The Mermaid of the Deep Sea

Chapter 52

"Our... home?" Derby felt that his brain was not enough. He understood every word that Lei Boting said, but why did he not know what it meant when they were put together?

"Yes, our home, our home on land." Derby's reaction was completely within Leibertin's expectations. He rubbed Derby's face with a smile, and then pulled him with a big The smooth stone leaped into the wall as a fulcrum.

There were two plops, a huge splash of water, and the two mermaids were placed in the room.

Derby soaked in the water for a while, and then poked his head out to look carefully at everything around him. The pure white single-storey house, and the wooden door that Lei Boding had described to him before, and the large inlay The glass on the door, and the huge sink that led into the house, all of this seemed so unreal to Derby.

After a long time, Derby turned his head and looked at Lei Boding who had been looking at him with a faint smile, "You said... this is our home? Right?"

"Of course, this is our home." Lei Boting stepped forward to embrace Derby, and dropped a kiss on the tip of his nose.

Derby still couldn't recover, looking at Lei Boding's bright eyes, Derby asked in a daze, "Can you explain?"

"Of course, I'm extremely happy." Lei Boting raised his eyebrows, pulled Derby to sit down on the steps built in the pool, pointed to the house, and then pointed to the sea water separated by the stone wall, "Remember that Is the field shaking?"

"Remember." Derby nodded honestly, "It's related to that?"

"Yes." Lei Boding patted Derby's hand and continued, "After the shock, I have been thinking about this issue. You also saw Chief Liam and the tribe he brought, because of the shock , even though there was a warning in advance, but I still can only watch it happen, and I can't take much precautions, because they are all in the sea, and there is nowhere to hide. That's it, and the mermaid was injured. So, I just If I think about it, I want to find a place that is suitable for us to live in and is not in the same geographical location as the deep sea. I didn’t think about land at first, but when I was doing business with Arthur, he reminded me with a casual joke Me, that's why I decided to ask Arthur to help us get such a house..."

After listening to Lei Boding's explanation, Derby finally understood, but looking at the gurgling water in the pool, Derby was still a little curious, "This water...has the same taste as sea water!"

"Of course." Lei Boting held up a handful of water and handed it to Derby to show him, "Because this water is taken from the sea. You know, Arthur's partner, that is, my fellow villager, He Kaiwen is very interested in this He seems to be very proficient, so he also contributed a lot to my settlement on land."

After finishing speaking, Lei Boting took a long breath, hugged Derby's shoulders, and watched the sunset followed by the slowly rising moon, "Also, even if it's not for refuge, we can stay here for a while when we have nothing to do. , It’s just the two of us, just stay here, bask in the sun if you want, look at the moon if you want, no one else will come in anyway, Arthur also helps us maintain this place, think it’s beautiful.”

Listening to the beautiful blueprint conceived by Lei Boding, Derby also showed a longing expression on his face, but in the next second his expression was a little embarrassed, "Is it not good for us to trouble Arthur like this?"

Lei Boting waved his hand nonchalantly, "Of course I won't let others work for nothing. I still have to count the expenses that should be calculated clearly. It's not like I took advantage of Arthur."

Hearing what Lei Boding said, Derby felt relieved, then let go of Lei Boting's arm, and looked around curiously.

Just like what Lei Boding said, this house is surrounded by water, the house is surrounded by the imported sea water like a small island, and the designer also specially designed a road to allow mermaids to enter the house. In the empty house, there is no furniture used by Cheng Chi or the people on land mentioned by Lei Boding when they were chatting, and some of them are just a huge seawater pool, but in the pool, Lei Boting thoughtfully placed stone bed and pillows.It looks like an empty place without any decorations, but Derby likes it more and more, because this belongs to him and Lei Boting, only belongs to him and Lei Boting's home, no one will disturb, this place will always belong to them solitary space.

Lei Boting looked at Derby with curious round eyes here and there, his expression was very doting, he chose such a mermaid as his partner, Lei Boting thought it was done by himself from the beginning until now The most correct thing is that Derby is simple and kind. He doesn't have so many messy thoughts in his heart, and he doesn't want this or that. He doesn't care about those feelings of pursuit and envy. Living with such a mermaid, Really an easy and comfortable thing to do.

"How is it? Do you like it?" Lei Boting saw Derby swimming towards him with bright eyes, so he smiled and opened his arms and waited for Derby to come to his arms.

"Well, I like it very much." Leaning in Lei Boding's arms, Derby nodded vigorously, "Ray, thank you."

"Fool, this is our home, thank you!" Lei Boting rubbed Derby's hair and laughed, "You like it, which proves that I'm not bad at this job!"

"It's not bad, it's great, it's even better than great!" When encountering a particularly happy event, Derby always jumps up and down like a child, and the splash of water splashed by his flapping tail fin is The best proof.

