Chi Miaomiao carried the brown sugar ginger soup, knocked on the door, and entered the room after receiving a response.
The girls were sitting around the bed, comforting Lu Jiajing.
Chi Miaomiao handed the brown sugar ginger soup to Lu Jiajing.
"Jing'er, have some drink. Your brother Yan cooked it himself to warm you up."
Lu Jiajing accepted it with a smile, her eyes red-rimmed.
"Brother is so gentle,"
"Thank you, Sister Miaomiao."
Chi Miaomiao nodded.
"You're welcome. This is why I fell in love with him."
Chi Miaomiao patted Lu Jiajing's head.
"Drink up, I'll have him cook you something delicious tonight."
Lu Jiajing smiled.
"Um!"
The effect of keeping Chi Miaomiao is not significant, since she is not the same age as the children, no matter how much she understands their thoughts.
However, because of the age difference, the children still find it difficult to talk about it.
So Chi Miaomiao left the room after delivering the soup.
Su Qing and Tu Yi'er also happened to wake up and leave the room.
Tu Yier threw herself into her aunt's arms.
"Auntie!!"
Chi Miaomiao hugged Tu Yier with a smile.
"Sweetie, did you sleep well?"
Tu Yier nodded.
"My aunt's arms are very comfortable, just like my fox aunt's."
Chi Miaomiao pouted.
Am I feeling unwell?
Tu Yi'er giggled.
"I forgot, I'll only know if it's comfortable if I sleep with my aunt tonight."
Chi Miaomiao gently pinched Tu Yier's little nose.
"Little rascal."
Tu Yier jumped out of her aunt's arms and ran straight into Bai Ningbing's arms, aiming to share the affections equally.
Tu Yier felt reassured by Bai Ningbing's weight.
Su Qing felt very sorry for Lu Jiajing after learning about her situation.
Every family has its own troubles.
The two families were neighbors, and Su Qing knew about Lu Jiajing's family situation.
Su Qing couldn't say much, but she would occasionally show concern for Lu Jiajing when they met.
"well--"
Su Qing sighed heavily and stood up.
Let's prepare a special dinner to comfort Jingjing!
Chi Miaomiao and Tu Yier raised their hands and feet in agreement.
Bai Ningbing nodded in support.
Yanluo also thought so, as delicious food can quickly invigorate people.
Inside the room.
Lu Jiajing leaned against Tu Luoxue's chest, while Tu Keke and Xu Rongyue sat at the foot of the bed.
Brown sugar ginger soup is delicious; it's warm and comforting.
Lu Jiajing sipped her drink slowly.
Not only did my body feel warm, but my heart felt warm too.
At the same time, she was also envious that Xue'er was able to have such a family.
Tu Luoxue hugged Lu Jiajing.
Remembering Lu Jiajing sobbing and trembling in the bathroom just now, Tu Luoxue felt very sorry for her.
"Jing'er, are you feeling warmer?"
Lu Jiajing nodded.
"I was already quite warm after taking a shower, and now after drinking the ginger soup, I feel warm all over."
"That's good."
Lu Jiajing took a deep breath and snuggled closer to Tu Luoxue in a relaxed manner.
"I'm sleepy, Consort Ke, help me lie down."
Tu Keke helped Lu Jiajing lie down.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Consort Yue, come, take the bowl away from me."
Xu Rongyue moved next to Lu Jiajing.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Tu Luoxue burst out laughing.
Lu Jiajing reached out and pinched Tu Luoxue's soft skin.
"Snow Queen, how dare you defy me?!"
Tu Luoxue put on a pitiful and helpless expression.
"Your Majesty, you are innocent! How could I dare to do such a treasonous thing!"
Lu Jiajing nodded in satisfaction.
"Lie down and take a nap with me."
Tu Luoxue had no choice but to lie down, and was pulled into Lu Jiajing's domineering embrace.
"Yuefei" and "Kefei" walked out of the room with smiles.
Lu Jiajing affectionately rubbed her chin against Tu Luoxue's hair.
Tu Luoxue had a faint, pleasant fragrance about her.
"Xue'er, I envy you so much for having such a wonderful family."
The white-haired girl looked up and met the gaze of the baby-faced girl who had taken off her glasses.
"Jing'er, don't envy me. You can stay here forever. You are my friend."
Lu Jiajing understood the deeper meaning that Tu Luoxue wanted to convey.
Moved, he hugged Tu Luoxue tightly.
"Xuexue, is it really okay?"
Tu Luoxue nodded, shifted her body, and hugged Lu Jiajing in her arms.
"Don't worry, they like you just the same."
Lu Jiajing smiled and closed her eyes.
Sleepiness washed over her like a tide, and Lu Jiajing soon fell asleep.
Tu Luoxue gently got up, covered Lu Jiajing with the blanket, and then left the room.
Yanluo took Tu Yier and the three girls out shopping.
Only the Tu Luoxue sisters, Xu Rongyue, and the sleeping Lu Jiajing remained at home.
Tu Keke and Xu Rongyue were chatting on the sofa when they saw her sister walk over.
"Sister, is Jing-jie asleep?"
Tu Luoxue nodded.
"Yes, she's fast asleep."
Tu Keke breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good. Sleeping until evening and then eating will help you regain some energy."
"Jingjie's mother is really something, is work that important?"
Tu Luoxue sat down next to her younger sister.
"Didn't we always do this?"
"Our parents are never home, and haven't the three of us sisters always been like this?"
Tu Keke pouted.
"That's true."
Tu Keke recalled a year.
That was when Yanli was newly pregnant, and also shortly after she married into the Tu family.
They took Tu Luoxue and Tu Keke to the amusement park, and then received a phone call. The couple immediately asked their housekeeper, Xu Bolai, to pick up the two sisters and return to the research institute to work.
Tu Luoxue and Tu Keke did not blame the couple.
The two sisters understood Tu Yi and Yan Li's difficulties.
It was a little after four in the afternoon.
A little after five o'clock, Yanluo and the others returned.
Everyone was carrying a bag, and Tu Yier was also carrying a small bag.
Tu Luoxue and the other two women went downstairs.
Tu Ke saw Yan Luo and the others carrying large and small bags.
"Uncle, why did you buy so much stuff?"
Yanluo placed the bag on the dining table.
"I'm planning to cook a big meal tonight to comfort Jiajing."
Xu Rongyue took the bag from Su Qing's hand.
"I'd like to help too."
"sure."
Su Qing responded with a smile to the taciturn and somewhat introverted girl.
The whole family got to work on dinner.
Tu Yier was wearing a small apron and a tiny chef's hat, standing on a chair.
Watching the busy adults, he nodded with a great sense of accomplishment.
Lu Jiajing was fast asleep when she vaguely heard someone calling her name.
"Jiajing, Jiajing—"
Lu Jiajing opened her eyes and found Yan Luo standing by the bed.
"elder brother."
"Get up and have dinner, then go back to sleep."
Lu Jiajing tried to sit up, but felt dizzy and weak.
Yanluo noticed Lu Jiajing's unusual behavior.
Lu Jiajing's face was very red, and when Yan Luo touched it, she indeed had a fever.
"You have a fever, lie down. I'll bring you dinner, and you can take some fever-reducing medicine after you eat."
Lu Jiajing shook her head and struggled to get up.
"No, I've already caused enough trouble for my brother and Xue'er, I can't continue, cough cough cough..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Jiajing started coughing.
Yanluo gently patted her back.
"It's okay. With me, you don't need to be so sensible. Just be yourself."
