"Iâll sleep on one side with big brother, big brother next to mom, and Iâll be next to big brother, on the outside, to protect mom and big brother."
Before Lele could speak, Yangyang had already thoughtfully arranged everything.
"Little brother, Iâm the big brother; I should be the one protecting you."
"But you donât know martial arts, and you canât fight the bad guys." Yangyang blinked as he spoke.
"Sometimes you donât need to use force to deal with people; you need to use your brain." Lele thought to himself, the incident of the snake on his bed was said to be related to the Prime Ministerâs grandson. Although he wasnât the one who had put it there, the idea was his. So, feeling disgruntled, he had slipped a bag of scorpions into his school bag, which stung his hands so badly that they swelled up for many days and he couldnât write large characters. As a result, his studies suffered a setback and the teacher in the palace even scolded him for it. Tsk tsk, he was more than pleased with this series of events. Let him dare to bully himself.
"What your brother says is right." Yang Chuxia patted her younger sonâs head, "For those ruffians and scoundrels, force is more effective; but for those who appear to be gentlemen on the outside, yet are ruthless and cunning on the inside, you need to use your brain to deal with them. Otherwise, your use of force will not only fail to touch them, but it will also become a tool for them to attack you with."
"Is that so?" Yangyang supported his head with one hand and touched his chin with the other, pondered for a long while, and then suddenly said, "Then Iâll use force, and big brother will use his brain. When we encounter bad guys in the future, weâll deal with them together. Itâs called âthe combined force of twin swordsâ!"
Yang Chuxia chuckled, "Thatâs right, the two brothers should help and support each other. You two will sleep inside, and mom will sleep outside. With your little arms and legs, itâs better for mom to protect you."
"Mom, is dad doing okay?" As soon as she lay down, Lele hugged her arm and asked.
"Heâs doing well." Yang Chuxia stroked his head, "Youâll see him in a few days."
"Hmm, and how are grandma and the others? What about uncle and his family?"
Perhaps too excited to see his mother, Lele was not sleepy at all, pulling Yang Chuxia this way and that, asking about everyone in the family, until Yang Chuxia answered each question, only then he gradually fell asleep.
The next day, as soon as Yang Chuxia opened her eyes, she met two pairs of large, rolling eyes. Yangyangâs hand was still suspended in the air.
"You little rascal, were you thinking of pinching momâs nose, hmm?"
Yangyang quickly pulled back his hand, laughing awkwardly, "No, definitely not, mom saw it wrong."
"Mom, letâs go out to play today? Weâll go together with big brother. Big brother wants to go play too." Afraid Yang Chuxia would disagree, Yangyang roped in Lele as well.
"Itâs you who wants to go, right?"
"Mom, I want to go too," Lele chimed in, "I remember when I first came to the Capital City, someone from the palace took me out to play, but I havenât been out much since then."
"Is that so?" Yang Chuxia thought about it. In truth, she didnât really want to go out, mainly because there were too many nobles in the Capital City, and it was easy to run into trouble. Such as being at a disadvantage for people with no status like them. However, looking into her sonsâ expectant eyes, she couldnât bear to refuse. "All right then, weâll go out later, can we get up now?"
"Oh, time to get up!"
Having achieved his goal, Yangyang quickly pecked Lele on the face, followed by a kiss on Yang Chuxiaâs face, and then hurriedly threw off the covers to get dressed,
Lele, touching the saliva on his face, frowned, "Mom, why hasnât he stopped his habit of kissing people all the time?"
Yang Chuxia saw his troubled face and chuckled, "Itâs not going to change, just let him be."
