Chapter 31 Sister
Shitou was still hoping that his young master would get better soon, so naturally he couldn't let Lu Chengjing go into the mountains and work hard.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "I remember there's a book in the young master's collection that talks about herbs. I'll find it and take a look. I'll try not to make the wrong choice when we get into the mountains."
That night, Shang Wan almost emptied Lu Chengjing's study. Knowing that books and paper were expensive in this world, she didn't leave even a piece of waste paper. The book that Shi Tou mentioned was among the pile of books that Shang Wan brought back.
At least they found a source of income other than hunting, and Shang Wan was quite satisfied with the results of this meeting.
Lu Chengjing told Shitou to go into the city tomorrow to deliver a message to Qiao Yu'an, and told him to visit several pharmacies before leaving the city to ask what medicines they sell.
Shi Tou wrote them down one by one.
Xiaohuan made tea, Lu Chengjing took the medicine, and the three of them drank tea.
After drinking a bowl of bitter medicine, Lu Chengjing frowned slightly and his face turned paler.
Shang Wan stuffed a candied fruit into his mouth, which he had brought back from the Lu family.
The sweetness of the candied fruit suppressed the bitterness of the medicine. Lu Chengjing's brows relaxed, and he leaned lightly on the soft pillow behind him, tilting his head to look at Shang Wan, "Why do they call you sister?"
This was a question he had since he saw Shi Tou after being released from prison, but he never had the chance to ask.
"We are all family, of course I should call you sister, otherwise I should call you mom?" Shang Wan raised her hand and touched her face. She is not that old, right?
Just as the voice fell, a soft voice came from outside the door, "Cold!"
The kid crying for his mother is here.
When Yuanyuan woke up and saw no one, she didn't cry. She climbed down from the kang by herself and let Xiaohui carry her to the door of the wing room. Her little fleshy hands slammed the wooden door, making a loud bang.
Shang Wan was just about to go over to open the door for her when he heard a few "clicks" and the old door panel cracked.
The little hands outside the door continued to clap.
then……
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The dilapidated wooden door broke into several pieces and fell to the ground, leaving the victim with his eyes wide open.
Shang Wan: The door should have been replaced long ago.
Lu Chengjing: My daughter’s strength is indeed abnormal.
Xiaohuan: Luckily it fell inside and didn’t hit Yuanyuan.
Stone: How much does it cost to buy a new door panel?
The round little hands were still raised in the air. Seeing that the thing blocking the way was gone, his big eyes lit up. He quickly patted Xiao Hui and went into the house smoothly.
"Mom! Dad!"
The little baby was so excited. Seeing that everyone was looking at the door panel on the ground, he also looked over and patted his chest with his little hands, "Woah! Great!"
Four people: "..." You are quite proud.
Shang Wan felt that his cub might be useful when demolishing the house.
"Hug me!" Yuanyuan stretched out her short arms towards Shang Wan.
Shang Wan picked the person up and saw that the little guy was smiling with his eyes curved. He just patted his butt twice and considered that he had taught him a lesson.
Yuanyuan rubbed her butt, rolled into her father's arms using her hands and feet, raised her cute little face and said, "Daddy!"
Lu Chengjing skillfully lowered his head and kissed her little round face. Yuanyuan grinned, revealing two small teeth. She decisively abandoned her father and returned to her mother Xiangxiang's arms.
The abandoned Lu Chengjing: "..."
Shang Wan smiled secretly, pinched the little guy's chubby cheeks, removed the gauze on his arm and took a look.
The wound has already scabbed over. At this rate of recovery, the scab will probably fall off tomorrow.
Shang Wan felt relieved and wrapped the gauze back on to prevent the little guy from scratching the wound.
Thinking of Lu Chengjing's question just now, Shang Wan said to the two people opposite: "Don't call him Young Master from now on. You should also change his name for him."
Xiaohuan and Shitou looked at each other and shouted in unison, "Brother-in-law!"
The voice was so loud.
