Chapter 162 Taking care of children
For lunch, I made white rice and corn stew. The kids at home wanted to eat sauerkraut, so Gu Qingqing made a dish of sauerkraut stewed with meat. The meat was just bought today and was very fresh.
I also cooked a big pot of spinach and egg drop soup.
Li Xin was eating in the study with Wen Wuyan and Old Yang.
Gu Qingqing brought her children to eat in the kitchen. There were four children sitting around the small dining table. Xiaoyang could eat by himself, but Xiaoguang was wearing thick clothes and his hands-on ability was not as strong as his sister.
Gu Qingqing saw that he was eating all over the place. If the chickens at home saw this, they would definitely have their heads nodding.
Gu Qingqing had no choice but to take his bowl, "Come, I'll feed you."
Xiaoguang sat on the bench, swinging his little feet while eating happily, his little mouth chuckled from time to time.
"Okay, there's meat." Gu Qingqing chuckled, and used a wooden spoon to pick up some meat with more fat than lean meat and put it into his mouth along with the mushy rice.
I waited until he finished half a bowl of rice before shaking my head and saying I didn't want to eat.
When he finished eating, the other children had almost finished eating. Gu Qingqing served each of them half a bowl of soup and watched them drink slowly while she ate her own.
The children are very well behaved. They sit quietly on the stools even after eating.
Gu Qingqing quickly ate the food in her eyes and said to them, "You all go to the east wing to play later. If anyone feels sleepy, just take a nap, okay?"
"Auntie, we are not sleepy. Can we play with Dahei later?" Xiaoguang spoke actively.
Gu Qingqing mourned for Dahei in her heart for three seconds, but she smiled happily on her face, "Sure! I'll let Erhua take you there later."
"Mom, can we go now? I'll take them there now, and then bring them back to sleep." said the little adult Erhua.
Gu Qingqing waved her hands at them, "Go away. But you can only touch Dahei, you can't pull his hair, otherwise he will be cold."
Led by Erhua, the three children ran out excitedly.
Gu Qingqing saw Dahua trying to put away the children's bowls, and hurriedly stopped her, "Hua'er, if you don't want to do this, I'll do it later. Is the fire in your room still burning?"
"It's burning, mother. Sanhua is still sleeping in the house."
"Well, don't let them play for too long. Call them back and take them to your room to play. Don't put out the charcoal fire on the kang. I guess they will want to sleep soon. You can take a nap if you are sleepy. I will go feed Sanhua later. Put the bowl down. I will come after I finish eating." Gu Qingqing lectured her.
Dahua gave her mother a bright smile and said "OK", but she still put the empty bowl away.
"Aunt, I seemed to hear Sanhua crying just now." Li Xin came in and said to Gu Qingqing who was about to wash the dishes.
Gu Qingqing believed it to be true, waved her hand and ran towards the east wing.
Sanhua did wake up, but she didn't cry. She looked around with her eyes wide open.
"Daxin, this kid, how could our Sanhua cry? We just woke up... Hey, hey, hey, come on, why can't you help praising me?"
Sanhua, who had not cried at first, felt wronged when she saw her mother come in. Her little mouth pouted and she started to cry.
"Oh my, oh my, how aggrieved I am, the golden beans are falling down for free. Okay, okay, mommy is back, mommy will hug me! Did you poop?"
Gu Qingqing lowered her head and sniffed the diaper. The smell of lactic acid that hit her face made her use her hands as a fan while laughing, "So it's because I pooped and no one cares about me, right? It's okay, it will be fine soon."
I held Sanhua in a basin with some warm water, then took out the cotton diaper from her open-crotch pants, wiped her clean with her special towel for washing her butt, put on a new diaper, and then started to feed her.
Sanhua became more energetic the more he ate, and when he was full, he turned his head to look outside.
Gu Qingqing had some free time today, so she wrapped her in a small quilt and carried her out of the house.
When she went to the kitchen again, she saw Daxin and Dahua washing dishes together.
Dahua heard the noise and turned around. Seeing her mother coming in, she hurriedly asked, "Sanhua is really awake. Sanhua, wait until I'm done. I'll hold you."
Gu Qingqing was looking at Li Xin, who didn't dare to look at her, lowered his head and forced himself to be busy. She knew why Li Xin had just acted, but some bad habits had to be corrected in the bud.
Even if the intention is good.
So Gu Qingqing said seriously, "Daxin, this will not happen again. No matter what you want to do or what you want to achieve in the future, you can't lie, understand?"
Li Xin paused while washing the dishes, looked at Gu Qingqing timidly, and whispered, "I know, Auntie."
"Well, then you guys go wash up, I'll carry Sanhua to find his father."
Dahua from the kitchen saw her mother walking away, so she asked Li Xin fiercely, "Did you lie to your mother?"
Li Xin looked at the little girl who was not even as tall as him and pretended to be fierce, and couldn't help laughing, "Well, I just came in and didn't want my aunt to wash the dishes, so I said Sanhua was crying, but in fact I didn't know whether Sanhua was crying or not."
Li Xin was honest and didn't want to hide it from Dahua, so he told it out loud.
When Dahua heard about this, she let out a long "Oh", thought for a moment and said, "Next time you can say Sanhua is awake."
Li Xin was a little afraid, but he still asked, "If I tell you Sanhua hasn't woken up, Auntie will be angry again."
Dahua looked at him and sighed, then said maturely, "You're stupid. Sanhua wakes up once in the morning and once at noon, especially in the morning when she doesn't sleep very deeply. Many times she would be sleeping, but she would know that it was her mother who came in, and then she would open her eyes. If you say Sanhua is crying, her mother wouldn't even need to enter the room to know whether Sanhua is crying or not."
After hearing this, Li Xin's eyes instantly lit up and he became eager to try again.
Gu Qingqing was originally planning to go to the study in the front yard with Sanhua in her arms, but she accidentally glanced towards the children and instantly felt a rush of blood to her head.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you bastards doing?"
"Haha, mom, we are worried about the big black-belt mouse."
"Aunt, do they look like stars, twinkling when I wear them on my body?" Xiaoyang seemed very happy too.
Dahei finally saw the hostess and was sniffing in grievance.
It is said that children's creativity is unlimited. Gu Qingqing looked at the cockleburs on Dahei's body, but isn't this too wasteful for the dog?
"All of you..." Gu Qingqing originally wanted to ask the children to pick the cockleburs off Dahei's body, but then she thought that the children might not know how to control their strength, so she changed her words and said, "Wash your hands and go to sleep. When I come back, I will see who is not sleeping and spank them."
