Naturally Precious

Bao'er is really easy to raise, she giggles every day after feeding, and babbles for a long time when she wants to pee.Although I still have to get up to look after them at night, compared to other children, it is really easy to raise.

The men under him also wanted to take care of the young master, after all the young master himself is just a child.But considering Bao'er's special body, the young master just smiled and declined their kindness.Maybe it was because she knew who was taking care of her every day, even though she was only a tiny baby, Bao'er also recognized him.Every day when he woke up and opened his eyes, when he saw Shen Xuan, he stretched out his arms happily to hug her.

He is just a little meat dumpling. Although he has to eat several meals of milk every day, he is only a little bit heavier. The young master can hold him with one arm.At this time, he would squint his eyes and smile happily, as if he had some great fun.

Babies always look different every day. Baoer can eat and sleep, and is soon raised to be white and tender, without the slightest trace of haggardness when he was abandoned in the mountains.Despite the scorching summer, there were still a lot of mosquitoes, but the young master watched carefully, so that he didn't get bitten again.The red envelope on his face before also slowly faded away, revealing his cute and clean face.

Bea really looks good.

At this time, other children just have their eyes, nose and mouth glued to their faces, and they can't see anything at all, but Bao'er has a good appearance, not only has a bridge of nose, but also a pair of eyes with long eyelashes, drooping. I wish I could cover my lower eyelids when I opened my eyes.The small mouth is pink and tender, even the babbling that spits out is endearing.

The flesh on his cheeks was piled up on both sides, and he liked to lie in the young master's arms and spit bubbles when he was full.Spit one by one, non-stop.If he farted, he would stare straight at the young master with his dark eyes, making it impossible for anyone to say a word of reproach.

Shen Xuan took him by his side every day.

After finishing their business, the commercial firm bought some items that were not available at the border, and then went back.Although the journey was hard, this trip was very rewarding. Although it was a bit tiring, the men below were all satisfied.For the commercial bank, it is a blessing to be able to go to the commercial bank in a safe and sound way, and then looking at the little baby who came out of nowhere, I didn't mind at the beginning, but everyone wanted to tease them.

It's a pity that the young master doesn't give it.

In this way, Bao'er was cherished by Shen Xuan, and they returned to Shen's house together.

The Shen family is on the edge of the desert. In the eyes of the imperial court, it is only a place the size of a grain of rice, but it is an important hub for transportation to the Western Regions and the Central Plains.There are many businessmen coming and going, and the town is very lively.Although it is not comparable to the capital city, it is definitely not inferior to Suzhou and Hangzhou.

The Shen family is one of the few big merchants in the city.

On the day the young master returned to the mansion, all the servants of the mansion greeted him at the door, all of them looked nervous, as if wishing they could fly out of the city to meet him.The white silk in the mansion has not been removed, and incense is still lit in the front hall to commemorate the old lady who died young.

It's no wonder that the people in the mansion are so tense, after all, the master didn't exist when he went out to business, and there was no trace of his bones.

The carriage was gurgling, and the load on it was obviously much less than when it went.The men returned to the familiar place with joy on their faces.The man running errands in the mansion saw people coming from afar, and ran all the way back to the mansion to announce the good news.At this moment, everyone's expressions relaxed, and they put their hands together, thank God.

The carriage finally stopped at the gate of the mansion.

Although everyone was hungry, the men under him never ran around before the young master came down. They all lined up neatly at the side, and together with the servants in the mansion, they shouted, "Welcome the young master back!" House".A white and slender hand was slowly stretched out from the curtain that had not been opened all the way, Shen Xuan pursed her lips and smiled, carefully hugged Bao'er in her arms, and then pushed the carriage door open.

A servant has already placed a couch for the feet beside the carriage.

The clean brocade shoes stepped on the ottoman, but she didn't rush forward, but adjusted the position of the swaddling clothes so as not to stagger and fall to the ground.Bao'er, who was in the swaddling baby, slept all the way, maybe she noticed some changes, and slowly opened her eyes.He was really curious about the things around him, but it was a pity that he was so small that he couldn't even lift his neck, so he could only lie in his swaddling clothes, babbling non-stop.

Seeing the child in the arms of the young master, all the servants in the house were taken aback for a moment.

The eldest maid, Lu Fu, hurried up to meet her, wanting to take the tiny child from the young master, but Shen Xuan shook her head and didn't give it to her.He thanked everyone with a smile, and ordered the servant girl to serve the meals that had been prepared long ago, so as to reward all the men who followed him.

The yard suddenly became lively.

The big round table is full of wine and meat, and the freshly stuffed rice is carried into it bucket by bucket.The men tore off the clothes that were in the way of their upper bodies, drank alcohol and ate meat, so that they were happy.

The young master didn't make noise with them, but carried Bao'er to the mourning hall in the backyard.

In the mourning hall stood the memorial tablets of the ancestors of the Shen family, under the faint candlelight, it was really a bit gloomy.But Shen Xuan didn't show any timid and fearful expression, instead, he looked at the two tablets in front and smiled slightly.

