Chapter 139 The Buddha Brother and the Assassin Brother 6
As is his character, Zhao Zhao can't get angry at anyone or anything, especially his blood-related younger brother, whose temper is unbelievably good.
The father and mother carried the two of them to meet the guests. Minmin was very active and his mother couldn't hold him, so his father carried him. Zhaozhao, on the other hand, stayed quietly in his mother's arms, greeting people as soon as he was told, and was very well-behaved.
Anyway, Su Tangyue had been carrying him the whole way, and her heart had melted. "My darling, are you bored?" she asked Zhao Zhao in a low voice, worried that the child might be bored, and thoughtfully asked him what he wanted.
Zhao Zhao said gently, "Nowhere is boring when I'm with my mother."
A single sentence made Su Tangyue extremely happy. She hugged the cub tightly in her arms again and took him to meet the guests.
The magnificent mansion was adorned with red ribbons and lanterns, and guests were toasting each other, with congratulatory greetings echoing throughout, creating a festive and joyful atmosphere.
The mansion was filled with banquet tables, and Su Tangyue moved among them, boasting to everyone she met how obedient her son was, and everyone around her echoed her sentiments.
Some genuinely thought Zhao Zhao was cute and well-behaved, some praised her out of respect for the He family, and some flattered her to ask for their help.
Zhao Zhao saw all this, but she just stayed obediently in her mother's arms.
Soon, an important part of the first birthday celebration came – the "grasping ceremony".
In the center of the festively decorated main hall, a huge red silk cloth was placed, on which were displayed various items such as small knives, spears, swords, books, silver treasures, paper, ink, and even Buddhist beads, which filled a large space.
It is said that on the day of the baby's first birthday celebration, whatever item on the red silk the baby picks up will determine whether the baby will do that job in the future. Although there is no concrete evidence, people firmly believe in this.
Therefore, they also pay special attention to the objects that the children grab.
After He Shaoyan and Su Tangyue placed the two children on the red silk, a dense crowd gathered around them, all eager to see what the twins from the richest family, the He family, would catch.
He Yunmin was not afraid of strangers at all. After gaining freedom of movement, she crawled toward Zhao Zhao as if no one was around, her little hands tightly gripping the hem of Zhao Zhao's clothes.
People around them jeered, "Young Master has kidnapped your eldest son, hahaha."
Others chimed in, and then a chorus of cheers erupted. He Yunmin seemed to understand, gripping his hand even tighter and smiling even more broadly.
That year, amidst the laughter of the crowd, He Yunmin did not let go of Zhao Zhao's hand, just as many years later, when facing He Yunmin who was condemned by thousands, Zhao Zhao did not let go of his hand either. The cycle of cause and effect is probably just like this.
Seeing this, He Shaoyan found it amusing, squatted down and gently released his youngest son's hand, "Minmin, be good, let go of your brother."
"See these things in front of you? Take whatever you like."
He Yunmin released his grip, and upon hearing this, he stepped forward, past the writing brushes, inkstones, gold and silver treasures, and precisely picked up a delicate little silver sword. Then, he cheerfully raised the sword in his hand and looked at Zhao Zhao with a joyful gaze.
The surrounding crowd fell silent for a moment, but then some people flattered them with kind words. He Shaoyan and Su Tangyue's expressions did not change; as long as their son was happy, that was all that mattered.
Seeing that Zhao Zhao didn't move, He Yunmin urged, "Brother, come quickly, let's choose a toy."
With a swift movement of his foot, he kicked some unknown object in front of Zhao Zhao. Upon seeing this, He Shaoyan's usually smiling face stiffened slightly. He quickly stepped forward to try and move it away, but Zhao Zhao was a step ahead of him and caught it in her hand.
