She didn't want to explain anything to such a big kid.
Even if he is the hero of this article, so what? If she doesn't rely on him for support or living, she doesn't need to fawn over him at all.
Now as long as he doesn't abuse these two little guys, he can live a long life until he dies.
When I got home, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
Jiang Mengning said to Huo Haowen: "Comrade Xiao Huo, please boil some water."
She had to wash and bathe Nian Nian first.
Huo Haowen was not surprised at all that his stepmother would instruct him to work.
He's used to it.
Silently put down his things and went to the kitchen.
Seeing that there were unwashed dishes on the kitchen table, I first collected the dishes and put them in the sink to wash them, then scooped water from the water tank and poured it into the pot.
Then light the match and light a fire with thatch.
His movements are skillful and neat, and he can tell that there is no shortage of work to do.
Jiang Mengning admired this child's temperament and emotional stability.
Not complaining at all.
As expected of the male protagonist.
After the water was boiled, he said to his stepmother, took the lunch box, and went out to the cafeteria to get food.
People in family homes can also go to the cafeteria to get food, but it's all rationed.
Jiang Mengning filled the water in a bucket and brought it to the simple bathing shed built outside.
"Nian Nian, can you take off your clothes?"
"meeting."
Nian Nian answered super loudly.
Then he quickly took off his clothes.
Not to mention, the little guy's skin is quite white, but his face is darker.
Jiang Mengning put on gloves, put Nian Nian into the bathtub, and began to give her a bath and wash her hair.
This kind of treatment is only given to Nian Nian.
She had never even helped her mother take a bath in her life, and now she was helping a strange little girl take a bath.
Well... the little girl is more blessed.
Nian Nian was still quite dirty. After washing for a while, the water turned black.
There is also a lot of mud produced.
Finally, I washed my hair and applied a lot of shampoo, so my hair was fragrant.
After taking a shower, wrap her wet hair in a towel to absorb some of the moisture.
Then put on the clothes you just bought today for her.
"From now on, little girls must wear small panties, and they can no longer bare their buttocks."
Jiang Mengning said while putting on her underwear.
The little guy has no mother to control him and often doesn't know how to wear underwear.
Such sanitary conditions are very bad.
Even children are prone to getting sick.
"Okay, got it mom."
Niannian likes her mother very much now.
It's best for her mother to bathe her, wash her hair, and buy her delicious food.
"Well, you're so good. Let's wear a new dress today. The little girl wants to look beautiful."
She likes to dress up herself and also likes to help little girls dress up.
Niannian changed her clothes and looked completely different.
Sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses rely on gold.
What a lovely little girl.
After changing her clothes, she found a stool for Nian Nian to sit on.
He took the comb and combed Niannian's hair.
The lice in her hair are her main concern and must be removed.
After the little girl's hair was cut short, it was particularly smooth to comb.
It is also easy to comb out lice.
The grate slowly slid down from the top of the head. As soon as the comb came off, the grate was densely covered with lice and a small number of lice eggs.
Because of the water, the lice are less flexible and can't move much.
I almost got trypophobia after watching it.
Jiang Mengning frowned. She had trypophobia and slight mysophobia.
It is really……
"vomit."
I couldn't hold it back anymore and retched loudly.
She really couldn't stand this.
"Niannian, I'm sorry! I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach."
Nian Nian knew that her mother loved to be clean, so she quickly brought the grate over.
"Mom, don't move. Just let me do it. I can."
She skillfully used her fingernails to kill all the lice on the grate, and then combed her hair from top to bottom.
Every time I comb it, there are a lot of lice on the grate.
Nian Nian spared no one and strangled them all to death.
Jiang Mengning suddenly felt sad when she saw the little girl like this.
For such a young child, the self-care ability is already very good, so he must have suffered a lot.
She has lost her mother since she was a child, so she must have never experienced maternal love!
Somehow, she picked up the comb again and combed her hair.
Anyway, if you wear gloves, you won't be afraid of those bugs coming into contact with your skin.
She repeated the action many times, and later on, she was able to accept it calmly.
Finally, most of the lice on my head were gone.
It's just that the lice eggs can't be combed out, so I have to clean them off one by one with my hands.
"Nian Nian, that's it for today. I'll do it for you another day when I'm free. You have to remember to comb your hair with a comb every day, so there will be less and less lice."
"Okay, Mom."
At this time, she also felt that her head felt much lighter.
"Mom, my hair is not itchy at all."
"Well, the lice will definitely stop itching. Do we remember to wash our hair frequently in the future? It's hot and we sweat, so we have to shower and wash our hair every day. If it's cold in winter, we have to wash our hair every three days, okay?"
"I know mom."
"Well, you're so good, let me help you dry your hair."
Finally, she put a butterfly hairpin on Nian Nian's head, and the little girl immediately became fashionable.
She happily ran circles in the yard.
"Wow, the butterfly is so beautiful."
At this time, Huo Haowen came back from cooking.
The little girl ran to her brother happily.
"Brother, look, my mother bought it for me. Does it look good?"
Huo Haowen almost didn't recognize his sister.
Is this still my sister? Definitely not a little fairy!
He stared at his sister in surprise for a long time before he finally realized that this was really his sister.
Was it dressed like this by the stepmother?
He looked at his stepmother with dark eyes.
What on earth is this woman going to do!
She wouldn't have been so kind before.
If something goes wrong, there must be a monster, and he will not be fooled by these small favors.
He led his sister back to the house without even looking at his stepmother.
Jiang Mengning let out a laugh.
This boy is so rude!
in the kitchen.
Huo Haowen laid out the food he brought back.
There are only two dishes on the table.
Stir-fried vegetables, stir-fried bean sprouts, and then three servings of rice.
The food provided to family members in the military canteen cannot be large in amount. In this era, food is just enough to eat, and it is good to be full, but don't think about how good it is.
Fortunately, there is meat in the canteen every week, which is considered a family benefit.
Huo Haowen handed a bowl of rice to his sister, and he also took a bowl. Then the two of them went to the corner, sat on the small bench, and plucked the rice from the bowl.
Jiang Mengning: "..."
By the way, it’s written in the original work.
The original owner didn't like eating at the same table as her children, so she asked the two children to squat in a corner to eat, and they were not allowed to eat vegetables.
Why!
What a headache.
She sat at the table and waved to Nian Nian.
"You two come over and eat. You are not allowed to squat over there to eat from now on. You both eat on the table."
What does eating while squatting look like?
Nian Nian now listens to her mother in everything, whatever her mother says.
She held the bowl, stood up and passed over.
Huo Haowen was not as easy to deceive as Nian Nian. He didn't think his stepmother would be so kind as to let him come to the table for dinner. She must be planning something, so he was stubborn and refused to let go.
Although the food is very fragrant...
