It’s the Same, Whoever Gives Birth (2)
“There’s a python.” Su Yanyi’s low voice warned the people present. A few jungle keepers immediately explained: “That’s a green tree python. They don’t have any poison and they aren’t daring. They won’t take the initiative to attack us, don’t worry.”
Green tree pythons were night animals and their bodies were green. If it weren’t for Su Yanyi’s good eyesight, it would be hard to spot the green tree pythons that usually hid in the leaves.
“What a pretty snake.” Little Su Nuo also saw the green tree python and had immediately been mesmerised by its colour.
“Does the Young Master like it? I can catch one for you to play with?” Although they were called jungle keepers, those who lived in and worked at the jungle all had decent skills. They would usually catch various animals themselves for observation.
“Is that okay?” Little Su Nuo raised his head and looked expectantly at his father.
“As long as you like it.” Su Yanmo waved his hand and immediately, two of the jungle keepers walked carefully towards the green tree python.
Green tree pythons were a popular domestic snake breed as they were more docile compared to other snakes. However, they were still wild animals so the jungle keepers only dared to hold it themselves for little Su Nuo to touch after capturing one. The others also gathered around but they weren’t interested in the snake. Rather, they thought it was fun to watch little Su Nuo carefully touching the snake.
“Little snakey, you’re so pretty. Don’t be scared, I’m just patting you. We’ll release you in a bit.” Little Su Nuo carefully stroked it while comforting the somewhat uneasy little snake. Although little Su Nuo was young, he still knew that the little snake belonged in this jungle and wouldn’t want to bring it home to raise it as a pet.
“We can bring it home.” Su Yanmo obviously didn’t understand his son’s intentions and reminded him at the side.
“But if we take it home, it won’t be with it’s daddy and mummy.” Little Su Nuo blinked his eyes as if saying ‘it’s really lonely if you leave your family, it’s better to live happily with your family’.
The jungle keepers smiled at a corner but didn’t mention that snakes didn’t care about families. Besides, judging by the colour of the green tree python, it wasn’t a baby anymore.
In the end, the green tree python was released. Little Su Nuo happily said bye to the green tree python and they all continued exploring.
In the jungle besides animals, there were also various types of plants. Under the guide of a few jungle keepers, they gathered some wild herbs to use for lunch. Actually, they were planning to hunt a few small animals for lunch too but because little Su Nuo was watching, the adults couldn’t bear to do it. Luckily, little Su Nuo didn’t feel that killing fishes was wrong so they caught a few for lunch when they stopped at a lake.
While fis.h.i.+ng, Qin Jiran and Su Yanyi both went down. This was something that the both of them had done before and they were very fast and accurate. In a short time, they caught quite a few fishes but they were both drenched. When the two of them carried the fishes onto the sh.o.r.e and saw the sorry state they were both in, they laughed happily.
Qin Jiran had wanted to roast the fish himself but in a rare occurrence, Su Yanyi voluntarily took on the role of head chef and according to the System’s teaching, prepared an extremely delicious meal for everybody.
“The brat’s cooking skills are getting better and better, it’s just that she’s too lazy and isn’t willing to cook.” Grandpa Su ate a big mouth of fish while nagging with unsatisfaction. Ever since Su Yanyi had prepared the dishes over the new year, he had been missing it but Su Yanyi had been too lazy and had no intention of cooking.
“It’s not that she isn’t willing to cook, it’s that she isn’t willing to cook for us. This time it’s probably due to Qin Jiran, isn’t that right Yanyi?” Mother Su sourly made a dig at Su Yanyi. Don’t think she didn’t know that this brat Su Yanyi cooked for Qin Jiran behind their backs, she had seem the pictures on Weibo!
“This is called having a husband and forgetting the grandfather. Brat, that isn’t right of you.” Grandpa Su glared at Su Yanyi with dissatisfaction, just that his eyes held only laughter and no threat at all.
“I’ll cook for you when we get back.” After thinking for a bit, Su Yanyi decided to fulfil the Old Man’s wish. After all, they had spent quite a bit of Grandpa’s money on the trip, this could be taken as compensation.
“So nice of you? You can’t trick your grandpa okay, it’s a promise.” Grandpa Su smiled happily immediately. He thought his granddaughter was really not bad, he didn’t at all think that this meal was likely bought with billions of dollars.
“Nuonuo likes to eat it too, can Nuonuo come and eat too?” Little Su Nuo also loved his Little Aunty’s cooking, it was just that Little Aunty was too scary so he never dared to say it.
“You can but there’s one condition!” Su Yanyi looked towards little Su Nuo and said somewhat seriously.
Even if it wasn’t for the sake of a meal, little Su Nuo also wouldn’t dare to refuse a request from Su Yanyi. In the entire family, he was most scared of his Little Aunty!
