Shocked! The salty concubine was spoiled by the cold prince

Sui Sui's paintings were really framed.

Gu Jiaorong specially cleared out a room as a collection room for Suisui's paintings.

This made Suisui particularly happy, and he studied painting more diligently.

When the first painting was placed in this collection room, Sui Sui took Nian Nian to show it off.

"Brother, look, this is Sui Sui's painting collection room~"

There was a hint of pride in Sui Sui's tone, which was not annoying but cute.

Niannian is a man who dotes on his younger sister, so naturally he wouldn't refute it.

"Sui Sui is awesome, so amazing. I'll prepare a collection room for you in the future."

He was very supportive every year, which greatly pleased the little princess Sui Sui.

Suisui smiled sweetly and looked at Nian Nian with stars in her eyes, looking very expectant.

She never thought her brother would lie to her, so she didn't even ask if it was true.

The little princess who grew up in love has unparalleled self-confidence.

"Okay, now that we've finished looking through the collection room, we should go out. We'll have lunch soon. If Mother can't find it, we'll be worried."

Niannian is a calm brother who knows how to coax his sister and what to do.

Sui Sui was also very obedient and did not insist on staying.

Because she knew that now that the collection room had been tidied, it was hers and would never be taken back. Just like the love her father and mother had given her, it would never fade with time.

"Brother, what delicious food will mother prepare for us today?"

Sui Sui walked up to her brother and stretched out her little hand.

Niannian held her hand consciously and answered her with a smile.

"I don't know either. Sui Sui, guess what delicious food will the Queen Mother prepare?"

He is very good at making Sui Sui happy, and he knows that Sui Sui doesn’t necessarily need to get an answer, he just wants to play with his brother.

So when Sui Sui heard this, he smiled with his eyes curved.

"Sui Sui thinks it must be something delicious, maybe a sweet snack."

Gu Jiaorong rarely gave them snacks during meals because she didn't want to develop such a bad habit of being picky about food, so this answer was obviously incorrect, but Nian Nian did not refute it.

"Who knows, Sui Sui's guess might be right, and today we'll have some sweet love to eat."

Niannian smiled gently and coaxed her sister.

They are obviously twins, but Niannian acts like an older brother very well.

Gu Jiaorong guessed that Nian Nian would accompany Sui Sui to see her collection, so she hadn't urged them. It was normal for children to have a desire to show off and share, and Gu Jiaorong wasn't partial. What Sui Sui had, she wouldn't have lost, and Nian Nian wouldn't be jealous of Sui Sui.

She watched the brother and sister come back hand in hand, and she raised her hand to greet them with a smile.

"Come on, New Year's Eve, we're going to eat."

Suisui did not let go of her brother's hand when she saw the Queen Mother, but pulled him to run towards the Queen Mother.

She ran to her mother and looked around, but couldn't find her father.

"Mother, isn't Father going to have lunch with us today?"

There are times like this, but they are rare, so I never get used to it.

Gu Jiaorong patted Suisui's little head and replied with a smile, "Yes, Father has something to do today and can't have dinner with us."

She didn't hide everything from the children.

It's just that we can't have lunch together, it's not a big deal.

When Sui Sui heard this, she was just a little disappointed, but not sad.

"Well, since Father is very busy, then we won't wait for him."

Sui Sui sighed and said with a mature air, "It's the same even if my brother and I accompany Mother."

Gu Jiaorong bent down and pinched her little face.

"Yes, it's the same as having us accompany our mother year after year. Since your father is so busy, let him do his work. We won't wait for him."

Gu Jiaorong coaxed Sui Sui with a smile on her face.

After the two children accompanied Gu Jiaorong to eat, they went to study separately.

Gu Jiaorong mainly accompanies Sui Sui. It’s not that she doesn’t want to accompany Niannian, but her ability is limited and Niannian really doesn’t need her company.

Pei Xu hired several teachers for Niannian, teaching her all kinds of things. Now Niannian is much more knowledgeable than her.

Although Gu Jiaorong lamented from time to time that it was not easy for children to learn, she also knew that what children learned was useful.

