The group of people soon followed Yue Zhongyao to a small inn.
Qiao Mingjin felt somewhat emotional as she watched Yue Zhongyao ordering the waiters to ask for a room, hot water, a brazier, ginger soup, and hot food, while also taking very careful care of Xiao Wan'er and several younger siblings.
But now, she thinks it's pretty good and there's no need to accommodate anyone.
The room in the inn was quite large, and although it was not an upper room, it was quite complete. The guys served the ginger soup quickly. After each of them drank a cup of ginger soup, their whole bodies felt warm.
She didn't feel cold anymore. After the hot water came up, Qiao Mingjin originally wanted to take her daughter to take a dip in the hot water, but Yue Zhongyao quickly snatched her daughter away and said that he would help wash her. Xiao Wan'er was also happy
He hugged his father's neck with an affectionate look on his face.
Yue Zhongyao looked at Qiao Mingjin and said, "Go and dry your clothes on the fire pit. It's uncomfortable to be wet. Be careful of gonorrhea."
Qiao Mingjin glanced at him, then turned around and went into the inner room.
There was a large screen in the room, which divided it into a bedroom and a living room. Yue Zhongyao asked people to place a brazier inside and outside, hoping that Mingheng could go to the outside.
But Mingheng and Mingyu were used to fighting each other, and they were both siblings, so they didn't think there was anything to avoid.
However, with Mingyu and Mingqi here, it was not convenient for Yue Zhongyao.
Yue Zhongyao personally took Xiao Wan'er to the clean room, put his daughter in a wooden bucket, and helped her take a bath with his own hands.
Qiao Mingjin entered the inner room and asked Mingheng to take off his clothes. She dried the clothes for him, and then asked him to roll up the quilt in the outer room and wait for Wan'er to come out before soaking in hot water.
While Qiao Mingjin was helping her younger siblings and daughter bake clothes, she listened to the voices of the father and daughter coming from the clean room. From time to time, there was Xiao Wan'er's clear and crisp laughter...
Qiao Mingjin also had a smile on her face.
When Yue Zhongyao first came back, Xiao Wan'er was very resistant to her father. When Yue Zhongyao wanted to hug her, she always hid behind Qiao Mingjin, timidly looking like a stranger.
It didn't take long for the father and daughter to become affectionate and affectionate. From dodging to letting Yue Zhongyao get closer, to letting Yue Zhongyao hug and tease them.
Maybe this is really the nature of father and daughter. No one can change the blood relationship...
"Mother, mother!"
After a while, Xiao Wan'er's crisp voice interrupted Qiao Mingjin's thoughts.
The little thing, naked and slightly red from being soaked in hot water, rushed towards Qiao Mingjin like an arrow.
When Ming Qi and Ming Yu saw her, they both teased her, pinched her and tickled her. The little thing lay in Qiao Mingjin's arms, twisting and giggling, looking in a good mood.
Yue Zhongyao listened outside, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily raised a beautiful arc.
After they had had enough trouble, they said to Qiao Mingjin: "Wrap your daughter in a quilt quickly. It's not good if she catches a cold."
After hearing this, Mingyu grabbed Wan'er and carried her to the bed, wrapping her up in a quilt.
Mingqi and Mingheng also got wet in the rain today. After Wan'er took a bath, Yue Zhongyao quickly sent them hot water for them to take a bath.
He also asked Qiao Mingjin and Mingyu to take a bath. Mingyu and Qiao Mingjin found it inconvenient, so the two sisters just warmed themselves by the brazier, stretching out their clothes to dry them.
Yue Zhongyao was talking to Qiao Mingjin through a screen outside.
Qiao Mingjin listened quietly, and sometimes responded with a sentence or two. Most of the time, she just listened quietly.
Then I looked outside and saw that the rain was still pouring down outside, showing no sign of decreasing at all.
Qiao Mingjin felt somewhat anxious.
When the clothes, shoes and socks were almost cooked, Qiao Mingjin came out wearing a coat and handed her purse to Yue Zhongyao.
Qiao Mingjin knew that every time Yue Zhongyao went back, Mrs. Wu would ask questions. If he missed a penny, Mrs. Wu would interrogate him for a long time. In the past, even if Yue Zhongyao had paid all the benefits he received outside, he didn't know how to pay the shop fee.
Can you have money?
If she doesn't have the money to bring her back, Wu might come to her house to cause trouble for her.
Yue Zhongyao looked at the purse Qiao Mingjin handed over with an unclear expression. He glanced at Qiao Mingjin and said: "I still have some money on me. I said I will be responsible for you mother and daughter. I am not just saying it casually. In the future, I will take it from my
Set aside part of your monthly salary for your mother and daughter."
After hearing this, Qiao Mingjin looked at him. The man in front of her looked serious and unquestionable. Qiao Mingjin swallowed her words before she spoke them.
Yue Zhongyao glanced at her and then said: "Don't worry, Jin Niang, the shopkeeper of this room won't take my money. I did him a big favor, so he owes me a favor. Even if you stay here at night, he will also
They won't take our money. You can live in peace. Even if the rain stops later, don't go back. The road is slippery and it will get dark halfway back. I have to go to a village below tomorrow morning.
I can’t accompany you back, and I won’t trust you if you go back like this.”
After hearing this, Qiao Mingjin looked out the window again. The rain was beating on the eaves. The raindrops were very loud and the sound was very loud, but there was no movement at all.
It's late now, even if the rain stops immediately, it's hard to get home before dark.
Just staying in an inn?
Although that home lacked this and that, and the family was completely bare, it still had some popularity, and it was the place that Qiao Mingjin relied on in this world.
Yue Zhongyao looked at Qiao Mingjin, who had fallen silent, and his heart ached.
After a long time, he said: "There is nothing to worry about at home. Wan'er, Mingqi and Mingheng have never lived in the city, so it's good to freshen them up. If the rain stops at night, we will take them out for a walk tomorrow.
Go back early in the morning. It’s raining so hard, and the road may be washed away by water. I’m really worried about you going back like this.”
Mingheng and Mingqi listened nearby, their eyes lit up, and they both looked at Qiao Mingjin.
