Chapter 11: The Third Day
"Mom, let's go to the zoo on Sunday. Can we take Yaya with us?" Qin Feng ran to Yue Minghui, held Yue Minghui's hand and begged.
Yue Minghui half-knelt down, stretched out her index finger and shook it at Qin Feng: "Xiaofeng, no, Yaya is still too young. You have to wait until Yaya is a little older before you can take Yaya out to play."
"Ah, then how long do we have to wait?" Qin Feng's face fell: "I want to go see the giant pandas with Yaya."
"At least until Yaya is a hundred years old. By then the weather will be warmer and we can take Yaya out."
"A hundred years?! That long?" Qin Feng pointed at himself and said, "Didn't I go there when I was three years old?"
Qin Feng's words made Yue Minghui and the others laugh. Yue Minghui tapped Qin Feng on the forehead and said, "Silly boy, a hundred years means a hundred days, which is a hundred days after Yaya was born."
Qin Feng scratched his head, not quite understanding: "Then why is it called Baisui? Shouldn't it be called Baitian?"
Yue Minghui explained to Qin Feng: "Because the hundred days after a person's death is also a special day, that day is called Baitian, and the hundred days after a person's birth is changed to Baisui, which means longevity and good luck."
"Mom, then I won't go to the zoo this Sunday. I'm going to wait until Yaya is 100 years old, and then I'll go with her."
Qin Feng ran back to Yaya's crib, held Yaya's hand, and asked her, "Yaya, let's go see the giant pandas together, okay?"
"Let me tell you, giant pandas are cute! But not as cute as you! Yaya is the cutest!"
Qin Feng leaned forward and whispered to Yaya, "Yaya, I have saved up a lot of pocket money. I will buy you a small panda backpack when the time comes."
He didn’t get to see any pandas the last time he went there, but he saw many children carrying small panda backpacks, which he liked very much and had been saving up his pocket money to buy one for himself.
But now he has changed his mind and he wants to buy it for Yaya.
Yaya will be even cuter when she carries it on her back.
[Brother Xiaofeng is so nice.] 】Yaya shook her little fist.
When Qin Feng heard Yaya's inner voice, his eyes widened. He was not afraid at all. Instead, he felt it was very novel, especially when Yaya was praising herself.
But what Yaya said afterwards really scared him.
【ε=(′ο｀*)))Alas, such a good brother Xiaofeng was abducted by human traffickers. 】
[When we go to the zoo, I must keep a close eye on Brother Xiaofeng and never let him run around! 】
[You must not let Brother Xiaofeng take food given by others. Human traffickers love to give food to children to trick them into following them, and they also give all kinds of novel toys. 】
[The human trafficker was so cruel. When he found out that Xiaofeng was trying to escape, he suffocated him to death. Human traffickers are all bad guys! 】
Qin Feng didn't come to his senses until he got home. He silently swore in his heart that he would never run around again, nor would he accept food and toys given by others.
Suddenly I remembered that there was someone near the school who often gave them food and said he would take them to play with fun toys. Could that person be a human trafficker?
Qin Feng immediately informed Yue Minghui and Qin Liping about this matter.
The two of them did not delay and thought this was an important clue, so they immediately called Yue Mingli.
After retiring from the army, Yue Mingli became a public security criminal policeman, and he was worried at this time.
There have been many cases of missing children in Beijing recently. They suspect that there is a criminal gang involved in human trafficking, but there are too few clues and progress is difficult.
After listening to what Yue Minghui and Qin Liping said, Yue Mingli was very excited: "Xiaohui, Liping, the news you two provided is really timely."
"This is what Xiaofeng told us." Yue Minghui looked towards Qin Feng's room. The brat had already fallen asleep.
"Xiao Feng, go ahead! Wait until I catch those bastards, and then I'll go back and buy Xiao Feng a big car as a reward!"
When Yue Mingli was about to hang up the phone, Yue Minghui remembered to ask him: "Second brother, are you coming to Yaya's third birthday?"
Yue Mingli slapped his forehead and said, "I'm so busy I almost forgot about this. I'll try my best."
On the third day after a newborn is born, there is a custom in Beijing to give the baby a "third bath".
The purpose of "washing the third day" is, firstly, to wash away filth, and secondly, to pray for good luck and blessings.
Although today there are no such elaborate ceremonies as in ancient times, this custom is still preserved.
After noon, all the Yue family members arrived, except Li Yan.
Yue Mingde explained: "She felt a little unwell, so she didn't come."
"Brother, sister-in-law is not feeling unwell, she just doesn't want to come over."
Yue Minghui is straightforward and always speaks his mind: "It's better if you don't come over, so that you don't say anything nonsense and make us unhappy."
"Keep your voice down, don't wake up Yaya." Wan Jiayin touched Yue Minghui's arm.
Yaya was still sleeping, and a group of people gathered around the crib, staring at her intently.
"This child changes every day. Look, our Yaya has become more beautiful."
Wan Jiayin hadn't seen Yaya for two days and was worried sick about her.
The same goes for Yue Guohuai. He has been in the hospital for the past two days and has had a full body check. Except for his heart, there are no other problems.
He will be scheduled for surgery in a few days. Before that, we will go to see a famous Chinese medicine doctor in Beijing to see if there is a better treatment plan.
But no matter what, it's good to find the problem early.
The doctors said that it was fortunate that it was discovered early, otherwise the disease would have been fatal if it had not yet occurred.
"Wake up, wake up, Yaya is awake."
Every time Yaya wakes up, she yawns, stretches, and then slowly opens her eyes.
When Yaya opened her eyes and saw so many people surrounding her, she was startled. But when she saw her grandparents coming, she immediately became happy and shook her little fists vigorously.
[I haven’t seen grandpa and grandma for two days. Yaya misses you so much. 】
[I wonder how Grandpa’s physical examination went? I'm so worried about grandpa. 】
[Yaya loves grandpa very much, I hope nothing happens to grandpa. 】
[But grandpa looks good. I should coax him more in the future. If he is happy, he will live a long life! 】
"Yaya, grandpa's sweet baby."
Yue Guohuai was deeply moved when he heard Yaya's voice.
He bent over, picked up Yaya, and kissed her little face.
Yue Mingyuan knew that Yaya would be hungry when she woke up, so he made milk powder for her.
After feeding Yaya, Wan Jiayin saw that it was almost time and everything was ready, but Shen Zhiqiu's parents had not come yet.
The more family members come to the "third day bath", the better it is for the child.
But it doesn't matter if they don't come. The family members who come should better give their blessings to the child. Judging from their attitude towards Zhiqiu, they probably won't give their blessings to Yaya sincerely.
"Dad, Mom, don't wait for my dad, he..."
Before Shen Zhiqiu could finish his words, a group of people rushed in in a hurry.
"Zhi Qiu!"
Shen Zhiqiu was very surprised: “Second uncle, aunt, sister Jiawen, Xiaowu!”
