Once she climbed beside Su Yi Jing, Su Yixing stood up, and first cheerfully called out "Brother, Brother" twice before taking small steps upwards together with Su Yi Jing.
An Jing and Xiao Changyi were both startled in their hearts. No one had taught her this; their second son knew by instinct to come down and accompany his brother on the climb.
Seeing his second brother go to join his big brother, An Yiqing stopped his mockery and quickly climbed down, taking tiny steps to ascend alongside his big brother and second brother.
When An Yiyun saw his third brother also go down, he wanted to follow even though he had just sat down to rest, but Xiao Changyi stopped him.
"Yun Er, be good. You're too tired today, rest and join your brothers another time," Xiao Changyi said gently but with concern for his youngest son. His youngest was frail and had been active enough for the day; he worried that his little one couldn't handle any more and emphasized the importance of a good rest.
