Chapter 807: Chapter 807 Xiao Xiao and Her Brother, Part 2 (Four Updates)
The little bird was indeed injured, under its belly, it seemed to have been stabbed by something, with feathers and dried bloodstains clumped together. It looked quite serious.
Zhu Qianying had wanted to send baby boy and little boy away because this little bird reminded her of what baby boy looked like when she first found him under the pool.
But whether it was baby boy or little boy, they both persisted in staying by her side.
Little boy was curious about everything, usually babbling nonstop, though the adults didn’t completely understand her.
But at this moment, she was staring solemnly at the little bird lying on the dry towel with a very serious little face.
Baby boy’s expression was also very grave, and if Zhu Qianying wasn’t mistaken, he too probably remembered his own situation at that time.
Zhu Qianying took a cotton swab, dipped it in some disinfectant, and gently wiped the little bird’s belly wound. As she was cleaning, she heard baby boy’s very low voice.
"Mommy, was I almost scared to death by you guys back then?"
Perhaps Zhu Qianying had unintentionally shown a sorrowful look just now, and the astute baby boy naturally associated the little bird’s situation with his own.
Zhu Qianying’s eyes reddened, and she almost couldn’t hold back her tears.
She tilted her head back, blinked hard, then bent down next to baby boy’s face and kissed him gently.
"Baby, Daddy and Mommy have always believed in you, believed that you would take good care of yourself."
She didn’t mention how sad she was at the time or whether she was scared out of her wits; she only shared the belief she firmly held at that time with him.
Baby boy reached out his hand and placed it on her face, a small hand that felt warm, its warmth like the temperature of his Daddy’s big hand.
"Yeah, the little bird will get better too, just like me..."
Zhu Qianying raised her hand and stealthily wiped the corner of her eye.
She was glad that baby boy had truly overcome that incident completely.
To prevent herself from losing composure in front of her son, Zhu Qianying redirected her attention back to the little bird’s belly.
"Baby, help Mommy find some anti-inflammatory ointment."
Baby boy brought the medicine box to the floor and searched through it. Little boy, not sure if she understood, squatted by her brother’s side, watching him search in a well-behaved manner, the usual mischief not apparent in her at the time.
After searching for a while with pursed lips, baby boy finally found a small tube of ointment and stood up to hand it to Zhu Qianying.
"Mommy, is this the one?"
Zhu Qianying, who was carefully trimming the hair on the little bird’s belly, glanced at the ointment in his hand and nodded, "Yes, that’s right, it’s this one."
Baby boy placed the ointment on the table, turned to look for gauze or a hemostatic sticker, but as he turned, he saw little boy holding up her little hand, "Hoo hoo... fly..."
In the little boy’s hand, there was a piece of a hemostatic sticker.
Baby boy squatted down, hugged his sister, "Little sister is so smart..."
Little boy seldom fell ill, but bumping into things one day and tripping the next was quite common.
When her little hands or feet bled, baby boy or another family member would disinfect the wound, apply some ointment, and then put on a hemostatic sticker for her.
Usually, as baby boy applied it, he would comfort her, "Brother will blow on it, and the pain will fly away!"
Clearly, in her little mind, she associated the injured little bird with her own experiences of getting hurt. No wonder she had been pursing her lips without speaking much since she saw the little bird’s belly wound, her little face tight with concern and tension.
Most likely, she felt that the little bird must be in a lot of pain, just like when she hurt herself!
Zhu Qianying heard her daughter’s voice, glanced over, and seeing the hemostatic sticker in her hand, a wave of warmth surged in her heart.
It seemed she had a pair of very kind children.
Once, she had seen her daughter coddled and spoiled by the Yan Family, and she couldn’t help but worry.
She worried that her daughter might be spoiled into a stubborn and unreasonable rich Miss.
But now, she was convinced that her precious daughter, though coddled and spoiled, would never become like those girls of the Zhu Family or like Yi Wei, a haughty Miss.
After baby boy and little boy found the ointment and hemostatic sticker and placed them on the coffee table, Zhu Qianying thanked the two little babies.
With nothing else to do, the two little fellows did not rush away but knelt on the carpet and stood, both leaning on the coffee table, their heads resting on their hands, staring unwaveringly at the little bird’s wound.
It was not until Zhu Qianying had applied the ointment and affixed the hemostatic sticker on the wound that she heard both little ones let out a long sigh of relief in unison.
"baby boy, go ask Grandma if she has a breathable little box or a little cage of some sort," she said.
Upon receiving the command, baby boy got up to find Grandma.
Although brother hadn’t called her, the little girl also followed behind him, twisting her little bottom as she ran over.
Zhu Qianying looked at her children’s retreating backs and laughed with great relief.
The little bird was settled into a transparent small fish tank, which was placed on the coffee table. After Zhu Qianying finished these preparations, she let Yan Shao know to watch the children, and she herself then opened the computer to finish the morning’s unfinished tasks.
Yan Shao sat on the sofa dealing with matters while baby boy and little boy stayed put, lying on the coffee table watching the little bird.
As they watched, baby boy suddenly stood up, and as a little shadow, little boy also got up and followed. After a while, Yan Shao saw baby boy and little boy each holding a cup used for drinking Kung Fu tea coming out of the kitchen.
Approaching, Yan Shao chuckled.
It turned out that the cup in baby boy’s hand was filled with water, and the cup in little boy’s hand was filled with bread crumbs.
"Baby, do you know that these two cups are Grandpa and Grandma’s treasured babies?"
These two cups were jade cups bought by Grandpa at an auction at a hefty price, but that was not the main point. The main point was that this pair of cups was an anniversary gift from Grandpa to Grandma.
The implication was a lifetime of companionship.
baby boy was startled for a moment, "Ah? Treasured babies?"
Grandpa and Grandma always said he and his sister were their treasured babies, so how did it become these two cups now?
However, although baby boy had his doubts, he still took his sister by the hand.
Yan Shao, fearing that the two little ones would break the cups, hurriedly closed the computer and stood up to take the cups away.
"Yes, these two cups are a gift from Grandpa to Grandma, and you mustn’t touch them. Come, hand them to Daddy and he’ll get two ordinary ones for you," he said.
The two little ones looked at their father half-believingly, half-doubtfully, but Yan Shao was usually very good to them; even with faces full of doubt, the two brats obediently let go and handed the cups back to Yan Shao.
Yan Shao went back to the kitchen, got two ordinary cups, poured the water and bread crumbs into them, and then returned to the living room.
"Daddy, are those two cups really Grandpa and Grandma’s treasured babies?"
This time, baby boy seemed to feel a sense of crisis.
Yan Shao pinched his cheek, "Rest assured, compared to you two, those two cups are worth nothing at all!"
