.

At this moment, hearing Xia Yuqing’s call, the little princess was stunned. Following the hand, she looked up, facing her mother’s face, she immediately burst into laughter. She kicked her short legs, “Ah Huh!” Then, she stretched out her short hands towards Xia Yuqing, a gesture of wanting a hug.

“Ahhh, the little princess reached out to Niang Niang and Niang Niang picked up the little princess. This picture…Ah, no more, let me calm down!”

Xia Yuqing carefully hugged the little princess in her arms following Cui Er’s instructions, smelling the milk scent on the little princess. Looking at the cute little princess’s face, she couldn’t help but nibble on it. The drool mark caused the little princess to giggle and start laughing.

“Awwww, the little princess smiled. When she laughs, she’s even more cute! If I am able to hold her again and she laughs, I would die happy……”

“Yes, yes, how can the princess be so cute!”

Xia Yuqing was quite proud of the screaming shouts of the people nearby. Hahaha, my baby is so cute! How long did it take to capture the hearts of so many people in this palace? This is awesome!

The shouts on the side seemed to disturb the other bun who was still sleeping in the cradle. The bun kicked the little quilt on his body uncomfortably, and opened his eyes slowly. Like his sister, he yawned. After that, he faced Xia Yuqing ‘s smiling face: “Baby, you’re awake.”

That smile coincided with the smile of an old witch who abducted Little Red Riding Hood, so it caused the little bun’s pair of eyes that was inherited from the Ultra Seme Lord to sink, and in the next second…

“Waaaa…” Ye Kingdom’s first prince, the future prince and emperor, right when he opened his mouth, began to howl.

“…” Xia Yuqing’s outstretched hand paused in the air.

“…” The court ladies on the side were stunned.

Lu Rui, who heard the child’s cry, hurriedly left the job in her hand and rushed in to hug the little prince three feet away from Xia Yuqing. As soon as the little prince couldn’t see Xia Yuqing, he immediately stopped crying and curled into Lu Rui’s arms.

Lu Rui was relieved and looked at Xia Yuqing: “Niang Niang, the little prince is afraid of you, you should know why. Don’t get too close to him, otherwise he will cry when he sees you.”

“…” Xia Yuqing petrified for a moment, holding in her little tears, she rushed into the arms of Cui Er on the side, crying, “Cui Er, Lu Rui doesn’t love me anymore. She doesn’t love me anymore, she actually yelled at me! Ooooooo…”

“…”

Cui Er sighed. She patted Xia Yuqing’s shoulder, and whispered in a low voice: “Nu Bi thinks that Lu Rui’s words are not unreasonable. You should stay away from the little prince.”

Otherwise, the little prince will be led astray.

Speaking of which, why would the little prince avoid Xia Yuqing in such a way? Well it all started that dark and windy night. Xia Yuqing was so bored that day in Xiefang Palace, she began to poison the little baby around her. Bearing the brunt of this was the eldest son Feng Suixue. The entire night, his own mother stated that men are hegemons. After he grew up, even if she couldn’t break his father and bend him, he must achieve love between father and son and find a good husband. It didn’t matter if he was the seme or the uke, the most important thing was to fulfill mother’s wish to make the world all united.

When Lu Rui and the others found out their Royal Highness had been poisoned by Xia Yuqing, since that night after seeing Xia Yuqing, it was like seeing a ghost, he would cry immediately.

Xia Yuqing was shocked by Cui Er’s words and started to draw circles on the ground with her finger. In the future, her great career can only be succeeded by the second baby. Sigh…

“Dun Dun, you have to be good, don’t learn from your brother. You have to follow in the footsteps of your mother, be firm. One day we will let the world be unified, and accomplish our unfinished career for the generations~”

“…” Those girls who followed Xia Yuqing suddenly had a question. Should they isolate the little princess from Niang Niang? If this continues, the little princess will definitely be led astray!

“Ahem, Niang Niang, the Grand Tutor is requesting a visit.” In order to prevent Xia Yuqing from continuing to harm their innocent little princess, Cui Er coughed and interrupted Xia Yuqing’s thoughts.

“Huh, the Gorgeous Tutor is here?”

Sure enough, Xia Yuqing’s attention was taken away all of a sudden after hearing this. Since the last incident, Yan Ran has been hiding from Xia Yuqing. Today, for unknown reasons, he seemed to… have walked into the trap by himself? !
