Chapter 987 Novice Raising a Child

Shen Lu thought about it for a while and felt that without an heir, the country would be unstable.

It's a pity that Lu Xingye doesn't have any siblings. Otherwise, it would be great if she could choose a nephew like Shen Jidong to help her grandmother manage the Friendship Group.

"Grandma, we're still several years away from getting married. Isn't it too early to be thinking about this kind of thing?"

Even with her thick skin, Shen Lu felt a little embarrassed.

"Yes, you two can discuss these things and then have dinner. After dinner, you can go play."

Grandma Shen was also unwilling to interfere too much in her granddaughter's and future grandson-in-law's affairs.

Since she agreed to Shen Lu's engagement to Lu Xingye, it means that she approves of Lu Xingye's character.

His character is beyond question, and there's no need to say anything more.

"We're done eating." It was because the elderly people hadn't left that Shen Lu and Lu Xingye remained seated.

In reality, we've eaten and drunk almost everything we need.

On this day, the corn is at its tenderest. My second aunt's eldest brother had someone grind the corn into a paste and cook a pot of corn soup.

Drinking a bowl of this after a meal is so refreshing!

Shen Lu was already quite full.

Having attended so many banquets and visited countless restaurants, food didn't hold much appeal for Lu Xingye.

But he really liked this corn soup.

Lu Xingye served Shen Lu a bowl, and he drank two bowls himself.

Upon hearing the old lady's words, the two felt as if they had received a pardon and quickly left their seats.

"I'm stuffed, shall we go for a walk?" The roads in the village have been renovated, with cement roads covering every household, so there's no fear of getting too much mud on our hands.

With the road becoming easier to travel, you'll find that the village is full of beautiful scenery.

The people of Shenjia Village probably weren't poor in the past, so they rarely had any leisure time.

In a village, eight or nine out of ten households have a yard, with fences and various flowers and plants.

Just like in Uncle Shen's yard, there was a row of roses planted, blooming bright red.

Roses have already climbed all over the wall by the door.

Shen Lu and Lu Xingye were holding hands and almost walked out of the courtyard when Shen Jidong called them back.

"LuLu, Mr. Lu, can you do me a favor?"

Shen Jidong called out to the two of them, so Shen Lu and Lu Xingye had no choice but to stop.

"Are you two going for a walk after dinner?" Shen Jidong walked towards them, pushing the stroller.

Why bring out little Shen Zhuangzhuang at this time?

Shen Lu didn't understand.

"Yes, why did you bring the child out?" Shen Lu glanced at the child and saw little Shen Zhuangzhuang staring at her with his round eyes.

The stroller was adorned with brightly colored wind chime toys, which he held in his hand, making a crisp sound from time to time.

"Let's take him with us. He's woken up and doesn't want to watch us eat; he insists on coming out to play."

The main problem is that the child wants to see his mother whenever he sees her, which prevents Jenny from eating properly.

The food at today's feast tasted delicious and suited Jenny's taste perfectly. If I want Jenny to eat more, I'll just have to make do with the little one.

"The two of us are taking care of the baby?" Shen Lu pointed to herself and then to Lu Xingye.

Neither of us has any experience taking care of a child.

Shen Jidong smiled and said, "Zhuangzhuang can teach you how to use him first. Anyway, you'll be getting married and having children in a few years."

"What if he poops?" Shen Lu still didn't want to take care of the child.

They even looked at little Shen Zhuangzhuang with disdain.

Don't let his current angelic appearance fool you; he could turn into a devil in a second.

"Change his diaper when he poops; there are some under the stroller."

"Diapers, a thermos of hot water, and wet wipes."

"If you don't know how, just search for a video online and you'll know the steps."

"LuLu, Zhuangzhuang is in your care now. Your uncle is hungry, let's go get something to eat first."

Shen Lu: "..."

Seeing Shen Jidong run away in a hurry, Shen Lu looked at Lu Xingye and asked, "Don't you think Uncle was trying to shift the blame just now?"

"Hmm." Lu Xingye wasn't particularly interested in children.

No matter how cute the child is, it can't move him.

However, this is Uncle Shen's child, so if they are allowed to take him out, they really can only take this little third wheel with them.

Lu Xingye pushed the stroller, while Shen Lu walked beside him, occasionally playing with the child.

This child is not shy, or rather, very curious; he kept looking at the flowers and plants along the way.

Fortunately, it wasn't too hot today, and the sunlight wasn't too glaring.

Shen Lu took him to see the flowers and plants, and the child was very interested in them.

The calls of ducks in the fields and geese in the ponds can attract children.

However, after they had been wandering around for about ten minutes, little Shen Zhuangzhuang suddenly let out a sharp, explosive sound.

She started crying without warning.

Shen Lu hurriedly picked up the baby and tried to soothe him.

Her posture wasn't quite right either, mainly because the baby was too young and she didn't know how to soothe him.

Lu Xingye frowned: "Are you hungry?"

Shen Lu shook her head: "No, my uncle and the others should have fed the child before they came out."

"So that means he pooped?" Lu Xingye's expression changed slightly.

Shen Lu was so frightened that she quickly put the child back in the stroller.

"What should I do? I don't know how to change diapers." It's all my uncle's fault for jinxing me. If he hadn't said to change the diaper when it pooped, Zhuangzhuang might still not know how to poop.

But it seems normal for the little one to poop after feeding.

"Don't cry, don't cry. Let me search online for how to change a diaper."

Shen Lu took out her phone and started searching.

Lu Xingye then unbuttoned Zhuangzhuang's jumpsuit.

After it was torn open, a foul odor wafted out.

"It really is a disaster." His expression was as solemn as if he were about to sign a contract worth hundreds of millions.

"Then I'll watch the video, explain the steps, and you can do it?" Shen Lu seemed even more disgusted with this little brat who pooped than Lu Xingye.

Lu Xingye could tell too, so he had no choice but to agree: "Okay."

Shen Lu prepared wet wipes and warm water.

Lu Xingye took off the diaper, and the child's legs moved a little, but Shen Lu held him down.

Lu Xingye poured warm water onto the wet wipes, the temperature was just right, and he watched carefully as Zhuangzhuang wiped his bottom.

It took several wet wipes to clean it.

After wiping the baby's bottom, Shen Lu reminded him not to forget to apply comfrey ointment to the baby.

"This seems to be for preventing diaper rash."

Shen Lu saw this as the procedure online.

Lu Xingye did as instructed.

Then it's time to put on a new diaper.

The two spent a long time learning from the video, and finally managed to put a diaper on the baby.

As for the soiled diaper, Lu Xingye had already put it in a small trash bag.

It must be admitted that Uncle Shen and his team were very well prepared.

It was quite a rare scene that Lu Xingye personally changed Shen Zhuangzhuang's diaper, and Shen Lu captured it on camera.

"How do you feel about changing someone else's diaper for the first time, and it's not for your own child?"

Shen Lu showed the recorded video to Lu Xingye.

Especially after he finished changing, little Shen Zhuangzhuang actually smiled at him, and that smile was so sweet it warmed his heart.
