"Coming!"
When Mengmeng heard her mother calling her to eat, she quickly stood up, patted the dirt on her pants with both hands, and then went to the bathroom to wash her hands.
She was too short to reach the faucet, so Wu Xia thoughtfully prepared a small bench for Mengmeng there.
Mengmeng walked over and stepped on the small bench, stood on tiptoes, turned on the faucet, and washed her hands and face clean.
When she came to the dining table and sat down, Wu Xia had already prepared the food. At this time, Xu Bing also came back from school.
Since that day, Xu Bing became even more silent. He also knew how to eat when Wu Xia had cooked, and would wash the dishes after eating, but he did not talk to anyone during the whole process.
Wu Xiacai was too lazy to care about Xu Bing, so he didn't say anything if he didn't want to. He didn't have the habit of putting a hot face on a cold butt.
When they finished eating, Xu Guoping did not come back. Seeing that the mission was not over yet, Wu Xia took Mengmeng to watch TV. When Mengmeng became sleepy, she took Mengmeng to wash up. By this time, Xu Bing had already packed up. Bowl, returned to his room.
Seeing that the kitchen was clean, Wu Xia took Mengmeng directly to the bathroom.
Xu Bing lay on the bed, listening to Mengmeng giggling in the bathroom, feeling a deep sense of loss in his heart.
Is Teacher Bai so sad too?
This morning, he seemed to see Teacher Bai hiding there alone and crying secretly. It must be Wu Xia who occupied his father and made Teacher Bai sad. This bad woman not only occupied his father, but also took away his sister.
Xu Bing's nose felt sour and he almost shed tears.
Fortunately, Teacher Bai did not give up. When he went to persuade Teacher Bai today, Teacher Bai asked him if her father was at home. She heard that he might be back tomorrow morning. She also said that she wanted Xu Bing to do her a favor.
Of course Xu Bing wanted to help Teacher Bai, so he hurriedly agreed. Teacher Bai wanted Xu Bing to invite Xu Guoping to the school to have a good talk with him at noon tomorrow. Xu Bing was a little worried.
He didn't know how he should call his father over. Generally speaking, Wu Xia would come over if anything happened at school, and Teacher Bai had no chance to see his father alone. Moreover, my father is so busy at work during the day that it is impossible for him to go to school alone for his own business.
Unless something big happens to me?
Xu Bing's eyes became gloomy, and he slowly turned his head in the direction of the bathroom. There was a warm yellow light, which made people feel warm in their hearts. However, his small room was cold and dark, and he bit his lips: What if Teacher Bai here would definitely not treat himself like this, right?
He had thought about it and would use this method to help Teacher Bai tomorrow.
As long as he is seriously injured and shouts to see his father, his father will definitely come to see him.
After Wu Xia washed Mengmeng's face, she applied children's cream on her fair and tender little face. Mengmeng rubbed her face with her little hands. This children's cream smelled so good, it was the same as the one her mother used in the department store in the city. Bought for myself.
As Mengmeng wiped it, she thought about what Wu Xia told her. She said that if she applied children's cream every day, her face would become whiter and whiter.
Mengmeng didn't know what would happen if she became fairer, but she saw that her mother liked to pinch her little face more and more. Maybe the fairer her face was, the more her mother would like her, right? Her little hands kneaded even more vigorously, and her eyes turned into crescents. She would definitely apply the children's cream well to make her mother like to pinch her little face even more.
Wu Xia didn't know Mengmeng's little thoughts. She was washing her face. After washing, she untied her hair and combed it smooth with a comb.
"Have you finished wiping Mengmeng?"
Wu Xia saw Mengmeng stop her hand, smiled and touched Mengmeng's hair with her hand. Suddenly she saw Mengmeng turn her chubby little face towards her hand.
Haha, Mengmeng is eating well now and is getting fatter and meatier.
Hey, why is Mengmeng still rubbing her little face against her hand? Wu Xia simply couldn't resist the child's cuteness, so he pinched her little face with two fingers. It felt amazing, tender and bouncy, and she couldn't help pinching it twice more.
Hee, mom really likes Mengmeng more and more!
Mengmeng laughed happily, and then stood on tiptoes to adjust the angle of her face so that her mother could squeeze it more comfortably.
Wu Xia smiled and picked up Mengmeng, then took her back to the house. By the time he finished telling Mengmeng a story and coaxed her to sleep, it was already 9pm.
It seemed that Xu Guoping would not be back tonight, so she walked to the door and closed it.
At this time, the lights in the courtyard were darkened, and many people had gone to bed to rest. But for Wu Xia, the evening had just begun at this time. She returned to the room and sat at the table again. She had to continue writing today's novel and try to finish the 30,000 words!
She didn't know how long she had been writing, but Wu Xia felt her eyes were sore and bitter. She rubbed her eyes and looked at the clock on the wall.
It's already 11 o'clock, no, no, no, I have to go to bed quickly.
She can't ruin her pretty face and thick hair like this!
Wu Xia put away the manuscript, then stood up and did yoga for a few minutes. Just as she was getting ready to go to bed, she heard the door knock.
Knock knock knock!
"Who is it?"
Wu Xia walked to the door and asked.
"It's me, open the door." Xu Guoping's voice sounded from outside the door. His voice was a little hoarse, but there was also a bit of excitement in the hoarseness.
Wu Xia opened the door and saw Xu Guoping standing at the door. His hair was half singed by the fire, and there were a few scratches on his face, but his eyes were shining.
"Are you back? Have you eaten anything? Can I cook something for you?" Wu Xia asked.
Xu Guoping looked at Wu Xia. He stretched out his hand like a ghost, and touched Wu Xia's tender face with his rough fingers. When he saw Wu Xia's eyes widening like a cub, Xu Guoping felt embarrassed. He took back his hand and said, "Well, your face is a little dirty, let me wipe it for you."
No, Wu Xia's face was very clean, but his hands were dirty.
Xu Guoping couldn't help laughing when he saw a mark on Wu Xia's face caused by his dirty hands, and she stupidly rubbed it with her hands.
"No need to wipe it, it's already clean. This is for you."
As he spoke, he took out a long red box from his pocket. In the box was a thin gold necklace.
Xu Guoping said calmly: "I went to put out the fire today, and the owner of the gold shop insisted on giving it to us. How can we ask for things from ordinary people, so I bought them at the cost price. But I, a grown man, don't need this. For you."
He waved the necklace in front of Wu Xia's eyes.
Wu Xia looked at the necklace, and her heart seemed to be hit by something. She seemed to understand something, and looked at Xu Guoping with her big eyes without blinking.
"You don't like it?" Xu Guoping could no longer maintain his composure. He would give it to anyone at any cost. Today he went to put out a fire. He heard from his comrades that the jewelry in this jewelry store was beautiful. Many people wanted to buy it as a gift to their wives, so he also considered it. Even though it didn't hurt my face, I ran to buy one. Unfortunately, my allowance was too small and I couldn't afford a thick chain, so I could only buy the thinnest one.
Does Xia Xia dislike it?
