In the end, Pei Ji'an finished a big bowl of the soup that old lady Wu Ma had lovingly prepared, which made old lady Wu Ma so happy that she kept saying "good things" and said that she would stew more tomorrow.

"Pfft - cough, cough." Pei Zheng almost choked to death when he heard that. He glanced at Lu Nong. How much does she dislike the old man? She's still making fun of him.

Lu Nong happened to meet Pei Zheng's eyes, and after a second, he looked away without emotion.

Whatever. You can’t wash it clean even if you jump into the Yellow River. It’s in ruins.

The meal was finished in a strange atmosphere. As soon as the meal was over, the people at the table dispersed immediately. Pei Zheng said that he wanted to wash the dishes, and old lady Wu also said that there was something unfinished in the kitchen. The two of them stood up almost at the same time and squeezed into the kitchen. Seeing this, Xiao Zhou said that there seemed to be something wrong with the car and he wanted to go out to check it.

Lu Nong: “…” In that case, I’ll just slip away too.

She picked up Zizi and Xiaobai and ran upstairs.

Unfortunately, the monk can run away but the temple cannot. Pei Jinan does have lunch break, but he generally doesn't like to rest at home. Today, during lunch break, Pei Jinan did not return to the army as usual, but went upstairs to his bedroom.

He grasped the door handle and was about to push open the bedroom door when he suddenly remembered something and knocked on the door.

No one answered in the bedroom.

Instead, the door of Gu Huai and Wu's mother's room next door suddenly opened and then quickly closed.

Pei Ji'an laughed angrily.

Lu Nong originally wanted to coax the baby to sleep and then go back to the house for a nap, but unfortunately the baby held on to Xiaobai and refused to let go, insisting on sleeping with Xiaobai.

Seeing that Zaizai was determined, she was also worried that Xiaobai might have bugs, so she said to Zaizai, "How about we give Xiaobai a bath? Xiaobai is dirty now, and after he's washed, he can sleep with the baby."

The baby tilted his head, thought for a moment and said, "Baby, take a bath."

Lu Nong was surprised, "Baby, do you want to take a bath too?"

The baby nodded, "Baby is dirty, wash it, Xiaobai goes to sleep."

Lu Nong was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Gu Huai meant. He said that he was also dirty and had to wash himself thoroughly before he could sleep with Xiao Bai.

Lu Nong's heart moved, as if it was hit, and became unusually soft. Gu Huai was undoubtedly smart. He understood the "disdain" in his mother's words for the dirty hair of his new friend Xiaobai, and he also understood that if Xiaobai wanted to get the "qualification" to sleep with him, he had to take a bath.

But in his heart, he regarded Xiaobai as a friend. Since Xiaobai could only sleep with him after she was clean, then correspondingly, he must also become clean before he could sleep with Xiaobai. This was fair.

What a gentle and clear soul! Lu Nong felt like his heart was healed.

How much depravity did he go through in the novel to become the so-called villain?

Thinking of this, Lu Nong felt a little upset. Gu Huai in the book grew up to be stubborn, selfish, and distrustful of others. He had almost all the elements of a villain. He did not believe in love, did not approach others, and did not let others approach him. Loneliness and coldness became his synonyms.

The only time he thought of redemption was when he fell in love with the daughter of the heroine's sister, but it was too late. He had done too many things that could not be reversed.

The girl didn't love him, and she hated him because he and her family didn't get along. Later, she fell in love with someone else, got married and had children.

It was not until Gu Huai died young that the girl let go of her hatred for him because of the greatness of the dead.

Lu Nong sighed and patted the baby's head lovingly, "Okay, then let's give Xiaobai a bath first, and then give the baby a bath, okay?"

"Yeah." The baby nodded vigorously, looking serious and cute.

Lu Nong smiled and said, just keep going like this, grow up healthily and happily, and when you grow up, meet the girl you love and be together with her bravely, you don’t need to look for others to redeem you, be a person with a clear conscience and redeem yourself.

Mom will take good care of you.

She breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door and wanted to go to the bathroom...As soon as she opened the door, she saw Pei Jinan raising his hand and knocking on the door of the next bedroom.

Lu Nong: “…” Help, shouldn’t he go to work?

Lu Nong subconsciously withdrew his body and hid in the door. After a while, he heard no sound outside. He secretly opened the door and stuck his head out. Seeing that Pei Ji'an was gone, he took Zizi and Xiaobai into the bathroom like a thief.

Help! She just wanted to escape now and didn’t want to face Pei Ji’an’s anger at all.

Well, she will explain it after Pei Jinan has completely calmed down.

…So how can I explain this, help!? She said that she didn’t ask her godmother to make soup for him, but that it was her godmother who made the decision?

That’s right, my mother said so herself, but who believed it?

She said she didn't dislike him because he was old, nor did she dislike him because he was incompetent, but she said yesterday that Pei Jinan was old.

Good guy, now the whole family thinks Pei Ji'an is not capable, and it was she who stamped the approval herself.

To put it more seriously, Pei Ji'an's reputation was completely ruined by her.

Lu Nong was desperate. Would a man easily forgive a woman who repeatedly spread rumors about him?

Yes, yes, yes, right?

Ah!! Forget it, I'd better hide for now, if I can hide for a while.

Xiaobai is a pure white puppy, without a trace of other colors on its body. It is very small and very cute, but a little bit aloof. If you go to hug it, it will run away immediately, or turn around and face you with its butt.

