The previous plan was for Yang Hengtian and Yan Jie's marriage to be registered three months later. However, with the sudden and unexpected good news from Yan Jie's side, the Yang Family thought that it would not be good to delay for so long.


Xu Yao also thought that such a long wait was a little unreasonable, so he applied for a transfer to Tarot for Yan Jie with the higher ups. However, the transfer failed, as they were unable to find a particularly suitable person to take over Yan Jie's duties in his absence.


Finally, he thought of an alternative solution; a special marriage concession for Yan Jie and Yang Hengtian; they could complete the procedures online, hence not requiring them to be physically present at the Civil Affairs Bureau.


Yang Hengtian and Yan Jie thought about it and agreed. After Yang Hengtian returned to Tarot via teleportation, he immediately travelled back to the Flying Wolf Division by spaceship, and the pair then registered for marriage.


After registration, Yang Hengtian would have liked to publish their marriage across all the major media channels, but he had to let go of the idea due to the potential security issues it would raise. As a result, not many people knew that they had become legal spouses at that moment in time.


If it wasn’t for the fact that the Yang Family later began to prepare for the wedding, perhaps only few people would have ever known that the eldest son of the Yang Family had already gotten married.


That night, after booking the hotel for the wedding ceremony, Madam Yang made a holographic call to her eldest son, only to see that he had become a free laborer for her daughter-in-law.


“Hengtian, have you asked Yan Jie about this yet?” asked Madam Yang. “Let’s see which style he likes more. I’ll book the venue with your father in advance and have the manufacturer produce it accordingly.”


“Yes, he said he liked sky blue and ash grey.” Yang Hengtian said, “Just choose the D type from the design you sent me before.”


“All right, I see.” Madam Yang smiled. “Where’s Yan Jie at the moment? Why aren’t you with him? Has his appetite improved in these past two days?”


“It’s the same. He's in the bathroom now, vomiting.” As he said this, he took a few steps to let Yan Jie’s image appear in the communicator.


Before this call, he had spent the whole day accompanying Yan Jie. It was only after the communicator rang that he walked to the living room to accept his mother's call. The reason why he didn't use the communicator's floating feature to accept the call was because Yan Jie had just finished a bout of vomiting and hadn't wanted to be seen in such a state.


After flushing the toilet, Yan Jie rinsed his mouth again, turned his head and waved to his mother-in-law.


Auntie.” His face was so pale that he looked like he was about to collapse.


He had been listening to the earlier conversation, so he knew that Madam Yang had mentioned replacing his current robots with the latest intelligent robot housekeeper developed by their company. All the devices in his home would be replaced with the best-performing models that also boasted the highest security specifications. Then, Yang Hengtian had asked him what colors he liked.


Seeing that Yan Jie’s face was still very pale, Madam Yang said with concern, “Yan Jie, I asked someone to bring you some fruits, vegetables and snacks this morning, for a change of taste.”


Yan Jie said, “Thank you, auntie. I’ve troubled you.”


“What trouble could it possibly be? It’s for my daughter-in-law and grandchild.”


Yan Jie was embarrassed by this reply and didn’t answer. Standing up, he went back to the sofa and laid down on one side, looking very sleepy.


There was a little thing in his body, and he hadn’t expected this situation to become so troublesome.


Previously, when he saw that Le Yao was pregnant, he thought the other still managed to have quite a good quality of life, though there were also some aspects that were not so good. After all, on top of some common issues during pregnancy, Le Yao also had to struggle because he was holding three at once. It could only be said that they both had their difficulties, albeit in different ways.


Yang Hengtian delivered some liquid nutrient solution to Yan Jie’s mouth. “Drink this, it'll feel a little more comfortable.”


Yan Jie drank the nutrient solution from Yang Hengtian’s hand, and the feeling of nausea gradually receded. He said weakly, “Hurry onto the next month, ah… Little ancestor.”


Madam Yang watched this scene, then sighed and smiled. “It's been hard on you. Well, I’ll hang up first. Hengtian, make sure to take good care of him. If you need anything, please contact Mom at any time. Also, you can't let him catch a cold! I heard that the temperature is still very low over on your side, you have to be careful.”


