Chapter 197 Family Portrait
When Sang Luo arrived at the Sea King Palace, she heard Su Bo say that Aze was still sleeping in the Spirit Lake. For him, sleeping was the fastest way to recover and heal his body, but she didn't know how long he would sleep. She thought of Lou Xianyue who used to sleep for decades or even hundreds of years... She touched her belly and sighed, not knowing whether he would be there when this baby was born.
Sang Luo went to Cheng'en Palace to find Xiao Lan'an, and met Taifu Zai Xin head-on, who was holding a thick stack of files in his hands.
"Master Zai, are these all for Xiao An?"
"Her Majesty is back! His Majesty will be delighted to hear this. These are the official documents I've selected for him to review and teach," Zai Xin said, sighing with a headache. "His Majesty is the most intelligent and gifted child I've ever met, but he lacks patience. I have to coax him while I teach him. He starts to complain about being hungry and sleepy after just a few minutes, and he's throwing all sorts of tantrums. I don't know what to do."
Sang Luo chuckled softly, "The King Beast cub is precocious, but Xiao An is only two years old, at the age when he is playful. No child would be interested in watching such boring things every day."
"Your Majesty is right, but since His Majesty has not yet woken up, I can only act according to the previous imperial decree."
"You've worked hard these days, Mr. Zai. Give me the files. I'll teach Xiao'an for a few days. It can also be considered a vacation for him. Mr. Zai is old, so he can go back and rest for a while."
"Thank you very much for your consideration, Your Majesty." Zai Xin handed the file to her and bowed and left.
Sang Luo put the file into the space and walked into Cheng Huan Hall.
"Xiao Eucalyptus——"
Little Blue Eucalyptus had just finished his meal. Hearing the sound, he looked towards the door and opened his arms, "Mom!"
Sang Luo bent down and held him in her arms, kissing his fair and tender face, "How have you been recently? Do you miss mother?"
"Xiao'an is so tired that she hardly has time to think about her mother." Lan'an curled her lips.
Sang Luo looked at his aggrieved little eyes and smiled, "Mother heard that old uncle Zai Xin has arranged a lot of things for you recently. He said that Xiao An is making great progress, so mother will give you a reward."
She took out a set of building block houses from the space. This was what she bought when she returned to the Western Continent last time. She bought a lot of fun toys for the children to play with.
This is the first time I have seen blue gum. It is very rare.
Sang Luo opened the package and took a look at the instruction manual. This set of building blocks was a mysterious haunted house called "Crazy Laboratory". The packaging box stated that the assembly difficulty was three and a half stars. It required thousands of building blocks, and the haunted house was to create a confusing and terrifying lighting effect, with many wires and small light bulbs.
Sang Luo originally wanted to build the device with Little Blue Eucalyptus to foster a mother-son bond, but as they were building, she started to feel overwhelmed. She pondered the instructions for a long time, "This red wire should go under the table..."
"The blue wire is under the table, and the red No. 3 wire should be in the shelf. Mom made a mistake!"
"Oh, yes, press here, Xiao An is so serious!"
The little blue eucalyptus was praised, and happily wagged its tail, and worked harder and more seriously to put the pieces together.
He quickly assembled a small hospital bed and fixed it to the floor, then went on to assemble the window. "Mother, there's a piece missing from the window frame. It won't fit into the wall."
"Mom, please look for it. I saw it just now." Sang Luo searched the pile of building blocks beside his legs but couldn't find it. "Could it have fallen into the pool?"
"I'll go look for it." Lan Euan went back to the bottom of the pool and swam a few times, searching among the various treasures in his collection of gold, stone, coral, and other treasures. He quickly climbed onto the shore, clutching a small building block, and said, "Mom, I found it."
Sang Luo took the building blocks from his hand and installed the window.
Afraid that the building blocks would be scattered again, she took out a few storage boxes from the space and sorted the pile of building blocks on the ground according to shape and size, making it easier to pick them up.
The mother and daughter worked until the evening and finally put the haunted house together. Sang Luo sat on the ground for a long time, her waist and legs aching. She was even more tired than after playing World of Warcraft all day!
Playing with children is also a physical job.
Xiao An felt a great sense of accomplishment. He was extremely happy holding this haunted house which was almost as big as him. He wanted to put the haunted house under the pool and stack it together with his treasures, but he found that the blocks floated on the water and could not be pressed down. As soon as he pressed them down with his tail, the blocks quickly floated up again.
"Building blocks are less dense than water and won't sink. Mommy will build a shelf for you next to the pool. How about putting this haunted house on it?" Sang Luo took out a five-layer shelf from her space and placed it against the wall. "There are a lot of fun building block toys in Mommy's space. From now on, we'll put each building block on the shelf after we finish building it. Let's wait a year and see how many building blocks Mommy and Xiao'an have built."
"Mom is so nice!" Lan'an looked at her with sparkling eyes, and she had hope for her future life.
Sang Luo has been accompanying her son everywhere these days.
The mother and son went out for a walk during the day and played with building blocks after returning to the palace.
Xiao An is smart and serious, and he works very carefully. After just a few days of playing, he was able to challenge himself to assemble five-star difficulty building blocks.
"There are other toys in my mother's space. Go and look for them. Take whatever you want to play with."
Sang Luo took him into the space.
This was Lan'an's first time visiting the space, and he was deeply moved by how big his mother's space was!
There is everything you need to eat, use, play and practice.
But my mother didn't like to take care of it, and it was a mess here and there. Lan Euan couldn't stand it anymore, so she tidied up the space.
Seeing that he hadn't come out for a long time, Sang Luo asked, "Have you found the toy you want to play with?"
"Mom, what is this?" He came out holding a set of puzzle pieces.
"I almost forgot, I have several sets of puzzles in my space. I wanted to let you practice with some simple puzzles first, but now it seems that there is no need."
"This puzzle...is Mom, Xiao'an, and Dad! The pink petals behind them are so beautiful! There are so many petals in Mom's hair! So beautiful!"
Sang Luo took the puzzle and looked at it, her eyes filled with memories and she smiled gently, "Xiao An, do you remember? This is the photo Daddy took when we went to the secret realm last time. Mom thought it was so beautiful that she made it into a puzzle."
"Yeah! Xiao'an wants to complete this puzzle!"
"Okay, let's fight together."
Xiao An is very proficient and can easily complete puzzles of three or four hundred pieces.
Sang Luo couldn't help and felt a little embarrassed.
In less than half an hour, he had completed the pattern and looked at Sang Luo expectantly, "Mom, I want to see it every day when I open my eyes."
"Let me think about it. How about hanging it on the opposite wall? That way, when you wake up and swim out of the pool every day, you can see it at a glance."
Xiao An nodded, stretched out his hand and grabbed the puzzle, and the puzzle was about to break. "How do you hang it on the wall?"
Sang Luo took out a photo frame of about the same size as the puzzle from the space, helped him seal the puzzle, and put it in the frame, then hung it on the wall. From a distance, it looked like a family portrait.
Xiao An looked left and right, but still felt something was missing. She looked at Sang Luo's big belly and said, "Mom, is my sister about to give birth?"
