Chapter 143 The Mother Who Doesn't Produce Milk
Zuo Shan didn't notice the complex emotions in Xiao Bai's eyes when she looked at her baby; her attention was more focused on Lele.
Lele woke up, but until her powers were fully restored, she could only remain in this state of complete paralysis.
She knew that Lele almost turned herself into a real vegetable in order to save her, and the thought of it made her heart ache.
She had absolutely no reason to doubt Xiaobai, her friend who had traveled a long way to help her.
Xiao Bai said he would help cover up the baby's information so that no important people would notice him and he could stay by her side and grow up safely.
Madam Gu temporarily ended her treatment of Pan Duole, and her gaze fell on the sleeping baby.
“Something’s wrong with this child!” she said, frowning.
"Something's not right?" Zuo Shan immediately tensed up.
"He shouldn't be sleeping so much. Normally, a baby should feel hungry within half an hour to an hour after birth, but he clearly isn't."
Moreover, he was sleeping so soundly that it seemed more like... a semi-comatose state after his supernatural powers were overdrawn. "Old Madam Gu said.
"Superpower overdraft? You mean my baby Chen is really a born genetic warrior?" Although Zuo Shan had already guessed, it was just a guess. Now that her guess had been confirmed, she was naturally shocked.
"That's right, he has remnants of his superpowers, and his superpowers are most likely mental, but what exactly they are is unknown."
He probably used his powers during the previous earthquake, but he was just a fetus after all, and using them casually would lead to an overdraft of his powers.
In addition, the difficult birth had exhausted his physical strength.
Due to the combined exhaustion of his superpowers and physical strength, he has been in such a deep sleep ever since birth.
"This is actually the body's self-protection mechanism, using deep sleep to slowly repair overdrawn physical strength and superpowers," said Madam Gu.
Madam Gu's words reminded Zuo Shan of something. Before the earthquake, baby Achen had been sending her dangerous messages, but unfortunately, she didn't realize that an earthquake would happen. She only thought that the birthing process would be dangerous, so she called an ambulance early on.
Recalling Ah Chen's previous warnings of danger, Zuo Shan had a vague idea: perhaps Ah Chen's special ability was to foresee danger?
If this is his special ability, then his chances of surviving in the future will be much greater than others, which makes Zuo Shan very gratified.
She didn't expect her child to have any powerful superpowers; she just wanted him to survive safely in this wasteland. She would take care of the rest as his mother.
I have at least twenty-odd years of memories of Earth. Even if I can't become rich and powerful, I can at least make a living.
Zuo Shan looked at the baby with heartache, then asked Madam Gu with concern, "He's sleeping so soundly, he doesn't even have the strength to drink milk. What can I do to help him?"
“Give him enough energy stones and breast milk to replenish his supernatural abilities and physical strength, but I’m not sure if you can produce milk.” Madam Gu glanced at her not-so-protruding chest and said.
Left fan:......
The word "milk production" instantly conjured up an image in her mind: Left fan == dairy cow?
However, what Madam Gu said was indeed correct; severely malnourished mothers are unlikely to produce milk.
On Earth, there are countless foods that can replace breast milk, but in the wasteland, without breast milk, it is almost impossible for a baby to grow up healthily.
She could almost see her skinny baby, staring at her with wide, hungry eyes every day... The shriveled chest was heartbreaking.
“Our family has servants who are skilled at raising mutated reindeer. I can send over a milking female reindeer, along with its feed.”
"However, reindeer need a relatively large amount of free space, so we'll have to trouble Madam Gu to help us raise the female reindeer in your courtyard," Xiao Bai suddenly said.
Madam Gu's impression of him improved somewhat, and she automatically imagined the drama of love and hate between this young master of a prominent family and a scavenger woman from the 48th district, due to their different social statuses.
Most importantly, he did not take away Zuo Shan's child. You must know that this child is a born genetic warrior. No major family would be willing to let such a talented descendant wander outside.
In fact, when Madam Gu revealed that the baby had a mental ability, Modilan had already made the decision to keep the baby with Zuo Shan and in District 48.
For the Lan Dun family, it is not surprising that their direct bloodline members are born genetic warriors, but mental abilities are extremely precious throughout the entire Green Algae Star.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Matt, a mentalist, to have followed his family heir at the third rank.
As far as he knew, the Lan Dun family had not produced anyone with psychic abilities for five generations.
If Achen Baby's information is leaked, countless powerful families will send people to assassinate him. They will try to kill him before he breaks through to the fourth tier, so that the Lan Dun family will not be able to suppress them in the future.
Therefore, it is safer for him to stay in a remote area like District 48 until he has grown up.
Furthermore, he wouldn't send anyone to secretly protect the mother and child, because any self-righteous secret could be leaked. The safest and most reliable way is to pretend he doesn't exist.
Only if he, the sole person in the know, does nothing will the other family members not discover Ah Chen's existence.
“No problem. I was just worried that the yard was too empty. I thought it would be nice to have a reindeer strolling here every day. It would be a pleasure to see.” Madam Gu nodded with a smile.
Left Fan: Gentlemen, have you even discussed this with me, the person involved?
"Xiao Bai, the female reindeer you mentioned sounds very precious. How much should I pay you? Let me make it clear first, I don't want anything given away for free!" Zuo Shan hurriedly waved his hand.
“Miss Zuo, have you forgotten what we agreed on before? I am going to be baby Achen’s godfather. As his godfather, isn’t it only natural for me to give him a female reindeer?”
"You can't expect me, your godfather, to just stand by and watch my godson go hungry without doing anything, can you?" Xiaobai said accusingly.
Left Fan: I can't say no, what should I do?
Fortunately, she wasn't a sentimental person. To keep her baby from going hungry, she figured she might as well let the favor go, and she'd be able to pay it back eventually.
Now that she had accepted Xiaobai's gift, she would not refuse it again, since her small courtyard of just over fifty square meters was really not suitable for raising a reindeer.
Having finalized the matter, Motiland immediately stepped aside, raised his wristwatch, and dialed Matt's number.
Huh? It's been ringing for ages, why isn't that guy answering?
He dialed Mina's number again, and it rang for a long time without anyone answering.
Those two bastards, why did they let him down at such a crucial moment? His adopted son was waiting to drink milk, and instead of answering the call and sending the reindeer over, they were just slapping him in the face.
Modilan Shield opened the location search and quickly found the location of those two bastards. Hey? Why does this location look so familiar? Isn't this Miss Zuo's house?