Yang Hengtian also smiled as he replied, “I know Mom, don’t worry. It’s cold outside but the temperature and humidity indoors are good. I won't freeze or heat your daughter-in-law and your grandchild.”


Madam Yang was satisfied and soon cut off the communication.


Yan Jie was very sleepy. Every time he ate, he would vomit—it was really quite hard and he felt tired out. However, President Liu had also said that, generally speaking, these symptoms would gradually disappear within three months at most, and from the recent examination results, the child’s development was progressing normally.


Yang Hengtian took out a blanket for Yan Jie and covered him with it. “Shall I carry you to bed?”


Yan Jie shook his head. “I couldn't really sleep all that well last night. I think I just need a nap. I’ll get up and see if I can eat something later.”


“Then, I'll accompany you here while looking at some company documents.”


Yan Jie hummed and soon his breath evened out.


This place was full of comfort, with a sense of quiet and peace.


On the other hand, Le Yao was about to explode.


The three little ones in the General’s family were very skilled in turning over. After they had started to turn over, he initially thought that they would probably be able to sit soon. But now, far from not being able to sit, the eldest one could already crawl! They had directly skipped the sitting stage!


The other two little ones also showed faint signs of being able to crawl. It seemed that, even if they couldn't crawl properly, merely turning over and rolling would also do!


Le Yao had placed them on the soft playing mat on the floor so that they wouldn't be hurt by falling down as they tried to crawl.


It looked like they were really having a lot of fun rolling on the ground! Le Yao had only taken his eyes off of them for a moment, yet the eldest son had managed to pour a bowl of rice into the washing machine during that moment!


If he hadn't watched the video Leslie had recorded, no one would ever have known just how energetic their child was. That was a bowl of rice specifically for incense ah!


He sighed. “Leslie, why didn't you tell me?” Le Yao then asked as he squatted in front of the washing machine, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.


The washing machine here was much smarter than the ones he had previously used. Before washing, the clothes would be automatically sorted and divided into two buckets: one for dark colors, one for light colors, and then both could be washed at the same time.


After washing, there was a function for the clothes to be dried automatically, depending on the user's needs. And when the clothes were taken out, the appliance would automatically initiate sterilization and disinfection procedures, and then the door would stay open to allow any remaining moisture to evaporate.


More importantly, it also gave a safety alert if a child entered.


But it wouldn't prevent anyone from pouring rice into it! =.=


“I’m sorry Madam, I was a little curious at that time. Since Hanghang didn’t intend to put the rice into his mouth after successfully obtaining the bowl, it made me want to see what he intended to do. By the time I wanted to stop it, he had already poured in the rice.”


Leslie also wanted to cry, but he didn’t have tears, so was currently just feeling shocked and a little amused. He also had a physical body of his own now, which could be used for the convenience of watching over the children to prevent any accidents, instead of simply wandering around and watching through the mecha or the systems of various intelligent devices.


“Forget it, I don’t understand it either. I’ll ask the General when he returns later.” Le Yao had to pick up the rice grains carefully for a long time, but it seemed like an endless process.


He suddenly hugged his head. “Ah!!! I'm going crazy!”


He walked to the playing mat and looked at the row of little buns. “You three little demons!”


“He he he~” Holding a milk bottle in his hand, Xu Hang called out, “Hold! Hold!”


“What hold?” said Le Yao, “You're still asking me for something after being so naughty?”


“Dad, teach.” Hanghang kept saying, “Hold!” And he lifted his little arms innocently in a gesture of wanting to be held, and just seeing this made Le Yao feel dizzy.


The three children had all been born at the same time, but the eldest one was better than his younger brother and sister both in intelligence and physical strength. His speed in learning to speak was also the fastest.


At the moment, the two littler ones could only sound out 'Dad' or 'Lele'; but the eldest one could already express his ideas in a simple manner.


Non-human—the genes were definitely different.


Le Yao sighed and said, “Hanghang, you can’t put rice in the washing machine next time. The washing machine broke because of that, you know?”


Hanghang turned around and looked at the washing machine. Two small teeth were exposed from the top and bottom of his gums, and he uttered, “Machine, know!”


