Chapter 164 Father and Daughter in Dreamland(1/2)
The woman responsible for taking care of the children was not punished.
Maybe it’s because I’m concerned about the presence of children.
No one is willing to be a bad person in front of their children.
Perhaps the woman interpreted the old patriarch's special doting on Xiaodouzi.
So I tried my best to perform a "sincere apology drama".
All this is because Xiaodouzi is too naughty.
So much so that Xiaodouzi felt the innocence of women.
So I felt ashamed and took the initiative to take all responsibilities in front of everyone.
He said that all this was caused by Xiaodouzi himself being too playful.
This has nothing to do with the aunt who is responsible for taking care of the children.
It's just that the aunt in the child's mouth, as an adult, does not dare to be as sensible as a child and take on her responsibilities.
Maybe this is the adult world where only benefits are in sight.
In addition to blindly pursuing their own interests.
You can abandon all your original intentions that should have been pure without any scruples.
Because family sacrifices must last for at least a week.
All immediate family members of the Li family will be temporarily arranged to live in the wing of the ancestral hall.
Li Xiang is a candidate for clan leader.
The old patriarch naturally arranged an elegant room.
More importantly, Li Xiang got all wet trying to save Xiaodouzi.
I need a room nearby to take a hot bath.
In the room.
Both mother and daughter walked out of the bathroom wrapped in bath towels, and Li Xiang walked over to them and said:
"Little Douzi, Ah Zhi! You are finally fine."
As soon as I saw the little girl, I liked ringing the bell very much, and she keeps shaking the bell in her hand until now.
Li Xiang reached out and pinched his sore and uncomfortable nose and continued to smile at them.
"Yeah!" Xiaodouzi nodded with a happy smile on his face.
Zhang Ling said with a bit of shame and worry:
"You have a cold? Sorry! I didn't plan to take a shower. It's just... I couldn't help it, so I took a shower with Xiaodouzi."
Maybe it was because Zhang Ling helped Xiaodouzi take a bath for the first time.
Especially the first time I took a bubble bath in the tub.
The little girl had a lot of fun!
There were bubbles floating all over the bathroom.
Zhang Ling playfully asked the little girl to "stop making trouble", and the little girl deliberately shook the bell up and down in her hand.
When she saw that shaking the bell could also create bubbles, the little girl swayed even more cheerfully.
Zhang Ling dipped her hands into milky white foam and smeared it on Xiaodouzi's tender white face, which looked like tender tofu poured with milk.
Just this one move ignited Xiaodouzi's naughty wildness.
The little girl wantonly spilled the foam in the bathtub onto Zhang Ling's clothes.
It's really uncomfortable when wet clothes stick to your skin.
Zhang Ling had no choice but to accept the little girl's invitation and soak in the bathtub.
The mother and daughter seemed to be swimming freely in the ocean.
The little girl had never experienced this feeling before, so she deliberately extended the bathing time to an hour.
Even so, the little girl acted coquettishly and asked for a sweet kiss from Zhang Ling's mother before agreeing and walking out of the bathroom.
When Xiaodouzi heard the word "cold", he said with worry and self-blame:
"It's all my fault that Xiaodouzi pulled her mother and was greedy for the warmth and comfort in the bathtub. She couldn't get out of the bathroom as soon as possible and made her father sick."
Suddenly, the little girl remembered something, smiled happily and said:
"Medicine, I just saw there is medicine in the room. Xiaodouzi will get it for daddy."
Li Xiang quickly reminded worriedly:
"Slow down, don't run, slide carefully, it will hurt if you fall again."
Looking at Xiaodouzi’s retreating back.
His eyes couldn't help but feel a little moist.
I wonder in my heart how virtuous and capable I am?
She has never made any effort to give birth to a child, but she is happily enjoying the care and love from her daughter.
After dinner, the first god to serve is the god of dancing dumplings, which is called "Bo Po Ao Mu Bo He Fei" in Manchu.
It is placed at the head of burning incense and dancing to the gods, and a series of activities such as washing rice, shaking rice, steaming rice, making cakes, kneading, and shaman singing sacred songs are carried out to make tributes.
Xiaodouzi originally had a strong interest in these activities.
In particular, Xiaodouzi is most interested in the costumes worn by shamans.
In shaman sacrifices, various animals or gods and monsters are simulated according to the requirements of the sacrifice content.
For fear of being recognized by the dead or gods, shamans wear masks and cover their faces with the colorful tassels on their sacred hats.
Wearing a shaman suit with a bell tied around his waist, he holds the drum in his left hand and a drum whip in his right hand. With the cooperation of lifting the drum and other musical instruments, he beats the sacred drum and sings sacred songs.
Don't get me wrong.
Xiaodouzi's only interest is that shaman costumes are very novel.
I have no intention of becoming a shaman when I grow up.
It was just because Li Xiang had a cold and a fever. After taking the medicine, he felt groggy and could not open his eyes to accompany his daughter to watch the fun.
Zhang Ling is really worried about Li Xiang staying alone in the room.
I also decided to stay and take care of him by his bedside.
Of course, another reason is that the time to invite God is set at 12 midnight.
Li Xiang must be there when the time comes.
It is said that the old patriarch is too old and is not suitable to lead his clan members to worship gods at night.
Appointing Li Xiang to replace the old patriarch can be regarded as allowing him to adapt to the status of the patriarch in advance.
Therefore, Zhang Ling must try her best to ensure that Li Xiang's body recovers.
From time to time, someone made strange noises at the window. Xiaodouzi opened the window excitedly and found that the tomboy had specially invited her to watch the fun together.
The clever little Douzi looked back at Zhang Ling who was guarding Li Xiang's window.
Zhang Ling understood the child's desire to play, and smiled and indicated that Xiaodouzi could go and play.
Xiaodouzi took the initiative to reject the tomboy's invitation.
Zhang Ling was a little shocked by this.
Playing has always been a child’s nature.
At this moment, Xiaodouzi can actually resist the strong temptation caused by nature.
This mind doesn't feel like a child at all.
So she was worried about the psychological shadow caused by Xiaodouzi's accident today when she jumped into the lotus pond.
After the tomboy left, she specifically called Xiaodouzi to her and asked:
"Xiaodouzi, I remember that before that kid came, you expressed that you really wanted to go see the fun. The opportunity was just in front of you, why didn't you go with him?"
Xiaodouzi looked at Li Xiang who was sleeping soundly on the bed and only said the word "Dad".
Zhang Ling read the strong guilt in Xiaodouzi's eyes.
She guessed and continued to say to Xiaodouzi:
"You want to express that you don't want to cause us any more trouble, right?"
"Yeah." Xiaodouzi glanced at Li Xiang on the bed again and nodded.
Zhang Ling felt a burst of sadness when she received Xiaodouzi's definite answer.
Even Li Xiang, who was sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Silly boy, you can go if you want to go. If you don't know the place? Come on, daddy will get up and go with you."
Li Xiang suddenly made a noise and Xiaodouzi was so frightened that he immediately threw himself into Zhang Ling's arms.
It wasn't until she understood that it was her father's voice that she turned to look at Li Xiang and called "Dad".
At this sound, Dad seemed to be a little more joyful.
Zhang Ling said worriedly:
"No, no, go to sleep quickly. You have only slept for half an hour. You must not have recovered from your cold. Can your body handle it?"
Li Xiang couldn't bear to hear Zhang Ling say he couldn't do it.
