As a father, I just want to watch you live forever.

Dajing, Yunzhou, Feilei City.

A night of heavy snow, the whole dilapidated city was covered in silver, and the cold air was pressing.

The gray sky, the cold wind was like a knife, blowing and cutting bones.

Li Che tightened his thin cotton coat, holding a frozen crucian carp in his hand, which he spent a lot of money to get in winter.

In order to nourish his pregnant wife.

Touching his stubbled beard, blowing a mouthful of white hot air on the palm of his hand, Li Che walked quickly towards home along the wide streets of Feilei City in the cold wind and snow.

It has been nineteen years since he traveled through this world. From a newborn baby to a poor citizen struggling for a living, Li Che gave up the fantasy of having a golden finger.

High-rise buildings and neon lights have long become a dream, only aftertaste, and can never go back.

This world is similar to the ancient times, but more dangerous. Natural disasters, man-made disasters, evil spirits are rampant, and it is difficult for people to survive.

After accepting his fate, Li Che only wanted to protect his wife and children, live a safe and stable life, and live a good second life.

According to the arrangement of his family, he married his wife at the age of 18, and had a wedding night and got pregnant. Now his wife is ten months pregnant and is about to give birth.

Feilei City is very large and is divided into the inner city and the outer city. The inner city is said to be where those noble families and officials live. The streets are wider, the life is extremely luxurious, and the public security is more strict.

Those who can enter the inner city are all people of status.

As for the outer city, it is where the majority of hard-working people live.

Walking along the long street for several miles, turning into an alley, you can see a row of low black tile houses.

The hurried footsteps stepped on the soft snow, making a creaking sound.

"Brother Che! Oh, Brother Che, you are finally back from work!"

"Your wife is about to give birth, go back and see her!"

"You are going to be a father!"

In the distance, neighbors who knew Li Che saw him and shouted.

Li Che was shocked when he heard this.

At the same time, he hurriedly quickened his pace and ran towards his own mud house, with the white snow flying behind him!

The sky was already slightly dark, Li Che came to the door of his house, the old wooden door was open, and the woman's soft cry of gritted teeth and the midwife's hurried encouragement came from the house.

"You are back?"

In the small courtyard outside the mud house, on the shabby bench, an old scholar wearing a cotton jacket inside and a shabby scholar's shirt outside was sitting upright, smoking a dry pipe.

This scholar was Li Che's uncle, Li Liang.

When Li Che was eight years old, his parents died of illness. He was fostered in his uncle's home and grew up smoothly. His uncle's family also helped him a lot in getting married and having children.

"Don't worry, Grandma Lei is the best midwife in the area. Xiaoya will be fine. The mother and child will be safe." The old scholar said while holding a pipe.

After two lives, this was the first time he became a father, so Li Che was naturally nervous.

He paced back and forth in front of the door of the earth house with a frozen crucian carp.

This made the old scholar a little impatient, "Why are you hanging around, you little brat? You are not stable at all as a father!"

"Can you put down the frozen fish in your hand first?"

Li Che glanced at him and didn't answer. Naturally, he didn't put down the fish, but he stopped pacing.

Because there was a loud cry in the house!

Li Che's eyes condensed, and his heart seemed to be squeezed hard by a hand.

Li Liang, the old scholar who was smoking a dry pipe, also stood up immediately, put out his cigarette, and looked into the house eagerly.

Suddenly, a loud noise like rolling thunder came out from the dark sky!

The old scholar was frightened and grumbled.

Li Che subconsciously raised his head and vaguely saw a thunder dragon rolling in the sky.

Birth accompanied by strange phenomena?

Do you think it's a fantasy novel?

Li Che didn't think about it at all. Following the midwife's call, he hurried into the house.

The charcoal stove in the house was burning, dispelling the cold and bringing some warmth.

The midwife held a red baby in her arms and looked at Li Che: "Congratulations, Mr. Li, congratulations, it's a lovely daughter."

Li Che's face was full of joy, and he didn't know where to put his hands holding the frozen crucian carp for a while, so he could only keep saying: "Thank you, thank you..."

After thanking the midwife quickly, he threw away the crucian carp belatedly.

Carefully, with trembling hands, he took the child and looked at it carefully.

