"Hongmei, I've taken a liking to that girl."

"Wait until I have time to ask her for you, okay? You don't mind her status. You're a government official now, and she's an orphan and a bodyguard."

"I'm just glad she doesn't mind."

"Okay, I'll call you after I've asked."

"Don't forget."

"I can't forget it."

Today is supposed to be a day for drinking, but no one here is drinking, so we're just eating.

The kids had a great time, but after twenty skewers, Zhenye wouldn't let them eat anymore. "If you want to eat more, come back in a few days. We'll all have roasted lamb leg."

Liang Dan had already brewed the chrysanthemum tea and given each of them a cup, telling them to pour it out as soon as they finished drinking it.

The meal lasted two hours, and everyone left after the children finished eating.

The children were laughing and chatting happily in the car. Pengfei, Pingan, Zhiyuan, Zhiyu, and Qingyang all came back together.

Once they got home, they didn't need to explain anything and went to wash up. The younger ones, Liu Qiang and Zhiyuan, had a nanny to help them, while the remaining nine older ones did it themselves.

"Come on, let's go practice. I'll see if you've been slacking off at home."

Ping An raised his hand weakly and said, "Boss, I confess, I didn't practice seriously."

"Ping An, if I come back next time, you'll still use the same excuse..."

"Boss, I promise! I guarantee it with my integrity."

"Ping An, what is your personality?"

"Third brother, I was wrong. There will absolutely never be a next time."

The children went to the practice room, and Gu Chuanming and his family of four followed along.

"Who wants to go first, big brother?"

"Okay, I've been working hard, but I don't know how it will go. Let's check it out today."

The second brother, Ruifeng, stepped forward. "I'll do it."

After several rounds, Jinsong was no match for him and lay on the ground.

Ruifeng reached out and pulled him up, saying, "Brother, your moves are too slow."

"Okay, I understand."

"We have half an hour for sparring, brother, take a look at our moves."

The eldest and fourth brothers, along with the second and third, fought in pairs. Liu Qiang watched from the sidelines, drooling.

"Auntie, my brothers are amazing."

"Then you should work hard too."

"Yes, I definitely will. I will catch up with my brothers."

Liu Jinsong was watching from the sidelines, and only now did he realize that both the coach and Ruifeng were right. He had the strength, but not the speed.

It ended half an hour later. Gu Chuanming and Zhang Xingguo clapped, "Not bad, very good. Try it with Chengzi tomorrow morning."

Zhang Hongmei's eyes were filled with tears. "How hard must the children have worked to achieve this level of learning?"

"Alright, it's almost eleven o'clock, go back and rest." Zhang Shouyi said, and the eleven children obediently went back to rest.

"Hongmei, don't be sad. It's all worth it. You won't have to worry too much when they go out in the future."

“I know, I felt heartbroken before I left. No, call the four children over, I need to give them water.”

"Okay, you get ready, I'll go call them."

Zhang Hongmei poured out six cups of water, one cup for each member of the family.

The four children went to their parents' bedroom and saw their mother sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for them.

"Mom, let's sleep with you tonight, and let Dad go to the guest room. Or we can go to my room."

Zhang Shouyi coughed. "Don't talk too much, drink some water quickly."

Zhang Hongmei was very tempted by Lao San's suggestion, but seeing Zhang Shouyi's expression, she remained silent.

The six people each drank a cup of water, and the four children stood up straight.

"Okay, go to sleep."

The third child was reluctantly dragged away by the second child.

"Wife, our sons are all grown up now, how can you sleep with them?"

"You always have some excuse. When the kids were little, you said they needed to be independent, and now you say they're too old. I hate you."

After Zhang Hongmei finished speaking, she went back to her bedroom. Zhang Shouyi gently coaxed her for a while before the storm finally passed.

Song Zigan escorted the family of four back home. The newlywed couple returned home.

The room was chilly, but that didn't dampen their passion.

The next morning, the two embraced and chatted sweetly for a while before getting up to go home.

Li Cuihua knew that the young couple wouldn't prepare any food at home, so she specially saved some for them.

Sanya cleaned the house and washed the cloth before carrying the gifts Song Zigan had prepared and going home.

Liu Maocai paced around his house, wondering, "Why is it so quiet here with my three children not around?"

"I think so too," Li Cuihua sighed, and cleaned the house a second time.

The old couple only had energy when their daughter and her husband came back at noon.

"Er Ya, do you think Mom and Dad would be so lonely without Pengfei?"

"Yes, Ping An will be starting school next year, then the three of us can move back."

"Sigh! Then I'll be lonely."

"That's just how your job is. What can you do about it?"

"So you're not working at the research institute anymore?"

"Okay, I'll go work at the bank."

Cheng Guangxu also felt very uncomfortable; with neither of his two sons around, he felt empty and lonely.

"Honey, how about we have a daughter? We can spoil her without worry, and she can stay with us."

Er Ya rolled her eyes at Cheng Guangxu. "I don't want any more. Two children are enough. They'll keep each other company in the future. I'm not going to have any more children no matter what."

"Fine, fine, if you say you don't want it, then you don't want it. I actually do like daughters too."

"Then just like it in your heart."

I heard a noise in the yard. It was Sanya and her husband returning.

The two of them went out too. They ate with the two of them.

Er Ya observed carefully and noticed that the two occasionally exchanged glances, so she felt that they got along quite well.

In this compound, the four children automatically open their eyes and get up at five o'clock in the morning; it's become a habit.

After brushing their teeth and washing their faces, the four went to the training room for their daily training.

Hearing the commotion, Zhang Shouyi felt extremely proud; these were his sons.

Zhang Hongmei stirred, and Zhang Shouyi quickly hugged her and gently patted her until she fell asleep again.

I got out of bed quietly. After changing into my practice clothes and washing up, I went to the practice room.

At this moment, Gu Chuanming and Zhang Xingguo had arrived, and Xiao Li, Chengzi, and the two bodyguards from the family were sparring with them.

"Shouyi, these four children are outstanding."

"Grandpa, you can't praise them like that, it'll make them arrogant."

"How could I not know that? You're being redundant."

"Let Xiao Li practice with me, and show the four of them what I'm made of."

During halftime, the four children saw their father's outfit and gathered around him.

Zhang Weiyu, unafraid of death, teased Zhang Shouyi, "Dad, do you know kung fu too?"

"What? You don't believe me?"

"Dad, could you practice with us?"

"Sure, let your Uncle Li walk around with me a few times, you guys watch."
