It's so cold today and the children are so young, Lian Xiaomin can't just give them a bath in the house.
Especially since your body is so dirty, you need to wash it thoroughly.
But she had a solution: go to a public bath! All she needed was a bath ticket.
It's like this in Northeast China. In winter, as long as the company issues you a bath ticket, you can take the ticket to the bathhouse to take a bath.
She also has some, they are all sold on the black market. Some people use this ticket to exchange for things. It was given to her by Sun Xuefeng.
It was of no use in the first place, but now it's being used.
Yunlai had a head injury and couldn't take a shower, so he just wiped it himself in the room. Lian Xiaomin took the other five children and headed to the bathhouse.
She used two woven bags and filled them with new clothes. The children were small, so she took the whole set and carried them in two bags.
A string of smaller ones followed behind her, and she felt like...Sun Wukong.
When she arrived at the state-owned public bathhouse on Liangzhanqian Street, she paid for the bath ticket. She didn't need to go in, as there was a bath scrubbing service, so she just had to pay the money.
I paid for the bathing expenses of all five children.
Six-year-old Xiao Huzi and Sheng Lai were led in by a male bath attendant, who also helped carry a woven bag containing new clothes, towels and soap.
She specially gave the master two big apples and asked the uncle to help wash the child and put on clothes for him, and to discard the old ones.
The other party happily agreed and put her at ease.
In the same way, he found a female bath attendant, paid her money, quietly gave her two big apples, and asked her to help wash and take care of Hehua, Lanlan, and the four-year-old Xinghua.
All done! Just wait outside.
After about an hour and a half, the little ones came out one after another. Wow, they were all clean and tidy. It was awesome.
No longer five little beggars~
The female bath attendant was particularly envious of such a young child for having such a beautiful sweater to wear, and kept asking Lian Xiaomin where she bought the wool.
Hehe, Lanlan finally got what she wanted. Not only did she wear the red cotton-padded jacket her brother promised her, but she also got a red turtleneck sweater and woolen pants. She was so beautiful!
With a small round face like an apple, her smile turned into a flower and she kept thanking her sister.
"It's okay, Lanlan. Your brother Yunlai said that all the money should be charged to his account. It's considered that he bought it for you!"
In fact, to Lian Xiaomin, this matter is of no importance at all, but Yunlai is so strong-willed, so let it be.
It’s okay to let the children know how good their brother is.
Lotus was wearing a dark blue cotton jacket and trousers with a dark pink sweater and trousers underneath. She was so excited that she couldn't speak clearly!
He was originally the most articulate child...
Xiao Xinghua was also wearing red inside and out, exactly like Sister Lanlan. The little girl's hair was a little long, so she would go home and braid it into a sky-high braid, which would definitely be very cute.
After the hair of the three girls including Lian Xiaomin was dry, the two boys were also washed and came out. The hairdresser even gave them two short flat heads for free.
Boys are naughty, so their cotton coats, sweaters and trousers should all be dark-colored and stain-resistant.
Each of them changed into cotton shoes and no longer needed single shoes.
Finally, Lian Xiaomin put on woolen hats and cotton gloves for each of them, and took the five new babies home.
When I got home, I saw Yunlai was already fast asleep.
Lian Xiaomin went in alone, carried a large basin of water out of the house, took out the old clothes in the sack and threw them away, and closed the door to prevent the little kid from disturbing them.
"Brother Yunlai needs to rest. He has a head injury. Don't shake him. Remember? Let's go to the west room first. The east room needs to be cleaned. It's too dirty."
These five children are more obedient than the other. After all, they had such a hard life before, but now it is like they are in heaven. They cherish their sister very much and want to listen to her very much, for they are afraid that she will drive them away.
The children took off their shoes and got on the kang. The room was heated up and it was very warm.
The oldest girl, Lotus, insisted on helping to clean the house. Lian Xiaomin took some things from the closet in the west room and went to the east room with Lotus.
First, put some of the rags on the ground into sacks and throw them away.
After all, we were little beggars in the past and we always had to pick up rags...some of the rags were left here, but fortunately not much.
Take off the quilt covers, mattress covers and pillow covers for the four sets of bedding and pillows on the kang.
I replaced it with a new one. This living lotus was done very well, so I gave it to her to replace one by one.
Put the dirty ones into a sack, which can be quietly put away and washed in the washing machine later.
The kang mat was also wiped, and all the cabinets in the house were wiped. Wow~ I was busy all this time until the sun went down, and finally every corner of the house was clean.
Let's keep four sets of bedding and four quilts in the east room. The five children can continue to sleep here. It's not crowded anyway.
Let Yunlai recuperate alone and don't disturb him. Concussion is not like other diseases and requires rest.
Lotus said, "Sister, let me make dinner. What do you want to eat?"
Lian Xiaomin thought to herself, apart from the staple food, we only have a few cabbages, what else can I eat, haha.
"Cook a pot of rice. Cook more. Two bowls per person. It doesn't matter if there are more. I'll go to the state-owned restaurant and order a few dishes."
Lotus nodded obediently and got off the kang to cook.
Lian Xiaomin went out alone and pulled the cart out.
I went out for a walk and came back twenty minutes later with a cart full of stuff.
Even though the children are small, they can eat a lot. There are six of them in total, and they eat to their heart's content, so the food is consumed very quickly.
On the car were several bags of food, two baskets of eggs totaling 100 eggs, and three chickens, all of which were taken from the frozen warehouse and did not need to be packed up.
