Chapter 41: Even My Three-Year-Old Sister Nuo’er Can Tell
Consort Yi covered her lips and smiled. “Little Nuo’er, what honey have you smeared on your mouth? It’s always so sweet.
“Didn’t we just meet at your birthday banquet a few days ago?”
Gu Nuo’er imitated an old Grand Preceptor in the imperial court and shook her head, saying “A day apart feels like three years.”
Everyone laughed, and Consort Yi was beaming.
She reached out her hand. “Come, Baby Nuo, let Consort Mother Yi hug you.”
Gu Nuo’er ran over and entered Consort Yi’s arms like a ball of small pearls.
Consort Yi hugged the chubby child and smelled the sweet fragrance on her body.
She liked her very much and tightened her embrace.
Gu Nuo’er placed her small hands on Concubine Yi’s long sleeves and sniffed with her small nose. “Mother Yi, you smell so good!
“What is this smell? Only a fairy would smell this good!”
Consort Yi chuckled. “Little Nuo’er, you really know your stuff. This is the ‘Beauty’s Smile’ that costs 1,000 taels per 50 grams. It’s a type of spice.
“If you like it, Mother will get someone to send you a box of it tomorrow, alright?”
Before Noble Consort Qiao could say anything, the child nodded without any reservations.
She held Consort Yi’s face with her fair and chubby hands, her big black eyes sparkling.
Gu Nuo’er sighed in her childish voice, “Mother Yi, you’re beautiful like a fairy and even treat Nuo’er so well. Baby Nuo likes you~”
As she said this, she rubbed her small face against Consort Yi’s beautiful face.
She then took the initiative to kiss her on the cheek.
Noble Consort Qiao looked at her daughter’s childishness and couldn’t help but chuckle as she drank her tea.
Consort Yi couldn’t hold back against Gu Nuo’er’s adorableness.
Consort Yi hugged Gu Nuo’er tightly and looked at Noble Consort Qiao with extreme envy. “Elder Sister Noble Consort, amongst us all…
“You have the best luck! To have such a cute daughter, it’s really worth it even if one has to pay her with their life!”
Gu Nuo’er didn’t understand what Consort Yi said. She only understood the meaning of paying someone with their life.
She was so frightened that she kept waving her small hands, the flesh on her cheeks bulging.
“Mother Yi, no, no. I don’t want your life. Nuo’er only wants you to be happy~”
Consort Yi said a few ‘oh my’, then left a few rouge marks on Gu Nuo’er’s cheeks.
“My Baby Nuo is really such a good child.” As Consort Yi spoke, she glanced at Gu Zitang, who was pretending as if he didn’t exist. “Zitang, learn from your sister! She’s obedient and sensible, and she doesn’t make me angry either!”
Gu Zitang pursed his lips. “No matter how Mother looks at me, you aren’t satisfied. You only think about how to earn all your son’s allowance from him!”
Wanyin couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
Noble Consort Qiao gave her a look and Wanyin quickly held it in.
Consort Yi immediately cried out in grievance, “Elder Sister Noble Consort, listen to what this child is saying?! Is that called earning your money? Wasn’t I the one who gave you your money?!
“I’m just afraid that you’ll spend recklessly at such a young age. As the saying goes, if you don’t have money in your pocket, the mountains will collapse if you were to lean against them! You don’t even understand your mother’s painstaking efforts.”
Gu Nuo’er scratched the tip of her nose and asked curiously, “Is there such a saying?”
Gu Zitang added, “Look, even my three-year-old sister, Nuo’er, can tell. Mother has started to spout nonsense to hide your actions!”
The mother and son’s argument, coupled with the child Gu Nuo’er’s childish questions, made the scene extremely amusing.
The palace maids lowered their heads and pursed their lips, not daring to reveal their smiles.
Noble Consort Qiao waved her hand to smooth things over. “Alright, His Highness is already 14 years old, but you’re still keeping such a close eye on him. It’s no wonder the child doesn’t like it was no wonder.”
Consort Yi pretended to be sad. “He was very obedient when he was young. Who’d expect that the older he gets, the more he drives me mad?”
Gu Nuo’er’s childish voice rang out. “Mother Yi, you’ve wronged Second Brother. We went out to play today and he bought you something!”
