Chapter 249 Mission 2: Reversing the fate of cannon fodder (5)
After dinner, Chen Xun asked Yan Lizhou to boil the fire and boil water, and then directed the three cubs to wash the dishes.
Fortunately, the dishes and chopsticks she took out today were all made of wood, so she didn't have to worry about them breaking the bowls when washing them.
"I've eaten so much meat for you today, you need to learn how to wash the dishes." Chen Yun crossed her arms and leaned against the pillar, looking at the three cubs squatting in front of the basin.
"Auntie, do we really want to wash the dishes?" Yan Dawa asked, looking at the bowls in the basin. He didn't want to wash the dishes at all.
In the past, the three brothers would just leave the dishes and run away when they were full, so why did they need to wash the dishes? But today it was rare for them to eat so much meat, and their parents actually asked them to wash the dishes.
"Auntie, isn't it a girl's job to wash dishes? We are boys." Yan Erwa followed.
"Washing dishes is a girl's job? But who told us that we don't have a girl in our family?" Chen Yu said, crossing her arms.
Yan Dawa, Yan Erwa, and Yan Sanwa looked at their aunties, and then stared back at Yan Lizhou who came out of the fire, "Your aunties have already cooked, what's wrong with you kids washing the dishes?"
"Dad, boys don't wash dishes or clothes." Yan Dawa said.
"So what? What happened to your mother-in-law who raised you so much and asked you to do some work? Is it possible that you want to do nothing in the future and not be filial to your parents at all?" Yan Lizhou said, "Wash the dishes quickly.
You will also take a shower later."
"Take a bath?" Yan Dawa's eyes widened. Do they want to take a bath?
Although they, half-grown boys, would go to the river to swim when the weather was hot, they still couldn't refuse a comfortable bath.
Yan Dawa and his three brothers had no choice but to accept their fate and wash the dishes because of the bathing issue and the fact that their father was staring at them eagerly.
Chen Xun looked at the three cubs and truly felt that the original owner and his wife were really raising their children in a free-range way, and it was also a very doting kind of free-range way.
The couple is indeed busy, but because their three sons are all boys, they favor sons over daughters and indulge their sons in everything.
Yan Dawa is already eight years old, but he is still very different from other eight-year-old children in the village. He cannot do many jobs.
It was just a matter of washing the dishes. If it weren't for the fact that all the dishes used today were wooden bowls and plates, she wouldn't have dared to let these guys wash the dishes.
Of course, considering that these children have never done these tasks, she will use wooden bowls and wooden plates to serve tonight's meal.
In the future, she doesn't plan to switch to pottery or porcelain bowls before her cubs learn how to wash dishes. Porcelain is too easy to break.
The three Yan Dawa brothers rubbed the dishes with plant ash, then rubbed them with loofah leaves, and rinsed them with water and they were almost clean.
Chen Xun watched a few boys washing the dishes. Originally, they planned to just wash the dishes casually, but she stared at them and asked them to wash them. They had to wash them thoroughly.
Then Chen Yun put the dishes and chopsticks they had washed in the bamboo basket and put them away. The water on the stove was boiled. She directly took several large wooden basins and prepared to bathe the cubs.
She didn't plan for all three cubs to be squeezed into the same basin for a bath. They hadn't had a bath for who knows how long. If they wanted to be thoroughly cleaned, they had to wash them separately.
"Brother Ninth, come here and cut their hair." Chen Xun couldn't call Yan Lizhou "Prince" now, and it was not easy to call him "husband". After all, peasant women in the ancient countryside generally did not call their husbands "husband".
The head of the household or the father of the children.
She felt that calling him "Jiulang" or something like that was not good, so she might as well just call him "Brother Jiu".
No matter how you calculate it, Yan Lizhou is the ninth oldest, and he is older than her, so let's just call him "Brother".
Yan Lizhou: "..."
He walked to his wife, bent down slightly and said, "I think the title 'Brother Nine' is very good, and I can call her that way in the future."
What he was talking about was that after completing the mission and returning to their own world, he thought it was good for her to call him "Brother Ninth" and he liked it very much.
Chen Xun gave him a look, grabbed Yan Dawa, untied his hair and said, "Here, let's cut our hair."
She is the biological mother of these cubs, so why does she let them cut their hair?
It's not good to have hair that's too long. People in ancient times didn't trim their hair and nails, so it's okay for her to trim her children's hair.
Yan Lizhou is also a pure ancient. He can estimate the approximate hair length when it comes to hair trimming, so he can cut his own hair very quickly.
Chen Xun did not give the three cubs a bath. Even if she was now dressed as the mother of the three cubs, they were still half-grown cubs. If men and women could not interact with each other, she would not give them a bath.
The most important thing is that Yan Lizhou feels that as a biological mother, she does not need to bathe her son, just like he does not know how to bathe his daughter. It is up to him, the biological father, to bathe his son.
Chen Xun prepared the water and took out the soap for Yan Lizhou. She also prepared a few sets of relatively simple linen clothes for him to change into for the children after taking a bath.
Chen Yu wanted to bring out shower gel, shampoo, etc., but who told them that they were just farmers now?
What to do with something so delicate? She thinks soap is very luxurious, so it is better to be low-key - although using soap is not very low-key.
The soap Chen Yun took out was milk-scented. When Yan Lizhou bathed the children, he washed his hair and made a lot of foam.
Yan Lizhou himself was already used to using shower gel and shampoo, so he was not in a hurry when bathing the children with soap.
But there were a few Zaizai. They looked at a lot of bubbles. After they didn't know who blew a bubble, the three brothers quickly started playing with the bubbles.
"Brother, second brother, it's so fun!" Yan Sanwa circled her hands together to form a circle, then blew a bubble vigorously and laughed happily.
"It's fun." Yan Dawa also blew bubbles happily.
Although the three brothers were very naughty, they obediently took a hot bath under their father's suppression. After washing themselves inside and out, they dried their hair and bodies and put on clean new clothes.
"New clothes!" Yan Dawa jumped happily looking at the light blue linen clothes on her body, "Er baby, I have new clothes!"
Yan Dawa was happy, and so was Yan Erwa. He was also touching the new clothes on his body and was excited, "New clothes, brother, look, there are dogs on my clothes."
Yan Dawa looked at the pattern on her own clothes, then looked at her brother's pattern, and said happily, "Mine is a big insect, a tiger, oooh-"
"Wow, big bug." Yan Erwa looked at the tiger pattern on her eldest brother's body, and then looked at the soft and cute Q-version dog pattern on her own body, and she couldn't say that she disliked her own clothes.
Although his eldest brother's tiger is very majestic, his dog is also very cute.
"Hehe, mine is a bear." After Yan Sanwa got dressed, she came up to her brothers and pointed at the pattern on his body.
"Bear!"
"The big insect is the most majestic!"
“Dogs are the cutest!”
"raging!"
The three brothers got into a quarrel because of their new clothes. Yan Lizhou looked at the three brothers who had taken a shower and got dressed and couldn't help wiping their sweat.
It turns out that raising a child is so hard, and for a moment he had a psychological shadow about having a child.
But he also understood that as a relative of the emperor and a member of the royal family, his children did not need his personal care as a father.
His child will be taken care of by many servants and wet nurses, so that he, the father, will not be tired.
But to be honest, there was a moment when he felt that raising a child was really scary.