Niannian is very independent and does not need his mother's company. On the contrary, when his mother is around, he feels a little worried and has to divide his attention to take care of her.

Yes, you read that right. Although our child is only 5 years old, we are already very worried.

Gu Jiaorong sat in the rocking chair, looking at Suisui holding the brush, her little face straight and her eyes full of seriousness, and she felt very proud, because this was her daughter.

Although she was not good at music, chess, calligraphy or painting, the children she gave birth to were all excellent.

Once Suisui devotes himself to painting, he no longer cares about what happens in the outside world.

All she wanted in her mind was to learn how to draw quickly so that she could paint a family portrait for her family.

Although she did not understand separation and time, she knew that only after she finished her studies early could she paint a family portrait. She wanted to capture the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, and her brother in the painting so that she could see them whenever she wanted, even if they were not available.

Sui Sui thought optimistically, and when she picked up the brush, a smile appeared on her little face.

What she learned today was still drawing small animals. In fact, drawing small animals is no different from drawing people. Both require capturing their expressions and movements, and then replicating them in the painting.

Unlike freehand brushwork, meticulous painting does not emphasize too much on artistic conception and blank space. Instead, it focuses more on neatness, detail, bright colors and outlines.

Sui Sui naturally also learned freehand painting, but her freehand painting lacked some flavor. Instead, she was more adept at learning detailed painting. Therefore, when her mother suggested painting a family portrait for the whole family, she decided to focus more on detailed painting.

It is getting warmer now, but Suisui can still sit in front of the drawing board without moving, which shows how dedicated this lively child is.

Gu Jiaorong looked at Suisui's drawing board from afar and couldn't help but sigh. Suisui has been learning painting for a year, and the recent period has been her most serious time.

As her mother, she hopes that Suisui will have a bright future, but she also hopes that Suisui will be happy. This is a very contradictory and complicated feeling. Fortunately, Suisui is able to do well on his own, and she doesn't need to worry about it for too long.

Although Gu Jiaorong has not seen Sui Sui grow up yet, she can hardly imagine how outstanding Sui Sui will be when he grows up.

Suisui is different from other girls. She studies poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and painting not in order to marry a good man in the future, but for herself.

Under the education of Gu Jiaorong and Pei Xu, Suisui has deeply understood that she is more important than anything else.

Even if she meets her lover in the future, Sui Sui will not only think about the other person and forget herself.

Such educational results made Gu Jiaorong very satisfied.

Gu Jiaorong had seen people with love-brain syndrome and knew how terrible it was. She didn't want her daughter to become one of them.

Even if you meet someone you truly love, just like when she met Pei Xu, you must remain sober.

But it’s a little too early to say these words to Suisui.

Gu Jiaorong could only look at her proud daughter and digest the situation silently in her heart.

Time passed very quickly for her. In her opinion, Suisui was born not long ago, but in the blink of an eye, Suisui was already 5 years old.

She looked at Sui Sui, and saw that Sui Sui's focused little face became more and more focused, and the corners of her lips curled up.

To be honest, she originally said that she wanted to draw a family portrait just to please Sui Sui, but seeing how serious Sui Sui was and not half-hearted, her expectations became higher and higher.

Perhaps it was because she had nothing to do all day, and she only had two children. Niannian was so independent, and she couldn't get involved in many things, so she paid more attention to Suisui and imagined a lot about Suisui's future.

When she was pregnant, she also thought about whether the baby in her belly was a boy or a girl. If it was a girl, what would she do in the future?

Now Sui Sui told her the answer.

Gu Jiaorong doesn't need to worry at all. Suisui is a good child. She can be independent and take care of herself. Even if she leaves her parents' protection, she will not be bullied.

Pei Xu was worried about what she would do if she didn't learn martial arts and didn't have guards around her?

Maybe this is the case for all parents. Although their children have not grown up yet and have not left their side, they have already thought a lot.

Gu Jiaorong thought of Pei Xu and how busy he had been in the past two days.

Pei Xu was busy more than once; after all, he was the emperor, and all the important matters in the world had to be consulted with him. But Pei Xu rarely failed to come back to have lunch with them, unless he really couldn't make it in time.

