Chapter 260: It’s More Fun to Have Younger Brother or Sister
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“So what if they come after us? Even if the King of h.e.l.l comes, 1 can still repel him.”
The few of them listened enthusiastically until they realized that the sky outside was already dark. “Oh my goodness! 1 have forgotten about the important matters as soon as the City Lord is back. The two of you hurry up. You still have to go to the back kitchen to help. Old Hea and the others said that they would cook a sumptuous meal for the City Lord tonight. Hurry up and come with me to help.”
“Oh, okay, okay.”
Aunt Zhao came excitedly and left excitedly again with Bai Shuang and the others.
As for the two little ones, when they first heard Su Ying regale them with her tale, they p.r.i.c.ked up their ears and listened attentively. However, it did not take long for them to fall asleep.
To them, many of the things Su Ying said were incomprehensible and had therefore become lullabies.
Su Ying let out a soft breath and lay down next to the two little fellows before closing her eyes.
As she inhaled the unique scent of the children, she fell asleep as well.
Su Ying woke up to the aroma of the food. She opened her eyes and saw that the inner chamber was lit up with a warm and soft light. This meant that the sky outside had already darkened.
The two children were still sleeping soundly on the bed. It was not known if it was more comfortable to sleep with their mother, but they still did not show any signs of waking up at this hour.
Su Ying sat up and thought about how long it had been since she last bathed on this trip. She then asked the black-robed men to prepare hot water for her. She had to give herself a good soak.
There was a large bathroom next to the inner chamber. It had to be said that the previous Empress was someone who really knew how to enjoy life. The bathroom was decorated with exquisite porcelain tiles on all sides, and there was a large jade pool built in the middle. The entire pool was constructed of jade, and the level of extravagance was clearly visible.
Xiao Jin said that this jade was jadeite. It was already very precious for an ordinary person to have a piece of this material carved into an accessory, but the previous Empress actually used such a precious material to construct a bathtub.
After the jade pool was filled with hot water, Su Ying took off her clothes and walked into the pool. The moment her body was immersed in hot water, she let out a sigh of relaxation.
She leaned against the side of the jade pool. The jade felt warm. The warm heat penetrated her skin and seemed to be able to infiltrate her blood, making her blood vitality circulate throughout her body.
Su Ying soaked herself in this bath for about 30 minutes. If it wasn’t for the fact that the water had cooled down substantially, she wouldn’t want to come out.
Su Ying put on a loose bathrobe, and her long hair was wrapped up with a head scarf to prevent water from dripping.
However, even so, there were still sparkling water droplets flowing down her hair and onto her face, accentuating her beautiful face even more exquisitely.
When Xiao Jin walked in, this sight of a beauty coming out of the bathtub greeted his eyes. Su Ying walked to the table, poured a gla.s.s of water, raised her chin slightly, and downed it in one gulp.
As she tilted her head back, beads of water glided down her snow-white spotless neck…
Su Ying had a good nap and was in a good mood after taking a bath.
“Have Tribal Chief Yang and the others settled down?”
“I arranged for them to stay in a side room outside the palace temporarily.”
“Mm-hmm. It’s about time to eat.”
Xiao Jin walked up to Su Ying and pulled the headscarf off her head. He pulled her to the dressing table and took a dry cloth to wipe her long hair.
Su Ying didn’t reject his gesture. “Has anything happened in the city recently?”
“No. Everything is fine.”
Su Ying nodded. “That’s good.”
“You want to take all the people from those tribes into the city?”
Su Ying didn’t deny it. “If they’re willing to stay, of course, 1 welcome them.” This was such a large city. With just their group, the city population was too small.
Xiao Jin raised his dark eyes and said, “It’s not so easy to manage when the number of people increases.”
“What’s there to be afraid of? If we can manage 1,000 people, we can manage 10,000 people as well. If we want Sky Alpha City to truly develop, how can this small population be enough?”
“What about the people from the Shepherd Tribe?”
Su Ying didn’t answer and asked Xiao Jin instead. “What do you think?”
Xiao Jin put down the cloth and took a comb from one side to comb her hair. “That is a warlike tribe. Unless they submit willingly, it won’t be easy to control them.”
Su Ying raised an eyebrow. “How can you tell?”
Xiao Jin glanced at her with an indifferent expression. “It’s not difficult to tell. Every one of them has a very stable foundation in martial arts.” They were tall and strong, but their steps were light-footed when they walked. One could tell with just one look that they were martial arts pract.i.tioners. Su Ying had mentioned on the way that almost all the people of the Shepherd Tribe were like this, so it was not difficult to guess the characteristics of this tribe.
“1 have never thought of taking them into the city either. They have been herding sheep and cattle for a living all year round. It’s not convenient for them to carry on with this activity in our place. So we can be friendly neighbors first.”
“Mm-hmm.”
Xiao Jin had the same intention too.
“City Lord, Master, it’s time to eat.”
Aunt Zhao’s voice rang out outside the door.
Xiao Jin put down the comb in his hand and took out a clean cloth band to bundle Su Ying’s hair up.
Su Ying woke the two children up. They had slept until now, so they probably wouldn’t sleep so early tonight.
The door of the hall opened, and Aunt Zhao and the others walked in with food.
It was clearly just two adults and two children having dinner, but Uncle Hea had prepared nearly ten dishes, and each dish came in a large portion. Even Su Ying, who had a big appet.i.te, was shocked by the amount of food.
“Aunt Zhao, you guys don’t go. Go and get Uncle Hea and the others to come here and eat together.”
“That won’t do. If we do this, it will be too lacking in rules. City Lord, you guys eat first. It is not too late for us to eat after all of you finish.”
It was an honor for them when the Master bestowed favors on them. However, Aunt Zhao and the others didn’t think there was anything wrong with them eating after Su Ying’s family.
Nonetheless, Su Ying still insisted that they take some of the dishes back to eat while they were hot.
Aunt Zhao had no choice but to listen to her.
Su Ying eagerly sat down at the table, picked up her chopsticks, and began eating. “Oh, I really miss Uncle Hea’s cooking…”
After taking a bite of the crispy fish, she felt that her life was complete.
When Su Ying was outside, she ate almost dry food all the time. Although she had eaten roasted meat at the Shepherd Tribe’s place for a few days, the taste of the roasted meat was still different from the cooking of Uncle Hea and the others.
Su Ying said that she couldn’t eat that much, but the chicken, duck, and fish on the table were all gobbled down by her into her tummy.
Xiao Jin and the two children watched Su Ying silently throughout the entire process. She resembled some wound-up mechanism that kept picking up food and putting it into her mouth endlessly.
Su Ying only put down her chopsticks in satisfaction when the last piece of chicken was in her stomach.
“Uncle Hea and Uncle Murong are still the best.”
The younger toddler Ling jumped down from the chair and reached out to touch Su Ying’s stomach. “Mother, your belly is so round and bloated. Do you have a younger brother or sister inside?”
Pfft!
Su Ying almost spat out a mouthful of saliva. “Who told you that?”
Ling’s big eyes spun around to look at Xiao Jin.
“Father said that it’s more fun to have a younger brother or sister. Big Brother is no fun.. Mother, can you give birth to a younger brother or sister for me?”
