Chapter 1333
"Who's talking?"
Luo Quan was so startled she almost jumped up, but once she realized there was no one else in the room, she immediately looked at her stomach.
"Is that you, Ningning?!" Luo Quan asked with a look of surprise.
Although the Pope had reminded her that children could communicate with their mothers even before they were born, he hadn't said it would happen so soon.
Could it be that she had supplemented too much nutrition, causing Ningning to develop ahead of schedule?
Wait a minute, if that's the case, why would she be calling out that she's hungry?
"I'm so hungry, Mom. I want to eat braised pork ribs."
The cute voice came again, but Luo Quan felt a bit chaotic after hearing it.
"How am I supposed to feed you braised pork ribs?" Luo Quan's expression became a bit distressed.
"Mom, after you eat them, I'll be able to taste them too, right?"
Is that even possible?
Luo Quan was skeptical, but since her daughter had said so, she would go make a pot of braised pork ribs; they were going into her stomach anyway.
Coming downstairs, everyone in the living room looked over in unison.
"What do you want for breakfast? Tangyuan or dumplings?" Aunt Luo Ni put the melon seeds in her hand on the coffee table and asked while clapping her hands.
"Braised pork ribs," Luo Quan replied.
"Eat braised pork ribs?" Aunt Luo Ni was stunned for a moment, "Who eats braised pork ribs first thing in the morning?"
"Ningning said she wanted to eat this, and asked me to eat it so she could taste it too."
When Gao Liang heard this, he burst out laughing: "If you want to eat it, just say you want to eat it. Why use Ningning as a shield?"
"It's really her who wants to eat it," Luo Quan said, patting her belly, "Daughter, tell them if it's you who wants to eat it."
"It is indeed me who wants to eat it," Luo Ning replied.
But no one except Luo Quan could hear Luo Ning's voice.
Then, "Gurgle~~~~"
"Did you guys hear a sound?" Gao Liang turned his head to look at everyone.
"I heard someone's stomach growling."
"It seems she really is hungry."
"Alright, I'll go stew them, but it might take a while."
After some discussion, Aunt Luo Ni got up and walked toward the kitchen.
"Daughter, what's going on?" Luo Quan looked at her belly with confusion.
Luo Ning replied aggrievedly: "I've also awakened my consciousness, but I don't have vocal organs yet. I can only communicate with you, Mom, through spiritual power, so Grandpa, Grandma, and Uncle can't hear me."
"No wonder."
After learning the reason, Luo Quan didn't say anything else, but returned to her room, intending to ask her daughter properly.
After lying on the bed, Luo Quan gently touched her belly, as if she were stroking her daughter's head: "Ningning, when exactly did you wake up? How can you communicate with Mom before you're even born?"
"I already awakened yesterday while you were sleeping, Mom, but at that time I was like a normal baby and couldn't speak.
Throughout the night, most of Mom's knowledge was poured into my mind, so I'm actually about as smart as Mom now."
Luo Ning's answer made Luo Quan very happy.
What are the most painful moments of raising a child?
Undoubtedly, one is the stage right after birth when they cry at the drop of a hat, and the other is when they first enter kindergarten and are at a loss when facing various subjects.
A baby's crying doesn't reason with you, and it's extremely destructive. Once they start, it can pierce your eardrums and go straight to your mind, making you instantly alert when you were originally sleepy.
By the time you've exhausted yourself trying to coax the child to sleep, you basically can't fall asleep yourself anymore.
Once or twice is fine, but over time, an adult's mental state is very prone to problems. This is also why postpartum depression is becoming more and more common; you can't say it has nothing to do with a baby's night crying.
And after getting through this period, you'll enter a few relatively stable years.
During these years, children are in the stage of personality formation. As long as adults educate them properly, it's easy to teach a child to be a polite and well-bred good baby.
And when the child starts school, the second stage of torture arrives.
Anyone will find it boring and difficult when they first start learning; very few people fall in love with learning.
And when people are forced to do something, their efficiency is often very low.
Simply put, they can't learn it, or their brain simply can't accept so much knowledge.
And school teachers are very fond of asking parents to tutor their children's homework.
Parents have to work during the day and teach homework at night, and they usually don't have much patience.
