Chapter 396: Washing Up
To take care of White, Mama Le deliberately used the local language when she said this so that White also understood what she said. His heart warmed up, and his limbs weren’t as stiff.
Little Brother Le smiled and replied,
“Okay, I understand. I promise to complete the task.”
Mama Le suddenly remembered something. She turned around and asked
White,
“Perhaps it’s impolite of me to ask this question, but I think for the sake of convenience, I’ll take the liberty to ask if our beautiful Gegar can complete the task of washing up by herself.”
White pursed his lips, and a hint of obscurity flashed in his eyes.
“She can’t do it alone. She needs someone to watch her.”
Ever since the last time she fell into the water, a fear of water had been left in her heart. This was a bad thing, but there was also a good thing. Every time she took a shower, she could only take a shower. Therefore, White would let her take a shower with her clothes on. This way, she could avoid the awkwardness between men and women and also wash her clothes.
When Mama Le heard that they were showering like this, she didn’t agree with them. It was fine if it was a boy, but if it was a girl who was wearing clothes, how could she clean her private parts?
Moreover, Gegar was already fourteen years old. Logically speaking, she should be at the age where his period came. Although she looked so thin and malnourished, she might not have had her period so early.
However, she was old enough, and there would be a time when she would come back. If she hadn’t learned how to take care of herself, should she let White, this little boy, help her clean up? This was too difficult. Therefore, she had to cultivate Gegar’s ability to take care of herself as a girl as soon as possible.
After hearing about Gegar’s condition from Le Wan, Mama Le had already called back to China and asked a doctor friend about how to deal with a similar situation.
It was a pity that, based on current medical technology, brain damage was irreversible. Therefore, if the treatment was delayed, there was basically no possibility of recovery.
The only way was to send the children to a professional school and provide them with intervention, guidance, and education. In this way, even if their brains couldn’t recover to the level of intelligence of a normal person, there was still a high possibility that they could learn to take care of themselves.
Therefore, in order to take into account the various situations that were about to come, an age like Gegar couldn’t be delayed any longer.
Mama Le made up her mind and said to White,
“I don’t think you can always leave her behind and accompany her for the rest of your life. After all, there are differences between men and women, and there will always be times when it’s inconvenient. So, it’s time to learn to let go. Otherwise, even if we send her to a special school later, it will be a kind of torture for the two of you.”
No matter how smart White was, he was still a child who hadn’t seen much of the world. There were many things that he didn’t know without anyone teaching him. The reason why he knew about the school for the disabled was that he met a kind tourist once and the other party told him about it.
It was a pity that they had spent all their energy just to keep themselves alive. Therefore, even if White wanted to achieve this, it could only be a fantasy.
Now that he heard Mama Le’s words, White tightened his grip on Gegars hand, causing her to let out a puzzled “ah” and look at him curiously.
White didn’t care about Gegar’s emotions. Instead, he thought about what Mama Le had said. On this point, he had to admit that Mama Le’s words made sense, so he finally relented.
“That would be troublesome, but if Gegar’s reaction is too strong…” White paused for a moment.
“She might do something unexpected, so please be careful, Madam.”
He was a little worried that Gegar’s extreme resistance would hurt Mama Le.
However, Mama Le wasn’t worried.
“It’s okay. We’ll take it step by step. Today, we’ll try to let me help her wash up while you stand outside the door with your back to her and comfort her softly.
Is that okay?”
White thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Therefore, Mama Le and Little Brother Le brought the siblings up to the second floor.
Le Wan brought out three cups of freshly squeezed orange juice from the kitchen and handed them to Big Brother Le and Zhai Jing respectively. She took a sip of the remaining glass and placed it on the coffee table before lying down on the sofa.
After walking for half a day, it was still a little tiring.
Le Wan heard the commotion coming from upstairs and shook her head.
“It seems that Mom will have to worry about this..”
