A girl with a flowered cloth ribbon on her head walked into the room. She was wearing a short shirt and floral trousers, with two thick black shiny pigtails that reached her hips. She was not tall, but very well-proportioned, so she still appeared to have long legs and a thin waist.
Her forehead is relatively wide, her nose is fleshy, her mouth is a bit big, but her lips are very plump. Although she is not very pretty, she has a pretty and refreshing smell. In her hand, she holds a bowl of steaming fish soup and cooks it.
It turned into a thick milky white color, and as soon as you entered the room, a scent hit your nostrils.
"It smells so good, Ping Nu, your cooking skills are pretty good."
Su Ying raised her head and smiled. She was about to give birth and had a big belly. There was also a little baby with pink makeup lying on the bed, wearing a braid that reached the sky, holding her head in her hands, sleeping soundly.
The girl named Ping Nu smiled and said: "Of course, no matter what kind of seafood is in my hands, I can make it fragrant. There are also a lot of fish brains added to this fish soup, which is very nourishing. The third sister's child also
She is pregnant again at such a young age, so she has to be more careful than ordinary people. Although the third sister is a martial arts practitioner and has a strong body, it is not a bad thing to take more supplements."
"Well, let's put it on the table first. It's too hot. Let it dry for a while."
Su Ying bit off the thread and put a half-sewed small flower jacket on the bed.
Su Ying originally didn't understand female celebrities, and she didn't even know much about cooking in the kitchen. But since she had a child, even though she could find someone to do it for her or buy it with money, she still hopes to make it for her baby.
After pricking her fingers many times, she is now able to do needlework skillfully.
"Xiao Siyang looks so cute when she sleeps."
Pingping put down the bowl, walked to the bed and bent down to look at the sleeping child: "Little guy, you are going to be a little sister soon, are you happy?"
The little girl on the bed babbled and frowned, as if she wanted to cry. After a while, she laughed twice, but she still fell asleep and did not wake up. Su Ying and Ping Nu both laughed, and Su Ying said: "
Siyang is sleeping with her mother-in-law, so don't pay attention to her."
As she spoke, she walked to the table, picked up the bowl and blew on it, trying to drink the fish soup. When she raised the bowl to her mouth, she suddenly stopped, put down the bowl, looked out the window, and said to herself: "Shuangyu"
A boat has arrived, it seems to be the boat from Tianyang. Has it brought something over again?"
"Really?"
When Ping Nu heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said happily: "I'll go greet him." After saying that, she went out happily.
Su Ying smiled slightly. Ping Nu was the woman she rescued from a ship. The person who rescued her at that time was He Tianyang. It could be seen that this girl had a special enthusiasm for He Tianyang from then on and seemed to like him.
After Pingnu went out, Su Ying picked up the bowl, sat by the bed and started drinking. She had just finished half of the bowl of rich fish soup. When the door opened, Pingnu stood there with shining eyes. Su Ying smiled.
He said: "Is it your Brother Tianyang who is here? What did you bring?"
"Send...send...send someone."
Ping Nu said hesitantly, then she stepped aside, and a man with a big beard stood out from behind.
Su Ying was a little strange at first, then looked carefully, the smile on her face gradually froze, and she almost dropped the soup bowl in her hand.
Yang Xu! It’s him...

"You had a child, why didn't you tell me?"
"Why should I tell you?"
"Why can't you tell me?"
"She...she is my child and has nothing to do with you. Why...should I tell you?"
Xia Xun's brows knitted into a big knot: "It has nothing to do with me? Can you give birth to a child by yourself?"
After a moment of panic, Su Ying's expression gradually stabilized, and she said forcefully: "I...my man has been dead for ten years, and I am in a pirate's den. Do you think I will be a widow? I can't be different."
man?"
Xia Xun's face darkened and he said, "Oh? So... where is your man? Point it out to me."
"He..., why should I point it out to you? We are just...just a casual marriage. You are not my man."
"That's not what you said the last time you saw me!"
"nonsense!"
Su Ying sneered and curled her lips: "When you are intimate with a woman, do you tell her about another woman?"
"I……"
Xia Xun was a little speechless, but he didn't believe what Su Ying said. Even though Su Ying was a female pirate in a pirate den, he didn't believe that Su Ying was that kind of loose woman. What's more, Su Ying was in panic and embarrassment when she first met him.
, but he was not ashamed of being caught in adultery. He was a little confused about Su Ying's mentality. If the two had the fruit of love, she might be excused for hiding it from herself, because she didn't want to marry into the Yang family and become a member of the Yang family.
What was the purpose of the young lady who never left the house but still denied it so blindly when she was discovered by him?
