My baby is two and a half years old. Daddy, hurry up and make some milk!

The chubby boy, after getting vaccinated and returning home, completely embodied the behavior of a little emperor.

She first called each child in turn to tell them about her brave act of getting vaccinated that day, and didn't forget to laugh at the children who were crying their eyes out.

Amidst everyone's praise, the little guy gradually lost himself, feeling incredibly brave.

Lu Chenyue and Tang Wanning were busy with work, so Lu Jianguo took the little guy and Lu Shulang to the Gao family to visit Old Man Gao.

Ever since he caught a cold, Old Gao's health has been unstable, sometimes better and sometimes worse.

"Baby, do you remember Grandpa Gao? The one who went fishing with Grandpa, and who even held you in his arms."

Le Bao tilted his head and thought for a moment, then nodded as if he vaguely remembered something.

"Grandpa Gao is sick. Let's go see him and hope he recovers soon."

Lu Jianguo led Le Bao, Le Bao led Lu Shulang, and their dog son Xiao Ai followed behind. The three of them and the dog slowly made their way to the Gao family's house.

On the way, Le Bao saw some wildflowers by the roadside and insisted on picking them. Seeing that his sister liked them, Lu Shulang also picked some.

After walking and stopping frequently, half an hour had passed by the time we arrived at the Gao family's house.

Gao Dongdong was very happy to see Le Bao; he hadn't seen his little sister in a long time.

"Le Bao, will you come play with me?"

Le Bao encountered Dong Dong running towards him before she even reached the door.

"Let's play."

Le Bao nodded, completely forgetting why she had come there in the first place.

"Dongdong, where's your grandpa?"

Lu Jianguo asked Dongdong, who had run over.

"Grandpa is at home."

Several people came to visit Grandpa Gao, but Dongdong didn't recognize any of them and thought it wasn't fun, so he came out on his own. To his surprise, he saw Le Bao not far away, which made him extremely happy.

Dongdong led the three of them into the house, where Grandpa Gao was impatiently dealing with several visitors.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, Le Bao has brought her grandpa."

Lu Jianguo: Wasn't it me who brought Le Bao along?

Dongdong's shout interrupted their conversation. When Grandpa Gao saw who it was, his impatient expression instantly turned into a kind one.

"Le Bao, Shu Lang, you're here too."

Seeing that Grandpa Gao looked much thinner than last time, Le Bao ran up to him and gave him the flowers she had picked by the roadside.

"Grandpa, eat lots of food, get fat and healthy, that's good."

The little guy, with an innocent look on his face, urged Grandpa Gao to eat more and gain weight so that he could recover soon.

"Okay, okay, Grandpa will try to eat more at every meal so he can grow strong and healthy, and then he can hold Le Bao in the future."

Looking at the little boy, Mr. Gao was filled with relief and emotion. "Girls are so good," he thought. "Look at her, even after so long, she not only brings me flowers but also knows how to care for me."

"Old Lu."

When Lu Jianguo came in, the people sitting nearby immediately stood up to greet him.

The Gao family went into the military, and the Lu family went into politics; both retired from high positions, but their influence remains. Furthermore, the younger generations of both families are thriving in their respective fields, and no one dares to be complacent.

Lu Jianguo nodded, and the others tactfully left, giving them space.

"What happened to those other ones?"

"What else could they be doing? Trying to curry favor with me while I'm sick."

Grandpa Gao was thoroughly annoyed. He had already said that he was no longer involved in anything and just wanted to retire peacefully, but there were still some persistent people coming to him.

"If you ask me, you're being too lenient. Next time you come, just call it out. Why waste time dealing with that?"

Grandpa Gao sighed, "As people get older, they lose the fierceness and decisiveness they used to have."

"Let's not talk about that anymore. Le Bao has come all this way to our home, so I have to treat her well."

After saying that, he instructed the servants to bring over lots of snacks and fruits, so that the little guy could eat as much as he wanted, and pack up any leftovers to take home.

Gao Dongdong also brought out all his toys to let Le Bao play with.

"Grandpa, I got my shot! I'm so brave!"

"Brother, I'm so brave!"

The chubby boy recounted his experience of getting the injection to the Gao family grandfather and grandson, emphasizing once again his bravery.

"Wow, that's so brave! Did you cry?"

Grandpa Gao pinched the little girl's cheek and teased her with a smile.

