Chapter 204 The Time of a Couple Raising a Child 1: You must be a very good father.

One Saturday morning after the wedding.

Lu Yinzhao was lying on the living room carpet, organizing the sample photos for the studio.

Bian Ji sat next to him and helped him sort the folders.

This was a rare vacation for them together; they hadn't had such a leisurely time in a long time.

Since graduating, Lu Yinzhao has been busy with his own studio, and he has also fulfilled his dream of holding a concert tour.

After getting used to such a fast pace, suddenly slowing down can feel a little strange.

But they are both happy to enjoy this kind of cozy life together occasionally.

Lu Yinzhao's original plan was to watch the preview and then go see the newly released movie with Bian Ji.

Just then, the doorbell rang urgently.

Lu Yinzhao had just stood up when he was startled by the "big commotion" that rushed in through the door.

The eldest brother, Lu Xun, was holding the hand of a beautiful little girl.

The second sister, Lu Qi, and her husband, Jing Chuan, each held a chubby baby in their arms.

The two little babies were wrapped in matching orange onesies, their faces like freshly peeled eggs.

"Urgent request!"

Lu Qi shoved the baby in her arms into Lu Yinzhao's arms, speaking rapidly.

"Your brother-in-law and I have some urgent business to attend to in R country. We'll have to trouble you and Xiao Ji to look after Zuo Zuo and You You for a couple of days. If all goes well, I can pick them up tomorrow night!"

Please, please!

Lu Yinzhao was still in a daze.

A little girl hugged his leg and exclaimed, "Uncle, Xuan'er is here too! Xuan'er hasn't seen Uncle for so long, Xuan'er missed Uncle so much!"

"Brother, this... could it also be..."

Lu Xun said apologetically, "Your sister-in-law and I suddenly had urgent work, and Mom and Dad went on vacation abroad, as you know. Third brother is nowhere to be found, and fourth brother isn't very reliable, so..."

Lu Yinzhao reached out and patted his older brother on the shoulder, "Alright, okay, I know."

"Come on! Give me the kids, give them all to me!"

Lu Yinzhao closed his eyes and silently made a quick adjustment to his next plan in his mind.

"Zhaozhao, Xiaoji, I can pick you up tomorrow, so you might have to work hard today," Lu Xun said apologetically.

After saying that, he frowned. "I have to go now! I'm running late!"

"Then we'll go catch our flight too," Lu Qi and Jing Chuan said with wry smiles.

Lu Yinzhao smiled and said, "It's alright, Second Sister. It'll only be for a day or two. You two can go back to work. Bian Ji and I have nothing to do these days and are just getting bored, so we can play with the kids."

Lu Qi stepped forward and hugged her younger brother, thanking him again, "Zhao Zhao, I trust you completely. I wouldn't feel comfortable entrusting you to anyone else, but I feel at ease leaving you and Xiao Ji in your care. When your brother-in-law and I return, we'll bring you big gifts!"

Before leaving, Jingchuan pushed the twins' stroller in, saying, "Thank you. Xiaoqi and I will be back as soon as possible."

"Babies, say goodbye to your mom and dad!"

Lu Yinzhao and Bian Ji each had a baby in their arms. The babies completely ignored Lu Yinzhao's words and paid no attention to their parents who were about to fly away.

One of them was playing with the rope on Lu Yinzhao's clothes, while the other was fiddling with the buttons on Bian Ji's shirt.

His attention was completely elsewhere.

Lu Yinzhao: "..." They are truly two filial sons.

After the door closed, Lu Yinzhao and Bian Ji met eyes and smiled helplessly.

"Looks like we can't watch a movie today, bro. Do you mind bringing the kids?" Lu Yinzhao asked.

Bian Ji shook her head. "Why would I mind? I raised you, and... as long as I'm with you, I'll do anything."

Lu Yinzhao breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment, he was genuinely worried that Bian Ji would mind having so many children in the family all of a sudden.

Actually, he really likes his older brother and sister's children.

When he was little, his older brothers and sisters would hold him very patiently, play with him, eat with him, and put him to sleep.

Now that he's grown up, he finds these little guys quite fascinating.

There are only three kids. The eldest brother and second sister's children should be very well-behaved and not difficult to raise.

"Uncle, can I watch cartoons on TV?" Xuanxuan asked, her big, dark eyes wide open.

"Sure, your uncle will adjust it for you right away."

As soon as Lu Yinzhao finished speaking, the little baby in his arms suddenly grinned.

Zuo Zuo's little hands tugged at his clothes, babbling, "Ah! Ah-ba! Ba!"

“Son, I’m not your father, I’m your uncle,” Lu Yinzhao corrected.

"Chirp~ Chirp chirp chirp~"

"Oh! That's right! It's your uncle, remember that! I'm your best little uncle!" Lu Yinzhao guided with a smile.

At this moment, Youyou, who was in Bian Ji's arms, looked bewildered and was curiously looking around at the unfamiliar environment.

Although she didn't cry, she looked a little timid.

"These two brothers really have very different personalities; one is a chatterbox, and the other doesn't talk much."

After Lu Yinzhao finished setting the cartoons for Xuanxuan, he and Bian Ji sat on the sofa, observing the twin brothers' behavior.

"How old are they?" Bian Ji asked.

Lu Yinzhao thought for a moment: "He should still be a month shy of turning one..."

When Lu Yinzhao had just graduated, Lu Qi was found to be two months pregnant with twins, which made the whole family very happy.

The child was born healthy the following spring.

Lu Qi said that the two children were very well-behaved when they were in her belly and didn't bother her at all. She didn't experience any pregnancy symptoms whatsoever.

In addition, Jingchuan took meticulous care of her, and her complexion remained excellent.

