Chapter 997 Long-Lost Relatives (Two-in-One Monthly Ticket Request)
Xiao Jiuxiang was very happy in the bathtub. He kept splashing water and played with himself. He also cooperated with Xia Chujian to give him a bath.
After tidying up Xiao Jiuxiang, Xia Chujian also took a bath, then went to bed and slept with the chubby Xiao Jiuxiang in his arms.
When I woke up, I saw that it was dark outside.
She sat up and just about to get out of bed, she heard a knock on the door and Yingying's excited shouts.
She opened the door, smiled and hugged Yingying.
Yingying said: "First time meeting! You are back! We are all worried to death!"
She couldn't go to Beichen Star right away because she had to take the college entrance examination. She was in a state of anxiety and hadn't paid much attention to the lectures these days.
Xia Chujian said: "Am I back now? Don't worry, by the way, I'm hungry and want to eat."
Yingying said: "My mother said you slept for seven hours! I saw you were sleeping soundly before, and I couldn't bear to call you."
Xia Chujian looked at the time and sighed, "It's been a long time since I had a good sleep..."
Jiuxiang also climbed out of bed at this time, staggered to Xia Chujian, and hugged her calf nervously.
Xia Chujian: "..."
She bent down, picked up the chubby child, and said to Yingying: "Yingying, come meet the new member of our family, Xia Jiuxiang!"
Yingying learned from Aunt Chen that Xia Chujian had brought another child back, and she was mentally prepared.
But she didn't expect that this child was so cute!
Moreover, there is an indescribable feeling of intimacy that is stronger than her feelings for Wufu.
She couldn't help but stretched out her hand and said, "Let me give you a hug, okay?"
Xia Chujian asked Jiuxiang: "...Do you want Sister Yingying to hold you? Sister Yingying is also our family."
Jiuxiang suddenly looked at Yingying with big eyes and slowly stretched out his hand towards her.
Yingying hugged him over, hugged him tightly, and said, "I hit it off with this kid. Could he really be my long-lost relative?"
Xia Chujian's eyes flashed slightly and he said with a smile: "How is that possible? I found him in the Alien Beast Forest. His family is gone..."
Yingying regretfully said: "It doesn't matter, we will treat him well in the future."
The two of them took Jiuxiang down for dinner.
In the restaurant downstairs, Xia Chujian and Jiuxiang shared a whole three-pound Phoenix-tailed Luanyouniao!
There was also a whole pot of soup and three large bowls of rice!
Seeing her like this, Aunt Chen felt distressed and said, "How long has it been since you had a good meal?"
After Aunt Chen finished speaking, she looked at the chubby kid with a somewhat speechless look.
She thought she knew why this child was so fat...
Xia Chujian is an adult, so it’s okay to eat more.
But this kid eats almost the same as Xia Chujian.
He and Xia Chujian almost shared the three-pound phoenix-tailed phoenix and bird, as well as a pot of soup and a large pot of rice.
Aunt Chen and Yingying only ate the vegetables and ordinary pork they usually eat.
After Xia Chujian finished eating, he said sheepishly: "Aunt Chen, Yingying, you all let us eat..."
Yingying smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. We can catch one whenever we want to eat. Unlike you, you have to return to the distant star if you want to eat."
Xia Chujian nodded in sympathy and said, "I want to graduate early and return to Yuanxing!"
Yingying said: "Why did you return to Far Star after graduating from college? There is no garrison here. Aren't you going to be the commander of a Star Destroyer?"
Xia Chujian: "..."
That’s right!
Aunt Chen changed the subject and said, "How old is Jiuxiang?"
Xia Chujian said: "About one and a half years old? Looking at his height, he is about the same age as Wufu at that time. But Wufu was already over two years old at that time."
Aunt Chen said: "Then why do you think he is one and a half years old, not more than two years old?"
Xia Chujian said: "Although he is relatively big, judging from his language development, he is only about one and a half years old."
Jiuxiang turned a deaf ear and continued to focus on drinking the soup.
The small soup bowl Xia Chujian gave him was indeed very small, so he drank one bowl after another.
It was Yingying who took care of him. When she saw that he had finished drinking, she asked him if he wanted to drink more.
Of course he said happily: "Yes!"
After he drank six bowls, Xia Chujian stopped: "...Stop drinking, Jiuxiang, your belly will burst if you drink any more."
Jiuxiang frowned a little unhappily and put down the soup bowl, which made Aunt Chen and Yingying feel distressed.
But looking at his bulging belly, neither of them could say anything to let him drink another bowl.
Xia Chujian said: "You drank so much today, but don't wet the bed. I want to put on diapers for you."
