Chapter 153 May I go and cultivate?
-
From then on, the daily routine of taking care of the baby became occasionally chaotic. Leng Huan's daily tasks were feeding the baby and cultivating. Fu Xun took care of all other miscellaneous matters.
After refining another Myriad Spirit Fruit, Leng Huan's body finally fully recovered, and her cultivation was stable, much better than she had expected in half a month.
Babies are easy to take care of these days. As long as you take care of their eating, drinking, and toileting needs, they usually sleep, which helps them grow quite fast.
She gained several pounds in just half a month, and her face also matured, with fair and tender skin. Leng Huan stared at the child's features for a long time, and sure enough, the more she looked at her, the more she resembled Fu Xun, but her mouth and face shape were like her own.
She's a cute chubby baby!
I felt a surge of pride; my son really is very good-looking.
"Hehe, little Yundu, don't grow up to be crooked...give me a kiss~" She lowered her head and quietly kissed the baby's chubby face.
Of course, the child was sleeping soundly and hadn't woken up yet. Leng Huan walked to the bedside, sat down, and took the Secret Realm Atlas to study.
This baby is only half a month old, so it seems we can't leave here right away. If we were to leave, we'd really be dragging the whole family along.
It's still a long way to the center of the secret realm, and it's not safe either. Leng Huan is starting to have some reservations now.
Lost in thought, a figure suddenly appeared beside me.
Leng Huan looked up at Fu Xun: "You're back? How were you?"
Fu Xun walked over and took out the baby clothes and diapers he had cut and sewn. "It's nothing, just some cultivators who came to explore the area."
This cave is well-hidden and heavily guarded, so it was basically undiscovered. The cultivators who just wandered in here were just those who had mistakenly entered the mountains. They quickly ran away after sensing the presence of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
As he spoke, he sorted through a pile of baby clothes. Fortunately, he had prepared a lot of daily necessities before entering the secret realm. He had dozens of sets of Leng Huan's everyday clothes and robes, as well as countless other cloaks, capes, and blankets. He picked out the suitable ones and cut them to size for the child.
Regarding the diapers, Fu Xun suggested using one and throwing it away, but Leng Huan absolutely refused, saying that used ones were more down-to-earth.
So Fu Xun had no choice but to wash and dry everything that could be washed. He had just gone to collect the clothes... Leng Huan said they needed to be exposed to sunlight for disinfection and to ward off evil spirits.
Over this period of time, they have become busy but organized, and the two novice parents have successfully become qualified parents.
The practice of feeding children water instead of food will never happen again.
The baby will soon be a month old.
"Senior sister, it's almost dusk. Let's seize the day and form a bond."
After putting the child to sleep that day, Fu Xun pulled Leng Huan toward the cave entrance. It was a beautiful, sunny day.
Leng Huan was stunned for a moment. When he went outside, he saw that the sky was full of colorful clouds and the setting sun was hidden in the thick clouds and evening glow, with only half of it showing.
It was indeed a beautiful day. The four seasons here are not very distinct, feeling like summer yet autumn. The environment hasn't changed much in the past few months.
However, this was the first time Leng Huan had seen such a magnificent sunset here. Well, then, glancing at Fu Xun, his eyes reflected the sunset, and as he turned his head, his face, half-lit and half-shadowed, was sharply defined. It was only then that he realized—
Deja vu.
The boyish face I first saw back then has grown into such a mature appearance now.
Leng Huan felt a mix of emotions. Looking closely at his handsome yet callous face—in layman's terms, the face of a scumbag—he inappropriately thought that Leng Huan had actually gone to wash diapers.
Leng Huan: ……
Quickly look away, oh my god, the male lead has really become a stay-at-home dad!
"Where's the marriage certificate?" She scratched her face. "How do we get married?"
"Ready." Fu Xun flipped his right hand, revealing a large red brocade marriage certificate in his palm.
He first formed the Daoist Couple Contract, and slowly recited: "Heaven and earth bear witness, the sun and moon are our witnesses, today we two become Daoist Couples, this is our covenant, and we have established our marriage certificate. If I betray you, I will go against the will of Heaven, and may my name be removed from the Six Realms, never to be reincarnated again."
This is the vow of a Daoist couple. After he finished reading it, the vow turned into golden words and was engraved on the marriage certificate.
Then, looking expectantly at Leng Huan, she had no choice but to form the hand seal as instructed and recite: "Heaven and earth bear witness, the sun and moon are my witness... If I betray you, it is to deceive Heaven, and the crime of deceiving Heaven will lead to my death and the extinction of my soul."
This oath carries the power of laws and is recognized by the Heavenly Dao.
After she finished reading it, she felt something mysterious and profound appear and wrap around her. Leng Huan sighed silently, "This is even more powerful than marriage."
