Chapter 923 - 924 - My Son is Smarter Than You_1
"I think," Luo Linhao stroked his chin and said, "I think they’re like beggars who, after having their fill, have nowhere to go, so they just continue to sleep. When they’re hungry, they wake up to eat, and after eating, they go back to sleep."
Yang Chuxia nodded upon hearing this; she also felt there was some resemblance, but something seemed off. It reminded her of the thieves Ye Ziping had brought from Funan.
"Where are my nephews?" As he entered the small building, Luo Linhao clamored to see the babies.
Ye Yi and Ye Er were both guarding the hall on the first floor, and they stepped forward to greet everyone as they returned.
On the second floor, the two little ones had just woken up, and Li’s mother had just changed their diapers.
"Are you hungry?" She reached for Yangyang’s hand, and, as if smelling a familiar scent, he actually stretched out his head towards Yang Chuxia.
Ye Zi’an, surprised, asked, "Can he recognize people now?"
"Tsk, do you think your son is some kind of genius? It’s just instinct." Yang Chuxia watched as Yangyang squirmed around in her arms, clearly hungry and instinctively searching for food. Thus, she took the child to the inner room, while Li’s mother also took Little Lele inside.
It was a while before the two babies were brought back out.
"Here, let the child’s father hold him!" she said, handing Yangyang over to him.
And Luo Linhao reached for Little Lele in Li’s mother’s hands, "I want to hold this one, let his uncle hold him for a bit. Little Lele, I’m your uncle, you know."
"Do you know how to hold him?" Yang Chuxia was a bit uneasy.
"Tsk, it’s just holding a child, it’s like holding a pig. What’s so hard about that?" Luo Linhao said as he reached out to take Little Lele.
Li’s mother was about to let him hold the baby, but upon hearing his remark about holding a pig, she immediately turned away, causing him to grab at the air.
"You little rascal, are you asking for a beating? What kind of nonsense is that?"
"Oi, I misspoke, okay? Li’s mother, just let me hold him for a bit, I’ll be careful, okay?" Luo Linhao could clearly see that Li’s mother was reluctant to let him hold the child.
Hearing this, Li’s mother looked to Yang Chuxia, and seeing her nod, she instructed, "Young Master Luo, be careful. Support the bottom with one hand and the head and neck area with the other, otherwise he might get hurt."
"Oh my, I know, I know, you’re so long-winded. Little Lele, I’m your uncle, say uncle, huh?"
"You’re really dumb!" While Ye Zi’an was playing with Yangyang, he said, "As if your child could speak before two months old."
"You’re just as dumb. Do you think I’m stupid? I was just joking."
"But you’re still dumb."
"You’re the dumb one..."
The two brothers went back and forth, each with a baby in their arms, and it seemed the little ones found the exchange amusing. They gazed at each other from a distance, smiling and waving their hands, as if greeting one another.
"See, my son is smarter than yours. He knows to smile when he sees his brother," Ye Zi’an concluded.
Not to be outdone, Luo Linhao retorted, "Relax, my son will be smarter than yours in the future."
Yang Chuxia shook her head speechlessly at the two men’s childishness.
Disregarding their banter, since the children were in their care, she went downstairs with Li’s mother to see what they had for dinner that night.
"The kids are sleeping with us tonight!" Yang Chuxia declared after dinner.
After all, Ye Ziping hadn’t been caught yet, and she was somewhat anxious. Most importantly, the people at the two tables outside made her feel very uncomfortable. Indeed, the people at those two tables had not left by nightfall.
"Have Ye Yi and Ye Er keep an eye on them."
"Mhm, I’ve already instructed them," Ye Zi’an nodded.