Aunt Chen hurriedly said: "I bought some diapers for Wufu before, but he didn't wear them much."
Xia Chujian said: "That's great, give it to Jiuxiang."
Yingying took Jiuxiang to change into diapers, Xia Chujian and Aunt Chen went to the living room to drink tea, and the housekeeping robot Beijia went to clear the dishes.
Xia Chujian saw the back of Beijiayi's busy cylindrical machine and said thoughtfully: "Beijiayi is quite easy to get along with? He's not as naughty as Liushun, right?"
Aunt Chen said with emotion: "I have never used a robot before, and I thought robots were just like Liushun."
"This time I used Bei Jiayi, and I realized that the robot is not like Liu Shun."
"This guy Liushun doesn't know what's going on."
Xia Chujian thought about it and said, "Liu Shun was given by Chief Quan. At that time, I remember buying the most expensive model of housework robot. It must be much more intelligent."
"Beijiayi is the cheapest housekeeping robot I have ever bought. It is definitely not as smart as Liushun."
Aunt Chen smiled and said, "So that's the case. But I think that a housework robot only needs to do housework, and it doesn't need to be too intelligent."
Xia Chujian agreed and said, "Yes! So I always think Liushun is too intelligent, and he can even be lazy and play tricks on people."
Aunt Chen took a sip of tea and said, "... a little bit, but Liushun is still the best at making tea."
Xia Chujian said, "Don't say this in front of Liushun, it will be proud."
Aunt Chen laughed so hard that she almost spit out a mouthful of tea.
Yingying brought Jiuxiang out of the restaurant and said, "Where will little Jiuxiang stay at night?"
Xia Chujian said, "Wufu's room is empty, let him stay in Wufu's room."
"Let Beijia take care of him in Wufu's room all night."
Yingying was reluctant to leave and said, "...why not stay in my room?"
Aunt Chen immediately objected and said, "You still have to review and do homework at night, how can Jiuxiang, such a young child, stay up late with you?"
Yingying had to give up this idea.
Jiuxiang came over, leaned against Xia Chujian, and yawned.
Xia Chujian said: "Jiuxiang, you feel sleepy when you are full, no wonder you have grown so much weight."
Jiuxiang didn't care at all, and nodded his head to Xia Chujian with a smile.
Xia Chujian picked him up.
Just then, Ning Sa's message finally came.
[Ning Sa]: Xia Chujian, I'm back. Does anyone want to apply for a certificate?
Only Ning Sa can do this kind of thing.
Xia Chujian was overjoyed and replied hurriedly.
[Xia Chujian]: Ms. Ning, it's so late, is it convenient for you?
[Ning Sa]: It's not inconvenient, I did it all. I can go back to Beichen Star earlier after I finish.
Xia Chujian also wanted to go back earlier.
[Xia Chujian]: That's right! Then I'll bring him here now?
Ning Sa sent her an address.
It was the commercial building where Xia Yuanfang's studio was.
Xia Chujian took Jiuxiang on the aircraft and flew directly to the building in the central business district of Mulan City.
She parked the aircraft on the terrace of Xia Yuanfang's studio, took Jiuxiang out of Xia Yuanfang's studio, and came to Ning Sa's office.
Ning Sa's office is dedicated to making identity documents for people.
Her identity document is a legal identity on Guiyuan Star, and of course it is also recognized by the Beichen Empire.
When Xia Chujian appeared in front of Ning Sa holding a chubby child, Ning Sa instantly had a good impression of the child.
The child she loved most was, of course, her own son Ning Zheng.
But when she saw this chubby child with honey-colored skin, the feeling that surged in her heart was no less than the love she had for her own son.
After careful perception, this child was not a humanoid, but a human.
She was a little surprised and said, "... Is this child you want to adopt?"
Xia Chujian nodded and said to Ning Sa, "I met this child in the Forest of Exotic Beasts. His parents were gone at the time, and he was the only child. If I didn't bring him out, he would die there sooner or later."
Ning Sa nodded sympathetically and said, "So that's how it is."
"I can make him an official identity, but I can't say that he was picked up in the Forest of Exotic Beasts."
Xia Chujian was curious: "Why can't I say that?"
Ning Sa said meaningfully: "The Forest of Exotic Beasts belongs to the royal family. Just tell me this news."
"But I can't write that on the official document."
Xia Chujian understood and said, "Then do whatever is convenient for you."
Ning Sa said, "It's easy to make identity documents for orphans."
"There are so many orphanages on Guiyuan Star. Just make an identity and keep it safe. No one will find out."
Xia Chujian's heart moved and said, "Can you change the time and say that my aunt adopted him half a year ago?"
