NFBE Chapter 235 1 Family
Chapter 235 1 Family
On the night of the sixth day, Ziyi had just coaxed the kids to sleep and was sitting alone in front of the door when Zhutian and the others finally came back.
Not only that, they were holding three snake cubs that had been missing for a long time.
"You're back!"
Zi Yi rushed forward in delight, grabbed Zening and the others and checked them carefully, only feeling relieved after making sure that the cubs were safe and sound.
"Because we encountered an accident on the way, we were delayed for some time." Chi Yan explained, then looked upstairs and asked, "How are Jiaojiao and Mo Ran?"
Zi Yi shook his head, "Mo Ran hasn't woken up yet, Jiao Jiao..."
Zi Yi sighed deeply, "Maybe because he was worried about Mo Ran, and also worried about you and the cub, he developed a high fever the night you left."
When they heard this, they didn't care about waking up He Jiaojiao and rushed upstairs.
Looking at He Jiaojiao's pale and somewhat sunken face, everyone was heartbroken. They didn't expect that He Jiaojiao had lost so much weight in just five days.
Zening, Wei'an and Xikang came upstairs when they learned that their father had an accident and their mother was sick.
Perhaps it was the connection between mother and child that caused He Jiaojiao, who had been asleep, to slowly open her eyes. What she saw was Chi Yan's fiery red hair. She thought she was hallucinating and tried to close her eyes again.
"Mom!"
Xikang was the first one who couldn't help himself, so he rushed over and pounced on He Jiaojiao.
Hearing the voice, He Jiaojiao realized that she was not dreaming. Chi Yan and the others really brought the cubs back.
"You all...are back!" He Jiaojiao said, tears streaming down her cheeks. The gloomy day seemed to suddenly light up.
"Mom, we're back!"
The three little snakes surrounded He Jiaojiao and frantically wiped her tears.
Looking at the heartwarming scene in front of him, even the most heartless Lin Feng couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.
"Don't worry, Mom. Dad is so strong, he will be fine." Zening is the eldest brother and the most sensible of the cubs. He took He Jiaojiao's hand and comforted her, "So, Mom, you must take good care of yourself. If anything happens to you, Dad will definitely blame himself."
"Yes!" Xikang reached out and touched He Jiaojiao's cheek. "Mom has lost weight. Dad always said that Mom was too thin. If he wakes up and sees Mom become like this because of him, he will definitely be heartbroken."
In fact, Zhuxiong and Ziyi have been saying this these days, but He Jiaojiao still couldn't get over it. But now that the cubs are back, He Jiaojiao didn't want to make them worry, so she endured the discomfort and nodded.
"Mom will take good care of herself!"
Xikang looked up at Ziyi and said, "Father Ziyi, is there anything to eat? We are a little hungry." Then he looked at He Jiaojiao and said, "Mom, can you eat something with us?"
Zi Yi nodded hurriedly, "Of course, I'll bring it up right away."
"No, I'll go downstairs to eat."
Perhaps the return of the cubs really gave He Jiaojiao hope, and she looked a lot more energetic.
He Jiaojiao originally wanted to walk down slowly by herself, but was picked up by Zhutian. He Jiaojiao hadn't eaten much in the past few days and had no strength at all.
Only after seeing He Jiaojiao finish a bowl of meat porridge did Zi Yi breathe a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately you guys are back, otherwise I really don't know what to do!" After He Jiaojiao was sent upstairs to sleep, Zi Yi suddenly collapsed.
He had been holding on these past few days. He didn't even dare to show the slightest bit of sadness, for fear that if he also felt sad, it would make He Jiaojiao even sadder.
Fortunately, everyone is back now, and Ziyi is relieved.
Lying on the stone bed, He Jiaojiao regained consciousness. In the bathtub next to the open space, Mo Ran lay quietly, as if asleep.
He Jiaojiao walked over, reached out to push the wet hair on Mo Ran's forehead aside, and then sat down on the ground.
"Aran, Zening and the others have been found and are back."
"I feel like they've grown up a lot, especially Xikang, who can even coax me, their mother, to eat."
"Zening is the same. He's starting to act like a big brother."
......
He Jiaojiao chattered on and on for a long time before exiting the space.
As soon as I lay down again, I saw Chi Yan walking in with two fox cubs in his arms.
"The kids were making a lot of noise, so I just wanted to pick them up..."
Chi Yan held a cub in each hand. In just a few days, the cubs had grown a lot. He Jiaojiao was so sad that she had no milk at all. She didn't even know what Zi Yi had been feeding them these days.
"Come here quickly!"
He Jiaojiao patted the seat next to her and motioned Chi Yan to come up with the cub.
"My two little ones, your family encountered a big event right after they were born. I have neglected you. I am so sorry!"
He Jiaojiao reached out and gently stroked the two little foxes. Their fur seemed to be longer than when they were born, and they had grown a lot bigger.
The fox cub rubbed against He Jiaojiao's palm obediently.
"Oh right, I seem to have forgotten to name you two!"
He Jiaojiao suddenly remembered and looked at the two people in front of her with some annoyance.
"There's no rush. Anyway, Ziyi has been calling them Little Six and Little Seven these days, and it sounds pretty nice to me." Chi Yan looked at the cubs being caressed by He Jiaojiao with gentle eyes.
As expected, only when he was with his mother could he feel at ease. He fell asleep in just a short while.
"You have worked hard these past few days."
He Jiaojiao suddenly raised her head with red eyes. Chi Yan was frightened and hurriedly hugged He Jiaojiao.
"Jiaojiao, we are your partner and family. You don't have to tell us this."
Yes, they are a family!
He Jiaojiao nodded. "But if it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know what to do."
Chi Yan chuckled, "We're fine. Jiaojiao, do you know that when we first came back, Ziyi looked at us as if he had seen his savior. If he wasn't afraid of being laughed at by us, he would have cried."
When Ziyi was mentioned, He Jiaojiao nodded. These days, she was immersed in the sadness of Mo Ran's serious injury and the disappearance of the cubs. Zhuxiong was busy taking care of her every day. Ziyi had to take care of the cubs and cook for her. It was really hard.
However, after this incident, Ziyi became more mature than before.
In this way, He Jiaojiao leaned in Chi Yan's arms, listening to Chi Yan talk about his experiences in the past few days, and learned how they found the cubs and what they had experienced.
Although Chi Yan looked calm and composed, He Jiaojiao knew that they must have experienced a lot of dangers, but they just didn't want to make her worry.
