Chapter 28: Manicurist
Jiang Shen looked at Ren Fenghe and felt that she had returned to the quietness she had when they first met.
Jiang Tangxia smiled and said, "Are you shy? Then I'll make Yangyang's favorite breakfast. You can try it and see if you like it. How about that?"
Ren Fenghe nodded, hid behind Jiang Shen, but couldn't help but look at Jiang Tangxia.
Like Jiang Shen, Jiang Tangxia likes to talk to her using questions and let her make decisions. Also, like Jiang Shen, she gives people a gentle, moon-like temperament.
Ren Fenghe really wanted to get close to Jiang Tangxia, but he didn't know how to do it.
Jiang Qian came out of Jiang Tangxia's arms and said, "Mom, I want to eat too."
Jiang Tangxia moved her head and cheeks like a cat, kissed her face affectionately and said, "Got it, greedy girl."
Jiang Qian allowed Jiang Tangxia to kiss her. After the kiss, she rubbed the place where she had just been kissed with the back of her hand mercilessly and argued, "It's not that I'm greedy, it's that I'm hungry too."
"Okay, okay, okay," Jiang Tangxia stood up and began to drive them away. "Alright, those who need to play can go play, and those who haven't washed up can wash up. The kitchen is left to me."
The three people who were expelled came to the living room together.
The books on the small bookshelf in the living room had been replaced, and the original books were put away by Jiang Shen and placed in the utility room.
Two little girls were playing a manicure game there, and Jiang Shen was unable to get in on the action. He was also worried that judging from Yuanyuan's mischievous behavior in the past few days, he would be forced to do a manicure if he went over there, so he obediently sat down next to the bookshelf and started reading the books on the small bookshelf.
Children's values have not yet been formed, so the reading materials they come into contact with must be screened by adults.
Jiang Shen began to flip through the books one by one. Children's picture books have few words and are mainly pictures, so he flipped through them one by one very quickly.
Soon, he picked up the picture book drawn by Ms. Miao's daughter, which depicted various kinds of skies.
The sky is clear when the sun is shining, and it is covered with dark clouds when a storm is coming...
Under the illustrations of different skies are written the author's short stories that happened on that day.
Jiang Shen could tell that this was not a children's picture book, but it was fine for children to read, and he himself was fascinated by it.
He was so engrossed in watching that he didn't notice that the two children cooperated tacitly to make a feint to the east and attack in the west.
When Ren Fenghe found out that he had started flipping through picture books, she became worried that the comics she bought would be confiscated.
Ms. Miao doesn’t understand the difference between comics and picture books, but she does!
When she was in school, she heard many classmates say that the adults at home did not allow them to read comics. Once discovered, the comics would be confiscated. Even teachers would tell them in class not to read useless books.
She didn't think comics were useless books, but she didn't know whether Jiang Shen would think so.
So, for the safety of her precious comics, she had to move quickly!
So, Ren Fenghe came close to Jiang Qian and whispered something into her ear. As she spoke, Jiang Qian's eyes became brighter and brighter, the curve of the corners of her mouth became wider and wider, and then she nodded heavily!
Ren Fenghe immediately took out something new from the toy box - children's nail polish placed inside a children's dressing toy.
When Jiang Qian saw the nail polish, her expression immediately lit up, but she still remembered their conspiracy. She controlled her excitement and quietly asked Ren Fenghe, "Why didn't you take it out just now?"
Ren Fenghe was worried that it would be unhealthy to apply this on children's nails, but of course she couldn't explain this to Jiang Qian, so she said, "The adults don't let us apply this, I'm afraid we'll be scolded."
Jiang Qian imagined the scene of being scolded, and her smile instantly collapsed. She looked aggrieved as if she had really been scolded.
"The adults are so mean! They clearly belong to us children, but they don't allow us children to use them." Jiang Qian was filled with indignation.
"So we have to use it on adults!" Jiang Qian made a big turn.
