Chapter 168 Journey
Chapter 168 Journey
Qin Ni and Qin Wuji were so happy that they kept playing around with their youngest brother or sister.
"Brother, my younger brother and sister are so cute now! They are prettier than when they were just born."
Qin Wuji touched their little faces, which were smooth and soft, and he smelled them, and they smelled fragrant.
"Yes, you were the same before. You were red when you were born, but you became prettier as you grew older!"
Qin Wuji didn't quite believe what he said.
"Brother, you are lying. Jiaojiao has always been pretty. She was never that ugly. Haha... Sister, this is my finger. You can't eat it."
When Qin Wuzhi was not paying attention, his sister took his hand into her mouth and started sucking it. As soon as he took his hand away, his sister started crying immediately.
"Wow wow wow..."
The voice was so loud and clear that it startled them all!
As soon as the sister started crying, the brother started crying too.
Gongshu Yuan was moving things and just as he put them down, he heard the child crying. Both the brother and sister were immediately panicked.
"Ni'er, Jiaojiao, it's okay, get up. They may be hungry!"
Gongshu Yuan swiftly picked up the bottle, which was still warm and had just been taken from Qin Xingfu.
Qin Wuji thought it was fun and she also wanted to feed her sister.
"Dad Yuan, can I feed my sister?"
Gongshu Yuan held a bottle in each of their hands, so he handed the bottle to them.
“You guys come and try it!”
The happy little sister who was drinking milk suddenly died. Her little mouth pouted and she was about to cry. Qin Wuji quickly put the bottle in her mouth.
"Sister, I'm feeding you, eat slowly!"
Seeing how happily she was eating, Qin Wuji also wanted to drink milk. His saliva was secreted like crazy in his mouth, and he even drooled.
Gongshu Yuan cooked the goat milk and let it cool down. Seeing that his son and daughter were full, he thought it was time to change their diapers.
"Ni'er, Jiaojiao, here is goat milk. You can have some. I added sugar to it."
There was no shortage of fresh goat milk at home. Seeing Qin Wuji so greedy, he couldn't help laughing. Qin Wuji put down the bottle, thanked Gongshu Yuan, and started drinking the milk.
Qin Wuji was required to drink it every day before, but later she didn't want to drink it anymore and threw it away. When Qin Xingfu saw this, he said he would give it to her when she said she wanted to drink it.
Drinking the sweet goat's milk, Qin Wuji felt that he had been a little ungrateful before.
Qin Ni drank it every day. After drinking, he helped Gongshu Yuan change the children's diapers. He didn't have much memory of his mother giving birth to Qin Shan and Qin Chuan when they were older, but he remembered it clearly when his mother gave birth to Qin Wuji and Qin Mingqi.
"Dad Yuan, please coax your brother and sister to sleep. We are going out to play!"
He remembered that the child just slept, drank milk, and pooped, which was not very fun.
"it is good!"
Gongshu Yuan held his sister in his arms, burped her, and coaxed her to sleep! Looking at his son, he didn't even need to be coaxed. He just changed his diaper and fell asleep as soon as he felt comfortable.
Queen Ying came in, took a look, and left with a smile. After Gongshu Yuan coaxed the child out, he whispered.
"It seems that they are relatively easy to take care of. The twins Qinshan and Qinshan are quiet and well-behaved now, but in the first six months after they were born, Xuhe was almost tortured to death. They didn't cry if one cried, but Shanshan cried first and then Chuanchuan. Once, when I wanted to help in the middle of the night, I saw Xuhe wiping tears."
When Yinghou thought back to that time, he found it very funny. Xuhe, who was usually the coldest, broke down because of taking care of the child. Later, he had to lend a hand. Only when the child was easier to take care of did he let Xuhe take care of the child by himself.
Gongshu Yuan couldn't imagine that a grown man could be tortured to tears by a child. Add to that the way Li Xuhe was usually, the scene was too beautiful to imagine, and he could not help but shrug and shake his head.
"Then I'll have to trouble you tomorrow. The child needs milk every hour. If adults have it, try to feed her. If not, boil goat's milk with a small piece of shredded ginger and let it cool. They are both very well behaved, but the younger sister is a little squeamish and needs to be held and coaxed..."
If the brother in the cradle could speak, he would definitely have cursed. Every time they cried, his father would only hug his sister. He was either held by Aunt Shan or Uncle Shan. He couldn't tell who was who and was not as clingy as his sister.
In fact, Queen Ying is better at taking care of children than he is. After all, he has helped take care of all these children to some extent. But he did not interrupt him and listened to him patiently.
Gongshu Yuan kept nagging for a long time before he stopped in time. He thought that he had taken care of several children before, so how could he not know how to do it?
"Um... am I being too wordy?"
"No, you are quite careful and have thought of every aspect."
Compared with Queen Ying's tolerance, Gongshu Yuan felt that he was really despicable, but that was all in the past, and he would not plot against them in the future.
"Thank you!"
"We're a family, so why be polite? Here are the clothes for the children tomorrow! They're very soft, nice!"
"Yes, it's made of cotton silk. It's breathable and warm. I put a lot of it in the warehouse and asked someone to make it for the children."
"This can be arranged for the children. I'll talk to Fu Yuan about it later."
Queen Ying was not polite either. They could just ask Fu Yuan for whatever they wanted. They also earned money from the family and were not really living off him. He liked this kind of family atmosphere very much. Compared to his own relatively depressing original family, he liked his current home very much.
"it is good!"
It was already dark on the ocean, and Jianglu had to let his men go ashore to rest. Before, they had built post stations along the coast like they did on land. Each post station had a population of 5 to 10, allowing them to build bases and conquer territory at the same time.
In this way, they scattered people along the way and provided supplies and equipment. When they arrived at the rebel base, there were only more than 200,000 people left.
The soldiers on the shore saw the Qin flag. They had received the news before and were now preparing to welcome it.
"General!"
The person in charge of the post station is Yuan Chuo, who is a major general and is three years old. Their station has seized a large piece of land.
"Wow! Not bad, not bad, this place looks nice now. It was a wasteland before. I'll report it to you when I get back!"
Yuan Chuo could tell that they were not going to be taken back. Although this place was very nice, they still wanted to go home very much.
"General, it's winter now, the base only needs to do daily patrols and guards, many people can still go back."
Yuan Chuo looked at him with resentment, as if blaming him for going home without taking them. He also wanted to go home. When he went out to fight, his wife wrote to him saying that she was pregnant. He had not been home for so long, and he wanted to see his child.
Jiang Lu got goose bumps all over his body.
"Stop being disgusting! As long as you can guarantee that everything is safe, you can go back with me."
They are all the same people. He knows that many people want to go home, but the territory is so large now, how can they do that without anyone guarding it?
Yuan Chuo immediately smiled happily and served the horseman wholeheartedly.
"Thank you, General! In fact, this place is relatively easy to attack. We usually don't take the initiative to attack. Those savages hid themselves after being beaten a few times. We were busy building the post station and didn't pay any attention to them. Now this place is ours..."
They called these local people who had no written language and could not communicate savages. These savages harassed them at first, but they became obedient after being pinned down and beaten a few times. Now they don't harass them anymore.
"Yes, Not Bad!"
A quick look at Jianglu shows that it is in good shape and the houses are well built.
"General, please come this way. Thank you for your hard work! The food is ready!"