Lu Chengjing's body stiffened, and he almost fell off the soft pillow. Shang Wan helped to support him, and then made the final decision, "It sounds like we are a family. Let's call each other that from now on."
"Jie...huh." Yuanyuan also joined in the fun, grabbing Lu Chengjing's wide sleeves with her little fleshy hands and calling out with a smile.
Lu Chengjing's forehead suddenly had a row of black lines.
"Hahaha!" Shang Wan and the other two laughed so hard that they pounded the kang.
Lu Chengjing rubbed the little guy's head and said softly, "Yuanyuan, you have to call me daddy."
She opened her round little mouth and called out crisply, "Sister!"
Lu Chengjing: "..."
"My dear, we are of different generations." Shang Wan stretched out his index finger to scratch the round and soft flesh on his chin, "You have to call me daddy."
Yuanyuan's little head shrank back from the itch, and she repeated, "Daddy."
"So smart." Shang Wan leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, then turned her towards Lu Chengjing, "Come on, shout again."
The big round eyes blinked, "Sister!"
Lu Chengjing, who was forced to downgrade his generation: "..."
Yuanyuan was very persistent in learning the new words. She would crawl in front of Lu Chengjing and shout "jiehu" from time to time, and she didn't stop until dinner time.
Lu Chengjing narrowed his eyes slightly, and when little Yuanyuan was enjoying the egg custard, he took away the small bowl in front of her.
Yuanyuan: ???
"Dandan." The little guy pouted and glared at his father accusingly.
Lu Chengjing held the bowl, his expression calm, not like he was bullying a baby at all, "Call daddy."
Yuanyuan's eyes widened and she slammed her hands on the table, "Dandan!"
Lu Chengjing was unmoved, "Call me daddy."
Soft and tender little voice: "Dandan!"
A gentle and calm male voice: "Call me daddy."
The two of them exchanged blows and continued to fight.
Shang Wan was surprised by what she saw. She turned her head and asked Shitou quietly, "Did this father and daughter get along like this before?"
His sister didn't like Yuanyuan before, but she didn't know it was normal. Shitou said, "When Yuanyuan refused to turn over on her own, refused to learn to crawl, refused to learn to talk, her brother-in-law did the same thing."
Xiao Huan was curious: "Who won more?"
"Brother-in-law." Shi Tou's expression was hard to describe.
Shang Wan looked at the two men, one big and one small, who were still fighting each other and asked Shitou, "How long will it take them?"
Shitou: "Until Yuanyuan changes her mind."
Shang Wan: “…”
Yuanzi, you have suffered a lot for having such a persistent father.
Just as Shitou said, the confrontation between the father and daughter ended when Yuanyuan changed her words.
"Daddy." Yuanyuan was so angry that her cheeks puffed up and tears welled up in her eyes, about to fall.
Lu Chengjing was experienced enough to know that the little guy wouldn't cry at this moment, so he returned the bowl.
Yuanyuan quickly protected her small bowl and turned to Shang Wan to complain: "Mom! Dad, you are so bad! Qihuwo!"
She is now a girl with a backer!
Shang Wan was just about to help his child when Lu Chengjing suddenly looked over, his eyebrows slightly curved and a faint smile on his lips. His already handsome face became even more vivid, making Shang Wan dizzy.
Shang Wan: Son, it’s not that mommy doesn’t want to help you, the palms and backs of my hands are all made of flesh!
Thanks to her father's honey trap, Yuanyuan's first attempt to complain ended in failure.
The little guy was very angry and decided to send a mouse to bite a hole in his father's clothes at night.
But what about the mice?
Yuanyuan rode Xiaohui and searched every corner of the yard.
Why is there not even a mouse in such a big house?
The next day, Shitou drove the ox cart into the city early in the morning.
After Shang Wan added the spiritual spring water into the medicine, he carried Yuanyuan out.
The diligent farmers had already gone to work in the fields. When they saw Shang Wan, some looked at her curiously, while others greeted her, "Where are you going, Madam Shang?"
