Chapter 273 Couple’s Conversation
The next morning, it was bright and clear.
Xiaotuanzi, who had been sleeping soundly all night, opened his sleepy eyes.
After waking up in bed, he started to turn over and get up, being lively and active.
As soon as the little body stood still in the cradle, a white wolf tail wrapped around him.
"Liang...? Liang! Yiwu... plop."
The white wolf beside the cradle didn't know what he was talking about, so he could only use his wolf tail to stabilize the baby's body, and said in a gentle tone: "Brother Yu, be good, stay in the cradle for a while, mother."
Daddy and I came over soon. You can’t crawl around by yourself. If you fall, you will bleed and be in pain for several days.”
Since the birth of little Song Yu, all the creatures in the villa have learned words to coax the child.
He became more and more proficient in using various repeated words and modal particles, and even his way of speaking became much childish.
The majestic and solemn Divine Beast Lord at the beginning was no exception. He willingly became Xiaotuanzi's exclusive nanny. He was always with her whether she was sleeping or going out. Her ability to take care of children was not even inferior to that of puppet maids such as Liuli and Biyun.
Xiaotuanzi also got used to the care of the white wolf, and he stayed in the cradle to entertain himself obediently.
Occasionally I would stand up and stretch my little hands and feet. When I was tired, I would sit down and pull out the pillows and quilts.
Just when the little baby was bored and began to growl with hunger, two slender figures suddenly appeared in the bedroom.
The little dumpling who didn't understand why was startled, but then he jumped up and down happily.
"Dad! Daddy! Oh! Cool! Cool—!"
The white wolf on the side looked meaningfully at the unscrupulous parents who had forgotten their cubs, and looked at Yu Yalan, who was still in the mood for spring, with a blush on her face.
The embarrassed woman blushed with shame and couldn't help but turn her head and glare at her husband.
It was all because of this guy's lack of restraint, and he didn't care whether there was enough time. She didn't get out of bed for eight days. If it hadn't been for the help of spiritual spring water and recovery fruit, she might not be able to get up and move around normally now.
The proud Song Xi stepped forward and picked up his son, coaxing him gently while taking him to the bathroom to wash up.
Yu Yalan was tidying up the bed and sundries in the bedroom, and complained softly: "I told you to come out early, but it took so long to wait until now. Yu'er must be hungry, otherwise he wouldn't be able to wake up.
So anxious."
Song Xi gently helped her son wash his face and mouth, and responded calmly: "My husband knows that he was wrong, and he won't dare to delay it for so long next time. Yu'er probably won't blame his father, right?"
Xiaotuanzi seemed to understand, but he still nodded appreciatively and gave a not quite standard "yes".
Song Xi made him laugh out loud, hugging his son and touching his cheek happily.
"My good son, your parents are late just to give you a little sister. Are you hungry after waiting too long? We will eat egg custard in a while, and then daddy will take you out to play."
Xiaotuanzi still doesn't know what kind of creature his sister is, but he is already very excited just hearing about the egg custard and playing with her.
Rouwowo's little hands clapped happily a few times, seeming to be very satisfied with this arrangement.
Song Xi was not in a hurry to go out, but followed his wife in a sticky manner.
He would follow Yu Yalan wherever she was tidying up, and occasionally help carry some heavier objects.
"You'd better sit down and wait for me. It's inconvenient to hold the baby. It's easy to bump into the baby when you turn around. Then the whole family will fall into a pile."
Yu Yalan pushed him to the table, stuffed a small toy into each of the father and son, and then began to pack Song Xi's luggage, asking some trivial questions.
"Why are the armor and clothes you wore yesterday so dirty? There is no place to wash in Longxi? Or are you too busy with official duties and don't have time to wash them?"
She looked carefully at every corner with her slender fingers. She saw that the armor and clothes were less damaged than expected, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
It seems that the war in the past six months has been relatively easy, otherwise it would not be just this little wear and tear.
The loss of the amulet was not too serious, indicating that no too difficult enemies appeared.
What she was most worried about was that Song Xi was injured and suffering outside. In order to prevent herself from worrying too much, she would hide it or show off her strength. Now it seems that there is nothing wrong with her. It is the greatest blessing to be able to return safely.
Song Xi naturally saw his wife's little gesture, and felt warmly moved in his heart.
Sitting at the table, I made a bottle of milk for my son. Seeing that he was eating deliciously, I explained to my wife: "The water shortage in Longxi is worse than that in Qinxi. The drought in the past two years has caused too much damage. Several times
Not even the lakes have been restored, so people have to save water, so I don’t wash my clothes with water much, and I only bathe once every five days.”
"Originally I thought it would be good to change my clothes and armor regularly, but then I was too busy and forgot about it. Fortunately, the battle was easy and I didn't suffer any injuries, so the battle with Duke Lu became more intense."
Yu Yalan asked people to clean the armor and all the dirty clothes they brought back, and then began to count the consumption of the storage ring.
Before the expedition, the couple did not expect that the war would last for half a year, so some logistical reserves were not in place.
Corresponding provisions, weapons and equipment could be replenished later, but some cooked food could not be delivered to the battlefield in time.
Both husband and wife forgot about this matter because they were too busy. Song Xi didn't write a letter to urge her, so naturally she couldn't remember this matter.
Song Xi lost a lot of money because of this, because the conditions in Longxi were too poor to make any decent meals.
Marchers value the speed of their troops and only require the food to be cooked.
The wars were frequent and he couldn't demand too much. He could only endure his appetite and eat some makeshift military rations.
"Now that Northwest Dading is settled, the Tatars and Xirong are no longer threats. Do you have any other plans in the future? Do Uncle Xiong and the others have any suggestions?"
Song Xi wiped his son's saliva with a brocade handkerchief, shook his head and said: "Not yet, let's see what happens in the court first. The death of the old emperor is just around the corner, but the princes have not yet decided the winner.
Well. Let’s wait until the new emperor ascends the throne to take a look at the situation in the capital. Then we can just take advantage of the situation. With the capabilities of the Wu family, we shouldn’t be able to touch us.”
After finishing cleaning up, Yu Yalan came over, with a bit of worry on her beautiful face.
"Then the He family and the Zheng family..."
Song Xi pulled up her catkins and calmly comforted her: "I have sent people to the capital for secret deployment. Neither the second prince nor the fifth prince can even think of ascending the throne! The successor chosen by the Dog Emperor is pretty good. If the situation is not good,
