Everyone in my harem is talented

Chapter 230 Grandma

"Mingjin, do you have any interesting stories to tell mother about the palace today?"

Seeing Yueya leading the third prince Qin Mingjin, who was returning from school, across the threshold of the palace, Li Xihua greeted them with a smile on her face.

Yueya tacitly let go of Qin Mingjin's hand and immediately stepped aside.

Li Xihua opened his arms and picked up Qin Mingjin, rubbing his neck with his head.

"Yeah, it still has a dry, milky scent. You didn't go out for a run with your brothers today. If you were sweaty, your mother wouldn't be happy to be close to you."

"Mother, I am grown up now. Please don't pick me up suddenly like this. What if I fall?"

Qin Mingjin was afraid of falling, so he didn't dare to struggle.

He was held in Li Xihua's arms like a dried, straight salted fish. He knew that his mother could only hold him for a while. After a while, his mother would either be too tired or think he was too heavy and would put him down.

I will never hold him in my arms again like I did when I took him to the Imperial Gardens when he was a child.

But is he really fat and heavy? My father likes to pick him up and weigh him, and he says he is solid and sturdy.

The third prince Qin Mingjin lowered his head and quietly pinched his belly, then took a deep breath and retracted his belly.

"Is your Highness the Third Prince more worried about your mother falling, or more afraid of yourself falling?"

"It's all the same!"

Qin Mingjin refused to answer such a question that required a choice. As soon as his feet touched the ground, he ran to the dining hall, asked the palace servants to wash his hands, carry him to the table, and serve him food.

"Mother, I am hungry, please come quickly."

"You don't want your mother to hold you, but you're waiting for her to feed you?"

"It is clearly my duty as a filial son to wait until my mother sits down before I start eating." Qin Mingjin said aggrievedly.

"is it?"

Qin Mingjin immediately opened his round eyes and nodded sincerely.

"Your Highness the Third Prince is so filial. Please eat." Li Xihua raised his hand, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a vegetable and put it in Qin Mingjin's bowl and said.

Li Xihua put down his bowl and chopsticks after eating a few bites. He stared at Qin Mingjin, who was eating with his cheeks puffed up, with burning eyes and sighed.

Qin Mingjin raised his head and looked at Li Xihua in confusion. His cheeks were puffy and he was still chewing. After he swallowed all the food in his mouth and drank a mouthful of fish soup, he asked:

"Why don't you eat, mother? Try this fish, it's delicious." Qin Mingjin signaled to the palace servant who was serving the food to put the boneless fish into Li Xihua's bowl.

Li Xihua didn't say anything and sighed again.

"Mother, if you don't eat, I will." Seeing that Li Xihua didn't answer, Qin Mingjin smiled with curved eyebrows. His hands and mouth kept moving, and he continued to eat and drink.

Li Xihua was so angry when she saw Qin Mingjin's heartless behavior that her eyebrows raised.

"Your Highness the Third Prince, why don't you ask your mother why she sighed? You just keep eating with such a happy look on your face. Has your mother ever missed out on your food?"

"Mother, you will say it when you want to. If you don't eat now, you will be hungry at night. Mother, you are not someone who will wrong yourself. You will definitely ask the kitchen to prepare food for you. Then I can get up and have a midnight snack."

Yueya stood aside. She covered her mouth and burst out laughing.

"Eat, eat, eat. All you know is to eat." Li Xihua was almost angry to the point of falling over. While scolding Qin Mingjin, she also took the time to glare at the senior palace maid Yueya who laughed out loud.

"Mother, please tell me whatever you want to say. I'm listening." Qin Mingjin sipped the fish soup in small sips and blew gently. He felt very comfortable watching the ripples on the milky white fish soup in the bowl.

"Your Highness the Third Prince, your mother misses your grandmother. Your mother is just a little beauty and cannot order your grandmother to come to the palace to meet her, so..." Li Xihua said pitifully.

"So...what? I have no way to order my grandmother to come to the palace to accompany you? Mother, you are making things difficult for me."

"I'm asking you to do me a small favor. I haven't even asked you yet, but you're already making excuses. I don't want your child anymore."

"Mother, why don't you give me some brothers and sisters? Even if father doesn't love you very much, you can still be promoted to the position of concubine with your children!"

Qin Mingjin's eyes became brighter as he spoke.

"Mother, didn't you say that when you gave birth to me, my grandmother came to the palace to accompany you? I saw that when other concubines gave birth to brothers and sisters, they would also summon their mothers to the palace to accompany them. You don't have to wait until you are promoted to the position of concubine. As long as you are pregnant with a brother or sister, your grandmother can come to the palace to accompany you."

Li Xihua rolled his eyes and said, "You are indeed my mother's biological son. You and my mother are so in tune with each other."

"Mother, you also think my idea is good!" Qin Mingjin said proudly with a smile on his face.

"What mother wants to talk about is the matter of accompanying the birth."
