Thinking this, her eyes couldn't help but fall on him as well.

The little girl's gaze made Gu Jinchen feel rather awkward. His ears turned red quickly, but he hid it well without anyone noticing.

"I'll go call them back," Gu Jinchen said with a light cough.

"Okay," she replied.

As expected, this lunch once again received unanimous praise from the three.

After the meal, Luo Ge didn't idle around and asked Gu Jinchen to help make dough for dumpling wrappers. She prepared some egg and cabbage filling to wrap dumplings.

She was getting the ingredients ready now so that the dumplings could be wrapped and cooked in the evening.

Seeing that she started busying herself shortly after just eating, the two little ones followed along, trying to help.

Seeing that they couldn't really lend a hand, they obediently stood by the side and watched longingly.

"You don't have to keep yourself busy all the time. There isn't much housework," seeing Luo Ge, Gu Jinchen thought about it and still said a sentence.

He wasn't the kind of master who liked to oppress the sick.

Hearing this, Luo Ge was taken aback for a moment, not expecting him to say this.

"It's fine. These are all light chores. I feel like my health has improved by a lot now," knowing that he meant well, she didn't say anything.

She did feel like her body was much more agile now, and her limbs were light and comfortable.

She didn't feel so relaxed this morning. It seems like it was after drinking the well water in the small courtyard in her space ring that this happened? Also, she felt like the well water was much sweeter than before.

Seeing her say this, Gu Jinchen didn't say anything else.

...Just like that, they spent a simple day. But when the little couple lay in bed to rest at night, there was still some awkwardness.

But after falling asleep, it became different.

As usual, the little wife would unconsciously curl up like a kitten and snuggle tightly into his embrace.

"Sigh," facing the pitiful Gu Jinchen, he could only lightly sigh.

It was another night of strengthening his willpower...

...Time flew by, and there were only two or three days left before the date they had agreed upon.

Today, Gu Jinchen went up the mountain with the Li Hunter from the village to hunt more game to add to the upcoming celebratory feast.

Earlier, he would go up the mountain with Li Hunter to hunt every other day. He would catch wild game on the mountain to sell in the city for silver.

Each trip would take one or two days. The two little ones were already used to it.

In the past when Gu Jinchen went up the mountain, he would leave the children in Auntie Wang's care next door. Gu Jinchen would give them some wild chicken and rabbit meat when he came back to show his gratitude.

But now with Luo Ge around, that was no longer necessary.

"Auntie, we're going to Tie Dan's place."

Da Bao pulled his younger brother along to tell Luo Ge before they left.

Now that Luo Ge had fully recovered, she was planning to take apart the bedding and take it to the river to wash. Hearing the child say this, she agreed.

"Go ahead. Pay attention to safety. Auntie is going to the river to wash bedding later. Come home early. If I'm not home when you're back, just wait at Tie Dan's place first."

She didn't feel assured leaving the children home alone with no one there. Tie Dan's grandfather had poor health and stayed home all day. He could also help keep an eye on them.

"Okay." Hearing this, the child obediently answered and went out. 𝐟r𝗲𝚎𝚠e𝐛no𝘃𝗲𝐥.c𝗼m

Not long after, Luo Ge took the bedding covers and went to the river.

What a coincidence, Auntie Wang was there too.

"Luo Ge, you've come to wash bedding too?" Seeing Luo Ge arrive, Auntie Wang said with a smile. She moved her things aside and said, "Come, come next to me. This spot is good."

Because of the few children, Luo Ge also got to know Auntie Wang. Tie Dan took after his mother.

Auntie Wang had an outgoing and straightforward personality. She was very easy to get along with, and Luo Ge quite liked her.

In the past two days, she had also learned a lot about the village from Auntie Wang during their chats. It was Auntie Wang who brought her to this river where they washed their laundry.

"Auntie Wang, you came really early," hearing her say this, Luo Ge carried over her basin and squeezed next to her with a smile.

"Oh my, of course I had to come early. That bunny Tie Dan is so naughty. He's already so big but still wets the bed. I was afraid if I didn't come early, the smell would come out of the bedding. That's why I rushed here early," Auntie Wang complained.

"Pfft," hearing Auntie Wang's complaints, Luo Ge couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Auntie Wang also found it pretty amusing. As she laughed, she continued to share gossip with Luo Ge on her own.

"Let me tell you, that little bunny is so thin-skinned about his bedwetting. He doesn't allow anyone to talk about it.

He followed me all the way here, staring at me for fear that I would leak the news."

"I've only just went back briefly. He's making me hold it in so badly!"

Although she said this, Auntie Wang was also trying not to hurt Tie Dan's pride by not speaking too loudly, just loud enough for Luo Ge to hear.

"Mom!" But right after she finished speaking, they suddenly heard a familiar voice behind them.

They turned around to see that Tie Dan was there with the two little ones following behind them.

They didn't know when the children had caught up. It was probably right after Luo Ge had left home.

Judging by Tie Dan's struck-by-lightning expression, he seemed to have heard their entire conversation.

"It's okay Tie Dan. Older Baby and Second Baby still wet the bed too," the two little ones were still trying to comfort him as they sensed his unhappiness.

"....." After the two little ones spoke, there was two seconds of silence at the scene.

Tie Dan couldn't hold it in anymore. His lips quivered as he burst out crying loudly.

"Mom, you broke your promise! Wahhh...."

As he cried louder and louder, something seemed to have dropped out of his mouth, which he subconsciously caught.

When he took a clearer look, his crying became even louder. His expression was extremely aggrieved.

"Mom...my tooth fell out...."

With his mouth wide open from crying, his loose bottom tooth that had fallen out was accidentally revealed. He held the tooth he had just lost in his hand.

With red eyes, a face full of snot and tears, he looked...well, it just made people unable to hold back their laughter.

"Pfft, hahaha...." The first one to lose control was Tie Dan's mother. She laughed so hard that she had to hold her waist, unable to close her mouth.

"Oh Egg, you broke wind while talking. Let mother take a look to see if your tooth is bleeding," she laughed until tears came out, but still didn't forget to check if Tie Dan's lost tooth was bleeding.

The little bunny had said a few days ago that his tooth was loose. Who would've thought that it would fall out now.

"It's fine, it's normal for teeth to fall out. They'll grow back," seeing this, Luo Ge said with a laugh.

Hearing this, Tie Dan's crying instantly stopped. The teary snot was still on his face as he hiccuped from crying.

"Auntie, really?" He had just felt like his tooth was about to fall out, which was why he brought Older Baby and Second Baby here to find her.

Children don't understand these things. He was worried that once his tooth fell out, he would be toothless forever.

Now hearing Luo Ge say this, the worry in his heart lessened. His attention was now fully on this problem. After this incident of his fallen tooth, he had already forgotten about the earlier conversation about his bedwetting.

Luo Ge: "Yes, really."

"Of course it's true. Would your auntie lie to you? Hurry and bring Older Baby and Second Baby back. Don't play by the river," Auntie Wang added.

"Go back and rinse your mouth with water. Throw that tooth under your bed. Remember that, okay?" Auntie Wang continued after seeing that Tie Dan was no longer concerned about his bedwetting.

Hearing this, Tie Dan nodded, "Then we'll go back now."

He wiped his nose and pulled one child in each hand as he walked back.

The Gu and Wang families didn't live far from the river. They could still see their homes from there.

Seeing the children go back, the two women also quickened their pace to wash everything in their hands as fast as possible to return home earlier.
