Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

Chapter 66: Father and Son Ring Tossing Competition

Being praised for his good looks, Lu Chenxiao calmed down in a very good mood.

Meng Yunshang successfully put her attention back on her son, and when she lowered her head she met Huai'an's expectant eyes.

"Mother, is Second Master Lu really that powerful?"

"I heard he made a flying wooden pony a few years ago."

A flying wooden horse!

Huai'an was stunned by the explosive news. After he came to his senses, he grabbed Meng Yunshang and asked repeatedly, "Really? Really?"

Meng Yunshang scratched his nose lightly and smiled, "Wait until he comes to the palace, and then you can ask him directly?"

"Okay! Then when will he come? Huai'an can't wait."

"It will be quick," Meng Yunshang said firmly.

The Lu family is very large and has many members in both the direct and collateral branches, but most of them have not achieved much. Even Lu Hetai himself only holds a sinecure position in the court.

Therefore, the Lu family is eager to have their descendants succeed in life, which will not only continue the Lu family's wealth, but also help the virtuous concubines in the palace.

Lu Yan had never liked studying since he was a child, and preferred mechanical arts. He had never been valued by his family. As soon as the flying wooden horse was made, it was smashed by the elders of the Lu family in the name of not doing his job properly.

As a result, Lu Hetai also had a headache about his son.

She promised Lu Hetai that as long as Lu Yan could come to teach Huai'an, she would help him in his career.

For the Lu family, this is like a long-awaited blessing, and Lu Hetai would definitely not refuse.

After getting the answer he wanted, Huai'an's mouth was full of praise as if it was smeared with honey, "It turns out that mother really understands Huai'an. Huai'an loves mother so much."

Meng Yunshang asked him with a smile, "Huai An doesn't blame mother? If mother hadn't changed the compensation conditions, you would have had another profitable shop."

Huai'an said without hesitation, "The shop is not as important as my mother's wishes. What's more, my mother changed the conditions for Huai'an. Huai'an is so happy."

He originally wanted to take advantage of his father's power to intimidate the Lu family.

Now that the goal has been achieved, it doesn’t matter whether Jinxiu Pavilion is accepted or not. He doesn’t lack shops anyway.

"As long as you're happy," Meng Yunshang pinched his little nose and said lovingly.

Huai'an immediately held his little face with both hands and scolded in a childish voice, "Mom, you will spoil me like this."

"Spoil her if you want. You are my mother's baby."

"I like my mother~"

Meng Yunshang has become accustomed to the little guy expressing his feelings from time to time, and is happy to respond to him with the same enthusiasm, "I like Huai'an, too!"

"(*^__^*) Hehe..."

Huai'an smiled so hard that his teeth were visible.

But from an angle that Meng Yunshang couldn't see, he smiled provocatively at Lu Chenxiao.

So what if mother praises you for being pretty? If you and I didn’t share a face, how could mother possibly like your old face?

Lu Chenxiao: “???”

The brat deserves a beating again!

Huai'an has lived in Beijing since he was a child and has eaten authentic Beijing cuisine.

He had always thought that this was how food was eaten everywhere in the Yuan Dynasty, until the shopkeeper passed by him with grilled lamb chops, and he felt like his head was about to fall off from the smell.

It's crispy, fragrant, and even sizzling with oil.

The moment he bit it into his mouth, he felt like he was elevated.

Wow, how can there be such delicious food in this world?

In the past four years, what he ate was not even gourmet food. It turned out that there was still a future for him to follow his mother.

Worried that the young master couldn't handle spicy food, the shopkeeper instructed the kitchen to set aside a small portion and make it less spicy with cumin flavor.

But even so, Huai'an still ate with his mouth full of oil and no manners at all.

Lu Chenxiao didn't want to look at him any more, and whispered to Meng Yunshang, "If someone familiar meets us later, we'll just say we don't know him."

Meng Yunshang: “???”

"Father..."

"Shut up and don't spit your saliva on your mother."