Seeing such a childish Derby, Lei Boting bowed his head and kissed it twice, and then continued, "Although this house is finished, the inside is not very good-looking, so you can decorate it after the baby is born. Is it well decorated?"

"Why wait for the baby to be born?" Derby, who was in a good mood, was obviously very excited, "We can do it in two days."

"Of course not, what if you are tired?" Lei Boting denied it without thinking, put his hand on Derby's stomach, and said seriously, "Son, you don't want you to stay here He's still so tired in Daddy's stomach, isn't he?"

Derby looked at Lei Boding's serious look and chuckled, "The baby can't hear again."

"I can't hear anything, the baby and I have a special feeling!" Lei Boting was still so divine.

Seeing Lei Boding's serious expression, Derby simply ignored him.

The two laughed and quarreled for a while, and then they became quiet again. They floated together in the pool with their heads resting on the stone platform left after the stone wall was removed, looking at the bright moon in the sky.

"Ray, do you think we will be like this when we get old?" Derby asked thoughtlessly looking at the twinkling stars scattered around the moon.

"Of course." Lei Boting held Derby's hand, interlocked his fingers, and said softly, "When we are old, we will still be the same as now. We will bask in the sun together, look at the moon together, chat together, and talk together. doze off."

Derby turned his head to look at Lei Boting's tender eyes, and continued to ask, "At that time, I am very old, will you continue to like me?"

"Look at what you said." Lei Boding smiled, and stretched out his hand to scratch Derby's nose, "I was also a wrinkled old man at that time, why don't you say that then you will not like me? "

Derby turned his head and looked at the sky again, and muttered in a low voice, "But I think Lei is the most attractive and handsome old man even though he is old, and there must be many mermaids who like you."

This time, Derby didn't wait for Lei Boting's reply. He turned his head and looked strangely, and found that Lei Boting had turned around at some point, then raised his head and smiled at Derby, and finally put his ear on Derby's protruding cheek. On the stomach, after a while, Derby felt the slight vibration from Lei Boding talking against his stomach.

"Hey, baby, I know you can hear me now, and now, I have something very secret to tell you, can we not tell you Daddy?" Lei Boting listened carefully, Then nodded and continued, "Okay, since you agreed, I'll continue. Your Daddy is very shy, but he is a very kind and simple mermaid, and he is also the best-looking mermaid I have ever seen , Dad loves him to death. It is because Dad loves your Daddy so much that you were born. You are the crystallization of our love. Of course, life is not full of vigor and vitality every day. At that time, I might ignore your Daddy because of my busy work, and maybe your Daddy would be in a bad mood occasionally. Then at this time, my dear baby, you must be by Daddy's side, I hope you I can tell your Daddy that your daddy's love for him has not changed at all, and it has even become stronger as time goes by. In fact, daddy is also very worried. Look at your Daddy, will weave The most beautiful silk gauze in the world can decorate the warmest house in the world, and can even make such delicious sea sweet leaves. Dad is always afraid that other mermaids will snatch him away from such a good mermaid. .Whether you are 20 or 30 or [-] or [-], Dad will always worry about this, so in order to guard your Daddy, Dad will also work hard to make himself better. When Dad is working hard for this goal Now, baby, you have to help daddy tell Daddy to let him have confidence in daddy, okay? Because no one is worthy of your Daddy except daddy, right?" The little finger hooked Derby's belly, "Baby, let's make a deal."

Derby looked down at Lei Boding who was chatting with the child in his womb, listening to his seemingly insecure but full of comforting words, Derby only felt his eyes sore for a while.Lei Boting always said how lucky he was to meet him, but for himself, how lucky should he be to meet Lei Boting?Derby knew that the love and consideration that Lei Boding brought him was something he could never get from others.

Thinking of this, Derby sniffed, reached out to touch Lei Boding's face, and made a playful smile, "If you make me angry in the future, I will have a helper."

"Of course." Lei Boding showed a dog-legged expression in coordination with Derby, "But daughter-in-law, don't worry, don't we have two house rules?"

"What house rules?" Derby didn't know when his family had this thing.

Lei Boting's answer was extremely serious, "First, what my daughter-in-law says is always right; second, if my wife occasionally says something wrong, please refer to the first."

"What a mess!" Derby frowned, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help laughing again.

Seeing Derby smiling, Lei Boting also leaned forward with a smile and put his arms around his wife's round shoulders, eating some small tofu.

Smiling and laughing, Derby frowned, covered his stomach with his hands, and slowly curled up.

Seeing that something was wrong, Lei Boting also frowned, "Bibi, what's wrong? Stomach pain?"

Seeing Lei Boding's concerned eyes, Derby smiled with a pale face, "I think... the baby can't wait to come out."

"Huh?" Lei Boting was stunned, and then panicked again, "Then, what should we do? Shall we go back to the deep sea? Ah, no, no, you must not be able to swim like this, no No, what to do, what to do..."

