Chapter 264: Nothing Will Come of It
The other children also dropped the tools they were using to scoop water and surrounded Ye Ke.
Ye Ke squatted down and took care of each child one by one.
He took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped their stained little faces.
"That's amazing! You guys are taking such good care of Caicai!"
The director has cleared a small vegetable patch in the yard, where green onions, bok choy, tomatoes and other vegetables are grown. The well-behaved children come to check on the growth progress of these vegetables as soon as they get up every day.
Seeing that they liked it, the director simply assigned them the task of watering and pest control, giving them one more thing to do in this small yard.
Sure enough, the children were very happy.
They all claimed the part they were responsible for.
Some people even gave names to the seedlings they were responsible for.
Several children surrounded Ye Ke and walked towards the vegetable garden. Tongtong, as the oldest in the group, chattered and introduced Ye Ke to the vegetable garden.
"This is a chicken leg. It's about to produce two fruits. Grandma said we can eat it when it turns red." Tongtong pointed at the tomato and slurped her saliva.
She said loudly that it had to turn red before it could be eaten, and she didn't know whether this was a warning to others or to persuade herself.
Tongtong pointed to another tomato plant next to the chicken leg and complained in a low voice, "The egg isn't working hard at all. It doesn't even produce green fruit."
The corner of Ye Ke's mouth twitched. Is this going to attack Ji's whole family?
She didn't know how to grow vegetables, so she could only gently coax him: "You should sing and dance for the eggs every day. Maybe if they are happy, they will bear fruit!"
A bunch of kids believed it and surrounded Ye Ke, asking, "Really? Really?"
Ye Ke nodded firmly.
The children immediately gathered around the "egg" and started sang songs to it.
At the same time, the body kept twisting, and no one knew what kind of dance it was doing. Ye Ke, who had a generation gap with him, said he couldn't understand it, but the little guy was jumping around, and it looked very cute.
Ye Ke looked at the "chicken leg" next to the "egg" with a worried look on his face and reminded: "Don't step on the chicken leg."
By then, everything will be lost.
A group of children stopped in panic, one of them tripped over himself and fell to the ground with a cry of "ouch".
The child next to him immediately wanted to go over to help, but was tripped by the falling child's flapping feet and fell on the child with a "bang".
Seeing this, Tongtong sighed like a little adult, shouldered the responsibility of an older sister, and reached out to pull the two children. However, the youngest sister behind her grabbed her clothes, and her body tilted and she fell to the ground.
The youngest sister looked at her three older sisters on the ground in confusion.
I think they must have their reasons for doing this.
She couldn't be left behind either.
Then he stuck out his little butt, supported himself with his knees and slowly squatted down, and finally sat on the ground.
She also smiled innocently at her sisters.
The vegetable field that had just been watered was wet, and you could get your hands covered in mud if you touched it.
What’s more, there were four children who fell to the ground.
The four of them were huddled together and lying on the ground, their faces, which Ye Ke had just cleaned, were now all dirty.
Ye Ke smiled and shook his head, then helplessly pulled them up one by one.
The dean heard the noise of play outside, put down the cloth in his hand, walked out of the house, and saw four dirty little clay figures.
"Ouch." The dean frowned and said softly, "How come they all turned into little cats~"
A group of children came over with smiles on their faces, talking to the dean in childish ways.
"Sing and dance for the eggs." This is the truth.
"The egg didn't listen and tripped me." This is confusing.
"I want to eat eggs today!" This is a combination of anger and greed.
"Hehe~" This is silly laughter.
The dean didn't expect these children to be able to explain themselves clearly, so he looked at Ye Ke who was standing aside.
Ye Ke described the situation just now.
The dean reluctantly led a group of people into the house to take a shower and change clothes.
Ye Ke also went in to help. The children were very obedient. They didn't cry or make a fuss. They just stretched out their hands and let the two adults undress them, water them, wipe them, and dress them.
In a short while, they turned into four clean little babies.
The dean doesn't need to make any arrangements for any of the four.
Everyone took their own clothes, put them in the washing basin in the yard, and started rubbing them with a "hey, hey, hey" sound.
The youngest sister obviously didn't have enough strength, so Tongtong moved a chair for her and asked her to sit on it and step on her clothes with her feet.
Seeing that her sisters were washing clothes obediently, the little sister restrained her desire to step in the water. She stepped on the clothes lightly, for fear of splashing water on her sisters' faces.
It is obvious that such a young child cannot wash clothes cleanly.
After the children finished washing for the first time, the director took over and washed it for the second time. The director checked it carefully to see if there were any omissions and rubbed the dirty places vigorously.
Ye Ke also wanted to go forward to help, but the dean stopped her.
"No, just two pieces of clothing. Don't get your hands dirty. I'll just wash this side, and they'll have to finish the rest themselves."
Sure enough, after the director finished cleaning, the children gathered around the washing basin again.
Complete the last process in an orderly manner.
The little people were carrying the clothes that had become heavy due to water. They worked in pairs, frowned, and cheered themselves up with "Hey hey hey".
With their cooperation, the four sets of clothes were successfully dehydrated.
They cheered, held hands and circled around in celebration.
The dean came forward to help them hang up the clothes.
Ye Ke thought, no wonder she always felt that the children were fair and tidy every time she met them. She used to wonder how the director managed to take care of six children alone and still keep everyone clean.
So that’s it.
After the dean finished hanging the clothes, she finally had time to exchange a few words with Ye Ke. She told her about the recent situation in the dean's courtyard. "Le Le and Xiao Feng have both gone to school. Le Le also said that she got first place in the class in their last exam. When this semester is over, she will definitely bring back a certificate."
The dean thought of Lele's confident look at that time and couldn't help laughing.
"Your mother sent some fabric over a while ago, and I made a few sets of clothes for the children. I want to make some hair ornaments with the leftover fabric and sell them later, which will be a source of income."
Ye Ke was stunned for a moment. Ye Wenhui had never mentioned this to her.
She smiled and replied, "That's a good thing. Let's save some for Lele and the others first, and then sell the rest."
The little girls in the yard all had short hair before, but it has grown a little longer recently, now about ear-length. I believe that soon they will all be able to tie their hair up.
The dean hummed softly.
Ye Ke thought there was nothing urgent in the evening, so he told the dean that he wanted to stay for dinner, just in time to wait for Lele to come back from school.
The dean was about to get up and go to the kitchen to prepare something, but was stopped by Ye Ke again.
