The cubs had a good sleep and were then woken up by hunger. Qin Fei, who was standing by, saw this and immediately cut a small hole in the milk fruit he had prepared and put it into the mouths of the two cubs.
They seemed to know that this was their food, and instinctively opened their mouths to start sucking the milk fruit. The milk fruit is a common food used by insects to feed their newborn cubs. It is only the size of a fist and is purple in appearance. The older the fruit tree, the bigger and better the fruit it produces. The best quality milk fruit is pure jade purple in appearance, like purple jade.
Generally speaking, only fruit trees that are over a thousand years old can produce this kind of milk fruit. The two in Qin Fei's hand now are this kind of top-quality fruit. The Qin family has a milk fruit forest. The one in the center is tens of thousands of years old, but it has never shown any signs of bearing fruit. There are hundreds of trees that are over a thousand years old, and the rest are planted one after another. This is because the cubs need this kind of milk fruit from birth to the third metamorphosis, and the demand is really not small, so a lot of them are planted. Once a cub is born in the Qin family, they pick the milk fruit here.
Actually, the milk fruit is very similar to the one they found on the Aquamarine Star, but they sent it to the Qin family's research institute, and the specific data has not come out yet, let alone using it as food for the cubs. It was impossible at first, but now that the Zerg have been providing food for the cubs, it is another matter.
The liquid in the milk fruit is usually milky white, but these two are translucent. The two cubs were very satisfied with the food. They stretched out their chubby hands, firmly guarding their food and sucking it in big mouthfuls.
"Look at this little hand, how strong it is. He even knows that this is their food and he can protect it." Qin Lang praised.
"Cough." You seem to have just told me this. It's an instinct. Qin Fei coughed and blushed slightly.
Not long after, the two fist-sized milk fruits were eaten up. The two cubs were obviously not full yet, and they looked eagerly at Qin Fei who had just given them food.
Xi Yuan on the side quickly pulled out two more, made a small opening and handed them to them. The two cubs opened their toothless little mouths, quickly leaned forward, and began to suck on them in big gulps. After two milk fruits, they burped and finally filled their little stomachs.
"Well, being able to eat is a blessing." Lin Zishu said, turning his head, and said, "At that time you were full after eating one." He said to Qin Fei.
"Yes, I still remember that time I was afraid that you were not full, so I took another one for you, but you just waved your hand and turned your head away." Qin Lang also recalled.
"Female worm cubs eat more at the beginning. Qin Zhe and Qin Hong ate two or three each. Seeing you like this, I was a little worried that you wouldn't be full."
"..." Qin Fei was embarrassed, then changed the subject: "Father, do you want to hug them?"
= =
Xi Yuan⊙﹏⊙, who had been holding the cub carefully, didn't want to let go, but this was the male master's wish, so he handed the cub to Lin Zishu with a little reluctance.
Lin Zishu immediately reached out and held the cub in his arms, pressing his face against the cub's tender skin. Suddenly, he remembered something: "Who is the older brother?"
⊙▽⊙
Everyone was silent for a while, and then began to recall that they were both exposed in the middle at the same time, and no one stretched out his hand first. There was no obvious difference in appearance, so... who was the older brother?
"Why don't we weigh them? Whoever is heavier will be the older brother." Twins are too rare, and there is no way to ask other babies who have given birth to twins for advice, so I can only figure it out on my own.
"Okay, let's do it."
Finally, I took out their clothes and put them on two scales. The temperature in the room was constant anyway, so there was no need to worry about them catching a cold.
In the end, of the two cubs who both looked white and chubby and indistinguishable, the one with black hair and black eyes won by 0.01 grams, defeating his younger brother with dark green hair and becoming the older brother.
"It turns out that twins are so similar, even their weight is almost the same." Qin Jie, who has always been a man of few words, sighed.
"No, I don't remember it like that. Maybe this is a special case." Moose hesitated. He clearly remembered from the records that the sizes of twins were relatively obvious, and it was easy to distinguish between the big and small ones.
"Apart from the question of who is older and who is younger, Father Xiong, have you decided on their names?" Qin Hong asked.
Qin Lang was silent, as if he had forgotten about this matter. He immediately put his hands on his hair and closed his eyes.
"The original name is invalid. I need to think about it again." He murmured and walked out. He planned to go back to the study to look up information and give his precious grandson a good name that is nice, loud, and has a profound meaning.
"Let's call them Dabao and Xiaobao, then." Lin Zishu said, touching his brother in his arms. After eating and drinking, he seemed to be sleepy again and closed his big round eyes.
The younger brother was not sleepy yet. He stared at the colorful curtains without blinking. His silly and cute look was very adorable. Qin Fei couldn't help but hugged him tightly when he saw him.
