Chapter 6 Bathing War
The little boy was getting ready to pour out all the coffee concentrate when he suddenly felt a tingling sensation on his back.
Her hand was about to touch the bag, but it was hanging in the air. She turned her head tremblingly and found that Ms. Miao was staring at her.
When their eyes met, Ms. Miao stretched out her hand to Ren Fenghe and said, "Come on, grandma will take you to take a bath. Isn't this why I came here?"
What? !
How come she didn’t know that Jiang Shen asked his aunt to come in order to give her a bath?
No, absolutely not!
She went through a period when she could not take a bath alone, her body needed to be seen by others, and she was unable to take care of herself. This period left her with indelible psychological trauma. It was a moment when the self-esteem of a once healthy person was once again trampled on and destroyed.
After she adjusted to life with her amputation and was able to bathe alone in the converted bathroom, she refused to allow anyone to get close to her while she was bathing.
"I don't want to wash! I don't want to wash! I don't need you to wash it for me!"
Ren Fenghe, who had been pretending to be a quiet child for the whole morning, had her image completely destroyed the moment Ms. Miao tried to forcibly pick her up and go to the bathroom.
Ren Fenghe never thought she could be so agile. Her explosive power allowed her to quickly avoid Ms. Miao's hands and hide under the dining table.
Forget about caring about her image, she couldn't even care how embarrassing it was for an adult like her to hide under the dining table.
If she wasn't in the room right now, she would have wanted to crawl under the bed.
"I can wash it myself, you don't need to help me!" Ren Fenghe said with great resistance.
Ms. Miao pulled her sleeves up to her arms, revealing the strong and powerful arms of a woman who had worked for most of her life. She easily moved the chair beside the dining table to the side and leaned over to grab the food.
With an angry howl, Ren Fenghe was captured by Ms. Miao like a chicken in the chicken coop about to be put into boiling water to pluck its feathers.
She learned the children's series of protest movements, such as shaking their hands, kicking their legs and twisting their bodies, without any instruction, and she also shouted, "I don't want it, I don't want it, I don't want it!"
Ms. Miao used to work in a school, and what she hated most were naughty children. Ren Fenghe's series of annoying actions successfully aroused Ms. Miao's anger.
She grabbed Ren Fenghe's wrists with her big hand and locked them together. She grabbed her legs with her other hand and used her arms to support Ren Fenghe's body.
Ren Fenghe really had no way out now, she stared at Ms. Miao angrily.
"I can take a bath! I can take a bath by myself!" Ren Fenghe said loudly.
Ms. Miao tried to reason with her calmly.
"You are only four years old, how can you take a bath by yourself? If shampoo gets into your eyes and you catch a cold, you will know you are wrong."
Brother Jinsi said that Ms. Miao was strong but communicative, but Ren Fenghe could clearly feel that this kind of communication was not for a four-year-old child.
In the eyes of most adults, children’s thoughts and decisions are not worth mentioning.
Ren Fenghe, who had turned into a child, was so angry that white air was coming out of his nose.
Jiang Shen was so shocked by Ren Fenghe's earth-shaking change that he had no time to react. He just watched a battle of two birds with one stone. He only came to his senses after the outcome of the battle was decided.
He looked at Ren Fenghe.
The child, who had been quiet and introverted all morning and had not disturbed anyone, was now like a hedgehog with its spines erected, or a puppy baring its teeth to drive away its enemies, doing his best to protect himself.
Even if this means of self-protection is seen by adults as a child's disobedience and temper tantrum, it only takes a little trick or tough measures to make the other party surrender.
Jiang Shen pursed his lips, and through this small figure he thought of what her mother had said to him, and many other things.
Yuanyuan doesn't want Aunt Miao to take a bath with her. Is it because...
Jiang Shen suddenly said, "Let her wash herself."
The most annoying thing about educating children is that other members are not on the same page as you.
Ms. Miao, who was provoked by Ren Fenghe, glared at Jiang Shen angrily, "What did you say?"
This look is full of the meaning of "I advise you to take back what you said".
Ren Fenghe took this opportunity to break free from Ms. Miao's restraints and hid behind Jiang Shen.
Seeing this scene, Ms. Miao became even angrier. But thinking that the person in front of her was her employer, she took a deep breath and said, "Look at her hands. They are so small. It's hard to say whether she can hold the shower head steadily. How is she going to wash herself?"
Ren Fenghe looked down at her hands. She couldn't even hold the auxiliary chopsticks properly, so she might not be able to control the shower. She couldn't help but feel dejected.
Jiang Shen felt that the little girl standing behind him, using him as a shield, had less strength in grabbing his pants. Even though he couldn't see her expression, he could guess what she looked like now.
"I bought a children's bathtub a few days ago and filled it with water. She can just wash herself in the water for a few times. I can take her outside to wash her hair."
Ren Fenghe instantly raised his head and chest and stood up straight again.
"Children love playing in water and refuse to come out even when the water gets cold!" said Ms. Miao.
Ren Fenghe defended himself: "No, I don't like playing in the water."
She's not a real child.
Every time she said something, they would interrupt her. Ms. Miao had no way to deal with them. She crossed her arms and was very dissatisfied, but in the current situation, she could only take a step back.
