392 A Mother
"Princess, time to eat," Xia reminded her Miss.
Jun Hua put Nanglong Shou on his bed with reluctance. Ever since she had become a mother, she learned how to take care of the little boy far better. She came to love her son very much and felt unwilling to leave the other party. Even if it was for a second, she didn't want to leave the little boy at all.
"Alright, prepare the food, Xia."
Xia nodded and prepared the food as Jun Hua washed her hand. She picked her chopsticks and started to eat the food as fast as she could. She wanted to stay with her son again.
Seeing how the Princess was unwilling to leave the little prince, Xia felt amused. If Nanglong Soujin was here, he would surely felt jealous because the little boy received so much of Jun Hua's attention. Since she was idle, she chose to spend her time with her son very much.
Before long, Jun Hua was playing with Nanglong Shou once again. The baby seemed really happy to stay in his mother's embrace and he laughed a lot of time. It was only after some time did he finally slept again. Jun Hua put the little boy on his bed before leaving the room quietly.
"I never know that you like children this much," Qin Shie commented.
Jun Hua quickly straightened herself and put a sheepish smile, "I also didn't know about that. Probably it was because I'm a woman and a mother now."
"That's probably one of the reason," Qin Shie nodded her head in agreement, "But it was not all of them since some woman didn't like their children."
Jun Hua thought about what Qin Shie told her. She hadn't encountered any mother who didn't love their child so far. It was not like she asked the people she met about their mother too, so she might not know about their real family condition.
"I like them. They are really cute," Jun Hua grinned.
Qin Shie nodded her head. She too liked children, which was why she had been pestering her son to get married for so long. Now that she already got a grandchild, she felt really happy. Her lifelong wish has finally come true.
"You might want to have more in the future."
Jun Hua nodded. She was sure that she wouldn't want to have one in a close time, but probably she would want to have another one. But certainly she wouldn't want to have 10 like what Nanglong Soujin told her.
"How many children do you want?"
"I don't know," Jun Hua shrugged. "At least, not as many as what Soujin want."
Hearing the strange tone in Jun Hua's word, Qin Shie looked at the other party with bewilderment, "How many did he want?"
Jun Hua raised her two hands. Qin Shie almost laughed at that gesture. She was absolutely certain her son was the one who wouldn't be able to handle if he were to have that many children. When Jun Hua was giving birth, he was already panicked like it was the end of the world. If he had 10, she doubted he could handle the tension.
As a general, he could face his enemies calmly and think for a better strategy to face them. However, facing Jun Hua who was having childbirth, he was as helpless as a kitten. Qin Shie still felt amused whenever she thought about that scene.
"Don't worry, I doubt he would truly mean it," Qin Shie reassured Jun Hua.
Jun Hua nodded her head. "I think so too since he seemed pretty exhausted at that time."
'Well, his face is dark all the time when you're giving birth.' Qin Shie thought in her mind, but she didn't voice it out. It would be better for Jun Hua to not know to avoid Soujin kept on getting teased by the other party. It was enough that his mother teased him continuously.
"It has been quite some time since you become a mother. Have you gotten used to it?" Qin Shie asked.
Jun Hua nodded her head, "I think I have already started to get used to be a mother. It's quite hard at the beginning, but it's really fun."
'If you're doing something you love, it would surely be fun.' Qin Shie thought to herself as she watched the other party's figure in wonder.
Jun Hua's figure had returned back to how it was. There was simply no way one would know that she is a mother who has just given birth not long ago. Her beauty didn't diminish at all and she had instead had a mature charm added to her figure, making her looked even more attractive.
Qin Shie was sure that if the other party were to get out from this residence, no man could stay their eyes away from her. With that kind of beauty, no man would think that she was already 18 and a mother at that.
"Hua'er, did you practice martial art again?" she asked in wonder.
Jun Hua was stunned, but she shook her head. She still hadn't recovered fully, so she chose to not overact and let her body rest for a longer time. In any case, it was not like she still needed to go to the battlefield anymore.
"I hadn't practiced for a long time. I'm sure my skill has become rusty," she put a wry smile.
Qin Shie looked at Jun Hua up and down, "I don't think you're that bad. Want to try some moves? It's already almost a month."
Jun Hua pondered for a moment before agreeing. She took two wooden swords and led Qin Shie towards the training hall. The two of them stand in front of each other and before long, Qin Shie moved first to attack at Jun Hua.
As a former general, Jun Hua was very proficient at close battle combat. With a little glance, she could tell what the other party intention was and moved from the way with just a hair breath difference and attacked the other party at the open part.
Qin Shie was almost unable to move in time, making the wooden sword grazed at her a little bit, but she quickly moved again to attack Jun Hua. However, this time Jun Hua didn't attack back and only evaded for a few times before launching a counterattack, instantly took the sword away from Qin Shie's hand.
"You're really powerful," Qin Shie commented. She had never fought with Jun Hua before. Only now did she realize how powerful her daughter-in-law was.
Jun Hua nodded, "You are quite powerful too, Mother."
"I practiced years ago to protect Soujin," Qin Shie answered as she picked the sword on the ground. "Sei was previously against me training with sword, but I insisted. Still, it cannot be compared with a former general like you."
Jun Hua arched her eyebrows, "But you're also a commander in the battlefield, right?"
Qin Shie was stunned. She smiled wryly, these kids truly loved to meddle into other people past. She didn't think that the little lass could know about her past so easily, "I force Sei to bring me into the battlefield because I don't want to wait on him."
Most women would just wait for their husband to return, but she wanted to accompany her husband, so she practiced hard until she became quite skillful. Still, she didn't want to return to those days anymore since she hated the battlefield very much.
Jun Hua smiled, "We have lived in the warring era, so I don't think it's weird."
"You're right, but now that you're a mother, you won't be able to return to the battlefield anymore."
"It's not like I want to return," Jun Hua shrugged, "Ever since I abandon my other identity, I never have any intention to return. If not because of that prince, I would never reveal my real identity."
Qin Shie nodded her head. Now that they have entered the state of peace, she hoped that there wouldn't be any more war happened.
"Let's return back, Shou'er might want milk again soon."
"Ah, you're right."
