Ji Wuhen ate it without changing his expression, and he didn't feel any discomfort. It can be seen that this child has been well-educated. Although he is very hungry, he eats very well.
Xia Tian also discovered a problem. Ji Wuhen, who was originally restrained, was no longer restrained after Gu Qingxi said these words in a bad mood.
Maybe Qingxi is still very good at taking care of children? Xia Tian couldn't help thinking.
However, Xia Tian soon began to doubt his own thoughts and felt that his thoughts were too naive.
After eating, Gu Qingxi walked out of the restaurant contentedly.
Then he saw a mermaid selling a kind of snack on the opposite side of the road.
Gu Qingxi turned around and said to Ji Wuhen: "Go, buy me one to try. If you buy too much, I will beat you to death." After that, Gu Qingxi gave Ji Wuhen a few spirit stones.
Xia Tian: "..." Is it really okay to enslave a child like this?
Ji Wuhen said nothing, expressionless, took the spirit stones, ran over, and seemed to bargain with the vendor, and then ran back to Gu Qingxi with a bag. He handed the bag and the remaining spirit stones to Gu Qingxi.
Gu Qingxi took the bag of snacks, but didn't take the Lingshi. Instead, she said as a matter of course: "Take the Lingshi first. I'll ask you to buy me something I want to eat later."
The bossy tone made Xia Tian feel a little sad.
"Oh." Ji Wuhen nodded and put the Lingshi into his pocket.
Gu Qingxi opened the paper bag and looked at the snacks inside. It was made of seaweed, fried, and seemed to be wrapped in something. It was fried and fragrant. However, this kind of food does not contain spiritual energy, it is just an ordinary snack.
Gu Qingxi took a bite and then handed it to Ji Wuhen: "It's not delicious, I give it to you. If you don't finish it, I'll beat you to death."
Xia Tian: "..." Is it really okay to bully a child like this?
Ji Wuhen still had a stern face, then took the bag and ate it slowly.
"He just had a meal, will he be full?" Xia Tian asked with some concern.
"He didn't eat enough just now." Gu Qingxi said in a low voice that only she and Xia Tian could hear.
Eh?
Xia Tian looked at Ji Wuhen who was eating snacks in surprise, and then he remembered that when they put down their chopsticks at the table before, Ji Wuhen also put down his chopsticks. He thought Ji Wuhen was full, but it seemed that Qingxi was careful and found that Ji Wuhen was not full.
Then, Qingxi used this method to make Ji Wuhen continue to eat. The fierce child who was very alert was now eating the food in his hand quietly and naturally.
Xia Tian suddenly understood the intention of Gu Qingxi's attitude towards Ji Wuhen.
This half-mermaid child must have suffered too much malice and was full of wariness towards everyone. If you treat him well directly, it will be easy to scare him away. But Gu Qingxi's bossy look made him accept Gu Qingxi's kindness unconsciously.
Gu Qingxi took Ji Wuhen back to the inn, and who Ji Wuhen would live with was another problem.
Ji Wuhen was a boy after all, and he looked about seven or eight years old. It was not convenient for him to sleep with her, but Ji Wuhen refused to sleep with Xia Tian. He ran to Gu Qingxi's door and stood there.
Gu Qingxi's mouth twitched: "It's so annoying. Let's go, let's go to the yard, and you can sleep in a room by yourself."
She was a little worried about letting Ji Wuhen sleep in a guest room by himself. Living in a yard, there are restrictions, so Gu Qingxi felt more at ease living in the bedroom next door.
In this way, Gu Qingxi asked the innkeeper for an independent yard and let Xia Tian and Ji Wuhen live in it.
"You wash his face." Gu Qingxi instructed Xia Tian.
"I can do it myself." Ji Wuhen said without waiting for Xia Tian to speak.
"Okay, go wash up and sleep quickly. Tomorrow we are going to hunt sea beasts, you stay in the yard and wait for us to come back and take you to dinner." Gu Qingxi waved her hand.
"I want to go too." Ji Wuhen said with a stern face.
"What are you going to do? Deliver food to the sea beasts?" Gu Qingxi asked unhappily.
"I want to go." Ji Wuhen repeated again.
Xia Tian was a little helpless on the side. He could see that this child was very stubborn. It was too difficult to make this child obedient. What should I do if I really want to go with him?
"It's so annoying. You stay in the yard and take the blood of the sea beast. Cut off the useful parts of the sea beast and organize them." Gu Qingxi said impatiently, "You want to eat white rice and follow me to stop the burden, no way! Tomorrow when we come back and find that you haven't finished your work and have no food, I will beat you again."
"Okay." Ji Wuhen agreed straightforwardly, his little face still stern, without any expression.
Xia Tian: "..." Qingxi has a special skill to make stubborn children obedient.
The next morning, when Gu Qingxi opened the door, she was startled by the person standing at the door.
Ji Wuhen stood at the door with a stern face, and no one knew when he got up. He should have come here to wait after getting up.
"Children don't grow tall if they don't sleep enough. You will be a dwarf in the future. You can't even jump up to hit someone's face. At most, you can jump up and hit someone's knee." Gu Qingxi snorted.
Xia Tian, who just got up and opened the door, heard this poisonous remark. He looked at Ji Wuhen with an expression that was hard to describe. Wanting to see clearly what expression Ji Wuhen would have when he heard this.
As a result, Ji Wuhen's pretty little face still had no expression, but nodded and said: "I will sleep more tomorrow."
"Let's go, eat. You should eat more, otherwise you will not have the strength to work today. At noon, the waiter will deliver the food to the gate of the yard, and you can open the restriction and take it yourself. Remember to close the restriction after taking it. Otherwise, human monks will catch you and make braised fish." Gu Qingxi said lazily.
Xia Tian: "..." Is it really okay for Qingxi to scare a child like this? Doesn't your conscience hurt?
After having breakfast in the lobby of the inn, Gu Qingxi sent Ji Wuhen back to the yard, and then poured out some sea beast corpses from the storage bag. He also gave Ji Wuhen a dagger and some bottles.
"Put the blood in this bottle, cut off the useful parts and put them aside. If you dirty the yard, get water to wash it yourself. Also, help me take care of the baby." After Gu Qingxi finished speaking, he took out the baby and stuffed it into Ji Wuhen's arms.
Ji Wuhen was startled. Feeling the soft and furry little thing in his arms, his whole body froze and he dared not move.
"Remember to feed the baby at noon. It will eat whatever you eat." Gu Qingxi said, turned around and left. After leaving the yard, she asked Ji Wuhen to close the yard's ban. After
Gu Qingxi left, Ji Wuhen looked at the gate of the yard for a long time, then retracted his gaze and looked down at the baby in his arms. Then he met a pair of dark eyes.
The cub chirped twice, jumped out of Ji Wuhen's arms, jumped onto his shoulders, and then jumped onto his head, stepping on his head happily.
Ji Wuhen's stern face finally softened at this moment. He did not take the cub off his head, but held the cub on his head and began to prepare to deal with the corpse of the sea beast.
Gu Qingxi and Xia Tian went to the dock to prepare to board the ship.
"Qingxi, is it okay to leave the child alone in the yard? Will he run out? What if he is bullied by other mermaid children again?" Xia Tian asked with some concern.
