Xu Fei's face flushed, he stammered and couldn't say a word. He was a normal man. Every time after listening to his colleagues' gossip, he would feel very lonely when he went to bed every night. He just wanted to have a wife to warm the bed and give him a child...

Seeing Xu Fei like this, Li Gang and Chu Tian, ​​who had long since become real men, could understand nothing? The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

Li Gang, "Xiao Fei, when I'm done with my work these past two days, I'll ask your sister-in-law to show you if there's anyone suitable!"

Chu Tian was also happy to speak, "I'll show you too. By the way, do you have a favorite type?"

Upon hearing this, Li Gang immediately looked at Chu Tian and said, "I think Xiao Fei must like someone who is more powerful, so that she can manage the house when the man is not at home."

Chu Tian didn't believe it, "No way? Xu Fei likes strong women?"

"Xu Fei, tell me what you like."

Xu Fei opened his mouth when he heard that. He looked at Xinxin and Pingping who were sitting quietly on the chairs beside him and were looking at him curiously. His face flushed red. Finally, he looked at Li Gang and said hesitantly, "Brother Gang, I, I want someone gentler. My sister-in-law is too strong. I'm not suitable for her..."

Li Gang was shocked when he heard this and looked at Xu Fei in disbelief. "What the hell? You actually like that kind of weak woman?"

“····”

Chu Tian was powerless to complain. How could being gentle be considered weak? Although, it was indeed very weak...

Xu Fei retorted unconvincedly, "Brother Gang, gentleness is not weakness. Haven't you heard that gentleness is like water?"

"Let's imagine this: you come home after a busy day, and your sister-in-law immediately comes to greet you, wipes your sweat, and gently asks if you're tired, hungry, what you want to eat, and all sorts of sweet words. How would that feel?"

"Forget it, forget it, I can't accept it..."

Li Gang actually used his wife's situation as an example. When he thought about his tough wife speaking in a voice as if her neck was being strangled, his face changed instantly. The hairs under his sweater all stood up. His body trembled involuntarily and he shook his head repeatedly.

Chu Tian and Xu Fei looked at Li Gang in confusion, wondering what Li Gang was imagining. Why did he feel as if he had seen a monstrous beast?

Although Xinxin and Pingping had been sitting there obediently without saying a word, Chu Tian could feel the two children looking at him from time to time. He raised his hand and saw that they had been at Xu Fei's house for almost an hour. They arrived at the regiment headquarters at 11 o'clock, and it was already 12 o'clock. He then stood up and said, holding Lele in his arms.

"Brother Li Gang, we're leaving now. I can rest at home for a month. One day when you're free, I'll invite you to my house for a simple meal. We can have a good chat then."

Li Gang and Xu Fei both stood up after hearing this. Li Gang nodded repeatedly, "Okay, anyway, you should ask Brother Weiguo to deliver the goods to me every day recently. I'll tell him a good date when the time comes."

Chu Tian nodded and looked at Xu Fei again, "Xiao Fei, I'll go home and ask your sister-in-law to find you a suitable girl."

Xu Fei nodded embarrassedly, "Then I'll trouble Brother Chu and sister-in-law..."

Standing at the gate, Chu Tian pushed the cart with one hand and held Lele in the other. He looked at Xinxin, Pingping, and Lele in his arms, and said, "Xinxin, Pingping, Lele, say goodbye to Uncle Li and Brother Xiaofei."

The three children said in unison, "Uncle Li, goodbye Brother Xiaofei..."

Li Gang and Xu Fei smiled and waved to them, "Goodbye..."

In the supply and marketing cooperative, Chu Tian bought a lot of things with his three children. When they were about to leave, Chu Tian saw Xinxin's eyes kept glancing at a counter from time to time, so he stopped and asked.

"Xinxin, is there anything else you want?"

Xinxin nodded and pointed at the counter, "Dad, I want that notebook, it's so nice..."

Chu Tian looked in the direction of her finger and saw a notebook with a red cover. Well, Xinxin wanted it. The cover of notebooks in this era was either natural wood color, brown or black. It was rare to see such a brightly colored cover.

"sure."

Then he walked to the counter and asked, "Comrade, how much is this notebook?"

The salesperson glanced at the notebook on the counter and said, "Sixty cents."

"I want one. Do you have it in other colors?"

Chu Tian raised an eyebrow. Sixty cents? It looked only slightly thicker than an ordinary exercise book, and it wasn't a cowhide notebook. Compared to ordinary exercise books that only cost a few cents each, it really wasn't cheap.

The salesperson looked at Chu Tian and said in a flat voice, "The next one we have is black... There are only two colors of covers in total, and the red one is the best-selling one..."

Chu Tian nodded when he heard this, then looked down at Pingping. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Pingping, your sister has one, so you should have one too. Should Daddy buy you one too?"

Pingping nodded, "Okay."

Chu Tian looked at Lele again, who was full of curiosity. "Lele, Daddy will buy you a notebook too. I'll go home and teach you how to write, okay?"

Seeing Lele nodded, Chu Tian looked at the salesperson again, "Give me five red ones and four black ones."

The salesperson nodded and said, "Wait, I'll get it."

After the salesperson left, Xinxin asked Chu Tian curiously, "Dad, why did you buy so many? Xinxin only needs one book!"

Chu Tian pinched her pigtails and said with a smile, "It's New Year's Day. Dad gave these to your eldest uncle and second uncle's cousins ​​as New Year's gifts."

Xinxin nodded in understanding, "Oh, so that's how it is."

"But that's not right. There are five boys from my eldest uncle's family and my second uncle's family. Including Pingping, that's six people. But there are only four black books. How do we divide them?"

Chu Tian smiled and said, "Qingkang and your second uncle's Xiaolei are still too young to be used at the moment."

"Dad prepared something else to send."

Xinxin said "Oh" and nodded obediently. After the salesperson brought the notebook and wrapped it, Xinxin took the initiative to reach out and pick it up.

Chu Tian saw that Xinxin and Pingping were holding things in their left and right hands, but they did not take the initiative to carry them over. They were not heavy things. It is a good thing that children grow up and know how to take the initiative to help adults get things.

Although he doted on them, he never thought of raising them to be ladies who never had to touch water. Master, that would not be loving them, but harming them...

Therefore, he never stopped Yao Xiujuan from teaching her the housework she needed to do. Since Xinxin and Pingping started the first grade, he often asked them to help with simple housework such as washing dishes, putting away the utensils, and cooking.

Chu Tian promised the children yesterday that they would go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner, so he would not go back on his word. As soon as he came out of the supply and marketing cooperative, he took the children straight to the state-owned restaurant.
