Chapter 23 Do you know how difficult it is to use water on the island?

Zhou Cheng's face turned red instantly. He bit his lower lip, his expression full of regret, but he was still young and not a bad person. He nodded and admitted his mistake.

"It's my fault! I shouldn't have wasted food!"

Seeing that he admitted it, Song Shi smiled.

"As for the second whip, why did I hold back? It was because you said I was mean and would hit you and your brother! Then I want to ask you, which eye of yours saw me hitting Zhou Wei and Xin Xin?"

Zhou Cheng's eyes widened suddenly, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he seemed to feel that she didn't really do anything.

But he still grumbled in dissatisfaction: "Of course you won't do that now, but I believe that one day your fox tail will be exposed!"

Zhou Tingyue yelled angrily: "Bullshit!"

Song Shiwei smiled brightly: "Okay, I welcome your supervision. When I beat you and your brothers and sisters, you can say I am a mean person! Because time will prove everything! Right?"

Zhou Cheng pursed his lips and lowered his head.

What she said seems to make sense...

The farce is over, the fight has been fought and the talk has been done.

If the noise continues, the food she worked so hard to prepare will get cold.

Hurry up and invite everyone to have dinner.

Zhou Tingyue glared at Zhou Cheng and Zhou Lin fiercely.

Zhou Cheng could only sit down obediently.

Zhou Wei and Xinxin were immediately delighted when they saw it. They each took a pair of chopsticks and started to eat heartily.

Smelling the fragrance in the air, their stomachs were already filled with hunger!

Zhou Lin was reluctant at first, just like Zhou Cheng, but after taking a bite of the cake and tasting the dish, he instantly forgot everything.

Song Shiwei looked at Zhou Cheng who was just taking small bites of the cake and drinking the rice soup. He didn't eat a single bite of the food, so he didn't pay any attention to him and let him do as he pleased.

After all, who can feel comfortable after being hit by a belt?

This child has his own ideas in his mind. It will take time to make him truly change.

Now he dislikes her, and no matter what she does, he will try to go against her.

Anyway, the road ahead is long and she still has plenty of time!

After dinner, Zhou Cheng obediently took his younger brothers and sisters to wash the dishes.

Zhou Tingyue looked at his back and couldn't help but frowning.

He didn't expect that his children would have such a big reaction after he got married.

As a result, he felt a little guilty. One reason was that he thought too simply and did not communicate well with these children.

Another reason was that he felt guilty towards Song Shiwei. His condition was not good to begin with, and these children did not accept her.

From Zhou Cheng's attitude towards her, it is not difficult to see how much he resists her in his heart!

He was a rough man and had been a soldier all his life. Although it was not his first time to get married, he had never encountered a situation like this before.

When he first led these little guys, he also crossed the river step by step, feeling his way across the stones and wading out.

He didn't know whether it was right or not, but he managed to raise all these children safely.

He also tried his best to teach them what was right and what was wrong.

If something is right, he will encourage it, and if something is wrong, he will punish it if it is necessary!

For example, before dinner, he was really furious when he saw Zhou Cheng not only wasting food but also scolding Song Shiwei!

I even wondered if I had really taught them badly.

How did it become like this?

Song Shiwei let him struggle alone, but she was now very fond of Xinxin.

This little girl is very cute.

It might be because Zhou Tingyue was a rough man, and since she was just a little girl after all, he had never given her a proper bath.

There was a circle of dust on the neck.

Song Shiwei heated some water, closed the door, and washed her carefully.

She also used the White Cat soap she brought back from Beijing.

Zhou Xinxin was so happy, it was the first time she had such a fragrant bath!

After washing, you will feel fragrant and smooth!

Song Shiwei was so happy when he saw the little girl changing into clean clothes.

Zhou Xinxin ran out happily.

"Dad, brother, can you smell me? Do I smell good? Mom washed me with scented soap! I smell so good!"

When Zhou Wei heard this, he immediately ran over curiously and sniffed her.

"It smells really good! I want to take a bath that smells so good too!"

Zhou Lin, who was standing by, immediately kicked him.

"Why are you washing? You're a boy, not a little girl! Why do you have to smell so good?"

Zhou Lin, who was kicked by him, rubbed his butt in grievance.

"What's wrong with boys? Boys can also be clean and smell good!"

Hearing his words, Song Shi smiled.

"Zhou Lin is right! Boys and girls, you must be clean. Otherwise, you will be dirty all day long. Not only will you be disliked by other kids, but you will also feel uncomfortable! You will be covered in dirty bacteria!"

Zhou Wei nodded immediately after hearing this!!

"Yes! Yes!"

But they are all three boys! Naturally, the responsibility of bathing them fell to Zhou Tingyue.

Zhou Tingyue naturally listens to his wife!

"Come on, go give me a bath! I'll give you a good scrub! Look how dirty you are!"

After he spoke, Zhou Cheng and Zhou Lin went to take a shower reluctantly even though they were reluctant.

After the shower, several children came out, all clean and fragrant.

Zhou Wei was so happy.

He kept lowering his head and sniffing his own body: "What a nice smell!"

"It smells so good! I'm going to take a shower every day from now on!"

As a result, just as he finished speaking, he was slapped hard on the back of his head by his second brother.

"Wash, wash, wash, what are you washing? Do you know how difficult it is to use water on our island?"

There was only one well dug in the family compound on the island, and everyone had to fetch water from the well every day and then carry it back home.

It is usually Zhou Tingyue who fetches water for their family.

To fill a tank of water, he needs to run four or five times.

After hearing what his second brother said, Zhou Lin stopped talking and lowered his head with a red face.

Song Shiwei hadn't thought of this. No wonder the children would rather get dirty than take a bath or wash their hands. It turned out that it was to make their dad work less hard!

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt very sorry for Zhou Tingyue.

Just today, I wasted half a tank of water just by cooking and taking a bath!

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was so difficult to get water here..."

Zhou Cheng and Zhou Lin were the most excited when they heard her apologize. They didn't expect her to admit her "mistake" on her own initiative. It was indeed different from what they imagined!

Zhou Cheng thought that she let them take a bath just because she thought they were too dirty, and she didn't care about his father's hard work at all!

Unexpectedly, she had no idea how difficult it was to use water on the island!

Zhou Tingyue quickly waved his hands.

"It's not hard, isn't it just carrying a few more buckets of water? This is much easier than my usual training! How can it be hard? Feel free to use it! Use as much as you want, and I'll get more when you're done!"

But Song Shiwei felt embarrassed after all.

Therefore, before going to bed at night, she only dared to take a basin of water and simply wash herself. After all, she had been sitting on the train and the ship for a whole day, and the smell of oil and smoke made her smell really unpleasant.
