Shu Wanniang clapped her hands to attract their attention. She pointed at the things on the stage and said, “Hurry up and choose what you like. Go quickly.” Everyone cheered for them to go. Xiuhong even specially picked up something and shook it to attract their attention.
Kejia stared at Xiuhong’s hand for a while before losing interest. She turned her head to look at the people watching them carefully. As if she thought of something fun, she suddenly giggled. Bosi looked up at his sister seriously before turning his head to continue staring at the guests expressionlessly.
Three black lines slid down Mu Yangling’s forehead. Just as she was wondering if she should cheat and help them sweep the things in front of them, Kejia stopped laughing and turned to look at the things on the stage. She supported herself with her small hand and lifted her butt first. Then, she got up with difficulty and staggered towards a large pile of things.
Everyone who was worried about the awkward silence heaved a sigh of relief. It was fine as long as they were willing to make a move.
Kejia wanted to kick something, but since she could barely walk, how could she kick anything? As soon as she raised her foot, she fell to the ground. Perhaps because it was a little painful, she was stunned for a moment before looking at her mother blankly.
Shu Wanniang quickly turned her head to the side to avoid looking at her, but Kejia touched her butt with her tiny hand and looked at her mother. When she happened to catch her mother’s gaze, she burst into tears and opened her arms aggrievedly to ask for a hug.
Shu Wanniang pointed at the things on the stage and said, “Kejia, be good. Pick up something you like first. Mother will hold you later.”
Refusing to listen, Kejia continued wailing.
Shu Wanniang could not help but feel anxious. Bosi finally looked over. He looked at his sister and then at his mother. Then, a disdainful expression appeared on his face.
Mu Yangling swore that she had not seen wrongly. It was a disdainful expression.
Bosi got up from the ground and jogged to Kejia’s side. He rubbed her face with his small hand. Mu Yangling felt that he might have wanted to wipe her sister’s tears, but he didn’t seem to have succeeded. He wiped her tears all over her face, so he might as well not wipe them.
Realizing this problem as well, Bosi squatted in front of his sister and looked at her face. Finally, he grabbed his sister’s sleeve and wiped it on her face…
Mu Yangling almost wanted to cover her face. The courtyard was also silent as everyone looked at the siblings on the stage.
Bowen tugged at his sister’s sleeve and whispered, “Sister, why don’t we help Bosi and Kejia?”
“How can we help them in front of everyone?”
Bowen cocked his head. “Put something in front of them?”
Mu Yangling looked at the stage and said, “Forget it. They’re still young anyway. Just let them play.”
Kejia couldn’t cry out loud because of her brother. In the end, when her sleeve was let go, her nose was red and the tears on her face were gone, but there was some suspicious substance on her sleeve.
Looking at his sister’s face, Bosi was satisfied. He propped himself up on the ground with his small hands and pushed everything to surround his sister. However, Kejia probably felt that it was fun and forgot about her grievances just now. She got up and followed her brother to push the things on the stage over to make a pile.
Seeing that it was getting late, Great-aunt couldn’t help but become anxious. She lured the two children and said, “Bosi, Kejia, quickly choose something you like. Once you’ve chosen it, I’ll give you candy.”
Bosi raised his head and glanced at Great-aunt. He casually picked up the book beside him and handed it to her. Beaming, Great-aunt said, “Alright, alright. You chose a book©. Our Bosi will take the Imperial Examination and become a high-ranking official in the future.”
The people around them quickly chimed in, “Bosi looks bright. He will definitely succeed in his studies and become a high-ranking official in the future.”
Bosi tilted his head in confusion and looked at Great-aunt for a while. Seeing that she did not take it, he threw the book in his hand away. He was by the side of the stage, so when he tossed it aside, the book fell to the ground.
Bosi lowered his head to take a look, but Kejia also quickly crawled over and lowered her head to take a look. Perhaps she thought it was fun, she also threw down the things beside her. As she threw them down, she clapped her hands and laughed.
Perhaps Bosi was still thinking about what his mother and great-aunt had said just now and thought that they wanted something from the stage. Therefore, he kept picking it up and extending it to them. When he saw that they didn’t want it, he threw it down and went to pick up something else…
Shu Wanniang and Great-aunt:”…”
Fortunately, there were a lot of things on the stage. Kejia eventually got tired of throwing them and felt that it wasn’t fun anymore. She started to focus on the things on the stage. Seeing that the rouge was brightly-colored and glamorous, she picked it up and looked at it. Before everyone could praise her for having great beauty when she grew up, she threw it aside. Then, she excitedly grabbed a book at the side and opened it like her elder brother. She pointed at the words on it and babbled something that only she could understand…
Everyone fell silent for a moment before saying, “Kejia will definitely be a talented lady in the future…”
However, Bosi grabbed a wooden sword on the stage. There were small animals carved on the wooden sword that Shu Wanniang had chosen. Perhaps attracted by those animals, he held the sword to study it. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and praised, “Bosi is going to be a great general in the future…”
Shu Wanniang didn’t dare to let the two children stay on the stage anymore. Just as she was about to carry them down, Kejia looked up and saw the sword in her brother’s hand. Her eyes lit up. With the book in hand, she crawled over to grab the sword from her brother’s arms…
At the same time, Shu Wanniang and Great-aunt were about to pick them up when Kejia screamed and grabbed the wooden sword, refusing to let go. Bosi cried out anxiously and tugged at the wooden sword, refusing to give it to her.
Kejia picked up the book from earlier and stuffed it into her brother’s arms, wanting to snatch the wooden sword.
Without so much as a glance at the book, Bosi held the sword in one hand and pushed his sister with the other. Soon, the two of them were fighting. Shu Wanniang and Great-aunt could not tear them apart no matter how hard they tried.
Mu Yangling couldn’t let everyone watch the commotion. She went forward and carried the sword and the book back into the house. Then, she placed the two little ones on the brick bed, but they were still fighting over them.
Mu Yangling patted their heads and said, “Go ahead. As long as they don’t hurt each other, it’s fine. Xiuhong, watch them. Don’t let them hurt their eyes with that sword.”
“Is this how an elder sister should react? Hurry up and break up the fight,” Great-aunt said.
“If we do that, they’ll definitely cry.” Mu Yangling said, “There are so many guests outside. Leave them be. They won’t cry anyway.”
According to past experience, things would be fine after a victor emerged between the two children. The victor wouldn’t show off after winning, and the loser wouldn’t cry after losing. How wonderful!
Shu Wanniang originally wanted to separate the two children, but when she heard this, she turned around and left. She even pulled Great-aunt along. “Forget it, let them be.”
As expected, as soon as the two little ones were placed on the brick bed, they immediately started fighting again. Bosi grabbed the thing desperately and pulled it towards himself without saying a word.
Kejia, on the other hand, liked to scream as she pulled. From time to time, she would even use some children’s language to try to persuade or attack Bosi as she pulled the thing towards herself.
Mu Yangling, Bowen, and the rest watched with interest. In the end, Bosi took the initiative to let go after he got bored of it. Only then did Kejia successfully snatch the wooden sword.
Perhaps feeling embarrassed, Kejia hugged the wooden sword tightly and stuffed the book she had decided against into her brother’s arms. She said fawningly, “Ah, ah.”
Mu Yangling laughed out loud and stroked Bosi’s head. “Bosi, this is from your younger sister.”
Bosi looked at his elder sister and finally took the book, feeling aggrieved. He unfolded it on his calf and lowered his head to read.
Satisfied, Kejia carried the wooden sword and turned around to play by herself.