When he saw it, he felt as if there was a sense of blood fusion, although the newborn baby had wrinkled skin and it was hard to tell whether it was beautiful or not.

But Li Che thought this baby was the most beautiful child in the world.

Because this was his, Li Che's daughter!

Just when Li Che was full of joy and stared at the little baby non-stop.

The whole picture in front of his eyes suddenly blurred, as if there was an illusion, as if on a vast and empty land, the soil and rocks broke open, the rocks penetrated the sky, and an emerald green seedling grew vigorously and soared straight up.

In an instant, a towering tree with luxuriant branches and leaves was formed!

"This..."

Li Che was at a loss.

Then he saw that the countless leaves on the towering tree trembled, as if reflecting light, and it actually formed a picture of him outside the earth house, listening to his daughter's cry at birth.

The picture flashed by, and then it shrank like a vortex at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally shrank on a corner of the branch, condensing into a crystal clear, colorful fruit.

…

[Happy to win a daughter, bound by bonds]

[The beloved daughter is born, and the Tao tree bears fruit]

[Your daughter is born safely, and you get a Taoist fruit]

…

Li Che suddenly came to his senses, and his daughter's cry of "Wow wow" was still there.

"Ms. sir, show me your daughter..."

A weak voice came from the mouth of the pale and delicate young woman on the bed. Li Che quickly and carefully held the baby and moved closer.

"Daughter-in-law, look, our baby!"

Li Che unconsciously grinned with a bright smile.

Daoguo and so on... He didn't have the time to think about it. Now he only had his wife and daughter on his mind.

His wife Zhang Ya, Li Che's other half, is also a woman who is willing to entrust her life to him in this chaotic world.

"Ms. sir, my baby's nose looks like yours, very straight." Zhang Ya looked weak, but she was also full of joy at this moment. She stretched out her slender fingers and tapped the baby's little nose.

Li Che looked at his wife with soft eyes: "Daughter-in-law, does it hurt?"

Zhang Ya pursed her pale lips, smiled and shook her head: "It doesn't hurt, I'm happy."

"Ms. sir, what is our child's name?"

Zhang Ya asked expectantly, but as if she thought of something, she looked past Li Che and subconsciously looked at the uncle and old scholar standing at the door.

Li Che glanced at the old scholar and saw that he was wrinkling his eyebrows. Uncharacteristically, he did not show off his literary talents or fight for the right to name his daughter.

Li Che knew what he was thinking.

But he didn't care. He held his wife's cold little hand and said softly: "I have already thought about it these days."

"It's extremely cold this winter. I just hope our little one can stay warm, so let's call her Li Nuanxi..."

"Warmth is like the fire of the morning sun, dispelling disasters and pain, so that you can grow up safely and happily."

Li Che said in a soft voice.

Zhang Ya smiled happily, "Nuan Xi, it sounds so good..."

Xixi in Zhang Ya's arms seemed to have heard her name, and actually stopped crying and showed a smile.

However, after a while, he started crying again.

The midwife hurriedly came over and said, "The baby must be hungry. We need to feed the baby..."

Li Che and the old scholar heard this and hurried out of the earthen house.

…

…

In the yard, patches of goose feather snow fell from the sky.

The chill is rising and the weather is getting colder in the middle of winter.

The smile on Li Che's face never disappeared. It turned out that this was how it felt to be a father, and he couldn't help but feel the responsibility to protect his mother and daughter.

However, the old scholar seemed a little unhappy, so he picked up the dry cigarette and started smoking it again.

Li Che smelled the smell of smoke and frowned: "Uncle, pinch it quickly, the child is here."

The old scholar sighed, put out his cigarette, and pursed his lips: "It's just a girl, why don't you take care of me? Our old Li family..."

Li Che couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "With or without a handle...is it important?"

"The old Li family has a throne to inherit?!"

When the old scholar heard this, the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls was not so easy to give up, but he stopped talking and just kept mumbling in a low voice.

Li Che shook his head, but didn't say much.

He picked up the frozen crucian carp and walked to the kitchen, intending to make a bowl of hot crucian carp tofu soup for his wife.

While cooking the fish soup.

Li Che finally took some time off and planned to study the Tao Fruit that accompanied the birth of his daughter.
