"Yes, you wash separately." Lin Shuang said with a smile.
Several of the kids have used the shower gel and know how to use it. They like using it very much and smell good after taking a shower.
Lin Shuang was sitting outside in a daze. Now that she was alone, she missed her parents a little.
After all the children had finished washing, Lin Shuang also went to take a shower. She boiled a large pot of water and asked everyone to wash their hair. There was still strong sunshine, so they could dry their hair in the sun and it would dry quickly.
"Mom, you smell good too." Xiao Jingyu sat directly next to Lin Shuang and hugged Lin Shuang's arm with his little hands.
Lin Shuang smiled and scratched Xiao Jingyu's nose, "You are also a sweet-smelling little cub."
"Mom~" Xiao Jingyu lowered his head shyly. He never thought that he could experience the feeling of maternal love. He felt that his current life was pretty good.
The children nearby also felt that the current days were really warm.
"Let's go to the kitchen to make cold noodles." Lin Shuang saw that the sun had already set in the west and it was getting late.
Xiao Jingyu jumped up and went to the kitchen, looking behind him as he walked. The joy on his face made the other kids catch up with him with smiles on their faces.
Lin Shuang felt that raising a few children like this was not a bad idea.
Wait, why would I have such an idea? Lin Shuang was a little surprised at her own thoughts. It had only been a few days and she already felt a little reluctant.
Lin Shuang felt that such feelings should not exist, so she quickly dismissed them from her mind and continued to follow their pace.
Lin Shuang first poured out the clear water on the top of the wooden barrel, stirred the remaining white water, boiled water in a pot, scooped a spoonful of starch water into the round plate, steamed it, and put it into cold water and took it out.
Repeat this operation, and when all the starch water is used up, start cutting the cold skin and making the sauce.
Xiao Jingyu watched Lin Shuang mixing the cold noodles. The sour and spicy smell had already drifted into the noses of the four kids. Seeing the collision of the red chili oil and the white cold noodles, their taste buds were immediately stimulated.
Even the relatively calm Xiao Ce was watching eagerly from the side. Lin Shuang looked at the children with a feeling of eagerness, feeling a little proud in her heart. The smile on the corner of her mouth revealed that Lin Shuang was in a good mood at the moment.
"Okay, everyone, come eat and see if it suits your appetite."
As soon as Lin Shuang finished speaking, the four kids immediately picked up the bowls in front of them.
"Mom, what a delicious delicacy this is! It's sour and spicy, and it tastes cool." Xiao Jingyu couldn't help but exclaimed when he took the first bite.
The other children didn't talk much, and the shadows of their chopsticks were almost visible.
After everyone finished eating, Lin Shuang mixed the remaining cold noodles and put them in several bowls.
"Mom, it seems that Uncle Dazhu's family still has two bowls that have not been returned to us." Xiao Ce looked at the cold noodles and suddenly remembered that Li Dazhu still had a bowl that he had not returned.
Lin Shuang also remembered this matter and planned to visit Li Dazhu's house later.
"Well, we'll stop by and take a look later."
After filling several bowls, there was still one bowl left, so Lin Shuang put it in the cupboard.
Just as I was about to go out, I suddenly heard someone calling me at the door.
Xiao Ce was the first to go out and take a look.
"Sister, are you home? I'll bring you the dishes." Li Dazhu and Li Dabao stood outside the yard gate.
"Uncle Dazhu, what's the matter?" Xiao Ce walked to the gate of the courtyard and asked, but did not open the door.
Li Dazhu's face flushed slightly, and he felt embarrassed. He scratched his head and said, "Xiao Ce, I'm here to return your bowl. It's my fault. I forgot about it and only remembered it now."
When Xiao Ce saw the two bowls in Li Dazhu's hands, he looked back and saw Lin Shuang had already come out with a few children.
Xiao Nanxin was a little afraid of Li Dabao who was standing next to Li Dazhu. After taking a look at him, he grabbed the corner of Lin Shuang's clothes with timidity in his eyes.
Lin Shuang felt the weight of the corner of her clothes, lowered her head to look at Xiao Nanxin, and gently patted Xiao Nanxin's back.
Li Dazhu, who was standing opposite, knew that this was what his boy had done. "Dabao, apologize to Nan Xin and Jing Yu. If you do this again, I will break your legs."
Li Dazhu's face looked bad and fierce, which scared Li Dabao.
Li Dabao trembled all over and walked up to Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Nanxin. "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. I won't bully you anymore."
After saying that, he still looked at the two of them. Xiao Nanxin and Xiao Jingyu were at a loss. They pursed their lips, not knowing what to say, and looked at Lin Shuang as if asking for help.
Li Dabao looked at them in silence, feeling a little depressed, as if this feeling was also quite uncomfortable.
Lin Shuang glanced at Li Dabao, and there was no arrogance in her eyes anymore, only clear stupidity.
"You can accept his apology or not." Lin Shuang said to the two children.
Not all apologies are forgivable.
Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Nanxin were both a little bit unbelievable that their stepmother really cared about their feelings.
Xiao Jingyu hesitated for a while, glanced at Li Dabao, and his eyebrows were wrinkled like a caterpillar.
He said awkwardly: "Will you bully other children in the future?"
Xiao Jingyu just wanted to know whether Li Dabao apologized and stopped bullying them because of his father's violence, or whether he really knew that he was wrong.
If he truly realizes his mistake and won't do it again, then I will forgive him. Daddy once said that no one is perfect.
Li Dabao's eyes lit up, "I really know I was wrong. I won't bully others again."
"Then I will forgive you. I hope you will keep your word." Xiao Jingyu looked at Li Dabao with a serious face and a serious tone.
Li Dabao nodded heavily and said, "I will keep my word." After saying that, Li Dabao looked at Xiao Nanxin.
Xiao Nanxin said softly: "I forgive you, but you can't regret it." After saying that, Xiao Nanxin hid behind Lin Shuang and raised a fist.
"I mean what I say." There was a glimmer in Li Dabao's eyes. This feeling was different from before.
Lin Shuang was watching this scene from the side. A child’s first teacher is his parents, and words and deeds really have a great influence. She glanced at Li Dazhui, thinking that perhaps he was the one who would guide Li Dabao onto the right path.
"Xiao Ce, go get some cold noodles from the kitchen cupboard." After Lin Shuang said that, Xiao Ce went.
"Stepmother." Xiao Ce held the cold noodles in his hand. He probably already knew what his stepmother was going to do.
"Brother Dazhu, this is the new food I made. You and Dabao can try it together."
Lin Shuang felt that Li Dazhu's attitude was undoubtedly a gesture of goodwill and an attempt to win back Li Dabao. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, Li Dabao seemed to have become a different person. Even Lin Shuang had to praise his good tactics.