She and Ren Fenghe looked at each other slyly and laughed.
Jiang Shen, who was immersed in the picture book, was of course unaware of the approaching danger, nor did he notice any movement around him.
Before he knew it, a little guy came to the back of the small bookshelf while he was not paying attention, quietly took the comics from the small bookshelf, and then tiptoed to hide them in the toy box.
The little thief committed the crime perfectly!
On the other side, another petty criminal also began her actions.
Although she knew that her uncle might not like nail polish, Jiang Qian was still considerate enough to choose her favorite color from a row of children's nail polishes - Dreamy Barbie Pink!
Jiang Qian looked at the bright pink color and nodded vigorously. Her uncle must like pink too. He would definitely be satisfied with this color of nail polish!
Manicurist Jiang Qian unscrewed the bottle, turned around, and started today's manicure with swift hands and feet.
With a flick of his hand, the small brush stained with bright Barbie pink nail polish fell on Jiang Shen's toes.
Jiang Shen, who was reading a book, felt his toes suddenly become cold and wet. He wondered if the two little ones were playing with water while drinking, so he quickly pulled his attention away from the book and looked up.
When he saw this, the expression on his face froze.
I saw two little guys holding nail polish and touching his poor and innocent toes!
That’s right, after Ren Fenghe hid the comic book, he also joined Jiang Qian.
She had to implement all the bad ideas she came up with together with Jiang Qian, so that when she was scolded, she could jump out and take all the blame.
Jiang Shen was speechless for a moment. He looked at his toes silently, half of which was Barbie pink and the other half was dreamy purple.
"Uncle! Isn't it beautiful! Unicorn feet!" Jiang Qian couldn't empathize with Jiang Shen's complicated feelings. She thought that the manicure she and Ren Fenghe painted together was particularly beautiful and everyone would like it.
Ren Fenghe noticed it, and she was trying to hold back her laughter, which made her expression distorted. She did not forget to add fuel to the fire, and imitated Jiang Qian's sentence pattern - "Daddy! Isn't it cute! Unicorn feet!"
After saying that, Ren Fenghe turned around to face Jiang Qian, stretched out his hand and high-fived Jiang Qian.
Anyone with a pair of healthy eyes can tell which of the two kids is genuinely good-looking and which is harboring evil intentions.
Jiang Shen looked at Ren Fenghe.
stare--
It's confirmed, it must have been her idea.
But seeing the two children laughing so happily, Jiang Shen could only hold back the words "he doesn't like it". In order not to discourage Jiang Qian's enthusiasm, he didn't even use a tissue to wipe it off.
He said: "It's pretty good, at least it's all on the toenails and not on the flesh, but you didn't even ask me what color I like."
Jiang Qian's eyes widened, her mouth opened wide, her two small hands crossed over her mouth, and she said in surprise: "Uncle, don't you like pink and purple!"
"You don't even like such a beautiful color!" Ren Fenghe responded.
The two little girls made the same expression of "You are so tasteless", and Jiang Shen couldn't help but pursed his lips deeply to control his hard fist.
Ren Fenghe knew when to stop. She patted Jiang Qian's hand and said, "The taste of an adult may be different from that of us children. We respect his taste."
Jiang Qian thought about it and felt that what Ren Fenghe said made a lot of sense, so she nodded repeatedly.
With this nod, he fell into Ren Fenghe's trap again.
Ren Fenghe laid out a row of nail polishes, spread out his hands and said, "Please choose your favorite color."
Jiang Shen is in a difficult situation now. He has no desire to paint his toenails. Even if it is a color he likes, he doesn't want to paint it on his toes.
"How about I wipe it off my feet and you guys help me apply it on my hands?" Jiang Shen suggested.
As an idol, he has done nail art. Sometimes, in order to cater to the stage concept, colors such as black and silver are often combined together on his nails.
"Uncle is still the best. Mom definitely won't allow us to paint our feet or hands." Jiang Qian said.