But when it comes to learning knowledge, you can lack anything, but you cannot lack patience.
Seeing their own child being so stupid, unable to learn a knowledge point after being told n times, any parent would get angry.
Once they get angry, they get anxious; once they get anxious, the child cries, and then they fall into a vicious cycle.
That's why you can often see news about parents being sent to the hospital after tutoring homework; it shows just how huge the lethality of this matter is.
Although Luo Quan didn't think she would be so impatient, it would indeed be easy to get angry if the child was too stupid.
Now there's no need to worry about these things; the child has acquired wisdom directly from her brain, omitting the trouble of harvesting knowledge bit by bit.
However, you lose something when you gain something. Although the child is sensible at a young age, she has also lost the joy of witnessing Ningning go from babbling to calling her "Mom" for the first time.
You can only say that there are gains and losses. Although Luo Quan isn't unable to accept it, she still feels a bit regretful when she thinks about it sometimes.
"Mom, what do you think I'll look like after I'm born? Will I be pretty, ordinary, or ugly?"
Luo Quan was just thinking about her own affairs when she suddenly heard her daughter ask, and she burst out laughing: "You have appearance anxiety at such a young age? How can you tell the looks of a newborn baby?"
"It's because I don't know that I'm worried. If I don't look good, then besides my family, will no one else like me?"
Luo Ning's voice sounded very worried. Not only did she have appearance anxiety at a young age, but she also had an idol's burden.
Or perhaps this is a born star, eager to get everyone's attention under the spotlight, so she hopes her image can be better.
"Although I know that many people will like me if I have talent, I don't know what kind of talent I have. Facing the vast amount of knowledge I got from Mom, I'm really quite lost."
Luo Ning's answer made Luo Quan fall into deep thought. It seems the road to educating her daughter is still long.
Although she didn't know what method Ningning used to inherit a considerable portion of knowledge from her.
But it was all graffiti-like, unsystematic, and unrefined.
It was stuffed into her head in a mess. It looked like a lot, but it's actually not easy to grasp when to use what knowledge.
To truly be able to use it freely, she still has to read it seriously herself.
Thinking of this, Luo Quan's passion for educating her daughter was instantly ignited.
As a streamer who likes to sharply comment on various real-time events, being fond of teaching others is her shortcoming, but it's also her strength.
At least she has more patience than the average person and is more willing to explain big principles to others.
If the object is her daughter, her interest is even more exuberant.
As for looks, this is the point that needs the least worry.
Her daughter's genes are completely inherited from her, and she didn't even give anyone else a chance to pollute her genes.
Therefore, the possibility of her daughter having average looks after growing up is only 0.0001%.
Talent, IQ, athletic talent—these are all unknown.
But only in terms of looks, she can pat her chest and guarantee it to her daughter without hesitation.
"Daughter, I don't know about other things, but you don't have to have appearance anxiety anymore in the future."
Luo Quan said as she walked directly to the mirror: "Do you see Mom's appearance? Even if you can't surpass your mother in the future, just being able to look like Mom is enough to beat countless people!"
"I can't see it, Mom. Currently, I can only use my sense of taste and hearing. I'll have to wait a few more days to activate my vision."
Luo Ning's voice was anxious and helpless: "I really want to see what Mom looks like. Is she really as amazing as they say?"
"Good daughter." Luo Quan stroked her forehead and smiled, "You can question everything, but you absolutely don't need to question Mom's looks. It's truly a beauty you can't imagine."
Generally, Luo Quan wouldn't brag about herself like this. After all, her looks are there, and there are plenty of people to help her brag.
But her daughter doesn't seem to realize how beautiful her mother is, and this must be corrected in time.
"Really? That's great." Luo Ning cheered immediately, but then asked: "Then will Mom be a bit stupid?"
This sudden question made Luo Quan's eyes widen: "How could you have this idea? Is there anywhere Mom makes you feel like her IQ isn't enough?"
Luo Quan was very hurt. Her daughter questioned her IQ. Did the things she just said expose the fact that she had no substance?
"I've seen many books saying that beautiful women are generally not too smart, and also saying that a woman without talent is virtuous, and that beautiful women are prone to disaster, and so on."
