After returning, Eric and Chen Yanning led the remaining fifty guards to continue protecting them until they returned to the main planet, and the two of them never left the war fortress again after that.
Since the meal on Houtu Star, Xi Yuan has started the so-called "glutton" mode. He eats an unusually large amount of food every time. In addition to sleeping more deeply at night than before, even the original sleep time has become longer, and it has returned to its original normal state. There is nothing else unusual. Regarding Xi Yuan's current ability to eat, Lin Zishu said that this is normal. The testicles in his stomach are in a period of rapid development at this time. From a small cell to a fist or palm-sized testicle, it relies on the nutrients taken in by the female body.
Qin Fei was worried, so he went to the military doctor for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said everything was normal. He could eat whatever he wanted without any worries. Qin Fei was completely relieved.
Qin Lang and Lin Zishu kept the habit of video chatting with Xi Yuan every day to talk about his feelings and changes today. Lin Zishu was an experienced person. He had given birth to three litters, and was one of the few female insects that gave birth to many cubs. Most of them only had one or two cubs, so he was experienced. Some of his advice opened Xi Yuan's eyes and he gained a lot. He became more confident about how to make the cubs grow healthily.
In fact, Lin Zishu should have pointed out these things and reminded Xi Yuan to pay attention, but he didn't need to be so detailed and careful as to explain everything clearly. Generally speaking, this is the responsibility of the female insect's father. After all, his father would trust these things more and accept them more quickly. However, Xi Yuan's biological father and mother both died on the battlefield. As a good friend of his father, he couldn't stand idly by. Moreover, Xi Yuan was carrying the first egg of his grandson, Qin Fei, his own cub, so naturally he had to be more careful.
Qin Fei was the same. He would touch Xi Yuan's still flat belly every day, touching it over and over again without getting tired of it. Then he would read a lot of books to him, talk a lot to him, teach him how to be a good bug, and play some lyrical music. It was said that these music could help the cubs, soothe their emotions, and promote their development.
Xi Yuan is in a bright mood every day. Seeing his male master and his relatives around him circling around him every day, he can't help but sigh. No wonder many female insects say that the happiest time in their lives is when they are pregnant with eggs. Generally speaking, the female insects feel the strongest sense of happiness at this time, and are basically the center of their family, relatives and friends.
Xi Yuan was originally Qin Fei's only female monarch. He was also a considerate and good male monarch, gentle and considerate. His mood had never been bad every day. But during this period, his mood had risen to a higher level than before. Qin Fei also looked at Xi Yuan happily. It was said that the physical condition and mood index of the female insect would also affect the testicles. Of course, the better the mood, the better it would be.
In such days, time seemed to pass by very quickly. Xi Yuan only felt that it was not long before he saw Qin Lang and Lin Zishu. He went to greet them with a smile. Lin Zishu took the initiative to give him a hug, and then said to him gently: "How do you feel now? You will be due in a few days."
"Thank you for your concern, I think everything is fine. I have a doctor by my side who is always paying attention to my current situation. Please don't worry."
"Don't worry, father. I watch over Xi Yuan every day. He will be fine."
"Good, very good." Qin Lang nodded with satisfaction as he watched the scene. He had two things going for him. First, Qin Fei was back, and second, he would soon be promoted to a grandfather. His cubs were born relatively late among his friends, especially the males. As long as his friends had males, they had already grown up to be adults, and the one closest to him was almost a hundred years old. However, his grandson fought hard, and even if he didn't win the first prize, he was still one of the ones who "upgraded" earlier among his friends. Since the news was announced, his friends looked at him differently.
As Xi Yuan's due date got closer, Qin Fei became more and more nervous. He was thinking about what it would be like when a female insect laid eggs. Although the eggs of the insect race were not big, there had never been, oh, no, it should be said that there were only a handful of bad things that happened during childbirth in the history of the insect race, and the most recent example was thousands of years ago. There was only one case of death from laying eggs, and that was the result of the female insect giving birth while being seriously injured. It was rumored that she would not live long.
So it should be smooth sailing, but the feelings of an expectant father are so hard to understand.
As time went by, Qin Fei became more and more nervous, always feeling that if he made a mistake, Xi Yuan might do something he didn't want to see. Compared to his nervousness, Xi Yuan was much calmer, or in other words, except for Qin Fei, the other insects were also very calm. They were more welcoming of the joy of the new life, and were looking forward to different speculations about whether he was male or female. None of them were as overly nervous as Qin Fei.
