Chapter 130: Is Xiao Fu Bao Disliked? The Whole City Loves Me With Their Lives
Chapter 130: Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly
Ying Qiao Qiao?
Suisui was not unfamiliar with this name. It belonged to the beautiful sister she had seen before.
The other person's voice was just as bright as Meng Meng's, and she was very articulate.
Suisui envied people who could talk so well.
At that moment, when Liu He Meng mentioned it, Suisui immediately nodded, “I know Sister Qiao Qiao!”
Hearing Suisui call her Sister Qiao Qiao, Liu He Meng felt a bit sour.
However, she considered herself a generous girl and wouldn’t hold a grudge against her little sister.
The little sister was still young; what did she know? It must be that little rascal Ying Qiao Qiao who had lured her in.
Hmph, little rascal.
Liu He Meng silently scolded in her heart and, feeling guilty, glanced at her grandfather.
When she saw that he wasn't looking her way, she gently wrapped her arm around Suisui's waist, snuggling close to her adorable sister.
Her sister was so soft and cute, way better than her smelly brother!
Even cuter than Ying Qiao Qiao.
Liu He Meng really liked Suisui!
Sometimes, it might just be fate.
Liu He Meng thought that Suisui, this little sister, was just right for her.
If only she were her real little sister!
Suisui obediently allowed Liu He Meng to embrace her, the sister's arm lightly resting on her waist. Liu He Meng also smelled nice, a faint medicinal fragrance wafting from her.
The medicinal scent was pleasant, a different kind of aroma.
It was quite similar to the one her grandfather had.
Suisui liked it very much.
As she inhaled the scent, Suisui nestled closer into Liu He Meng’s embrace.
Noticing her sister’s affection, Liu He Meng was so happy that she couldn’t help but shake her head with glee.
At that moment, she leaned close to Suisui’s ear, afraid of startling her with her loud voice, or shouting too much and hurting her ears.
This usually boisterous girl now spoke in a softer tone, “Sister, do you want to play with bamboo leaf dragonflies? It’s really fun!”
Suisui had never heard of it and was a bit curious.
She gently turned her head, her beautiful eyes blinking, making Liu He Meng unable to resist wanting to scratch Suisui's chin.
That expression, those eyes, reminded her of a little raccoon; who could resist touching them?
Unable to hold back, Liu He Meng lightly scratched.
Suisui happily tilted her chin up.
Although she thought her sister's actions were a bit strange, Suisui didn’t think much of it and quietly asked, “Is it fun?”
Children are easily attracted to attention.
As soon as she asked, Liu He Meng couldn’t help but start bragging about her new toy.
This was something her father had carved for her with his own hands! Her father was amazing!
Liu He Meng took Suisui’s hand to fetch the little toy.
During the process, Liu He Meng kept boasting and even declared that if Suisui liked it, she could just give it to her!
From now on, they would be little partners, and Liu He Meng felt she should be generous.
Her grandfather said that Suisui had been very pitiful in the past, so it was only right for her to be kind to her sister.
After all, she was such a kind and generous young lady!
Seeing the two little girls having fun put physician Liu at ease.
He leisurely sorted through his medicinal herbs, and when he glanced at the peony bark in his hand, he lost himself in thought for a moment.
When he looked up again toward the palace, thinking of his daughter far away in the inner palace, Physician Liu sighed.
Life...
Things weren’t always going smoothly.
Children didn’t understand the worries of adults.
At this moment, Suisui and Liu He Meng were already playing with the bamboo leaf dragonfly.
This little toy was actually quite simple to operate; as long as they weren't competing over who could make it spin higher or farther, it was immensely fun.
Liu He Meng certainly wouldn’t compare lengths with Suisui. Not only that, she was particularly considerate, teaching Suisui how to spin it step by step.
“Like this, you have to spin it this many times, and then it can fly! It will fly far away!”
“Just follow how your sister does it, look... spin, spin!”
“Whoosh... it’s flying!”
...
Liu He Meng explained based on her experience, occasionally adding exaggerated sound effects.
Suisui watched Liu He Meng’s actions, her mouth agape in awe.
When she finally reacted, she clapped her hands excitedly, “Sister, you’re so amazing!”
Children can’t help but compliment.
Suisui’s praise made Liu He Meng feel truly impressive.
She stood proudly like a victorious general, puffing up her little belly and lifting her head, proudly walking up to Suisui, “Come on, Suisui, sister will teach you how to spin it too; you can do it!”
The system also encouraged Suisui in her mind: “Suisui, be brave to try, don’t be afraid! Even if you fail, it’s okay. No one ever said you had to succeed every time. Failing is also an experience; you can learn a lot from it!”
Although Suisui didn’t understand such profound principles.
But with her sister's comfort and Lele’s encouragement, she confidently picked up the bamboo leaf dragonfly.
For Suisui, a toy she had never played with before was something new and unknown.
She followed the force of Liu He Meng’s hands and spun the wooden handle.
Actually, she wasn’t very skilled either, but having seen her sister spin it, she thought it must be like this.
And, her sister’s hand was guiding her, so Suisui thought, even if it didn’t work, that was fine.
Lele said that failing wasn’t scary; it was actually a form of accumulation.
Learning from failure would increase the chance of success next time.
Suisui thought her sister looked super impressive when she was proud.
So, she also tried to puff out her little belly like Liu He Meng, but unfortunately, she was too thin to have a little belly, and it looked a bit strange when she did.
However, children don’t think about such things; she just mimicked Liu He Meng, who encouraged her from behind, “Yes, yes, Suisui is awesome! We need to have the right attitude!”
“Spin it with force!”
“Keep it in one direction.”
“Spin, spin, spin, and then fly!”
With Liu He Meng’s help, Suisui’s first attempt successfully sent the bamboo leaf dragonfly flying.
Seeing the little dragonfly take off, Suisui jumped up with joy, pointing at the dragonfly that was gently landing in the distance, excitedly shouting, “Sister, it flew! It really flew!”
The sense of achievement from seeing the dragonfly actually take off and fly far away was hard to put into words.
In short, Suisui was very happy and excited.
Her beautiful eyes, already striking, seemed to contain a whole romantic universe, shining brighter than ever.
Just looking at her made Liu He Meng want to reach out and touch her.
It felt like if she touched her, she could grasp that unknown, unending, yet desirable brilliance of civilization.
Liu He Meng was a doer; she thought it, and she did it.
So, she reached out, scratched Suisui’s chin again, and smiled, “Our Suisui is the best! You managed to make it fly on your first try—genius!”
Children don’t understand humility; Suisui knew this was a compliment, and she excitedly nodded, “Genius! We’re both geniuses!”
Old habits made Suisui unconsciously raise her cup of water, also praising Liu He Meng.
Liu He Meng had heard countless compliments, but hearing it from such a small child was a first.
She was momentarily stunned but quickly reacted, laughing heartily, “Yes, we’re both geniuses! Amazing!”