But Zaizai never gets tired of it. When Xiaobai runs, he chases her. When Xiaobai points his butt at him, he moves his body little by little until he is in front of Xiaobai's head. Then Xiaobai turns around...

When bathing, Xiaobai still faced Lu Nong with his butt. Lu Nong bravely used the shower head to soak Xiaobai all over. Xiaobai let out a "woof" and then a "wang".

Lu Nong smiled evilly, "Xiao Bai, you better obey me obediently, otherwise, hmph..."

Baobao looked at Lu Nong with a reproachful look.

Lu Nong ended his prank with embarrassment and began to give Xiaobai a bath seriously.

After washing, she wiped Xiaobai clean with an old towel. Xiaobai had little hair on his body, so everything on his body was wiped clean by the towel in just two or three strokes.

"Let's put Xiaobai on your bed first, and then give you a bath, okay?"

Ever since Lu Nong discovered that his son was a thoughtful child, he began to subconsciously ask for and respect his opinions.

"Yeah," the baby nodded to his mother, and then reached out his tender little hand to touch the shivering Xiaobai hiding in the towel, and said to it, "Xiaobai, wait for the baby."

Lu Nong watched with great interest from the side.

Zaizai is a very well behaved baby. Even though Lu Nong was unfamiliar with bathing him, he did not cry or make a fuss. He sat obediently in the bathtub, tilting his head to look at Lu Nong with his innocent eyes.

It seemed that only during the first few days after she came back, the baby would cry for her every morning, but once she hugged him, he would stop crying and fall asleep peacefully in her arms.

Lu Nong felt a bit complicated. He gently wrapped him in a big towel like he did with Xiaobai and put him back in his little bed.

Xiaobai was still shivering in the old towel, without running around at all. Lu Nong took the towel off its head. Xiaobai stood up to shake off the water on its body, walked crookedly to Zaizai, licked Zaizai's hand, and then lay beside Zaizai without moving.

"Xiaobai!" Zizi happily hugged Xiaobai into his own quilt, and muttered something under the quilt.

Lu Nong was startled and quickly dragged him out of the quilt and said sternly, "You can't sleep with your head covered in the quilt, do you understand?"

Although Zizi was puzzled, in his little head, when he buried his head in the quilt, the whole world became as big as the quilt. Before, there was only him, but now he wanted to share this secret with Xiaobai, but his mother disagreed, so he had to stick out his head and pull Xiaobai's dog head onto the pillow.

noob:"……"

Sympathize with Xiaobai for a second.

Lu Nong: "Close your eyes, Mom is here, do you want to listen to a bedtime story?"

Probably not, because Lu Nong discovered that her son had an amazing skill—falling asleep in seconds.

Lu Nong closed the door gently and returned to her bedroom. She thought Pei Jianan would leave if he didn't find her, but she didn't expect Pei Jianan to sit by the window with his eyes closed.

He seemed to like sitting there very much. Sometimes he would read there at night. After Lu Nong finished her bedtime care, he would put down the book and turn off the lights to go to sleep together.

Lu Nong hesitated for a moment, but decided to leave. Although they had slept in the same bed for several days, it was always at night. Lu Nong felt a little uncomfortable during the day.

"Am I scary?" Pei Jinan opened his eyes and looked directly at Lu Nong.

"Haha," Lu Nong laughed dryly, "That's not the case."

It seemed that there was no way to avoid it today. Lu Nong encouraged himself in his heart and walked towards Pei Jinan, intending to kneel down and apologize in a lightning speed, and was determined not to give Pei Jinan the slightest chance to get angry.

Pei Ji'an looked at Lu Nong who was walking towards him nervously step by step, and was about to say something...

Before he could speak, Lu Nong said, "I was wrong! I shouldn't have called you old, and I shouldn't have let your stepmother make you some tonic, which caused people to misunderstand that you weren't that... Go ahead and hit me."

After saying that, she closed her eyes and turned her face away like a hero. Before Pei Ji'an could react, she said quickly, "I know you are a soldier and you don't beat your wife. Otherwise, you can scold me."

Pei Ji’an: “…”

Lu Nong secretly opened one eye and glanced at Pei Jinan's expression, and when Pei Jinan looked over, he immediately closed his eyes.

She thought Pei Ji'an didn't see her little action, and she thought that Pei Ji'an's expression when she peeked at him just now didn't look like he was furious, so she started to get ready to make a move.

Pei Jinan had seen Lu Nong sing, recite, act and fight without blinking an eye, and sure enough, he heard Lu Nong flattering him, his voice even choked with sobs, and he said with emotion, "I know you are a tolerant person, cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and you can't bear to blame me. In fact, you have already forgiven me in your heart, right?"

Pei Jinan smiled and sighed helplessly in his heart. What kind of treasure did he marry? Gu Weiguo, Gu Weiguo, did you plan this out in advance?

"So you're unhappy with me?"

"Huh?" The topic jumped too quickly and Lu Nong didn't react for a moment. When she finally reacted, her face turned red. Logically speaking, she was not an ignorant person, but hearing these words coming from the mouth of a cold old man like Pei Ji'an was really hard to handle.

"If you are not satisfied, you can try it tonight." Pei Ji'an stood up, put on his hat and straightened it. At this time, the military uniform had not been reformed. The S-style military uniform was neat and heroic. When worn on Pei Ji'an, his ascetic aura was brought out to the fullest. It was perfect for him.

Lu Nong watched him walk out of the room with disdainful eyes. Erkang didn't know where to put his hands. What did you mean...try it tonight?

Is it because the way she admitted her mistake was wrong?