"You can wash yourself. I'll be by your side to prevent you from playing around in the water or slipping when you get out of the tub."
Ren Fenghe didn't want her to help him take a bath, nor did he want to be seen naked by others.
She said, "If you turn your back and don't look at me, it's okay."
"You're just a kid, with so many conditions. I didn't realize you were so eloquent just now." Ms. Miao compromised, but did not forget to mutter a few words to Ren Fenghe.
Ren Fenghe was alerted by these words and realized how inappropriate everything she had just done was!
She quickly withdrew her hand from Jiang Shen's pants, despising herself for seeking Jiang Shen's help, and cautiously raised her eyes to glance at Jiang Shen to confirm whether she was exposed.
But Jiang Shen behaved very normally.
Did Zhang Tuanyuan also throw a tantrum like this in the past?
Yes, even the most obedient child will have a disobedient side.
Ren Fenghe soon felt relieved.
After reaching an agreement, she obediently followed Ms. Miao into the room.
"Which is your room?"
Ms. Miao asked as we entered the corridor.
Jiang Shen realized that Ms. Miao had not yet visited the house, and she had been busy in the kitchen since she first came to greet people.
He walked to the front and introduced the room to Ms. Miao.
The room here is different from that in the studio. The studio has only 3 rooms excluding the bathroom. This place is even bigger than the studio. Excluding the bathroom, there are 4 rooms, corresponding to Jiang Shen’s bedroom and Zhang Tuanyuan’s bedroom. The remaining two rooms are always closed, and Ren Fenghe doesn’t know what’s inside.
"I plan to use this room as a cloakroom." Jiang Shen opened one of the rooms.
There is a circle of transparent wardrobes, bag cabinets and shoe cabinets in the room, and a jewelry and hat cabinet in the middle. There are only a dozen sets of clothes in the transparent wardrobe.
Ms. Miao said happily: "She is worthy of being a star. The place is so grand and elegant. There is also a cloakroom. It's just that there are not enough clothes."
Jiang Shen said: "I have just returned to China and have not had any activities or bought anything."
They came to the last closed door. Jiang Shen did not open it, but said to Ms. Miao: "There is no need to clean this room. I usually lock this room."
Ren Fenghe looked at Jiang Shen deeply, then looked at this mysterious room deeply, his curiosity was completely aroused.
What's in this room?
Considering Zhang Tuanyuan’s secret birth, Ren Fenghe’s intuition told him that this room must contain something extraordinary.
Come in! Be sure to find the key to get in!
"Okay, I got it." Ms. Miao had no curiosity about the locked room. After visiting all the rooms, she walked into Ren Fenghe's room and said, "I'll take her to take a bath. If the takeaway arrives, please help me collect it. I bought some groceries."
Ms. Miao opened the wardrobe, and inside it were several brightly colored small clothes stacked.
Jiang Shen saw the folded clothes and looked at Ren Fenghe in surprise.
"Is this the clothes you folded? They are folded so well!" Jiang Shen praised generously.
When she went to the studio, she put all the clothes on Ren Fenghe. After she came back, Ren Fenghe felt hot, so she took off all the clothes and folded them. However, just like using chopsticks, the clothes were not as neat and beautiful as she had imagined.
If she were an ordinary child, she would be very happy to hear the praise from adults, and she would even repeat it to demonstrate to the adults, but Ren Fenghe was not a child, so she just politely raised the corners of her mouth, nodded and said, "Thank you."
In Jiang Shen's opinion, this was just a shy and introverted little girl who was extremely happy but still pretended to be reserved while expressing her thanks.
Ms. Miao looked at the clothes with a critical eye and said, "You can still wear these out in this weather, but they won't be warm enough if another cold front comes in a few days."
Jiang Shen said, "There are other clothes, I'll bring them over later."
Is Jiang Shen going to get clothes from Zhang Tuanyuan’s mother?
She wants to go too.
She is still very curious about who Zhang Tuanyuan's mother is
So she raised her hand and tugged at Jiang Shen's loose white T-shirt, trying to look cute by opening her eyes wide and hinting at him frantically with her eyes.
"Yuanyuan, do you want to go home together to get some clothes?" Jiang Shen could see what she was thinking at a glance.
That’s quite sensible. Ren Fenghe nodded twice.
Jiang Shen was in a dilemma, trying to figure out what reason to use to reject her.
Before he could think of anything, Ms. Miao held Ren Fenghe down, took a set of clothes and said, "You have to take a shower. After you take a shower, don't even think about running out."
It was not until this moment that Ren Fenghe truly realized that Ms. Miao could not only be used by her to take away Jiang Shen's coffee (although she failed), but also bring obstacles to her various ideas and plans.
Looking at Ms. Miao's determined expression and thinking about how she was angry at him just now, Ren Fenghe decided not to contradict Ms. Miao anymore, so as not to upset her.
There will always be a chance to find out who Zhang Tuanyuan’s mother is.
After all, if she had been in Zhang Tuanyuan's body all the time, she would have to meet her mother.
Ren Fenghe was not obsessed with knowing who Zhang Tuanyuan’s mother was for the time being, because she was more curious about things than this.
She followed Ms. Miao to the bathroom, and when she passed the mysterious room, she looked at the locked door.
