Lil Pea was swimming in circles in the basin, spitting a bunch of water at Hao Ren from time to time. She looked no different from usual, and Hao Ren's nervousness had dissipated by half. However, after careful observation, he did find something wrong with the little one. She would subconsciously tilt her body in a certain direction while swimming, and the swing of her tail was not as agile as before.
After two years of raising a mermaid, Hao Ren had accumulated a lot of strange knowledge. Which normal parent would have the leisure to check if their daughter's tail was straight? Hao Ren estimated that if he continued to develop like this for another two years, he would be half an aquarium expert...
"Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Hao Ren poked Lil Pea's little arm with concern. Although the little guy looked energetic, she was usually an overactive child. Plus, she was still at the age of ignorance. It was hard to say if she would ignore the little problems in her body.
Lil Pea circled around Hao Ren's finger twice, and then hugged his thumb. "I feel bloated, but I don't feel it anymore."
Hao Ren turned to Y'lisabet and asked, "What did she eat this morning?"
Y'lisabet touched her horn, her head tilted as she recalled. "My dad's newspaper, Sis Vivian's comb... Oh, and she nibbled on your table. Anyway, it's basically what she eats."
Anyone would have been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment if they had been given this recipe. However, Hao Ren thought that the little one's diet was quite healthy today. At least she did not nibble on the lamp holder today. The lamp holder was made of Bakelite, and the little mermaid could not digest it...
At this time, Nangong Wuyue heard the noise and ran over. After listening to Lil Pea's condition, she carefully took the little one out of the water and put her under the sun. She then used a water ball to make a magnifying glass to study the scales on the little one's tail. Hao Ren looked at the real deep-sea expert nervously. After a long while, he could not help but ask, "How is it? Did she eat something bad or gastroenteritis? "
Nangong Wuyue put the little guy back into the water with a troubled look on her face. "Actually, I don't know either. A mermaid is definitely not the same as a ribbonfish. It's useless for me to treat a fish based on my experience."
Lil Pea clung to the edge of the basin and looked up. She was puzzled by the serious discussion of the adults around her. The little mermaid listened curiously for a while and became impatient. She began to slap the water with her tail to attract Hao Ren's attention. Then, she shouted, "I'm bored! Boring! I'm bored! "
Hao Ren stroked Lil Pea's head with his finger. "Is your stomach still bloated?"
The little mermaid nodded.
Hao Ren turned his head towards the living room and shouted, "MDT! Go and prepare the medical bay, I'm going to give Doudou a CT scan! "
The MDT nodded and remotely activated the equipment in the basement. It then rushed into the water room. "Let me see what's going on!"
Then Lil Pea looked at the blonde big sister that she did not know. "Who are you?"
Hao Ren smiled and said, "This is your merry-go-round. It's got a new body."
Lil Pea heard this and suddenly smiled. She jumped up and rushed towards the MDT in the form of a girl. The MDT subconsciously opened its arms to catch her, but when Lil Pea was in the air, she suddenly remembered something. "Wait a minute, I'm just an image now …"
Hao Ren steadily caught Lil Pea in the air and rolled his eyes at the MDT. "So you'd better change back quickly. If you really want to express your girly feelings, wait until we're on the spaceship and no one will stop you. Don't cause trouble at home."
Then he was about to take Lil Pea to the basement for a checkup. But just when he was about to go out, the little guy suddenly arched her head in his hand and then grabbed his sleeve. "Daddy, my stomach's not bloated anymore."
Hao Ren was stunned. "Huh? You're okay? "
Lil Pea twisted her body with a weird expression. "Well, suddenly it's not bloated anymore, and …"
Hao Ren looked nervous. "And what?"
Lil Pea felt around and then found a white ball the size of a peanut. She handed it to Hao Ren and said, "I laid an egg."
Hao Ren was speechless.
It was quiet for about half a minute. Finally, Lil Pea took the initiative to pull Hao Ren 'sleeve. "Daddy, I laid an egg."