She had told Aunt Chen before that Xia Yuanfang wanted to adopt him.
Now even the official identity documents are written like this, so Jiuxiang can be completely concealed.
As for Huo Yushen, she will go and plead with him not to mention it to the emperor.
Ning Sa thought about it and said, "That's fine. But the adoption documents must be signed by your aunt."
Xia Chujian said, "Anyway, the time can be changed, and the signature doesn't matter."
Ning Sa smiled and said, "You are young, and you know more about these things than your aunt."
Xia Chujian said, "I have been a night hunter, and I have seen and done more outrageous things than this."
Ning Sa put away her smile and sighed, "You two aunt and nephew, it's not easy."
After she got familiar with Xia Yuanfang, she also heard Xia Yuanfang talk about their previous lives, especially the three years when Xia Yuanfang was poisoned. Xia Chujian not only supported herself alone, but also got the medical expenses for Xia Yuanfang's hospitalization.
For a teenager who was only fourteen years old at the time, it was really not easy.
Xia Chujian shrugged nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's all over."
Ning Sa had a special liking for little Jiuxiang, so he took great pains to find him an orphan identity that was particularly suitable, and then got his ID.
Of course, the adoption date was changed to half a year ago. At that time, Xia Chujian had not yet gone on an interstellar adventure.
At least he could clear himself from Xia Chujian.
After the ID was completed, Xia Chujian read it carefully and found that Ning Sa was really talented...
Xia Chujian believed the story of his made-up background.
As a result, Ning Sa said: "This orphan identity is real."
"It's just that the child died half a year ago."
"But his ID is still there, just right for Jiuxiang."
"Although the names are different, the adoptive family must change the name when adopting, so this is not a loophole."
Xia Chujian looked at the photo of the child, and he really looked a bit like Jiuxiang, because they were both fat!
She said with emotion: "This orphanage is good for children, right? Look at this fat one..."
Ning Sa took a look and shook his head and said: "After all, it's an orphanage, how good can it be?"
"In fact, it's the food there that made him fat."
Xia Chujian looked at Jiuxiang, and he didn't look like fat no matter how you look at it.
His strong little arms were like lotus roots, and you could feel the toughness of the little meat when you pinched them.
Compared with the real photo of the orphan, they didn't look much alike.
But those were photos of a six or seven-month-old baby, which was very different from Jiuxiang's current appearance.
It's just that as long as the baby is fat, they look the same.
Not long after, Ning Sa finished the full set of documents and put them into the archives.
He only took out two of the adoption documents that needed Xia Yuanfang's signature, and said, "I will go to your aunt to sign in person, and take my Ning Zheng back by the way."
Xia Chujian hurriedly said, "Thank you very much. I will give Ning Zheng a small gift after I go back."
Ning Sa smiled and said, "You don't need to say such things. Your aunt has a lifetime of kindness to my Ning Zheng."
"If your aunt didn't disagree, I would have asked your aunt to adopt him as a godson!"
Xia Chujian smiled and said, "It's not that troublesome to be a godson! My aunt must treat Ning Zheng better than her own son!"
Ning Sa said, "How do you know?"
Xia Chujian pointed at herself and said, "You don't know how strict my aunt is to my niece!"
"Not as strict as the children of ordinary friends!"
Ning Sa said, "Your aunt really loves you, so she takes care of you. Of course, you know it, and I don't need to tell you."
Xia Chujian nodded, "Of course I know it."
After Jiuxiang's identity documents were ready, Xia Chujian asked Ning Sa to help take Jiuxiang back to Beichen Star first.
Because she had to stay here to contact the school, saying that she had just returned home from the Monster Forest...
Ning Sa said: "Do you have any way to get Jiuxiang's permanent residence certificate on Beichen Star?"
Xia Chujian thought of the quota that came with the villa and was a little worried. She said: "I have a total of five quotas, and the other two were originally reserved for Aunt Chen and Yingying."
Ning Sa said: "Isn't Yingying going to take the college entrance examination this year? Give it to Jiuxiang first. If Yingying is admitted to a university on Beichen Star, she won't need to apply for a permanent residence certificate again."
Xia Chujian thought about it and it was right, "Then give it to Jiuxiang first."
If Yingying didn't get admitted to a university on Beichen Star, she wouldn't live on Beichen Star for a while, so it doesn't matter.
Ning Sa was in a hurry to go back to Beichen Star and bought a ticket for the interstellar spaceship that could leave in the evening.
Xia Chujian simply bought a ticket for Jiuxiang and asked Ning Sa to take it back to Beichen Star together.
This month is a bit busy, a new chapter every day!
