Moodless Court.
Sage Cai was teaching Huan Qing Yan how to prepare the daily medicinal bath for the baby.
Huan Qing Yan would never allow the baby to leave her side again. Sage Cai and Ji Mo Ya had no intention to forcefully take away the baby as well.
What a joke, they had finally coaxed this daughter-in-law back after many difficulties, even having to rely on the baby to leave a better impression. Even if Huan Qing Yan did mind having the baby by her side, Ji Mo Ya would also think of a method to leave the baby with Huan Qing Yan.
Huan Qing Yan was learning every detail from Sage Cai. How to adjust the temperature, when to use the ingredients, the duration required to soak the medicine, when to change components, how long the baby needs to bath in it, etc.…
Sage Cai bathed the baby one round. The obedient child cooperated very well and looked like he was enjoying the process.
“Yan Lass, give it a try.”
Sage Cai instructed Huan Qing Yan to do it for the next round. When Huan Qing Yan took over, the baby happily said, “Mummy. Mummy~”
Constantly calling out.
He even splashed the bathwater everywhere, splattering onto Huan Qing Yan.
Ji Mo Ya was waiting for a chance to increase his presence and quickly commented, “Don’t be cheeky, else your mother’s dress would become wet.”
In the end, the baby did not splash any water at Huan Qing Yan but aimed it at Ji Mo Ya instead.
The family of three laughed, turning the atmosphere very amicable and peaceful.
Sage Cai looked at the scene and silently rejoiced, “Yan Lass, there are many types of herbs used in the medicinal bath. I will let Little Ya explain to you in detail, this old man needs to go first as some matters need my attention.”
“Please go first if Ancestral Uncle has matters to attend to.” Ji Mo Ya gracefully replied.
Huan Qing Yan could not stop Sage Cai from leaving as well. Besides, all her attention was now focused on the baby back at her side.
“Farewell, Sage Cai.”
After Sage Cai left, the baby stopped playing. Quite an amount of the precious medicinal bath has been splashed out, Ji Mo Ya had no choice but to forcefully pin down the kid.
“Be gentle, don’t hurt the child.”
“I know.”
When the baby felt immobilized, he made faces at Ji Mo Ya, “Dad, bad… bad… let go… let go…”
Huan Qing Yan felt her heart ached again, “Quickly release him. Just this bit of medicinal bath is fine.”
Ji Mo Ya undecidedly lifted his brow before releasing the baby. Listen to the wife. At most, the medicinal bath will be wasted, they can just brew another batch for the kid.
All it will be taking is more time and medicinal herbs.
He could use this chance to accompany Little Yan longer.
When Ji Mo Ya was thinking things through, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly and revealed a light smirk of joy.
Who knew that Huan Qing Yan would say next, “Baby, this medicinal water is to make your body healthy. If you waste it, the effects on your body will reduce significantly. Be an obedient baby. Let’s bath properly and stop playing, okay?”
Who knew that the baby would reply with his baby voice and nod in agreement, “Okay. Baby Obedient.”
Ji Mo Ya was speechless, seeing the kid being extremely obedient towards Huan Qing Yan. This was only the first day of him meeting his mother and the position of this dad has dropped three thousand feet under!
“Ji Mo Ya, can you tell me what are the ingredients for the medicinal bath?”
“Okay. The baby needs to soak in the medicinal bath twice. The first time requires over thirty ingredients and soaked for 30 minutes. The second time requires a hundred ingredients, and be soaked in it for an hour. The ingredients for the first time are…”
The baby started feeling sleepy during Ji Mo Ya’s explanation, the kid leaned against the bathtub and slept before he was finished with soaking.
Seeing that fair chubby face with long and thick eyelashes resembling miniature fans, he looked adorable and lovely.
Huan Qing Yan’s heart bloomed with happiness as she looked at her baby.