Generally, there is no divorce, only widowhood.
With a flash of golden light, the marriage certificate's restrictions were automatically generated and were put away by Fu Xun.
Then, just as Leng Huan was about to share his thoughts on the marriage, he suddenly pulled her into a hug, gently resting his chin on the top of her head, and asked, "Senior sister, now you can't back out no matter what, right?"
"...Of course not, why would I go back on my word?"
Leng Huan, in high spirits, grabbed his collar and pulled his head down, then chuckled, "A father as good as you... is hard to find even with a lantern, and I'm not stupid."
After saying that, while Fu Xun was still in a daze, she reached out and pressed down on the back of his neck, gave him a big kiss, and then taught him a French kiss.
The first time I kissed someone, they were completely stunned.
Sunset glows, wild geese fly in pairs, stone platform faces the newlyweds.
Noticing that Fu Xun's hand around her waist was tightening, Leng Huan quickly pushed him away and retreated!
If she weren't afraid of losing control, she could have continued teasing him. Men can't resist being provoked, and she would have been the one to suffer in the end.
As for whether they would become Daoist partners or husband and wife, Leng Huan decided to let nature take its course.
One point against one point, one heart against one heart.
My conscience would hurt if I didn't have her, but it wouldn't be enough if I had her too.
The clouds are so beautiful today. I'd like to wish myself a happy marriage.
As soon as I entered the cave, I heard a baby's soft voice. I went to the cradle and saw that the baby had woken up, with round, black eyes, but hadn't cried yet.
It was supposed to be his full moon celebration, but the adults went to get married instead. Feeling guilty, Leng Huan picked up her son and kissed his cheek. Fu Xun appeared beside her and asked, "He's awake. Why aren't you crying?"
As soon as I asked the question, the child burst into tears.
Leng Huan stared at him speechlessly, and subconsciously reached to lift her shirt, but suddenly remembered something and shooed him away, "You go away, I'll feed him."
"..." Fu Xun originally wanted to settle scores with her about flirting and running away, so he could only agree and leave.
Before turning around, Fu Xun glanced at Leng Huan, who had his back to him. He clenched his fingertips, his eyes dark and deep. "Never mind, there's no rush."
Leng Huan is acting recklessly because he has a get-out-of-jail-free card, but what goes around comes around.
-
night.
After Leng Huan finished feeding the child, she prepared to continue cultivating for a while. Just as she put the sleeping child in the cradle, Fu Xun came in.
He was holding two red candles, and what's even more outrageous is that he had changed into a wedding robe.
Leng Huan: "..."
After a moment of silence, she asked, "What's this?"
"Senior Sister, today we form a bond." Fu Xun slowly walked over, waved his hand, and red candles fell onto the stone table by the bedside, igniting with a "rustling" sound.
Form a bond, and then what?
Leng Huan took a step back and watched as he placed the cradle next door and then set up a protective barrier, ensuring the child slept peacefully.
“…Do you believe me if I say I’m not well yet?” Seeing Fu Xun approach, Leng Huan retreated to the corner behind the screen.
Fu Xun glanced at her and said, "Yes, but that doesn't stop us from having our hair-tying ceremony."
So that's all there is to it. Leng Huanxin relaxed for a moment. "How do we tie our hair together?"
Fu Xun took out a set of women's wedding robes, which were dazzling and jewel-encrusted, leaving Leng Huan speechless.
"So, when did you prepare all this? The red candle wedding robe is too much."
Fu Xun raised an eyebrow: "How could that be? It was just prepared along with the marriage certificate back then. Senior sister, try it on."
Leng Huan hesitated for a moment: "Are you sure it's just a hair-tying ceremony?"
Fu Xun nodded, while Leng Huan frowned: "Then why did you put the child next door?"
"I'm afraid of disturbing him." Fu Xun smiled innocently, "Senior sister, why are you worried about me?"
Leng Huan immediately shook his head: "Of course not!"
It's just wearing a wedding dress. With a simple gesture, the red robe wraps around her. She doesn't need much adornment; just a white jade hairpin is enough to make the gorgeous and luxurious wedding dress look good.
Fu Xun, satisfied, personally placed the phoenix crown on her head. "Senior Sister, Heaven and Earth have revealed our relationship; we must now bow to each other as husband and wife."
What?
Leng Huan bowed to him in a daze, waiting for him to finish cutting his hair before going to cultivate. But he slowly tied their hair together and continued to stare at her intently.
Feeling uneasy under his gaze, she had no choice but to stare back at him. Fu Xun was wearing a fitted round-necked robe, tall and with long legs, a gentlemanly and upright appearance. He was handsome, but why was he looking at her?
Leng Huan was silent for a moment, then asked, "May I go and cultivate now?"
