The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler

2558 Side Story 62: Since They’re Brothers, I Can’t Show Favoritism

Chu Liuyue felt a little tired recently.

She coaxed the children during the day and Rong Xiu at night. Although she didn’t really need to take the initiative to do anything about these two things… She still sharply sensed that Rong Xiaoxun and Rong Xiaoyan were born to be on bad terms with their father.

Xiao Ba sat beside the crib and gazed at the two little ones sleeping quietly, loving them more than ever. She couldn’t help but lower her voice and softly say, “Master, look at how obedient the two of them are!”

They were soft balls with a milky fragrance. She was very careful when she touched them.

Seeing her infatuated and elated look, Chu Liuyue held it in and didn’t expose the reason why the two of them slept so soundly in the day was mainly that they caused a huge commotion at night.

“I heard that the Emperor has been coaxing them at night recently?” asked Xiao Ba curiously.

Chu Liuyue nodded hesitantly. If that can be considered coaxing…

Xiao Ba clicked her tongue. It’s really hard to imagine that someone like the Emperor has such patience.

Chu Liuyue silently swallowed her remaining words when she saw Xiao Ba’s expression that said, “The Emperor and the two young masters are really kind and filial. How enviable.”

Suddenly, Rong Xiaoxun opened his eyes.

Xiao Ba hurriedly covered her mouth and widened her eyes slightly. Ah! Could it be that she spoke too loudly and woke him up? He won’t cry, right?

Just as she was nervously thinking, Rong Xiaoxun opened his eyes and stared at her calmly for a while. Not only did he not cry, but he even clenched his fists and laughed.

Even though he was still very young, one could tell that his eyes were extremely similar to Chu Liuyue’s.

His eyes were pitch-black, bright, and clean, like a crystal that flickered with a dazzling light. When he smiled, his eyes curved up, and he looked even more likable.

At a glance, he really looked like a small Chu Liuyue.

Xiao Ba’s heart melted when she saw Rong Xiaoxun’s smile. “Wu! How cute!”

Chu Liuyue glanced at Rong Xiaoxun. It seems like… he has never smiled so happily at his own father before, right?

Just as she was thinking, Rong Xiaoyan woke up at the side.

He rubbed his eyes and smelled the familiar fragrance. Then, he opened his arms and leaned toward Chu Liuyue.

Chu Liuyue carried him up.

Rong Xiaoyan also smiled. Even though it was very faint, his eyes were filled with dependence and happiness.

His eyes and expression were more like Rong Xiu’s, and they faintly revealed a few hints of cold elegance.

Xiao Ba was very emotional.

In the past, she had always heard that children were very noisy, especially these two, who had inherited the bloodline of the Emperor and Goddess Yue. They were born to be much stronger than ordinary people.

Originally, she thought that it would be very torturous for these two brothers to be together, but this wasn’t the case. These two were extremely obedient in front of Chu Liuyue!

What kind of deities are they!?

Rong Xiaoxun was dazed for a moment when he saw that his brother was already in his mother’s arms, and he babbled as he asked for a hug.

Xiao Ba reached out and picked him up.

Rong Xiaoxun had a lively personality and was very close to everyone, so he could basically be hugged by anyone. But today, he seemed to have realized that he didn’t receive the same treatment as his brother, so he was very insistent.

Even though he was in Xiao Ba’s arms, his small head turned toward Chu Liuyue as he watched on with much desire.

Even if he couldn’t speak, that pitiful gaze was enough to explain everything.

Chu Liuyue had always upheld the philosophy of being impartial and taking a fair approach. After thinking for a while, she carried Rong Xiaoyan on her left and stretched out her right hand to take Rong Xiaoxun.

Rong Xiaoxun’s eyes instantly lit up.

But the moment that short arm reached out, Rong Xiaoxun’s small body was picked up by a pair of strong hands. The next moment, he lay in a slightly cold embrace.

He looked up in a daze and saw his own father’s face. Then, he heard his father’s nonchalant accusation. “The two of you are too heavy now. What if your mother gets tired?”

Chu Liuyue was stumped. I don’t think I’m so useless that I’d beb tired from carrying two babies…

“Go back and play by yourself,” said Rong Xiu as he placed Rong Xiaoxun back into the crib. Then, his gaze landed on Rong Xiaoyan, who was still stuck to Chu Liuyue’s arms.

Rong Xiaoyan unwittingly became nervous as he instinctively clenched his fists and tried hard to grab his mother’s clothes. At the same time, he shrunk into Chu Liuyue’s arms.

Seeing him like this, Chu Liuyue immediately patted Rong Xiaoyan lightly and glared at Rong Xiu. “Why are you so fierce?”

Look at these two brothers. They don’t really like to be close to him.

Rong Xiu raised his brows.

He didn’t argue with Chu Liuyue about whether he was fierce or not. He just glanced at Rong Xiaoyan, who had no intention of letting go.

There was one thing about these two kids that wasn’t bad, which was that they were more regular in their work and rest. The time to eat, drink, and poop every day was almost fixed.

So… shouldn’t they go to the side and play by themselves later?

His voice didn’t fluctuate as he said, “I suddenly thought of the two longevity locks. The two of them haven’t worn them much before.”

Once he said this, Rong Xiaoyan instantly froze.

Chu Liuyue said, “They wore it once before, but Xiaoyan didn’t seem to like it very much.”

Rong Xiu smiled, looked at Rong Xiaoyan, and said, “It’s all Father-in-Law’s sincerity. I can’t let him down.”

Chu Liuyue thought for a while and felt that his words made sense.

Although the two small longevity locks were a little exaggerated, they were still very exquisite overall. It had indeed involved a lot of effort.

Besides, the two brothers were both very pretty. Sometimes, they really looked better than a young lady.

She also felt a little regretful that she couldn’t give birth to a daughter. If she put these gifts aside again…

She thought for a while and looked at Rong Xiaoyan. “Xiaoyan, do you want to wear it?”

Rong Xiaoyan still didn’t know how to speak. Hence, he planned to shake his head to reject her.

But before he could move, Rong Xiaoxun suddenly cried out and stared at the spot in front of him with sparkling eyes.

Two longevity locks were swaying gently in front of him.

At this moment, the sun was just right, shining brightly on the small silver locks. The intricate jade embedded on them was even clearer and smoother—they were extremely beautiful.

Even if it was a little exaggerated, it deserved to be praised.

Shangguan You had good taste. Back then, he had spent a lot of effort thinking about this gift, so he naturally could take it out. Of course, the condition was that it wasn’t given to a boy.

However, Rong Xiaoxun still didn’t have this concept. He just purely felt that this thing looked good.

Previously, he only played with it for a while before it disappeared. Now that he saw it again, he was naturally overjoyed.

Without thinking, he reached out and hugged the two longevity locks in his arms, chuckling.

Rong Xiu smiled in satisfaction. “See, he likes it very much. Since they’re brothers, I naturally can’t play favorites.”

Hence, both of them had to wear it.

Rong Xiaoxun was speechless.
