Chapter 232 Grown Up
Because Fu Yuling laughed, the atmosphere in the whole room immediately became different, and even a few children started laughing.
Fu Qi's eyes were a little sore. How long had it been before he saw the scene he had always longed for? He wanted his life to continue like this, with them always by his side.
"Stay here for today. I'll go get some more quilts."
Fu Qi couldn't stand such a sentimental scene and turned away in a panic.
Fu Yuling hooked He Qiu's nose and said, "Xiao Qiu, go get some clothes and take a shower."
As for herself, she went to the kitchen to see if there was any hot water.
He Qiu went into the room. Fu's mother had already prepared some clothes for them in case they had to stay here overnight.
He Wen and others who had nothing else to do followed Fu Yuling closely.
There was not much hot water in the kitchen, not enough. Fu Yuling wanted to get firewood, and He Wen was very sensible and took it for her.
"So good."
Fu Yuling pinched his face and praised him.
He Wen stayed where he was and didn't move for a long time. Only when Fu Yuling went to the other side to make a fire did he cover his face with his hands and become shy.
He An, who was standing next to him, noticed that he was looking strange, so he stood on tiptoe and poked the back of his hand.
"What are you doing?"
He Wen let go of his hand, confused.
He An looked soft and sticky, blinking with his head tilted.
"Brother, you are blushing!"
After being exposed, He Wen felt embarrassed.
Fu Yuling even looked over here. He Wen saw that everyone was looking at him, so he turned his back silently and walked out.
Fu Yuling shouted from behind, "Don't go too far."
He Wen did not respond and disappeared into the darkness until he could no longer be seen.
Fu Yuling put the firewood in. The flames flickered on her face, making her figure appear dim.
Her eyes fell on the window. The scenery outside was rusty and she could see leaves falling from the trees from time to time and being blown onto the window by the wind.
It’s winter now, and the Chinese New Year is not far away!
With emotion in her heart, He Xuan squatted beside her and imitated her in putting the firewood in. Then, she looked up at Fu Yuling with sparkling eyes, hoping to get Fu Yuling's praise.
Fu Yuling wanted to tease him, "Why are you looking at me, Xiaoxuan?"
She lowered her voice, "Xiaoxuan is already so old, he shouldn't need my help like Xiaoan, right?"
The word "help" instantly reminded He Xuan of herself standing in front of him without clothes, and her face turned red.
“You you you…”
He Xuan stared blankly with eyes wide open, unable to speak.
“······Shame on you!”
Finally, He Xuan uttered three words and left.
Okay, I’ve “offended” another one and left.
However, Fu Yuling did not reflect on his own behavior. Instead, he saw that the time was almost up and lifted the lid of the pot to look at the bubbling water.
When I felt it was ready, I went over there and took out the extra firewood.
Then I took the wooden bucket to fill it with water and began to prepare things for them to take a bath.
He An was confused as to why they all left one by one, but he was still very happy. He did not stick to Fu Yuling, but stood at the door by himself, playing the game of stepping on his own shadow, and had a lot of fun.
The light lengthened his shadow, and He An suddenly shouted Fu Yuling.
She turned around and saw He An standing not far away, pointing at his own shadow, looking very happy.
"Grown up!"
The shadow was elongated a lot, taller than him, which naturally made him think that it was what he would look like when he grew up.