As he spoke, he decisively moved Meng Yunshang's stool closer to him.

Then he gracefully cut the entire plate of grilled lamb chops into individual long strips, and placed the most charred and fragrant ones side by side on the plate in front of Meng Yunshang.

He gestured to Meng Yunshang, "Try it."

After Meng Yunshang lowered her head to taste it, he began to cut the roasted lamb leg.

The roasted lamb leg was sliced ​​into thin slices and placed on a plate, and a bowl of lamb offal soup was scooped and placed in front of Meng Yunshang.

Huai'an looked at the exquisitely presented dish in front of his mother, then looked at the messy teeth marks left by his own gnawing, and silently put down the lamb chops.

Then he called Danqiu to wash his face and hands.

After making sure that he was clean again, he simply dragged a stool and sat next to his mother.

He was holding a clean supa in his hand.

"An An, what are you doing?"

"Eat in peace, mother. Huai'an will serve you."

In order to prove that what he said was true, he raised the handkerchief and wiped off the oil stains on Meng Yunshang's lips.

He can do better and more carefully what his father can do, and he must be the first person in his mother's heart.

No one can shake his position in his mother's heart, including his hateful father.

His serious little look made Meng Yunshang so amused that she couldn't let him go and simply held him and made him sit on her lap.

"Baby, whatever you want to eat, mommy will pick it up for you."

"Huai'an likes everything that mother likes to eat. Mother doesn't have to give in to Huai'an. From now on, the meals in the mansion will be prepared according to mother's preferences."

Lu Chenxiao nodded calmly, "Finally you said something sensible. Of course, we have to follow your mother's preferences on what she wants to eat."

"I know!" Huai'an raised his chin and snorted.

Because his father truly loved his mother, he reluctantly agreed to join forces with him temporarily.

The father and son, who had temporarily stopped fighting, enjoyed this rare time as a family of three in tacit understanding.

It had been a while since Meng Yunshang had eaten such authentic Northwestern cuisine, and she accidentally ate too much.

She stroked her round belly, refused Danqiu's suggestion to take a carriage, and walked out of Tianxiang Tower with Huai'an to walk to digest the food.

Lu Chenxiao took the initiative to walk beside her.

It was getting late, the streets were brightly lit, and many vendors had already started their nighttime sales.

Huai'an had never seen such a lively scene.

In the past, he would either go to bed early or hide outside Xianyun Courtyard to peek at his mother. He never wandered around the streets at this time.

Now opening the door to a new world, holding Meng Yunshang's hand, he couldn't wait to run to the stall.

"Look, mother, this lantern is so beautiful."

"Wow, there's also pot-tossing."

"Hey, this little doll can move, but why doesn't it fall over?"

"Mother, come and see..."

No matter what Huai'an asked, Meng Yunshang would respond. As long as he expressed his liking for something, Meng Yunshang would let Danqiu pay for it.

After a while, Lu Ming had so many things in his hands that he could no longer stack them, and Danqiu's purse was empty.

Huai'an was still in high spirits, standing in front of a ring-tossing stall, unable to move.

"Mother~"

Even though he didn't say it out loud, Meng Yunshang knew that he wanted to play.

Not to mention, he opened his big watery eyes and looked at her eagerly.

Meng Yunshang had no power to resist, and immediately turned around and told Danqiu, "Go get some bamboo rings for the prince."

The little guy immediately cheered, "Wow, mom really loves me the most."

Lu Chenxiao had been protecting the mother and son. Hearing his cheers, which he had repeated countless times, he rolled his eyes in disgust.

Huai'an turned around and saw the white eyes. He immediately put his hands on his waist and shouted, "Father, let's have a competition to see who can catch the most things."

"Who gave you the courage to make you think you can defeat me?"

Lu Chenxiao almost carved the word "disdain" on his forehead.

Huai'an raised his chin and challenged with the courage of a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger, "Just tell me whether you dare or not?"
