Chapter 663: Pain Chapter 663: Pain Editor: Atlas Studios When Qi Haoran carried the child out, his expression was slightly dark.
It was only when he saw Mu Yangling not far away that he restrained the gloominess on his face and carried Little Bear over with a smile.
Walking behind him with a dark glint in his eyes, Fan Zijin was about to say something when he saw Mu Yangling hugging Little Bear and kissing his face.
The rare tenderness on her face made Fan Zijin suppress his thoughts.
In the end, he didnât say anything.
âWhat did you say to the abbot that took so long?â Mu Yangling asked.
âNothing much.
I just asked for a few safety talismans.â Qi Haoran handed the safety talismans to Mu Yangling.
Mu Yangling said in surprise, âYou believe in this?
Iâll get a maidservant to make a few pouches and hang them up later.â Qi Haoran pouted and said, âCan you delegate such tasks to a maidservant?
Make it yourself.â Mu Yangling put away the safety talisman and said, âAs long as you donât mind it being ugly, Iâll do it.â Only then was Qi Haoran satisfied.
He raised his chin reluctantly and said, âI donât care if itâs ugly.
After all, I chose to marry you.â Qi Haoran looked at Little Bear and sighed slightly.
If it was difficult, so be it.
After all, he was his father.
No matter how difficult it was, he had to find a doctor to treat his illness.
However, when he saw his lively and active son, Qi Haoranâs heart ached.
Even if his son wasnât a dragon among men, he couldnât fare too badly.
How could he not even know how to speak?
Seeing that Qi Haoranâs eyes were slightly wet, Fan Zijin sighed in his heart and stepped forward to block him slightly.
He said to Little Madam Xia, âGo take a walk in the temple with Sister-in-law.
Cousin and I will stroll around nearby.â Little Madam Xia bowed slightly and went forward to hold Mu Yanglingâs hand.
She said with a smile, âAh Ling, accompany me to the back of the mountain, will you?
Little Bear, are you willing to play with Auntie?â Little Bear responded with a babbling sound and ran towards the back of the mountain while holding the hands of the two adults.
Mu Yangling turned around and glanced at Qi Haoran.
She suddenly felt a little sour and uneasy, and she couldnât help but exert more strength on the hand that was holding Little Bear.
When Fan Zijin saw that they had left, he patted Qi Haoranâs shoulder and said, âAlright, since you donât want her to know, keep away the tears in your eyes.
Didnât Master Hui Qing also say that the child is probably just learning to speak at a slightly later age?
Tell Eldest Cousin about it later.
Weâll find a doctor whoâs good at treating children.â Qi Haoran lowered his eyes.
âIf we donât even know what illness it is, how can we treat it?â Fan Zijin was furious.
âWhy are you so certain that Little Bear is sick?â âAh Ling said that Little Bear called her âMotherâ before.
Itâs been more than a year, but he hasnât spoken again.â Qi Haoran vaguely believed that Little Bear had become like this after suffering a fright.
Hui Qing also said that there was nothing wrong with Little Bearâs voice, and Imperial Physician Wang couldnât find anything wrong with him either.
He had observed more than once that when he taught his son to speak, the kid would always open his mouth and try to learn, but he would always not be able to make any syllables.
That was why he would say something that they did not understand.
It seemed like he was complaining or angry.
Qi Haoran did not know that in the future, there would be children who would have mental disorders after being traumatized.
However, his thoughts matched exactly that.
But did Little Bear really have a psychological barrier because heâd suffered a fright back then?
Because medical technology was limited currently, no one could give an answer.
Mu Yangling sat on the stone bench and looked at Little Bear, who was squatting on the ground and occasionally catching one or two green insects from the grass at the side to show off.
She forced a smile.
Little Madam Xia patted her hand and asked gently, âWhatâs wrong?â Mu Yangling shook her head slightly and lowered her eyes without saying anything.
Although Qi Haoran and Fan Zijin did not say anything, the three of them had grown up together.
Putting aside Fan Zijin, she knew what Qi Haoran was thinking based on his behavior.
When he came out, the expression on his face was not right.
In fact, his eyes were even filled with tears.
Qi Haoran had always prided himself on being manly.
What could possibly make someone like that cry?
The only two times were because of her.
However, they were now husband and wife and got along harmoniously.
Just now, only Fan Zijin and Little Bear were inside with him.
If it was because of Fan Zijinâs health problems, Fan Zijin would not have that expression.
Thus, it must be about Little Bear.
What was wrong with Little Bear?
Looking at her son, who was yanking at grass and picking flowers everywhere and being annoyingly active, it was clear that his body was as strong as an ox.
The only problem was that he could not speak.
He did not know how to speak!
Mu Yanglingâs heart tightened.
Little Treasure was a smart child, so there was no need to compare with him.
In order to understand the growth of a child more accurately, Mu Yangling had once sent a subordinate to do a questionnaire.
Combined with what the imperial physician said, the conclusion was that a child could usually call âFather, Motherâ when they turned six to seven months old.
When they turned about one year old, they would speak simple words.
At two years old, their language would be rich to a certain extent and they could express their thoughts coherentlyââŹÂŚ Back then, when Little Bear called her âMotherâ, he was more than seven months old.
After that, he didnât really speak anymore.
Mu Yangling had always felt that her son was just slow in learning languages.
He was lively, cheerful, smart, and good at fighting.
He could cry and make a fuss.
Given all that, it didnât matter even if he learned to speak later.
However, from the looks of it, that didnât seem to be the case.
At present, Little Bear was already two years oldââŹÂŚ Mu Yangling felt her heart ache.
However, when she saw Qi Haoran coming over to pick them up with a smile, Mu Yangling couldnât say anything she wanted to ask previously.
She stood quietly beside Qi Haoran and watched as he placed his son on his neck.
âLetâs go eat vegetarian food then head down the mountain to rest.â Mu Yangling nodded slightly and felt that it was better to leave the question until they got home.
When they went down the mountain, everyone was a little silent.
By the time they returned to the courtyard, they were no longer in the mood to play.
Mu Yangling coaxed Little Bear to sleep before asking Qi Haoran bluntly, âIs there a problem with Little Bear?â Qi Haoran was stunned.
Seeing that he still couldnât hide it from Mu Yangling, he could only say, âAbbot Huiqing couldnât find out either.
I asked Imperial Physician Wang to take a look.
He also said that thereâs nothing wrong with Little Bearâs throat.
Perhaps he just needs time.â âHe did call me âMotherâ before.
I thought that heâd cried out âMotherâ in a moment of fear.
Do you think itâs because he suffered a fright at that time?
But at that time, the doctor said that Little Treasure was, in fact, more greatly frightened.
Also, Little Bear only had nightmares for two days before he became lively againââŹÂŚâ Seeing that Mu Yanglingâs eyes were filled with tears, Qi Haoran hurriedly hugged her and said, âMaybe not.
Perhaps our son just learns to speak later than other kids.
Iâll write a letter to Big Brother and ask him to find us a highly skilled physician.
On top of that, weâll teach him slowly.
Iâm sure everything will be fine.â Mu Yangling leaned into Qi Haoranâs arms and couldnât help but bite his clothes to stop the whimpering from escaping her mouth.
Tears streamed down her face.
Qi Haoranâs heart ached.
He looked at his son, who was sleeping with his limbs spread out on the bed, and pain flashed across his eyes.
Mu Yangling wiped her tears and straightened her back.
âLetâs find a local doctor ourselves.
Iâll go back and find a few more friends for our son to play with and slowly teach him how to speak.â