"I didn't cry. It's the little one who cried."

Lu Jianguo: If I hadn't seen your eyes, which were swollen like peaches, when you came back, I almost would have believed what you said.

"Le Bao is really good. Even your brother Dong Dong cried when he got a shot."

Dongdong, who was just watching the drama unfold, never expected to get caught up in his own gossip.

"I definitely won't cry next time."

Having lost face in front of his little sister, Dongdong vowed that he would never cry next time he got a shot.

Old Master Gao snorted coldly, "Guess whether I believe you or not."

Le Bao, unfazed, climbed into Old Man Gao's lap and sat down, picking up a grape and asking him to peel it.

"Le Bao, come down, Grandpa will hold you."

Lu Jianguo was worried about Old Gao's health, and besides, his own little granddaughter was truly devoted.

"It's alright, I'm not so heavy that I can't carry her. Le Bao just likes Grandpa Gao, right?"

"Porridge."

Le Bao took a bite of the grape that Grandpa Gao had peeled, her little feet swinging leisurely.

While they were eating, Gao Dongdong suddenly dropped his toy and ran towards the door.

"Uncle."

A tall, dark-skinned man walked in.

The man was carrying a military green backpack and a bag in his hand. Gao Dongdong was hanging on his back, but he didn't seem to be struggling at all.

"Dad, I'm home."

"Ah Zhan".

The visitor was Gao Zhan, the youngest son of Old Gao, who had been serving in the army and was now a regimental commander at a young age.

He came back this time because his older brother said that their father was not in good health, so he took a vacation to come back and see his father.

The father and son hadn't seen each other for almost two years. When they met again, one was darker and the other was thinner. They both felt sorry for each other's changes.

"Uncle Lu, you're here too?"

"Ah Zhan looks more energetic. How long will he stay this time?"

Soldiers' leave is limited; they can't take as much leave as they want. In case of an emergency, one phone call is all it takes to get them back to their unit immediately, no matter what they're doing.

"This time I can stay for half a month."

"Good, good, you're back. Your father's health has improved a lot."

The saying "A mother worries when her son travels a thousand miles" applies equally to fathers.

"Wow."

Ever since Gao Zhan entered the room, Le Bao's eyes have never left him.

She had never seen such a dark-skinned person before, as if they had stepped out of a pile of charcoal.

Gao Zhan looked down and met Le Bao's round eyes.

"This is?"

"This is your brother Shen Yue's daughter, Le Bao."

Gao Zhan was incredulous upon hearing this.

"Brother Shen Yue got married? And his child is already so big?"

He thought that someone as cold and aloof as Lu Chenyue, who lacked any sense of romance, would have a hard time finding someone he liked. Who would have thought that Lu Chenyue's child was already so grown up?

"Ahem, well, I'm not married yet, but it'll be soon."

Lu Jianguo was a little embarrassed to say it.

"What? He's pregnant out of wedlock?"

Gao Zhan could hardly believe his ears. Shen Yue, who had always disciplined him since childhood, not only had a child, but was also pregnant out of wedlock. This was something he was never capable of doing.

"Why are you so startled? You've frightened Le Bao."

One second the old man was overjoyed at the return of his youngest son, the next he was disgusted with him.

As expected, a father's love is as overwhelming as a mountain, but it couldn't last more than two minutes.

"Uncle, would you like a hug?"

Le Bao found the person in front of him very strange. If it were a normal child, seeing Gao Zhan would either frighten them to tears or run far away.

But the chubby boy wasn't scared at all; instead, he wanted to get closer to take a look.

Gao Zhan looked at Le Bao, who was holding up her arms and wanted him to hold her, and then looked at Lu Jianguo incredulously.

"My baby is very brave."

Lu Jianguo was extremely pleased with himself.

"Come hug my nest."

The little guy's arms are tired from holding them up; he really has no sense of propriety.

Gao Zhan carefully picked up Le Bao, finding her incredibly soft and carrying a faint milky scent. He was used to being rough around the edges, and this was his first time handling such a tiny baby, leaving him momentarily at a loss.

Le Bao touched his face, looked at her own hands, and then put her little hands on his face. One was as black as charcoal, and the other was as white as snow. The visual impact was undeniably strong.

"It's so dark!"

After a while, the little guy let out a sigh.

The people standing nearby burst into laughter.

Gao Zhan: I know, you don't actually have to say it.