I just think Qin Fei is too young, and it’s his first time being a father, so he’s too nervous, but he will be fine in the future.
Qin Lang and Lin Zishu were accompanied by insects from the military and the Male Insect Protection Association. As soon as they arrived, they were given a full body examination and asked some questions about their experiences. The military insects had submitted a new list of guards. Oh, no, there should be a hundred now. They felt that the original 50 were not safe, and everyone's ability level had risen to a higher level, more than three times the original strength. This was a huge investment. The Male Insect Protection Association brought a lot of special nutrients and special facilities for the cubs.
And almost everyone in the Male Insect Protection Association knows how to take care of male insects and male baby insects. If the eggs they lay are male, they can provide the best care.
Besides them, they were accompanied by a large number of top-level doctors from their own hospitals and a large number of high-quality child products, determined to provide the best things for their future grandchildren. When Qin Fei and Xi Yuan took over the 50-cubic-meter space button, they learned that it was full of items suitable for egg testing from the beginning to the age of three.
Qin Fei paced nervously outside the operating room. He had just finished breakfast this morning. Xi Yuan wiped his mouth and dropped a bomb on the rest of the people at the table: "Accompany me to the operating room now. I should be giving birth soon."
Qin Fei's mind was blank at that moment, and then he stood up in a hurry, knocking over the stool and rubbing a glass of drink. He rushed to Xi Yuan's side and pressed his shoulders, then suddenly hugged him and ran to the operating room that was ready at any time. The other doctors had already rushed over quickly. In a few minutes, they all put on their clothes and sterilized them. Originally, they went in together. The doctor pushed Xi Yuan into the big bed first, and then "politely" asked Qin Fei to come out. Qin Fei was not their opponent, and was easily sent to the door. He watched the door of the operating room being closed in front of him, as if he was still worried about locking it.
Qin Fei blinked violently, staring at the door with sore eyes. He nervously asked the people around him: "Brother, Xi Yuan will be fine, right? Nothing will happen, right? He will definitely be fine, right?"
Lin Zishu, who was standing next to him, said: …
I'm so big and standing next to you, how can you admit your mistake?
Qin Ze, who happened to be standing opposite him several steps away, was also speechless.
Then the next second he looked at Bai Huai beside him. What would the male master do if he was pregnant with eggs? He would definitely be very happy. When would he be destined to have a baby? His male insect was always a well-known good male master. Would he be the same if he had eggs? Although he looked a little silly, it showed that he cared. Actions speak a thousand times more than words.
Qin Fei felt that the time was very long, but in fact it was quite short. It was only 15 minutes from the time Xi Yuan entered the operating room to the time he came out. At this time, the doctor pushed a small cart with a pink oval egg-shaped machine on it. The top and bottom parts below the middle were metallic in color, and the rest was transparent, so you could clearly see a palm-sized egg floating in the liquid inside. At a speed visible to the naked eye, the soft egg skin became harder and harder until it grew into a very standard oval egg. The nutrient solution inside was milky white, so the color of the egg itself was very light, but it was still visible.
The balls are colored. What does this mean?
Male insect!!!
Qin Lang and Lin Zishu smiled very unrestrainedly, their eyes glued to the incubator, unwilling to pull them out. For a moment, congratulations to them continued.
Qin Fei looked at the incubator on the left in a daze, and then looked at Xi Yuan on the right. Xi Yuan's face was rosy now, and there was a smile on his face. He was covered with a quilt and his clothes were changed, but he didn't look weak at all, not at all like a person who had just given birth. Is this normal? Are all female insects so strong? In fact, Xi Yuan was just an exception. He took good care of himself, provided good things for his cubs, and kept himself in good condition, so it was so smooth.
Moose, the leader of the Male Insect Protection Association, was also very happy. There was another male insect cub with great potential! He said to Qin Fei: "Congratulations! You are so lucky to have a male insect cub in your first litter!"
"Oh, thank you, are they all right?" Qin Fei's eyes were a little busy.
"Yes, don't worry, they are all fine, and have been tested. Egg is just born now, and needs to be soaked in special nutrient solution for a day. By this time tomorrow, we can change to another nutrient solution, and then see its color. As long as the color becomes lighter, we can inject an appropriate amount. Don't worry, we will observe the situation inside at any time to ensure that the cubs inside will get the most adequate nutrition!"
