Song Yuan was also absent-minded when she woke up in the morning. Before Auntie came over, she decided to ask Rong Ting about the ancient times.
Rong Ting was sitting on a chair, drinking hot milk.
Song Yuan pondered for a long time before she asked tentatively: "I remember that you were very surprised that I was an only child. Did you think I had brothers and sisters?"
"Un." Originally, Rong Ting had a rule of not talking while eating, but seeing his mother mention a topic that he was also very interested in, he put down the cup in his hand and looked at her. He hesitated and said: "This one doesn't know if this one should mention it."
When he was in the palace, he wanted to ask about everything related to his mother, but the palace was filled with his father's spies. Whether it was the grand tutor or other people, no one was willing to reveal anything related to his mother.
He was still young and couldn't leave the palace, so what he could ask about was limited.
"Say it. There are no civil or military officials here, and your father is not here. It's just the two of us. I promise I will keep it a secret." As Song Yuan spoke, she made a gesture of zipping her mouth, indicating that she would definitely keep it a secret.
Rong Ting clearly looked very excited, but he tried to restrain himself. "This one has heard that this one's uncle is the God of War. He leads soldiers like a god and has made great contributions to the Daye Dynasty."
God of War, leading soldiers …
Song Yuan couldn't help but think of the obviously sadomasochistic Mary Sue dream she had.
She felt more and more that she definitely didn't have those dreams for no reason.
"Have you seen him?"
Rong Ting shook his head, "No."
"How could …" Song Yuan was very confused, "You said that he is the God of War, then he must be very powerful. At the very least, he is a general. You also call him uncle. Your nephew has never seen his own uncle. This doesn't make sense, right?"
Rong Ting glanced at Song Yuan, wanting to say something, but hesitated.
"Is there something you haven't said?"
"This one has heard …" He paused, "This one has heard that the God of War died on the battlefield."
Song Yuan's eyes suddenly widened, and the dull pain in her heart came again.
The reason why he was called the War God was because he was already dead. It was very difficult for a living person to become a legend.
He knew that his mother had forgotten a lot of things, so when he came over this time, he tried his best to avoid talking about these topics, afraid that it would make his mother sad. Now, it seemed that he had done something wrong and should not have told his mother.
Seeing that Song Yuan was silent and in a daze, he got up and walked over to her. He reached out to hug her waist. "Imperial Mother, there's still me."
He rarely referred to himself as "I".
Song Yuan subconsciously touched his head and hummed softly. He probably hadn't recovered from his dream yet. When he suddenly heard Rong Ting say that, he was a little scared for a moment.
If all of this was true, what had she experienced in ancient times?
"I had a dream. In the dream, a young general bid farewell to me. He called me Empress, and I called him Big Brother." Song Yuan suddenly said, "He said that it was his wish to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and protect the country. I was very sad in the dream, and the man in the dragon robe was fierce to me."
Rong Ting glanced at her and tugged at her with his small hand. He comforted, "Imperial Mother, this one doesn't want you to remember the past now."
Song Yuan smiled. "Why?"
"This one doesn't want you to be unhappy." Rong Ting said softly, "It's okay if you forget this one. Imperial Mother, it's fine if you're like this now. "
"But, if I can't remember what happened, then won't the people living in my memories be sad?" Song Yuan said this with a sense of loss.
Would those people who had been forgotten by her be sad?
Perhaps the memories that made her suffer were also especially precious.
Rong Ting also didn't understand. He tugged at her again. "Imperial Mother, didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to order a cake? Are we going to invite guests today? "
Song Yuan's attention was diverted. She knew Gugu's painstaking efforts. "Yes, we're going to invite them. After we have breakfast, we'll go downstairs to invite them."
Both mother and son tacitly stopped mentioning anything related to the God of War.
Rong Ting didn't want to make Song Yuan sad. Song Yuan felt that Rong Ting didn't know much about these things, so she didn't want to ask anymore.
***
Rong Ting only invited a few friends who got along well with him on the basketball court. Song Yuan was still regretting that there wasn't a little girl.
After confirming the date of the gathering, Song Yuan took Rong Ting out to the supermarket to do some shopping.
With a child at home, many things were consumed very quickly, such as fruits and Yakult. They went to the supermarket almost once a week. Rong Ting also liked to shop in the supermarket, but he didn't like to sit in a shopping cart anymore. Ever since he saw a one-year-old baby sitting in a shopping cart, he was very repulsed by it.
"I hope you can make good friends when you arrive in Beijing." Song Yuan pushed the shopping cart in the supermarket and lowered her head to say to Rong Ting, "Children will probably be happier with other children. Speaking of which, thanks to you, I have a few more good friends now."
The mothers of those children were also very easy-going. They were a few years older than Song Yuan and were very considerate.
