Chapter 439: Son of the Moon

Chu Qing wondered why this person was so white. Shui Maomao was already excited: "Are you Chu Qing?!"

"Uh..." Chu Qing didn't understand what it meant.

Xiaobao had already pulled Chu Qing to sit down, and then said, "Mom, look at him. He is so white. Is he sick? I can't find out."

Chu Qing: "...Xiaobao, please speak nicely."

How can anyone come up and say someone is sick?

Xiaobao: "Mom, have you ever seen such a white person? Is it a disease? Do you know?"

During a trip to Kyoto, Xiaobao couldn't go to the medical clinic to inquire in person. He always felt that he didn't do his best. Now that his "omnipotent" mother is here, he quickly asked.

Shui Maomao didn't mean to be angry at all, but looked at Chu Qing with a little expectancy.

Chu Qing looked at Shui Maomao seriously. He had fair skin, whiter than Gan Lai, and whiter than white people. His eyebrows and eyelashes were also white. The hair stubble growing on his scalp was also slightly yellowish white, and his eyes were black.

Light to amber...

Chu Qing felt that bluntly saying "this is a disease" when they first met was a bit too offensive, so she thought about it and said: "Child of the Moon, you are the child of the moon."

There is a special group of people in the world: their body, hair and skin are all white, as if dyed by moonlight, so white that they are crystal clear; compared to the sun, they are easily sunburned, but the soft moonlight makes them more comfortable.

Therefore, the medical community gave this group of people a very romantic and poetic name: children of the moon.

These people are people with albinism.

"What... does this mean?" Shui Maomao's voice was trembling - this man knew what was going on with him!

"Child of the Moon, it sounds so nice! Shui Maomao, you are the child of the moon! You are not a water ghost, you are a god!" Xiaobao was happy for him.

"Chu... Master Chu, is this a disease?" Shui Maomao was excited, but still asked.

This is a disease, or an incurable genetic disease.

"As long as you don't bask in the sun, it won't affect your lifespan. Well... being in the sun will make your skin and eyes uncomfortable." Chu Qing replied.

It’s easy to get sunburned and get skin cancer. Alas, it’s hard to explain.

"Then... what about having a baby?" Shui Maomao asked eagerly. His parents are both normal people, and his son is also a normal person.

How to explain the concept of single-gene autosomal recessive inheritance?

Chu Qing scratched his head in embarrassment: "It's hard to say, it has to be the moon."

Let’s use the concept of “Locust God”, natural disaster.

"Oh..." Shui Maomao responded vaguely - Yue Yue didn't like her son, is it a good thing or a bad thing?

"It's true... Ordinary parents may or may not give birth to a child of the moon. The child of a child of the moon may not be a child of the moon, but may be an ordinary person." Chu Qing said, and then concluded: "How can everyone be considered auspicious?

It’s worth it!”

"You said I am...Xiangrui?" Shui Maomao's voice was a little hoarse.

"Yes!" Chu Qing affirmed, because the things that Xiaobao takes very seriously must be good things, so he added: "But please note that auspicious signs are more delicate. Since the moon has chosen you, try to avoid it.

Come on to the sun, lest it become jealous."

Chu Qing just heard Shui Maomao call him "Master Chu" and thought that if Xiaobao told him his identity, then this person must be trusted by Xiaobao.

When facing Xiangzi just now, Shui Maomao even protected Xiaobao behind her. Although she did it in an inconspicuous way, Chu Qing still saw it, so she couldn't bear to explain the albinism clearly.

Of course, there's no way to explain it clearly.

However, Shui Maomao was excited for a while, and then he realized that they didn't want him to be harmed, but fortunately they said it would not affect his lifespan, so he and his several furs could feel more at ease.

Chu Qing and the others were in time for the meal, so Gan Lai and Chu Yuan went to the kitchen to stir-fry some more vegetables.

