"This..." Li Chengze didn't care about being a leader or superior at this moment. He wiped his hands on his clothes and then stepped forward to gently poke the eldest brother's chubby cheeks.
really!
Just as he expected, it was soft, like cotton candy!
He was instantly hooked, poking the little face, pinching the little hands, and holding the little feet. Seeing the little guy looking at him with his innocent and bewildered eyes, he was overjoyed.
"Sir, look, he's not afraid of me! This kid is really brave! He's so young and he's not afraid of strangers at all. He doesn't cry or make a fuss at all."
After saying that, he looked at Liu Guilan expectantly, "Auntie, can I hug him?"
Liu Guilan laughed and said, "Why not!"
After Liu Guilin finished explaining how to hold the baby, Li Chengze listened attentively. After picking up the eldest child, he proudly showed off to Elder Zhong as if he had accomplished some great feat: "Commander, look, look, I picked him up!"
Old Zhong snorted coldly: "Shutting around like that, never seen the world before!"
After saying that, he recalled what Liu Guilan had just taught him, picked up the second child, and gently weighed him in his arms, making the second child giggle.
Old Zhong immediately gave Li Chengze a smug look, as if he had won a battle.
See that?
The kid smiled at me!
Not to be outdone, Li Chengze patted the eldest child in his arms and said, "Chen'an, I'm your Uncle Chengze, give your uncle a smile!"
Huo Chen'an was in a good mood now that he had eaten his fill. Whether he really understood or was influenced by his second son, he also chuckled.
The two men, each holding a baby, were laughing like idiots.
Little Yunshu, lying in her crib, was woken up. She glanced at her two older brothers and saw that they were being held by strangers. Just as she was about to burst into tears, she saw her grandmother, Liu Guilan, standing next to her with a smile. She immediately calmed down, rubbed her little fists by her ears, yawned, and closed her eyes to go back to sleep.
These two are so noisy in broad daylight!
After removing the poison from Chu Zhao, Ye Weiwei took his pulse and said, "Two more treatments and it will be completely cleared. All that's left is to slowly replenish his vital energy through diet."
After Chu Zhao started removing the poison these past few days, the little bit of qi and blood he had managed to replenish recently depleted again. If it weren't for Ye Weiwei's generosity in providing good medicinal herbs, prescribing various suitable medicinal diets to nourish him while occasionally using her supernatural abilities to help him, how could he have endured the pain of removing the poison so easily?
Chu Liang added the medicinal herbs for the bath given by Ye Weiwei to the water that had been boiled earlier, and waited for 15 minutes before Chu Zhao took the bath.
Chu Zhao said weakly, "Thank you, Weiwei."
Ye Weiwei waved her hand: "You were brought by my uncle, so there's no need to be polite with me."
Chu Zhao looked disappointed. "I thought my identity as my cousin was already out in the open."
Ye Weiwei shrugged. "Sure, anyway, just by looking at your face, I know you're destined for greatness. It's not bad to latch onto a powerful figure beforehand."
Chu Zhao couldn't help but burst out laughing, and then almost fainted. Ye Weiwei quickly patted him on the shoulder. Seeing that Chu Zhao had recovered, she said, "I was just saying it casually. Look how scared you were."
Chu Zhao was speechless. "I didn't expect you to know physiognomy! But I take your words seriously. I wasn't scared just now; I wish I had a divine healer like you as my sister! You gave me my life, and I would do anything for you!"
Ye Weiwei laughed: "Alright, alright, stop talking about dying or anything, you're ruining my reputation! You should rest well, I'll go and entertain the guests."
"Okay, you can go ahead and get busy."
When Ye Weiwei came out of the courtyard, she saw Li Chengze and Old Master Zhong playing with their two children. Just as she was about to go up and greet them, she heard Old Master Zhong exclaim "Ouch!"
It turned out that the second child had peed all over him.
Liu Guilan was so frightened that she rushed to take the child away, apologizing repeatedly.
Old Zhong waved his hand dismissively and laughed loudly, "What's the big deal? This is boy's urine!"
Li Chengze was looking at the large map on Zhong Lao's stomach and was about to secretly rejoice when he felt a heat on his belly. He looked down and, lo and behold, he had won the lottery too.
Old Zhong laughed heartily as he saw Little Li keeping him company: "These two little guys, they even seem to have planned to pee together."
Liu Guilan looked apologetic, but still asked the two to put the child down. Then she asked Ye Weiwei to find Huo Xiao's clothes for the two to change into, and washed their clothes.
"You must be Comrade Ye Weiwei?" When Elder Zhong saw Ye Weiwei, he smiled and looked her up and down, praising her, "Indeed, a good comrade."
Ye Weiwei deliberately kept a straight face and asked, "Really? Then, compared to the other women you introduced to Huo Xiao, who is better?"
Grandpa Zhong was taken aback, then couldn't help but burst into laughter again, "Little Li, did you see that? It's true what they say, like attracts like. This couple is both formidable, and they've come to settle scores with this old man!"
After speaking, he straightened his clothes, saluted Ye Weiwei, and said sincerely, "Comrade Ye Weiwei, I was too rash before and made a very serious mistake, causing you trouble. I express my deepest apologies for this. I'm sorry!"
Ye Weiwei was taken aback by his gesture. She stepped aside to avoid the bow, then pretended to cough. "Since you are sincerely apologizing, I will reluctantly accept it."
When Liu Guilan heard Ye Weiwei say this, she was afraid that Zhong Lao would be angry, after all, such a high-ranking leader had taken the initiative to apologize.
So she quickly and quietly tugged at Ye Weiwei's clothes, signaling her to tone it down.
To everyone's surprise, Grandpa Zhong laughed even louder after hearing Ye Weiwei's words. "No wonder so many women in the army couldn't handle that brat Huo Xiao, but you won him over as soon as he got home! You have the same temper as that brat, both of you are full of guts!"
Now that he holds a high position, those around him are afraid of his status and often speak carefully and cautiously, which often makes him feel tired and uncomfortable. It is rare to meet Huo Xiao and Ye Weiwei, who are genuine and unafraid of him. It feels like their relationship has been brought closer at once.
Looking at Ye Weiwei, I feel a sense of familiarity.
Ye Weiwei was not modest at all, saying, "It's just so-so."
Grandpa Zhong's laughter seemed unstoppable.
Li Chengze secretly gave Ye Weiwei a thumbs up.
He hadn't seen his leader's genuinely relaxed smile in a long time.
"I came in a hurry and don't have anything good to bring, but I prepared some small gifts for the three children."
As he spoke, he took out a small cloth bag from his pocket, opened it, and took out three small bronze medals.
This small bronze plaque is shaped like a shield, with an engraving on the front depicting a torch at the bottom and a red flag at the top. The inscription on the back reads, "Heroes and heroines, passing on the torch."
The signature is Mr. Zhong's name, along with the date.
