Chapter 406: The New Mom is a Little Busy



Seeing him drinking soup, Shen An Nian seemed not to hear what she said, and pursed her lips, "Don't you love me anymore?"

Qin Zhengqi: ...

How did it get to this point?

"Nonsense."

"I'm so miserable, and you don't care about me."

Qin Zhengqi sighed, "Just bear with it. You'll be out of confinement in half a month. I'll definitely boil some water for you to take a good bath then."

"I can't bear it any longer. Smell it yourself and see if I'm rotten."

"It's not rotten, it smells good."

This did not comfort her at all.

She doesn't buy it anymore. It's hard to fool her with just a few words.

"I don't want to take a bath. Go get some water so I can wipe myself."

Shen Anyian opened her eyes wide, looked at him pitifully, and grabbed his arms with both hands, "Can you please, husband, help me?"

Qin Zhengqi couldn't resist her coquettish behavior. After struggling for a moment, he nodded and agreed.

"Okay, I'll go out and take a look."

"Hubby, you are so good. I love you so much."

Qin Zhengqi: ...

Only by bringing her bath water can you deserve her love.

Qin Zhengqi carried the empty bowl out of the room and saw that there was no one in the kitchen, so he secretly lit a fire and heated water.

When he was carrying water into the main room, he happened to meet Qin's mother.

Mother Qin understood at a glance, "Is this water for Nian Nian?"

"Nian Nian is feeling unwell. I'm going to get some hot water to wipe her down."

"I told you not to take a bath during confinement, why didn't you listen?"

She took the basin from Qin Zhengqi and said, "You can't let Nian Nian wash like this. I'll go boil some mugwort water and you can use it to give her a bath."

Qin Zhengqi had no choice but to let her take the basin away.

Half an hour later, Qin's mother gave him the soaked mugwort water.

"Take a bath with this mugwort water, and dry yourself quickly after washing to avoid catching a cold."

"I understand. Thank you, Mom."

Shen An Nian had been waiting in the room for a long time. When he saw him, he asked, "What took you so long to come back?"

Seeing that the water he brought was dark and smelled like medicine, she asked, "What is this?"

"This is water soaked with mugwort leaves. Mother said bathing with this is good for your health."

Although she was a little disgusted by the smell, it was better than not being able to scrub it.

"Then I'll wipe my body from now on. You won't object, right?"

Qin Zhengqi thought for a moment and said, "It depends on the situation."

He wrung out the towel and said, "Take off your clothes and I'll help you dry yourself."

Just as he finished speaking, Lele, who was lying in the crib, suddenly made a sound. He took a look and met Lele's eyes, feeling inexplicably guilty.

Then he thought about it, his wife had difficulty moving around, so he helped her wipe her body. She was not trying to steal their mother, so there was nothing for him to feel guilty about.

Shen An Nian sighed, "The confinement period is too hard, it's really not a life for a human being."

Qin Zhengqi really had no way to deal with this matter, so he could only comfort her: "There is still half a month left, just bear with it."

What else could she do except endure it?

However, her efforts were rewarded. The two children had enough food and gradually gained weight.

Moreover, their facial features began to develop, changing day by day, and the appearance of the two children gradually became different.

The elder sister is more delicate, while the younger brother is more heroic.

My elder sister has a more cheerful personality, cries more often, and cries loudly.

The younger brother is calmer and cries less often. Even Qin's mother said that the child's personality is the same as his father's. He doesn't like to cry or make trouble, so he is less worrying.

During the day, Mrs. Lin and Qin's mother help take care of the children, and at night, Qin Zhengqi works with her. Although it is hard work for her, it is still within the tolerable range. Qin Zhengqi has lost weight.

Shen An Nian felt sorry for him because he was too tired, training during the day and taking care of the child at night, so she left most of her confinement meals for him.

On the day she left the confinement room, Shen Annian immediately asked Sister Lin to boil water and take a bath immediately.

She had been talking about this ever since she gave birth. Mrs. Lin knew how long she had been looking forward to taking a bath, so she went to find some mugwort, boiled it, and put it in a bucket to cool.

Shen An Nian saw that she had to let the water cool down after boiling it, and she couldn't wait any longer. She said, "How long do we have to wait? Can't we just add some cold water?"

"That won't do. You can't add cold water to wash the moxa leaves. Just wait a while, it will get cold soon."

Fine then, she would wait a little longer, there was no need to rush.

I haven't had a proper bath for a month. This time, Shen An Nian washed herself from head to toe, inside and out. Only then did she feel much fresher and more alive.

Who knew that as soon as I came out of the bathroom, I heard a heart-wrenching cry.

When she went in, she saw Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Qin holding the two children and coaxing them.

When the two children saw her, they burst into tears, feeling so aggrieved.

Shen Anyian just felt helpless.

My dear, your mother just went to take a bath, she is not dead, there is no need to cry like this.

She hugged Lele, whose face was red from crying.

As soon as Lele got into her arms, he started to rub against her, obviously wanting to drink milk.

"You two little guys, you never stop for even a minute."

Lele ate the rations at this moment, and made humming sounds in his mouth, as if responding to her words, which made Shen Annian laugh in anger.

"Eating so much, like a little pig."

Lele seemed to understand what she said, and waved his little fists as if to protest what she said.

Now that Mother Qin had some free time, she went to prepare things.
