“Father, you scared Yu Yu!” Yu Yu patted herself, still shaken.
“There are many bugs in the grass,” Feng Xiaohan reminded her.
“I know.”
After being scared by the bugs, Yu Yu no longer dared to wander into the grass.
The father and daughter continued their walk until Yu Yu got tired.
She stopped and opened her little arms.
“Father, hug!”
Feng Xiaohan looked at her for a moment.
“Alright, I’ll reluctantly hug you.” Feng Xiaohan reached out to pick up his daughter and placed her on his lap.
With one hand slowly pushing the wheelchair back to Wangchuan Courtyard.
“What do you want to eat for dinner?” Feng Xiaohan asked.
“I want to eat meat!” Yu Yu said happily.
“Want to eat vegetables? Okay.” Feng Xiaohan deliberately teased his daughter.
“Father, Yu Yu said she wants to eat meat!” Yu Yu thought her father hadn’t heard her clearly.
“Want to eat lotus root? Okay.”
“Father, you heard wrong.”
“What did you say?”
“Ugh, I need to ask Medical Immortal Brother if he has any medicine for your ears.”
Feng Xiaohan: …………
Back at Wangchuan Courtyard.
Feng Xiaohan called for Qing’an to prepare some good meat dishes.
Yu Yu sat on the floor playing with her little clay figure.
“Father, I want to dig some mud.”
“Dig mud for what?” Feng Xiaohan asked, puzzled.
“To make little clay figures!” With Yu Yu around, she naturally wanted to make a figure of her father, and also one of her brother.
“I’ll have someone bring it in.”
“Thank you, Father.”
Feng Xiaohan had someone bring in some clay, watching his daughter sit on the floor.
“Maybe you could sit on a stool to play; the floor is quite dirty.”
“It’s not dirty.” Yu Yu stretched out her little hand to touch the floor; her hand didn’t turn black.
Feng Xiaohan sighed.
Little messy one.
The servants brought in the clay.
Yu Yu began to mold her clay figure.
Father is tall, and Yu Yu wants to grow that tall someday.
Father’s hands are long and big, much bigger than Yu Yu’s.
Father’s face isn’t as round as Yu Yu’s; Father needs to eat more so that he can gain weight and become as cute as Yu Yu.
Feng Xiaohan also molded a figure, her body round and without a waist, resembling a white dumpling. Her little face was also chubby, and she had big eyes.
Her little hands were soft and plump, and she liked to wear skirts, have her hair in a bun, and wear pretty hairpins.
After finishing the figures, Feng Xiaohan took a look; he indeed wasn’t skilled at detailed work.
Yu Yu was still focused on her molding, and Feng Xiaohan stole a glance.
How’s she doing?
Is she molding him?
After a while, Yu Yu finally finished and eagerly showed her father.
“Father, does it look like you?”
Feng Xiaohan looked at the abstract figure that resembled him.
Hmm…
He confirmed that they were indeed father and daughter.
“Take a look yourself and see if it looks like me.” Feng Xiaohan placed the clay figure next to his face, letting his daughter answer the question.
Look, you’ve distorted your father’s face.
And his hands—he’s not a long-armed ape.
Yu Yu looked up and touched her chubby little chin.
“It looks like!” Yu Yu nodded confidently.
Feng Xiaohan covered his face; he should consider finding a physician to check his daughter’s eyes.
“Father, let me see the one you made!” Yu Yu wanted to see her father’s creation.
Feng Xiaohan handed his molded figure to Yu Yu.
Yu Yu stared at the clay figure her father made.
Her brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
“Father, do you have another child?” Yu Yu looked like she was about to cry, thinking that her father had made another child, not her.
“Father doesn’t want Yu Yu anymore.”
Feng Xiaohan looked shocked at his daughter, whose eyes were turning red.
What just happened?
What just happened a moment ago?
“Don’t cry yet; first, tell me what’s wrong.”
“Father, why didn’t you make it look like Yu Yu?” Yu Yu looked at the little clay figure, her eyes filled with grievance.
“This is you,” Feng Xiaohan said firmly.
Yu Yu didn’t believe it and looked again at the little clay figure.
This is Yu Yu?
