Chapter 116: 97 Stealing Fragrance (Second Update)_2
The scene was so beautiful, Xiao Liulang could hardly bear to look straight at it…
Gu Jiao bent over in laughter.
“Huff! Huff!” Xiao Jingkong finished stomping, worked up quite the sweat, and went back to his room to get a drink.
Only then did Gu Jiao approach to wash the clothes that had been crumpled under his stomping.
Xiao Jingkong had the heart to work, Gu Jiao never discouraged him, at most she had to clean up after him every time.
Gu Jiao didn’t elevate it to a scientific parenting level, she just thought that as long as he was happy playing, it was good enough.
At this time, Gu Jiao did not know that a future warrior across six nations, all his bravery and power, stemmed from the strong childhood she had given him.
“You don’t have to spoil him like this,” Xiao Liulang said expressionlessly.
“I also spoil you very much.” Gu Jiao smiled mysteriously, fetched a clean wooden basin, took Xiao Liulang’s clothes out separately, and began to scrub gently with her not so delicate hands.
“Your clothes are not usually washed this way. Today, you put them in the basin yourself, and he happened to see it.”
The clothes they three wore were coarse linen, stomp washing didn’t affect them, but Xiao Liulang’s service attire was silk and cotton. Gu Jiao used a dedicated wooden tub to clean it for him, and she was always very gentle.
Because she was gentle, she was slow, washing his one piece of clothing was equivalent to washing everyone else’s clothes.
But Gu Jiao never said anything about this.
Xiao Liulang was still sunk in the great shock brought to him by her words, “I also spoil you very much,” and then he saw her carefully and earnestly washing his clothes. Those soap-soaked white hands seemed to be grasping not his collar, but his heart.
For a moment, he felt as if their relationship was developing in a direction beyond his control.
Xiao Liulang broke out in a cold sweat.
It was not possible.
They were just husband and wife in name only. One day, they would have to part ways.
They two… absolutely should not develop the slightest thing for each other.
At dinner, Xiao Liulang sat on the bench while his dried white service attire was flying in the wind, making him a little bit irritated.
After dinner, Xiao Liulang bathed Xiao Jingkong and then took an axe to chop firewood in the backyard.
Gu Jiao was cleaning up the kitchen.
The old lady was secretly enjoying some dried bayberry in her own room.