Gradually, she became familiar with them and learned a lot about raising children. Of course, she also knew how to get along with children of this age. This was a very valuable experience.
"Imperial Mother likes to make friends."
"Of course. Otherwise, it would be so boring." Song Yuan said to him, "I like to chat with people, but some people naturally don't like to deal with strangers. They feel more comfortable by themselves."
To invite children to their house, they definitely had to prepare snacks and fruits. Song Yuan was afraid that the little boy would feel bored, so she even went to buy puzzle games.
Song Yuan also bought the marinade for New Orleans roast wings. She had been with Rong Ting for so long, so she knew what the little boy liked to eat. Coincidentally, she also liked what they liked to eat …
When she was about to go to the self-service checkout, someone called out to her, "Yuanyuan!"
Song Yuan and Rong Ting turned their heads in unison.
Rong Ting used to be unhappy when others called him by his name. He felt that the name of the mother of the country should not be casually mentioned. Later, he got used to it because everyone here was like that.
Song Yuan was a little surprised when she saw that the person who came was Ji Junpei. After Yung Heng's enlightenment, she was naturally more at ease when facing him. Now, she only treated him as an ordinary friend. "Senior, what a coincidence."
Ji Junpei walked up and smiled, "Yes, I'm here to look at the houses. I was just wondering if I would bump into you." He raised his hand to look at the time, "It's almost time for dinner. Let's have dinner together."
"That, senior, I'm sorry, but the housekeeper has already prepared dinner." Song Yuan pointed at Rong Ting again, "The child doesn't like to eat outside. He's not used to it."
Ji Junpei had already noticed the child beside Song Yuan.
Rong Ting looked at Ji Junpei. In the past, he would be unhappy when a member of the opposite sex talked to Song Yuan. Now that he had been here for a few months, he could treat it as normal.
Ji Junpei smiled at Rong Ting, "Hello, little friend. Do you really not like to eat outside? Uncle will buy you KFC and Pizza Hut, okay? "
There were occasional exceptions. Rong Ting did not like to eat KFC, nor did he like to eat pizza.
If the housekeeper made New Orleans roast wings at home, or Song Yuan made pizza on a whim, he would like it very much. He just did not like to eat outside. He was a very unique child.
Rong Ting shook his head warily.
"I rarely take him to eat KFC." Song Yuan said, "Senior, I'm sorry. It's really inconvenient today. Another day, another day when my boyfriend comes back from a business trip, I'll treat you to a meal."
Rong Ting's ears pricked up when he heard Song Yuan say that.
There was once when he heard his mother say the same thing to a man she did not know. When he returned home, he angrily questioned his mother. His mother said that it was a tactful rejection. If others heard her say that, they would not ask her for her phone number, nor would they ask her out for a meal or a movie. This excuse was a jack of all trades.
His mother said that again. Could it be that this uncle also admired his mother?
Only when he came here did he realize that many men admired his mother!
"Okay then." Ji Junpei was not the kind of person to be shameless. Although he knew that Song Yuan did not have a boyfriend, he would not expose her in front of her. "Then do you have time in the afternoon? I'm not very familiar with this place and want to see a few more buildings."
Just as Song Yuan was about to reject him, Rong Ting suddenly shouted, "Mom, I'm hungry. I want to go back to eat!"
Ji Junpei was stunned when he heard him call Song Yuan that. He looked at Song Yuan with some surprise.
Song Yuan knew that Rong Ting was unhappy. She smiled and patted his head. "Okay, I'll be done soon."
This child would occasionally cooperate with her very well. Sometimes, when they went shopping, they would meet people who came up to them to strike up a conversation. There were some people who persisted even after she said that she had a boyfriend. At this time, Gugu would call her mother, and those people would quickly retreat in shock.
Ji Junpei was not a fool. He was very familiar with Song Yuan and did not believe that she would have such a big child.
He carefully looked at the little boy beside her and felt that his eyes and eyebrows were very similar to hers. He immediately guessed who he was.
He should be her father's child.
He had heard about her family from their mutual friends before.
Ji Junpei was not surprised that she got along so well with her half-brother. He knew that Song Yuan had always been very kind and was very popular in school.
He did not expose the little boy. After all, he was also at this age. Some younger brothers liked the older sister very much and were very hostile to the older sister's suitors. This kind of thing was not unheard of.
"Okay, Yuanyuan. Let's keep in touch next time." Ji Junpei made a phone call. He did not ask about the relationship between Song Yuan and Rong Ting, which made Song Yuan a little puzzled.
Song Yuan nodded and led Rong Ting to the self-service checkout machine.
Rong Ting turned around and saw that Ji Junpei was still looking in their direction. He glared at him fiercely. quot;
