Chapter 357 The Little Lazybones and the Big Lazybones

The next morning, Chen Huai'an walked out the door feeling refreshed. Last night, the rain was heavy and the wind was strong, and from now on, he would never be able to practice his virginity training again.

"Sir, this is a congratulatory gift that His Highness the Crown Prince specially sent to you yesterday, saying that you should take a good look at it when you have time." Wang Bai held the congratulatory gift sent by Li Chengqian, his expression somewhat sarcastic.

It's the wedding night, you know what I mean.

Furthermore... Feng Qiao'er hasn't left the house yet, and why is that obvious?

Chen Huai'an naturally understood what Wang Bai meant, and glanced at him: "What are you looking at?"

"I'll deduct one month's wages from your pay!"

Wang Bai: "..."

"Sir, I've been beaten, imprisoned, and even assaulted people for you. I've even deceived you!" Wang Bai cried, his face contorted with grief. "How could you do this to me?"

"I'll deduct two months' wages if I say that again."

Wang Bai immediately fell silent and stopped crying.

Chen Huai'an waved, and Wang Bai handed him the congratulatory gift from Li Chengqian.

Upon opening it, Chen Huai'an raised an eyebrow. Three large characters were clearly written on it: "The Three Character Classic".

He flipped through it and found that Li Chengqian had not only compiled the Three Character Classic into a book, but also annotated every sentence.

Of course, even without annotations, the Three Character Classic is not difficult to understand.

However, if it is intended as an educational material for children, it would be even better to provide some explanations.

"Chengqian is very thoughtful." Chen Huai'an sighed, his tone full of complex emotions.

He knew what Empress Zhangsun knew, of course he knew too. He had hesitated before about whether to bring it out, but now that Li Chengqian had already prepared it for him, there was no need to hesitate anymore.

To some extent, he shared the same view as the aristocratic families: a sage should not appear in this era, much less be himself.

Before he achieved physical sainthood, if he did, who knows what Li Shimin would think?

The word "saint" is no joke, especially when referring to a living saint. It represents absolute authority and unparalleled appeal.

His prestige is already very high; if it were to rise any higher, who knows what might happen.

Honestly, if he were the emperor, he probably would also find it difficult to tolerate a sage.

"Take this and make a copy, but leave the original for me." Chen Huai'an shook his head, gathering his thoughts.

At worst, we can just take Qiao'er and Chen Sujin and run away beforehand, and wait until we are invulnerable and can go without eating beef before we come out of the mountains.

"Yes, sir." Upon hearing this, Wang Bai understood that the other party probably valued this gift highly, as it should have been carefully preserved.

He carefully took the original from Chen Huai'an and left respectfully.

"Uncle, Uncle!"

Xiao He ran over happily, hugged his leg, and tilted her little head up, asking, "Where's Sister Qiao'er?"

"Mom's telling us to have breakfast!"

Chen Huai'an smirked: "Is 'sister' something you can call me?"

You used to call her "auntie".

"Sister Qiao'er agreed!" Xiao He rubbed her face against Chen Huai'an's leg and said coquettishly, "Oh, Uncle, let's go eat. Call Sister Qiao'er to eat, I'm so hungry."

Chen Huai'an flicked her white forehead: "Your sister Qiao'er needs to rest, let's go first."

"Rest..." Xiao He tilted her head, her eyes sparkling. "So, Sister Qiao'er is a big lazybones?"

Before Chen Huai'an could speak, Xiao He counted on her little fingers and said, "Uncle, look!"

"Uncle, you used to call me a little lazybones. Now I'm all up, and Sister Qiao'er is still resting. Does that mean Sister Qiao'er is a big lazybones?"

Chen Huai'an laughed: "Yes, yes, she's a big lazybones, and you're a little lazybones. In our family, there are two lazybones, one big and one small."

Xiao He realized she had said the wrong thing, essentially admitting she was a lazybones. She pouted and grumbled, "You're always bullying me! I'm going to find Sister Qiao'er. We'll finish our food and you won't get anything to eat. You'll go hungry, hmph~"

As he spoke, the little guy took his short legs and went to the master bedroom to knock on the door.

The one who opened the door was Lan Yin, Feng Qiao'er's maid. Since her mistress was getting married, she was naturally sent over as part of her dowry.

"Young Lady Chen." Lan Yin was very respectful to Xiao He, after all, she was the only beloved daughter of the Chen family.

Even her own young mistress adored her, so how could she dare to be disrespectful?

"Lazybones Qiao'er, wake up!"

Xiao He saw the door open, but didn't go in; she just called out from outside.

At this moment, Feng Qiao'er was in no mood for dressing up. She was still wrapped in a silk quilt, her whole body ached, and her legs were more than just weak. She felt like her legs didn't belong to her anymore, and she didn't want to move at all.

Hearing Xiao He's call, she replied weakly, "Xiao He... please apologize to Sister Su Jin for me. I'll go over later. I want to rest now."

Xiao He reminded her, "Sister Qiao'er, are you really not getting up? If you don't get up, you won't get any food."

"Uncle might have already eaten. If you go too late, there won't be any left."

Feng Qiao'er's eyelids twitched. She had already witnessed Chen Huai'an's appetite, but she really couldn't move now and didn't want to talk, so she could only hum in response.

"All right."

Xiao He was a little disappointed, but she didn't continue talking about it, nor did she take it to heart. After saying goodbye to Lan Yin, she skipped away.

At the dining table, Chen Sujin noticed that only Chen Huai'an had come over. She peeked behind her and frowned, asking, "Where's Qiao'er?"

Chen Huai'an said without changing his expression, "She was too tired from yesterday's wedding and is still resting."

Chen Sujin said with a forced smile, "The wedding was too tiring? She's tired, but aren't you? You drank so much yesterday; logically, you should be the one who can't get up!"

"What are you saying?" Chen Huai'an said without batting an eye. "Of course I'm tired too, but she really can't get up, so I have to come and offer you tea in her place and pay my respects to you, my elder sister."

"Really?" Chen Sujin didn't believe a word he said, rolling her eyes at him. "If that's the case, you should have dressed more formally and brought dates, chestnuts, and dried meat to pay your respects to me. Why didn't you bring any?"

Chen Huai'an said matter-of-factly, "Then didn't I forget? You know I've always had a bad memory, and I can't remember many things."

"If you ask me, let's just forget about these trivial matters. Yesterday was tiring enough."

Chen Sujin glared at him, annoyed.

As someone who watches her brother train every day, how could she not know his physical condition?

Before the wedding, Chen Sujin privately told Chen Huai'an to be more restrained during the wedding night and not to bother the other person too much.

It seems they didn't listen.

However... Chen Sujin's face lit up with joy again in the blink of an eye.

"It's alright, it's alright. These trivial matters don't need to be done. Anyway, I'm not really your in-laws. There are only a few people in our family, so we don't need so many rules."

"Xiao An, tell me... when will I be able to hold my nephew in my arms?"

Chen Huai'an: "I can hold you anytime in my dreams, you should go back to sleep too!"

"...I can't even hold my nephew, how dare you eat my cooking? Go outside and drink some cold water!"
