After putting on his clothes, Su Chen started the fire that was about to go out.
He didn't go to the kitchen until the fire was strong again.
After boiling hot water in the kitchen, she washed up.
Su Chen made a bowl of egg soup with the only three eggs at home.
He also stir-fried a cabbage vermicelli and cut some salted vegetables.
As for the staple food, he only found some cornmeal and cornbread.
With limited family resources, he could only use cornflour to make a paste and heat up the bread on the steamer.
Breakfast was ready.
After returning to the room, Su Chen first helped the little girl put on her clothes.
Then, he prepared to wash her face.
He did not expect the little girl to be so sensible.
She rolled up her sleeves, picked up her toothbrush, and said cutely,""Brother, Nan Nan can do it herself!”
"Alright then!"
Su Chen worriedly poured some hot and cold water into the basin.
"Remember to wash your face after brushing your teeth. I'll bring you some food."”
"Okay, I know, brother!"
When Su Chen heard the little girl's answer, he got up and left the room.
He stared at the door for a while.
As expected, the little girl was brushing her teeth and washing her face.
Only then did she feel relieved and go to the kitchen to get the food.
Su Chen picked up the egg soup from the stove and brought it along with the food to the old square table in the room.
"Brother, it smells so good!"
The little girl, who had already washed up and was sitting on a chair at the side, swallowed her saliva as she smelled the steaming hot egg soup.
His eyes were so satisfied that they were squinting into the shape of a crescent moon.
"Little gluttonous cat!"
Su Chen smiled and scratched the little girl's nose with his hand, passing the spoon on the table to her.
"Eat slowly, be careful of the heat!”
"Yes!"
The little girl nodded obediently.
Then, she scooped a spoonful of fragrant egg soup and brought it to Su Chen's mouth. She said obediently,"Brother, eat first!"
"You eat it. Brother doesn't like egg custard!”
Su Chen looked at the little girl swallowing her saliva and shook his head in amusement.
Unexpectedly, the little girl pursed her lips and looked at him with a firm gaze."If Brother doesn't eat, Nan Nan won't eat either!”
As she spoke, she put the spoon into the porcelain bowl of egg soup in a fit of pique.
She looked aggrieved.
"Can't Brother eat it?!"
Looking at the little loli's angry appearance, Su Chen rubbed her little head helplessly.
"Really?"
"It's true."
"Then, Nan Nan, feed Brother."
Seeing Su Chen nod, the little girl scooped up a spoonful of egg custard, got up from the chair, stuck out her little butt, and brought the egg custard to Su Chen's mouth again.
"Yes!"
Su Chen took a sip from the edge of the spoon and smacked her lips."It smells so good."
"Alright, Brother has finished eating. Nan Nan, quickly eat.”
"Brother is fooling a child!"
Seeing that Su Chen was only putting on an act, the little girl pouted and her voice sounded like she was about to cry.
"I'm scared of you! Don't cry, don't cry!"
"Brother, just eat it!"
Seeing that the little girl was about to cry, Su Chen had no choice but to open his mouth wide and eat a spoonful of egg soup.
"Be good!"
Seeing that Su Chen was finally willing to eat, the little girl revealed a satisfied expression.
Then, he began to scoop up the egg soup with a spoon and eat it in small bites.
During this period, every time she ate a mouthful, she would reach out her small hand to feed Su Chen.
Su Chen felt helpless.
She could only lie and say that she felt uncomfortable after eating too many eggs. Only then did the little girl give up.
As he ate the cornbread, he ate the cabbage, vermicelli, and pickled vegetables.
And a bowl of cornmeal paste.
Su Chen looked at the satisfied little girl and could not help but sigh.
He didn't expect the little girl to be so happy eating a bowl of egg soup.
What a terrible era!
He was really too poor.
Even eggs had become a luxury.
Thinking back to the time when he had eaten thousands of dishes in one meal, Su Chen felt inexplicably ashamed.
……
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Su Chen added more coal to the stove in the room.
He was about to clean up the table.
Who would have thought that the little girl had already put the plates, bowls, spoons, and chopsticks into a basin in the time it took to turn around.
He was carrying the large basin to the water pipe outside the door with great difficulty.
It looked like he wanted to wash the dishes.
"Put down Nan Nan quickly. What are you doing?”
Su Chen was shocked, afraid that the little girl would fall with such a heavy thing.
"Ah!"
She placed the bowl on the ground and tilted her head to look at Su Chen. She said naturally,""Washing the dishes."
"Washing the dishes?"
Su Chen quickly walked to Nan Nan's side and picked her up.
She said with both anger and amusement,"With my brother here, there's no need for you to wash the dishes."”
"That's not right!"
Darling fiddled with her little fingers and looked at Su Chen strangely."Brother said that you should cook and wash the dishes.”
As she spoke, the little girl broke free from Su Chen's embrace and jumped to the ground.
He turned on the tap very skillfully.
"Hualala!"
The cold tap water fell into the basin, washing the bowls and chopsticks inside and washing Su Chen's heart.
The little girl put her hand into the cold water and washed the dishes very seriously.
Her small hand instantly turned red.
F * ck, what a beast.
Su Chen stared blankly at this scene.
Even though he had never raised a child before, he could not help but curse.
Was there such a brother in this world?
Letting a three-and-a-half-year-old wash the dishes in cold water?
