Chapter 453: The Triplets’ Fate

"Come on, let’s take a bath with Mommy. Little Keke, you go first, and your brother can go after."

Just then, Mrs. Qin happened to walk in.

Hearing that her daughter was going to bathe the two children, she immediately said:

"You’re too clumsy, that won’t do. Go busy yourself with your own things. I’ll bathe these two children."

Fu Mingxue: ...?

Her expression was a little incredulous.

’Mom, are you even listening to yourself?’

’How am I clumsy?’

’Doesn’t she know how meticulous my job is?’

’No matter what, there’s no way I could be described as clumsy.’

Mrs. Fu paid her no mind.

She even seemed to find her an eyesore, pushing her straight out of the room. "Don’t just stand there. You can sort out the clothes in your own room. Bring out anything that needs washing."

Fu Mingxue sighed. "They’re all clean. The ones that needed washing... haven’t they already been washed?"

"Then go read your books."

Leaving her with those words, Mrs. Fu said no more.

She first found clothes for the two children, then led them to the bathroom for their bath. There was hot water, and the room was warm, so there was no risk of them getting cold.

Half an hour later, Mrs. Fu had not only finished bathing the two children, but she had also quickly bathed herself.

She used a hairdryer to dry her hair.

Previously, she had grumbled about her daughter wasting money on it—after all, can’t you just towel-dry your hair?

Not only was the thing expensive, but it used up so much electricity!

However, her daughter later told her she had made it herself and that it hadn’t cost much.

Of course, she didn’t believe a word of it. Her daughter surely knew she was frugal and was just lying to appease her.

But after she started using it—it turned out to be incredibly useful.

It was especially good for drying the children’s hair, which was dry in an instant.

It worked like a charm.

Since it had already been bought, she might as well enjoy it.

Sure enough, you get what you pay for.

Mrs. Fu had already washed the clothes Fu Mingxue had changed out of after her earlier bath.

Now, Mrs. Fu planned to wash the clothes the three of them had just changed out of.

The two children, now fresh and clean, saw their grandma washing clothes and ran to their mother’s room.

Fu Mingxue had a habit of keeping her door closed, so when she heard knocking, she went to open it.

Upon seeing the two little angels standing at the door, she immediately pulled them inside.

"Mommy!"

The two children looked around the room curiously.

Fu Mingxue noticed Qin Keke’s hair was still down.

So she let the brother play by himself while she took out a comb to braid his sister’s hair.

"Keke, come here. Mommy will put your hair in little braids."

Qin Keke happily walked over at once.

Fu Mingxue was quite skilled at braiding hair.

After all, back in her past life with those three ungrateful brats—she had done plenty of braiding for them.

She could even create intricate styles, never repeating one for a whole week.

’Right, why am I even thinking about those ungrateful brats?’

──

The three ungrateful brats Fu Mingxue had just been thinking about were having a very difficult time.

They were now a little over two and a half years old.

In her past life, Fu Mingxue had cared for them meticulously.

She had kept them spotlessly clean.

Furthermore, she had fed them very well.

But now, Fu Mingxue would surely not have recognized them.

Not only were they terrifyingly skinny, but at two and a half, they were about the size of a child just over one.

Moreover, their bodies were filthy, without a single clean spot on their faces.

The three of them were dressed in thin clothes, even in the dead of winter.

And so, all three of them came down with a high fever at the same time.

Watching the triplets burn with fever, Song Anxiao’s eyes held not a trace of warmth, only deep loathing.

After all, it was because she had to care for these triplets and her bedridden mother that no one had come to propose marriage in the last two years.
