"Your mother has to go out for a meeting tomorrow morning. I'm too lazy to cook, so I'll go to your house for dinner and bring it to you. Why don't you agree?" Chen Yintang had a stern face, his eyes bulging like frog eyes.

"Of course that's fine. I just didn't want Dad to make an extra trip." Zhao Jianguo immediately explained that his father-in-law's impression of him was very important.

"Goudan, eat more. It's been such a short time since I last saw you, and you've lost weight." Zeng Yike said as she picked up a small plate of fish for Goudan.

Goudan, with pieces of flesh on his hands: “…” There is a kind of thinness that makes your grandma think you are thin.

"Thank you, grandma." Goudan took the plate and started eating piece by piece.

After dinner.

"Mom and Dad, Goudan has fallen asleep. Let's go back first!" Zeng Wenjuan said as she picked up the sleeping Goudan.

"Okay, put some clothes on him!" Zeng Yike heard that they were going home, so she took out her coat from the room, put it on Goudan and said, "The temperature difference between day and night is big, and Goudan fell asleep again. Don't let him catch a cold."

"Thank you, Mom. We'll leave first." Zeng Wenjuan helped hold down the corner of her clothes to prevent them from falling when she walked. After saying goodbye to Chen Yitang and Zeng Yike, the family of three left.

Walking on the road, the wind was blowing. Zhao Jianguo said in his wheelchair, "Why don't you let me hold Goudan? It's so cold today, and you didn't even bring gloves."

"It's okay, it won't be long." Zeng Wenjuan said indifferently, Zhao Jianguo's leg injury has not healed yet! Goudan is indeed a little heavy.

After returning home, Zeng Wenjuan put the things on his bed, went to the bathroom, filled a basin with warm water, and used Goudan's special towel to wipe his face.

He used another basin to wash Goudan's feet. Goudan, who was a little uncomfortable, whimpered, "Hmm..."

"Come, mom will help you take off your coat and change into pajamas before going to bed, otherwise you will not be comfortable sleeping." Zeng Wenjuan kept moving her hands and comforted her in a gentle tone.

After helping Goudan change into pajamas, Zeng Wenjuan turned off the light and left the bedroom quietly. As soon as she went out, she saw Zhao Jianguo sitting in the living room.

"Now that you've packed up, why don't you go back to bed? It's quite late now." Zeng Wenjuan looked at Zhao Jianguo and asked.

"I'll just sit for a while. I've prepared the herbal water for you to soak your feet in the evening. You can just soak in it." Zhao Jianguo said to Zeng Wenjuan.

"Okay, go back to your room and rest first!" Zeng Wenjuan nodded and went to the bathroom.

After seeing a wooden barrel covered with a washbasin, Zeng Wenjuan reached out and opened the lid. She watched the medicinal properties of the herbs emanate from it, then took off her shoes and socks and put her feet in.

Zhao Jianguo went back into the house to warm up his bed. In the winter in the south, it was always colder inside the house than outside, and the bed was as cold as a refrigerator. It was especially difficult to get up early.

Zeng Wenjuan finished soaking her feet and returned to the room. She was so sleepy that she yawned all the time. She lay down on the bed and soon fell asleep. Zhao Jianguo watched Zeng Wenjuan fall asleep. He stretched out his long hand, pulled the light cord next to him, turned off the light, and lay down to sleep.

………

In this cold weather with temperatures of more than 10 degrees below zero, the south welcomed its first snow. Fine and continuous snowflakes fell, decorating the treetops and the roofs, covering them with layer after layer of white.

"Wow! It snowed last night. This is the first snow this year!" After Zeng Wenjuan opened the door to the house, she saw that the ground was covered with silver.

"I heard that if you make a wish on the day of the first snow, it will come true!" Zhao Jianguo said as he walked to Zeng Wenjuan with a cane.

"Are you feeling any discomfort in your legs?" Zeng Wenjuan looked at Zhao Jianguo with concern. Usually, if the legs are injured, there will be gout or something like that.

"No, my father is a very good doctor, and he uses the best medicine. I don't feel any other discomfort now, just like usual." Zhao Jianguo said seriously.

When Goudan heard that it was snowing, he stopped playing with his toys. He went out quickly, but there was a puddle of water at the door that had frozen into ice. Goudan's shoes slipped and he fell into the snow outside.

"Hahahaha..." Zeng Wenjuan and Zhao Jianguo laughed out loud without shouting.

"Wow..." Goudan was a little confused at first, but after hearing Zeng Wenjuan and the others laughing at him, he burst into tears.

Zeng Wenjuan also realized that this was not a good idea, so she hurried out, grabbed Goudan's armpits and lifted him up: "Did you fall anywhere?"

"It's cold. The snow has got into my clothes." Goudan pointed at his back, wanting to tell Zeng Wenjuan the exact location of the snow, but his hands were too short and fat to reach his point.

"Okay, let's go inside and change our clothes. When the snow stops, Mom will shovel the snow away so that it won't dare to bully our Goudan." Zeng Wenjuan first helped Goudan shake his clothes a few times, but then she said something because she was afraid that there was still snow inside the clothes and she couldn't shake it clean.

After helping Goudan change his clothes, Zhao Jianguo had already shoveled away the ice at the door.

"It's cold now. Let's eat fish this morning and have fish jelly at noon. What do you think?" Zeng Wenjuan said to Zhao Jianguo while looking at the fish frozen in the basin.

"Okay, let's make breakfast now! Dad will be here soon." Zhao Jianguo pushed his wheelchair into the kitchen. It is more convenient to work in a wheelchair.

The two of them worked together to prepare breakfast. They had rice noodles with two fried eggs, which was delicious.

"Grandpa, why did you buy me some buns? They're so delicious! And they have meat." Goudan said while eating a meat bun, and then handed the bun in his hand to Chen Yitang: "Grandpa, you have one too."

"Grandpa has some, you can just eat it yourself." Chen Yintang showed Goudan the lunch box in his hand and said.

"Well, you just came, why did you buy meat buns? We have already prepared dinner at home, and we even had fish in the morning!" Zeng Wenjuan saw this scene when she just brought out the dishes.

"This meat bun was made by Lao Chen. He seldom makes it, but it tastes great. I had to use my connections to get it. If we can't finish it at home, we'll have it at noon." Chen Yintang walked to the dining table and put the lunch box in his hand on the table.

Zhao Jianguo walked over with a cane, picked up a bun and said, "You have one. I was late a few times when I first joined the army, and later I was too embarrassed to compete with those guys for it."

Zeng Wenjuan was skeptical that there could be something so delicious. She took the bun and took a big bite. Her taste buds were instantly amazed: "Hey! It's really delicious!"

"If you like it, eat more. Next time you want to eat it, tell me and I'll buy the ingredients and send a bottle of wine over and ask him to help." Chen Yintang said immediately when he saw that his daughter loved it.
