While the soapy water is boiling, the food is also ready.
When the seemingly simple steamed fish, sweet and sour liger meat, stir-fried Huaishan lettuce, and garlic lettuce were brought to the table, smelling the tangy aroma, Da Ya swallowed hard.
She has never smelled this kind of fragrance!
Qiao Chu asked the two children to sit down and eat together.
Da Ya took the initiative to serve the rice, holding the bowl but not daring to take down the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables.
Lin'er now looks at Daya as if she were an idol: "Sister Daya, you eat vegetables! This sweet and sour pork is delicious! This steamed fish is also delicious..."
While she was enjoying herself, Lin'er helped her pick up the vegetables.
Da Ya was so nervous that she refused even though she held the bowl in her hand. Then she felt embarrassed and felt at a loss.
Qiao Chu saw this and said softly: "You teach Lin'er to do housework and accompany him these days. You are his little master. You don't have to be restrained. Just eat."
Da Ya nodded and took a tentative bite.
Today’s dish is really delicious. Da Ya has never tasted such delicious rice, let alone such delicious dishes!
She was restrained at first, but after eating a few bites, she forgot about her restraint and ate two large bowls of rice and a lot of meat in one meal!
Even the Huaishan lettuce and lettuce are delicious as I have never tasted before!
After putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Da Ya was shocked to realize that she had eaten too much!
Her face turned red: "I...I ate too much today, I will eat less next time..."
Qiao Chu laughed: "I cooked a lot of food, you just eat."
Seeing that the little girl was still ashamed, I had to divert her attention: "The soap locust water is almost cold. How about you teach Lin'er how to wash clothes."
Daya got up immediately and prepared to help Lin'er wash clothes: "I can wash these clothes by myself, little master doesn't need to do anything."
"Da Ya?" Qiao Chu called the little girl, "If you are always so nervous and angry, I don't want to keep you. His name is Lin'er, not the little master. You are teaching him to wash clothes, not helping him
Washing clothes. Do I understand?"
Da Ya was so frightened that her hands and feet were cold, and she stood there stunned for a while. After confirming that Qiao Chu was serious, she nodded and said: "I... I understand..."
But after Qiao Chu's words, she really just taught Lin'er how to wash clothes.
Lin'er cleaned the floor in the room and soiled a set of clothes. When making soapy water, she rubbed it in front of the stove and soiled another set of clothes.
When he scrubbed away the stains and pot ash on the clothes bit by bit under Daya's guidance, his brows never relaxed!
Da Ya also pointed out to him: "Don't use so much strength. If you exert too much strength, your clothes will be easily washed, which is a pity..."
Lin'er didn't understand: "If you are weak, how can you clean it?"
"You are like this..." Da Ya had to demonstrate it herself.
"Wouldn't this make washing faster?" Lin'er continued scrubbing vigorously.
As a result, because his hand was too strong, he really rubbed his knee to pieces...
Seeing that there was a hole in the brocade trousers, Lin'er hadn't done anything yet, but Daya was so frightened that her face changed!
"Why did you ruin your pants in the wash? You..." Da Ya stood up and was about to find needle and thread. After taking two steps, she remembered that she was in her master's house. How could she know where there was needle and thread?!
Da Ya turned around and ran to her home: "You wait here, I will go home to get needle and thread to mend it!"
Lin'er didn't expect Da Ya to be so frightened, and it frightened him for a moment.
When Qiao Chu heard the sound and came over, she saw Lin'er sitting in front of the tub with a guilty look on her face: "Mother, I washed my pants... Sister Daya seems to be scared..."
Lin'er didn't understand.
Isn't it just that the pants are torn?
It's not like Da Ya washed it, so why is she so frightened?
The confusion in the child's eyes made Qiao Chu sigh inwardly: This is so unworldly!
Ordinary people have to be very careful not to mention brocade clothes, but also burlap clothes. How can they bear to tear them?
Thinking about it, in Da Ya’s memory, it’s a very fatal thing for clothes to be torn in the wash, right?
For the same thing, two children need to face different personal problems.
After thinking about it, Qiao Chu decided to give the two children a good talk.
When Daya came over and saw Qiao Chu and Lin'er sitting leisurely on the edge of the steps, she was so frightened that she paused, not knowing whether to take a step forward or turn around and run away.
Qiao Chu waved with a smile: "Da Ya, come here."
The little girl subconsciously hid the sewing kit in her hand, and then walked over in fear.
Qiao Chu patted the steps beside him: "Come, sit next to me."
"..." Da Ya sat down anxiously.
Qiao Chu stretched out his hand to gather the two children under his arms, and patted their outer arms: "Lin'er washed clothes today and tore his own pants, right?"
Lin'er nodded honestly: "Yes."
Da Ya's whole body was stiff: "I didn't teach him well, I don't blame Lin'er."
Qiao Chu laughed and patted Daya's arm gently: "Daya, it was Lin'er who broke it. Lin'er has admitted it, why do you still give him a bath?"
Da Ya Na Na couldn't speak, lowered her head and said guiltily: "I... I just feel... you asked me to teach Lin'er, this is my responsibility."
"Who said it's your responsibility to teach him?" Qiao Chu said with a smile, "Children will definitely do poorly sometimes. If it is because of their own lack of ability, then allow yourself to do poorly."
Da Ya looked confused: "..."
Lin'er thoughtfully said: "..."
"This is Lin'er's first time washing clothes. It's normal for the clothes not to be clean enough and torn. I won't criticize him for this, let alone blame you for it." Qiao Chu made his position clear.
"Just like Lin'er wiped the floor for the first time today, it took him so long to clean it, and he got very dirty. This is also normal. I will only support and encourage him, not criticize him, let alone
Blame him."
"You are only seven years old, and you are already trying your best to teach him. You are not wrong. He doesn't understand. He has to experience it himself to know that clothes are washed this way and not that way...I made it clear.
?"
Qiao Chu thought she had made it clear. She lowered her head to look at Lin'er. Seeing Lin'er nodding, she looked at Da Ya again.
But Da Ya cried so hard that she couldn't control herself, but she didn't dare to cry out.
She suppressed her voice, but her tears rolled down her face, which made Qiao Chu feel distressed.
"I...my mother has never said anything like this to me." Da Ya choked out a few words.
"If I wash and ruin my clothes at home, my mother will just scold me."
"My mother would scold me if my brother fell."
"If my brother breaks something or breaks something, my mother will only scold me..."
As Da Ya said, she finally couldn't help it and burst into tears.
Da Ya Niang, who was chasing after her, heard Qiao Chu's words and Da Ya's words. She felt guilty and embarrassed for a moment. She stood there and didn't know whether she should come forward or not...
The third update is here!
Ouch!
I seem to be gradually finding the feeling again!
It’s the last few hours of this month, and the monthly pass will be invalid after that time!