Luo Ning's answer made Luo Quan stunned, and then she immediately educated her: "These are just slanders against women. There is no scientific basis at all. Ningning, you must never believe these, don't believe even a punctuation mark!"
"Is that so?" Luo Ning nodded vigorously, "Daughter knows now. Then Mom must be both beautiful and smart."
"That goes without saying." Luo Quan showed a smug smile, "Your mother's intelligence is famous all over the world. Back in the day..."
Just like that, Luo Quan told her daughter all the praise she had received for her looks since her debut.
Luo Ning already had a preliminary understanding of her mother in her heart.
Perhaps her mother is really very beautiful, but she must also be very narcissistic!
"What a cute mother, just like a child," Luo Ning thought.
Mother and daughter didn't know how long they had been chatting when Gao Liang's call sounded outside the door.
The braised pork ribs were stewed, and he asked Luo Quan to come downstairs to eat quickly, lest they get cold.
But before Luo Quan could move slowly from the bed, her father had already brought up a large basin of braised pork ribs, accompanied by a bowl of fragrant rice.
"Your mom said it's better not to let you go downstairs, so I brought it up for you to eat, and she asked if you want me to feed you." Eric asked his daughter with a smile.
"No need, no need." Luo Quan hurriedly waved her hand, "I was too tired yesterday, so I let Mom feed me. I'm not like that usually."
"Why be so polite in the family?" Eric laughed.
"Dad, I'm also a bit tired after exercising yesterday. Can you feed me?" Gao Liang asked his father pitifully.
"Feed you my ass, don't you have hands?" Eric turned his head and kicked him, hitting his son's butt squarely, sending the grinning Gao Liang flying.
"There's still a big pot of ribs downstairs. Just call out if you don't have enough after eating." Her father put the ribs on Luo Quan's computer desk, his tone instantly becoming gentle.
"It's enough, it's enough. I can't even finish these." Luo Quan looked at the large basin of ribs in front of her, and her saliva was already secreting rapidly.
"Mom, were those Grandpa and Uncle just now?"
After Eric left, Luo Ning asked Luo Quan curiously.
"Yeah, aren't they fun?" Luo Quan picked up her chopsticks and said while picking up a large piece of rib.
"They sound like brothers, not father and son."
Her daughter's retort made Luo Quan feel it was very apt, and she said with a smile: "You'll know later that they are actually quite like enemies."
As she spoke, she brought the rib to her nose and took a deep breath: "These ribs were stewed by your Grandma. How is it? Can you smell them?"
"You have to eat them for me to taste them. Just smelling isn't enough."
Hearing her daughter's words, Luo Quan opened her mouth directly.
The ribs were stewed very tenderly. Although each piece was large, Luo Quan's mouth had excellent extensibility. When she was small, it was like a cherry; when she was big, she could stuff an apple in one bite. Eating ribs was even more of a breeze.
It can only be said that it's fortunate she wasn't live streaming at this moment, otherwise the nickname "Abyssal Maw" would probably never be washed off.
"Wow, so delicious."
After Luo Quan swallowed the rib meat, Luo Ning also let out a satisfied and comfortable moan.
"If it's delicious, then I'll eat more."
Luo Quan lowered her head and picked up another piece. After dipping the sauce into the rice, she opened her mouth directly and sucked all the meat that had almost fallen off the bone, then chewed while shoveling the rice into her mouth.
That's how it is with dishes and rice: salty, fresh, tender, hard, sweet, and spicy. Several flavors and textures collided back and forth in the melting pot of the mouth. After being cut into small pieces by the teeth, they finally turned into great satisfaction and were all swallowed into the stomach.
At this point, your tongue, throat, and even your stomach will get huge pleasure from eating.
This is the enjoyment that food brings to people.
And although Luo Ning hadn't been born yet, she had already had a wonderful experience in terms of appetite.
And this was just the beginning. The dishes her mother made were the true ultimate enjoyment.
However, although this piece of braised pork rib had satisfied her very much, she didn't know why she still felt something was missing.
What exactly was that throbbing that acted on the soul, and where should it come from?
Luo Ning didn't know, and didn't want to understand for the time being. She just wanted to eat her fill of these braised pork ribs first.
