How to raise a random guy's wife

"Mommy~" Ran hugged Megumi's leg, "Where did Ran come from?"

"Hmm?" Kobayashi Megumi stopped wiping the leaves of the green plant. "Why did you suddenly think of asking that?"

"This!" Ran Kobayashi held up the picture book. "It says that birds hatch from eggs, does that mean Ranlan hatches from eggs too?"

"Um... wait a minute." Kobayashi Megumi called out towards the study, "Dad?"

"What's wrong?" Kobayashi Sora stopped what she was doing and came out of the study.

The production of the short film is on track, and many people need to coordinate various aspects.

Although it was Iori Hashima who was running around, the real decisive factor was the information that Sora Kobayashi possessed.

If Iori Hashima were allowed to act freely, things would take a completely different turn.

"My daughter wants to know where she came from," Kobayashi Megumi chuckled. "You'd better answer carefully."

Ran Kobayashi's question came as a surprise, and Megumi Kobayashi was momentarily at a loss for words.

However, she believed that Kobayashi Sora must have been prepared in advance.

Although Kobayashi Ran is still a child, Kobayashi Megumi feels that this is a problem that should be taken seriously and should not be glossed over with fabrications.

So she immediately called for her husband.

When Kobayashi Sora saw the picture book her daughter was holding, she had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

Holding Xiaolin Lan in her arms, Xiaolin Kongqing sat down on the sofa. "Lanlan, where do you think you came from?"

“I thought we hatched from eggs like birds…” Ran Kobayashi looked at the picture book and tilted her head. “But looking at Mommy… it doesn’t seem like that.”

At such a young age, she already knows how to observe her mother's expressions and make judgments...

Kobayashi Sora looked at Kobayashi Megumi.

As expected of Hui's child.

Kobayashi Megumi put down the rag in her hand and sat down next to her husband. She was also very curious about how Kobayashi Sora would answer.

“Yes, you guessed right.” Kobayashi Sora confirmed Kobayashi Ran’s guess first. “Ranran and Kotori are indeed different.”

"Wait a minute." Ran Kobayashi raised her hand.

"what happened?"

"Rice cake~" Ran Kobayashi called out.

"Meow~" Nian Gao responded and came running over.

Xiaolin Lan stroked Nian Gao's soft fur, "I feel like Daddy is going to talk for a long time, so I'm letting Nian Gao and Lanlan listen together."

Kobayashi Megumi smiled and gave Kobayashi Sora a look that seemed to hold amusement.

It seems that this person has been completely seen through by his little daughter.

Kobayashi Sora was speechless for a moment, then realized that this was clearly not a problem that could be solved in a few words. She needed to explain in more detail for Kobayashi Ran to be satisfied. "Well, let's start from here. Ranran and the little bird are different. Can you name a few differences?"

“Hmm…” Xiaolin Lan thought for a moment, “Birds can fly, but Lanlan can’t.”

"Hmm, anything else?"

"Birds are like rice cakes, they have feathers all over their bodies." Xiaolin Lan twirled her soft hair with her little hands. "Lanlan only has them on her head."

Is there anything else?

“Lanlan has arms!” Little Linlan stretched out her arms. “Birds have wings.”

She lowered her head, her little feet dangling, "Lanlan's are feet, the little bird's are claws~"

"Lanlan is so smart! Can you guess why the little bird and Lanlan are so different?"

"Hmm..." Xiaolin Lan shook her head, "I don't know."

"It's because we live in different places." Kobayashi Sora tried to keep it simple, even though it might be biased or even wrong, but he chose to keep it simple for his daughter to understand. "Birds live in the sky and need to fly around. Lanlan lives at home and doesn't need to fly around."

"But Lanlan also wants to fly~"

“Mom and Dad think so too, and so do many other people,” Kobayashi Sora chuckled. “But we don’t have the wings of birds, so we can’t fly. However, many very clever people have found other ways, using various tools, to allow us, who have no wings, to fly around.”

Ran Kobayashi's eyes sparkled. "Really?"

"Really? When Lanlan grows up a little more, Mommy and Daddy will take you flying, okay?"

"Okay!" Xiaolin Lan answered loudly, "Whoosh whoosh whoosh~ Let's fly!"

Rice Cake flicked its tail and yawned.

Kobayashi Ran snapped out of her excitement, "And then?"

You haven't forgotten...

"Then, can you run away carrying rice cakes?"

"Ugh... No, the rice cake is too heavy."

rice cake:"......"

"The same goes for mother birds. They can't fly if they have babies, so when they lay eggs, the mother bird will lay one egg first and then hold it until the baby grows up and hatches."

