Chapter 117 I want to take a shower and go to bed early
Wen Ci's face turned red, she could tell from his "ill intentions".
But my daughter is not young anymore. As she grows up day by day, I should gradually cultivate her ability to take care of herself.
After Xie Peizhou closed the bedroom door, Wen Ci changed her clothes, washed up in the bathroom, picked up the phone on the bedside table, and was about to search the Internet for ways to get children to sleep independently. Only then did she realize that her phone was actually turned on "flight mode".
She was stunned for a moment, canceled the flight mode, and opened the browser.
She never turns her phone to airplane mode before going to bed. Did Xie Peizhou touch her phone last night?
"Mommy!"
Wen Niannian, who had just come downstairs and was lying on the sofa in the living room watching "The Divine Chef Xiao Fugui," instantly shifted her gaze from "Little Eunuch Li" on the TV screen to Wen Ci's face. The little girl quickly climbed down from the sofa, put on her slippers, ran towards Wen Ci, and grabbed her hand. "Is your cold better? Does your head still hurt? Do you still have a fever? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Wen Ci looked at her daughter's innocent and caring eyes, and her heart softened. She was truly her little cotton fairy.
"Niannian, Mommy is fine now. Thank you for your concern."
Wen Ci said gently, but what really happened last night emerged in her mind. Her eyes were shy and her cheeks couldn't help but heat up.
"Mommy, your face is so red, your fever must not have gone down yet."
Wen Niannian looked at her blushing little face, the worry in her eyes deepened a little, and she took her hand and walked towards the sofa.
She first helped Wen Ci sit down, and just like Wen Ci had taken care of her in the past, she carefully covered her mother with a plush blanket, then trotted to the cabinet where the medicines were kept and took out a box of cold medicine.
"Mommy, I'll make you some cold medicine. Your fever will go away after you drink it."
Wen Ci touched her hot face. Her blush had nothing to do with a cold. "Niannian, no need. Mommy doesn't need to take cold medicine."
"No, if you have a cold you have to take medicine."
The little girl acted like an adult and said, "If you are sick, you must take medicine on time, and adults must also be obedient."
Wen Ci opened her mouth, not knowing what excuse to make.
Xie Peizhou, wearing an apron, walked out of the kitchen carrying a fragrant steak. He curled his lips and stopped Wen Niannian's movements in a gentle voice, "Xiao Nian, you can't take cold medicine on an empty stomach. Let your mommy eat first. After eating, measure the temperature with a thermometer. If she still has a fever, give her some more medicine, okay?"
Wen Niannian finally stopped and felt that what her uncle said made sense. "Okay, Mommy, then you can eat the steak first. The steak that my uncle fried is so delicious. I ate a big piece at noon!"
“It smells good.”
Wen Ci met Xie Peizhou's gentle gaze, her heartbeat quickened with shyness, but she had to admit that the steak smelled so good!
Besides, she had consumed too much energy last night, and now she could eat as much as a cow!
Xie Peizhou placed the dinner tray in the dining room and gentlemanly helped Wen Ci pull out the chair.
Wen Ci sat down, holding the knife and fork in her hands. The steak on the plate had been cut into small pieces suitable for eating. There was also a heart-shaped fried egg next to it, with a smiley face made of ketchup.
Wen Niannian stood at the dining table, pointing at the fried eggs and said, "The fried eggs I had at noon were not shaped like a heart, nor did they have a smiling face."
Xie Peizhou explained seriously, "Niannian, this is called a love lunch. I customized it specifically for your mommy. It represents my love for your mommy. When you find a boyfriend in the future, you have to find someone who is willing to customize a love lunch just for you, okay?"
Wen Niannian nodded, not quite understanding, and looked at Wen Ci greedily, "Can I have a bite?"
Wen Ci smiled, cut off a piece with a small fork and fed it to her daughter.
On the side, Xie Peizhou saw Wen Ci feed the first bite directly to his daughter, and a hint of sourness passed through his heart.
A little jealous.
But I tell myself over and over again that I should love everyone in my house.
If you love Wen Ci, you must love Wen Ci's daughter.
After feeding his daughter a bite, he concentrated on eating, completely unaware of someone's jealous expression.
Wen Ci ate up a large portion of steak cleanly.
After eating, Wen Niannian took Wen Ci's temperature, which was 37.2 degrees, very healthy.
So there is no need to take cold medicine.
After eating and resting for a while, Xie Peizhou received a call, said something briefly to Wen Ci, and went upstairs to the study.
He came out of the study about an hour later, with a sullen look on his face, as if someone had offended him.
"Are you okay?"
Wen Ci asked with concern.
Xie Peizhou's dark eyes softened as he looked at her. "It's okay, it's just a small matter. I've already taken care of it."
"Oh." Wen Ci saw this and didn't ask any more questions. She pounded her aching thigh and said, "Do you have anything else to do this afternoon? I'm planning to take Nian Nian to the mall. Do you want to come with us?"
"Okay." Xie Peizhou agreed immediately, "What do you want to buy?"
Wen Ci: "This is Nian Nian's first year back in China. I want her to experience the traditional New Year atmosphere. Didn't you also say that Yu Shui Bay is deserted? If I decorate it myself, it won't be so deserted anymore."
Half an hour later, the three arrived at the mall.
At the end of the year, the mall is crowded with people, especially the New Year goods area, where all kinds of red lanterns, couplets, and window decorations are dazzling and endless.
Wen Ci not only bought finished couplets and window decorations, but also bought semi-finished red paper. He planned to go home and take his daughter to do some handicrafts to experience the charm and fun of traditional art.
After selling the New Year’s goods, the three of them went upstairs to a chain brand doll store.
"Nian Nian, which doll do you like to sleep with? You can choose it yourself."
Wen Ci held her daughter's hand and half-knelt in front of her. She had already done some ideological work on the little girl at home. "You are a big kid now. After the New Year, you will go to the last year of kindergarten, and the year after that, you will enter the first grade. So you have to slowly learn to sleep alone. Which doll do you like? Mommy will buy it for you."
Xie Peizhou pushed the shopping cart and followed the mother and daughter. He heard the conversation between Wen Ci and her daughter. Happiness came too suddenly.
Will my daughter have to sleep alone starting tonight?
Then he can sleep in the same bed with Ah Ci openly every night? !
"Xiao Nian, look, this giraffe is pretty. It's so cute in yellow. You can hold it while you sleep."
"How about this green lamb? Do you like it?"
"There's also a big white goose, which I think is pretty good too."
Wen Ci looked at Xie Peizhou who suddenly became enthusiastic and felt that he was more like a salesman than a salesperson.
"I don't really like..."
But Xie Peizhou's recommendation obviously didn't hit Wen Niannian's heart. After searching for a long time, Wen Niannian saw a furry white rabbit with lop ears at the back of the shelf. Her dark eyes finally lit up and she looked at Wen Ci, "Mommy, I like this one."
Wen Ci hasn't spoken yet.
Xie Peizhou then said, "Hello, I'll pay the bill!"
After buying the lop-eared rabbit doll, Xie Peizhou and Wen Niannian were very excited on the way back to Yu Shui Bay.
Wen Niannian sat in the child safety seat in the back seat, her eyes fixed on the lop-eared rabbit sitting next to her, "Mommy, I want to take a bath early tonight and sleep with Ruanruan!"
Ruanruan is the name Nian Nian gave to the lop-eared rabbit.
Wen Ci smiled dotingly: "Yeah, okay."
Xie Peizhou was driving, and he glanced at the woman in the passenger seat through the rearview mirror. "Aci, me too. I want to take a shower and go to bed early tonight."
Wen Ci: “…”