Jiang Shen corrected him: "It's not called a hand, it's called a hand."
Jiang Qian said "Oh" perfunctorily. Her attention was no longer on this. She said vaguely, "Hand."
"Which color do you want?" Ren Fenghe asked.
Jiang Shen still chose black and silver, and handed them to the two little girls in front of him respectively. After handing them over, he opened his ten fingers and let them hold them.
Jiang Shen couldn't help but look towards the kitchen and sighed in his heart.
Aunt, why haven’t you finished making breakfast yet?
After Jiang Shen's ten fingers had been sharpened vigorously, as if he had made an appointment with the children, Jiang Tangxia opened the kitchen door.
"Wash your hands and get ready for dinner." Jiang Tangxia called.
Jiang Qian immediately pulled Ren Fenghe to the bathroom and said like an older sister, "Yuanyuan, I'll help you wash your hands. I'll rub a lot of bubbles on your hands and wash them clean."
When they reached the bathroom door, Jiang Qian suddenly thought of something and hurriedly stepped back and said to Jiang Shen, "Uncle, you can't wash your hands yet. You have to wait until the nail polish dries before you can wash your hands."
Jiang Tangxia looked at Jiang Shen in confusion. Jiang Shen silently turned his hands back to Jiang Tangxia and said, "This is their masterpiece."
"And on the feet!" Jiang Qian added actively.
Jiang Tangxia looked down at Jiang Shen's feet. Jiang Shen felt embarrassed and wanted to stretch his feet under the sofa so that no one could see them.
But Jiang Tangxia saw what she should have seen, and she immediately burst into laughter, "Not bad, Miracle Jiang Shen."
Jiang Shen chose an angle where neither Jiang Qian nor Ren Fenghe could see and rolled his eyes at Jiang Tangxia.
"Uncle, do you understand?" Seeing that Jiang Shen didn't answer, Jiang Qian asked again persistently.
Jiang Shen had no idea what to do with the two children, so he nodded twice in agreement. Jiang Qian felt relieved and took Ren Fenghe to wash his hands again.
Jiang Qian entered the bathroom, skillfully pulled the step stool over, stepped on it first, waved to Ren Fenghe and said responsibly: "Don't worry, sister, stand next to me, I will step on the stool firmly, you won't fall."
Jiang Qian, who was speaking seriously, was like a little adult. Her chubby face looked even more chubby as she spoke. Ren Fenghe really wanted to kiss Jiang Qian's face hard like Jiang Tangxia did.
She stepped on it cooperatively, "Thank you, sister, you are so nice!"
Jiang Qian immediately covered her mouth and laughed, she was extremely happy to be praised.
She laughed for a long time before she put her hand down and reached out to touch Ren Fenghe's face.
She was taller than Ren Fenghe. She leaned over to Ren Fenghe and said, "You are the youngest sister in the family now. I will take good care of you!"
She did as she said, first lifting up her own sleeves, then lifting up Ren Fenghe's sleeves, "I'll help you wash your hands clean!"
The small hand held the smaller hand. Jiang Qian stretched out her other arm and used the palm of her hand as a scoop to wet Ren Fenghe's hands. She then squeezed out hand sanitizer and rubbed bubbles on Ren Fenghe's hands. While carefully rinsing Ren Fenghe, she said, "You can't play with bubbles while washing your hands while eating, but you can take the opportunity to play with bubbles while taking a bath."
Jiang Qian demonstrated by making a circle with her hands without bubbles and said, "When there are bubbles, just blow like this and the bubbles will fly out. It's fun! You must have never tried it!"
Ren Fenghe was very cooperative and said in surprise: "It can be done this way!"
Jiang Qian proudly wanted to put her hands on her hips, but her hands were held by Ren Fenghe. Ren Fenghe stood on tiptoe to take down the hand towel hanging on the wall, and wiped her hands together with Jiang Qian.
For some reason, the little girls who were wiping their hands close to each other with a towel suddenly looked at each other and started laughing.
