"Of course!" Zeng Wenjuan also thought of this. Zhao Jianguo had not come home to celebrate the New Year in the past two years. Goudan wanted to eat something delicious during the New Year, but he couldn't get any new clothes. He could only watch Dabao eat delicious food, wear new clothes, and eat big chicken legs. Zeng Wenjuan felt sad instantly.

"Can I eat chicken legs this year too?" Goudan thought of what Zhao Jianguo had said just now, that he could just say whatever he wanted to eat and his parents would make it for him, so he boldly put forward his idea.

Zeng Wenjuan nodded: "Of course you can. As long as you want to eat something that you like, mom and dad will get it for you. Only if you eat more nutritious food can you grow taller, just like your father, and then you can defend the country and the people you love in the future."

Zhao Jianguo listened to the conversation between the mother and son and realized that they had probably not had a good time at home in the past two years. He reached out and held Zeng Wenjuan's hand to comfort her.

"It's all in the past. Our family's life will get better and better in the future."

Zeng Wenjuan also turned her hand over and held Zhao Jianguo's hand: "As long as the family is together, we can be happy no matter what kind of life we ​​live."

After dinner, Zeng Wenjuan coaxed Goudan to sleep and then quietly returned to the master bedroom. But not long after the couple lay down, they heard a knock on the door.

Zeng Wenjuan turned on the light and walked out, and saw Goudan hugging a pillow in his pajamas. Zeng Wenjuan said with some concern: "What's wrong? You don't even wear a coat when you go out. What if you catch a cold?"

"Mom, I'm scared. I want to sleep with you and dad." Goudan said with a pout while hugging the pillow.

Zeng Wenjuan looked at Goudan and knew that he was really scared today. She picked him up and said, "Okay, then sleep with mom and dad tonight, and sleep alone when you are not scared anymore."

Zeng Wenjuan turned and entered the room, closed the door, and put Goudan in the middle: "Don't move around when you sleep at night! Your father's leg injury hasn't healed yet!"

"I understand, Mom. I'll pay attention." Goudan nodded obediently and agreed.

…

…

The next day, Goudan got up with Zeng Wenjuan and Zhao Jianguo.

"Go and play with toys with Dad in the living room! Mom is going to make breakfast. Dad bought you a toy yesterday. Go and see if you like it." Zeng Wenjuan saw Goudan who had been following her, and bent down to say to him.

Goudan nodded and held Zhao Jianguo's hand again: "Dad, let's go play with toys!"

"Okay, Dad promises you will like it. We only have ten of them here, and mom and dad just happened to come across them." Zhao Jianguo said, holding Goudan's hand.

Arriving in the living room, Zhao Jianguo took out a large box, put it on the floor, and said to Goudan with a smile in his eyes: "Open it and see if you like the toys inside."

Goudan happily unpacked the box and pulled out a two-person firefighting command vehicle. It had a long head with a horn on top and two lights on the sides.

"Do you like it?" Zhao Jianguo asked, looking at Goudan's happy eyes.

Goudan nodded hurriedly: "I like it, it looks very cool. Can I sit on this?"

"Of course, this is a car that can seat two people. Do you want to try it? You can open the door and get in first." Zhao Jianguo considerately helped Goudan open the car door.

Goudan got into the car happily, but he didn't know how to drive. He looked at Zhao Jianguo for help, "Dad, this car won't move."

"Do you want your father to help you?" Zhao Jianguo asked softly.

Goudan nodded: "Yes, I want my dad to help me."

Zhao Jianguo pressed a red button and said, "This is the switch. You can start the car by holding the steering wheel. Try it."

Goudan did as he was told, and the car started moving in the living room.

"Wow! That's awesome! Mom, look! I can drive a car now!" Goudan drove the car to the kitchen door and said to Zeng Wenjuan. He originally wanted to drive into the kitchen, but the kitchen door was too small.

After hearing what Zeng Wenjuan said, she turned around and looked at Goudan: "Wow! It's amazing that our Goudan can drive at such a young age. After breakfast, I'll take him downstairs to play with his friends. Do you want to?"

"Is it okay?" Goudan's eyes sparkled.

"Of course you can! This is your toy, your car. You can give it to anyone you want to play with it, and you have the final say if you don't want to give it to anyone. But you have to protect it well so that you can play with it for longer." Zeng Wenjuan said to Goudan with a smile.

"Okay, then after breakfast, mom will come down with me. I want my brother to ride in the car with me." Goudan said happily.

"Okay, you can if you want. Go out and play with Dad first. The smell of Mom's cooking is strong." Zeng Wenjuan said to Goudan while standing at the door.

Goudan drove away obediently, and Zeng Wenjuan closed the kitchen door.

After Zeng Wenjuan finished making breakfast, she brought the food out. The breakfast was light, with a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, a bowl of stir-fried cabbage, and a bowl of stir-fried radish and meat.

"Mom, can I eat in the car?" Goudan hasn't had enough fun yet and doesn't want to get off at all.

“If you want to dirty the car, then eat on it! If you eat on the car, it will be covered with oil stains, and rats and cockroaches will climb on it to play.” Zeng Wenjuan never disagrees with her child’s ideas. She will only tell her the consequences and let her make her own choice.

Goudan decisively turned off the car and opened the door to get out. He climbed onto his special seat: "Mom, I don't want mice and cockroaches to play with my car, so can I hold the car when I sleep?"

Zeng Wenjuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No, but mom can help you. I'll make you a car cover, and when you go to bed, just cover your car, so that mice and cockroaches can't play with your car."

"Great, thanks, Mom." Goudan waved happily.

Zhao Jianguo put a piece of Chinese cabbage and a piece of fried carrot and meat on Goudan's small plate. Then he said, "The problem is solved. Now we can have a good meal!"

After hearing this, Goudan scooped up a spoonful of century egg and lean meat porridge, pouting his little lips and blew the porridge to cool it down, and then started to eat.

The family sat together, occasionally chatting for a while, and then they had breakfast.

"Mom, let's go downstairs and play now!" Goudan said, pulling Zeng Wenjuan's clothes.
