She was more used to hearing Ye Mo's usual and more natural voice!

Ye Yang had barely managed to put Little Huzi in a diaper despite his inexperience when the material got really wet instantaneously.

"Ah, Little Huzi peed!" Ye Ling exclaimed.

Ye Mo twitched his jaw as he imagined the same thing that could happen later at night.

Liu Duo laughed. "We should've let him pee before we put on clothes for him. Babies pee a lot!"

Ye Yang did not find it troublesome. Patiently, he changed the baby into a clean diaper a second time.

"Wash it," He said, and passed the stained one to Ye Mo.

Er...

Ye Mo blinked, but eventually relented and went to wash it at the well.

"Yang, I think you're handling this really well," Liu Duo said to him, smiling.

She had never really seen Ye Yang spending time with Little Huzi, so it was quite unexpected to find that he was quite good at it, despite lacking experience.

"Learning by doing."

After changing the diaper, Ye Yang lay his eyes on the little bundle of joy in his lap. His usual coldness had largely faded.

Liu Duo had gained more respect for him. It was always the quiet ones who came with the most surprises!

Perhaps the ability to speak very little was a skill too. Most people could not manage with only a limited amount of words, albeit concise ones.

Giving Little Huzi a bath was not the hardest task.

Once every one of them had washed up and returned to their rooms, a baby's loud cries could be heard coming from Ye Mo's room, instantly breaking the silence of the night.

"Liuzi, do you think Mo can handle that?" Liu Duo asked Ye Liu next to her.

"He will have to, because this will happen eventually, right? You sleep now, I'm going down to check."

Ye Liu sat up, put on a robe, and got out of bed.

By the time he grabbed the oil lamp and was about to head out the door, Liu Duo had come up to him. "Wait, I'm coming too."

She did not have any experience with putting babies to sleep, so there was nothing she could help with even if she went to check, but she still wanted to make sure.

There was strength in numbers, right? Three adults should be able to deal with a six-month-old baby.

When the two came to the third floor, Ye Yang and Ye Ling were already in Ye Mo's room. They were staring at the crying baby and had no idea what to do!

"Yang, Mo, do you think he's hungry?" Liu Duo heard Ye Ling say as they turned a corner.

"Didn't Aunt Li say something before they left? If he wakes up hungry in the middle of the night, feed him some porridge. But we just started! He can't be hungry, can he?"

Ye Mo seemed irritated, but he lowered his voice nonetheless. Any louder and he would scare Little Huzi, who in turn would cry even more!

It was fully dark by then, about ten o'clock, not even midnight.

"Picky sleeper, or not tired?" Ye Yang supposed it should be one of the two.

"Duo Er, why have you come down? Did he wake you?" Ye Ling asked fondly.

Their wife was pregnant. Her sleep should not be affected.

"No, I'm just wondering why he's crying."

After she entered the room, she took over Little Huzi from Ye Mo.

Liu Ran, who was on the second floor, could not sleep as well due to the crying, but he would not be of help if he went up, so he took some time to study instead.

Perhaps Little Huzi had grown familiar with Liu Duo's lap, because he eventually stopped crying.
