After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

As the only son born to the only son in the family, Pearl is undoubtedly the most beloved child in the family.

Lin Er asked suspiciously, "Why is Prince Cheng here?"

Lin Zhishan truthfully replied, "I don't know."

"So what if they're here? They brought Pearl along, so they're probably out having fun. Nian-ge might be here too. Let's invite them over for dinner tonight," Xia Ying said.

"Even the Emperor of Yanru has gone back, why isn't he going back?" Lin Er said. "Does he still have the mind to come out and have fun?"

Xia Ying said, "Why are you so nosy? His Majesty hasn't said anything. Maybe the border is peaceful right now and he doesn't need to go back."

Lin Er thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he naturally sat down next to his husband and casually took two gold ingots for Pearl to play with.

On the deck, Lin Nian listened to Si Zhaozhao tell the story of the Titanic incessantly.

The two were still marveling at their beautiful love story when they saw Lan Shu suddenly jump over the railing and rush into the river.

Si Zhaozhao: "Ahhh! Lan Shu, what are you doing?! Don't do anything rash! Help! Help! Hey you! Help me!"

Seeing Lan Shu's figure skim across the water, Lin Nian knew he was aware of the situation, so she quickly covered Si Zhaozhao's mouth, saying, "Don't worry, Lan Shu is very capable."

Just then, a red ribbon flew over and tied to the mast. Lan Shu flew back from the water, holding a swaddled baby in her arms.

He tucked the red silk into his sleeve, making it completely invisible.

Unable to contain her excitement, Si Zhaozhao removed Lin Nian's hand and exclaimed, "Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! What is this?! I'm asking you, what is this?! Is this the light-footed skill of walking on water?! Dude, how many more surprises do you have up your sleeve that I don't know about?!"

Not only was Si Zhaozhao shocked, but everyone playing on the deck was also shocked. At this moment, they all looked at Lan Shu with the eyes of someone looking at a great hero.

"This young man is quite skilled!" exclaimed a martial artist.

Lan Shu calmly replied, "It's nothing."

Lin Nian quickly walked up to Lan Shu and said, "Oh dear, it's a child."

Lan Shu nodded, revealing an infant in the swaddling clothes. "It must have been abandoned."

Upon hearing this, everyone condemned the child's father for being irresponsible.

At this moment, one of the husbands stamped his foot and exclaimed, "Oh dear, what a terrible thing to do! Putting the child in the water like that, isn't that deliberately trying to kill him?"

"Perhaps the child's father has some difficulties?"

"If there was a reason, you shouldn't have given birth in the first place. It's not like you can't afford a bowl of medicine to induce abortion. This child is already a month old; abandoning it now is no different from murder!"

"Please don't panic. What if this child was kidnapped by human traffickers? Maybe the father is very worried."

"That makes sense. It would be safer to report it to the authorities first."

"Are you kidding me? We're on a ship right now. Look at all these mountains and valleys around us. Where would we find any official intelligence?"

"..."

Before Yin Cheng even got close, he heard a commotion on the deck, though he couldn't tell what they were arguing about.

In the crowd, Lan Shu was holding a child in his arms.

Yin Cheng blinked, and after confirming he wasn't seeing things, he asked in shock, "When did you have a child?"

Lan Shu rolled her eyes. "Where's your brain?"

Si Zhaozhao didn't miss the chance to mock her, immediately retorting, "Exactly, where's your brain?"

Yin Cheng glanced at Si Zhaozhao.

Si Zhaozhao immediately hid timidly behind Lan Shu.

"Where did this come from?" Yin Cheng stepped forward and saw that the baby in the swaddling clothes had a clear "Fu" mark on his forehead, and it was a little boy.

"I picked it up from the water," Lan Shu said.

Yin Cheng asked instinctively, "Did your family lose it?"

Lan Shu shrugged. "I don't know. The baby is only a month old, and there's no milk on this boat. I don't even know if the child will survive."

"Milk?" Yin Cheng froze. "Human...milk?"

Lan Shu wanted to roll her eyes again. "That shouldn't be the case. He's a father himself, doesn't he understand?"

Yin Cheng felt a little guilty and stood silently behind Lin Nian.

Lin Nian said, "First, ask if there's any milk on board. If that's not possible..."

Yin Cheng chimed in, "Just throw it away?"

Lin Nian slapped the man and said, "I can only feed him rice cereal now."

There were no husbands on board to nurse the animals, so the husbands were powerless to help.

Lan Shu, being an unmarried young man, certainly had little experience in taking care of children.

Lin Nian took the initiative to take over the responsibility, saying, "Leave the child to me; I have experience."

When Lan Shu handed the swaddled baby to Lin Nian, she suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a letter tucked inside the baby's swaddle.

He pulled it out and couldn't help but sneer.

Si Zhaozhao quickly went over and asked, "What happened? What happened... Oh dear, this child has been abandoned by his family."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding husbands stomped their feet and cursed angrily, "This family is truly despicable."

"The child's face is all red; I wonder if he's sick," Lin Nian said. "Ah Cheng, go find a doctor to take a look at the child."

"understood."

Lin Nian suddenly grabbed him, "Where's Pearl?"

"Oh, right, the second brother is on this boat too. Pearl is playing with them right now."

Lin Nian asked in surprise, "What? Second Brother is here too? I didn't hear that they were going on a long trip."

"They said they were taking Zhishan to become an apprentice."

"I understand." Lin Nian carried the swaddled baby towards the room. "Don't just stand there, go and fetch a doctor."

There was only one old doctor on the ship, who had good medical ethics. Hearing that the boy was an abandoned man, he quickly brought his medicine box to treat him.

The child hasn't cried since he was found, and his eyes are tightly closed. Only his weak breathing and shallow rise and fall of his chest prove that he is still alive.

"He has a slight fever. I'll go brew the medicine now. Send someone to the kitchen to collect it in an hour." The old doctor examined him and said, "Make sure he doesn't catch a chill tonight, and he should be fine."

When Si Zhaozhao saw the old doctor off, she kept thanking him and even gave him some of her own savings.

After seeing the doctor off, Lan Shu and Si Zhaozhao chatted by the door.

Lan Shu was surprised, "Your Highness can just pay for it, why are you spending your own money? We still need to go shopping when we get to Ningzhou."

Si Zhaozhao said, "It's about getting on good terms with the doctor. It's been half a month. If I get sick, that 'choking monster' definitely won't be willing to spend money to treat me."

Lan Shu suppressed a laugh, "It's alright, as long as my lord is willing."

Si Zhaozhao immediately smiled and said, "Oh, right."

Inside the room, Lin Nian was preparing to wipe the child's body. "A-Cheng, go and fetch a basin of hot water."

Yin Cheng, carrying a basin of water in one hand, passed between Si Zhaozhao and Lan Shu, who were chatting at the door.

Si Zhaozhao watched Yin Cheng's retreating figure and sighed, "He's so obedient."

Lan Shu said, "So, pleasing only the lord is enough. As for His Highness..."

Although Lan Shu didn't finish speaking, Si Zhaozhao still understood!

My lord is beautiful on his own! Your Highness, please do as you please.
