He’s a Little Stinky
Bai Wutong had helped her relatives take care of their children before and had some experience.
As soon as she took the baby, she frowned.
His clothes were all wet. If he didn’t change out of them quickly, he’d be in trouble if the child got sick.
Bai Wutong looked at Lin Yue reproachfully. She pulled her cloak over and unwrapped his clothes. She realized that not only had the child peed, but he had also p.o.o.ped and was covered in a mess.
No wonder he was crying so hard.
Lin Yue glanced at the golden p.o.o.p and couldn’t bear to look at it. He looked like he had handed it all to her.
Bai Wutong looked at him speechlessly and asked Chu Tianbao to bring the cloak.
Chu Tianbao eagerly handed over his cloak. As soon as he approached, he pinched his nose and said in a m.u.f.fled voice, “How smelly. He’s just a little stinky.”
Lin Yue glanced over and sniffed again, unable to argue.
There were no diapers here. Bai Wutong had no choice but to wipe the child’s b.u.t.t with a handkerchief first. Then she pulled off her cloak and made a simple diaper pad.
Even after it was taken care of, the child was still crying. His small face was flushed.
It was heartbreaking.
Bai Wutong frowned and asked, “How old is he?”
Lin Yue thought for a moment and said, “Almost six months.”
The six-month-old child was mainly drinking milk. He could only eat a little supplementary food, and it had to be cooked very soft before he could eat it.
Bai Wutong said to Lin Yue, “The porridge isn’t soft enough. He’s too young to digest it. Add some water to the porridge and cook it. I’ll feed him some water first.”
The child cried until Lin Yue had a headache. He would do whatever Bai Wutong instructed him to do.
There was milk in Bai Wutong’s s.p.a.ce, but children under the age of one would be allergic to it. Fortunately, she had obtained a box of baby milk at the supply station previously. She drank it once and found it disgusting, so she kept it.
‘Perfect. Now I can feed the baby.’
She poured the baby milk into a water pouch in the RV s.p.a.ce and took it out of her bag to feed the baby.
The child’s mouth went to the water pouch, and the crying stopped. He began to suck furiously, obviously starving.
He stopped crying, and his flushed face turned white and tender.
His big black eyes looked at Bai Wutong in confusion, making one’s heart melt.
With the child in her arms obediently, Lin Yue finally felt at ease.
Chu Tianbao came over and pouted. “Wife, I’m hungry too.”
Lin Yue had felt that something was wrong with him just now. He glanced at Chu Tianbao and asked meaningfully, “Your husband…?”
Bai Wutong knew what he wanted to ask. “Well, he’s only got a head injury. His thoughts are a little messed up. He’ll recover slowly.”
Lin Yue was not good at comforting people. He racked his brains before saying, “He will.”
Chu Tianbao tugged at her sleeve. Bai Wutong was feeding the child and couldn’t reach out to dig out the candy for him, so she said, “There’s still some food in the bag. Eat first.”
“Oh,” Chu Tianbao said. He went to the bag and pulled out two sweet potatoes, a potato and an egg.
Lin Yue glanced at the pot in front of him and then at the food in Chu Tianbao’s arms. He took out a silver note worth a hundred taels and demanded domineeringly, “I want a sweet potato, a potato, and an egg.”
Chu Tianbao’s expression suddenly changed.
Lin Yue sensed a strong killing intent and reached for his sword.
In an instant, he was pressed under Chu Tianbao and punched hard on both sides of his face.
Chu Tianbao grabbed his neck with a dark expression. “The eggs belong to my wife!”
The suffocating feeling was like a life-threatening curse. The veins on Lin Yue’s forehead bulged. No matter how he resisted, it was useless against Chu Tianbao.
Only then did he feel a strong sense of regret. How could a couple who could walk here with so much food be ordinary?
Just as he thought that he would definitely die and could not send his young master safely to Beiyun City,Bai Wutong’s heavenly voice sounded, “Tianbao, let go quickly.”
Chu Tianbao’s hostility faded in an instant. He let go and looked obedient again, as if he hadn’t just wanted to kill someone.
Lin Yue held his neck and coughed violently.
Chu Tianbao placed the egg in front of Bai Wutong and said ingratiatingly, “Wife, you should eat.”
Bai Wutong ignored him and said to Lin Yue in embarra.s.sment, “He didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t mind him.”
She then looked at Chu Tianbao and said solemnly, “Tianbao, take the banknotes over and apologize to this young master with sweet potatoes, potatoes, and eggs.”
On the way to escape, even if they had money, they might not be able to buy food. On the surface, this was all the food they had in their bags, but Lin Yue only wanted to leave a sweet potato for her and Chu Tianbao.With Chu Tianbao beating him up, Bai Wutong felt that it was quite good. At least it could make him learn.
Did she dare to say it any more nicely? She even wanted to collect his silver as an apology! There was no sincerity at all.
However, the child was still in the hands of Bai Wutong, and Chu Tianbao could kill him in one move.
Lin Yue could only suffer in silence and s.n.a.t.c.h the egg that Chu Tianbao handed over reluctantly.
Chu Tianbao saw that he had swallowed the egg in one bite and his eyes were red. He glared at Lin Yue fiercely and walked to Bai Wutong aggrievedly. “Wife, the egg you can eat is gone.”
Lin Yue almost choked.
There were plenty of eggs in Bai Wutong’s RV s.p.a.ce. It was not convenient to take them out now. She comforted him. “I don’t eat eggs. There’s still rice in the bag. We’ll have porridge and pickles.”
Chu Tianbao nodded obediently and walked back to Lin Yue.
He stood against the light, looking down. His expressionless black face was majestic.
He opened his mouth, but it was still in a childish tone. “Give me back the pot!”
Lin Yue retracted his hand that was about to draw his sword and poured out the porridge in the pot. He threw the pot in front of Chu Tianbao and said angrily, “Here.”
Bai Wutong glanced at them. Why did she feel that silliness could be contagious?
The baby was full and fast asleep.
Bai Wutong returned the child to Lin Yue. Chu Tianbao eagerly handed the porridge to her. “Wife, here.”
The hot porridge was accompanied by a plate full of side dishes. It looked especially warm in the dilapidated house that was leaking air everywhere.
Bai Wutong took out a piece of candy from her pocket and praised, “Well done.”
Chu Tianbao took the candy and stuffed it into his mouth. “It’s so sweet,” he said with a smile.
Bai Wutong smiled. After a bowl of hot porridge, the moisture feeling dissipated.
It was easy for a child who was only a few months old to wake up. In the middle of the night, the child suddenly woke up. Lin Yue tried to coax him, but the more he cried, the worse he became. It was impossible for Bai Wutong to sleep, so he fed the child a little more “water” and put him to sleep.
No sooner had they closed their eyes than the child began to wail again.
Chu Tianbao said unhappily, “You’re so noisy!”
Lin Yue hugged the child and couldn’t argue.
Bai Wutong took the child from the helpless Lin Yue and changed his diaper.
After going back and forth three times throughout the night, the sky was beginning to brighten.
Lin Yue held the child while Chu Tianbao slept with the exhausted Bai Wutong.
At this moment, the sound of hooves came from the door again. There were many people.
Lin Yue gripped his sword tightly. Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao opened their eyes at the same time.
Then a secret code sounded outside the door.
Lin Yue immediately looked happy and said to the person outside the door, “Come in.”
