"You're back? That's perfect. Go wash your hands and eat. You watch over them for a bit while I wash the diapers."

Once the little guy had milk to drink, he started pooping and peeing a lot, and I went through a whole stack of diapers in just one afternoon.

We need to wash them quickly and dry them on the heated wall, otherwise we'll have nothing to use tomorrow morning.

Babies have straight intestines, so they urinate as soon as they eat. The more they eat, the more they urinate, which is normal.

"Mom, this was given to me by my master's wife. There are two red ginseng roots inside. When you stew chicken again, put one in."

Sheng Xiping handed the basket in his hand to Zhang Shuzhen and gave her some instructions.

Speaking of ginseng, the Sheng family also has wild ginseng that they release in the mountains during the summer.

But that stuff is too potent. Zhou Qinglan is just a little weak after giving birth, so there's really no need to use old ginseng; it would be a waste of its potential.

Qin Qiuyan gave Zhou Qinglan garden ginseng, which isn't very potent. It's perfect for making chicken soup to nourish her body.

"Oh, your master's wife has emptied out all the good stuff in the house for you, hasn't she? Remember to be filial to your master and his wife from now on, they treat you exceptionally well."

Zhang Shuzhen took the basket and saw that there were quite a few things inside, so she carried it into the east room and put it in the cupboard.

A table was set up on the kang (heated brick bed) in the east room, and all the food was prepared.

A pot of wild boar stew with sauerkraut, a large plate of radish slices blanched in boiling water, a small bowl of meat sauce, and staple foods including flatbread and two plates of sticky rice cakes.

On ordinary days, the meals at home are just like this. It's not that we can't afford to eat better, but the days are short, and we have to take care of Zhou Qinglan during her postpartum period, so we don't have the time to fry or cook.

One stew and one side of vegetables with dipping sauce are enough to make do.

There was a lot of meat cut into that sauerkraut, and it was very oily; most families wouldn't be willing to eat it like that.

Zhang Shuzhen and Sheng Xiping sat on either side of the kang (a heated brick bed), and only then did everyone start eating.

"Xiaofeng, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you getting any meat?"

Sheng Xiping was sitting right next to Chen Feng, so he put a lot of meat into Chen Feng's bowl, but Chen Feng didn't eat a single piece. He just kept gnawing on the flatbread in his hand.

Sheng Xiping found it strange, so he asked him.

"Uncle, I don't eat meat, flatbread is fine with me. I'm easy to feed, I'm not picky, and I don't crave meat."

Chen Feng held the pancake in both hands, munching on it, tears welling up in his eyes.

This completely baffled Sheng Xiping and Zhang Shuzhen.

"Oh dear, my grandson, what happened to you? Come here, let me see who has wronged you?"

Seeing Chen Feng like this, Zhang Shuzhen felt extremely distressed and quickly beckoned to him to come and sit down next to her.

Ever since Chen Feng came to the Sheng family, Sheng Liancheng and his wife have never treated him as an outsider. They truly regard him as their own grandson, the eldest grandson of the Sheng family.

No one in the Sheng family dared to bully Chen Feng. Sheng Yunfei, Sheng Xitai, and the others all acted like uncles and aunts, protecting him at every turn.

So Zhang Shuzhen couldn't understand what was wrong with Chen Feng.

Chen Feng shook his head. "Grandma, I'm fine here."

Normally, Chen Feng would rush over as soon as Zhang Shuzhen called, but today he was acting strangely, shaking his head and refusing to go.

"What's wrong? Why is the child being so stubborn today?" Zhang Shuzhen was a little confused and didn't understand what had happened.

“Mom, I know what’s going on.” Sheng Xitai suddenly slammed his hand on the table and said.
