A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace-Chapter 992: Name

"The year has passed so quickly, next month is Yue Er’s birthday!"

Xia Ruqing said with a smile.

Zhao Junyao casually picked up a book and sat on the other side of the kang table.

He flipped through the book, deep in thought.

"You’re right, it’s time to name my little princess! But... what name should I choose?!"

Xia Ruqing giggled.

"Well, it seems like you’ll have to put some thought into it, Emperor!"

Nearby, Xiao Lele imitated them as she started talking, saying ’ah oh’ while kicking her little feet, trying to step forward.

Xia Ruqing clapped to encourage her.

"Yue Er, go find your father!"

"Hold onto the table yourself and walk over!"

Yue Er clasped her small hands and chuckled.

Mumbling ’Wuwang, Wuwang,’ she attempted to move forward.

But she was still small.

As soon as she lifted her foot, she struggled to keep steady, almost toppling over.

Luckily, Xia Ruqing supported her in advance.

She laughed with tears in her eyes.

"It seems it’ll take two more months for this little girl to learn to walk!"

Zhao Junyao waved his hand.

"No rush!"

"My princess is smart and clever, what’s the difference between two more months or two less months!"

"Right, Yue Er!"

Yue Er saw her father talking to her and laughed gleefully.

"Wuwang, Wuwang!"

Zhao Junyao laughed with tears in his eyes and picked her up.

"It’s ’father,’ not ’Wuwang!’"

Yue Er happily kicked her feet, showing a few cute baby teeth.

"It’s ’Wuwang, Wuwang!’"

"And what about mother concubine? Call mother concubine!" Xia Ruqing stepped forward.

Little Yue Er looked at her, then smiled and said.

"Muwei, Muwei!"

Xia Ruqing and Zhao Junyao laughed together.

"This child is a little joy-bringer!"

Little Yue Er indeed was interesting, cheerful and loves to laugh.

She is bound to grow into a lively and grand princess.

Zhao Junyao looked at his daughter in his arms, feeling she was more adorable with every glance, never getting enough.

After playing a while, Xia Ruqing saw it was getting late and went forward.

"Alright, Emperor, Yue Er has played all day and should go to sleep now!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"You’ve also been busy all day, take a good rest tomorrow on leisure day!"

Tomorrow is leisure day.

Not only Zhao Junyao will be resting, but Henger, Yeye, and Chenchen will also be free.

Previously, on leisure days, Chenchen didn’t like coming back.

Since having a sister, Chenchen runs to Duanning Palace every leisure day.

He occasionally brings gifts for his sister.

Yue Er joyfully chases after him, calling ’Guoguo,’ which actually means brother.

Henger and Yeye enjoyed reading to Yue Er.

Yue Er also likes to listen.

Every time the two buns read books.

Yue Er would sit quietly, fluttering her big eyes and listening intently, as if she truly understood.

Henger and Yeye felt accomplished.

Over time.

It has led to the present situation:

On leisure days, everyone competes to spend time with little Yue Er.

Chenchen wants to play with her, Henger and Yeye also want to play with their sister.

As for Zhao Junyao, he wants to play with his daughter too.

Unfortunately, he feels embarrassed to compete with his sons.

So he can only come and hold her for longer whenever possible.

Seeing Qingqing urging him and noticing his daughter was indeed getting weary.

He unwillingly let go, allowing the wetnurse nanny to carry the little princess back.

In the evening, after washing up and lying in bed.

Zhao Junyao felt a bit down.

"Qingqing, what will happen when Yue Er marries someday?"

Xia Ruqing was amused.

"Getting married is great!"

"Every girl needs a home eventually, you can’t raise her forever!"

Zhao Junyao felt a bit sore, raising his eyebrows.

"Why can’t I raise her forever?"

After saying it, he realized it might be impossible, so he added.

"Even if not, she still has her brothers..."

Xia Ruqing felt even more helpless.

"Emperor, what’s going on with you?"

Even though she is his daughter, she can still get jealous!

She couldn’t help but kick him.

"Stop saying that, or I will get jealous!"

"Alright, alright!"

Zhao Junyao quickly came to his senses and embraced her.

"Alright, I won’t say it anymore!"

Xia Ruqing nestled in his arms contentedly, educating him word by word.

"Yue Er will have another boy to love, cherish, and protect her in the future!"

"While you can only love, cherish, and protect me!"

Zhao Junyao chuckled.

"Alright!"

"My Qingqing, I love you, cherish you, and protect you!"

Xia Ruqing beamed with happiness.

"That’s more like it!"

"Sleep!"

...

The two embraced, sleeping soundly through the night.

The next day is leisure day.

Early in the morning before dawn, Chenchen arrived.

Usually calm, once at Duanning Palace, he seemed like a different person.

He rushed to the side room.

"Yue Er! Yue Er!"

Zi Yue quickly came out to stop him.

"Your Highness!"

"The Princess is still sleeping, could you wait a bit longer!"

Chenchen frowned.

"Yue Er isn’t awake yet? I’ll go check!"

With that, he tried to go in, and Zi Yue couldn’t do much to stop him.

The children are still innocent of gender differences.

But the little princess definitely wasn’t awake yet!

Chenchen entered briefly and came out rubbing the back of his head sheepishly.

"Then, I’ll go have breakfast and come back!"

After speaking, he turned and marched away.

"Luck to Your Highness!"

Zi Yue smiled and shook her head.

Xia Ruqing came out in her inner clothes, yawning and asking.

"What’s going on?"

Zi Yue explained everything honestly.

After listening, Xia Ruqing was a bit surprised.

"Chenchen came so early?"

"Don’t worry, madam, he’s gone to have his meal!"

Xia Ruqing nodded, turning to the side room.

"Madam, what are you going to do?" Zi Yue followed.

"Going to check on my precious daughter!"

"She usually cries a bit every morning, I’m a bit worried!"

Though expressing jealousy, she still loved her dearly.

After all, she carried and birthed her daughter for ten months.

It’s impossible not to love her!

...

At dawn, little Yue Er woke up crying, fed, and then went back to sleep peacefully.

The wetnurse nanny stepped forward smiling.

"Madam, rest assured, the little princess is fine, she’s asleep now!"

Children need plenty of sleep.

This second sleep usually lasts until late morning.

Xia Ruqing knew this, nodding in reassurance.

"You should rest too!"

"I’ll sit here for a while!"

"Thank you, madam!"

The wetnurse left after paying respects.

Xia Ruqing sat by the bed.

She touched her daughter’s soft cheek, watched her sleeping face, feeling her heart melt, murmuring to herself.

"Little Yue Er, you truly are blessed."

"Your father loves you, your brothers love you, and your mother loves you too!"

"My darling!"

"I hope you grow up safe and sound, live happily and carefree forever!"

She finished and lowered her head, planting a kiss on her daughter’s cheek, reluctantly leaving.

Returning to her room, she still felt a bit drowsy.

So she leaned into Zhao Junyao’s arms for another nap.

After all, today is leisure day, how rare it is!

Waking from this nap, the sun was already high.

The sounds of Chenchen, Yeye, and Henger playing in the courtyard traveled far.
