Xu Jianguo carried Funiu back home, put her on the kang, then went to the main room, took out a can of yellow peaches from the system space, unscrewed the lid, poured out three pieces, and took a wooden spoon to bring it into the house.
"Funiu, here's something delicious for you!"
"Wow, gah, what is this?"
"This is canned yellow peaches. Just eat it on the kang and I'll go cook for you, okay?"
"Okay, okay!" The little girl clapped her hands happily and spoke.
Funiu took the wooden spoon, scooped up a piece of yellow peach with great effort, and said, "Haha, you eat it!"
Xu Jianguo looked at the little girl's serious eyes, and the soft spot in his heart was deeply touched.
He patted the little guy's head, took a small bite of the yellow peach with his lips, and said, "Funiu is so good. Brother has eaten it, you should eat it quickly!"
"Hehe, okay haha!"
"Ah!" Funiu took a big bite of the yellow peach. When she tasted the canned yellow peach, the little girl's eyes widened again.
"Haha, so delicious!" After saying that, he started to giggle.
Xu Jianguo also smiled and said, "Eat, I'll go cook for you. If you need anything, call me!"
Since the big iron pot at home was still in the brigade headquarters, Xu Jianguo cooked dinner today in a casserole placed on the fire.
Coming to the main room, Xu Jianguo took out some rice, eggs and chicken legs from the space, and went to the vegetable garden to pick two cucumbers and a tomato.
Peel the potatoes, chop the chicken legs into pieces, smash the cucumbers and chop them into sections.
Since there was only one pot, it took longer than usual to cook today. It was nearly two hours later before the meal was ready.
A rich dinner of braised potatoes and chicken, cold cucumber salad, tomato and egg drop soup, and steamed rice was placed on the kang table.
Xu Jianguo poured the soup of potato and chicken nuggets on the rice and placed it in front of Funiu. The food cooked with space well water smelled fragrant.
After sniffing hard, the little guy's foodie nature was activated again, and he stared at Xu Jianguo with his big eyes.
Knowing that she was anxious, Xu Jianguo picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the cucumber. Seeing that her brother had already started eating, Funiu grabbed the wooden spoon in the bowl and started eating with big mouthfuls. A few grains of rice stuck to her greasy little mouth.
Xu Jianguo looked at Funiu with a smile and kept picking up food for her. There were two chicken thighs, and the little girl could eat one by herself.
After Funiu finished eating all the rice in the bowl, Xu Jianguo served her another bowl of egg drop soup.
The brother and sister devoured the food like 100 percent of the way home.
Funiu patted her belly and giggled, "Gaga's cooking is still the best."
"Funiu, listen to my brother. Don't tell anyone what you eat at home. Otherwise, if bad guys find out, they'll come and steal our delicious food. Got it?"
"Okay, haha, I won't tell anyone." Funiu said seriously.
Looking at the little girl's serious expression, Xu Jianguo couldn't help laughing.
After washing the dishes and pouring a bowl of space well water for Funiu, Xu Jianguo went to the yard to wash and hang up the two sets of clothes soaked in the basin.
He came to the main room and moved a large water tank from the utility room to the toilet, cleaned it with water, and then used a shower head to put half a tank of hot water into the water tank.
He took out the water tank and moved it into the inner room, then took out shampoo and shower gel from the space.
Xu Jianguo tested the water temperature, blushed, stripped off Funiu's clothes, and carried Funiu into the water tank.
"Let's take a shower!"
The last time he gave a girl a bath was in his previous life, when he adopted two children, a boy and a girl. Xu Jianguo couldn't help but smile when he remembered the hectic scene when he gave them a bath for the first time.
Three people, one big and two small, were laughing and playing by the bathtub, and in the end they themselves got soaked.
"Hey, I don't know how those two little guys are doing now!"
Putting his thoughts aside, Xu Jianguo looked at Funiu standing in the water tank, quietly took out a little yellow duck toy from the space supermarket, and put it into the water tank.
"Quack, this little duck is so cute!" Funiu said happily.
When the little girl saw Xu Jianguo constantly pouring hot water on her body and head, a naughty expression appeared on her face. She secretly scooped some water with her little hands and poured it on Xu Jianguo when he wasn't paying attention.
"Ah, you actually dare to splash water on your brother. Let me show you how I'm going to deal with you." Xu Jianguo deliberately pretended to be surprised.
Then the brother and sister started playing water fight.
Sure enough, with the little girl's giggling and the water level in the water tank constantly dropping, Xu Jianguo became a drowned chicken again.
Xu Jianguo smiled helplessly and thought to himself, "I have to change clothes again..."
After playing for a while, Xu Jianguo washed Funniu clean with shampoo and shower gel, then took out a large bath towel from the space, wrapped the little guy up, and put her on the kang.
"Haha, I smell so good!" said Funiu.
"Okay, stay here and I'll go clean up."
Xu Jianguo moved the water tank to the yard, poured out the water, and then put it into the space. Then he entered the space and took a hot bath.
After leaving the space, Xu Jianguo came to his parents' room, took off his shoes, got on the kang and started rummaging through the drawers.
After searching for a long time, he finally found the clothes he wore as a child in a bundle at the innermost part of the kang cabinet.
Looking at the clean little clothes, Xu Jianguo couldn't help but think of the appearance of his parents buried deep in his memory in this life.
Xu Jianguo's father in this life, Xu Maotian, gave him the impression of being tall and handsome with a resolute complexion since childhood. Although he was usually strict with him, he was the most solid support in Xu Jianguo's heart.
He remembered that when he was a child, he had a fight with other children. The other parent slapped him, and he ran home crying to complain.
After hearing this, Xu Maotian did not stand up for him immediately, but beat him up first.
He thought that this bullying incident would just be over, but he didn't expect that the next morning, the man who had slapped him before came to his house with a bruised face and brought the child who had fought with him to apologize.
Now that I think about it, this must be the result of his father standing up for him.
From then on, whenever Xu Jianguo told his parents that he had been in a fight, the first thing Xu Maotian would ask was, "Did you win or lose?"
Every time this happened, my mother Ge Ruzhen would roll her eyes.
In Xu Jianguo's memory, his mother Ge Ruzhen was a woman as gentle as jade, with a kind heart and a strong scholarly air.
When he was very young, Ge Ruzhen taught him to read and write, which made Xu Jianguo one of the few literate people in the entire Sandaliang Village.
"Thinking about it, my parents' death anniversary will be coming soon. I have to go and pay my respects to them secretly then." Xu Jianguo thought to himself.
Putting aside his thoughts, Xu Jianguo took the bag to his room and picked out a few sets of clothes according to Funiu's figure.
He wiped Funiu's hair and body, put his childhood clothes on her, and nodded with satisfaction.
