Although school ends at noon, studying requires a lot of brain power and energy, which makes the children feel hungry faster. So, Lu Jueyu packed two scallion pancakes, a few slices of beef jerky, two vegetable and chicken fresh spring rolls, and a bottle of infused water she prepared in her space.
After she wrapped the snacks with oil paper, Dong Li entered the kitchen and asked, "Foster mother, is there anything I can help you with?"
Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "Foster mother is already done here. You go and wash up first."
Dong Li nodded, scooped some hot water into the bucket, and went to the bathroom to wash up. When he came out of the bathroom, Li Chenmo and Dong Huang were already awake and they took turns washing up.
After breakfast, Li Chenmo went to the pig pen, while Lu Jueyu and the children went to water the vegetable garden. With the help of Dong Li and Dong Huang, the work was completed faster.
When the sun rose higher, Lu Jueyu stuffed snacks and bamboo bottles into their school bags and said, "Foster mother has prepared some snacks and water for you two. Remember to eat them later, and be careful on the road."
Dong Li nodded and said, "We are going now, Foster mother."
Dong Li and Dong Huang carried their school bags and walked to school together, while Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo went to harvest vegetables. After a while, Bajie will come over and hand over the reservation order to them.
When the Dong siblings walked to school, they found that the villagers had been staring at them and whispering. Although they feel uncomfortable, they don’t want to cause trouble to their adoptive parents. So, they tried to ignore the villagers and quickened their pace.
When they arrived at the intersection, they saw Li Jingqian, Li Jingxu, and Lu Wenyi waiting for them. Seeing them coming, Li Jingxu waved to them and said, "Cousin, what took you so long to come? We have been waiting for a while."
Hearing Li Jingxu call them cousins easily, Dong Li smiled. As they approached, he said, "Sorry to keep you waiting. We’ll come early tomorrow."
"It’s alright, brother." Lu Wenyi said with a yawn.
Seeing that he kept yawning and walking with his eyes half closed, Dong Li smiled. He carried his school bag on his front, squatted down, and said, "Xiaoyi, come up, Brother will carry you to school. You can sleep for a while." ƒгeewebnovёl.com
No matter how sensible Lu Wenyi is, he is only a four-year-old child. When he heard that he could sleep for a while, he quickly climbed onto Dong Li’s back and muttered, "Thank you, brother. I’m very sleepy. Xiaomu was grinding his teeth when sleeping yesterday. I couldn’t sleep well."
Dong Li supported his bottom with his hands and said, "Mhmm, go to sleep."
