Chapter 12
Zhu Fu is now three years old, at the sweetest and most innocent age. The excellent genes inherited from his fathers have given him a perfect appearance. Such appearance will develop into a beauty that will stun everyone in his youth. At the age of three, he is a little baby that everyone wants to kiss.
The little curly hair and milky white furry cat ears, coupled with the peach blossom eyes that are very similar to Zhu Xiyuan, and the deceptive expression of concentration inherited from Si Yin, no one would remain unmoved when looking at someone like this.
He even deliberately used a soft, sobbing voice, his little hands clutching Aunt He's front, and the latter instantly melted: "What's wrong, young master? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
When Sally heard her grandson cry out in pain, she hurried over and asked, "Did Aunt He touch your wound?"
Aunt He was horrified: "Young Master was injured? It was a car accident——"
Zhu Xiaoling had a car accident on the way back from picking up a family of three. Aunt He and Francis both knew about it, but Zhu Xiaoling had already told them through the wristband that except for Zhu Xiyuan who had a bone fracture and needed to be hospitalized, everyone else was safe.
"No..." The kitten complained aggrievedly, "It's Fu Fu's fault. Su Su disliked me, so Su Su hit me..."
The boy pulled up his clothes to show the bruises to the adults
There was only one person present who Zhu Fu could call "uncle".
Everyone looked at the culprit.
Zhu Shaoquan, who was at least a few meters away from him: "..."
It's unfair! He really didn't do that!
Well, he admitted that he was not as welcoming to Zhu Xiyuan and his family as he appeared to be.
Although his father favored him on the surface, he knew that Zhu Xiyuan, as the eldest son and the most talented child, always occupied an unshakable place in his parents' hearts.
What's more, if Zhu Xiyuan had not "betrayed" the Zhu family, it might not have been his turn to take over his father's connections and work.
He heard from his sister that Zhu Xiyuan came back for a long time this time, to be filial to his father and had no plans to leave.
No matter how deep the prejudice and estrangement between parents and children are, they are connected by blood after all and will reconcile one day.
It's not that he wasn't worried about his position, nor was he unprepared.
But even if he wanted to use some means to deal with Zhu Xiyuan, he would not do it through a child.
Even if he wanted to bully a child, he couldn't do it so obviously in front of everyone. Isn't that stupid?
...Wait, he wasn't trying to bully the kid!
Zhu Shaoquan had known since childhood that Aunt He didn't like him, but at this moment, his mother's reproach and Francis's suspicious look deeply hurt him, especially the latter. On ordinary days, he and the housekeeper were quite harmonious on the surface.
He no longer maintained his smooth smile, took a deep breath, and his face turned cold: "I didn't."
After saying this coldly, he walked around everyone and went in.
After he left, Sally sighed, "This kid has been spoiled by me and his dad."
Aunt He comforted her, "Madam, it's not your fault."
She held the little boy up and bounced him up: "Don't be afraid, little master, don't be afraid, auntie will protect you from now on!"
Sally took Fu Fu over and said, "Xiao He, go find some medicine. It should be non-irritating and suitable for children."
"Yes, ma'am."
Zhu Fu lay on Sally's shoulder, tilted her head, and looked at the magnificent house.
Perhaps in line with Zhu Zhengde's old-fashioned style, after being donated to the Zhu family, Camp Manor was renovated from the inside out and transformed into the style of the ancient mother planet.
Blue bricks and black tiles, pavilions and towers, small bridges and flowing water. In this interstellar age surrounded by technology, it is so charming to be able to have such a restored ancient charm. Just walking inside can calm your heart.
Francis followed and said, "Madam, let me help you hold the young master. Don't get tired."
"No, the baby is so light, not heavy at all." Sally said, "Go and ask the kitchen to make something that the child likes to eat - hey, baby, what do you like to eat?"
When the kitten heard about food, his ears perked up immediately: "Coconut milk!"
"Coconut milk?" Sally asked. "Do you have any at home?"
"I'll go check it out. If it's not there, I'll buy it now."
"Baby, please be patient and wait. I will definitely let you drink it today!"
Zhu Fu actually wanted to drink the sago pudding made by Zhu Xiyuan, but his mother was still in the hospital.
With his dad taking care of him, he didn't need to worry about his mother's health, but...
But after just a short separation, I actually miss my fathers a little.
In fact, when he was with his fathers in his previous life, they didn't spoil him too much, especially as he grew older, there were many occasions when he needed to be very independent.
As a result, she was reborn into this large and prosperous family. Zhu Fu recalled that since she met Zhu Xiaoling at the dock, she almost never walked. She was passed from one adult's arms to another, and she didn't need long legs at all.
