After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

When Zhao Xiu was two and a half years old, she went to the capital with her fathers to celebrate her grandfather's birthday.

As the only sweetheart in the Gu King family of the Southwest, Xiao Xiu'er was very distressed.

Because no one wants to play with the pretty bugs with him, he hasn't made a single good friend yet.

Xiao Xiu'er was full of confidence, thinking that he would definitely make friends in the capital. However, on the morning of the second day after arriving in the capital, black tattoos appeared all over his body due to the awakening of his bloodline.

Pearl comforted her from the side, "Baby, it's okay, you're still a pretty baby even with tattoos."

The little gas cylinder inside the bed turned its back to its father and whimpered and cried. Its little voice was soft and childlike, full of grievance.

Zhao Duo came in from outside. "Xiu'er, what's wrong? Are you still crying about the totem?"

Pearl glared at her husband, trying to get him to lower his voice, but it was too late.

Hearing his father's voice, Little Gas Can cried even louder.

Zhao Duo picked up Xiao Xiu'er. The once chubby little boy was now covered in black tattoos, making him look like a gangster.

He was young and completely unfamiliar with the power of heredity, so he had no control over it, and the patterns on his skin kept changing.

"Waaah." Little Xiuer sobbed, burying her face in her father's neck, crying both sadly and earnestly.

Zhao Duo controlled the tattoo to appear on the back of his hand, saying, "Look, Daddy has one too."

Little Xiuer sobbed and wiped away her tears, "Baby is ugly, not pretty anymore."

"Who said that? Our Xiu'er is the prettiest." Zhao Duo kissed the baby's cheek.

"Don't worry, it will disappear soon." As he spoke, Zhao Duo held Xiu'er's chubby little hand, guiding him to calm down.

Little Xiu'er blinked her big, watery eyes, "Really?"

"Really, really." Pearl pinched her son's cheek. "Daddy made you some really pretty shoes, do you want to wear them?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiu'er stopped crying and said, "I'll wear it!"

After finally calming the baby down, Pearl took Xiaoxiu'er to wash up and get dressed.

The totem's appearance was unstable, and soon the tattoo on Xiaoxiu'er's body disappeared.

Wearing the shiny little shoes made by her little daddy, Xiaoxiu stopped crying and started laughing. She ran outside, showing off her shiny new shoes to everyone she met.

Yin Cheng had just woken up. The morning air was fresh, and he was stretching his muscles in the yard when he saw the little baby running very fast with his short legs.

"Grandpa!" Xiao Xiu'er rushed to Yin Cheng's feet.

"Oh, my precious little darling, come here and let Grandpa hold you." The little one is soft and fluffy, like a sweet little cake.

Little Xiu'er refused his grandfather's hug. He stretched out his short legs and asked very proudly, "Grandpa, look how shiny my shoes are!"

Yin Cheng looked down and saw that the child's shoes were exceptionally smooth, without any sharp edges, and the surface of the shoes was inlaid with a round pearl, surrounded by pink petals.

Yin Cheng exclaimed, "Wow! Whose baby has such cute shoes?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiu'er became even more proud, pouting her little lips with a smug look that made everyone's hands itch to pinch her chubby cheeks.

Lin Nian came over when he heard Xiao Xiu'er's voice. He asked in surprise, "Baby, why are you up so early? Are you hungry?"

Little Xiu'er shook her head, stretched out her short legs, and said, "Auntie, look at baby's new shoes!"

Lin Nian: "Wow! So beautiful!"

Little Xiu'er was very satisfied and delighted.

"Wife," Yin Cheng pinched Xiao Xiu'er's ankle, and exclaimed in shock, "Why doesn't our Xiao Xiu'er have ankles?"

Children are chubby, with fleshy legs and feet that go straight up and down, so it looks like they don't have ankles.

Lin Nian said helplessly, "Kids are all like that."

Yin Cheng was still shocked. "Really?"

Lin Nian nodded. Her husband could be really silly sometimes.

Little Xiu'er scratched her face, grinned, and raised her hands for a hug.

At that moment, Pearl also came over.

"Father, why are you up so early today? Are you going to the morning court?"

Yin Mo had long ago changed the time of the morning court to after dawn. As a decadent prince, Yin Cheng usually slept with his wife until the sun was high in the sky when he had nothing to do.

But today, the morning mist has not yet dissipated, and the sun has not even risen yet.

Just as Yin Cheng was about to say he wouldn't go, he heard Xiao Xiu'er say, "Morning court! Go, go!"

Yin Cheng immediately changed his tune: "Yes, we're getting ready to go."

Pearl said, "Xiu'er, stop bothering your grandpa, come here and let your little daddy hug you."

Little Xiu'er hugged Yin Cheng tightly and whimpered, "Baby wants to go too."

Yin Cheng said, "Alright, alright, Grandpa will take you there."

"Father! Don't spoil Xiu'er so much!" Pearl said. "What kind of behavior is this!"

Yin Cheng said matter-of-factly, "Our little Xiu'er just wants to go to the morning court session, not the stars in the sky."

What did this well-behaved baby do wrong?

Pearl: "..." Strange, I seem to have heard this before when I was a child...

Little Xiu'er: "Grandpa, baby wants to fly! Whoosh! Whoosh—"

Yin Cheng was completely under the little brat's thumb. "I'm just taking Xiao Xiu'er to play for a while. Nothing will happen. I'm leaving now."

Little Xiu'er perched on Yin Cheng's shoulder and waved goodbye to the people in the courtyard.

Pearl sighed, a sigh that Lin Nian was used to.

"Sweetie, let's go get breakfast. I specifically asked the kitchen to make shrimp dumplings yesterday," Lin Nian said. "Where's Xin Hui? I haven't seen him."

Pearl said, "I sent him to the cafeteria first, Little Daddy. Do you really think our Xiu'er won't be spoiled by you?"

Pearls can cause worry.

But Lin Nian thought this was worrying unnecessarily.

"You were like that when you were little, it's okay." Lin Nian patted her son's hand. "Don't worry about him."

Pearl hesitated, but when she thought of how her father would sew pink ribbons for her when she was little, she immediately felt relieved.

The little boy is so well-behaved, he can't be spoiled at all!

Meanwhile, as Yin Cheng passed by the morning market, Xiao Xiu'er smelled the delicious aroma and exclaimed, "Grandpa! I want some cake!"

Yin Cheng jumped down from the roof ridge and asked, "Which kind of cake do you want?"

Little Xiu'er carefully selected the items, then said with difficulty, "I want to try them all!"

Yin Cheng: "Okay, let's buy them all."

Little Xiu'er happily packed all the cakes into her cloth bag and then ate a piece of osmanthus milk cake.

I passed by a steamed bun shop.

"Grandpa, I want some meat buns."

"purchase!"

The steamed buns are made fresh daily with thin skins and generous fillings, and come in various flavors.

Xiao Xiuer began to choose, but Yin Cheng noticed the child next to her.

He couldn't really be called a beggar; he was just a thin, malnourished man whose clothes were ill-fitting and hung loosely on his body.

He stood in the corner, quietly staring at the steamed bun shop, seemingly lost in thought.

The owner of the steamed bun shop noticed his gaze and said, "That child is pitiful. He lives with his mother, and both his parents have passed away."

For a moment, Yin Cheng seemed to see himself in his past life.

He was like that back then, as thin as a stick, numbly and desperately watching people come and go every day.

His grandmother was still alive then and was willing to take care of him.

It was merely to keep him alive, to keep him from dying.