“Nuonuo will definitely listen. Whatever little Aunty says, Nuonuo will definitely listen.” Little Su Nuo nodded his head with all his might, demonstrating very seriously that he definitely did not have the courage to refuse!
“In the future when you meet me and your Little Uncle, you have to address me first, understand?” Su Yanyi said very seriously.
Beloved Queen, just how petty are you!
After hearing what Su Yanyi said, the entire family went silent for a second then laughed together. Only little Su Nuo was confused, he didn’t understand why his Little Aunty would bring up such a condition.
After an enjoyable lunch, the lot of them ventured a bit further into the jungle though with old and young amongst them, they didn’t venture too deep. They just led everyone to see monkeys, tigers, wild boars, and crocodiles and then left the jungle before the sky went dark.
Little Su Nuo was so excited his little face was red. After coming out of the jungle, he kept looking back with reluctance at the jungle.
“In the future when we have time, Dad will bring you back to play, okay?” Su Yanmo couldn’t bare to see that so he comforted him in a low voice.
“En, and with Great-Grandpa and Grandma.” Little Su Nuo his head forcefully. He really liked this place, there were so, so many animals and there was kind of mysterious vibe as if they were in a different world.
“Yup, we’ll go with everyone.”
That night, they had a bonfire by the ocean. A few members of the Su family who had received training here also prepared a performance for them, including various somersaults. Little Su Nuo watched until his eyes went wide. He waved his little fist around as if he also wanted to perform.
“Daddy, when Nuonuo grows up can he be that awesome too?” Little Su Nuo looked at the performers as if they were superheroes. He also wants to be a superhero when he grows ups. Forward somersaults, backward somersaults, side flips, and 360 degree turns, it really was too exciting!
“Nuonuo also wants to learn martial arts?”
“Yeah!”
“Then Dad will arrange for someone to train you when we get back. It’s just that learning martial arts is very tough, can you hold on?” Su Yanmo was thinking that he was about little Su Nuo’s age when he had started training. He had been considering letting little Su Nuo begin training but it was tough and he wasn’t sure if little Su Nuo could persevere on.
“Nuonuo can do it. Nuonuo will definitely hold on. When Nuonuo becomes great, he can protect Daddy.” Little Su Nuo said very seriously and expectantly as he waved his little fist around.
Su Yanmo felt warm inside as he hugged his son tightly. Having a son was such a nice feeling.
“Yanyi, you should give birth to a child too.” Su Yanmo suddenly said to Su Yanyi. He felt that having a son was really such a fortune and he wanted his most beloved sister to experience that same feeling.
At first, Su Yanyi had been enjoying the meet that Qin Jiran had specially roasted for her but after having just a bite, she heard what her brother had said and became speechless.
Now even her brother had begun pus.h.i.+ng her to have a kid? Su Yanyi was in a bit of a conundrum. Regarding the problem of having kids, it wasn’t like she could just give birth whenever she wanted!
“Ah, Little Aunty is going to give Nuonuo a little brother?” Little Su Nuo immediately turned his round eyes to Su Yanyi when he heard the word ‘child’. His eyes held a lot of expectation.
“It could be a little sister.” Su Yanmo explained. He felt that he should not raise his child to value males over females. A little brother and a little sister should be equally cute.
“Ah, there’s even a little sister? Then Nuonuo wants a little sister, a pretty little sister.” Little Su Nuo became even happier after hearing this. His entire body bounced up as he used his little stubby legs to run towards Su Yanyi.
“Little Aunty, give birth to a little sister okay? Nuonuo really likes little sisters.” Little Su Nuo blinked his eyes as he said this to Su Yanyi. He even gave her an extremely brilliant smile.
Su Yanyi’s face went cold. Her brows drew together as she said in anger (borne from embarra.s.sment): “Ask your father to give birth to one for you.”
“Ah, Daddy can give birth to a baby too?” Little Su Nuo asked his father blankly, that gaze of his was as if he were staring at an alien!
Su Yanmo’s brows also drew together, his face was very similar to Su Yanyi’s. He walked over, carried little Su Nuo and said: “Stupid child, only Little Aunty can give birth, Dad can’t. Dad’s a guy, you are also a guy. We can’t give birth, understand?”
“But, but Little Aunty said…” Little Su Nuo felt a bit wronged. Daddy said he was a stupid child but he wasn’t stupid at all, okay? That was what Little Aunty said, not him. The stupid one was Little Aunty!
Thinking to this point, Little Su Nuo stole a glance at Su Yanyi but he did not dare to speak out his thoughts. Little Aunty’s face was really scary. He was really scared!
“Hahaha, whoever gives birth is the same. As long as you guys are willing to give birth, we’ll be happy.” Old Man Su was watching the excitement and not afraid to blow things up. He didn’t mind at all whether a child came from his granddaughter’s stomach or his grandson’s stomach.
Su Yanyi and Su Yanmo couldn’t help but to glare at their Grandpa together. Can they stop talking about having kids, it really was enough!
