Jiang Yu noticed that Xiao Lu Yang actually didn't know how to dress himself. He saw that his younger sister, Qing Qing, already knew how to dress herself, so he felt shy. He didn't want adults to dress him, so he pretended he could do it himself.
However, Jiang Yu didn't expose the little man's pride. She pretended to do it casually and taught the little guy how to put on his clothes, bit by bit.
Xiao Lu Yang learned very attentively, silently remembering everything in his heart.
After getting dressed, it was time to brush teeth and wash face.
Jiang Yu handed them the toothbrushes and toothpaste, letting them do these things themselves.
"Third brother, do you know how to brush your teeth? I can squeeze the toothpaste for you." Lu Wan Qing had also noticed that her third brother didn't know how to dress himself at this age. She found it a little bit cute.
Xiao Lu Yang's face turned red again upon hearing this. He quickly said awkwardly, "I... I can squeeze the toothpaste myself."
Squeezing toothpaste was such a simple thing, how could he not do it himself? His sister would look down on him.
Lu Wan Qing: "..."
"Oh." Lu Wan Qing felt a bit disappointed. She looked at Xiao Lu Yang and the small tube of toothpaste in his hand and said, "Then squeeze it yourself. Brush well, okay?"
Xiao Lu Yang nodded: "Mhm."
Lu Wan Qing watched Xiao Lu Yang squeeze the toothpaste himself and then brush his teeth. Her third brother actually knew how to squeeze toothpaste. Why did she feel a strange sense of loss?
A moment later, Lu Wan Qing shifted her gaze and looked at the row of toothbrushes in front of her...
So, which toothbrush was hers?
It was Xiao Lu Yang's first time at their home. Just as they were about to wash up, Mom gave Xiao Lu Yang a new teacup and a toothbrush, but where was hers?
As Xiao Lu Yang brushed his teeth, he secretly glanced at his sister Qing Qing. Since yesterday, Qing Qing had been acting so capable, as if she knew how to do everything. This made him feel immense pressure.
Xiao Lu Yang inexplicably wanted to know if there was anything Qing Qing couldn't do.
However, after watching for a while, Xiao Lu Yang suddenly noticed that Qing Qing seemed to be staring at the toothbrushes and cups with a strange expression.
"Aren't you brushing your teeth?" Xiao Lu Yang's mouth was full of foam, but he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
Three-year-old Lu Wan Qing looked at her third brother, her little brows furrowed, and she said with a serious, annoyed tone, "I forgot which toothbrush is mine."
Xiao Lu Yang: "..."
Xiao Lu Yang was stunned. He never expected that the clever and capable Qing Qing would forget which one was her toothpaste!
"I'll go ask Mom!" Lu Wan Qing said the next moment.
As she spoke, Lu Wan Qing ran out: "Mom, Mom!!!"
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yu, hearing her daughter call her from the living room, immediately responded.
"Which toothbrush is mine?" Lu Wan Qing asked earnestly.
Jiang Yu was also puzzled: "Don't you remember your own toothbrush?"
Lu Wan Qing: "..."
Jiang Yu walked towards her.
Lu Wan Qing was nervous.
Jiang Yu led her daughter to the washroom and personally picked up Lu Wan Qing's toothbrush and cup. "Here you go."
"Thank you, Mom." Lu Wan Qing said happily.
Jiang Yu was stunned again, then raised her hand and pinched her daughter's cheek: "What's wrong with you these two days? You seem to have suddenly become so smart, and you even thank Mom now. It's really not easy."
Lu Wan Qing's heart skipped a beat. She almost forgot to maintain her disguise. What if her parents found out she was reborn?
"Mom, it hurts. Don't pinch my cheek!" Little Lu Wan Qing quickly pretended to be a child, twisting her little brows and impatiently pushing her mother's hand away.
Jiang Yu smiled and nodded: "Okay, then you and Yang Yang, hurry up and brush your teeth. After brushing, you have to eat. Otherwise, the food will get cold."
"Okay." Lu Wan Qing quickly agreed.
Lu Wan Qing turned around, squeezed toothpaste, and quickly brushed her teeth.
Xiao Lu Yang also reacted and quickly sped up. He finished brushing his teeth first, rinsed his mouth, and washed away all the toothpaste foam.
"I'm done!" Xiao Lu Yang said eagerly, afraid he would be beaten to it by Qing Qing again if he was a step slower.
Lu Wan Qing naturally wouldn't compete with Xiao Lu Yang. She brushed her teeth normally, then washed her face.
Xiao Lu Yang also finished washing his face.
They went outside together.
"Are you washed up? Come and eat quickly!" Jiang Yu called out with a smile.
Lu Ming and Lu Ze were already at the table, each holding a bowl of rice and eating quickly.
Lu Yi Zhi smiled, served a bowl of rice, and placed it in front of Xiao Lu Yang. He said with a chuckle, "Yang Yang, eat while it's hot. Take whatever dishes you like. Don't be shy."
"Thank you, Uncle... Dad." Xiao Lu Yang looked at Lu Yi Zhi and instinctively said thank you, but he hesitated and changed his words mid-sentence, remembering his current identity.
Lu Yi Zhi also smiled and nodded: "Yes, eat quickly!"
Jiang Yu also served a bowl of rice and handed it to Lu Wan Qing, saying gently, "Qing Qing, eat quickly too. You can go back to sleep after eating."
Lu Wan Qing quickly nodded: "Mhm."
Lu Ze's eyes widened in shock: "Why can they go back to sleep after eating?"
He usually got hit for oversleeping, and it hurt!
"Qing Qing and Yang Yang didn't sleep well last night and only fell asleep this morning. They are going back to catch up on sleep, not to oversleep like you!" Jiang Yu understood what her second son was thinking at a glance and quickly explained.
Lu Ze: "..."
"Hurry up and eat, don't dawdle, or you'll be late for school." Lu Yi Zhi also urged the two brothers.
Lu Ming and Lu Ze subconsciously sped up their eating.
After Lu Ming and Lu Ze finished eating, they went back to their rooms to get their schoolbags and then left the house with their bags on their backs.
Lu Wan Qing watched them leave on their own and felt a subconscious worry...
She kind of wanted to follow them, to escort them to school. Her older brothers were still children, what if they encountered kidnappers on the way?
Fortunately, her rationality quickly returned. Although there were many kidnappers, her older brothers probably wouldn't encounter them. At least, in her memory, their family had all grown up safely and happily, without such accidents.
After her elder brothers left, Lu Wan Qing and Xiao Lu Yang also finished their breakfast.
Full and satisfied, they didn't really feel like sleeping anymore. In fact, their stomachs felt a bit full.
"Rest for a while first, let your food digest a bit, and then go catch up on sleep," Lu Yi Zhi reminded them.
Xiao Lu Yang nodded: "Mhm."
Lu Wan Qing looked at her third brother, then at her parents. From yesterday to today, she hadn't had much time to observe her parents carefully, always worrying about her third brother.
Now, she finally had the time. Lu Wan Qing looked at her parents and inexplicably felt her eyes sting and her heart ache.
She suddenly understood how Lan Lan and the others felt. Having parents really made a difference. It felt so good to have both parents around!