Xia Xun, who had arrived full of surprises, was really a little angry. He said with a gloomy face: "You'd better find him and confront me in court, otherwise, I won't believe you!"
He Tianyang lifted the lapel of his clothes and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and rushed over in a hurry: "The food and clothing for the third boss are all unloaded. If you need anything else, ask someone to make an order later and I will bring it back."
"He! It's him!"
Su Yingru saw the savior and grabbed He Tianyang. He Tianyang said in shock: "What is it about me?"
Su Ying did not answer, but waved her hand and said: "Okay, you go out first, Pingnu, you go out too."
"oh!"
Pingnu was very smart and noticed something was not right. She quickly pulled the fog and He Tianyang, who wanted to ask more questions, walked out and closed the door.
"Not my child?"
Xia Xun walked to the bedside, leaned over and looked at her: "Look at these eyebrows, look at these eyes, and this nose and mouth, they look exactly like me."
"Stop talking nonsense and go ahead. What can such a young child see?"
Su Ying rushed over with a guilty conscience and was about to push him away.
At this time, the little guy on the bed woke up, first opened his mouth and yawned, then stretched out with all his strength, then opened a pair of eyes as black as paint, and looked at Xia Xun curiously,
Definitely, I won’t cry either.
Xia Xun looked at the little baby and suddenly felt an inexplicable touch. A special feeling that he had never experienced before suddenly filled his body and mind. The half-fake and half-real anger on his face disappeared.
As if he was afraid of frightening the little baby, he looked at her quietly for a long time, then the corners of his mouth slowly raised up, and he smiled, from the bottom of his heart, involuntarily.
He felt a sense of connection between flesh and blood, the throbbing of blood and family affection.
In the past, whether in his previous life or this life, he was just a big boy. Some people say that in front of his woman, a man will remain a big boy who will not grow up all his life. However, in front of this tender little guy, he has grown up.
Yes, he has a reverence for the wonder and inheritance of life.
He is not an ancient person, and he does not care about the survival of his heirs and the inheritance of incense as much as the ancients did. However, facing his own flesh and blood, as a new father, he still felt the invisible power and wonderful feeling...
It seemed that Su Ying had sensed that wonderful power and didn't have the courage to push him anymore.
After a long time, the little guy lying on the bed became impatient with the bearded man who suddenly appeared. He opened his mouth and started crying. Then the two adults woke up. Xia Xun panicked and wanted to go.
Hug, but for such a small person with tender arms and legs, he didn't dare to touch her for fear of hurting her.
Su Ying hurriedly picked up the baby and called to a strong nanny at the door. The nanny took the baby and coaxed: "Oh, my baby Xiao Siyang, stop crying, feed her right away."
"Si Yang? Hey! Si Yang?"
As soon as the door closed, Xia Xun spoke in a narrow voice. Su Ying became nervous, and the lie was exposed. She pressed her back against the door, looked at Xia Xun warily, and shouted as if she was declaring sovereignty: "She is my daughter! You
Can’t take it away!”
"What?"
Xia Xun was stunned, and then he understood the reason why she denied the relationship between the child and him. He was a little funny at Su Ying's seriousness, but he suddenly figured out the reason, and was only touched in his heart, but could no longer laugh.
.
In ancient times, women were nothing more than fertility machines. In the world, only men took the initiative to abandon their wives, but it has never been heard that if a man divorced his wife, his children could also be taken away by the woman. The ownership of children, just like the confirmation of blood, is only based on the man.
On the one hand, women have no right to fight for it. This is not only the law, but also something that is regarded as a matter of course among the people.
Even pirates are still people in this world after all, and they cannot get rid of this invisible shackles. If Xia Xun wants to take away his flesh and blood, no one, not even the pirates, will think it is inappropriate, and Su Ying will not feel that she has any
She had no reason to fight with him confidently, so she desperately denied that the child was his flesh and blood. Looking at Su Ying's eyes that guarded against thieves, it seemed that as soon as she declared her ownership of the child, she would pounce on her and fight to the death. Xia Xun could only
Can helplessly smile.
"The world is in turmoil, and this island has become a paradise. I am not taking my family with me this time, and I don't want such a young child to follow me back to the Central Plains for adventure. I guarantee that she will be healthy here.
Grow up happily, and no one will take her away. If someone wants to take her away, I will work with you to protect her!"
When Xia Xun said these words, Su Ying was finally disarmed. She breathed a long sigh of relief and felt cold sweat break out on her back.
"Okay, you are a man, why do you want to meet me like this..."
