Chapter 798: He Said, Prenatal Education Should Start Early
Jiang Baobao was stunned upon hearing this, and subconsciously looked at Li Beijue beside her.
How could the three of them still remember this matter!
Was there no way to dodge it today?
As expected, children are all very curious about such things...
Jiang Baobao was caught between laughter and tears, and immediately saw the same confusion and helplessness in Li Beijue's eyes.
"Well, about that..."
She frowned in a tangle, pondering how it would be appropriate to say it.
The three little ones looked at her with eager eyes, their faces full of curiosity.
After a long while—Jiang Baobao finally gave in helplessly.
She couldn't think of it!
This was too hard to explain!
But she couldn't just brush the three of them off too much either...
Children nowadays are so smart, unlike her in the past; when her mother said they were a gift with a purchase, she actually believed it!
"Ahem..."
Jiang Baobao gave a light cough, thought for a moment, and decided to throw this question to her husband.
"How about... you go ask Daddy?"
As she spoke, she held back a laugh and deliberately lay down on the bed: "Mommy is so sleepy, let me rest for a bit first..."
Li Beijue heard this, immediately swept a glance at Jiang Baobao with amusement, and felt a bit troubled in his heart as well.
He then added another mark against Li Xiao.
The three little ones' big eyes all stared straight at Li Beijue.
Li Beijue paused slightly, his brain rarely going blank.
"Daddy, tell us quickly!"
Yanbao couldn't help but urge him.
Tiantian also chimed in: "There's no one else here besides us, does Daddy not trust us? We promise we won't tell anyone the secret!"
The little girl was very serious, and as she spoke, she patted her chest, looking like she was guaranteeing to keep the secret.
Li Beijue: "..."
It wasn't that he was deliberately not saying it.
It was that he had never thought that one day he would actually have to answer this kind of question!
His usually sharp brain felt like it had been tied into a knot.
Li Beijue suddenly felt that having him handle a hundred contracts right now would be much simpler than answering these three little ones' questions!
"Pfft..."
Jiang Baobao had been watching the show from the side for a long time and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Looking at Li Beijue's rare expression of being stumped, she thought for two seconds, and a good idea suddenly popped into her mind.
"Let me say it then..."
She sat up from the bed and signaled for the three little ones to come to her side.
Mobai pulled Yanbao and Tiantian and jumped straight onto the bed, looking expectant.
Li Beijue also looked at Jiang Baobao with some curiosity, not knowing how she intended to say it.
Then he heard Jiang Baobao say unhurriedly: "Before all children are born, they are little angels..."
"Wow..."
Tiantian really believed it and immediately showed an expression of surprise.
Mobai and Yanbao, however, were half-believing and half-doubting.
Jiang Baobao winked at Li Beijue and then continued: "And then... the little angels observe this world every day. They think the world is fun, and if they want to come down, they have to choose a pair of Daddy and Mommy they like to take care of them, so they fly into Mommy's tummy!"
"So that's how it is..."
Tiantian didn't doubt Jiang Baobao's words at all and nodded in sudden realization.
Yanbao also fell into deep thought.
Mobai, however, suddenly asked again: "Then did I want to be a boy myself? Or did Mommy want me to be a boy?"
Jiang Baobao was stunned again by his question and immediately felt a headache.
This child's train of thought jumped too fast!
How could one question lead to another!
"Let your Daddy answer this one!"
Jiang Baobao couldn't think of an answer and started passing the buck again, arching her eyebrows at Li Beijue.
It had already taken a lot of brainpower for her to come up with that answer just now!
Li Beijue had to explain something, right?
"Daddy! Then you tell us!"
Mobai immediately looked at Li Beijue as expected.
Li Beijue sighed and walked over.
"I say..."
He spoke in a low voice, suddenly picked up Tiantian with one hand, and pulled Mobai and Yanbao with the other as he walked outside!
He said while walking: "I say your Mommy needs to rest! Daddy will take you to play at Great-Grandpa's place. There is another little one in Mommy's tummy, so she needs to rest more every day. You can't be too noisy, understand?"
"Ah... Daddy is cheating!"
Mobai complained with some dissatisfaction.
But unfortunately, the "opponent's" strength was too overwhelming; he didn't even have a chance to resist.
Jiang Baobao listened with amusement as the group walked away, unable to help but reach out and stroke her lower abdomen.
It was still very flat there.
But she knew that inside, a little life was slowly growing.
Whether it was a boy or a girl, it would surely be just as cute as those three little ones.
A few days later—after staying at the manor with Li Laoyezi for a period of time, the group finally returned to Li Mansion.
Having not been back for a long time, Jiang Baobao stood in the living room feeling somewhat sentimental.
The three little ones were also incredibly happy, heading straight for their rooms as soon as they entered the door.
Jiang Baobao also returned to the bedroom.
Just as she entered, she discovered that there were several extra books at the head of the bed, stacked high!
She recalled carefully for a few seconds, remembering that these hadn't been there before, and walked over with some curiosity, picking one up at random.
Then, she suddenly froze!
"This is..."
Jiang Baobao couldn't help but let a smile spread across her face; she hurriedly flipped through the other books and couldn't help but laugh until she was doubled over.
She saw that the titles of every single book were similar.
"Precautions During Pregnancy"
"On the Importance of Prenatal Education"
"How to Care for a Pregnant Woman's Mental Health"
There was even a book titled "365 Recipes That Pregnant Women Love!"
Jiang Baobao picked up every book and read a couple of pages, her heart feeling sour and soft.
When did Li Beijue prepare these?
She hadn't even known...
And it looked like he even wanted to learn how to cook?
A "heroic feat" of someone using a golf club to kill a fish suddenly surfaced in her mind, and Jiang Baobao burst into laughter again.
Learning something else would be fine... but cooking, she'd rather he skip it!
She didn't want to get food poisoning during her pregnancy!
Just as Jiang Baobao was thinking this, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.
"Baobao, what are you looking at..."
Li Beijue walked over, but halfway through his sentence, he suddenly fell silent, staring at the books in Jiang Baobao's hands with a strange expression.
Didn't he have someone put these books in the study?
How did they end up in the bedroom?
Seeing that he seemed somewhat embarrassed, Jiang Baobao immediately teased, "I couldn't tell... I'm the one pregnant... why do you seem even more nervous than me?"
"Ahem..."
Li Beijue gave a light cough. Seeing that he had been discovered, he simply took the opportunity to pull her into his arms and planted a light kiss on her forehead.
"I..."
He opened his mouth, paused for two seconds, and then continued, "Giving birth is a very difficult thing. When you gave birth to Mobai and the others before, I wasn't by your side. Although I can't share your hardship now either, I wanted to learn as much as I could to make this time as comfortable for you as possible..."
Before Li Beijue could finish his sentence, his lips were firmly blocked by the same softness.
He was slightly stunned, a flash of a smile quickly crossing his eyes, and he took the opportunity to deepen the kiss.
Some words no longer needed to be said.
