The stupid son of Chongba

Chapter 3 This Chongba's surname is Zhu

Zhu Yuanzhang's back was throbbing from the heavy blow from his wife, but how could he care about his sore back at the moment?
"Baby, baby, you can call me mom now! That's great, that's great!"

Old Zhu half squatted down, grabbed Zhu Ju's wrist, and said hurriedly,
"Then call us and let us hear it. Come on, call us..."

Ma Xiuying has been waiting for the word "Mom" for so many years, and so have I.

For the sake of their own flesh and blood, Zhu Ju, the couple visited countless medical experts and endured countless tortures!

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Ju expectantly, with infinite hope in his heart. But Zhu Ju's wrist was hurt by his iron claw-like hand, and he couldn't help feeling a little unhappy, so he just said:
"Jungpachi."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

Ma Xiuying was wiping away tears of excitement, but when she heard these two words, she burst out laughing.

"You! You bastard!"

Old Zhu stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open, and said,

"You think you can call me Chongba? I'm your father! You have no respect for your parents!"

"Call me daddy! Hurry up, or I'll beat you up again!"

Seeing that his eyes were as big as cow's, and thinking of the beating he had just received, Zhu Ju couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"……father."

He silently said to himself that a wise man would not suffer a loss in front of him, and shouted reluctantly.

"Hey, hey!"

"Okay, okay, my son! May our ancestors bless you, may God bless you, you have finally come to your senses! Hahahaha..."

Hearing the word "Dad", Zhu Yuanzhang's anger turned into joy, his heart was filled with joy. He rubbed Zhu Ju's head hard a few times, grinning and laughing towards the sky.

"Be gentle! Don't crush my little orange again!"

Ma Xiuying was quick-witted and slapped Zhu Yuanzhang's claw away, and spat,
"The baby just woke up and needs to rest quietly, but you're just messing around!"

"My son has been unconscious for two nights. He must have had a seizure because he was extremely hungry. As a father, you don't know how to be considerate and you hit him! Why don't you go and get some snacks for my son!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang knew he was in the wrong, so he could only smile awkwardly and obey the order obediently.

When the Taoists at the door saw the emperor coming out with a smile on his face, they all knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.

Now that Zhu Ju is alive and much smarter, this should be a happy event, but His Majesty has always been moody, and it is still uncertain whether they live or die, so how can they dare to be careless?
"You, go get some snacks. The best on the mountain!"

Zhu Yuanzhang left the room, and he no longer wanted to be a servant. He immediately ordered,
"Also, arrange for someone to light a fire and cook. My husband and I will have a banquet to celebrate tonight!"

"Go!"

The thin Taoist priest got up from the ground, bowed his body, and nodded.

He waved his hand and led the Taoists to get up and get busy.

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a very good mood at the moment. He was holding his belt and was about to go back to his room to talk with his wife and children, but he saw a scholar coming hurriedly from a distance and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, there is a military report from the front!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a document was presented to him.

"It should have come earlier."

Zhu Yuanzhang's smile faded, he picked up the military newspaper and opened it, glanced at it for a few seconds, then nodded slightly and ordered,

"Go and serve the writing brush and ink. I have something to tell the general."

"According to the order."

The clerk respectfully withdrew. Zhu Yuanzhang glanced into the room and saw the mother and daughter acting intimately and passionately. He couldn't help but smile, raised his hand to twirl his beard, and went back to take care of state affairs.

……

inside the house.

Ma Xiuying held Zhu Ju's palm, sometimes touching his forehead, sometimes stroking his hair, with a smile on her face, looking like a loving mother.

Zhu Ju's parents divorced when he was young, and he was raised by his grandfather. How could he enjoy the love from his loving mother? At this moment, being looked at by Ma Xiuying, he felt a little uncomfortable.

"...Mom, can you please stop looking at me like that?" He couldn't help but say,

Ma Xiuying tilted her head slightly and said with a smile:
"No, I can't get enough of your lively appearance."

Zhu Ju: “…”

If it weren't for the identity of her "mother", he would have suspected that the other party was a pervert with special fetishes!

Fortunately, two Taoist children brought some fresh fruits and dried persimmons. Zhu Ju smelled the sweet fragrance and his stomach started to growl.

"Are you starving? Eat quickly."

Ma Xiuying peeled an orange, removed the white veins on the orange flesh, and put a petal to Zhu Ju's mouth, saying,

"Here, open your mouth."

Zhu Ju subconsciously opened his mouth and waited until the orange flesh was in his mouth before he started chewing.

The sweet orange juice bursting in his mouth made him enjoy it very much. But when he saw Ma Xiuying peeling the second orange flesh, Zhu Ju hurriedly said:
"No need, no need, mom, I can do it myself..."

He was used to being self-reliant, but now he felt uncomfortable with having nothing to offer him.

"Why are you being so polite to your mother? I have fed you countless times since you were little. I even cleaned up your shit and urine with my own hands."

Ma Xiuying ignored him, peeled the second petal and brought it to Zhu Ju's mouth, chuckling,
"Come on, ah—open your mouth."

Zhu Ju could only open his mouth obediently.

This is definitely the treatment that only the stupid son of a landlord can get! He thought to himself.

"If your condition hadn't worsened, I would have wanted to keep you by my side. They say you're stupid, but I don't care. Our Zhu family's fortune and kingdom belong to us. Are you afraid that you can't raise a child?"

"Besides, our little orange is very smart! Don't you think so?"

As Ma Xiuying spoke, she took out a handkerchief and gently wiped Zhu Ju's mouth.

After wiping it, she discovered that Zhu Ju was not drooling this time like before.

However, his gaze at this moment was slightly dazed.

"Mom, what did you just say?"

"Our Zhu family? Jiangshan?"

The country belongs to our Zhu family...

Chongba...

The surname is Zhu and his name is Chongba... Zhu Chongba? !
Even if Zhu Ju was a thick-skinned person, he came to his senses at this moment——

Did he travel back to the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty and become the son of Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying? !
At this moment, Zhu Ju's head was buzzing...

"Yes, our country is called Ming Dynasty, and your father is the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

Ma Xiuying was not surprised by Zhu Ju's reaction and said with a smile,
"As for me, your mother, I am the Empress of the Ming Dynasty."

"Now let me test you... What is your identity?"

Zhu Ju: “…”

Another stupid question like this!

He was a little helpless, but in order to match his current character of "a mentally retarded child who has just come to his senses", he could only answer:
"I am a prince!"

Snapped!
"That's right! How clever! Hahahaha..."

Ma Xiuying clapped her hands, her eyes curved, she was extremely happy!
When Zhu Ju saw her like this, a ripple appeared in his heart.

Just answering such a simple question can make this mother so happy.

She had taken care of this silly son for countless days and nights. It must have been very hard, right?
Subconsciously, Zhu Ju peeled an orange, broke off a slice and placed it in front of Ma Xiuying.

"Mom, the oranges are sweet, you can eat some too."
