Refuse to trample on the pride of heaven

Chapter 308: Taking Care of a Baby (2)

Looking at the little deer Wen Sheng who was wrapped in a small blanket, with his eyes exposed and secretly glancing at him curiously, Liu Jiqian suddenly understood what was so adorable about the child.

Most of the children's clothes were bright. Liu Jiqian changed Xiaolu Wensheng into an apricot-yellow satin embroidered robe, and tied a small bun in his hair, which he tied with a headband. He looked like a fairy boy in the mural, very endearing.

Liu Jiqian can’t cook, but he can still try simple dishes.

Eating sour red lotus root was quite famous in ancient times. Liu Jiqian had traveled in the mortal world and knew how to make it.

Wash and peel the fresh lotus root, cut into thin slices, then blanch it in hot water and set aside.

The advantage of cultivating immortals is that there are ways to obtain vegetables and fruits of all seasons. This time is obviously not the time for bayberries to bear fruit, but Liu Jiqian was still able to find them.

Wash the fresh bayberry and put it into a stone mortar to make a puree. Then filter out the red juice and add a small amount of honey or sucrose to adjust the sweetness and sourness. Soak the prepared lotus root slices in the bayberry juice for a few hours before eating.

In summer, you can also put it in well water to chill it or add ice to eat. It tastes sweet and sour, fresh and tender, refreshing. It also has the effect of clearing away heat, promoting salivation, relieving heat and stimulating appetite.

(Sour red lotus root, a delicacy from the Song Dynasty, a summer snack)

Children have no resistance to such sweet and sour things. Xiao Lu Wen Sheng's paws and mouth turned red from eating the bayberry juice, but he was completely unaware.

His cheeks were bulging, and he could hardly hold back his food, but he was reluctant to stop talking and kept praising incoherently.

"Qianqian, you are so awesome!"

Liu Jiqian's eyes couldn't help but become loving. He carefully took out a handkerchief to wipe the cub's hands and told the cub to eat slowly - she looked like an old mother taking care of her baby.

After eating, Xiaolu Wensheng could no longer sit still and was eager to do something.

Obviously, there was nothing in the house suitable for children, for fear that Xiaolu Wensheng might bump into something while jumping around.

After thinking about it, Liu Jiqian found a toy he played with when he was a child. It was a jade ball with more than ten layers, but each layer was hollow. When the child unbuttoned one layer, the next layer would be revealed. When successful, the pattern on the original layer would move as if it were alive. It was very beautiful and had a sophisticated mechanism, so it was called the Thousand Machine Ball.

Xiaolu Wensheng had never seen such a luxurious and high-end toy, so he immediately took it and started to play with it. Liu Jiqian held him on his lap and taught him how to play. The warm light coming in from the window enveloped them, creating a quiet and peaceful atmosphere for the two of them.

While reading a book and handling some affairs, the cub in his arms was soft, sturdy and heavy. He lowered his head and played with toys obediently. He was so cute no matter how you looked at him. Liu Jiqian actually felt that the years were getting better.

When the moon rose above the branches and the room became dark, Liu Jiqian, who had just finished the work in his hands, reacted and saw that the cub, who had been sitting obediently in his arms, had fallen asleep with his arms and legs spread out, with the Thousand Machine Ball in his hand, and it was unlikely to fall.

As if they had received some kind of response, some of the chubby cubs hummed and hawed, trying to show their presence and to call back Liu Jiqian's soul which had drifted away.

"Brother will carry you to bed." Liu Jiqian spoke softly, calling himself "brother" very naturally.

Xiaolu Wensheng pouted. Although she was dazed, she still had something she wanted to stick to: "Brush your teeth and wash your face first, then apply perfume and go to bed!"

Fortunately, Liu Jiqian had a toothbrush and wanted to help, but our cub said that he was already a three-year-old kid. In addition to brushing his teeth and washing his face, he could also dress himself, so he might have done it. So he strongly requested to do it himself.

Although Xiaolu Wensheng dozed off as he tilted his head while brushing his teeth, as if the pause button had been pressed, he still managed to finish brushing his teeth with some effort. Liu Jiqian found it very funny and openly recorded it with his photo stone.

However, the cub's little hands were kneading the towel in the basin, and suddenly there was no movement. Liu Jiqian was stunned for a moment, lowered his head slightly, and saw that the other party had taken this opportunity to close his eyes and whispered for a while.

Liu Jiqian laughed in silence, and diligently wiped the face of the confused cub and picked him up. The other party spoke vaguely, but he did not forget the next steps.

"Rubbing it in fragrant fragrance!"

Liu Jiqian was very patient: "Okay, rub the scent for us."

I wanted to hold the baby on the bed and rub "scent" on him, but the baby in my arms was obviously not happy. He stared at his little feet, trying to prevent the adults from just coaxing him.

"Apply some perfume first!" He wants to be a handsome boy when he grows up!

Liu Jiqian had already accepted that Lu Wensheng was a restless child when he was young, and answered fluently: "Okay, apply perfume first."

Our Willow Peacock has no shortage of such "fragrances". Not to mention "fragrant" facial creams, we also have incense and spices. In short, there is no shortage of elegant things.

After applying ointment on the baby's chubby face and kneading it with some personal thoughts, Liu Jiqian looked at the baby sitting on the bed, closing his eyes and smacking his lips - he obviously wanted to sleep, but he still had to sit on the bed with his little body swaying, and he felt soft-hearted.

"Just lie down and sleep."

Xiaolu Wensheng said "Hum", "Brother, hold me and let's sleep together." Then, he stretched out his chubby little hands and made a gesture to ask for a hug.

Our little deer Wen Sheng is actually a clingy kid to adults with good senses.

Liu Jiqian, who had originally planned to go to the compartment after coaxing little deer Wen Sheng to sleep, felt as if he had received a burst of joy. He asked the baby "Really?" but honestly took off his outer robe.

Xiaolu Wensheng was actually quite sleepy, and when he saw his handsome brother agreed to lie down, he immediately plopped down on the bed, sticking out his chubby little butt, and moved closer to him, looking somewhat similar to the little puppet he had been before.

"Brother smells sweet, baby likes it~" Xiaolu Wensheng stuffed his little head into the other's arms, making a muffled voice and purring sound, which really looked a bit like the posture of a cat.

Liu Jiqian had long felt that his lover's temperament and certain things could reveal his raccoon-like nature. It seemed that he had been like this since childhood - curious, lively, and loved to act like a spoiled child...

Rubbing the child's furry hair, Liu Jiqian couldn't help but chuckle: "Really? You like that kind of scent the most?"

"Flower!"

Floral scent? He had quite a few kinds of incense there. He took the cub's words to heart and began to think.

The system sneered. It didn't speak much during this period for fear that the cub would be frightened. However, it actually saw a lot of things. When it saw Liu Jiqian secretly asking about its preferences, it cursed Liu Jiqian in its heart for being a scheming boy - you don't even forget to coax and deceive such a young cub, you kid! If the little deer can't remember it by then, it will go and complain!

(Would it be too much for the cubs?)
