The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Brother Li had already been summoned to the Ye Family home early on.

"They look so alike, can you tell which one is which?" After instructing Brother Li to take care of some matters, Ye Zi’an continued to tease his son, even though the boy was still fast asleep.

Well, Ye Zi’an asked a very truthful question, Yang Chuxia really couldn’t tell them apart, not that she was nonchalant, but the two had not a single distinct mole or birthmark on their faces or bodies, and they looked so similar—all rosy and chubby—that it was indeed hard to distinguish between them.

However, Yang Chuxia would never admit to that fact.

Instead, she said, "Don’t you see they are wearing different colors?"

Indeed, one mainly wore red, goose-yellow, and apricot, while the other predominantly wore blue, green, or white—an observation he had made the day before. But then there arose a problem: what if they were undressed, could you still tell them apart?

When he raised this question, Yang Chuxia gave him a contemptuous glance.

"Have you studied yourself stupid?" Yang Chuxia pointed to the bracelets on the wrists of the two ’baozi’ and said, "See? One has ’Le’ engraved on it, and the other ’Yang’; one has an orchid pattern, the other bamboo. Take another look at their feet, one has stars and the other, moons. Even the collars they originally had around their necks were different, but I took those off."

After she finished, Yang Chuxia looked proudly at Ye Zi’an and said, "If you still can’t tell them apart after that, then you must have a problem with your eyes."

Ye Zi’an was dumbfounded; she had actually used this method to recognize her sons, and he began to deeply doubt which child was the elder and which was the younger.

"I bet, if you took all those things off, you definitely wouldn’t know who is who."

Alright, he not only asked a very truthful question but also made a very truthful statement.

Only now, Yang Chuxia was displeased, pointing at him and snorting, "If you’re so capable, strip them both bare and then try to tell who’s who!"

At her words, Ye Zi’an touched his nose, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Seeing that he remained silent, Yang Chuxia gloated, "Humph, aren’t you the same? Still have the nerve to mock me?"

However, Ye Zi’an ignored her and continued to stare at the two ’baozi’ for a while before saying, "I think I should be able to tell who’s who."

"Are you sure?" Yang Chuxia looked at him skeptically.

"Sure!" Ye Zi’an nodded calmly.

Thus, these two irresponsible parents started to play the baby recognition game. First, Yang Chuxia sent Ye Zi’an out, then she took the two children to the big bed and covered up their clothes and accessories, leaving only their faces exposed.

"Go on, guess if the one on the left is Lele or if it’s the one on the right."

Ye Zi’an was brought back in, and Yang Chuxia didn’t rush him, letting him look carefully.

After a while, he pointed and said, "I guess the one on the right is Lele."

"Wrong!" Yang Chuxia firmly lifted the small blanket, revealing Yangyang in the white clothes underneath.

Ye Zi’an then touched his nose and said, "Let’s try again, I was distracted just now."

"Pfft..." Yang Chuxia laughed. She thought, what an excuse, you got distracted!?

Nonetheless, Yang Chuxia humored him and played again. When Ye Zi’an came back in, Yang Chuxia said, "This time, guess which one is Yangyang."

This time, Ye Zi’an wasn’t so quick, and after hesitating for a long time, he pointed and said, "Still the left side."

"Wrong, the left side is Lele!"

Ye Zi’an then stepped forward to take a closer look at the two little ones and muttered, "How could I be wrong, I could clearly see that one child’s eyes are a bit longer, right?"