Ran Kobayashi grasped the key point: "Isn't that how Ranran is?"

“That’s right, because Mom didn’t have to worry about flying, Lanlan didn’t have to come out of the egg.” Kobayashi Sora took out her phone. “At that time, Lanlan was still in Mom’s belly.”

Lin Lan looked curiously at the phone screen, which showed her familiar father and her heavily pregnant mother. "Mom...ate Lan Lan up!"

"Huh?" Kobayashi Megumi was surprised by her daughter's idea.

Kobayashi Ran pointed to the picture and said, "My tummy is full."

Kobayashi Megumi was both amused and exasperated, and could only nudge her husband.

Kobayashi Sora corrected, "It wasn't that Mom ate Lanlan; it was that Lanlan appeared from Mom's body."

"Huh? It appeared?" Ran Kobayashi asked, confused. "How did it appear?"

“Because Dad loves Mom very much, and Mom loves Dad very much too,” Kobayashi Sora answered earnestly. “Under the influence of this love, we gave an important part of ourselves to each other and eventually became the important you. At that time, you were like an egg.”

"Like an egg?"

"They're very similar," Kobayashi Sora guided, "but eggs break very easily, right?"

"Lalan accidentally broke it last time..." Xiaolin Lan lowered her head sadly.

"Mom was worried that you would break like that too, so she put you inside her body and protected you with her own body until you became a strong little baby before letting you leave."

Xiaolin Ran looked at the pictures, then at the picture book, then at her mother. Her lips trembled, and her eyes visibly reddened. She struggled to break free from her father's embrace and rushed into her mother's arms, crying, "Mommy!"

"Huh?" Kobayashi Megumi hugged her daughter, who had started to cry. "What's wrong?"

"Lanlan hurt Mommy's tummy..." Xiao Linlan's voice was muffled, "Does it still hurt?"

“No,” Kobayashi Megumi reassured her daughter. “Didn’t Daddy say that Lanlan and the little bird are very different?”

Chapter 525 Under the Cherry Blossom Tree

"Really?" Xiaolin Lan touched her mother's belly. "So Lanlan didn't break Mommy's belly?"

“Mommy protects Lanlan, so Lanlan is considerate of Mommy too.” Kobayashi Megumi gently kissed her daughter’s head. “Don’t cry, don’t cry.”

Xiaolin Lan sobbed twice, still feeling a little unsatisfied, and hugged her mother, "Lanlan is different from the little bird, so... Lanlan won't fly away from Mommy."

Kobayashi Megumi was taken aback and hugged Kobayashi Ran tightly.

Kobayashi Sora often experienced the feeling of being sunk.

She experienced it too.

Xiaolin Lan originally had many questions she wanted to ask, but because of her concern for her mother, she put them all aside.

All I want to do right now is hug my mom.

Not wanting her daughter to dwell on one emotion for too long, Kobayashi Megumi proactively diverted Kobayashi Ran's attention, asking, "By the way, Ranran, do you know how you got your name?"

"Did Dad name it?"

Kobayashi Sora was quite self-aware, "Then you think too highly of me. It was my mother who named me."

"Mom is so amazing!"

Do you know what this name means?

"Hmm...I don't know?"

"Lan plus my father's surname makes up Lin Lan, which is also the name of a gardenia," Xiao Lin Hui pointed to the balcony, "It's that white flower."

"so beautiful......"

"Lanlan, would you like to try growing one?"

"Yes!" Xiaolin Lan's eyes lit up. "How do we do that?"

“Mom will help you.” Kobayashi Megumi took her daughter’s hand and walked with her to the balcony, instructing and explaining, “First, we need to find the best-growing flower branches.”

"This one!" Xiaolin Lan pointed to the target she had chosen.

"Then, we need to cut this flower branch off."

"Huh? Should I cut it off?"

"That's right, just like Lanlan, she needs to leave her mother to grow up faster."

"OK then......"

"After cutting it, we need to make rooting solution."

What is rooting solution?

“Hmm… Look, when Huazhi was with her mother, her mother provided her with nutrition, just like when Lanlan was in her mother’s belly, her mother also provided her with nutrition.” Xiaolin Hui patiently explained, “After Lanlan left her mother, she had to eat on her own to grow up, and after Huazhi left her mother, she also had to eat on her own.”

"Lanlan understands, the rooting solution is delicious for the flower branches!"

“That’s right.” Kobayashi Megumi instructed Kobayashi Ran to prepare the rooting solution, soaked the cuttings in the solution for a while, and then inserted them into the prepared potting soil.

"Is there anything delicious in the soil?"

"Yes, but only the cuttlefish are delicious."
