Time Travel: A Fisherwoman Goes to the Sea to Raise a Baby

Chapter 472 The Difficulty of Waking Up (4 Seas)

"Sanchuan! Summon the four seas!"

She called out and then scooped the cooked wontons into the warm fish bone broth on the stove, sprinkling on a small handful of bright green scallions.

The delicious aroma of wontons wafted through the courtyard, as if hooked by a hook.

Not long after, the courtyard gate was pushed open again, and Xu Anyang rubbed his eyes, slipped on his shoes, and staggered in, still half asleep.

His hair was a mess, his eyelids were drooping, and there were two obvious dark circles under his eyes. He walked with a limp gait, clearly not fully awake.

Following the scent, he wandered aimlessly to the kitchen doorway, as if in a daze.

She stared longingly at the wontons bubbling in the pot, and took a deep sniff.

Xu Yi glanced at him, and while ladling wontons into her bowl, casually asked, "You went beachcombing last night, what time did you go back to sleep?"

Xu Anyang took the steaming bowl of wontons she handed him, ignoring the heat, and plopped down on the small stool in front of the stove.

The firewood still lingered inside, making people feel warm and cozy.

He held the bowl, first taking a deep breath of the fresh aroma of the fish wontons, as if his soul had returned to its place. He muttered to himself, "What time is it? It must be the end of the Chou hour, right? Anyway, the tide started to rise, so I packed my things and came back."

He sighed deeply: "I should have known better than to go. I only slept for an hour before I had to get up again."

As he spoke, he blew on the bowl, reached for a spoon, and eagerly bit into half of a wonton.

The delicious broth burst in his mouth, scalding him so much he gasped for breath, but he couldn't bear to spit it out, letting out a muffled, satisfied sigh.

"You already got back late, and you've been busy all day. If you don't get some rest, do you still want to grow taller?"

Xu Yiyi glanced at him sideways. Just two months ago, Xu Anyang was half a head taller than her.

Unexpectedly, she grew taller first.

This made Xu Anyang depressed for several days.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely grow taller than you," he said defiantly.

Xu Yiyi gave a soft hum and carried the bowl of wontons to the main room.

"Has the world risen yet?"

She looked at the open door and heard San Chuan's furious voice coming from inside.

A little while later, he came out with a pained expression: "Big sister, I can't wake Sihai up. He's huddled under the covers, whining and refusing to come out..."

Xu Yiyi didn't even flinch when she heard this.

She went straight to the basin, took his towel, wet it with cold water, and wrung it out.

San Chuan watched from the side, shrinking his neck from the cold.

She took the cool, damp towel and went into the inner room. Sure enough, the little brat was curled up in a ball, like a little shrimp, tightly wrapped in the blanket, with only his fluffy head showing, and he was making unwilling whimpering noises.

Without saying a word, Xu Yiyi reached out and gently lifted a corner of the blanket, revealing the little guy's rosy, warm face as he slept.

Before Sihai could react, he covered her with the towel and wiped her cleanly.

"Ow!"

Sihai, who had been whining just moments before, suddenly jolted awake, his eyes widening instantly like a startled little rabbit, and he scrambled out of bed on all fours.

Her chubby little hands haphazardly wiped the water off her face, and now she was wide awake.

"Big sister! It's cold!"

"Otherwise, can you get up?"

Xu Yiyi said bluntly.

Seeing that his younger brother had been humiliated, Sanchuan walked in with a smile and helped him put on his clothes.
