Chapter 17: The Seventeenth Word "Mom"
Bai Chuanmu woke up very early. She didn't need an alarm clock. Her biological clock automatically woke her up at around seven o'clock.
Bai Chuanmu patted her face. She didn't know if it was because her body was like a hard-working worker, or her mind was still a senior high school student who hadn't fully recovered, or maybe it was the double buff, but she had no intention of going back to sleep at all.
Xiao Xia Youjie next to him was still asleep.
Waking up so early may be due to my sense of responsibility as a mother.
Bai Chuanmu got up quietly, washed up, and tidied up the house, including the long-unused master bedroom. Then he processed the fresh shrimps he bought yesterday, picked a handful of Chinese cabbage and green onions from the windowsill, and Xiao Xia Youjie yawned and walked out of the room.
"Xiao Jie, we have noodles for breakfast today. Do you want fried eggs or poached eggs?"
"Hmm..." Xiao Xia Youjie rubbed his eyes. He seemed a little confused. "It would be good if I could be like my mother."
"Okay," Bai Chuanmu replied, "Go wash up first, breakfast will take a while to be ready."
Xiao Xia Youjie nodded, walked into the bathroom, and then poked his head out again, asking with sparkling eyes, "Mom, do you need me to ask the cats and dogs to help you?"
Bai Chuanmu smiled helplessly. Ever since the child subdued the curse spirit, he would order the curse spirit to do anything.
But cursed spirits are not omnipotent. They can be used to simply take things and turn on and off lights, but they can only be used as kitchen assistants.
Maybe in the future, if Xiao Xia Youjie can tame a cursed spirit with a certain IQ, he can really train a cursed spirit to be a chef's assistant?
This idea is a bit strange, but it makes Baichuanmu excited... It's a pity that Li Mei is not a curse spirit. I heard that his cooking skills are quite good.
"Thank you, Xiaojie, but no need. The cursed spirits can help get things, but cooking may be too difficult for them, so just leave it to mom."
"That's great... I want to catch a smart cursed spirit in the future, one that can help mom cook."
The mother and child's brain waves matched.
Baichuanmu chuckled: "Okay, I'm looking forward to it."
Xiao Xia Youjie also showed a happy smile and went back to the bathroom to wash up. He now needed to stand on a small stool to reach the sink.
Baichuanmu could hear Xiaoxia Youjie ordering the cursed spirits to do something again: "Cats, dogs, help me push the small stool out."
There was a slight sound of something being dragged.
"Great!" Xiao Xia Youjie's voice was very excited.
Bai Chuanmu smiled and shook his head. This child...
It feels like Xiao Xia Youjie has found an interesting toy or an obedient pet. He still has the mentality of a child. I don’t know how long Xiao Xia Youjie will keep liking the curse spirit. If it can continue... Xiao Jie will definitely be able to become a Pokémon master? ! That’s much better than the curse spirit operator!
At least a lot happier.
Thinking of this, Baichuanmu first placed a Pikachu and two Charmanders that he had drawn from the blind box yesterday on the dining table, which was also the most conspicuous position.
She looked at her "masterpiece" with satisfaction, nodded, and went to cook.
Baichuanmu is not good at many dishes, they are all simple home cooking.
First, put the fresh shrimps that have been processed and opened into the pot and cook until they are done. Then add the noodles, slice the fresh lean meat, add soy sauce and cornstarch and mix well. Add the noodles when they are almost cooked. Baichuanmu prefers runny eggs, but Xiaoxia Youjie doesn't seem to have a clear preference. The eggs are sterile eggs, which are beaten in a little later, but they are well controlled, without any egg droplets, and are very round.
It had been a long time since Bai Chuanmu made such round poached eggs. After putting them in a bowl, she couldn't help but take a photo and show it to the public.
[Mountain Twilight]: A beautiful day starts with a perfect poached egg ^o^~ [Picture]
After happily posting the photo, although he didn't get any likes immediately, Bai Chuanmu felt much better.
Xiao Xia Youjie also finished washing up. He didn't ask his own help to tie his hair today. It seemed that he tried hard for a long time before he tied a nice bun, but some hair was missed and scattered on his forehead.
The number of bangs has increased significantly!
Baichuanmu chuckled. Could it be that Xia Youjie always had a wisp of bangs because he was not good at tying his hair?
"Come, Xiaojie, mom will help you tie it again."
Bai Chuanmu called Xiao Xia Youjie over. Xiao Xia Youjie grunted and waved his hand. A small plastic comb rose from the washbasin and flew towards Bai Chuanmu shakily. Although he still couldn't see it, Bai Chuanmu could imagine how difficult it was for the two little cursed spirits to carry it.
"Xiao Jie, do you like curse spirits so much?" Bai Chuanmu took a few steps forward and took the small plastic comb from the two curse spirits, then skillfully helped Xiao Xia Youjie tie his hair into a bun again, and according to "tradition", he still left him a wisp of bangs.
"Hmm..." Xiao Xia Youjie looked at his three cursed spirits, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I like them... right? Because I think having them can make me stronger, and I can use their power to help others. I want to... tame many, many, super-many cursed spirits."
Want to subdue more cursed spirits? This would indeed make him more powerful, but... it would also mean that it would be very hard.
