Chapter 404: Taking care of my husband and children every day will drive me crazy
She hadn't held her son for several months, and the pink little ball in her arms, soft and with a milky scent, made her heart soften inexplicably.
Holding the child, she hurriedly followed Chu Jin, but her mouth was not idle, scolding him all the way:
"It's all your fault. You followed me like a dog, sniffing out the scent and chasing me. How could such a small child not catch a cold when you brought him up the mountain?"
Seeing that she had no intention of running away and was instead baring her teeth at him like a mother animal protecting her cub, Chu Jin rarely refuted her and just lowered his head to let her scold him.
Both of them had mastered the art of lightness training and were extremely fast on their feet. In about an incense stick of time, they found the Soul Killer and his group.
Manluo saw the wet nurse in the crowd and quickly sent away a few grown men, asking her to feed Xiao Yueer quickly.
The nurse took Yue'er from her hands, found a clean stone to sit on, and unbuttoned her clothes...
The little guy must have been very hungry, and he started swallowing in big mouthfuls.
After the child had eaten and drunk his fill and fell into a deep sleep, Manluo took him in and hugged him again, wrapping him tightly in the quilt again. Her fingertips gently stroked his soft hair, and she was reluctant to let go.
However, the child's cheeks became redder and his breathing became faster, and it was obvious that he really had a high fever.
"We have to get down the mountain quickly." Chu Jin made a prompt decision.
The group did not dare to delay and hurried down the mountain.
After they got down the mountain, they found the carriage and horses that they had hidden in a secluded place before. Manluo and the wet nurse carried the child onto the carriage. The other grown men rode on horses and did not dare to return to Qixing City. Instead, they found a farmhouse outside the city and settled down temporarily.
Chu Jin gave the farmer a gold ingot and asked him to declare that they were distant relatives and stay for a few days.
It was because he was afraid that Xie Zhan and the others would find their way here and disturb the peaceful reunion of their family of three.
Then he made some fever-reducing medicine and gave it to the child.
After her child fell ill, Manluo no longer had any thoughts of running away.
At this moment, her heart and eyes were filled with her son, and the maternal love that had been thrown behind her for several months suddenly burst out.
In the next few days, she stayed by Yue'er's bedside almost without taking off her clothes, feeding her medicine, wiping her body, changing her diapers, and even falling asleep with the child in her arms at night, waking up at the slightest movement.
Chu Jin wanted to lend a hand, but she pushed him away because he was clumsy.
He saw it with his own eyes and felt happy in his heart.
It was not until the evening of the third day that Yue'er's high fever gradually subsided. When he saw Manluo, he seemed to be connected as mother to son. Not only was he not afraid of strangers, he even reached out to grab the shell hairpin in her hair and giggled, completely regaining his previous lively and lovely appearance.
Manluo finally breathed a sigh of relief, hugged her son and kissed him again and again, and her heart finally settled down.
Chu Jin, on the other hand, saw Manluo throwing herself wholeheartedly into the child. There was a gentleness in her that he had never seen before, and he felt warm in his heart.
Although Manluo was still angry with him, she did not feel alienated at all.
She would naturally ask him to pour hot water, and would ask him to pass the cloth when changing diapers. Even at night, when Manluo hugged the child to sleep, he would sit quietly at the table, staring at the sleeping faces of the mother and daughter in a daze.
When he was extremely sleepy, he would lie down on the edge of the bed with his clothes on, waiting to be called at any time.
However, his heart was filled with sweetness, as he finally felt the warmth of a wife, children and a warm bed.
In the past few days, Chu Jin has put away his previous domineering and entangled behavior. He no longer uses tough words like "You are not allowed to leave", but just quietly does what he can to help.
Seeing that Manluo's eyes were dark due to staying up all night, he would clumsily imitate the wet nurse to make rice milk. Although his hands were sticky, Manluo raised the corners of her lips slightly when she looked at his back.
After the child got better, the two sat on the threshold of the farmhouse to bask in the sun. Yue'er giggled in Manluo's arms. Chu Jin looked at the child, then at Manluo, hugged them in his arms, and whispered:
"Manluo, please don't leave me and Yue'er anymore. The child needs you, and I can't leave you either."
Manluo froze and didn't respond.
Chu Jin gently placed his lips on her forehead, his eyes filled with sadness:
"You and I are both orphans, so you wouldn't want Yue'er to repeat our path. Manluo, from now on, I'll listen to you in everything, okay?"
Manluo was silent for a while, then said coldly:
"What if Helian Feng wants to kill me again in the future? What will you do?"
Chu Jin's lips trembled, and he finally made up his mind:
"Manluo, I, Chu Jin, value loyalty. However, if he truly intends to harm my woman and child, that would be disregarding brotherhood. I... naturally won't allow it. Even if it costs my life, I will protect you and your child."
Manluo sighed softly, her eyes flickering with a hint of honesty and a hint of probing:
"But, Chu Jin, you know me well. I'm a playboy by nature and can't stand being constrained. If you ask me to spend my whole life with a man and a child, taking care of my husband and children, and dealing with the daily chores of cooking and cooking, I'll go crazy."
Chu Jin listened quietly, without any surprise on his face, as if he had expected her to say that.
He reached out and hugged his woman tightly, his tone was unprecedentedly gentle and firm:
"I know, I accept all of this."
He paused, his gaze fell on Yue'er in her arms, a smile spreading in his eyes:
"If you're bored, annoyed, and want to go out and have fun, then go ahead. I'll take Yue'er with me and wait for you until you calm down and come back when you're tired."
