70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 354: Bedwetting

Xu Mumu: "....." Almost forgot this little brat is just a year and a half, forgot all about bed-wetting.

Seeing the little guy sleeping so sweetly, Xu Mumu twitched her mouth but resignedly got up, fetched some water to clean him up, and then moved him to Xu Minglei’s bed.

Then she came back to change the bedding. Although the quilt has been used for several years and isn’t that soft anymore, Xu Mumu washed it with water and hung it out to dry on the clothes rack.

She also changed the bed mat, which she had previously put away. The old one in the room was taken out and laid down. This mat was already cleaned quite well by Qian Ying, so there was no need to clean it again before using it.

Laying on the bed, Xu Mumu soon fell asleep again, exhausted from busily working for half the morning.

When she lay down again, she glanced at her watch—it was only half-past six. This little troublemaker sure knows how to cause a ruckus, and he hadn’t even woken up after being cleaned.

When morning came, Xu Minglei was kicked awake by his little brother. How did his little brother end up on his bed?

This bed is where he and his big brother sleep, so it’s bigger and has space for both him and his little brother to sleep and play comfortably.

"Little brother, why are you on my bed?" Xu Minglei rubbed his jaw. The little brother’s kick was quite strong, it hurt. If the little one wasn’t so small, he might have gotten angry.

Xu Minglei was a bit annoyed, but the little guy didn’t understand what his big brother was saying and thought he was being invited to play, so he kicked his brother again.

Xu Minglei sat up, looking all resigned to his fate, put on his clothes, and then dressed his little brother as well. When Xu Mumu brought the little guy over, she also brought his clothes.

Watching his little brother not sitting still while getting dressed, Xu Minglei: "....."

He wondered if he was like this when he was younger; his big brother must have had the same feelings back then.

"Why did you bring your brother to your room to play so early?" Madam Chen asked, tossing some firewood into the stove while watching the two brothers.

"I don’t know either, I just woke up and found my little brother on my bed," Xu Minglei replied weakly, leading the little guy to the kitchen.

"I saw your sister’s quilt outside. The little one probably wet the bed." Madam Chen chuckled, preparing a basin of hot water for the brothers so Xu Minglei could take it outside and help the little guy wash his face.

After the brothers washed up, Xu Minglei walked to his sister’s room and glanced towards the window. His sister was still sleeping, so it’s better not to disturb her.

Xu Minglei had good intentions, but unfortunately, the little guy saw his sister’s room, ran to the door, and started pounding on it, remembering to call for his sister.

"Sis, sis." The little guy enunciated clearly.

Xu Minglei was stunned to hear it. Little brother can call for sister now, what happened last night? The little brother hasn’t even called him second brother yet. Xu Minglei felt a bit sour inside.

Xu Mumu opened her eyes, glanced towards the door, feeling an urge to throw a pillow at the two brothers. Can’t people get a good sleep anymore? She just wanted to have a good sleep, why is it so hard? That little brat is the real culprit. Once she wakes up, she’ll take good care of him.

"Sis, you keep sleeping. I’ll take the little brother away." Although Xu Minglei didn’t hear his sister scolding, seeing her unhappy, sleepy face, he decided to obediently take the little brother away to avoid trouble.

The courtyard outside quieted down temporarily. Xu Mumu hugged her pillow and went back to sleep. She hadn’t slept well last night, and with the little guy wetting the bed in the morning, she just wanted to sleep in peace now.

Fengfeng was carried away, not happy at all, kicking as if he still wanted to find his sister, but his brother was holding him back.

"Fengfeng, let’s go take a walk outside, okay?" Xu Mumu directly took hold of the little guy and walked him outside to prevent him from disturbing his sister’s sleep at home.

The little guy was coaxed outside, and Xu Mumu fell asleep not long after.

Soon after, the house became lively again, as it was time to go to work, and the little kids all got up too.

Xu Mumu, with a headache, crawled out of bed. It’s just too crowded, can’t even have a good sleep.

"Mumu, didn’t sleep well last night again? Here, I made you two poached eggs, eat up." Madam Chen said with heartache, specifically serving Xu Mumu a bowl of poached eggs. There were two eggs in the bowl, along with some fermented rice, looking and smelling delicious.

"Thank you, Grandma." Xu Mumu said with a smile. By the time she got up, breakfast was already over at home. Madam Chen didn’t call her during breakfast, aware she didn’t sleep well.

The sweet poached eggs warmed her heart as she ate, and just then, the little guy rushed in from outside, holding an already ripened tangerine.

"Sis, sis." The little guy placed the tangerine in Xu Mumu’s hand.

"For me?" Xu Mumu asked gently.

"Yep, Aunt Cuihua specifically gave them to us, and the little guy brought one to you first." Xu Minglei said with a laugh, feeling a bit sour inside. The little brother never brought him any and completely ignored him.

"Little brother is so obedient. I’ll peel a tangerine for you to eat later." Xu Mumu smiled, patting the little guy’s hair. The little fellow had been running outside, and now his forehead was sweaty. Xu Mumu gently wiped the sweat off with a handkerchief.

Xu Xue, while nursing her little brother with formula, looked on enviously. Fengfeng can now call grandma and sister. At the breakfast table in the morning, Madam Chen had already bragged about it.

Then looking at her own brother, who was still weak and couldn’t even speak, his voice sounded like a kitten meowing when he cried, nothing like Fengfeng who cries loudly.

"Sis, I’m going up the mountain with Tiedan and the others to look for mushrooms. You keep an eye on little brother." Xu Minglei entrusted his sister with the task of taking care of their brother.

"Alright, you all go, come back soon, and don’t go too far." Xu Mumu nodded with a smile. With the little guy calling her ’sister,’ she was happy to play with him, despite his naughtiness.

"Got it, sis." Xu Minglei said happily, then dumped out the tangerines from the basket and left with the basket and a small stick.

Xu Mumu quickly finished the poached eggs in the bowl, wanting to give the little guy some, but he wasn’t interested, his eyes fixed solely on the tangerine, not knowing how to peel it himself.

After washing the bowl, Xu Mumu pondered where to take the little guy to play. Looking at the weather outside and recalling the moon she saw last night, today seemed to be another sunny day, so it’s best not to go out. Going out would certainly lead to getting tanned. In the past few days, Xu Jiaojiao and the others going up the mountain so often had gotten a shade darker.