Looking at Lei Boding who was wandering around in the water, Derby suddenly calmed down. Enduring the pain in his stomach, Derby grabbed Lei Boding, "Ray, don't be nervous, can you take it easy? Take me indoors first. Would you like to go to the stone bed?"

"Eh? Hey, okay..." For the first time, like a child at a loss, Lei Boding did what Derby said, obediently and carefully brought Derby to the stone bed in the indoor pool.

Just as he helped Derby to lie down, Lei Boding in the water started to turn around again, "Now? What are you going to do now? What do you want me to do?"

"It's okay, there's nothing special to do." Derby patted Lei Boting's hand, took a breath and told Lei Boting, "You go and get the golden scallop first."

Lei Boding swam out and brought in the golden scallops outside, then stared at Derby like a puppy waiting for instructions.

Derby directed Lei Boding to put the golden scallops in the designated place, and then took Lei Boting's hand, "Now, stay with me and welcome the birth of our baby together."

"Okay, I'll be with you." After a period of turmoil, Lei Boting gradually calmed down. As early as Derby's pregnancy, he inquired about many things related to childbirth, and he also knew that giving birth to mermaids is not as bloody and difficult as humans. , How fish lay eggs can also be seen as mermaid in the same way.

After taking a few deep breaths, Lei Boding lowered his head and branded a kiss on Derby's forehead, "Honey, I'll be by your side, don't be nervous."

Looking at Lei Boding who was completely different from the panic just now, Derby pursed his lips and smiled, "Yeah."

What happened next was as logical as it happened, breathing slowly, occasionally exerting force a few times, gradually, a large, milky white egg slid out of Derby's belly, with a few wisps of faint bloodshot.

Seeing the child whom he and Derby had been looking forward to for a long time actually appeared in his line of sight, Lei Boding's heartbeat suddenly jumped two beats, and then he stabilized his mind, calmly moved the The eggs are packed into the golden scallops.

After all this was done, Lei Boting turned around and looked at Derby who was smiling at him. His nose was a little sore, and his heart was filled with unspeakable emotion, so that his tone was a little choked up when he spoke, "Bibi, our child , was born."

Derby looked at Lei Boding's expression that seemed to be crying and smiling, and Derby, who was a little tired, nodded gently with a faint smile on his lips.

Although he had imagined that the child might be born when the two left the deep sea, when this matter actually became a reality, Lei Boding still felt a little at a loss.

And Derby also felt that it would be better to bring the child back to the deep sea, so after the two discussed, Lei Boting took Derby and the newborn baby back to the deep sea with a wave of his hand—of course, considering Derby’s physical condition, Lei Boting Regardless of Derby's objections, Ting put his arm around Jinsibei and Derby in the other, and Derby did not make any effort to bring the two most important people in his life back to the deep sea.

Mermaid production is not as troublesome as that of humans, so there is no need to pay attention to confinement. What should Derby do after a day's rest? Only Leiberdin spends most of his time staring at the golden scallop every day. , vainly trying to see the growth of his precious son from the perfectly stitched golden shell, and can no longer care about other things.

When Lei Boding put all his energy into practicing clairvoyance and doubling his love for his wife, some things happened outside, for example, his pearl corals were selling well, for example, he joined this business Nathaniel in the movie is finally no longer a dead face all day long. For example, the utensils brought into the deep sea by Arthur are also warmly welcomed by the mermaids.Also, Patriarch Liam has found a suitable place for his people to live in. Except for those clansmen who developed feelings for the mermaids here and stayed as partners, the other mermaids have followed Patriarch Liam, and among them There is Noel.

This time, Noel didn't come specifically to look for Lei Boting and Derby, but when Lei Boting brought Derby to follow the arrangement of the patriarch and all the clansmen to see them off, he made a mouth gesture to the two mermaids .

Derby can see clearly, that means sorry.

Just as the birth of a child is so sudden, the time when he really came into this world is also so unexpected.

That night, Lei Boting got up to drink water in the middle of the night, and then swam to the baby room specially prepared for the child. Even if he couldn't see his son's true face, even touching the clam, Lei Boting felt comfortable .

But this time, as soon as Lei Boding swam to the door of the baby room, he stopped, because the shell that had been tightly closed was opened at this moment, and a small version of a little mermaid with the appearance of a Derby was sitting there. In the big shellfish, he noticed the movement at the door. The little mermaid turned his head and looked at the mermaid standing on the spot. The little mermaid turned his watery blue eyes and spit out the reason why he came to this world. The first sentence, "PaPa?"

Such a childish call made Lei Boding cry out. He subconsciously turned his head to look at Derby who got up at some point, crying and laughing, "Our son, call me Dad."

Looking at Lei Boding standing there crying like a child, Derby smiled instead.

I have flaws, I am not favored by all fish, and even I myself think that I will die alone like this.But now, I have a family, a partner who loves me, and a child who loves me and my partner, and that's what life is all about.

Meeting you was really the best thing that happened to me in my life.