Baichuanmu lowered his eyes and touched Xiaoxia Youjie's head: "It seems that Xiaojie is very suitable to be a Pokémon trainer master~"
"Yeah! I think so too! And it seems... there is no limit to the number of cursed spirits I can carry."
"Wow - that's a world-class master!"
"World-class master? That sounds amazing. Can I become that powerful?" Xiao Xia Youjie's eyes showed expectation and yearning. "The strongest. Can I become the strongest?"
"Xiaojie has the talent, but the road to becoming the strongest is not easy. But now it's time for our Curse Spirit Training Master to have breakfast."
The noodles have been left for a while and are now at a perfect temperature for eating.
Bai Chuanmu dragged out a chair and carried little Xia Youjie on it. There was no special children's chair at home, so she sat opposite little Xia Youjie.
"It smells so good and looks so beautiful!" Xiao Xia Youjie exclaimed. He couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and start slurping the noodles.
Seeing Xiao Xia Youjie eating so happily, Bai Chuanmu also felt his appetite increase and he also slurped the noodles.
There were three shrimps in each bowl. Bai Chuanmu wanted to give one more to Xiao Xia Youjie, but according to the child's personality, he might ask to share it with him. So Bai Chuanmu put the three larger shrimps in Xiao Xia Youjie's bowl and hid most of the shredded meat at the bottom of his bowl, but there was relatively less noodles because the child's appetite was not that big.
Xiao Xia Youjie ate with great relish and even finished his soup. He also volunteered to help his mother wash the dishes, but this time he did not ask his cursed spirit to help.
However, he still ordered Maomaogou to push the bench to him. Looking at the speed at which the bench moved, Baichuanmu felt a little distressed for Maomaogou. But when he saw Xiaoxia Youjie's serious expression, he seemed like he was supervising the work of his employees. At such a young age, he had the demeanor of a leader.
Oh my, my Xiaojie is so cute!
Then the two leaders, one big and one small, watched the poor and weak cats and dogs pushing the bench. According to the small leader, the bench was twice as big as the cats and dogs.
So what? Our little leader is so cute!
If the cat and dog had a higher IQ, would they think their owner was a black-hearted boss? But unfortunately, the cat and dog was just a third-level little cursed spirit, stupid.
It pushed the bench to the destination designated by Xiao Xia Youjie with a silly smile. After receiving a pat on the back from Xiao Xia Youjie as a reward, its little tail wagged like a fan.
Bai Chuanmu certainly wouldn't leave all the dishes to Xiao Xia Youjie, but since the child took the initiative to ask for it, she seriously handed her dishes to him to wash, while she herself was responsible for washing Xiao Xia Youjie's dishes and kitchen utensils.
They deliberately exchanged the bowls and chopsticks. It seemed that there was no difference, but little Xia Youjie was very happy, as if his mother had entrusted him with something very important. He felt very proud and honored, and even such a trivial household chore as washing dishes was fun for him.
Little Xia Youjie's little hands were stirring in the sink and wiping with a rag, but in the end he "got off topic" and started playing with bubbles unknowingly.
He stared at the big bubble on the back of his hand with sparkling eyes. He was very curious about the reflection inside. He gently shook the back of his hand and watched the world in the bubble sway. "Pop", the bubble burst, and his thumb and index finger bent into a circle. Xiao Xia Youjie blew out another big bubble. He raised his hand to show Baichuanmu: "Mom, look, what a big bubble."
Bai Chuanmu put down the steel wool, bent his thumb and index finger into a circle, and blew a bigger bubble: "Mom is more powerful!"
This made little Xia Youjie laugh out loud. He had never found blowing bubbles so fun before. Maybe it was because he washed dishes and blew bubbles with his mother that he found it super fun!
The point is to be with mom!
Bai Chuanmu finished washing the dishes and kitchen utensils and cleaned the stove. Then Xiao Xia Youjie finished washing Bai Chuanmu's dishes. Although he was a little slow and played around for a while in the middle, he washed them very carefully and cleanly.
After Xiao Xia Youjie finished washing, he went to do his kindergarten homework obediently without Bai Chuanmu's reminder.
Xiao Xia Youjie did his painting homework first. Painting is not just about drawing. The teacher asked him to draw what happened over the weekend and write a brief description. Xiao Xia Youjie took out his crayon box. Most of the crayons in it were used up. There was only one centimeter left of the black crayon, but he didn't throw it away.
"Xiao Jie, do your homework for a while and then we can go out and buy some writing supplies."
"Hmm? Is there anything you want to buy, Mom?"
"That's a lot~ Keep it secret for now!"
Xiao Xia Youjie nodded, and then began his own creation. He painted a scene of him and his mother washing dishes together. He also used a blue brush to draw a lot of bubbles, which looked like washing dishes or playing a bubble war.
He also drew small-eyed fish, cats and dogs, but the small eyes were a black circle, the small fish were two squares, and the cats and dogs were drawn a little cuter, and you can roughly tell it is a dog or a cat.
Xiao Xia Youjie's drawing skills are not very good, but when he drew his mother, he was very serious and carefully drew her eyes with black crayons. His mother's eyes were dark purple, so he also embellished her eyes with purple crayons.
After finishing the painting, he smiled happily.
Wait, do I need to write a sentence to describe it?
He can't write many words, but he tries very hard to express his meaning.
[お马さんと一丝に楽しかった]
[I am very happy with my mother]
The point is to be with mom.
