As it grew darker, Wen Shutang calmed down the three children and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

After the family had dinner, Wen Shutang asked Xiao Yizhuo to heat up some water to give the children a bath. Xiao Ye trained every day and had to sweat a lot every day.

"You bathe Aye and I'll bathe Wan'er."

Xiao Yizhuo nodded, picked up the kettle in his hand, poured hot water into the wooden basin, and adjusted the water temperature.

When Xiao Ye heard that he could take a shower, he was obviously very happy, as he had already felt that he smelled of sweat.

"Aye, go take a shower with your father first. I'll take Wan'er to take a shower after you're done." Wen Shutang pointed to the room.

The little boy takes a bath quickly, but Xiao Wan is a little girl, so she needs to wash her hair carefully, so it will definitely take longer.

Xiao Yizhuo nodded slightly and took Xiao Ye into the room.

Wen Shutang and Xiao Wan were waiting outside the door. Xiao Wan sat on a round stool, supporting his head with his hands and looking up at the moon in the sky.

"Mom, sometimes I really feel like you're not a mom."

Wen Shutang was sitting next to her. When he heard this, his body stiffened for a moment. Did Xiao Wan notice something?

"Why do you say that?"

Xiao Wan frowned and shook her head: "I don't know either, I just feel that my mother is completely different from before, whether it's her temperament or her behavior, it's like she's become a completely different person."

The more Wen Shutang listened, the more shocked he became. Xiao Wan was, after all, a little girl, yet she had such a delicate mind and could pay attention to such details.

"Wan'er, don't think too much. No matter what I was like in the past, I will definitely be good to you three in the future." Wen Shutang reached out and touched her head.

Xiao Wan turned her head and looked at Wen Shutang, a smile appeared on her face: "Well! Compared to the past, I still like my mother better now."

Wen Shutang also smiled and said, "We are going to the clinic to memorize the questions tomorrow. Are you nervous, Wan'er?"

Xiao Wan shook her head, not a trace of fear on her delicate face: "Don't be nervous, I will definitely be fully prepared."

"That's good." Wen Shutang's worries were relieved a lot after hearing her words, and then he looked up at the bright moon.

Not long after, the door of the room was opened, and Xiao Yizhuo came out first with a large wooden barrel. He poured the hot water in the basin outside the door.

Xiao Ye followed behind him with wet hair, and looked at Wen Shutang with a pair of bright eyes: "Mom, I'm done."

"Go and wipe your hair quickly. The night breeze is still a little cold. Be careful not to catch a cold." Wen Shutang stood up, picked up a handkerchief from the table beside him and handed it to Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye took the handkerchief, smiled, and wiped his hair a few times: "It's okay, mother."

"That won't work either. Rub it well. If you're sick, you have to take medicine. Does Aye want to take medicine?"

Thinking of the black medicine with a bitter taste, Xiao Ye shook his head subconsciously, and the action of wiping his hair became more serious.

"There is still some hot water. You use it first and I'll boil some more water." Xiao Yizhuo put the wooden barrel into the house and handed the kettle of hot water to Wen Shutang.

Wen Shutang took the things and nodded: "Okay, Wan'er, come here."

Xiao Wan stood up, dusted herself off, and followed Wen Shutang into the house.

After Wen Shutang poured hot water into the wooden barrel and adjusted the water temperature, he turned to look at Xiao Wan and said, "Okay, Wan'er, take off your clothes."

Xiao Wan pursed her lips and slowly unbuttoned her clothes. Thinking of Wen Shutang helping her take a bath, she felt a little embarrassed for some reason.

Noticing the shyness on her face, Wen Shutang smiled knowingly and walked to her, bending down to help her take off her coat: "It's okay, don't be shy."

Children's skin is very tender, and it looks even whiter when steamed by hot air.

Wen Shutang gently helped her wash her long hair: "Wan'er's hair is really good. How about I braid it into a nice braid for you tomorrow?"

"Okay." Xiao Wan's face flushed, she nodded and responded softly. Her body was a little stiff. This was the first time her mother gave her a bath, and also the first time they were so close.

Xiao Wan was a little at a loss for a moment.

Wen Shutang noticed that she seemed a little nervous, so he lowered his voice and started a random topic: "Wan'er, do you like animals very much? I see that the two rabbits at home are very close to you."

"I like them. The fur of both little rabbits is very soft. But Ah Hui has a bad temper. He must eat tender leaves. If the leaves are not fresh or too big, he won't eat them. Xiao Bai's personality is better. He likes to have his ears touched the most. His eyes are like rubies, very beautiful." When Xiao Wan mentioned this, she immediately opened up and introduced the habits of the two rabbits to Wen Shutang in a torrent of words. She was much more relaxed than before.

Wen Shutang responded to her with a smile and listened to her patiently.

Xiao Wan's cheeks flushed and she felt a little excited. It had been a long time since anyone had spoken to her like this. She really felt the warmth of her mother from Wen Shutang. Xiao Wan suddenly became a little greedy for this warm feeling.

After taking a shower, Wen Shutang dried Xiao Wan's long hair thoroughly before letting her leave the room.

A little girl's body is precious, so she needs to be treated with pampering.

"Okay, Wan'er, go ahead. Go back to the room to tidy up and then you can have a rest." Wen Shutang picked up the towel beside the wooden barrel and wiped the water stains on his hands.

Xiao Wan nodded, holding the corner of her clothes tightly with her fingers, a hint of shyness appeared on her face: "Thank you, mother."

"It's okay, there's nothing to thank for."

"Then it's a deal, mother will comb my hair tomorrow." Xiao Wan raised her head with hope in her eyes.

Wen Shutang pursed his lips and smiled: "It's agreed that when we go to town tomorrow, I will dress Wan'er up beautifully."

After getting Wen Shutang's definite answer, Xiao Wan smiled, nodded vigorously, then turned and walked out of the room.

Wen Shutang watched her leave before standing up to clean up. There wasn't too much water splashed on the ground, so it wasn't difficult to clean up.

When Xiao Yizhuo saw Xiao Wan coming out, he went into the house to help Wen Shutang clean up. He moved the wooden barrel out and poured out the cold water inside.

It was already late at night when the two of them cleaned up the house, and Wen Shutang lay down on the bed and fell asleep quickly.

The next morning, she and Xiao Yizhuo woke up together.

As soon as Xiao Yizhuo opened his eyes, he saw Wen Shutang quietly getting up and trying to get out of bed over him.

Wen Shutang didn't expect Xiao Yizhuo to suddenly open his eyes. She was so scared that she almost lost her balance and sat on Xiao Yizhuo.

Her current posture was indeed a bit awkward. In order to get out of bed, she spread her legs and half-straddled Xiao Yizhuo, with her hands on the sides of his face. At first glance, one would think that she wanted to do something to Wen Shutang.

Xiao Yizhuo raised his eyebrows: "Madam, are you so energetic so early in the morning?"

Wen Shutang closed his eyes. Help! Why did she always do such embarrassing things recently?

"Don't get me wrong, I just want to get out of bed." She took a deep breath and planned to just step over. It was already awkward anyway, so she might as well just continue to be awkward.

But she was obviously a little anxious. One leg was standing on the ground, and the other leg was tripped by the pushed-up quilt, and her knee knelt directly on Xiao Yizhuo's lower abdomen.

Wen Shutang's whole body froze, and all he heard was a heavy groan in his ears.