Gu Jiaorong was not actually worried about Pei Xu's ability, but the court was unpredictable, and the same was true between countries.

The surrounding small countries have wanted to take action against their country from time to time, but because Pei Xu has a firearms camp, they have never dared to act rashly. This has become a very common thing and should not take up too much of Pei Xu's time.

So, what else is there?

Gu Jiaorong couldn't believe that she didn't care about the court at all.

Everything she knew was told to her by Pei Xu, some insignificant little things.

In addition, if there is an important matter, Pei Xu will discuss it with her when he is undecided.

Things like this that are annoying but not a big deal are usually solved by Pei Xu himself.

Pei Xu didn't want Gu Jiaorong to spend too much time and energy, so as not to tire her out.

Gu Jiaorong reached out and brought the teacup to her lips, tasting the freshly brewed black tea, and squinted her eyes in satisfaction.

Forget it, since Pei Xu didn’t tell her, it must be something he can handle.

She still prefers to be a lazy person and not care about anything.

Although now, she is not a complete loser.

Thinking this way, Gu Jiaorong put all the things behind her and focused on watching Suisui practice painting.

Suisui didn't move his little body until he finished a painting.

She did not go to Gu Jiaorong immediately, but showed her painting to the teacher and listened carefully to the teacher's comments to understand what shortcomings there were.

After all, she has only been learning to paint for a few years. No matter how hard she works or how talented she is, it is impossible for her paintings to be perfect. Naturally, they need to be corrected. Mistakes that are not corrected will always be mistakes.

Sui Sui certainly understands this truth, so he has always been humble and never complains even when criticized.

Gu Jiaorong felt that Suisui did a great job in this regard.

If Sui Sui does not allow others to point out her mistakes because of her status, then she will always be living in praise and naturally will not be able to hear the truth.

Praise is certainly nice to hear, but if it is not sincere, it will become boring after hearing it too much.

Sui Sui is still young, so naturally she can't feel this, but as an adult and a mother, Gu Jiaorong can't let her child develop like this. She hopes that the child can grow freely, but that doesn't mean she will watch the child grow crooked.

Gu Jiaorong and Pei Xu spent a lot of energy on educating their children.

Deep down, they all hope that their children can grow up healthy and happy, rather than ignoring them and letting them grow up to be whatever they want.

Even though they were born into the royal family and possessed supreme power, they could not abuse their power, otherwise they would be retaliated against sooner or later.

While there are some objective reasons for the change of dynasties in history, it is hard to deny that there are no subjective reasons. If the rulers act improperly, the only way out is destruction.

As a modern person, Gu Jiaorong has studied history and of course knows that this is not something that can be intervened by humans. Therefore, she did not think of making any reminders, but just let it go. She would only express her opinions when Pei Xu discussed things with her.

And she also believed that, at least in the hands of Pei Xu and Niannian, the dynasty would not collapse.

As for what will happen in the future, it is not something she, as an ancestor, can decide.

She is very open-minded. No one is immortal, and no dynasty will not perish. This is the development of history.

Now, she only needs to take care of her two children.

"Mother, look here! The teacher praised me. Although this painting has some flaws, it's improving every year."

Suisui ran towards Gu Jiaorong holding his freshly-made painting.

She is still a young bird and is still dependent on her parents while she learns to fly.

"Really? We've made progress year after year. Come and show it to Mother."

Gu Jiaorong smiled and opened her arms to Sui Sui. Her tone was gentle and even her expression was full of love for Sui Sui.

In fact, as an outsider, she couldn't see any progress or changes, but when she heard Sui Sui say this, she would still give positive feedback because she knew that children needed praise.

Especially a child like Suisui, she has grown up in love and praise, and Gu Jiaorong has never been stingy with her praise.

"Look, mother, isn't she beautiful?"

Suisui handed the painting in her hand to Gu Jiaorong without any embarrassment.

She is a very generous child, and can express her praises frankly even when praising herself.

Gu Jiaorong knew that her personality was awkward, and she didn't want her daughter to be like her.

"Very beautiful, very beautiful. Our Suisui is really amazing."

Gu Jiaorong smiled and nodded, trying hard to praise Suisui.
