Gu Lingxiao patted his shoulder, "Why aren't you delivering dumplings because of the rain?"

Xiao Wang chuckled and said, "I absolutely have to deliver it! I'd go even if it were raining knives!"

Lu Zhixia looked up at the sky and felt that it was indeed going to rain. She would have to bring in the laundry when she got back. She had originally planned to air out the quilts today, but it seemed she would have to do it another day.

Law enforcement office.

When Zhou An'an returned from outside, she felt completely drained. Sometimes she thought that anyone who wanted to do the job could do it, and she just wanted to go back and lie down.

The cleaning lady came over and said, "Xiao Zhou, a soldier came to see you today!"

Zhou An'an immediately thought of Xiao Wang, but looked around and didn't see anyone.

"That person came and asked a question, then left." The aunt leaned closer and asked slyly, "What's your relationship with that person? He looked pretty good, with a baby face."

Zhou An'an is now certain that it was Xiao Wang who came.

"he--"

"Tell me, what's the relationship?" The freshman leaned forward again. "I promise I won't tell anyone."

"He's my new boyfriend," Zhou An'an said, then lowered her head shyly.

The aunt laughed happily, patted her arm casually, and said...

"Sure! Either don't date at all, or date someone good-looking!"

Zhou An'an felt a surge of pride. "You also think he's good-looking, don't you?"

Auntie said, "The young man is good-looking, and he's a soldier with a pretty good job. You made a good choice."

Zhou An'an also felt that she had good taste. She had originally just wanted to try looking around, but later she found that they were quite compatible in everything they did. They were both people who loved to eat and gossip. In short, they were a good match in every way.

"Where is he? He left after asking, without leaving a word!"

The aunt picked up the broom from the ground. "She didn't say anything, but I guess she'll be coming to find you again later!"

Zhou An'an thought that was probably true. She figured that if Xiao Wang came, he would definitely ask her to go out to eat or bring food over, which meant she wouldn't have to eat lunch.

Feeling quite pleased with myself, I returned to my seat and watched as they went out to eat or took out their lunchboxes. Although I was hungry, the thought of Xiao Wang made me forget my hunger.

A tenement building.

After Lu Zhixia finished cooking the dumplings, she realized she didn't have any lunchboxes. She thought about buying a few more tomorrow, so she took a medium-sized bowl, put the dumplings in it, and then covered them with a white cloth.

Then I poured them some garlic sauce, put it in a plastic bag, and also prepared chopsticks and small bowls for them.

"Alright, let's see what's missing?"

After checking everything, Xiao Wang said, "Okay, that's enough!"

Lu Zhixia: "Are these dumplings enough for the two of you?"

Looking at the full bowl of dumplings, Xiao Wang thought, "I can't just get a bigger bowl, otherwise what will they eat?"

Realizing he was being shameless, he quickly shook his head to indicate he didn't want it.

Lu Zhixia watched as Xiao Wang carried the basin downstairs with a bouncy gait. He was down in the blink of an eye.

Lu Zhixia placed the plate on the table and went back to her room. She saw Gu Lingxiao lying there with his legs curled up; his legs were too long.

This was the first time she realized that her bed was really too small.

"Alright, dinner is ready."

"Um!"

Gu Lingxiao got out of bed, stretched, and lay down on his wife's bed. It felt wonderful.

Su Lan put six dumplings in her daughter's bowl and gently instructed the child.

"Tell Mom if you don't have enough to eat."

“Okay, Mom!” Zhou Yuanyuan replied sweetly.

Lu Zhixia took a bite of the dumpling and thought it tasted better than the dumplings she had made before. She immediately decided to ask Director Yu tomorrow what breed of pig was slaughtered today.

She had a bold idea in mind: in addition to the wholesale fruit business, she could also start a livestock farm. This way, she would have a continuous supply of meat and her business would not be affected by the price increase of meat.

Tong Shujia brought her son to her husband's factory. This was her second visit, and she found that the factory had changed a lot over the past ten years.

The security guard went in to call for them, and they stood outside waiting.

Lin Xiaoyi leaned against the wall casually, reaching into his pocket to take out a cigarette, but then, afraid his mother would hit him, he had to take his hand out again.

"Can't you just stand still?" Tong Shujia scolded her son.

Lin Xiaoyi could only stand up straight and whine to his mother, "Okay, I know I was wrong, I'll stand properly."

Tong Shujia fanned herself with a fan, pondering how to get her daughter out of the law enforcement office as soon as possible, while also preventing her husband from meeting the woman who looked like her sister.

That woman is a potential problem. Even if she's not my sister's child, I don't want them to meet.

office.

After hearing the gatekeeper's report, Lin Hongzhi had no choice but to put down his work and go out to see his wife and son.

"Factory manager, your son really doesn't look like you," the gatekeeper joked. "He didn't inherit any of your features!"

What was said unintentionally was taken to heart by the listener.

Lin Hongzhi has always felt that his son doesn't look like him, and neither does his daughter.