There were many people in the family, and Xiao Sining was about to take Xiangzi and the others to eat in a restaurant outside. Shui Maomao shouted: "Take them all away!"

Then he called Hou Ze: "Monkey cub, go quickly and bring all the little furry cubs here!"

Seeing Xiao Sining not moving, Shui Maomao got angry: "As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to your brother!"

With Xiaobao's guards and Chu Qing's guards, there were fifty or sixty people sitting in the courtyard. It was really too messy. Xiaobao nodded to Xiao Sining: "Okay, you can go out to eat."

There is an escort agency in the front yard, and there are escorts on duty, so it's really not easy to get into trouble.

Everyone had left, Chu Yuan and Gan Lai were busy in the kitchen, leaving only Chu Qing, mother and son, and Shui Maomao in the yard.

"Shui Maomao pays homage to my benefactor!" Shui Maomao suddenly knelt down and prostrated.

Chu Qing was startled and quickly moved away. What happened to this old man? How could he kneel to himself at such an old age?

"This...you...get up..." Chu Qing was at a loss.

Today, things happened one after another, and they were not connected to each other. It was impossible not to short-circuit my thinking.

When entering the door, he first saw the little old man chasing Gan Lai, then Xiaobao asked the little old man what disease caused him to be so white, and then the little old man suddenly knelt down to himself...

"Xiao Bao, hurry up!" Chu Qing called Xiao Bao. Due to etiquette, Chu Qing could not help Shui Mao Mao, so she had to call Xiao Bao. She also wanted to ask Xiao Bao what the little old man was doing.

Xiaobao picked up Shui Maomao and said, "Maomao said you saved his son."

Chu Qing: "Ah?"

Shui Maomao was still as excited as before: "Master Chu, I thank you for saving Wei Chengyi's life, so that I can still have something to think about in this world!"

"Wei Chengyi is your son?!" Chu Qing and Xiaobao said in unison.

What a surprise!

"Isn't your surname Shui? Your son...?" Xiaobao asked: "Is your wife's surname Wei?"

After helping Shui Maomao sit down, Shui Maomao told a story from the past:

"I was born in snow-white, my hair, eyebrows, and even my fine hairs were all white, which scared away the midwives. Except for my mother who regarded me as a treasure, everyone in my family said I was a monster, and my father even wanted to kill me.

I;

When a woman in our place gave birth to a baby, the villagers wanted to give her red eggs. When they saw the midwife running out shouting "monster, monster" and heard my father yelling at my mother, "give birth to something, come out," they all stopped the midwife.

My mother-in-law asked about it, and everyone in the village knew that I was a freak;

The people in the village unanimously believed that I was an unlucky thing and wanted to drown me. My mother fought with death, but it was useless. On the day I was full moon, my father stole me out and threw me into the whirlpool of the river..."

Xiaobao heard this story told by Li Hu, and was extremely sad and angry at the time. Now that he heard it told by the person involved in person, even though Shui Maomao told it in a much more boring way than Li Hu told it, he felt even more blocked in his heart and couldn't breathe.

Dear father!

Chu Qing was also stunned when she heard this. This was unbelievable to her. No matter how vicious a family member was, they wouldn't throw their own son into the river with their own hands, right?

"Hey! It's okay! I'm lucky, the whirlpool vomited me out, nothing's wrong!" Shui Mao Mao smiled nonchalantly, but his smile was clearly a little lonely.

He went on to say, "But the people in the village were even more frightened. They said that I became a 'water monkey' when I came into contact with water. When my father saw that I was still alive, he wanted to stone me to death. In the end, my mother grabbed the village chief to protect me.

The children of the family must die together. There is no way, we have been expelled;

My mother couldn't find any work with me, and people thought I was a monster, so I had to beg for food during the day and sleep in cemeteries at night. Until I was weaned, I finally met a coffin shop out of kindness and asked my mother to stay overnight to prevent fires and other things.

, we, the two of us, are finally settled..."
