Suddenly one more person came to the family. This kind of thing seems to be quite common for my family. To use Lin Xue's words, it means getting used to some unscrupulous guy going to the house every now and then. Saeko and Mercury Lamp both expressed a lot of pressure to pick up a younger sister and daughter at home. But this time, the extra members of the family seemed to be too important. Even the family members who were used to it felt incredible when facing Xiaoxue.
This should not only be because of Xiaoxue's miraculous time-traveling origin, but more importantly, her unique identity: among the group of daughters in the family, the only one who is truly related to the guardian by blood.
This caused some not-so-honest little girls to start complaining about the embarrassing situation between Lin Xue and me, such as Lilina.
Her research topic is how a young couple who have never had sex in bed suddenly enters the standard parental role and learns to take care of their daughter. And how should you handle your relationship. If this research project can really be completed, I think Lilina can at least apply for an ethics award.
Little Bubble seemed happier. Although she couldn't say it, I was her father anyway, and there was a mother who could translate Little Bubble's language in real time, so it was easy to understand the little girl's current thoughts. She understood her role as an older sister, and welcomed her future sister, which made her feel like a pretty big guy—a grown-up who could eat three cakes at a meal.
Thinking of this, I always find it very interesting, because strictly speaking, Little Pao Pao was the first to appear among her daughters. Judging from her "birthday" in the first family, she is the eldest sister of course. But this little girl's intellectual development is too gradual, even so unhurried that I sometimes think there is something wrong with the little guy's head. She is three years old and still can't speak a few complete sentences. This is said to be a problem with language module defects. But at the same time, she can assemble a production line for manufacturing spaceships with her eyes closed. To her, this is as simple and enjoyable as building a small house with building blocks. At the same time, she still retains all the good qualities that every three-year-old girl should possess , including smearing rice grains on her face when eating, crying when she wants something but can't say it, and biting any new gadget she can see and put in her mouth, all these characteristics keep her at home. Being treated as the youngest child, even Xiao Qijing, who is not yet one year old, can pat Little Bubbles on the head and pretend to be a little adult. This is really a tragedy.
Not to mention the Mercury Lamp that was totally a big kid when it came to the house.
But it's fine now. Finally, there was a guy who could seriously call her sister.
Xiaoxue is an eccentric child, no matter what other advantage she has is that she is very sensible, no matter which timeline she is currently in, she feels that she should treat Little Pao Pao as her older sister, after all, in the period of history when she was born, "Pao Pao "Elder Sister" is the elder sister who played with her since she was a child and has always been very kind to herself, even though this elder sister was shorter than herself after Xiaoxue was six years old...
Today is the second day Xiaoxue came to this house. The first family, who have honed their tenacious resilience in various miraculous events all day long, continued to go about their daily lives step by step. Although we have one more person. Xiaoxue openly occupied an empty room on the second floor next to my room. She said that until the years after she was born, her family still lived in this big house, and her room was in her father’s room. beside. At "that time", the city outside had changed, but this big house was moved into the Shadow City intact, which shows that maybe my sister and I are very nostalgic people in our bones.
It seems that there is just a strange girl with more energy, except for her origin. Xiaoxue is actually exactly like a normal girl. At first I thought her arrival would overturn everything, but in the end I found out that she didn’t intend and couldn’t affect the course of history. What we are going through is not in her memory, but In order to avoid some unpredictable troubles, she doesn't seem to have any intention of exchanging future information with us—of course, neither does the others. I sat on the wicker chair concentrating on playing chess with Uncle Kenser. While looking up at Little Bubbles, Lilina, and a large group of Rose Maidens who were fighting in the living room, like every nervous parent watching their children every five seconds while reading a newspaper, Lin Xue said nothing. Wrong, dad is born, there is a kind of person, when there is a loli next to him, he can always find a feeding bottle and a lollipop from his body, either he blames the uncle or the dad.
But obviously, Miss Lin who corresponds to me has not yet awakened to become a nanny.
Out of habit, Xiaoxue often greets Lin Xue very naturally: "Mom, show me how to do this!" "Mom! What are you eating for lunch?" "Mom, I want to watch TV!"
Of course, every time she yelled that, Lin Xue, who was still an older child, would always look around innocently and embarrassingly, and then clumsily communicate with her daughter who fell from the sky, while most of the people around her were doing it unscrupulously. Onlookers, as for the culprit who caused all this, they just stick out their tongues to express that they accidentally forgot that they are already in another timeline, and then continue to do what they should do.
I'm very glad that Xiaoxue is not at the age of breastfeeding, otherwise, apart from Sister Bing who can provide some psychological comfort with props, there is really no one in the family who can satisfy her request.
In Xiaoxue's eyes, there is no difference between the current Lin Xue and the future Lin Xue, and a little time issue is obviously not enough to turn our young and beautiful Prophet Miss into an aunt who is basically the same in length, width and height. After a long enough future, you should often see this scene in the streets and alleys of the empire's territory: several young people who look like brothers and sisters are walking side by side, basically covering more than ten generations of grandparents and grandchildren from left to right...
