Assassin Farmer Chapter 146 (Part 1)
Pure: Happy Holidays everyone!Chapter 146 Childbirth and Ligation (1)
On the third lunar month, spring came and flowers bloomed, welcoming Su Shuilian’s second childbirth.
Her mother-in-law, Feng Ruo Er, had smoothly delivered a pair of dragon phoenix twins on the twentieth of last month. Xue Li was so happy he didn’t want to leave the children.
It was the first half of the third lunar month, when Su Shuilian gave birth, Xue Li had yet to plan to make his return to Blood Union.
According to Jiang Ying Zhi, Su Shuilian’s estimated delivery day should be the first day of the third lunar month. However, she didn’t feel like giving birth on that day. puretl.com is the original translator, please do not repost
Jiang Ying Zhi skeptically gazed at the woman in front of her. “Tell me, be honest. What has your icy-faced husband fed you?”
Generally speaking, the stronger she was, the bigger chance she could deliver the baby safely. The more nutrients the baby could take from the mother, the more developed it would be. To be honest, with Su Shuilian’s health, Yang Jing Zhi didn’t think that her labor day would be delayed.
“Nothing,” Su Shuilian was bewildered. It was actually nothing. Except for one time he couldn’t talk her out, so he had to take her to Mount Da Shi to visit Xiao Chun’s family. At that time, she felt thirsty so she had drunk several sips of water from a stream mixed with the Jade Heart Divine Marrow in the wolf den. Could it be because of that? But how could it be? When she bore Xiao-er and Long-er, she used to drink the same. In total, she was sure she had drunk about the same amount this time, but still, she had an early delivery. Moreover, her labor hadn’t been so smooth.
“Then, it’s so strange…” Yang Jing Zhi looked confused. “Anyway, I can tell you’re very healthy. Don’t need to worry. Even if it’s late, it shouldn’t be more than half a month. I guess your labor will come in several days.”
Indeed, on the noon of the twelfth, after the morning walk with Lin Si Yao, she began to have her contractions. Her delivery was fast and smooth. She had to bear the pain for less than one hour before delivering a chubby baby boy around eight pounds.
The people waiting outside the delivery room cheered joyfully. Especially the boy’s uncles. They were competing against each other to take the baby and take him under their wings.
“Hey, you’ve chosen Long-er, haven’t you? This one is mine!” Si Chong held the chubby boy tight. The boy was now sleeping after screaming and crying for a while after his birth. Si Chong couldn’t help but quarrel against Si Tuo.
“Long-er is Long-er. He is he. Who says that after I’ve chosen Long-er that I can’t hold him?” Si Tuo crossed his arms in front of his chest and teased. It was really amusing to tease that rough man Si Chong
“Psst!” Si Chong ignored Si Tuo’s remarks.
When the twins chose the items to predict their future Zhuazhou*, Lin Long didn’t fail people’s expectations when picking the jade thumb ring that represented the Mastership of Feng Yao Court. She had become the heiress Si Tuo would try his best to train, so after thirteen years she would inherit his position.
Pure: Zhuazhou / 抓周 - A custom of placing a variety of articles (writing brush, abacus etc) before an infant on their first birthday to see which one they pick up (The article chosen is supposed to be an indication of the child's inclinations, future career etc.)
From that day onward, Si Ling’s face was always dark whenever he saw Si Tuo, but Lin Long had chosen the item herself. So, before she turned thirteen years old, no one had the right to interfere with whether she would decide to inherit the Mastership of Feng Yao Court or not.
As for Lin Xiao, when he chose the item, among the golden, jade, and silver accessories that represented different professions and titles, he had chosen a small wooden ladle that someone had put in. He made people speechless, indeed. puretl.com is the original translator, please do not repost
The son of the main-line daughter of Prince Jing’s mansion and the Blood Union’s Crown Prince… The son of a noble lady who was excellent at embroidering and an outstanding assassin, would become… a chef?
Uhh... They still felt strange whenever they recalled the event.
In the end, Yang Jing Zhi, the one with the most pretentious smile, had pulled Lin Xiao into her arms, kissing the baby continuously. “Hehe, baby, a chef and a doctor are very similar. They are all about life skills. So, do you want to change the profession and work with Auntie? I’m sure in fifteen years, you will become the most famous doctor in Da Hui.”
Yang Jing Zhi’s fast reflex made Si Chong so regretful. He was just one step slower, and Yang Jing Zhi had snatched his opportunity!
Woo woo wpp! Although he had many disciples, what he wanted was someone who would receive his inheritance after he was gone. His disciples all rushed away whenever he told them to get married and have kids.
He had been yearning for the time Si Ling’s child to choose the items to predict their future in hope that one of them would choose the token of Guangci House, which he purposely made colorful to attract the twins. And the result? Lin Long threw it under the carpet in the blink of an eye.
He swore that the little evil Lin Long, who had just turned one year old, had shown naked contempt for him at that time!
So, he decided that he must hold this fat boy in his arms. He would keep holding him every day until the boy only followed Si Chong and not his father, Si Ling. He would hold the boy until he picked the Guangci House’s token during Zhuazhou and nothing else!
Humph! This time, next year, he would save his face, which he had lost in this Zhuazhou.
