307 Can I Go to Grandpa’s Lake to Take a Bath?

At night, the moon was bright.

Gu Nuo’er and her family finished their meal happily. During the meal, they made the Grace Defender Duke laugh loudly.

In the end, the old man happily drank a jar of wine. By the time he finished eating, he was already drunk.

Old Madam Qiao smiled kindly. “This old man isn’t taking care of himself despite his age.”

Qiao Zijin and another attendant helped to help the Grace Defender Duke back to his room.

In Noble Consort Qiao’s arms, Gu Nuo’er looked up and said softly, “Grandma~ Don’t say that of Grandpa~ He’s just too happy to see Baby Nuo!”

Everyone chuckled. Old Madam Qiao said, “The child even knows how to feel sorry for him.”

Noble Consort Qiao carried Gu Nuo’er and held her small hand. “Baby Nuo, tell Grandmother, Uncle, Aunt, and your cousin that we’re going to sleep. Mother is going to bring you back to sleep.”

The child waved her chubby hand obediently.

However, she struggled and wanted Noble Consort Qiao to carry her to Yan Qimeng’s side.

Gu Nuo’er covered her mouth with her small hand and whispered in Yan Qimeng’s ear, “Aunt, let me tell you! Cousin went to buy candy with Baby Nuo today and a young lady took fancy to him. She even gave him a peach blossom!”

Yan Qimeng was slightly surprised.

Ever since Qiao Xiulis leg was injured, he was unwilling to go to crowded places and rarely went to the streets and marketplace.

He was actually willing to bring Little Nuo’er along this time?

There was nothing happier for Yan Qimeng other than seeing her biological son gradually opening up.

She smiled happily and said, “Nuo’er is really amazing. While you’re around, can Aunt ask you to spend more time with your cousin?”

Gu Nuo’er patted her chest. “Aunt, leave it to me!”

Then, Noble Consort Qiao carried Gu Nuo’er back to their courtyard.

The place they were staying in now was still the same courtyard Noble Consort Qiao stayed in before she got married.

The building had a total of two floors. There was also a small pond in the courtyard that was connected to the small lake in the residence.

Under the sparkling light, the light gauze hanging down from the ceiling fluttered, looking very beautiful.

Wanyin and Wanxuan went in first to light the lamps and then boil water.

Gu Nuo’er crawled around in the bathtub, emerging from the water from time to time and spitting out a few water bubbles.

When Noble Consort Qiao saw this, she smiled. “Kid, you’re too naughty. Why are you still spitting water at Mother?”

The child mumbled with her pink lips, “Because Baby Nuo wants to bathe with Mother!”

Noble Consort Qiao pretended to be regretful. “It’s a pity that Mother has grown up. Your bathtub is too small and Mother can’t enter~”

Gu Nuo’er thought seriously for a long time.

Then, she asked innocently, “Mother, when Baby Nuo is a little older, can I go to the lotus pond to take a bath? If I’m the same age as Mother, can I go to Grandpa’s lake to take a bath?”

The child’s childish words made Noble Consort Qiao, Wanyin, and Wanxuan laugh.

“Baby Nuo, you can’t go to those places. They’re all meant for small fish and prawns to swim in. The water is also very cold.”

Gu Nuo’er tilted her head and fluttered her long eyelashes, thinking about it.

She was a small fish!

However, her mother didn’t know this!

The child made a splash. “Alright then. When Baby Nuo grows up a little more, I can go to Father’s Imperial Dragon Pool!”

After Gu Nuo’er took a bath, her cheeks were like red apples, making her black eyes look even brighter and round.

After playing for a while, she felt sleepy.

The lights in the courtyard were quickly put out. Wanyin and Wanxuan took turns keeping watch during the night.

Noble Consort Qiao hugged her daughter and smelled the child’s milky fragrance. The mother and daughter gradually fell asleep.

However, not long later, Gu Nuo’er frowned.

She seemed to have heard faint crying sounds coming from afar…