Thank you for the vastness and infinite world of the universe, and of course the most important thing is to thank the convenient interstellar colonization technology, otherwise the life quota system and the life renunciation bill together will definitely not be able to solve the population problem, even if the fertility rate of higher civilizations is lower.
"It's your turn." I turned my attention away from Xiaoxue, and looked down at the chessboard in front of me. It doesn't take much skill to play chess with Uncle Kenser on the opposite side, even though he has a long lifespan, despite his dignified appearance , even though he is regarded as the god of creation or the god of light in the seven worlds, even though he knows four ways to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes. But all of these can't change the fact that he is a bad chess basket. I lost my mind for 30 seconds with every step, and the result is that I have won six games in a row so far.
"Very good, very good." Kenser glanced at the chessboard and nodded slightly, "You won again."
Well, now it’s a seven-game winning streak, but I don’t have much sense of accomplishment. A feeling of being overwhelmed by the heights slowly spreads. Maybe I shouldn’t play chess with a stinky chess basket. This can only make people sigh invincible the loneliness. But no one in the family is willing to play with these chess pieces with him, even the mercury lamp.
The main reason is that everyone thinks backgammon is really a naive game.
Speaking of the mercury lamp, where did that little girl go
I threw down the chess piece and looked around, but I didn't see the little gothic girl in my field of vision, and her sisters were fighting for the TV with Little Paopao. Usually at this time, Mercury Lamp came down early to join in the fight with a group of little girls.
I got up to look for the little puppet, but I couldn't find it on the first floor, and there was no one on the second floor. Just when I was about to ask if anyone else saw where the mercury lamp went. A black feather suddenly fluttered down from the window at the end of the corridor on the second floor. Looking up from the window, I saw a pair of little feet wearing princess shoes dangling outside the guardrail above.
This big house is actually divided into three floors. The first floor is a place for family activities, meals, and guest rooms. The second floor is everyone’s room. The third floor has not been used much. Qianqian always has some weird ideas. The accompanying product is that she will get a lot of collections of unknown meaning from many equally strange places, including the tentacles replaced by the Octopus people and the stone ball bread baked by the Gongguke people with sand and mud. These are messy After she got tired of playing with the things, they piled them up on the third floor. An Weina went up to clean them up every week on average, and except for the little ghost maid and Qianqian herself, the rest of the family rarely went to the third floor. .
I made my way through a tangle of suspicious objects, save for a few load-bearing uprights. There is no partition wall on the third floor, it looks like a warehouse here, only we can transform such a weird house structure, and the little Rozen Maiden is sitting on a small balcony protruding from the wall at the end of the warehouse, open-air The balcony extends less than one meter from the ground, and there is only a half-person-high metal guardrail around the edge. The 92.3cm Gothic girl sits on the guardrail, hugging the metal pillar next to her and looking into the distance, her calves dangling in the air Go, keep kicking iron slag on the grass downstairs—well, it seems that this inconspicuous place was forgotten when the house was remodeled. The guardrail here is still iron and rusty.
I approached from behind, and suddenly pressed the little doll's head: "What are you doing here, don't you like warehouses?"
Originally, I wanted to scare her, but I obviously underestimated Mercury Lamp's vigilance to the outside world and familiarity with my breath. Mercury Lamp was not startled at all, but just shook his head lazily: "I don't like this environment, there are so many abandoned people. Things are piled together, it sucks."
"In a bad mood?" I tried to hug the little guy to my shoulder, but the latter twisted his body stubbornly to avoid my arm: "It's nothing wrong, I just want to find a quiet place."
I look at the warehouse behind me that has been collected by Qianqian and dotted with rags from various worlds like a garbage dump in the south of the city. There are hideous and weird waste from other worlds piled up together, and many of them have been modified by Qianqian's favorite graffiti. I think that in this kind of place, apart from poets, only artists remain. To be honest, this kind of environment is definitely not a good place to relax, especially for Mercury Lamp: she is not afraid of the dark, dirty, and the dead, but she hates the garbage dump, and of course all kinds of waste recycling stations. It is related to the environment when she was born, and it will be difficult to change in the future. But in this case, she still wants to live alone in the warehouse on the third floor. Who would believe her when she said that she was in a good mood.
"Why don't you go play with your sisters? Aren't you very happy two days ago?" I hugged the mercury lamp from the railing again, this time the other party didn't struggle, and I slapped the girl's butt off The rust stained on the body: This child, running around is not too dirty, it is possible to evolve into a bear child, "Little Bubble is so happy, finally there is someone who can call her sister, don't you feel the same Are you happy?"
The little puppet immediately opened its glasses and looked at this side. Want to say something but hesitate to speak. In the end, she turned her face away awkwardly: "What does that have to do with me, anyway, it's your biological daughter..."