Once she figured out the reason, Xia Xun had the upper hand this time. Seeing his sullen face, Su Ying panicked, grabbed his arm and begged for mercy in disguise.
After talking for a long time, the two people's flirting brought their feelings back to the previous level, and then they sat down to talk about serious things.
"What! Are you going to take risks in Jinling again?"
"It's risky, but not necessarily."
Xia Xun smiled and said: "No matter what my original plan was, when things have reached this point, I have no choice but to make progress. If I step back, everything I have done will be in vain. If I step forward, I must choose what I am good at."
Don’t worry, I have already thought of an identity. It turns out that people I know well in the capital basically have no chance to interact with me. Didn’t you see that I haven’t shaved off my beard?”
"What identity?"
"Envoys from other countries, what do you think... of Liuqiu? Ryukyu is not a big place, and now it is divided into three kingdoms. It is a mess, and the court is not comfortable with the situation there. What do you think if I pretend to be a prince of Liuqiu?
It’s a pity that I’m not familiar with the customs and clothing there. If I want to pretend, it’s best to find a few reliable Liuqiu people to go with me..."
The look on Su Ying's face suddenly became strange. Xia Xun couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"
Su Ying said: "I don't have Prince Liuqiu here, but I have Princess Liuqiu. I wonder if I can help you?"
"What!"
Xia Xun jumped up and said in surprise: "Really? How come you have... is she reliable?"
Su Ying said: "You just met her, the girl who was following He Tianyang."
Xia Xun suddenly said: "It's her. What's her face? She's Princess Liuqiu. I thought she was the maid next to you."
Su Ying said disapprovingly: "Ryukyu is not big in the first place. It was split into three kingdoms, and it is even smaller and pitiful. Its territory and strength are not even as strong as ours. When our Shuangyu ship arrives in Ryukyu, their officials and even the king have to pay respect.
Respectfully. Pingnu's kingdom is even smaller, let's call her a princess. Her father manages a territory and a population similar to that of Yanguan Town. Do I still treat her like a golden branch? However, she is a princess.
But it's the real deal.
Liuqiu now has three kingdoms. We call them Shannan Kingdom, Zhongshan Kingdom and Shanbei Kingdom. There are actually many small kingdoms in the north of Liuqiu. They should be like the chieftains in Yunnan and Guizhou. Their power is smaller than these three kingdoms. Pingnu is one of the small kingdoms.
Princess. Her kingdom was destroyed by the Zhongshan Kingdom. She escaped to the sea in a boat and was chased by the people of the Zhongshan Kingdom. It was my boat that saved her. The Zhongshan Kingdom saw that it was me, Shuangyu, who rescued people, so
I don't dare to make things difficult for her anymore.
Now, her kingdom has been annexed by the Zhongshan Kingdom. She only has a dozen servants who were rescued by me. She no longer dares to dream about returning to the country. Now she is determined to stay with me. I am
If her savior asks her to do something, she will definitely agree."
Xia Xun was overjoyed and said: "I have gone through all the iron shoes and found nowhere, and it took no effort to get here. This is wonderful. Originally, I wanted to borrow your boat and go to Liuqiu to see it in person and get a few people to come over. This is great."
Well, if this Ping Nu can really be used by me, it will save a lot of effort."
She just misunderstood that Xia Xun came to take away her sweetheart, which made Xia Xun very unhappy. Although Xia Xun was pretending, Su Ying was still flustered. Now she just wants to be nice and please her little man.
, upon hearing what he said, Su Ying immediately stood up and walked over, opened the door, and saw a woman walking by the door. Su Ying said, "Aunt He, ask Ping Nu to come see me."
After closing the door and looking back, she saw Xia Xun staring at her with burning eyes. Su Ying said coyly: "What are you looking at?"
Xia Xun said: "My eldest daughter, is her name Siyang?"
Su Ying's face heated up: "Why, no?"
"Okay, of course!"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "The one in my belly is going to be called Sixia!"
Su Ying asked suspiciously: "Sixia? Sixia...what's the point of this name?"
Xia Xun said: "Of course it is said that the eldest brother must be named Siyang, and the second child must be named Sixia, otherwise I will lose the money?"
Su Ying said doubtfully: "What are you talking about? Why did you lose the money? Even if you want to be ranked in spring, summer, autumn and winter, you should..."
Su Xun said funny: "What should it be? Can it be called Sichun?"
"Uh..." Su Ying was a little embarrassed when she heard it: "If it's a boy, that's fine. If it's a girl, I don't think it sounds good to call her Sixia."
"Um……"
Xia Xun thought for a while, waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's call it Si Xun. Si Xun, right? It's suitable for both men and women, that's it!"
