Qiuqiu's interest in the box only lasted less than a quarter of an hour. She raised her head and said, "Elder Li, please bring me a glass of water." She added, "It's warm."
The newborn was so cute. His tiny face felt like it was only as big as her fist, and the skin on his face was more delicate than freshly condensed water tofu. Qiuqiu kissed him gently, not daring to use force at all for fear of
Crush him to pieces.
"Elder Li?"
No one answered.
Qiuqiu looked out the window in surprise. It was dark outside, as if it was already late at night. Except for the slight sound of wind and the chirping of birds in the distance, no other sounds could be heard.
Where is Elder Li? Where are the others?
Qiuqiu pushed Shi'er and motioned for him to look up.
"Where are Elder Li and the others?"
Where have everyone gone?
Through the window, there was no one outside Fengxian Pavilion, and it was unusually quiet.
Shi'er first walked to the short table in front of the long window, poured a glass of water and handed it to Qiuqiu.
After receiving the water, Qiuqiu put all the questions behind her in an instant and concentrated on feeding the child water.
And Shi'er looked out at the night through the long window.
The vast unknown outside and the warmth inside Fengxian Pavilion are two completely different worlds.
Qiuqiu fed the child some water. Newborn children generally cannot open their eyes, and it takes two or three days to open their eyes, but this child looked different. After Qiuqiu fed him some water, he just wanted to open his eyes.
After wrapping it up again, the child's eyes were opened just a slit.
Qiuqiu's movements suddenly stopped.
Although he didn't open his eyes wide, you could see that the child's eyes were clear in black and white. They didn't look ignorant or chaotic at all.
What a pair of beautiful eyes.
Qiuqiu is very self-aware. With her handsome appearance, she would be considered top-notch in a small town. But as soon as she arrived at Ziyu Pavilion or a place like Jiufeng, she was immediately lost to everyone.
But this kid...well, he's not like her.
He looks more like his father.
This is a good thing! Shi'er's appearance is obvious to all. Even his enemies have to admit that he is indeed outstanding in appearance. His demeanor and appearance are like those of orchids and jade trees, which make people forget their vulgarity.
Qiuqiu's description of this is: the male version of Little Dragon Girl.
If the child looks like his father, he will definitely be a handsome boy in the future, which is a great thing.
But when she thought about the fact that she was the one who conceived and gave birth to the child, she worked so hard. The child she gave birth to resembled her father, and her own characteristics were not inherited and inherited. Qiuqiu could not help but feel aggrieved about "whoever worked hard is busy for whom."
feel.
It's like someone who worked hard and endlessly to write a paper, and finally the paper was published, but in the end it was not his own name that was signed.
Shi'er turned his head and Qiuqiu waved to him: "Come and take a look."
The little guy's eyes were wide open. Black and white were clear and they looked so clear.
"Look at him. How beautiful he is. His eyes look so clean."
Although she was filled with countless words of praise, the last thing Qiuqiu said were words of intuition.
Perhaps the clearest and clearest time in a person's life is when he is just born and opens his eyes to see the world.
Although he may not be able to see anything clearly at this time.
But this is a fearless attempt.
Because I didn’t understand anything, I was full of curiosity and enthusiasm for everything.
Qiuqiu looked at him intently, her eyes filled with love and affection that she didn't even notice.
No matter how you look at it, you can't get enough of it. No matter how you look at it, you feel that there is no more adorable child than him in the world.
Shi'er knelt on one knee beside her. The two of them looked at the child with their heads together, as if it was the most important thing in the world and the only thing worthy of their attention.
Like all new parents, they instantly fell into the role of silly father and silly mother.
"Look into his eyes."
"Look at the nose..."
"The mouth is so small..."
"The hands are so small, you see, there are fingernails." Qiuqiu also specially turned his feet out to see: "There are ten toes."
Shi'er asked seriously: "Aren't there ten toes?"
"Didn't you know someone could have an extra baby?"
Shi'er had never paid attention to such a thing before, and was greatly surprised when he heard this: "There is actually one more child!"
"Yes, I have seen it before. And I heard that if both the father and the mother have had a child, or if a relative has had a child, the child is likely to be a certain length of time."
Shi'er quickly said: "I have never heard of such a person among my parents."
"I don't think I have one at home either."
Shi'er also carefully looked at his son's feet in his hands to make sure there was no one more or one missing. Then Qiuqiu wrapped the child again and held it in her arms.
"What's going on outside?" She was now in the mood to care about things outside her body.
Shi'er helped her stand up.
Although Qiuqiu was in crisis when she gave birth to her child, now she has regained her strength and is no longer troubled by inability to move.
Through the open window, you can see the vast expanse outside Fengxian Pavilion, with stars hanging on the dark sky. They are so close to you, as if you can reach out and pick out a handful of stars.
But outside the window of Fengxian Pavilion, it is clear that there is a mountainous field with mountains in the distance. Herons and birds hang out on the river beach, which is full of life.
But now there is no sound outside, and the silence is so heart-stopping.
Where are they...?
She just gave birth to a child, and the world outside turned upside down.
