Chapter 216
"Mother, the cakes were given to me by my brother."
Wei Xuan ran over when he saw Ye Xi, holding up the half-eaten cake in his little hand to show Ye Xi. After being picked up by Ye Xi, he seemed to want Ye Xi to eat it.
"Mom doesn't want to eat it, so you eat it."
Ye Xi tidied up his clothes, then turned around and asked Xia Mu beside him: "Did the children have a proper meal?"
"Not yet. The kitchen is preparing it and the master is still in the study."
Because he has to take care of Wei Xuan, Xia Mu now stays at home most of the time to take care of the child.
Now, the one who goes out with Ye Xi is Dongju, and she knows that she can’t get rid of Dongju.
Because Wei would never allow her to leave Dongju's sight.
"Then I'll go change my clothes first. When the kitchen is ready, let the children go over to eat."
Ye Xi put Xuan'er down, then tapped his little nose and said:
"Mom, go change your clothes first, and then follow Aunt Xia Mu's instructions to have dinner. Do you hear me?"
"I heard it." Wei Xuan replied in a baby voice.
When Wei Ye heard Wei Xuan call Ye Xi "Mom", he looked over again, but he still didn't say anything.
When Ye Xi finished cleaning up and came out to eat, she found Wei Jue was already sitting at the table with the child waiting for her.
The two children were standing on Wei Jue's left and right, while Ah Qi was taken away by the servants to have dinner.
It is also one of the rules that servants do not eat at the same table with their masters.
Ye Xi came and sat next to Wei Xuan. When she held Wei Xuan on her lap, Wei Jue also held Wei Ye on his lap.
And he moved his seat and sat next to Ye Xi.
"Mother." Wei Xuan called out, and Ye Xi responded.
"Ye'er, call me aunt." Wei Jue stared at Ye Xi and Wei Ye and suddenly said this.
Ye Xi's body stiffened for a moment, then he glanced at Wei Jue.
Their eyes met, and there was a moment of awkwardness.
Ye Xi didn't know how to react. If she accepted this title, it would be equivalent to admitting that she was a concubine.
But if I don’t agree, how can I explain to my child how to address her?
"Aunt." Wei Ye called out without hesitation after hearing what his father said.
"Just call me Auntie." Ye Xi felt that this was the best name.
Wei Jue's eyes dimmed, but there was a hint of anger in his gaze as he looked at Ye Xi.
He restrained himself and did not lose his temper on the spot, after all, there were children around.
"Auntie." Wei Ye was very well-behaved.
"I'll feed Ye'er, you take care of Xuan'er."
After saying that, Wei Jue picked up the chopsticks and fed Wei Ye.
Ye Xi also started to look after Wei Xuan. Wei Xuan was very restless during meals because Wei Ye was around.
While eating, he wanted to play with his brother and his movements became more and more restless.
Ye Xi blamed Wei Xuan somewhat unhappily and said:
"Xuan'er, be good and eat your meal first. If you keep making such a fuss, your brother won't be able to eat his meal properly. Look how good your brother is!"
After being criticized, Wei Xuan behaved himself for a while and ate his meal well, but his little hand still reached out to Wei Ye restlessly.
Wei Ye was very quiet and well-behaved while eating.
Ye Xi felt that Wei Ye was truly a divine baby. If Wei Xuan were like this as well, she would have much less worries.
"It's okay for the child to be noisy. Don't always talk about him."
Wei Jue didn't quite agree with Ye Xi's approach, but Ye Xi ignored him. It was none of his business how she taught the child.
He has no idea how hard it is to raise a child. He just comes back from court to play with his daughter for a while, so how can he know how difficult it is to raise a child.
After feeding the child, Ye Xi asked the servants to take the child out to play while she and Wei Jue continued to eat.
Wei Jue originally wanted to mention to her about moving to the Duke's Mansion, but after what happened just now, he felt that there was no need to ask, so as to avoid another quarrel between the two.
As he was eating, he suddenly started to stare at Ye Xi's every move.
He just didn't understand, after so many years, what was the heart of the woman in front of him made of.
Even after having a child, she usually acts like she follows him wholeheartedly, but she has not given up on the issue of status.
Do you really intend to follow him without any status for the rest of your life?
What about Wei Xuan's future? Xuan'er couldn't even get the status of a bastard of the Duke's Mansion.
