"Mm-hmm, for Mommy, Daddy picked flowers for Mommy, and we want to give some too."
Upon hearing the children’s words, An Jing looked toward Xiao Changyi and saw that he was also holding flowers, which were obviously much prettier and neater than what the four little ones had given her.
However, whether the flowers are pretty or not isn’t important, the thought is what counts.
Her husband and children all doted on her, and just thinking about it made her overjoyed.
Xiao Changyi walked up to her and handed her the flowers he was holding.
"Thank you, my treasures," An Jing thanked her four precious sons first before turning to her biggest treasure, "Thank you, husband."
Xiao Changyi didn’t say anything, he simply looked at An Jing, and seeing how exceptionally happy she was, a slight smile curled up at the corners of his cool lips.
"Mommy, hug. Hug." Seeing that Mommy was especially happy, the four little ones were also thrilled and clamored to be hugged by An Jing.
An Jing, of course, obliged the four little ones, hugging each one in turn.
All four children were small and soft, and hugging them made An Jing’s heart already turn to mush, now even more so.
After An Yiyun was hugged, he spoke to An Jing in his childish voice, "Mommy, big brother was so brave just now, he squashed a bug. We were all so scared, but big brother wasn’t afraid."
An Jing immediately patted Su Yi Jing’s little head in praise, "Our Jing’er is so capable at such a young age, well done, well done. Tonight, Mommy will make you and your brothers pancakes as a reward, how does that sound?"
"Good." Su Yi Jing nodded his little head, and compared to the beaming faces of the other three little ones, he appeared a bit more serious.
"Yay yay, we’re going to have pancakes tonight." The other three little ones jumped around in happiness.
An Jing said, "Don’t forget to thank your brother. If he hadn’t been so brave today, Mommy wouldn’t be making you pancakes tonight."
"Thank you, brother." The three little ones dutifully thanked their brother Su Yi Jing.
An Jing took the opportunity to teach a lesson, "In the future, you also need to be as brave as your brother, know that? There’s nothing to be scared of about bugs."
With the promise of a tasty treat, the three little ones agreed to whatever An Jing said. She told them this, and they all sweetly agreed, "Mm-hmm~"
Xiao Changyi thought to himself with a humph, They agree so nicely now, but later they’ll forget all about it. It happens every time.
"Go play." After letting the four little ones go play, An Jing turned back with a smile to her husband and asked, "Husband, what brought this on today? Why did you think to bring me flowers? Is there something you need?"
Xiao Changyi’s face showed little emotion as he said indifferently, "There is a matter."
An Jing had just asked casually, not really expecting Xiao Changyi to actually have something on his mind. She was momentarily surprised, then laughed, "Confession will earn leniency, come on, tell me, what’s the matter?"
Xiao Changyi didn’t speak but gestured for An Jing to look at their four children playing not far away.
An Jing followed Xiao Changyi’s gaze to the children and still couldn’t tell what was the matter, so she asked, "What’s up? Just tell me straight, you’re having me watch the kids, but how should I guess? I can’t figure it out."
Xiao Changyi, probably afraid of the children overhearing, lowered his voice a lot, "It’s time for the children to start sleeping in separate beds."
An Jing blinked twice in a daze at first, not quite grasping what he meant. Once she realized, she immediately burst out laughing.