Sure enough, I knew that the only reason for this little guy's awkwardness was Xiaoxue.
I smiled, and held the mercury lamp in front of me, holding it high, as if holding an insignificant work of art and slowly admiring it in the sun. The little doll has an instinctive resistance to holding it high. It may be that she thinks it will make her look quite shameless, but this time, the little guy was very quiet, and just squeezed my wrist symbolically. I put her on my shoulder and asked with a smile: "Yes? It's not because I'm afraid I don't want you anymore."
"No," Mercury Lamp seemed to hesitate for a moment, then grabbed my hair. "I'm not that stupid."
"That is to worry that the family members will not care about you slowly. And Lin Xue and I will focus on our real biological daughter. Well, you feel that you are going to become Cinderella."
The time of Mercury Lamp's silence this time was obvious, and it took a few seconds before it muttered: "What does that have to do with me, that's your own business. I... I just..."
"Tell me, what about you?" I tilted my head and reached out to pinch the little doll's cheek, "What do you think you are at home?"
"It's annoying! It's annoying! I don't know! Why are you talking so much! Why are you talking so much! Why are you talking so much!"
"By the way, when can you call me dad?" I sighed leisurely. It's easy to imagine where this little guy is struggling. It's nothing more than worrying about being helpless again. She has been abandoned once, and it's the kind that is unforgettable, and then because of a series of misunderstandings, she is given to "Zhenhong" "Betrayal" once, and it is unforgettable twice in a row, it is easy to make the lack of heart into an anti-human mentality. Anyway, this leads to a more sensitive heart than anyone else under the cold shell of the little doll. She doesn't like contact with strangers, she doesn't want to show too much emotion, and she's not interested in participating in any "troublesome activities". A possible injury, but after being together for such a long time, the family has melted her shell, and Mercury Lamp has become an ordinary child who can get along well with her family. It's a matter of character.
But this time, Chen Xiaoxue's appearance probably made her feel a sense of crisis again.
Even though he doesn't say it, Xiaodeng still knows his vague position in the family. A child, an ordinary child who is loved by adults, has a father who doesn't know if he is a father, and many others. I don't know if I can call my mother, everyone calls her "Girl" or "Little Lamp". Countless people in Shadow City are used to calling her Your Highness Princess when they see her. Later, she was not used to it and refused to accept it, and now she acquiesces, which has made this little puppet subconsciously confirm her identity as "daughter", but Xiaoxue's special existence really makes her feel dangerous.
But judging from her performance, this girl has not been entangled to the extent of worrying about being thrown away, but she just feels that Xiaoxue is here, and I am afraid that the child she picked up will turn into a Cinderella from a little princess. Maybe I should suspect that I really might have some problems in education. Thinking back then, Chairman Shui, who was so icy and smart, really let himself be trained into a childish temper.
Mercury Lamp also made me very embarrassed by a single sentence. No matter how she acquiesces to the current situation, she still won't let go of her mouth, let alone calling her Dad. Until now, this girl hasn't called the two "stupid" in front of my name. "Remove it, so the little guy reached out and grabbed my hair and pulled it violently: "What are you talking about! What are you talking about! What are you talking about!"
Then there was another flurry of chickens and dogs jumping, and the mercury lamp fell all over the place. After a few minutes, the weather was calm, and I found that the cloudy face of this little puppet had turned cloudy: this is what I have summed up for a while. The method of counseling is to fight, which is much more effective than talking, and she will be honest when she is tired.
"Okay," I poked at the clockwork on the back of the little puppet that was panting on my arm, making the latter itch, "Silly girl, Xiaoxue called you Miss Deng when we first met, you Don't even think about it, can the relationship between you two be alienated in the future?"
Mercury Lamp's face suddenly became weird, and he looked up at the sky and the earth and thought for a long time, then suddenly became exasperated: "Why didn't you remind me earlier!"
I:"… "
I didn't know that this silly girl really didn't think of this from the beginning!
"I don't care, anyway, you have to be responsible," the little puppet finally seemed to be in a bright mood, and took the initiative to climb to the queen's throne on my shoulders, and pulled the "adoptive father"'s hair, and said in a very arrogant tone, "This is what you said , you can't leave me behind, you can't ignore me, you have to treat me equally, or... or I will run away from home!"
I thought about it, but I couldn't understand: "Where are you going? Is it the king's land in the world? No matter how far you run, it's from the south room to the north room..."
"You're cheating!" The puppet girl was furious, "Did you listen to me carefully!"
"Okay, okay, who told me to be your father?"
The puppet girl was silent for a while, she seemed to be struggling for a long time, and then pinched my ear and said hesitantly: "Then what, this... I will decide when to call you according to my mood later... Let's go."
This time it was his turn to express surprise.
But before I could continue teasing the little puppet, who was about to become angry from embarrassment, Qianqian shouted suddenly from the second floor: "Ah Jun! Ah Jun! There are guests! Big guests!"
