Su Le, Li Zichen and the other two walked into the room. The two little guys waited expertly for Su Le to take out the cleaning tools.
Su Le took out a rag from his bag and handed it to the two of them, saying, "It's the same as before. All the tables and windowsills are your responsibility."
"Okay!" the two children responded loudly, and then quickly ran to fetch water and get to work. Li Chuyang rolled up his sleeves, looking very motivated, and Li Xueyao was not to be outdone, her pigtails swinging happily.
Su Le took out a broom and mop from the room and handed them to Li Zichen: "I'll sweep the floor and you mop."
"Just sit down, I can do it myself." Li Zichen pushed her onto the chair that Li Chuyang had just wiped.
"Mom, let us do it. You've worked so hard, just sit down and take a rest." Li Chuyang said to Su Le with a smile, holding a rag in his hand.
Li Xueyao also nodded vigorously and said, "Yes. Mom has worked the hardest."
Su Le's heart suddenly warmed. She had grown accustomed to Li Zichen's words, but the children's words still deeply touched her. She hadn't been with them for long, but their unwavering devotion to her was evident. Li Zichen's guidance was effective, and Yao Cuifang had always followed their instructions in raising the children, which had transformed her significantly.
Su Le silently raised his head, closed his eyes, and then smiled as he praised and affirmed their cleaning work. The two children worked more enthusiastically and even began to compete with each other secretly.
Soon, the cleaning work was completed. The two children were exhausted and out of breath, but they still insisted on hanging their clothes in the closet. Then they collapsed on the sofa, spread their limbs casually, and sat down to rest.
Su Le washed some fruit for them and put it on the table, saying, "Are you tired? Eat something quickly. Dad will make the quilt for you later, and you can take a nap first."
"Okay." The two children answered weakly, sat up and ate one or two fruits, then continued to lie on the sofa.
Su Le walked into the room with a smile and assisted Li Zichen. He first made the quilts in the children's room. After that, the two little guys bent over, slowly moved into the room step by step, and fell asleep.
Su Le and Li Zichen then began to put on their own quilts, lay on the bed to catch their breath for a while, and then fell asleep in each other's arms.
At night, Xu Jiaojiao and Su Nuoyi came and knocked on the door, and the four people in the house slowly woke up. Li Chuyang opened the door with sleepy eyes, yawned and shouted loudly: "Aunt, Sister Yiyi."
Xu Jiaojiao looked at his adorable expression as he rubbed his eyes and couldn't help but laugh, "Did you just wake up?"
"That's right, we went to bed after cleaning up." Li Chuyang responded as he quickly returned to his room, changed his clothes quickly, and then walked to the sink. He scooped up water with both hands and splashed it on his face, trying to wake himself up as soon as possible.
The other three also took action, changed their clothes in an orderly manner, washed their faces carefully, and tried their best to wake themselves up completely from their sleep. Only then did they go out with Xu Jiaojiao and the others.
The six people still came to the store. When the woman saw them, she led them to their seats familiarly and asked enthusiastically, "Is it the same as at noon?"
Li Zichen waved his hand gently and said, "We want six bowls of beef ramen."
The woman smiled and nodded, hurried into the kitchen, told the chef what they ordered, and then came out to continue serving other guests.
Before long, the noodles were served. Li Chuyang and Li Xueyao eagerly puffed on the steaming noodles before wolfing them down. Cleaning was physically demanding, and they were already starving. Seeing this, Su Le and the other three also began to devour their food.
The two children couldn't finish their noodles, so they pushed them in front of Li Zichen. Li Xueyao blinked her smart eyes and started bargaining: "Dad, since you ate our noodles, shouldn't you pay us a little?"
Su Le couldn't help but smile and looked at Li Zichen. Li Zichen paused while eating noodles and blurted out without hesitation: "If I don't eat it, you will waste it. Wasting food is extremely shameful. Besides, you gave it to me voluntarily, I didn't ask for it from you."
Li Xueyao pouted loudly upon hearing this and fell silent. Li Chuyang watched silently as Li Zichen used his chopsticks to stuff noodles into his mouth.
Su Nuoyi couldn't finish the noodles either, and looked at his mother Xu Jiaojiao expectantly. But Xu Jiaojiao said, "I can't finish them either, and you see, I'm useless. It's shameful to waste them. Do you hear me?"
Su Nuoyi had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue eating. Seeing her reluctant look, Su Le hurriedly stopped Su Nuoyi and said gently, "Okay, okay, don't eat if you can't finish it. It's not always wasted. Don't fill your stomach."
Su Nuoyi looked at Xu Jiaojiao and saw that there was still some noodles left in Xu Jiaojiao's bowl. He then put down his chopsticks and muttered softly, "Then I'll order less noodles next time."
Su Le smiled and nodded. The five of them waited patiently for Li Zichen to finish eating. After Xu Jiaojiao paid the bill, they strolled around together to help digest the food.
In the morning, the group, full of energy and vigor, headed to other stores. After a quick breakfast, they enthusiastically headed to Pingyao Ancient City. Su Le gazed up at the towering city walls and said with deep emotion, "This is one of the four most well-preserved ancient cities in our country."
Sunoy took it all in mind with full concentration. The six of them walked around the city wall with great interest, and then went up to the city wall to watch happily.
In the afternoon, Su Le took them to another place, Mount Wutai. The three children climbed up with their tenacious perseverance and found a place to sit down and rest for a while when they were tired.
The six people looked at the temple in front of them. Su Le took a breath and said to the four people who were panting, "This is the first of the four famous Buddhist mountains in our country. You can take a good look at it. Let's take some photos. We are climbing the main peak, Beitai Yedou Peak, which is the highest peak of Mount Wutai and is known as the roof of North China."
Xu Jiaojiao was so tired that she could only nod slightly, leaning weakly against the fence, breathing heavily.
Su Nuoyi asked curiously, "What is the Roof of North China?"
Su Le smiled and patiently explained, "The Roof of North China refers to the highest point in the mountains of North China, much like the highest part of a roof. Our current location is the highest point in the mountains of North China, hence the name Roof of North China. It highlights the supreme position of Beitai Yedou Peak in the mountains of North China. The Qingliang Mountain Records states, 'Looking up from below, its summit seems to be touching and rubbing against the handle of the Big Dipper, hence the name.' This means that when looking up from Beitai Yedou Peak, its summit appears to be touching and rubbing against the handle of the Big Dipper, hence the name Yedou Peak."
