Chapter Four, Lullaby

Before I knew it, an afternoon passed, and no more guests came to my house except Prince Wang. The business was too bad.

In the evening, the red clouds reflect the sky, the birds return to their nests, and there are squeaking sounds of insects in the corners of the walls. The streets also fell, and occasionally there were scattered pedestrians passing by silently.

"Young Master Zhang, it's time to eat!" Li Qingya's gentle voice came from the inner courtyard.

Zhang Mingxuan, who was idle, was excited and said happily: "Here you come!" He ran to the inner courtyard.

Li Qingya's voice came out again before she could run two steps: "Close the store door! It will be closed to business at night."

Zhang Mingxuan immediately stopped, turned around and ran back, came to the gate and closed the door, inserted it from inside, and the room suddenly fell into darkness. Zhang Mingxuan had to carefully grop and walk towards the backyard. At this time, a table had been set up in the yard, with two bowls of rice and several plates of side dishes on it. Li Qingya was sitting on the side holding the baby, and the baby was babbling and talking incomprehensible language.

Zhang Mingxuan sat opposite Li Qingya and asked in confusion: "Are we the only two of us? Well! Where is the child's father?"

Li Qingya's smiling face suddenly solidified, and she lowered her head and was silent.

Zhang Mingxuan immediately knew that he might have said the wrong thing! He immediately laughed, picked up the bowl and sucked the rice into his mouth, and said, "Che, Cheat!" In this memory, did Mr. Wang still say that Qingya would marry her in the afternoon? She should still be single!

Li Qingya listened to his strange pronunciation and ridiculous look, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and then said lightly: "You will know from now on. My father and husband have passed away due to an accident. My orphan and widowed mother run the bookstore left by her husband, and she can barely survive."

Zhang Mingxuan nodded and did not respond at all. It was obvious that this was her sad past, so it would be better not to mention it. The job he had finally found must not be lost because of talking too much. The two of them fell silent for a moment. Zhang Mingxuan quickly snatched the food in his mouth, while Li Qingya chewed it slowly and took care of the children.

After a while, Zhang Mingxuan had finished eating the rice in his bowl and burped in satisfaction. He looked at Li Qingya and said, "Sister Qingya, I'll help you hold the child! It's inconvenient for you to do this!"

Li Qingya looked at Zhang Mingxuan suspiciously, and Zhang Mingxuan patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry! I have held children a lot when I was at home."

Zhang Mingxuan reached out to Li Qingya and looked at Li Qingya sincerely. Li Qingya hesitated for a moment and put the baby in her arms in Zhang Mingxuan's arms and instructed: "Be careful!"

Zhang Mingxuan promised: "Don't worry!"

The baby started crying as soon as he arrived in Zhang Mingxuan's arms. Zhang Mingxuan immediately twisted and shook, "Be good baby! Be good baby! Don't cry! I'll sing a song for you!"

Zhang Mingxuan cleared his throat and sang: "Little baby, go to bed quickly, I will accompany you in my dreams, laugh with you and accompany you with tiredness, I snuggle with each other, little baby, go to bed quickly, you will dream of me several times, I am the most beautiful in my dreams, and I will also comfort me when I wake up. Flowers follow the flowing water, the sun hugs the spring, the pink face is smiling slightly, the tears of lovesickness are held at the corner of my mouth, birds wander in the mountains, and colorful clouds fly together..."

Not to mention, Zhang Mingxuan sang well. When the song rang, the baby stopped crying and looked at Zhang Mingxuan with big eyes. When Zhang Mingxuan finished singing, the baby even made a giggle. Li Qingya next to her was worried at first, especially when the child cried, she almost wanted to get the child back. But when Zhang Mingxuan sang, the child stopped crying and finally laughed.

Li Qingya looked at Zhang Mingxuan in surprise and asked, "Why haven't I heard of this... this little tune?"

Zhang Mingxuan's eyes turned and said, "Didn't I tell you? Have I taken care of my children a lot at home? This is what I made up when I took care of my children." Zhang Mingxuan took the lullaby for himself very shamelessly.

Li Qingya nodded and said, "Can you teach me? It seems that Yaya likes it very much."

Zhang Mingxuan nodded and said, "Yes! It's very simple, called lullaby, I'll sing it a few times first and you can listen."

Zhang Mingxuan began to hold Yaya and sing, and Yaya giggled and responded. Li Qingya slowly ate and looked at the knowing smiles on the corners of their mouths.

After a while, Li Qingya finished eating, started to clean up the tableware, put the dishes into the wooden basin, and moved them to the well to start fetching water.

Zhang Mingxuan hurriedly said, "Sister Qingya, you hold Yaya, I'll just get water!"

Li Qingya shook her head and said, "I'll do it!"

The next moment, Zhang Mingxuan knew what Li Qingya meant. A bucket of water was lifted up very easily and quickly. Zhang Mingxuan was speechless and could only sigh in his heart: "It's really worthy of being a mythical world! He is actually inferior to a woman."

While Li Qingya was washing dishes, Zhang Mingxuan asked, "Sister Qingya, do you know how to write?"

“Can some.”

Zhang Mingxuan said happily: "That's great, Sister Qingya, I plan to write a novel to sell it in a bookstore. Do you think it's OK?"

Li Qingya said without raising her head, "Novel? Notes and novels? That is, legends."

Zhang Mingxuan was stunned. Legend? Notes and Novels? Probably! Zhang Mingxuan said uncertainly: "It should be!"

"There are also books in bookstores, but the sales volume is not good."

"Can you tell me specifically?"

"The Road to Study by Mr. Caotang" tells the story of Mr. Caotang starting from childhood. It shows the warmth and warmth of human feelings, the style of the academy, the hardships of studying all the way, and it is very inspiring. "The Travels of the Taoist Lord" tells the story of a cultivator who has been successful in practicing Taoism, walking around the world, subduing demons and eliminating evil spirits, and exorcising evil spirits. "The Experience of the Ancient Battlefield" tells the story of a great scholar entering the ancient battlefield and seeing dry bones and obsessed with injustice souls everywhere. Finally, the great scholar completed the obsession of the unjust souls and purifying the battlefield. "The Great Hero Gu Nantian" tells the story of a generation of great heroes Gu Nantian traversing the rivers and lakes, killing bandits, and eliminating corrupt officials. This is the best legendary story sold recently."

Zhang Mingxuan thought to himself, what kind of messy things are there! It can be sold well, just choose a best-selling novel on Earth.com to make them full of them! I feel like I'm going to be popular! Just as Zhang Mingxuan was thinking, Li Qingya stood up, curled a strand of hair on her forehead with her jade fingers, and put it behind her ears. At that moment, she was charming. Zhang Mingxuan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated two beats. He admitted that he was being flirted with. Li Qingya seemed not aware of how seductive he was at that moment. She bent down and folded the washed dishes together, and walked towards the kitchen.

When Li Qingya walked into the kitchen, Zhang Mingxuan looked down at Yaya and said, "Yaya, okay, I'll be your father!"

Yaya smiled and shouted, "Baba,88."