In the end, the two brothers took their mother's surname and their father's surname, a decision made jointly by Lu Qi and Jing Chuan.

The older brother's name is Lu Yu'an, and the younger brother's name is Jing Yu'chen. Their nicknames are Zuo Zuo and You You.

Lu Yinzhao glanced at the time and said, "Although it's still early, I think we can start preparing lunch now."

Preparing food for children takes quite a bit of time.

If it were just the two adults, a simple bowl of noodles would suffice, but with three more children in the family, Lu Yinzhao dared not be careless.

"Okay, tell me what dishes you want to make, and I'll prepare them. You can play with them in the living room," Bian Ji said, getting up.

"For the main course, make some pumpkin puree and steamed yam. For protein, make steamed egg custard and steamed cod puree. For vegetables, use chopped spinach and broccoli, cook them until soft and then mix them into the main course."

"Xuanxuan can cook a few non-spicy dishes. You can prepare them based on what you have in the refrigerator."

Lu Yinzhao spoke eloquently and seemed very experienced.

Bian Ji smiled slightly and suddenly said something surprising, "If we had our own child, you would definitely be a great father."

Lu Yinzhao: "!!"

After teasing the person, Bian Ji ran to the kitchen.

Lu Yinzhao's ears were still burning hot even after a long time.

Why does this guy keep spouting all sorts of nonsense lately?

How could two men possibly have a child...?

Lu Yinzhao suddenly realized something was wrong. How did he get caught up in Bian Ji's words? He was actually actually considering the possibility of "what if"?

Lu Yinzhao shook his head, quickly dismissing these unrealistic thoughts.

Continue playing with Zuo Zuo and You You on the sofa.

Zuo Zuo and You You are not very steady on their feet yet. They can take a few steps, but they usually crawl back down after a few steps.

Lu Yinzhao used the small toys that Lu Qi had prepared in the stroller to attract their attention.

"Zozo, look at this!"

He picked up the fluffy little apple with one hand and waved it in front of Zuo Zuo's eyes.

The little guy was crawling under the sofa with his little bottom sticking out when he heard the noise. He immediately turned around, babbling and rushing over.

The chubby little hand grabbed the little apple, held it in his arms, and was about to bite into it.

"Hey! You can't eat that!"

After Lu Yinzhao stopped him, he helped Zuo Zuo up from the carpet, supporting him and helping him stand up.

"Come on, learn to walk with your little uncle."

Zuo Zuo took two unsteady steps, her short legs gave way, and she plopped down on the carpet.

The little one didn't cry at all; instead, he clapped his hands and laughed, mumbling, "Go! Go! Chirp chirp!"

After shouting, he scrambled to his feet, his target pointing directly at another small toy in Lu Yinzhao's hand.

On the other side, Youyou sat in the corner of the sofa, her little hands clutching the tassels of the sofa cover, silently watching her brother and uncle play around.

Lu Yinzhao picked up a miniature camera model, slowly brought it close to him, and gently pressed the button on top. The model made a "click" sound, simulating a camera shutter.

"Youyou, look at this!"

Lu Yinzhao handed the camera to him, her voice soft, "Your uncle uses this to take nice photos, do you want to try it?"

Youyou blinked her big eyes, stared at the camera model for a long time, and then carefully reached out her little hand, her fingertips touching the cold plastic shell.

Lu Yinzhao then placed the camera in his hand and taught him how to press the shutter button.

"That's right, that's exactly it, Youyou is so smart!"

With a "click," Zuo Zuo crawled over and put his head right in front of the camera lens.

He laughed foolishly, and accidentally drooled onto the model.

Looking at her brother, Youyou's lips, which rarely smiled, subtly curved into a smile.

Although he didn't say anything, there was less fear in his eyes.

Lu Yinzhao quickly took out his phone and snapped a picture of the scene.

Youyou held a mini camera, and Zuozuo lay beside his legs.

The two little ones' faces were very close together, and the sunlight fell on their soft hair, making it incredibly warm.

"Good girl."

Lu Yinzhao rubbed Youyou's head.

Just as he was about to speak, Zuo Zuo suddenly snatched the camera model from his younger brother's hand and turned to crawl towards the kitchen.

It kept making noises: "Da da da! Da da da da!"

"Hey! Don't run away!"

Lu Yinzhao quickly chased after him, afraid that he would bump into the corner of the table.

The little guy crawled very fast, his short legs kicking and flapping.

Just as he was about to rush into the kitchen, Bian Ji came out carrying a plate of sliced ​​steamed apples.

Seeing this, he steadily bent down and picked up the little one.

"Are you bringing me toys?" Bian Ji looked down at Zuo Zuo in his arms, a hint of a smile in his eyes.

"Give the camera to your uncle, he'll take pictures for you, okay?" Lu Yinzhao chased after him, coaxing him.

Zuo Zuo giggled and shoved the camera model into Lu Yinzhao's hand.

He reached out to grab the apples from the plate.

The chubby little hand grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing until his cheeks were bulging.

Youyou slowly climbed down from the sofa, wobbled over to Lu Yinzhao's side, and tugged at his trouser leg.

She handed him the fluffy little apple in her hand, "..."

"Does Youyou want to give it to her uncle?"

Lu Yinzhao squatted down, took the toy, and felt her heart melt.

This child seems quiet and reserved, but I never expected him to share his toys.

"Bian Ji, they're so cute!" Lu Yinzhao couldn't help but say.

Before he could finish speaking, with a "bang," the plate of apples in Bian Ji's hands was overturned by the baby in his arms.

The sound of it hitting the ground startled Xuanxuan, who was watching cartoons.

Lu Yinzhao: "..."
