Chapter 1068: Chapter 1073: Tangyuan Gets Sick
After dinner, Qiao Duo’er went to bed early.
Tan Zhenghong hugged his wife, blood pumping with desire. It wasn’t really his fault; he was at an age of restless energy and couldn’t control himself.
Qiao Duo’er warned in a low voice, "If you dare to mess around, from now on, I’ll sleep with the baby, and you can sleep in the crib."
The little bed was quite big; Tan Zhenghong could definitely fit if he curled up.
"Duo’er, I think you’re the best woman in the world, both beautiful and understanding..."
Compliments flowed from Tan Zhenghong like they cost nothing. Qiao Duo’er quickly interrupted, "Even if you talk flowers today, you won’t get your way."
If it happened again, separation wouldn’t be far off, and besides, Tan Zhenghong’s back wouldn’t be able to take it if it happened too often.
Tan Zhenghong sighed, hugging his wife and closing his eyes, but his breathing was still heavy.
"Did you take some medicine you shouldn’t have today?" Qiao Duo’er asked seriously.
They’d already been intimate several times at the hot spring, and he had even carried her down from the mountain. Now he was pestering her again; it was not normal at all.
Tan Zhenghong took a deep breath, "You don’t know how tempting you are right now, holding back until this moment has been really tough."
Qiao Duo’er gritted her teeth; she was breastfeeding, for goodness’ sake!
It was a sacred and serious matter. How could it have a different meaning to Tan Zhenghong?
The next morning, Tangyuan cried softly, a sound like a teasing kitten that stirred affection.
Normally, Tangyuan should still be asleep at this time.
Qiao Duo’er immediately went to check, changed her diaper, but that didn’t help, so she picked up her daughter and started feeding her by the bed.
Usually greedy, Tangyuan had no appetite today, drinking just a couple of mouthfuls before turning her head away.
"Ah Hong, touch her, Tangyuan feels a bit hot." Qiao Duo’er said anxiously.
Tan Zhenghong immediately came over, touched Tangyuan’s forehead, and compared it with Green Group’s.
"She’s indeed running a fever. I’ll go call Uncle Wu to have a look."
A three-month-old baby’s illness can’t be neglected.
Qiao Duo’er stopped him, "The fever isn’t severe right now, let’s observe a bit longer. Ask Granny Su to boil some mugwort water, and later we’ll give Tangyuan a bath."
If they could control the temperature with physical cooling, it was better not to take medicine; after all, every medicine has its side effects.
Of course, if the fever got worse, then medicine was necessary, because it might lead to other complications.
"I’ll go right away." Tan Zhenghong acted immediately.
Qiao Duo’er first wiped Tangyuan’s face with a warm towel, then fed her some warm water.
Tangyuan felt a bit better but still didn’t sleep soundly.
Seeing her in discomfort, Qiao Duo’er said with self-reproach, "It must be because the two kids were fussy yesterday and caught a chill by accident."
She had brought these two children into the world, yet she hadn’t fulfilled her duty to take care of them properly.
Tan Zhenghong soothed, "It’s normal for children to have minor illnesses. How could anyone never get sick?"
He had also heard it said: frequent minor illnesses keep major ones at bay. Maybe getting sick occasionally wasn’t such a bad thing.
