Chapter 814: Start of the Great War (8)

Ling Tianya carried Tiny Rice Ball and walked around the nursery. She walked into the toy room, which was similar to the room in which the baby slept. This room was filled with all kinds of toys, enough to last Tiny Rice Ball until p.u.b.erty.

The baby’s attention was captured by a robot. Ling Tianya walked over to the toy. “Look, this is a present from your G.o.dfather.”

Gu Zhiqian had been true to his word. Since he hadn’t able to attend the baby’s one-month-old birthday, he sent someone with a truck full of infant toys on the second day, including a robot that was a meter tall.

Tiny Rice Ball grabbed the robot’s hand and looked at it.

Ling Tinaya didn’t know what children thought at this period of time. Aunty w.a.n.g said that at this age, children were progressively becoming aware of the outside world. The things he did weren’t logical and were the child’s natural instincts.

“You can’t play with this right now. You can play with it when you’re a little older.” She didn’t know whether or not Tiny Rice Ball understood what she was saying, but Ling Tianya still wanted to continue talking to him. “Therefore, my precious child, hurry up and grow up. Grow tall and handsome, even more handsome than your father!”

Just then, w.a.n.g Yazhi walked over and smiled with her lips pursed. “Yaya, then we can compare whether your or my son is more handsome.”

Madame Ruan rolled her eyes at w.a.n.g Yazhi. “Of course my great-grandson will be the most handsome!”

“Why?”

“Because the Ling girl is better looking than you!” Madame Ruan stated. “Children are a combination of their parent’s genes. Your son is handsome because my son is handsome, and you don’t look half bad.”

w.a.n.g Yazhi stopped smiling. “Mom, you just know how to refute me.”

Originally the four generations in the baby’s room were having a good time chatting and laughing. The atmosphere was good.

However, just then, Tiny Rice Ball randomly started crying. He wasn’t a baby that cried often. However, every time he cried, he was hard to calm down.

Tiny Rice Ball’s cry interrupted the teasing and chit chat between the adults. Hearing the child crying, Aunty w.a.n.g immediately walked into the room.

“He was just fed, so the young master probably isn’t hungry. Young Miss, why don’t you look to see if the young master has peed or p.o.o.ped.”

With one hand, Ling Tianya tried to calm the baby down, while her other hand checked the child’s small diaper. The diaper was dry.

Tiny Rice Ball did not use a disposable diaper. Aunty w.a.n.g was an experienced midwife and believed that when a child was only a few months old, their bones were soft and their skin delicate. Therefore, they shouldn’t use the disposable diaper in order to prevent their legs from curving and them developing eczema.

Therefore, Tiny Rice Ball used an absorbent ventilated cotton cloth instead of a disposable diaper.

“There’s no pee and no p.o.o.p,” Ling Tianya said to Aunty w.a.n.g,

“Then the young master is probably throwing a tantrum. He should be fine if we just carry him and coax him.” Aunty w.a.n.g reached out her hand. “Young Miss, why don’t you hand the young master over to me. I’ll comfort him.”

“It’s fine. I’ll comfort him.”

Ling Tianya paced around the room with the baby, softly speaking to him.

From experience, although the Tiny Rice Ball was hard to comfort, he could still be coaxed. Either that, or he would get tired from crying and fall asleep.

However, it was strange this time. For whatever reason, Tiny Rice Ball began crying even harder.

Ling Tianya began to panic. Madame Ruan and w.a.n.g Yazhi also became anxious.

“The child is crying so much. Is he sick?”

Eventually, Aunty w.a.n.g took the baby from Ling Tianya’s arms. “The young master doesn’t have a fever. He was fine before, and he doesn’t look like he’s sick.”

She was in charge of taking care of the child. If the child got sick under her care, then she would take the blame.

Seeing that Tiny Rice Ball wouldn’t stop crying, Aunty w.a.n.g’s heart was in her mouth.
