Chapter 812: Chapter 0812: Bald Xibao 1

Feng Qingxue had no time to concern herself with Jiu Hong and Lu Zhaodi’s troubles, taking advantage of Ouyang Zijin being free today, she said to Lu Jiang, "Fubao is asleep, take Xibao with your old brother to Xiaozhao’s place for a haircut. Xibao’s hair has gotten long, covering his ears and eyes. It’s hot during the day, he likes to go out and play, his hair gets all wet, which can easily lead to dampness entering the brain during sleep, bad for his health."

"Okay, you stay home and watch over Fubao."

Ouyang Zijin was puzzled, why did they both need to go for Xibao’s haircut?

When they reached the soldier in charge of haircuts, Lu Jiang was quick to catch Xibao as he turned to run, carrying the kicking and struggling boy inside, what followed was an eye-opener for Ouyang Zijin.

Once inside, Lu Jiang sat in the barber’s chair with Xibao in his lap, his legs clasping Xibao’s legs, and his hands pinning Xibao’s arms.

"Old brother, when Xiaozhao starts cutting Xibao’s hair, you hold his head steady so he doesn’t move around."

Ouyang Zijin heard and hurried forward, but before he could touch Xibao’s head, Xibao started to struggle and wail, tears falling down like a waterfall, "No, no, mommy help, mommy help!"

He howled at the top of his lungs, while Lu Jiang remained unfazed.

Ouyang Zijin was taken aback.

"You’ve got to hold him tight, Colonel Lu. Colonel Ouyang, give me a hand, don’t just stand there! My razor doesn’t have eyes. But, Colonel Lu, what kind of haircut are we doing for Xibao? How about a crew cut?" Xiaozhao draped a cloth around Xibao to protect his clothes, tucking it into the collar and wiping the razor on it.

Seeing the razor, Xibao screamed even louder, "Bad man, bad man!"

Lu Jiang thought for a moment, "Just shave him bald, that’ll be easier!"

Xiaozhao, already used to Xibao’s fierce reactions, didn’t wash his hair but simply wet it with a damp towel. The little fellow tried to shake free and screamed, tears and snot flowing freely.

Ouyang Zijin used both hands to finally restrain his little head, making it easier for Xiaozhao to wield scissors, razor, and clippers.

Xibao cried as if the world was ending, while the three adults sweated profusely from the effort.

It took twice as long as it usually did to cut other soldiers’ hair before Xiaozhao finally completed the task. He wiped Xibao’s head with a damp towel, removed the hair-covered cloth, and shook off the hair.

Once Lu Jiang let go, Xibao hit the ground running.

Running out while wiping his tears, "Mommy, save me, mommy save your baby, baby’s met a bad person!"

Zheng Xuefeng left Tian Ling’s house, walking through the family courtyard when he saw this spectacle; his annoyance from the Jins instantly turned into a smile, "Ah, where did this little monk come from?"

The bald head was shiny, and coincidentally, the red, white-rabbit-patterned shirt had slanting lapels, tied with a sash.

The shirt and pants were very loose, quite elegant.

Xibao was crying so hard he was gasping for breath, as if he didn’t hear Zheng Xuefeng, his steps unceasing as he brushed past him, straight home to find his mother, "Mommy! Mommy!"

Lu Jiang greeted Zheng Xuefeng and followed inside the house too.

As for Ouyang Zijin, he went back to his dorm early after Xibao’s head was shaved bald, clutching his stomach in laughter.

Watching the little baldy in front of her, crying with snot and tears, accusing his father of being a villain while she was folding clothes, Feng Qingxue was instantly dumbfounded. Had a little monk joined their family?
