Fu Ting also enjoyed the meal very much.

As the saying goes, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Yesterday's braised fish stew, today's braised chicken and nourishing chicken soup, coupled with Ruan Jiaojiao's sweet "My man," had Fu Ting completely captivated.

He now understands why those incompetent rulers died in the arms of their wives and concubines; who could resist such temptations?

Since work hours couldn't be delayed, Ruan Jiaojiao didn't keep Fu Ting away for too long.

After Fu Ting finished eating, she secretly patted his firm, big buttocks, then happily took the two little ones home.

Fu Ting: "..."

He didn't know what words to use to describe his current feelings.

His darling is great in every way, except for one little quirk: she likes to touch his butt.

Fu Ting didn't understand either. That thing was hard, and Ruan Jiaojiao's hands were delicate. Wouldn't it hurt when the two touched?

But Ruan Jiaojiao just liked it; not only did she like it, she wanted to touch it all the time.

In the end, Fu Ting had no choice but to let her have her way.

After bringing her two little ones home, Ruan Jiaojiao cuddled them and took a nap.

Xiao Bao dreamt again that Ruan Jiaojiao had reverted to her old ways, constantly beating and scolding him and his brother, and saying that they were a burden, and that she wouldn't have given birth to them if her health allowed it!

Xiao Bao woke up crying and found that Ruan Jiaojiao was indeed not sleeping next to him and Da Bao. He was so sad that he burst into tears.

Da Bao was woken up by him and anxiously asked him what was wrong.

Xiao Bao told Da Bao about his dream, and then received a look of "concern for the mentally challenged" from Da Bao.

He pointed to the blanket on the bed and said, "We're sleeping on a thick sheet of paper now, which means your dream won't come true. Dreams are always the opposite of reality, you know?"

Xiao Bao nodded blankly, still reeling from the terrifying dream.

At this moment, Ruan Jiaojiao pushed open the door and came in, saying to the two of them, "There is sugar water on the table. Drink it and come out quickly. Mommy is going to give you two little rascals a good bath."

Da Bao and Xiao Bao responded and obediently got out of bed. They found two bowls of warm water left by Ruan Jiaojiao on the table, with white sugar in them. They tasted sweet and delicious.

This is what it feels like to have a tingling sensation! This feeling is just so wonderful!

After they finished drinking, they went outside. They discovered that Ruan Jiaojiao had already cleaned the yard spotlessly while they were sleeping!

The weeds were all cleared away, and the dust and stones were swept together and piled in the corner.

All three rooms were clean and bright.

Mom also sprinkled water on the ground to increase the humidity in the house so that they wouldn't be choked by the flying dust.

"Hurry up and come over, or the water will get cold!"

Ruan Jiaojiao was holding a worn but clean white towel to greet them. Behind her, a large vat was filled with bathwater at just the right temperature.

Da Bao and Xiao Bao usually bathe in the river, but now that winter is approaching, the river water is icy cold, and the two little ones haven't had a bath for almost a month.

Fu Ting was exhausted from supporting his family and was a rough man, so he naturally didn't care whether Da Bao and Xiao Bao had taken a bath or were dirty.

Xiao Bao skipped over, and was quickly stripped naked by Ruan Jiaojiao. Xiao Bao shyly covered his little cow and said, "Mommy is a bad girl!"

Da Bao tried to run away when he saw this, but it was too late.

He was grabbed by the back of his collar and easily pulled back by Ruan Jiaojiao.

Even if Da Bao were a little more precocious, he's still just a five-year-old toddler. Huo Yunshu, that little dog, isn't a match for Ruan Jiaojiao, let alone Da Bao, this little bean sprout.
