Sun Zehua's big, bony hands rested casually on the steering wheel, his fingertips tapping it intentionally or unintentionally.

Sun Wenhua, who was standing outside the car window, had already spotted his brother's car. He raised his right hand high and waved it, while making a megaphone with his other hand, he shouted:

"Brother, we are here!"

"Come on!"

"Come on~"

"ah--"

Sun Zehua pursed his lips and unconsciously tapped the accelerator with his toes. The urge to escape immediately rose up uncontrollably, but when he saw Qin Yanyan standing right next to Sun Wenhua, he finally sighed and drove the car over resignedly.

"Brother, why are you so slow? It's almost six o'clock, and it's already time for dinner when I get Yanyan home." Sun Wenhua complained, but the joy in his words could not be suppressed. "Looks like I can only get one more meal!"

Qin Yanyan got into the car and looked at the teacher who was obviously very willing. She silently calculated in her mind how many times Sun Wenhua had eaten for free. He was more frequent than her grandma and aunt!

"bag."

Sun Zehua automatically blocked out Sun Wenhua's stupid words, reached into the back seat, and unloaded the heavy object on Qin Yanyan's back.

Compared to the teacher, Qin Yanyan likes Sun Zehua more and immediately puts on a sweet smile.

"Uncle Sun, today is the final exam. I know how to answer all the questions on the test paper. I'm sure I'll get a perfect score!"

"Okay, I have a reward for you if you get two hundred."

"I don't want a reward. I want my mother to have a day off and go out and play with her, but Aunt Yu Rou and my mother are too busy, and there is no one else to help..."

Sun Zehua's eyes moved slightly, and a low voice sounded: "I'll find a way."

"Great!" Qin Yanyan's face was filled with joy, and she talked excitedly about her brothers and sisters at home and interesting things in the class.

The two of them fought back and forth, and the fight was lively.

Sun Wenhua...Hello everyone, am I a transparent person?

When he took credit for getting full marks in the exam, Sun Zehua just nodded and told him to keep up the good work, and nothing more happened.

Sun Wenhua stared at Sun Zehua in astonishment. One could even use the word "gentle" to describe his brother at the moment. It was as if he had seen a ghost!

Does anyone care about him?!

He said unyieldingly, "Brother, I was the fastest to finish grading papers in the whole school today. When I left, most of the other teachers still had their work cut out!"

As Sun Wenhua spoke, he raised his head proudly, and was about to accept the compliment, but the car suddenly paused. After braking several times, Sun Zehua silently turned the car around and drove back to the school gate.

"Brother, what are you doing? You're wrong, you're wrong. We want to send Yanyan home!"

"Your colleagues are still struggling, how dare you come out and have fun?" Sun Zehua glanced at his brother. "What did your parents tell you?"

"At work... you have to build good relationships with your colleagues and help each other."

Sun Wenhua suddenly wanted to slap herself. Looking at her brother's eyes, she struggled several times but failed to shake his determination. She had no choice but to get off the car reluctantly with tears streaming down her face.

Before leaving, he looked back every few steps, trying to awaken Sun Zehua's sympathy.

But as soon as he closed the car door, the car stepped on the accelerator and drove away, leaving no room for Sun Wenhua.

Looking at the teaching building behind him, Sun Wenhua swallowed.

Originally, he had delicious home-cooked meals to satisfy his hunger, but now it seems that even having food to eat is a problem.

…

Someone knocked on the door. Qin Zhichu had just put the dishes on the table. He responded loudly and hurried forward to open the door.

Sun Zehua was carrying his schoolbag, and Qin Yanyan was standing beside him. They watched the door slowly open and the warm light from the house poured out, which stimulated him to squint his eyes.

Qin Zhichu tied her hair up to make it easier to cook. She wore a beige apron, with a few strands of hair hanging down, looking very soft and beautiful.

The moment he saw her, Sun Zehua's heart was deeply touched.

It feels so wonderful to have her around...

Qin Zhichu was no longer surprised by Sun Zehua's visits. It seemed as if the two brothers were convinced of her cooking skills and always came to eat with her.

There was a problem with a batch of goods at the factory today, and she was unable to pick up Yanyan on time, so she asked Sun Wenhua to help look after her for a while after school. However, he said he had to help send Yanyan home. Qin Zhichu had no choice but to speed up his work and leave the rest to Yu Rou to clean up. He hurriedly bought ingredients and went home to cook.

"Where's Teacher Sun?"

Sun Zehua walked in familiarly, and washed his hands with Qin Yanyan. Hearing Qin Zhichu's doubtful voice, he said without hesitation:

"The grading work is not completed, so I have to stay in school to work overtime."

“Grading papers is quite hard work.”

Qin Zhichu couldn't help but sigh, but he didn't suspect anything. He returned to the dining table, lit the alcohol stove, and placed it under the sand pot, completing the final task.

Sun Zehua asked puzzledly: "What is this?"

"This is called porridge hotpot. It was my sister-in-law's idea. We were too busy today to prepare anything else, and we didn't have time to make hotpot soup either, so we had to use this instead."

"Although this pot only contains porridge, just like the mutton hotpot, you can add a variety of ingredients to it and cook it. It's even more delicious when paired with seafood."

"I'm sorry for the poor hospitality, Mr. Sun."

Sun Zehua silently pushed away the bowl and chopsticks that originally belonged to Sun Wenhua. Seeing the three sets of tableware arranged in a triangle on the table, he nodded slightly with satisfaction.

"Boiled mutton in hot pot has just become popular in the city, and it's similar to your porridge-based hot pot. But was it your sister-in-law who came up with the idea of ​​using an alcohol stove for heating?"

Sun Zehua's stomach problems have not been a day or two, and he is very averse to all kinds of spicy food. Drinking porridge is also taking care of him invisibly, and the measures to keep warm are also eye-opening.

Qin Zhichu couldn't help but smile when he thought of Yu You's greedy look.

"She loves to eat and is willing to research. Her mother is also a good cook. I learned many dishes from them both."

"Grandma Cao's cooking is the best in the world! Even the chefs at state-owned restaurants can't compare!"

Qin Yanyan testified beside him, her eyes flashing with excitement. She stood up slightly and kept putting prawns into the pot.

Qin Zhichu didn't restrain her, but just looked at Sun Zehua with a little apology.

"Yan Yan likes to eat shrimp, you don't have to worry about her, the porridge is already boiling, just put whatever you want in it."

Seeing that she still had a smile on her face, Sun Zehua's appetite was aroused, and he also picked up a few slices of beef and fish and put them into the pot.

The snow-white rice was bubbling with heat. The prawns cooked the fastest, soon turning from green to red. Qin Zhichu took a spoon to scoop them out and set them aside, waiting for them to cool down before peeling them for Yanyan.

Sun Zehua had been wanting to come for dinner for a long time, and Qin Zhichu was also very hungry after a busy day. Together with Qin Yanyan, the two adults and one child ate very quickly and finished most of the food on the table.

"Yanyan, mom will peel the shrimp for you. Have a little porridge first."

Qin Zhichu reached out to grab the bowl but found nothing. He looked around and saw the watch that was originally on Sun Zehua's wrist placed on the table.

On the other hand, the prawns had already been peeled almost completely, and half a bowl of the bright red and tempting shrimp meat had been collected.
