Chapter 709: The Spring of the Dink Elderly "Are there guests?" Ge Chunfang wondered, but she didn't stop, arriving at her doorstep. The next moment, she said, "Old Xiao, come quickly!" "There's a child here! Who dumped a child on our doorstep?" Xiao Qifu was unconvinced. "Don't be ridiculous! How could anyone dump a child in this time and space?" "Did you think we were on Earth?" There was a special nursery here. Any young person who didn't want to raise a child could send them there, free of charge; the government would cover the entire cost. "Oh my..." Ge Chunfang held a four or five-month-old baby and handed it to Xiao Qifu. Xiao Qifu was stunned by the child. "This..." Inside the two-story building, the couple placed the child on the table. After examining him, they were both stunned. It was a boy, about three or four months old, wearing a pure cotton bodysuit with a pattern of small gold beads sewn on the back and diapers clearly made on Earth. The little creature, plump and rosy-skinned, stared at them curiously with its large, distinct black and white eyes. A toothless grin ripped its lips, "Ah..." It looked like it was well-fed. It had been over three years since their souls had traveled through time and space to the middle-aged scientist couple who had been in a car accident. They had adapted to this time and space, inheriting their original memories and knowledge, and were able to continue their research. Here, they were respected and well-fed. Since the accident, the state had even assigned them security personnel, who accompanied them wherever they went. Aside from not having children of their own, everything seemed perfect. They had thought they would spend the rest of their lives like this, but who knew a child would fall from the sky? Xiao Qifu stared at it for a long moment, his mind racing. "Do you think the country gave us this child because we're so lonely?" Ge Chunfang rolled her eyes. "What the hell are you dreaming of?" "There are so many people lonelier than us, who've made greater contributions. Whose family have you seen given a child?" "This outfit doesn't look like it belongs in this time and space. Could it be from Earth?" Xiao Qifu slapped his thigh. "It's possible!" "Look at these gold beads, these diapers... don't they look familiar?" "Only on Earth!" "People here don't use these..." The craftsmanship here is more advanced, and the diapers aren't made of this material... Ge Chunfang's eyes lit up. "Old Xiao, do you think the country would allow us to keep the child?" Xiao Qifu: "You want to keep it?" "Yes!" Ge Chunfang's answer was firm. Her soul was that of an ordinary housewife, with a deep love for children and family. Not having children in this time and space was a regret for her, but now a child had fallen from the sky, her eyes welled up. "I'll apply to the country." Xiao Qifu immediately stood up and left. For scientists of their stature, raising a child without the government's knowledge was simply impossible. They needed a clear path. Soon, Xiao Qifu received notice: the state had approved it. This space-time was technologically advanced, and time travel was well-received. Wherever a wormhole existed, time travel was possible. As long as they could verify that the traveler posed no threat to the space-time, and gather some information useful for its development, they'd be fine. Xiao Qifu and Ge Chunfang were delighted to welcome a four-month-old baby! Looking at the chubby child, Ge Chunfang suddenly thought of Xiao Yingchun. "Old Xiao, if Yingchun got married and had a child, wouldn't the child be this old?" Xiao Qifu wished the same thing. He sighed, "Just raise him as your own grandson..." Xiao Qifu was delighted, while Xiao Yingchun was frantic with anxiety. They searched and waited, but the child was nowhere to be found. As darkness fell, Xiao Si began to cry, searching for his mother. Xiao Yingchun's eyes lit up, and she pulled Fu Chenan and asked, "It's dark now. Will the child come back by himself if he looks for his mother?" Before Fu Chenan could answer, the wet nurse next to him knelt down and replied, "Crown Princess, the Third Prince sleeps very well and doesn't often look for his mother." Xiao Yingchun frowned and retorted, "You're talking nonsense! Every night, when he sees me, he cries and asks me to hold him." "Why doesn't he look for his mother?" The wet nurse trembled with fear, but didn't dare to lie, "If you were next to him when he was sleepy, he would cry and look for his mother." "But you usually hold the little princess to feed and coax her to sleep, so you don't have time to hold the Third Prince." "He's used to it recently. When he sees you, he just cries a few times. We hold him and pat him from your side, and he falls asleep by himself." "If you weren't around, he wouldn't look for you." Xiao Yingchun was speechless, feeling cold from head to toe. She turned her head to look at the still crying Little Fourth, full of regret. For the past few months, her mind had been focused more on the frail Xiao Si, and she felt constantly sorry for him, rarely caring for Xiao San. Could it be that Xiao San had been gradually losing touch with her without her knowing? She looked helplessly at Fu Chen'an: "Chen'an, Xiao San..." Could he never come back? Fu Chen'an patted her shoulder soothingly: "Don't be afraid. Have you forgotten? When you hold Xiao Si, I often hold Xiao San, too." "He likes me very much." "Maybe he'll remember me and come back?" Xiao Yingchun glanced at Fu Chen'an gratefully: "Thank you for comforting me." But she wasn't comforted. That night, dinner was a chaotic affair throughout the palace, and no one ate well. Xiao Si had no idea her brother was missing; she only knew that her mother hadn't held her or fed her in time. The little girl cried heartbreakingly: "Mom, I don't love you anymore!" Alas... The wet nurse tried her best to comfort the little princess, but she was so used to her mother's scent that she didn't want anyone else. Xiao Yingchun had no choice but to hold Xiao Si in her arms again. The familiar formula, the familiar smell, the familiar taste, instantly satiated Xiao Si, clutching his own bowl as he ate with a sweaty, delighted heart. Xiao Yingchun, however, looked at the little one in her arms, filled with guilt. Because Xiao San was easier to feed, she rarely gave her the third child priority. At first, when Xiao Si was full and couldn't finish her meal, she would give the rest to Xiao San. Xiao San wasn't picky either; he'd eat his mother's food. If he wasn't full, he'd pass it to the wet nurse, who would take his next bite. After a good burp, he'd fall asleep... Later, Xiao Si's stomach improved, and Xiao Yingchun's milk was only enough for one baby, so she focused solely on Xiao Si. From two months on, Xiao San was completely left to the wet nurse. Now, the child must be disappointed in her mother, not even looking for her after dark, and never coming back... Xiao Yingchun wept uncontrollably. The Tianwu capital was in turmoil, and the palace was in a state of panic. The Queen knew that Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan's child had extraordinary abilities, but she never imagined that a four-month-old child would have such abilities? Such a young child has no ability to protect himself, and this ability is no different from committing suicide. Is the child still alive? Where did he go? Can he come back? Xiao Qifu and Ge Chunfang looked at the little cutie in the cradle who fell asleep as soon as he was full, and their faces were full of smiles. "Old Xiao, look, this child is so well-behaved?" "He sleeps when he is full, hums when he poops, and smiles when he is changed..." "He is much easier to take care of than Yingying when she was young..."
