Chapter 1794: How Clever This Child Was
Yun Bixue pulled Hao’er’s hand and sat him down at the table, sighing. “Hao’er is truly sensible. You’ll surely make an awesome older brother.”
Hao’er nodded vigorously. “Auntie, I will be an awesome older brother.”
“Of course.”
“Auntie, when is Younger Sister going to come out?”
“Very soon. In about ten days or so, you’ll be able to see your younger brother.”
When Hao’er heard this, he beamed.
Seeing Hao’er smile this way, Yun Bixue was charmed. What an obedient child. He’s only five, and his smile is already so charming. When he grows up, he will surely captivate the hearts of many young ladies.
This child’s biological father was Majesty Kang, Xiajun Yanting.
Xiajun Yanting had enchanting looks and exuded a feminine gentleness. Hao’er’s mother was probably a great beauty as well. Hence, Hao’er would definitely grow up to be a pretty boy.
“Auntie, Auntie?”
It was only then that Yun Bixue realized she had been daydreaming. She smiled and said, “Hao’er is very good looking. So good looking that Auntie got into a daze looking at you. Do your little friends at school like you very much?”
Hao’er touched his head and shook it.
Yun Bixue thought that since he’s still young, he naturally wouldn’t be able to understand adult matters. Hence, she asked him about what’s going on at school.
“Auntie, I didn’t attend school these few days.”
Yun Bixue was confused. “Why not? Are you being bullied?”
Yun Bixue’s face darkened. If there really were people bullying Hao’er, she would talk to the school’s management and teachers in the dark.
Hao’er shook his head. “No. It’s just that Grandfather is in poor health and I’ve been keeping him company in the palace.”
Yun Bixue sighed. “Does Hao’er like Grandfather?”
Hao’er nodded.
Gazing at Hao’er’s serious manner, Yun Bixue hesitated before asking slowly, “Would Hao’er like to be like Grandfather?”
The intelligent Hao’er knew what she was asking, “Auntie, are you asking if I wish to be the emperor? To be in Grandfather’s position?”
Yun Bixue was surprised at how clever this child was. She didn’t even ask, so how did he know?
Yun Bixue looked deeply at Hao’er and realized that this child was not only sensible, but also knew a lot. She shouldn’t treat him like a child.
Seeing the solemn countenance on Yun Bixue’s face, Hao’er stroked her brows with his little hand and said, “Auntie, don’t worry. Hao’er would like to be like Grandfather.”
A glint appeared in Yun Bixue’s eyes as she grabbed Hao’er’s little hand. “Hao’er, you know what being like Grandfather implies?”
“Father has spoken to me before, so I know. I will work hard to make Country A powerful in the future and to let everyone lead happy lives.”
Yun Bixue was speechless to hear Hao’er’s words. He was only five, but he had such thoughts. She didn’t know if she should feel touched or sad.
“Hao’er, it’s going to be hard on you in the future.”
Hao’er shook his head. “When everyone’s happy, I’m happy. I don’t find it hard on me.”
Yun Bixue made up her mind that once Hao’er took over that position, she wouldn’t stand by and watch. Since she secretly had influence in Country A’s economic, political, and military matters, she would use her strength to support and help Hao’er.
Perhaps, this way, the child would endure less hards.h.i.+ps.
After playing with Hao’er for a bit, when evening came and Xie Limo returned, the three of them ate together.
Hao’er respected Xie Limo a lot, addressing him as Uncle constantly. As a result, Xie Limo liked this child very much too.
