Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler-Chapter 459: The Baby Is Turning One Month Old

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Shi Qingshan’s younger son was named Shi Manchuan. His pet name was Stony.

On the day Stony turned one month old, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou left the palace early for the general’s mansion.

Madam Shi had a good physique condition.

After a month of recuperation, she recovered from the damage caused by the childbirth.

Furthermore, she insisted on breast-feeding him.

As a result, Shi Manchuan grew chubby. Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou adored him every time they saw him

The baby was lovely.

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou took Long Huan to see the baby a few times. Long Huan liked the baby very much, and often clamored in the palace to visit the baby.

However, Long Xiaoyuan did not take Long Huan along to the baby’s first month celebration.

Although they wanted to take Long Huan there, Long Huan caught a cold the day before yesterday.

Long Xiaoyuan did not dare to take him to the party.

Firstly, he was afraid that Long Huan would pass the cold to Shi Manchuan, and secondly, Long Huan needed to rest. If he went to the general’s mansion, he couldn’t rest well.

Therefore, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou did not take Long Huan.

The chap watched Long Xiaoyuan leave with pitiful disappointment in his eyes.

Shi Qingshan greeted Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou when they arrived.

“Father, you will be very busy today. You don’t have to look after us. We can take care of ourselves,” Long Xiaoyuan said first.

Shi Qingshan thanked him.

After sending Shi Qingshan away, Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou’s hand and went to see Stony.

Stony might have known that he was turning one month old this day, so he was very excited. When it was time for him to sleep, he stayed awake.

Madam Shi wasn’t with Stony.

The Shadow Guardians and the wet nurse were there.

The baby looked around in the cradle.

Long Xiaoyuan smiled. “This little guy knows that today is his good day. He’s so excited that he doesn’t even sleep.”

The baby didn’t understand him naturally.

But he was not afraid of Long Xiaoyuan, looking at him when he talked.

Long Xiaoyuan couldn’t help poking the baby’s cheek with his finger.

At first, Long Xiaoyuan poked carefully.

Stony stared at him.

However, when Long Xiaoyuan poked him a little harder accidentally, Stony was irritated.

Suddenly, he cried out loud.

Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan were startled.

Long Xiaoyuan was flustered.

Shi Qingzhou frowned and whispered, “Don’t cry. You are a man. Stop crying.”

Long Xiaoyuan laughed.

“Qingzhou, he’s only one month old, and you tell him this?”

“Education should start early.”

Long Xiaoyuan smiled at Shi Qingzhou’s serious expression.

“Alright. But Qingzhou, even if education should start early, don’t you think it’s too early?”

Shi Qingzhou said lightly, “As son of the Shi family, he should be educated from now. I didn’t cry like that when I was small.”

“Nonsense. When you were young, you cried more than he does,” Madam Shi said as she entered the room.

She took the child from the wet nurse skillfully.

The child smelled the familiar scent of milk on her and instantly stopped crying.

Madam Shi said to her elder son as she hugged the baby, “Qingzhou, you often cried in the first few months. For this reason, your father and I prayed to the gods!”

Shi Qingzhou was instantly embarrassed.

“Mother, don’t spout nonsense.”

“It’s true. You don’t remember that.” Madam Shi snapped.

Long Xiaoyuan giggled happily.

“Qingzhou, look, you were lying. Thankfully, Mother is here.”

Shi Qingzhou glared at Long Xiaoyuan.

Long Xiaoyuan shrugged innocently. “I didn’t say anything. Mother said it.”

Shi Qingzhou turned to leave.

“Wait for me.” Long Xiaoyuan quickly chased after him.

When Madam Shi saw Long Xiaoyuan chasing after Shi Qingzhou, she smiled.

“Stony, that’s your elder brother. The other one is also your brother. He… is a good emperor.”

“I have never seen such a man.”

“He dismissed all the concubines for one man. He has only your elder brother.”

“He is a good emperor, good to the people.”

“He is just like your father. Stony, you should grow up to be like your two elder brothers.”

The baby naturally couldn’t understand what his mother was saying.

However, the Shadow Guardians’ eyes glinted. That night Long Xiaoyuan heard these comments from the Shadow Guardians.

Instantly, Long Xiaoyuan was delighted.

Good Emperor. How nice!

Of course, that was something that would happen at night. He didn’t know about this yet, as he was chasing Qingzhou.

Long Xiaoyuan caught up to Shi Qingzhou at the courtyard gate.

“Qingzhou, I stop laughing at you, Okay? Don’t be angry.”

Shi Qingzhou glared at him.

Long Xiaoyuan hurriedly raised his hands to surrender.