Afterwards, the eyes drooped down and fell on Bao'er's clean and tender face.

Bao'er looked at him with round eyes, and opened her mouth slightly, sticking out a little pink tongue.He was still young, he could do whatever he wanted, spit out a bubble with a bang, and slid to the side with some saliva.The young master couldn't help but bend his eyebrows, took out the specially prepared handkerchief beside the baby, and gently wiped away the water stains.

Then, his gaze was raised again, and fell on the tablet of Mrs. Shen's family.

"Father, mother, my son is back."

There was a little sadness in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared, leaving only a steady and mature look that did not belong to this age.Shen Xuan took a few steps forward, slowly knelt down on the worship mat with Bao'er in his arms, and kowtowed three times very seriously.

"The filial piety period has not yet passed, but the son is not able to accompany his parents. It is really unfilial. However, after the parents left, they secretly blocked the son, which meant that the son was not a great talent and could not take on the heavy responsibility of the Shen family. The son thought for a long time, and decided It's a merchant."

"Thank you, father and mother, for your blessings, and have a safe journey."

He pursed his lips, noticed that the little thing in his arms moved, and quickly loosened his arms.Xu Shi hugged her too tightly before, Bao'er stretched her limbs uncomfortably, opened her mouth again and yawned big.

"Oh……"

The baby's delicate babbling resounded in the mourning hall, followed by a few loud bangs.He stretched, and finally felt comfortable, and curled up his little hands and feet again.This naive look fell into the eyes of the young master for a moment, and the remaining melancholy disappeared completely.

"Father, mother, the son brought Bao'er back." He stroked the baby's soft hair, and looked up at the tablet again.

"This child has a physical abnormality. Perhaps it was because of this that he was abandoned in the wilderness. If the son does not want him, I am afraid he will have no way out. If the parents are still alive, they will definitely bring him back."

"Now the Shen family only has the son's line left, and the son plans to raise Bao'er before he gets married."

"If something unexpected happens, the Shen family will have successors."

Shen Xuan lowered his eyes, and his voice gradually became low.The candlelight shone on his white and jade-like face, like a mother's caress.He knelt quietly for a while again, perhaps thinking of the passing of the old lady.

The strands of hair hung down, and a strand fell in front of Bao'er.

Bao'er slept all the way, and it was time for her to be energetic at the moment, her round eyes rolled around.Seeing that strand of jet-black hair, he suddenly became excited, and stretched out his fleshy fist as if he had won some treasure.

Then he grabbed it in his hand.

The newborn baby naturally had no strength, but the young master still noticed the movement and looked down at him.Bao'er looked back innocently, without any consciousness of doing bad things.And at this moment, his stomach growled twice, which was obviously a sign of hunger.

"Ah!" He yelled indiscriminately.

"Bao'er is hungry..." Shen Xuan pursed her lips and stood up from the worship mat.

On the way, there was only goat's milk for Bao'er to eat. Although it was enough to keep him full, it was not as good as human milk.He had also heard from his mother that those children who drank less human milk were prone to physical weakness when they grew up, and their eyes became more thoughtful.Bao'er likes to hum when she's hungry, shrugging her butt to remind the other party.The young master pinched his little face, then looked up at the altar where the ancestors of the Shen family were placed.

Bow deeply.

Afterwards, he changed his posture of holding the child, turned around and left the mourning hall.

Lu Fu was already waiting outside, and when she saw Shen Xuan coming out, she hurried up to meet her.The meals cooked alone for the young master have already been prepared, and they are waiting for people to eat them.Shen Xuan also had something to explain to her, but as soon as her lips parted, the hand holding Bao'er felt a little wet.

The wetness grew bigger and bigger, and finally covered his hands.

It was urine.

His expression paused, and even his footsteps also paused.There was a look of helplessness in his eyes, Shen Xuan looked down at the little thing in his arms, only to see that he had a stern face and looked very hard.

After a while, Bao'er relaxed comfortably, and blinked at him twice.

Lu Fu also noticed that the swaddle was wet, and she exclaimed and was about to take Bao'er, "Oh, why did you pee...I'll go and change the baby—"

"No, I'll do it." With wet hands, Shen Xuan didn't get angry, "Go and bring a piece of silk to my room, and prepare some warm water, make sure it's cooler; let the kitchen warm a bowl of goat's milk... ...Also, ask if there is anyone who has just given birth to a baby, who is in good health and not sick. I want to find a nanny for Bao'er."

The eldest young master is calm, even though he is only a child, he seldom speaks so much.When Lu Fu heard this, she hurriedly responded, and looked at the baby in swaddling clothes with some curiosity.

I don't know if it's a man or a woman.

Perhaps sensing Lu Fu's gaze, Shen Xuan thought for a moment, and then ordered: "From now on, he will be the second young master in this mansion."

"Hey!" Bao'er responded happily.

The author has something to say:

Bao'er: I yelled!I'm hungry and want to pee!

Shen Xuan: gentle touch