Le Yao said, “It's good that you know. You can continue playing with your brother and sister. I’ll make you something to eat.”


When Xu Yao came back from work, he saw this scene: Le Yao was cooking in the kitchen, and the trio of two brothers and one sister were sitting in the living room playing while Leslie watched over them.


Hearing the sound of the door opening, Le Yao turned his head and said, “You're back?”


Xu Yao replied with a smile, “En. What is it that smells so good?”


“I made them some soft cakes with milk,” said Le Yao.


At the same time, the three little buns also looked towards the door at the same time, and Hanghang even lifted his little arms. “Dad, hold!”


The other two also followed in calling, “Dad!”


“Dad will take a bath and change his clothes before holding you. You continue to play first.”


Hanghang nodded, “En!”


Xu Li laid back and rolled over to Le Yao’s side. After seeing this, Hanghang also turned over, and started crawling towards the bathroom door.


The second one, Xu Wei, was different. He didn’t chase after either of their parents. When he saw that his big brother had crawled away, he grabbed his big brother's milk bottle and started drinking from it. In fact, he had his own, but he thought it was more delicious when it was stolen!


At this time, Le Yao placed the cake dough into the belly of the intelligent chef to bake, picked up his daughter, and then brought a set of clean clothes to the bathroom door for his husband.


“Reporting to the General, your eldest son made trouble again today.”


“What did he do?” Xu Yao said with a laugh, his voice coming through the sound of water pouring.


“When I went out to get something, he put the rice used for incense into the washing machine. I’m going to go blind picking each and every grain. Can you solve the issue of the remaining rice?”


Xu Yao said, “Is my family's Hanghang so naughty?”


Le Yao said “Hmm~” twice, and looked down at the little white bun who was sitting there pulling at his pants. “Not only is he naughty, I also think he needs a spanking.”


Xu Yao washed quickly and soon came out of the bathroom, only wrapped in a bath towel. Regardless of whether it was cold or not, he hugged Le Yao and kissed him for a while before letting him go. Then he squatted down and said, “Hanghang, you have been a little naughty recently.”


Hanghang giggled full of excitement. “Dad!”


“En, what is it?”


“Hold!”


Xu Yao picked up their eldest son and looked at the second one. Xu Wei was lying on the playing mat with an empty milk bottle in his arms. He looked at them from time to time but was having a good time being by himself.


“It’s been approved. Yan Jie has been cleared to take half a month off to get married.” Xu Yao put the eldest one back down on the playing mat and patted his little butt to motion him into playing. Then he said to Le Yao, “Will you go?”


“Go, of course I'll go.” Le Yao said, “But can he take leave later as well? I don’t think he’s in a good condition at the moment. If you really let him have his wedding at this time, I think he might even faint at the venue.”


“He also considered this issue when applying for leave. The higher ups agreed for him to choose any time within two months to start his holiday, so it should be after his condition improves.” Xu Yao continued, “He's lucky. In a short period of time, the matter of Sarna and the Wan Deqing-Wan Chengze duo will also be resolved. Otherwise, it would be hard for me to even let him take half a month off.”


“Then how long can we stay when we head over there? Half a month certainly won't be enough ah.”


“We’ll reach there the day before their wedding, and then return right after the wedding.” After a pause, Xu Yao held Le Yao’s hand. “Speaking of which, when we first met, I promised you that we would hold a wedding ceremony. If you want to do it, I’ll apply for some vacation time with the higher ups. It shouldn’t be too hard to get a vacation during this period.”


“No, let's not. I would rather go to sleep or go out to play together. Do we still need to care about these formalities? I don’t particularly want to. Of course, if you really want to do it, I also don't mind.”


“Then let’s not do it,” said Xu Yao.


Le Yao nodded. “Okay.”


Hanghang had been watching as his parents conversed, and he also nodded and said, “Okay!”


Le Yao gently pinched his small nose. “Little boy, how is it that you are here?”


Hanghang giggled and fell back on the playing mat while starting to gnaw at his foot. His brother and sister also learned from him when they saw him.


Seeing the little guys play happily, Xu Yao went to resolve the matter of the washing machine.


Being troubled by his beloved son every day, he was used to it by now. =.=