“I was wrong, I was wrong. Qingzhou, please forgive me.”

Shi Qingzhou laughed in amusement.

Long Xiaoyuan looked at Shi Qingzhou and laughed as well.

“Qingzhou, you laugh. That means you are not angry? That’s great.”

Shi Qingzhou knocked on his back. “Stop joking. Let’s go out.”

“Why?”

“Go see Liu Suifeng.”

“Why?”

“I want to ask him to make something for my brother to wear to ward off poison and mosquitoes,” Shi Qingzhou said.

Long Xiaoyuan’s eyes lit up. “That’s a good idea. If he knows how, we can ask him to make more. I think many people need this.”

“Okay.” Shi Qingzhou nodded and said, “Is the clinic open today?”

Long Xiaoyuan shook his head. “I don’t know. He only works a few days in a month, and the time is not fixed. Who knows?

I think the people in the Imperial City are blind. People go to the clinic every day, and some even line up very early, including the rich and the commoners. It’s ridiculous. ”

Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan, who was about to explode, and smiled. “You are jealous.”

Long Xiaoyuan was more frustrated when he heard this.

“Why am I jealous of him? Nonsense!”

Shi Qingzhou shrugged. “Alright, it’s nonsense. Will you go?”

“Of course. Why don’t I go?”

Long Xiaoyuan said firmly.

Shi Qingzhou smiled and nodded. “Alright, since you’re going, let’s go together.”

The two of them went to see Liu Suifeng.

The clinic happened to be open.

When Long Xiaoyuan arrived, there was a sea of people.

It was said that the day’s three lucky men had just been selected. Many rich men were waiting outside.

In the beginning, the rich people came to clinic because of its connection with the royal family.

Now, they came for Liu Suifeng.

All the rich people who had been treated by Liu Suifeng were cured.

It was obvious that he was a divine doctor.

Even though the divine doctor was extremely eccentric.

One of the three commoners that Liu Suifeng chose today had a curious illness, and he spent more time on it.

Two of the three patients came out when Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou arrived.

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou exchanged a glance and went straight to the back of the clinic. They went to second floor with lightness techniques and then walked downstairs.

The Shadow Guardians here actually knew about it, so they let them go.

Otherwise, no one could go to the second floor this way.

Ouyang Chuan was not there this day.

Liu Suifeng was telling the third patient what to pay attention to. He gave him detailed instructions.

In addition, Long Si packed a lot of medicinal herbs.

Liu Suifeng raised an eyebrow when he saw the two of them coming down from the second floor.

After sending the third patient away, Liu Suifeng looked at Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou.

“Why are you here? Isn’t today your brother’s first month party? Don’t you go to the general’s mansion?”

“We’ve been there.” Long Xiaoyuan smiled. “I like to invite you over for a drink.”

Liu Suifeng smiled. “Okay, I’ll go later.”

“Since you’re going to the party, you can’t go without bringing a gift, can you?” Long Xiaoyuan immediately smiled.

The smile on Liu Suifeng’s face froze.

He looked at Long Xiaoyuan with an impassive face. “This is your real purpose, right? Tell me. What do you want me to do?”

Long Xiaoyuan smiled and revealed his white teeth. “We like to know if you can make something for the baby to wear to ward off poison and mosquitoes.”

Liu Suifeng said, “I have to think about it. The baby is too fragile after all. There are many things that are not good for his health.”

“So, we have to ask you for the favor. You don’t need to give the cash gift. After you make it, go to the party,” Long Xiaoyuan said very naturally.

Liu Suifeng glared at Long Xiaoyuan angrily.

“Do you mean that I can’t go if I don’t fix this?”

Long Xiaoyuan said innocently, “I’m afraid that you’ll be embarrassed. I’m only thinking of you. You are welcome, really.”

“You…”

Shi Qingzhou cleared his throat and interrupted Long Xiaoyuan, lest he raged Liu Suifeng.

“Liu Suifeng, thank you,” Shi Qingzhou said.

Liu Suifeng said hastily, “It’s okay. It’ll take a while.”

“But outside…” Shi Qingzhou pointed at the outside.

“I’ll close the clinic,” Shi Qingzhou said decisively.

Long Xiaoyuan was sorry for the crowd waiting outside.

The crowd was indignant when the guards came out to inform them that Liu Suifeng was closing the clinic for the day. However, they could do nothing about it.

The doctor of this clinic went his own way, and he was extremely arrogant.

Indignant? Fine, don’t come to the clinic. Liu Suifeng didn’t care about it.

He just stopped seeing patients as he pleased.

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou waited in the room.
