CHAPTER 268: CHAPTER 268: ZHI’ER TAKES YOU TO HAVE FUN!

She opened the red envelope and saw a thick stack of silver notes!

Wow!

Now I’m rich!

Bai Zhi’er seemed to have discovered an intriguing new game.

She twisted her little body and jumped down from Bai Xilie.

The little one ran over to Qingmei.

With her two little hands clasped, she shook them again and said, "Wishing you wealth, Sister Qingmei~"

Looking at Bai Zhi’er’s delicate eyebrows, large watery eyes, Qingmei smiled brightly.

She generously took out a red bag from her sleeve.

"Here you go, Your Highness, this is a blessing from your maidservant. I hope the Princess is happy every year."

Bai Zhi’er joyfully jumped up, hugged Qingmei’s neck, and gave her a sweet kiss.

"Thank you, Sister Qingmei~"

The little one turned around and ran to the little eunuch responsible for errands in Ruizhu Palace.

"Best wishes..." Bai Zhi’er started sweetly.

Before she could finish, the little eunuch made a smile that was harder than crying.

He fumbled around and pulled out a bit of silver from his sleeve.

"Your Highness, this servant is not as wealthy as Sister Qingmei! Here’s the three taels of silver I just got, all for you, just hoping that the Princess stays happy forever!"

Bai Zhi’er took it with her little hand and said, "Big Brother Little Chengzi is so kind!"

She stood on her tiptoes, planning to generously give a sweet kiss as a thank you.

However, Bai Xilie, who had been smilingly watching his obedient daughter, suddenly changed his expression dramatically upon seeing the little one about to kiss the eunuch!

"Zhi Bao!" Bai Xilie scooped up his daughter tightly in his arms with a big hand.

Bai Zhi’er’s pink little face puffed up, her mouth pouting slightly.

She almost kissed him.

The little one was carried away by her father, blinking her big eyes innocently and confused.

The little eunuch Chengzi was so frightened his legs went weak.

It was too risky!

If the Princess had kissed his face, wouldn’t the Emperor behead him?

Bai Zhi’er looked up with her watery eyes and asked in her soft voice, "Daddy, can’t I give Little Chengzi Brother a kiss?"

Bai Xilie tried to explain gently, "Zhi’er, remember, your lips can be used to kiss mom and dad, but not others, and especially should not be touched by others."

Bai Zhi’er blinked her long lashes and asked, "Not even brothers?"

"No," Bai Xilie replied almost without thinking.

Since Jing Jia wasn’t around, he had to instill a sense of self-protection in his daughter from an early age.

Boys and girls are different, and brothers are no exception.

The little one nodded as if she understood but didn’t fully grasp it.

Suddenly, she smiled sweetly, showing her little white teeth: "I know, Daddy gets mad when Zhi’er kisses others."

Bai Xilie was startled, then nodded with a smile, "You could say that."

He gently pinched her little nose twice, "Daddy would be sad too, so if Zhi Bao doesn’t want to make Daddy sad, just remember Daddy’s words, okay?"

"Okay, I’ll remember!"

He put the little one on the ground, watching her happily run and jump around the courtyard, Bai Xilie felt a sense of happiness filling his heart.

Before midnight arrives, Bai Xilie had to handle official documents for an hour.

He asked Qingmei to look after the Princess and told his daughter, "Zhi’er, wait a bit, and after Daddy comes back, we’ll stay up to celebrate the New Year together."

Bai Zhi’er was holding freshly baked rice cakes, eating them softly, her big eyes flickering like a little red bird.

"Daddy, go ahead, I’ll wait for you to come back~"

Only then Bai Xilie left at ease.

Seeing her father leave, the little one quickly took a bite of the rice cake and waved her little hand at Qingmei.

"Sister Qingmei, let’s go! Zhi’er will take you to have some fun!"
