Chapter 1247 Part-Time Baby Daddy (Ⅰ)

Joan was taken aback when she heard the words, and turned to look at Ruby. The first thing she thought of was her biological type.

As we all know, in the hot summer, the activities of mosquitoes are the most rampant, crazily sucking blood, and when the weather turns cold, the mosquitoes become rare and withered, either burrowing into the soil for the winter, or simply freezing to death.

Ruby, as a female "Giant Myth Enlightenment Mosquito", belongs to the subspecies of the supernatural Diptera Mosquitoidae insects, and may not be able to completely overcome her heat-loving and cold-loving nature. Reasonable.

However, Joan immediately thought that he couldn't even take care of himself, his life was very casual, and irregular meals were commonplace. Now that Mrs. Josephine asked him to take care of Ruby, who was a child with a temper, he really didn't know what to do.

Although this matter made him feel very troublesome and he was rather reluctant, but he couldn't bear to refuse the countess' entrustment, so he could only bite the bullet and answer: "If Ruby doesn't mind, you can stay with me for a while."

"Yo ho ho ho! That's great!"

"Miss Ruby" was so excited that she didn't even bother to drink the juice, she flapped her wings and flew into Qiao An's arms, happily not knowing what to do.

"Ruby, I like brother Joan the most!"

"I'm really looking forward to living with my little brother, I feel a bit like a newlyweds!"

"Come on, little girl, get rid of those unhealthy thoughts in your mind immediately!"

Mrs. Josephine gave Ruby an angry look, and said worriedly: "When you live in someone else's house, you have to obey the rules and be polite, you understand?"

"Yeah! Ruby, I have always been very good!" "Miss Ruby" nodded vigorously.

"Ha! I really don't know how you, a little rascal, have the confidence to say such a thing!" Mrs. Josephine was still a little worried, and said half-truthfully to Joan: "If Ruby doesn't listen to you, you will cause trouble. , don't be polite to her, scold when you need to be scolded, beat when you need to beat, but don't spoil this child too much!"

Joan nodded reluctantly.

Mrs. Josephine opened her handbag, took out a check, wrote a series of numbers on it, and handed it to Joan.

"This is Ruby's foster care fee, take it if you don't think it's too little."

Joan glanced at the check, and it was 10,000 Gold Durga! Even if Ruby eats watermelon every day, she still can't spend so much living expenses!

However, seeing the Countess' gentle and firm eyes, he didn't dare to refuse, scratched his head, and accepted the check with some embarrassment.

Anyway, it doesn't matter how much you spend, and the rest will be given to Ruby as pocket money.

The Countess stood up, kissed Joan face-to-face, kissed Ruby again, and told her to obey Joan again, then called the waiter, paid the bill and left.

Joan walked out of the hotel gate with the invisible Ruby, helped Mrs. Josephine into the carriage, and watched the carriage drive away.

Qiao An has no younger siblings, so she has almost zero experience in taking care of children when she grows up.

Fortunately, he has seen pigs run away before eating pork. He quickly cleared his mind and decided to take care of Ruby from two aspects of "life" and "education".

Based on her own experience with Ruby, Joan feels that the mental development of this "Miss Ruby" is not balanced.

In terms of intelligence alone, Ruby has already reached the level of an ordinary adult human being, but her mentality and character reveal a childishness, only equivalent to a seven or eight-year-old girl.

In terms of life, Qiao An has to fully manage Ruby's clothing, food, housing, and transportation.

Ruby can fly by herself, so she doesn't need to worry about traveling, and the place to live is also easy to solve. I will live in his apartment for the time being, and just add a small bed in the bedroom.

Ruby doesn't need to wear clothes, which can save a lot of money on clothing purchases.

As for food, Joan just heard from Ruby not long ago that she prefers sweet fruit juice to drinking human blood.

In terms of education, Joan recalled that when he was seven or eight years old, he was already a "little bookworm". Thinking of himself and others, he felt that Ruby should be very interested in books like fairy tales.

Thinking of this, Joan took Ruby to the commercial street near the Tuileries Hotel to buy daily necessities.

Joan first bought a crib, and it was the right size for Ruby to sleep in, and she herself said that she likes to sleep in a cradle-style bed, it is very fun to dangle.

Joan paid the money and performed the "shrinking technique". The crib, together with the small quilts, blankets, and pillows piled on the bed, were reduced to the size of a pencil case, and they were conveniently put into storage bags.

Next, Joann took Ruby to visit his favorite shop on the entire commercial street - the bookstore.

Unexpectedly, although Ruby likes to read books, she is not at all interested in bedtime fairy tales that mothers read to their babies. Instead, she likes to read novels, especially popular novels with romantic love stories as the theme.

Under Ruby's strong request, Joan took all the romance novels displayed on the bookshelf, and piled them up more than a foot high.

Since Ruby has been in an invisible state and communicated with him through telepathy, the female clerk couldn't see Ruby, so she naturally thought that Joan bought these books and read them for herself, so she looked at him strangely.

In this era, most romance novels were written by female writers, and the readers were mainly women.

For example, in the Kingdom of Feizhen, most women from bourgeois families have received good education. If they have outstanding literary talents, they don’t mind writing romance novels in their spare time to subsidize their families. This trend started in the middle of the last century, and even today It has developed into a unique cultural tradition of the country.

Restricted by the conservative ideas that still occupy the mainstream in society, most female writers are embarrassed to sign their real names on their works, but use "Miss So-and-so" or "Mrs. So-and-so" as the pen name of their novels.

Whether it is in the Feizhen Kingdom, the birthplace of modern popular romance novels, or the New World affected by this trend, with the increasing popularization of education and the improvement of women's literacy rate, the sales momentum of popular novels is also booming.

Purely in terms of sales and profits, romance novels can beat all other so-called "higher taste" literary publications on the market.

In fact, among the readers of romance novels, there are quite a few men, but because of face, few men will openly talk about the romance novels they have read recently, and even more so when they take the initiative to buy such novels in bookstores. It is very rare, and they always try to hide it by claiming that they bought it specially for their wives or daughters. As a gentleman, I am not interested in this kind of thing...

Qiao An looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, and she was dressed as a student. She didn't look like she had already married and started a business. When she walked into the bookstore and bought a lot of love novels, it inevitably attracted strange eyes.
