Bi Qiaoan, feeling both helpless and amused, tapped An'an's warm little nose and said in a gentle, doting tone, "All you think about is food!"
The two babies giggled and laughed, showing no fear.
Bi Qiaoan stepped out of the bathroom and flashed into her spatial dimension. She took out two baby bottles, washed them clean, heated a pot of spiritual spring water, and finally added fruit pieces to dissolve them.
To save time, she chilled the bottles with cold water. Once they were at a suitable temperature, she left the space with the two bottles.
"Little darlings, the sweet and sour fruit tea is here!" Bi Qiaoan called out, noticing that the two children's eyes were a little dazed.
Shen Yanming quickly took the bottles and put them into the mouths of the two babies. An'an and Nuannuan drank them instinctively.
"She's sleepy!" Shen Yanming said, picking An'an up and letting Bi Qiao'an look after Nuannuan first.
I wiped him clean, changed him into his pajamas, and tucked him into bed. The little guy tossed aside his bottle and fell asleep.
Shen Yanming reacted quickly, picking up the baby bottle and storing it in his spatial storage. Luckily, Bi Qiaoan hadn't filled it with much fruit tea, otherwise it would have spilled all over the bed.
Even sitting in the warm water, Nuannuan couldn't stand it anymore. She pointed at her little milk bag, stretched out her arms, and wanted a hug.
Bi Qiaoan took the baby bottle from her hand and put it into her spatial storage. Then she dried her off and changed her clothes.
After the two children fell asleep in bed, the couple finally had time to tidy themselves up.
I took off my half-dry, dirty clothes and let the warm water flow over them...
As the couple tidied themselves up and stepped out of the bathroom, they realized that it was already dark.
Outside, there was still thunder and lightning, and even strong winds.
The couple exchanged a glance and immediately understood each other's thoughts.
Shen Yanming called his brothers: "Are you all done washing up?"
"They're all done washing up. They're all holed up at Old Ji's house playing cards."
"Come on up, I'll make you some ginger and brown sugar water to warm you up."
"No need, we're all grown men, we're not that fragile."
"We have to take care of Wanwan! Stop talking nonsense and get up here. Do you think the house is short of places for you guys to play cards?"
"Okay, okay, I'll go up now!"
Zhang Heping hung up the phone and then brought a few people to Old Shen's house.
While Shen Yanming was on the phone, Bi Qiaoan went to the kitchen. She just finished putting the pot on the stove and turning on the heat.
The ginger was from this space; it had a strong pungent flavor, but its effects were ordinary. Unlike the ginger imbued with spiritual energy, which was immediately recognizable as extraordinary upon tasting.
After the fruit tea incident, Bi Qiaoan was afraid to give them good food casually, for fear of exposing herself.
However, she still added a little bit of spiritual spring water to the pot. Not much, just enough for one bottle cap, it was really hard to detect.
Because there wasn't much water, it boiled quickly. Bi Qiaoan added some ginger slices and a large spoonful of brown sugar.
Once it's cooked, the spicy aroma mixed with the scent of brown sugar fills everyone's nostrils.
The men were somewhat disgusted, but remembering the fruit tea they had enjoyed that evening, they dared not say a word. They silently picked up their cups, blew on them to cool them down, and drank them down in one gulp.
The taste was alright, and it left my stomach feeling warm after drinking it, but it didn't have the same comforting feeling as fruit tea. This shows that fruit tea is a rare and wonderful thing.
Li Zhaozhao and Li Wanwan looked at Zhang Heping, who was trembling with fear. He silently vowed to bring Lao Ji to the same side, so that the siblings wouldn't steal the good stuff from him.
Each of them had their own thoughts. Shen Yanming glanced out the window and said to Li Zhaozhao, "Let's stay here tonight. It's raining heavily outside, and it's not safe to go back."
Li Zhaozhao nodded: "I've already called home, and Lao Ji said the same thing."
Shen Yanming smiled and asked, "Did you eat your fill this afternoon? Would you like a snack tonight?"
Li Zhaozhao touched his stomach: "That's enough, it's still bloated, I can't eat anymore."
Zhang Heping's eyes lit up: "Old Shen, if we're having an extra meal, what should we eat?"
"Steamed buns, please!" Shen Yanming said deliberately.
Zhang Heping was greatly disappointed. "Never mind then, I'm already full."
Ji Kangyong slapped him on the head: "You glutton, you never get enough to eat!"
Zhang Heping said, feeling wronged, "I just wanted to eat something nice!"
Shen Yanming smiled without saying a word. There are good ones, but it's not appropriate to bring them out again. There's no other way; this is the only option.
"Alright, aren't you guys bored? Let's play cards for a bit, then go home and sleep!"
Ji Kangyong's suggestion was unanimously approved, and everyone gathered around the coffee table to play games.
Time flew by, and around 10 p.m., everyone got up to say goodbye.
Shen Yanming didn't try to stop them, since they only had one bed at home, and if they kept someone, they would have to sleep on the sofa.
However, he still asked, "What are your plans?"
Ji Kangyong smiled and said, "I have to be on duty early tomorrow morning, so I've arranged for Wanwan and Zhaozhao to stay with Heping."
Zhang Heping nodded: "Originally, I said that the three of us men would go to Lao Ji's place and Wanwan would stay at my house alone. But they insisted that the little girl would be scared, so in the end, this is how it turned out."
Shen Yanming looked at his two brothers and smiled meaningfully, while at the same time shedding a tear of sympathy for someone.
He patted Li Zhaozhao's arm: "Come with me for a moment?"
Li Zhaozhao, not understanding why, followed Shen Yanming to the storage room.
Comrade Shen moved a box from the corner, wiped the dust off with a rag, opened it, and the small box inside almost blinded Li Zhaozhao.
"My God, so many! That's great, Lao Shen! Are they all for me?" Li Zhaozhao looked around excitedly.
Shen Yan rolled his eyes: "Do you really need so much!"
Li Zhaozhao's expression turned serious: "Comrade Shen Yanming, you cannot doubt your brother's abilities. Although I can prove it to you, I would rather demonstrate it to my wife."
Shen Yanming gave Li Zhaozhao a strange look, took two steps back, pointed at the box and said, "Take as much as you need, it's up to you!"
Li Zhaozhao frowned, feeling that the other party seemed to have misunderstood something. But before he could figure it out, he was pleasantly surprised by Shen Yanming's words.
She jumped onto the little umbrella and said happily, "You said it! You can't go back on your word!"
Shen Yanming nodded and pulled a black plastic bag from the side to him: "Hurry up and pack it up, pack it yourself. I don't know when I'll be going back to the guard unit with my wife tomorrow, so I'll feel at ease giving it to you today."
"Yeah, yeah, I have to go home early tomorrow morning to have a meal with my parents, and then I have to go back to work. My wife has more freedom than me; she can rest until the day after tomorrow."
Shen Yanming chuckled, "I never would have guessed you'd become such a henpecked husband."
"Sigh, I was just young and impetuous back then. As you grow up, you become more sensible. Besides, my wife is so good, how could I bear to mess around outside?"
Even if he had many ex-girlfriends, it was all consensual, and he dated one at a time. There's really nothing to criticize!