“But Yu Yu isn’t that ugly!” Yu Yu looked at the little figure with a wronged expression.
“Hmm… this is a technique for molding clay figures, very popular.” Feng Xiaohan explained seriously.
“This method is meant to showcase another form of you, so it’s not just a single expression.”
“And this method of molding, it’s about the essence, not just the surface.”
Yu Yu was taken aback by her father’s words.
Although she didn’t fully understand what he was saying, it sounded profound.
Father is so impressive.
Yu Yu immediately looked at her father with admiration.
“Father is really amazing.”
“Of course.” Feng Xiaohan accepted his daughter’s praise without blushing or skipping a beat.
“Your Highness, dinner is ready.” Qing’an’s voice came from the flower hall.
“Alright, you may leave.”
“Yes.”
Feng Xiaohan took his daughter to dinner.
Yu Yu looked at the meat with eagerness and quickly sat in her chair.
Feng Xiaohan placed a meatball on her plate.
“Apart from you, I have several other children, who are also your brothers and sisters.”
“The eldest is Wuhen, the second is Wuqing, the third is Wuyou, the fourth is Wuchen, and the fifth is Wujie.”
Feng Xiaohan explained when Yu Yu asked if he had other children.
“Where are my brothers and sisters?” Yu Yu asked curiously.
She hadn’t seen her siblings.
“I originally planned for you to meet your sister today, but your sister has something to attend to unexpectedly.”
“It’s a special situation; once I think of a way, I’ll let you see each other,” Feng Xiaohan explained.
“Okay!” Yu Yu nodded expectantly.
After dinner, the father and daughter continued to mold clay figures.
“Father, what is the eldest brother like?”
“Gentle, with a soft demeanor.”
“And the second brother?”
“Heroic and domineering.”
“What about the third brother?”
“Your third brother is… a bit mischievous.”
“And the sister?”
“Noble and imposing.”
“And the youngest brother?”
“Has an ethereal spirit of a fairy.”
“What about Yu Yu?”
“Like a dumpling.”
“Father!”
After playing for a while, Yu Yu washed up and climbed into bed to sleep.
Hua Hua watched Yu Yu, who was busy playing with her father.
[Yu Yu, don’t forget you have an older brother.]
“But he doesn’t want to see Yu Yu.” Yu Yu didn’t know what to do.
[Yu Yu, I can tell you, your brother is just being stubborn and saying harsh things.]
[He doesn’t really not want to see you. How about you send him some flowers and medicine?] Hua Hua suggested to Yu Yu.
Let’s see how our adorable Yu Yu wins him over.
“Okay.” Yu Yu nodded.
Yu Yu opened her eyes and poked her father.
“Father.”
“What is it?” Feng Xiaohan’s tired voice came through.
“Yu Yu has something to do and will go back first.”
“Okay.” Feng Xiaohan nodded.
“When will you be back?”
“Soon!”
After Yu Yu finished speaking, she disappeared.
Feng Xiaohan sighed; a little over two years old, and she’s busier than he is as the Regent Prince.
Returning to the small town, it was quiet at this hour.
Yu Yu came back to her little bamboo hut and rummaged through to find the medicine that Medical Immortal Brother had given her.
“Found it!” Yu Yu exclaimed as she discovered the medicine.
But there were no flowers, and Sister Wisteria was still asleep.
Yu Yu looked toward her windowsill.
There it was! Yu Yu stepped on a stool and took down the flowers she had been nurturing.
Time to visit her brother!
Yu Yu arrived at Jiang Gu’s room, where her brother was sleeping.
She placed the medicine and flowers on the table and then covered them with a red cloth.
That way, her brother would be able to see them.
After doing all this, Yu Yu returned to her father’s side, tucked herself under the blanket, and went to sleep.
Feng Xiaohan listened to her steady breathing before closing his eyes to sleep again.
The next day, Jiang Gu woke up early and went to court.
He didn’t expect to see the familiar red cloth.
Opening it, he found a pot of colorful flowers.
There were purple, blue, red…
And a bottle of medicine.
She came last night.
Jiang Gu stared at the flowers in a daze, and after a while, he placed them on the windowsill.