"Oh, oh," Hao Ren said with his eyes wide open. But in fact, his brain still had not figured it out. He turned to look at Nangong Wuyue, puzzled. "So, what's the situation now?"
"You ask me? Who do I ask?" Nangong Wuyue rolled her eyes. "Hurry up and send the little guy for a checkup, then we'll know!"
Hao Ren hurried to the basement with Lil Pea in his arms. The others followed behind. After a series of tossing and turning, the checkup results came out quickly. The little guy was as healthy as the sun at eight or nine o 'clock in the morning. The only change was — she had laid an egg.
Hao Ren returned to the living room with Lil Pea in his arms. He put the little mermaid on the table and placed the peanut-sized white ball on a small plate next to it. The family stared at it for a long time, no one said a word. Hao Ren reached out to touch the little "fish egg". He had to be very careful because it looked very fragile. A ball no more than a centimeter in diameter would break at the slightest touch.
Lily looked at Lil Pea and then at Hao Ren. She whispered, "Mr. Landlord, do you think this is normal?"
"Laying an egg should be normal. After all, Lil Pea hatched from an egg." Hao Ren scratched his head. "But isn't this egg laid a little too early? Lil Pea is only a little over a year old this year! "
"I'm more concerned about the size of the egg than the fact that it's laid early," Vivian said with a frown. "I remember the mermaid egg that Mr. Landlord brought back was as big as a fist and as hard as a rock. But look at this one … It's too small for a shrimp to hatch, isn't it?"
Lily squinted at Vivian. "Look at how old Lil Pea is."
"Tsk, the main problem is that Lil Pea is now the only one in the world. We have no other mermaids to compare." Nangong Sanba scratched his head. "Who knows if this is normal. By the way, I've seen a lot of reports on TV about children who take hormones that cause premature puberty. Do you think Lil Pea is the same? "
"Don't joke around. She's a wood-eater. How could she have hormones?" Nangong Wuyue snorted. Then, she pondered. "If I have to say … she often eats books. Is there something wrong with the ink on them?"
While the others were discussing, Hao Ren was staring blankly at the egg laid by Lil Pea. After a long while, he suddenly looked up and asked Nangong Wuyue, "Say, do you know how to take care of an egg after it's laid?"
Nangong Wuyue's expression immediately became very strange. "Why should I know this?"
"Aren't you a siren?"
"Sirens are not mermaids. I can't lay eggs!"
"But why do I remember that you were also a ball when you were born?"
Nangong Wuyue's face turned red. "Who told you that as long as I'm born as a ball, it's considered as oviparous? I didn't know what to look like back then, so I just randomly looked like it! And Nezha was born as a meatball. Do you think he was oviparous or viviparous? "
Hao Ren clutched his head in pain and laid on the table. "Damn, this is too complicated … What the hell are we talking about?"
Lil Pea looked at the adults talking about something she did not understand. After laying the egg, the little one was full of energy. She jumped around on the table and jumped to Hao Ren's side. She grabbed his hair and said, "Daddy, I'm hungry again!"
Hao Ren was the least worried one.
At this time, Y 'zaks suddenly broke the silence. "Why don't you ask the goddess?"
The circle of people quieted down at the same time. Then, one after another, they all said, "Oh." Hao Ren hit his head with his fist. "I was so anxious that I forgot about this. MDT, come and make the call! "
The MDT had turned back into a PDA. It floated over and was just about to connect to Raven 12345 when Raven 12345 suddenly took the initiative to send a message. "Hello, is Hao Ren there?"
"I was just about to look for you!" Hao Ren quickly went over. "My daughter laid an egg!"
Raven 12345 must have something to tell him. But after hearing what Hao Ren said, even she choked for a moment. After a few seconds, she muttered in a strange tone, "Hey, you really don't have a peaceful day … Anyway, I have something to talk to you about. Bring your daughter. Oh, by the way, bring Vivian along. "