The window is a world she is familiar with. She is familiar with every piece of grass and paper here. She feels extremely at ease staying here.
Because her lover is here.
Now, there are children.
And outside the window, there is a completely unfamiliar world.
The child in his arms moved.
Qiuqiu immediately lowered her head to look at him.
The child was fine, probably tired, breathing evenly and slowly, and had fallen asleep again.
I don’t know why, such a soft and warm little ball, a weak and harmless baby, gives Qiuqiu great comfort and courage. As long as he is there, she is not afraid of anything. Even if there are many difficulties ahead
risk.
"Is this... still the Nine Peaks?"
The two of them sat in front of the long window, looking out at the unknown.
The colors of the sky curtain are deep and strange, like the spice plate of an oil painting that has been knocked over, with all kinds of rich and pure colors mixed together.
This is definitely not Jiu Feng.
Qiuqiu has never seen such a night sky, and of course Shier has never seen it either.
Qiuqiu looked at the sky, a little puzzled: "I heard that others were struck by lightning and electric shock when they ascended. Are we... considered to have ascended?"
Shi'er gave her an affirmative answer.
"But……"
Why is it different from other people's procedures? How come everyone else has gone through the same hurdle, why haven't they?
However, it seems that no one else has ever heard of anyone holding a child and ascending together.
Qiuqiu's character is not one to go to extreme lengths. After she was puzzled, she became optimistic again: "If you don't want to chop, I won't chop."
It's a good thing not to chop her. She won't want to be hacked for nothing. An adult may be hacked half to death, but a child can't stand it.
There's another good thing.
"Fengxianju is also flying with us?"
I heard that most people who ascend cannot take away their personal belongings. Some magic weapons, famous swords, etc. will be left behind, let alone properties, caves, and the like.
Qiuqiu looked at Fengxian Pavilion again. She suddenly felt that they were so unique. How difficult it is to buy a house these days, especially when they bring a family with them. They are no better than other bachelors who can just find a cave, a tree branch or something to live in.
Fengxian Pavilion is not an ordinary house. It looks like there are only two ordinary rooms, but there is a cave inside the house. Adults don't need to eat, drink or have sex. But children don't understand this.
For example...Qiuqiu now feels a sudden heat in her arms.
This familiar feeling made her understand immediately.
Pee.
Both my younger brother and younger sister had peed on her before, even when holding a baby. This was inevitable.
She put the child down and untied the swaddling clothes. Shi'er followed and stretched his head to look.
"What's wrong with him?"
"I wet myself. I need to change it..." Qiuqiu raised her head and thought about it.
No matter how much storage there is in Fengxian Pavilion, can things like diapers be in stock?
This thing... well, I won't be able to use it for a while.
But Qiuqiu immediately thought about it: "Where are all the things Elder Li sent earlier?"
Only then did Shi'er remember, rummaged through the shelves and took out several palm-sized Qiankun bags.
Qiuqiu silently gave Elder Li and the others a thumbs up.
The Qiankun bag is really a good thing.
Elder Li and the others were thoughtful and sent many and complete things. Qiuqiu actually found a diaper. The cloth was dry, warm, and extremely soft.
New cloth is not as comfortable and soft as this. These cloths have been washed and beaten repeatedly. After being exposed to the sun, they feel like a layer of warm mist, with the smell of sunshine and grass.
Elder Li and the others' thoughts were like this, soft and light attached to this thin piece of cloth.
She dried the baby carefully and put on a new, dry and soft diaper. Shier paid attention to her every move with a serious and rigorous attitude throughout the process. Qiuqiu asked him with a smile: "Do you want to try it?"
Shi'er, who had never been troubled by anything before, hesitated for the first time: "Next time, I've just wrapped it up, so he won't catch a cold if I don't bother with it anymore."
Qiuqiu then went through the other things in the bag, and found that the Little Universe Bag contained everything. Small clothes, small shoes, small quilts, small pillows, toys, food, and medicines were all available. It was enough to open a large baby supplies store.
It's the supermarket. Especially the diapers, neatly stacked together like a mountain.
Qiuqiu's mouth was half open - even if her son had to wear diapers for thirty years, the stock would not be used up.
Shi'er also saw it, and the two looked at each other.
"These things can't be prepared in just a few days."
Shi'er affirmed Qiuqiu's words: "They must have been preparing for a long time."
Did they know that Qiuqiu would have a child?
not necessarily.
Those exquisite little clothes that look like works of art and the most ingenious toys...
Qiuqiu reached out and took out a fat yellow cat stuffed animal from the pile of neatly arranged toys. I don’t know whose needlework it was. It was made plump and cute, a bit like Garfield.
Although they have taken the path of cutting off worldly ties and focusing on cultivating immortality, Elder Li and the others probably still retain a trace of reluctance and attachment to the human world deep in their hearts.
This thread of ties is clearly revealed in these little things.
Qiuqiu held one of the cat's paws. She thought that her son might like the fat cat very much when he grows up. Then she can tell him stories. Once upon a time, there was a fat cat named Garfield...
