Ling Ran put down his phone and sighed, "Wife, it's true that honest people suffer the most. We've been busy protecting this and that, and the Xu Tong couple have been silent and working silently. We've ignored them. Let's talk to them this afternoon! If they really have any difficulties, we'll help them if we can."

Zhou Xiang nodded. "Yeah! Big Brother Xu doesn't like to talk, and Big Sister Xu listens to him, so they always keep things to themselves. That year, when they walked over, I wanted to ask, but it felt like I was just scratching someone's surface. Besides, we weren't familiar with each other yet. This time, they should be willing to speak up, right?"

At lunch time, everyone came back and Zhou Xiang took a look at Xu Tong and his wife. They were still as invisible as before.

Amidst the laughter of the crowd, the two of them only smiled faintly.

Professor Chu spoke as soon as he took a bite, "Ling Ran's cooking skills are pretty good!"

Ling Ran immediately accepted the praise, "That's right, in order to win my wife, I have to master all kinds of skills."

Zhou Xiang reached out and pinched it.

Ling Ran immediately changed his words, "However, my wife loves me and doesn't care if I can cook or not. I couldn't bear to see her suffer with me, so I learned from the canteen chef for a while. These are just trifles, nothing to worry about."

Zhou wanted to pick up the bowl to eat, not knowing this shameless person.

Professor Chu laughed, "Yes, marrying a wife is about loving her. Ling Ran is absolutely right."

They looked at each other healthily. Did they also need to learn cooking? If they didn't learn, they wouldn't be able to get married in the future?

Haohaodangdang spoke directly, "My dad is getting married, so of course he has to learn cooking. We will get married in the future, so it would be nice to marry a wife who can cook."

Everyone at the table laughed, "Hao Hao Dang Dang, so you think you can get married now?"

The two children grabbed the ribs and gnawed on them, "Of course, everything should be taught from a young age!"

Xie Chen continued, "If marrying a wife starts at a young age, then you should marry one now to play with you."

The two children were stunned and immediately shook their heads, "No, girls are so hard to please."

As he spoke, he looked at his younger and older sisters.

Ling Xiaotong glanced at them sideways, "Humph! Boys are so stingy."

Haohao was unconvinced, "Look, look, that's it."

Ling Xiaotong wanted to speak.

Zhou Xiang coughed lightly and said, "After dinner, go back to your room and face the wall for half an hour, then come and tell me why you were punished."

"oh."

"oh."

…

Xie Chen was pinched lightly by Lu Jing, and teased the child casually, causing the child to be punished.

Xie Chen quickly grabbed his girlfriend's hand, it hurts!

After the meal, everyone sat down to drink tea, wanting to hear what Sanbao had to say about his regrets.

Yan'er, who had shared the same hardship, had already criticized his younger brothers and sisters.

"You three don't love each other. The younger sister doesn't act like a younger sister and always takes advantage of others. The older brother doesn't act like a older brother and isn't generous enough.

And Yuanyuan, you often ask your sister Tongtong to play with you, and you always say you don't want to play with boys. Over time, there will be a rift between the three of them. Do you think your aunt will punish you?"

Yuanyuan was stunned. Her aunt usually treated punishment as a game. If she really punished someone, she would specifically target their weaknesses.

"Brother Yan'er, I, I didn't mean it. If I don't play with sister Tongtong, who will I play with?"

"Four people can play together! Just like you and I playing together, aren't there five of us playing together?

You can't ask Tongtong to stop being friends with Haohao, that would be considered as sowing discord, and Auntie would be furious."

"I, I, what should I do? My aunt will definitely find out."

"Auntie must have known about this, which is why she got angry when the three of them weren't getting along. You and Auntie should accept the blame and also say that from now on, everyone will play together and there won't be any distinction between boys and girls. We are all brothers and sisters, not classmates, so there's no need to separate them."

Yuanyuan nodded and said, "I'll listen to Brother Yan'er. I'll go and apologize to my aunt."

The three babies also lowered their heads. If they formed cliques, their mother would not let them off easily.

The first one to admit her mistake was Yuanyuan, which surprised Zhou Xiang. "Why?"

Yuanyuan immediately said what brother Yan'er had said to criticize her, "Aunt, I'm sorry, I misled sister Tongtong, please punish me!"

Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said, "Stand aside first, Tongtong, you speak."

Ling Xiaotong breathed a sigh of relief. Her mother didn't call her by her full name. "Mom, I shouldn't have disrespected my brothers. They're my older brothers, and they usually protect me. I've become accustomed to it. I will definitely change. I will love my brothers and not form cliques."

Zhou Xiang waved his hand, "Next."

Haohao stood up and said, "We didn't act like good brothers. We didn't give in to our sisters and we even separated from them."

"Next."

Dangdang was very direct, "My brother and I did something wrong, mom, please punish me and my brother!"

Zhou Xiang also waved his hand, "Go away, next one."

The four children were stunned. Is there another one?

Zhou Yan walked up to his aunt and said, "Aunt, I was the one who pointed it out to them. Otherwise, they wouldn't have realized their mistake after standing for two hours. It's uncomfortable to stand after eating."

Zhou Xiang raised his hand and touched his nephew's head. "Okay, because of Brother Yan'er's plea, your punishment this time will be forgiven. If you do it again, I will punish you together."

The four children immediately jumped up.

"Ohhhh."

"Ohhhh."

"Oh, thank you, mom, thank you, brother Yan'er. Brother Yan'er, we will listen to you. You take us to play together, and we will never split up into groups again."

"Okay, keep your word."

"certainly."

"affim."

"must."

The five children went to the playroom to play, and the adults smiled and went back to their rooms for a nap.
