Mi Wei wholeheartedly agreed and decided to change his thoughts and actions after returning home, so as to take more initiative.

“Teacher He is right,” Mi Wei said. “I know what to do now.”

Ms. Wu looked embarrassed and was in a bad mood. She said, "Now that you mention it, the deterioration of our relationship is mostly my fault. I must have done something wrong."

Mi Wei smiled and said, "You can still realize it's your own fault, so there's still room for improvement. Actually, I met your husband once before, and he's a nice guy! Putting aside everything else, on your first day of school, you complained to us that your husband went back to his hometown for the New Year, leaving you alone in Nanshi. But why don't you think about that, instead of constantly saying your husband is heartless? His mother is back in his hometown, and he only sees her twice a year, during summer and winter vacations. You didn't let your husband go back, so naturally he's very angry. Besides, you should be worried if your husband doesn't care about his mother. What kind of good person is someone who doesn't even know how to be filial to their own mother?"

Ms. Wu was speechless and dumbfounded by Mi Wei's words. She also felt her face burning and was somewhat ashamed.

Mi Wei is straightforward and outspoken. Although there may be some minor conflicts with colleagues, he would never actually do anything to harm others.

He Tiantian won't say much more; everyone understands the principle. How to do it is up to Teacher Wu.

“Oh, yes,” Ms. Wu said. “If you can be ruthless to your own mother, who else can’t you be ruthless to? After get off work today, I’ll buy some fabric and send it back to my parents-in-law so they can make some clothes to make up for the mistakes we made before.”

“By the way, if you treat his parents well, your husband will naturally appreciate it,” Mi Wei said. “If you don’t respect his parents, he will naturally feel bad. He will feel guilty and resentful towards you. Even the best relationship can’t withstand such a waste.”

"Yes, thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know where I went wrong," Ms. Wu said shyly. It was He Tiantian's happiness that made her reflect on her own marriage.

"You're welcome. As long as you put your heart into your marriage, you can be very happy," He Tiantian said. Hearing the bicycle bells ringing below, she knew Huo Yingjie was coming. "Okay, I'm going home now. See you tomorrow."

He Tiantian first opened the window, waved to the people below to show that she had heard her, then closed the window, started packing her things, grabbed her small bag, and left happily.

Amidst everyone's envious gazes, He Tiantian sat on the back of Huo Yingjie's bicycle and they went home together.

Mi Wei smiled and said, "I also need to work hard. Whether you live happily or quarrelsomely, it's still a lifetime. Why can't we make our lives better? I learned a lot from my deep conversation with He Tiantian today, and I will work hard in the future."

"I'll try my best," Teacher Wu said with a wry smile. Rome wasn't built in a day, and she didn't know if things could be improved.

Since it was still early, He Tiantian went to the shop and got some snacks and braised meat. She also went to the pharmacy and bought some medicinal herbs that she could use in cooking, such as goji berries and angelica root.

"Would you like some soup?" Huo Yingjie asked. These were all the ingredients for making soup.

"Yes, it's a bit dry. Drinking more soup will help." He Tiantian smiled. "May I ask, Lord Yingjie, do you know how to make soup?"

"Yes, I definitely can," Huo Yingjie said smugly. He himself didn't know how, but he had Zhang Aijun by his side!

The two bought some supplies to use for making soup tomorrow.

"Oh, right, I already arranged with Zhengmin to invite them over for dinner," He Tiantian said. "And we'll let them have some soup too!"

Huo Yingjie raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is Qi Zhenghan free?"

“I should be free,” He Tiantian said. “But Zhengmin will definitely come. I’m her only friend in Nanshi, and she usually comes to visit me on weekends.”

"Oh!" Huo Yingjie replied. "By the way, how's their factory construction going? When will they be able to start making cars? I've been wanting to buy a car for a long time."

"No need to buy one. Zhengmin said he'll give us the best car he can get," He Tiantian said. "Just wait!"

"That's great," Huo Yingjie said. He had learned from Xiao Xuangui that Qi Zhenghan was already dating a female college student and shouldn't bother He Tiantian anymore.

"Yes, I'm really looking forward to it," He Tiantian said. "But I can't drive, I'll have to learn."

“I can, I’ll teach you,” Huo Yingjie said. “If you can ride a bicycle, it will be even easier to learn.”

"Really?" He Tiantian didn't believe it. A bicycle is such a simple thing.

“Of course it’s true, driving a car is even easier than riding a bicycle!” Huo Yingjie said. “You’ll see when the time comes.”

The couple returned home together!

Zhang Aijun had already prepared the meal at home.

Oh dear, this bodyguard is almost turning into a nanny.

As He Tiantian ate the food Zhang Aijun had prepared, she praised, "Brother Zhang, your cooking is really good. Your wife and nephew are so lucky!"

“My partner is usually busy with work and isn’t very good at cooking, so whenever I have free time, I cook something nice for them,” Zhang Aijun said with a smile. “Li Yunzhong even said to me before that if I didn’t join the army, I could open a restaurant.”

"Well, you might not be able to handle a large restaurant, but you're perfectly capable of managing a medium-sized one," Huo Yingjie said. "By the way, I've noticed you cook; it seems like you can cook dishes from all over the world. Who taught you all that?"

"Hehe." Zhang Aijun chuckled, "My comrades in the army come from all over the country, and they can basically cook a few dishes from their hometowns. When they cook, I watch them cook, and after cooking at home once or twice, I can do it. So I know a lot more dishes."

He Tiantian gave a thumbs up and said, "Impressive! That's talent!"

Yunfeng also agreed, saying, "Our captain has the best cooking skills."

"Only those who love their family and love food can cook well," He Tiantian said, based on her observation.

Some men may not earn much money or be handsome, but they are responsible. They love their partners, children, and elders, and are willing to cook delicious meals for their families so that their wives can have less to do and their children and elders can eat well.

Such a man is also a good man.

With Zhang Aijun joining the family, the Huo family's dining table now features dishes from all over the world.

The next day, the Huo family hosted a dinner party, and Qi Zhenghan and Qi Zhengmin brought gifts along.

He Tiantian came out to greet them. Huo Yingjie had never liked Qi Zhenghan and had nothing to say to Qi Zhengmin, so he and Zhang Aijun cooked in the kitchen while He Tiantian served them.

Today I made angelica, tea tree mushroom, and old hen soup, which simmered for several hours.

Seeing that there were fresh lamb chops, Zhang Aijun made a cumin lamb chop dish.

A whole table full of food, with a wonderful aroma.
