Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shu Yutong opened her mouth and said, Can you recognize medicinal herbs?bender
No, I cant, Huangfu Lingyao was taken aback. What kind of question was this? Why would he need to recognize herbs if he was just playing with her?
Shu Yutong stared at him with wide eyes and asked again, Do you have medical skills?
Huangfu Lingyao hesitated before replying weakly, No.
He looked pitifully at his wife, then regained his confidence and said, But Wife does!
He pointed at Liu Shimei and continued, She knows, so its fine. I dont need to know!
Little did he know, Shu Yutong said seriously, That wont do! Theres a saying, Rely on mountains to collapse, rely on water to flow. If you dont have your own abilities, you wont stand firm forever! Only by relying on oneself can one follow the right path in the world!
Huangfu Lingyao was dumbfounded.
Liu Shimei was also stunned and furrowed her brows as she asked, Tongtong, who taught you these words?
The words were indeed correct, and it was well-intentioned to say this to a six-year-old child, but was it kindness or malice?
Shu Yutong obeyed Liu Shimei unquestioningly and answered, Auntie told me.
Liu Shimei sighed and said, What your aunt said makes sense, but youre still young. Dont think too much about it for now. We have our abilities, and in the future, I will protect and guide you. Masters family has many powerful relatives. Each one of them is formidable! Our family members hold their heads high wherever they go. What do we have to fear from mountains collapsing and rivers flowing?
Shu Yutong blinked, feeling that Liu Shimeis words had overturned her previous understanding. So, she looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Huangfu Lingyao had never seen his wife display such a domineering attitude before. He decided to temporarily set aside his wariness towards Xiaoshuitong and said with a smile, Yes, yes, yes, Wife is the best person in the world. Water Bucket, becoming an apprentice to Wife is truly a blessing earned over many lifetimes!
He didnt forget to praise his wife.
Liu Shimei could only smile helplessly. She looked at Huangfu Lingyao and said, Lingyao, my apprentice is also your apprentice, right? Dont you have a gift for her?
Huangfu Lingyao was taken aback.
Why didnt she mention it earlier?!
He might have money, but the Silly Second Prince was penniless. Where could he find a gift on short notice?
He couldnt possibly go outside and use mud to make a little clay figure for Shu Yutong, could he?
But when he lowered his head and saw the little girl looking at him eagerly, a bit fearful yet wanting to get close to him, it was evident that she shared the same trait as his wife: a preference for handsome men!
He had to admit that this look had struck a chord in his heart!
Fine, fine, let his wife share a bit of her favor with this pitiful child. It didnt seem like a bad idea, after all.
I have prepared it for you. Liu Shimei smiled faintly and took out a jade pendant from her sleeve.
It was a complete round jade made up of two jade plaques. Each plaque was engraved with the surnames Liu and Huangfu. Emperor Fu Lingyaos heart trembled when he saw it.
His wife, oh, he loved her so much!
Unfortunately, why wasnt this thing given to him?
Liu Shimei handed the jade pendant to Shu Yutong and said, Consider this a gift from the prince to you. The Liu character represents methe Master. And Huangfu represents himyour future brother-in-law. By giving you this gift now, we are already a family.
Shu Yutong was deeply moved and burst into tears. Thank you, Master!
Huangfu Lingyao felt like crying too, not to feign pity for sympathy but out of genuine emotion!
We are already a family, what a beautiful statement!
Well, he decided, he wouldnt compete for favor with this little brat in the future.
When they had a daughter in the future, he would make a similar jade pendant for her too!
