Everyone's eyes were almost glued to the three little buns, wishing they could steal them home and raise them.
Listening to the voices of praise around her, the fifth princess couldn't help but snorted coldly, with a look of disdain on her face.
Just as she was about to refute something, she heard the servant outside shout loudly: "The Empress Dowager is here."
The Empress Dowager seldom leaves the palace, and her arrival surprised everyone. At the same time, let everyone understand that the Empress Dowager attaches great importance to these three children.
The Empress Dowager was walking slowly, surrounded by a group of court ladies. She was wearing a bright yellow dress with auspicious patterns embroidered on it, and her head was covered with emerald jewels. She looked graceful and luxurious.
A few children came to the banquet today, Su Xiaorui hit it off with the children immediately, and became familiar with them immediately, and now he is pulling Ye Xiaonian to play with them.
The two of them suddenly saw the Queen Mother approaching, and hurriedly ran towards the Queen Mother, holding the Queen Mother from left to right.
Su Xiaorui raised her fair face and asked the Queen Mother with a smile, "Grandmother, why are you here?"
When the queen mother saw the two children, the solemnity on her face turned into kindness. She smiled and said, "Today is the full moon wine for your younger brothers and sisters. How can you not come on this day of great joy? Besides, great-grandmother hasn't seen you for a long time. Come and see you guys."
Su Xiaorui was still very straightforward when expressing his love: "Grandmother, we miss you so much."
The Empress Dowager feigned anger: "I miss my great-grandmother, why don't I come to see my great-grandmother in the palace?"
Su Xiaorui pulled her sleeves and rubbed them in front of her, coaxing the queen mother to be very happy.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene. Looking at the entire royal family, if they dare to make trouble with the queen mother like this, there is no one else but Xiaorui, and the queen mother will follow his tricks.
Sitting next to Ye Feifan, Ye Jing pursed his small mouth in taste, feeling very uncomfortable.
Ye Feibai had ordered his servants to prepare a seat for the queen mother, Xiaorui and Xiao Nian helped the queen mother to sit in her place.
Everyone stood up and saluted the queen mother: "Join the queen mother."
The Empress Dowager sat down in her seat and slightly raised her hand to avoid everyone's politeness.
The Queen Mother turned her head to look at Su Ying, seeing that she was plump and ruddy, and she couldn't help showing a satisfied expression on her face: "This child is the most harmful to the body, and more generals need to be raised."
Su Ying looked forward to Qingbo, her beautiful eyes showed a trace of gratitude: "Thank you for your concern, Grandmother."
Su Xiaorui sat down beside the Queen Mother, shook her arm, blinked and blinked: "Grandmother, did you prepare any presents today?"
When Su Xiaorui said this, everyone was stunned again, the Second Young Master of Prince Huai's Mansion was so bold that he openly asked the Empress Dowager for a gift.
The queen mother was not annoyed, she stretched out her hand with a smile and scratched Su Xiaorui's nose: "You, are you asking for a gift for your younger siblings?"
Su Xiaorui's eyes curved slightly: "Grandmother has a lot of good things in her hand, Xiaorui wants to ask for one for her younger brother and sister, no, it's three."
The queen mother laughed aloud, and she glared at him: "You know that you are thinking about your great-grandmother."
"Xiao Rui knows that Grandmother loves us the most."
"Mother Hu." The Queen Mother called out, and Mother Hu said yes, and opened the tray in the hand of a maid behind her, and saw three similar gold inlaid jade pendants on it.
The quality of the jade is clear, the shape is exquisite, and it looks small and exquisite. It exudes a warm color under the sun, which is very cute.
The queen mother stood up and hung the pendants on the necks of the three children with her own hands.
Under everyone's envious eyes, Su Ying stood up and expressed her gratitude to the Queen Mother on behalf of the three children.
The queen mother looked at the children one by one, and she couldn't bear to look away. Her face was full of love and affection: "Oh, the little great-grandson of the Ai family is so good-looking, so cute."
Su Xiaorui said proudly: "That is, who made him our younger brother."
Ye Xiaonian couldn't help showing a helpless smile in her eyes.
Little Potato and Little Pumpkin both slept soundly, only Little Tomato woke up, but he didn't cry or make trouble, just raised his two little hands and waved to play.
The Queen Mother couldn't help but hugged him in her arms, shook his little hand gently, and coaxed him, she raised her head and asked, "But you got a name?"
Su Ying smiled and said, "Not yet."
Su Xiaorui answered: "It's just a nickname, this one is Little Tomato, this one is Little Potato, and my sister is Little Pumpkin."
The Queen Mother laughed and said, "This nickname is really cute."
Su Ying looked at the Queen Mother and said gently, "Would these three children be lucky enough to be named by the Queen Mother?"
Speaking of which, in this Dongling country, no child has ever been blessed to be named by the Queen Mother.
The queen mother nodded slightly, and after thinking for a while, she slowly said: "These children have deep blessings. It's not as good as the little potato called Ye Zetian, and the little tomato is called Ye Zeyang. I hope they are broad-minded. As for the girl's What's your name, because of her beautiful appearance, let's choose Xiaoyan."
Little Tomato seemed to be satisfied with the new name, and waved at the queen mother, babbling a few times.
Su Xiaorui squeezed Little Tomato's hand: "Brother Zeyang."
After the queen mother gave the name, there were inevitably some flattering voices around, Su Ying and Ye Feibai expressed their gratitude to the queen mother again.
The banquet continued.
The queen mother didn't care about talking to others, she just teased her great-grandson, her face was full of smiles, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were relaxed a lot.
The eldest princess sat beside the queen mother and looked at the queen mother with a smile on her eyes: "Grandmother, such a small child is so sensible."
The queen mother nodded and said: "Yes, I have never seen such a well-behaved child."
Seeing that the queen mother loved this child, everyone immediately poured out compliments—beautiful, well-behaved, blessed, all kinds of beautiful adjectives were used on them.
The fifth princess sneered in dissatisfaction: "I don't know if this is a blessing or not, but why does this child look so ugly to me, like a little old man."
The fifth princess's voice was neither high nor low, which happened to be heard by everyone around her.
The queen mother frowned, with an unhappy look on her face.
The eldest princess glared at the fifth princess: "Children will look good when they grow up."
The fifth princess smiled and walked to the side of the eldest princess, looked at Little Tomato carefully, her lips curled up in mockery: "Your sister also thinks this child is ugly, right?"
"Look at his red and chubby face, those eyes, this nose, and that mouth... The triplets look exactly alike, so all three must be equally ugly, right?"
There was a sudden silence all around.
A shadow of prey flashed in Ye Feibai's eyes.
A gleam of coldness flashed in Su Ying's dark eyes.
Su Xiaorui and Ye Xiaonian clenched their hands tightly into fists, raised their eyes and stared at the fifth princess bitterly.
