Zhuoyue was at a loss for words. After a moment of sighing, he could only shake his head and leave in a hurry.
"Wah wah!" As I approached the front door, I could hear the child's clear, crisp cries from afar.
I quickened my pace and stepped across the threshold, and immediately saw my wife, Sasha, wearing a white dress, looking worried, holding our daughter, Jiuyue, pacing back and forth in the hall...
Sasha lowered her head slightly, reached out and gently patted the child's back. When she saw Zhuoyue come in, Sasha looked up at him and went to greet him, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed. "Come and see, what's wrong with our daughter? She's been crying nonstop since early this morning, and we can't soothe her no matter what we do."
"Really?" She walked a few steps to Sasha, took her daughter, and held her in her arms.
Despite being filled with worries, Zhuoyue would habitually relax his brow whenever he saw his daughter…
Seeing his daughter's chubby little face always makes Zhuoyue forget all his worries; his heart and eyes are only for his daughter, even if he is preoccupied with other things today. In the past, as long as he held Xiao Jiuyue in his arms, as soon as she saw her father's smiling face, she would immediately stop crying.
But something seemed off today; no matter how Zhuoyue tried to tease her, it didn't seem to work.
At this moment, the baby's eyes were closed, its pink face flushed red, and its toothless mouth was still open, crying incessantly, "Waaah!" Little September cried even harder, "Waaah..."
He busied himself putting Xiao Jiuyue on the bed, first examining her, then taking her pulse and making a diagnosis. Finally, Zhuoyue shook his head helplessly and stood up.
"Is Little September sick?" Sasha stepped forward, picked up September, and swayed her arms to continue comforting her while quickly asking Zhuoyue for his conclusion.
“No.” Zhuoyue sighed loudly, utterly perplexed. “Everything is normal. He has no problems whatsoever, and his crying is loud and clear…”
"But why does she seem to be crying harder and harder?" Sasha felt sorry for her daughter, but there was nothing she could do.
"My little September, what's wrong with you?" Faced with September's crying, Zhuoyue was at a loss.
"Waaah..." Little Jiuyue used to stop crying whenever she saw Zhuoyue, but today was different. No matter how Zhuoyue tried to coax her, Little Jiuyue cried even harder.
"My lord, my lord,"
"My lord..." Just then, the sound of a baby crying came from outside the house again, and the sound of footsteps "thump thump..." could be heard in the corridor outside the door.
Three court officials, each holding a small baby, appeared in the main hall of the Zhuo family's residence.
The baby girl in their arms was also crying loudly.
"What's wrong with you all?" Zhuoyue walked up to them.
"The children have been crying all morning, and no matter what we do, we can't stop them from crying. We know you all have a knack for taking care of children, so my wife asked us to bring the children here to learn from you." One of the ministers in front turned around and looked at the other two behind him before speaking out.
However, when they looked at the baby girl in Sasha's arms, their faces were filled with astonishment. "What, is Little September crying incessantly too?"
“Yes, you see, even our own children are helpless, so we can’t help them either.” Zhuoyue walked over and examined each of the baby girls one by one. They all had the same characteristics: no injuries, no fever, and they were all clean. However, they were all crying with their faces red, tears and snot running down their faces. They looked so tired that they could no longer cry, and their little hands and feet began to twitch.
