Shen Xi and Li Yuan were new to raising children, but Shangguan Yanqiu and Fu Hanting did not have to worry about anything else. They focused on raising the children and lived a leisurely life of raising grandchildren and flowers.
Song Wenye's Yu Song was often left to the two of them. The two of them were good-tempered and patient. They took good care of the children and liked them very much.
Time passed by quickly. The children had learned to crawl, walk, run, and babble. They had already reached the age where they could follow behind their parents like little tails.
Li Mianmian, who loved to cry, grew up and got rid of his habit of crying. Every time someone said that he loved to cry when he was young, he would get angry.
Tang Tang, on the other hand, was brought up by her two brothers, Mianmian and Yu Song. She turned from an obedient little princess to a wild girl. She climbed mountains, climbed trees, went down rivers, and caught fish and bugs. There was nothing she did not dare to do. She was not afraid of anything.
Yesterday, when they were playing hide-and-seek, she hid in the bushes and twisted her long hair into a ball. She could not even comb it. In the end, Shen Xi was so angry that she took a pair of scissors and cut her hair.
Li Yuan had always been on his wife's side. No matter what she did, he supported her and helped to clean up the mess. At least he managed to cut the little girl's messy hair into a buzz cut.
When Shangguan Yanqiu and Fu Hanting came back, they were very distressed. They kept scolding Shen Xi. It was not easy for her to grow out her hair, but she cut it just like that.
Yu Song and Li Mianmian thought about it for a long time because their sister's hair was cut. They promised that they would protect their sister well in the future and that such a thing would never happen again.
In the end, the happiest person was Tang Tang. She ran around with a buzz cut to show off to everyone, as if she had obtained a great honor.
Shen Xi did not know whether to laugh or cry. She said that she could not have this child anymore.
Li Yuan comforted her. He said that girls should be like Tang Tang, so that they would not be bullied in the future. Children should be allowed to play as they please. Childhood was just a few years.
At Tang Tang and Mianmian's second birthday party, Fu Qingli planned a marriage proposal. Lu Li finally nodded and agreed. The two of them finally got married.
The wedding was set for half a year later.
The wedding venue was set at the castle by the sea.
Shen Xi and the others went there a week earlier to familiarize themselves with the environment. Actually, they were going there for a vacation.
After a week of fun, it was finally the grand wedding. It was even more lively than Shen Xi's wedding. Flowers, beautiful scenery, blessings. It was a dreamy scene everywhere.
Their flower girls were Tang Tang and Mianmian. The two of them had just turned two years old. They were so cute that they looked like they were carved from jade. They added a bit of liveliness to the wedding.
Shen Xi hugged Lu Guoguo while Li Yuan hugged Lu Zhen. The two of them looked at Fu Qingli and Lu Li exchanging wedding rings and saying their vows. They thought back to the scene when they got married.
Before they knew it, three years had passed. Their baby was already two years old and could be someone's flower girl. They were immersed in happiness and did not realize that time had passed so quickly.
Li Yuan looked at his wife standing next to him. His eyes were filled with love as he held her hand.
Shen Xi went over. "Brother, it's so fast."
Time passed really quickly. She felt that her marriage with her brother was just yesterday. The memory was so clear. She could even remember the throbbing of that moment clearly.
"Mhm." Li Yuan responded in a low voice happily. He interlocked his fingers with hers and felt her warmth. His heart was full of happiness.

After the wedding, Shen Xi sneaked to the beach with the kids. She took some food and found a place to sit down on a carpet.
The endless white beach and the blue seawater were as beautiful as a painting.
Tang Tang's favorite fruit was strawberries. She was very picky and only ate the red tips of the strawberries.
She learned this habit from Shen Xi. When she ate strawberries, she only ate the tips. As a result, Tang Tang and Mianmian also developed this habit.
The wind by the sea was very comfortable. Especially in the evening, the temperature dropped. The sun from the west dyed the sea a warm orange color. It was beautiful. It was the perfect time to go out and play.
This was a private beach. Other than the few of them, there was no one else.
After Song Wen realized that they were gone, he ran out of the door. Not long after, he saw the few people on the beach. When he walked to the side, he saw that they were eating strawberries.
Shen Xi ate the tip of the strawberry and threw the rest into the empty fruit plate. Yu Song picked it up and ate it.
Tang Tang took a small bite of the strawberry and stuffed the rest into Yu Song's mouth.
Mianmian ate the tip of the strawberry and frowned. She seriously thought about what to do next.
"Give it to me!" Yu Song was very proactive.
Mianmian hesitated for a moment and gave the rest to him.
Song Wen also didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This brat, did he have any ambition? Could it be that his family couldn't afford strawberries? If he didn't eat the strawberry butt, he could just throw it away!
Yu Song felt the gaze from his mother. He ate and mumbled, "Mom, I like it. Strawberry butt is the best."
After saying that, he secretly looked at Tang Tang.
Song Wen also pointed at him without saying anything. He sat beside Shen Xi and teased, "See? My son likes to eat strawberry butt. "
After saying that, she also took a bite of a strawberry and directly stuffed the rest into Yu Song's mouth. "If you like it, eat more. It's all yours."
Yu Song nodded obediently. "Okay."
Song Wen also gritted his teeth. This little fool can't even hear the good words.
Shen Xi laughed softly.
"What are you laughing at?" Song Wen also lowered his voice and laughed. "You guys are all taking advantage of my Tang Tang."
Her son, since young, always took everything that Tang Tang didn't eat or left over. He cared about Tang Tang more than anyone else.
Shen Xi also smiled and said, "Your son will definitely be a good husband in the future."
From his words and actions, it could be seen that his EQ and IQ were extremely high. He was attentive, knew how to take care of others, and also knew how to take care of others' feelings. At such a young age, he was already an amazing person.
Song Wen also said, "He's also single-minded. Have you ever seen him treat any girl other than Tang Tang so well?"
Shen Xi turned her head, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.
The three little guys who were eating strawberries next to them looked at the two of them at the same time. Not knowing what they were smiling about, they also smiled.
Not far away, Li Yuan and Yu Yuanxi walked side by side towards them.
The setting sun, the sea, the woman and the child sitting by the beach, and the doting man walking towards them formed a happy silhouette that would last forever.
