Chapter 271: Is Xiao Fu Bao Disliked? The Whole City Loves Me With Their Lives
**Chapter 271: Trying on Summer Clothes**
After a long day of playing, the group of children were finally exhausted. Suisui, too tired to move, was ready to settle down for the night, as were her brothers. It was time to get ready for bed.
The next day, Feng Xuanze and the others would have a rest day, as they needed to return to the academy either tomorrow night or the day after.
Though Suisui enjoyed spending time with her elder brother, she was tired and ready to sleep. Her elder brother, too, had been pushing her playfully for a while, and it was clear that both of them were worn out.
So, when their mother came over to ask if Suisui wanted to sleep, she obediently waved goodbye to her elder brother: "Good night, big brother."
Feng Xuanze smiled and replied, "Good night, little sister."
Feng Xuanyu squeezed over and said, "Good night, good night, little sister, good night!"
Not to be left out, Feng Xuanbin quickly joined in: "Yes, good night, little sister."
And once again, the children chattered for a while.
After parting from her brothers, Suisui soaked in a medicinal bath and then got ready for bed. She had already spent her energy for the day, and though she wanted to hear a story, she could not stay awake. Her mother gently coaxed her, and soon, Suisui was fast asleep, breathing peacefully.
The next morning was the first day of May, with clear skies and warm sunlight greeting the day.
Suisui woke up early, got dressed, and excitedly ran outside. "I’m going to find big brother!"
The young masters of the manor were also preparing to head out.
When Suisui arrived in the dining hall, her brothers were already there.
Hearing her footsteps, Feng Xuanyu eagerly turned around, calling out, "Little sister, Second Brother is here!"
His loud voice echoed through the room, shaking everyone awake. The other brothers, still half-drowsy, suddenly became more alert with his booming shout.
Today, Mr. Shen had given them the day off, so they could enjoy a full day of relaxation.
As for tomorrow, they would have to wait to see how Prince Qi arranged things, but for today, there was no need to worry.
The family gathered together and enjoyed a comfortable, joyful breakfast.
Afterward, the people from Jinxiu Workshop arrived to deliver clothes.
Prince Qi and the princess happily took Suisui to try them on.
The brothers, hearing this, all followed eagerly.
Although they knew they shouldn't watch their sister try on clothes, they were still curious to see the final result.
They couldn’t help but start to look forward to it.
Feng Xuanbin even thought that, since he was the youngest, he could squeeze into the room to see.
He promised not to look around and would cover his eyes instead.
Feng Xuanbin was confident that although he was young, he understood the proper manners.
However, he was soon grabbed by Feng Xuanyu, who pulled him back and away from the door, ensuring he had no chance to sneak in.
The clothes that arrived from Jinxiu Workshop were summer outfits, four sets in total, complete with shoes, socks, and accessories.
The summer clothes were mostly in bright, soft colors, perfect for the warm season.
Especially for children's clothing, the colors were often soft and bright, like pink, pale yellow, light blue, or soft green.
Lotus pink and moonlight colors were also delicate, but it all depended on how Jinxiu Workshop decided to coordinate them.
Of course, Jinxiu Workshop was sometimes quite bold in its designs, occasionally incorporating color-blocking techniques.
For children's clothes, color blocking made the outfits even more vibrant and lively.
Suisui's outfit today was based on moon white and pale yellow, with these two colors forming the main elements of the design.
Prince Qi looked at Suisui's clothing, nodding and shaking his head now and then.
Qi Wangfei, observing from the side, couldn’t help but quietly ask, “Isn’t it nice?”
She thought it looked quite good.
Why was he shaking his head then?
Prince Qi didn’t think the outfit was unattractive. To him, his precious daughter would look beautiful in anything—even in a sack.
When Qi Wangfei asked, Prince Qi decided to speak his mind, “I think it’s not grand enough. The fabric…”
Although Jinxiu Workshop’s fabrics were luxurious, they still didn’t match the royal family’s materials.
Qi Wangfei sighed, “The fabric from the other shipment hasn’t arrived yet. We’ll need to wait.”
At first, there weren’t enough suitable materials, so they used what the fabric store had available.
Later, Qi Wangfei had deliberately sent over some bright fabrics, and more were on the way.
But making clothes took time, so they would have to wait a bit longer.
Prince Qi wasn’t entirely satisfied.
Suisui, however, didn’t understand her father’s thoughts. She just felt that the fabric was so soft to touch, and as she twirled, it sparkled and looked beautiful!
She spun around happily.
Feng Xuanrui and Feng Xuanbin circled around her, while Feng Xuanbo, who was slimmer, couldn’t get in.
This made him angry, and he stood with his hands on his hips, sulking.
Feng Xuanwen noticed his brother was upset and immediately chuckled, calling out, “Xiao Wu, come let your brother lift you!”
And so, Feng Xuanwen lifted Feng Xuanbo with ease.
For someone with such a small frame, Feng Xuanbo was no trouble at all for Feng Xuanwen to lift with one hand, as if carrying two or three.
Though Feng Xuanbo had braced himself, he was still a little startled when lifted.
Suisui, hearing the noise, turned around and saw Feng Xuanbo being lifted by his older brother.
It was a bit startling for the younger ones!
Her eyes widened, and she quietly gasped, “Ah... Won’t Fifth Brother fall?”
Feng Xuanwen laughed heartily, “Don’t worry, I’m steady! I won’t drop him!”
Honestly, little Five wasn’t as heavy as his bow, so lifting him was no problem at all!
Feng Xuanze wasn’t fully at ease, keeping an eye on both Suisui and his younger brother, just in case Feng Xuanwen forgot and let go of Feng Xuanbo.
After all, Feng Xuanwen had done similar things in the past.
Seeing his older brother standing close by, Feng Xuanwen remembered his past antics, and he couldn’t help but laugh sheepishly.
Suisui, seeing that Feng Xuanbo was still safe, turned back and went to change into another outfit.
Soon, she returned in a peach pink outfit.
It was a gradient piece, a short jacket in moon white with embroidered peach blossoms, paired with a peach pink skirt embroidered with magnolia flowers. As she spun around, the magnolia flowers on the skirt seemed to bloom instantly, creating a striking visual impact.
Feng Xuanrui immediately liked it, clapping his hands and exclaiming, “Sister looks so pretty, she’s the best looking!”
Prince Qi also approved of the outfit’s colors, embroidery, and fabric, nodding as he said, “This looks great, it’s perfect. Go on, spin around, you look even better now.”
Qi Wangfei also liked it.
When the ruler is pleased, rewards are sure to follow.
As a result, the people from Jinxiu Workshop not only received another batch of orders but also left with some reward money.
After trying on clothes all morning, Suisui ended up wearing the moon white and peach pink new skirt.
The weather was warm, so it was perfect for wearing this outfit.
Once the clothes were changed, the day was still early, and Prince Qi, with a wave of his hand, decided to take the children to the estate: “Let’s go, let’s go, we’re going to slaughter sheep!”