In his previous life as an evil god, people hated him or worshipped him fanatically. These were emotions that were quite distant from him.
After his fathers died, no one "loved" him anymore.
Now, besides my fathers who are back to life, my aunt, my grandmother, Aunt He, and the housekeeper...
It feels really good to be truly loved.
Fortunately, in such a rich love, Zhu Fu has not forgotten her mission: to let the fathers who did not enjoy happiness in their previous life live a complete life.
The first step in realizing this vision is for him to serve as a glue between fathers and grandparents.
and……
Fuzi added another note to her little notebook:
Keep that uncle, whose intentions are still unknown, away from our fathers.
*
This is the first time Zhu Fu has her own room.
The evil god in his previous life has been a secret since he was born, so his fathers have always taken him on the run under the eyes of different supervisors, and he has never had a safe place.
Later, after his fathers passed away, even though he had become powerful enough to make wind blow and rain fall, the evil god lost interest in such meaningless things as residences.
After all, gods have transcended mortal bodies and have no need to rest or avoid danger, so naturally they don't need to confine themselves to a small house.
The Zhu family's residence was a rather grand villa with four floors. The children's room that Sally had arranged for Zhu Fu was on the top floor, right next to Zhu Xiyuan and Si Yin's rooms.
Although technically the children's room is an attic, the decoration makes it look like a small castle.
Because Sally was not sure what color Zhu Fu liked, she chose the most reliable beige as the main color.
The entire room is painted in warm colors using the highest quality natural plant paint, and maintains the best temperature, humidity and air quality 24 hours a day.
The ceiling is designed with a starry sky pattern that children love. When night falls, the windows there can be fully opened to see the real starry sky; when it rains, the material will also reflect the bright but not shiny star-like luster.
The children's bed is a hammock that can be raised or lowered at will. It can be hung in the middle of the room like a miniature airship, or it can be turned into a solid castle for the little prince with the curtains drawn.
The bed was covered with various limited edition dolls, which were all seen by Sally and Zhu Xiaoling when they were traveling or working over the years. Some of them were so expensive that they could buy an ordinary person's house.
They collected them and kept them here, waiting for the day when the only little baby in the house can move in and fall asleep holding them.
In addition to these large items, there are also swings, wooden horses, trampolines... and even a small pool filled with colorful ocean balls of similar colors.
Perhaps a fully mature evil god would disdain such a childish arrangement, but the three-year-old Fuzi liked it so much that he wanted to jump into the ocean ball and play for three days and three nights without going out.
It’s not that the kitten wants to change sides immediately, it’s just that... how can a child refuse this!
Perhaps there really are children with strong wills who can remain unmoved in the face of such temptations.
But that definitely wasn’t Zhu Xiaofu.
Seeing her grandson staring at her with wide eyes, Sally asked happily, "Do you like it, baby? Do you like what grandma decorated for you? Oh, by the way, the whole thing was designed by your aunt."
As a freelance designer, Zhu Xiaoling has dabbled in everything from flying cars to home decoration and even the most common clothing design.
She is highly talented, and with the support of the Zhu family's background, she is also a hot rising star in the industry.
But she was not satisfied enough and felt that the work was always a little short of her ideal.
As for her brother's return with his little nephew, she firmly believes that this super cute baby will be the last piece of the puzzle to fill in the inspiration.
Sally put the child down, but the boy did not rush to the toys immediately. Instead, he tugged at the corner of her clothes.
She bent down, thinking Fufu might need something else, so she asked, "What's wrong?"
Unexpectedly, the boy hugged her neck and kissed her on the cheek. The kitten trembled her ears shyly and said, "Thank you, grandma, you are so kind..."
Sally watched the little guy turn around and run on the merry-go-round, her mouth wide open. She loved and was pleased with this little grandson she hadn't seen in such a long time.
Of course, the overwhelming love was also mixed with guilt for neglecting his eldest son over the years.
Now that Zhu Xiyuan had finally returned to them, she wanted to make it up to him, but she had to persuade her stubborn husband to put aside his pride.
She has always been in poor health, and now her husband has also been diagnosed with the disease. It is still unknown how long they can live.
At least when you are alive, you can be surrounded by your children and grandchildren and enjoy the happiness of family, so that you will not feel regret after death.
Knock knock.
Someone knocks on the door.
"Come in."
The two turned their heads together. It was Zhu Shaoquan who had sent the message, holding a transparent bowl. It was the coconut milk sago pudding Aunt He had just made.
Zhu Shaoquan forced a relatively sincere smile: "It's freshly baked, little darling, and it's still a little hot."
The kitten's ears stood up alertly.