The next day, after breakfast, I played with the two cubs for a while, listening to their babbling voices. I felt that time had passed in a flash, and soon I heard the news: "Prince Phoebe's carriage has arrived, and it will reach the Qin family's main residence in five minutes. In addition, when their spaceship was approaching the Earth planet, it encountered a drifting lifeboat. The lifeboat looked damaged on the outside, but there was still life inside. There was an injured male insect inside. We hope we can make preparations and provide treatment."
The Qin family's servant reported that Mus was also here.
He immediately stood up from his seat when he heard this and told his assistant: "Hurry up and prepare the treatment cabin, first aid equipment, and other corresponding equipment."
A lone injured male!!!
Not to mention that he is from the Male Insect Protection Association, which is committed to helping male insects. Even the others will lend a helping hand. Who dares to harm the male insects? Or did they also encounter interstellar pirates and had to escape in the lifeboat?
In a hurry, he took the corresponding equipment, got on the suspension car and rushed over. Qin Fei followed closely behind. Of course, the Qin family could not stand idly by.
Not long after, a male insect with various scars on its surface was seen lying in a transparent treatment chamber. He had a big swelling on his head with a lot of dried blood. He was unconscious and his face was pale.
Huh? Lin Zishu took a quick glance and then looked closely at the clothes the male insect was wearing. He felt that they looked familiar. Not the design of the clothes, but the emblem on the collar. Whose brand was it? He seemed to have seen it somewhere before.
"Is it from the Wen family's side branch?" Qin Lang was the first to speak out. That emblem was clearly the symbol of the Wen family, but the color was different from that of the main branch. The side branch's was dark purple, while the main branch's was bright purple.
"No wonder he looks familiar to me, he is from the Wen family." Lin Zishu suddenly realized.
The Wen family, Qin family, Bai family and other second-rate families. Apart from the very few first-rate families, there are many second-rate families, about dozens of them. Below these, there are thousands of third-rate families, and countless others that are not even up to par.
Qin Lang stared at the swollen face that was a little different from the original one for a long time, and finally shook his head: "I have no impression."
If it was someone from the main branch, or someone close to the main branch and talented, he would have a general impression of her, but now this face looks very unfamiliar.
Prince Phoebe then walked in with his entourage, with Qin Fei leading the way.
"I found the life capsule behind a meteorite that was heading towards the spaceship. After scanning, I discovered there were signs of life, so I intercepted it." Prince Phoebe said. There were already slight wrinkles on his face, indicating that this male insect was nearing the end of his life, but his face was peaceful and gentle, and one glance at him gave you the impression that he was a gentle elder.
"It seems that he had encountered some unfortunate things." Qin Lang stepped forward and greeted Prince Phoebe, and said respectfully.
Soon, a thin "mist" began to fall in the treatment chamber, and the mist slowly seeped into the swollen wounds. After a few breaths, the originally swollen wounds became much smoother, and the wounds that were broken and bleeding had scabs formed.
"Except for the more serious wounds on his forehead and shoulder, the rest are minor. It is inferred that his injuries were caused by hitting the rocks after entering the lifeboat. There are buffer devices inside the lifeboat, so they are not serious. The marks of these two injuries will be completely unnoticeable in a few days. Let him rest well now. He will wake up in about an hour."
"That's great." Prince Phoebe breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Qin Fei and the others.
"Congratulations, can I see the two cubs?" He made the request and there was no reason to refuse.
Xi Yuan turned around and went back to the room to bring them both out. They had just fallen asleep not long ago, and Xi Yuan put them both in a stroller and brought them over.
The cart is very cute. It was made by Lin Zishu himself. It is made of a precious wood that emits a fragrance and can repel mosquitoes. There are also various cute fruits carved on it.
Prince Phoebe stood in front of them and looked at them for a long time, then showed a sincere smile: "We have been waiting for this kind of good news for a long time." He suddenly had a small box in his hand and handed it to Qin Fei: "There are ten top-grade crystal cores, some magic plant fruits suitable for cubs to eat, and a certificate of honor awarded to you and your husband by our royal family. I hope you will continue to be great in the future and continue to add bricks and tiles to the number of male insects in our insect race."
Big deal!
This was Qin Fei's first thought. Ten top-grade crystal cores, this gift was definitely not light. When he heard about the honorary certificate, Qin Fei's eyes twitched slightly. Is this serious? Was it really because he gave birth to two male insect babies that he was awarded this prize? Or was it really awarded by the royal family? ! ? !
"There is a chip on the back of the certificate of honor. After you bind your computer number to that chip, you can enjoy a 20% discount on most products."
“!!!” Big, big deal!
At this moment, even Qin Lang's heart was slightly moved.
The 20% discount on most commodities actually means that daily necessities except for some sensitive materials, such as energy, weapons, etc. can enjoy discounts.
The Qin family needs countless supplies to run their business. If they use this card to purchase these supplies in the future, it will save the Qin family a huge amount of money over the course of each month!
"This..." Qin Fei hesitated.
"You deserve it, kid." Prince Phoebe smiled. "These awards have actually been announced at the beginning, but you are the first one to receive them so far."
