Chapter 11 Back to the old ways
When Jiang Hong heard that he had to look after two children, he became a little nervous.
He had experienced countless missions, big and small, in the army, and he had never been afraid of those missions. But now, facing his two lovely nephews, he was actually afraid!
After Li Yiyi finished speaking, she waited for a while. Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, she looked at him with a frown.
Just then, his brief answer finally came, "Okay."
After hearing his answer, Li Yiyi went into the kitchen to make breakfast with peace of mind.
What she didn't know was that after she entered the kitchen, there was a pair of surprised eyes staring at her back.
Jiang Hong didn't understand why his wife, whom he had been married to for several years, suddenly seemed like a different person, until he heard the whispering of two children beside him, interrupting his thoughts.
The two siblings stood not far from him, their heads close together as they spoke in low voices, "Sister, is this person really our father?"
Jiang Yueyue touched her chin and said, "Right, mom said he is our father, so he is right."
"Then should we call him dad?" Jiang Xiaobao asked again.
Jiang Yueyue's face suddenly showed an embarrassment again, "I don't know either."
Jiang Hong, who was standing by, heard all the whispers between the brother and sister. Looking at their small figures, he slowly walked over.
"Yueyue, Xiaobao, do you want to take a plane?" he asked the brother and sister with a smile.
In the kitchen
Li Yiyi poured half a cup of white rice, then thought of the man who suddenly came back last night, and finally poured another half cup of white rice into the pot.
When the porridge was almost ready, she fried two more dishes, one of which was with meat.
This meat was the bacon she bought at the Space Supermarket yesterday. She had originally wanted to improve the meals for the mother and her two children, but she didn't expect it to be a bargain for him when he returned.
When she came out and called the father and his two sons to come in for dinner, she saw an adult and two children having fun in the yard.
Seeing the two children happily calling out "Dad", Li Yiyi smiled and had to admit that blood ties were the most difficult to explain in this world.
Jiang Hong quickly noticed her gaze, stopped with the two children, and looked straight at her with his dark eyes.
Li Yiyi was a little flustered by his stare, and she quickly put on a fake smile and said to him, "Breakfast is ready, bring them in to eat."
Jiang Hong nodded, and took the two siblings' hands and led them into the kitchen.
As soon as they came in, the two children excitedly surrounded Li Yiyi and talked about the game they had just played.
"Mom, Dad was so awesome just now. He lifted my brother and me up so high, like we were flying. It was so much fun."
"Fly high, it's fun." Jiang Xiaobao followed up his sister's words.
Li Yiyi looked at their smiling faces and the corners of her mouth rose. While listening to them, she pulled them to wash their hands.
At the dinner table, Jiang Hong saw the food on the stove. After a moment of silence, he went to get a bowl of porridge.
When Li Yiyi came back after the two children washed their hands, she saw that he had already served porridge to the three of them.
Soon, the family of four finally had breakfast together.
Halfway through the meal, Li Yiyi was worried that he would doubt the origin of the meat, so she explained to him, "I went to my mother's house yesterday and got back some of the money I had lent to my parents. I used that money to buy this meat."
Jiang Hong was eating breakfast and listening to what she said. He was shocked again. She actually went to get money from his father-in-law and others instead of giving money away.
"Well, it's up to you to decide. You can keep the money. I won't need it." After saying that, he continued to eat his breakfast.
Hearing his answer, Li Yiyi felt a little satisfied with him. No matter what era, no man would be willing to give all his money to a woman.
After breakfast, Jiang Hong took over the task of washing dishes.
Since he was willing to do it, there was no reason for her to stop him. She didn't want the man she would be with in the future to be someone who had never done any housework, so she happily gave the task to him.
When Jiang Hong came out after washing the dishes, he saw her sitting on a broken table in the yard, thinking about something.
He walked behind her and coughed softly.
Li Yiyi came back to her senses, looked up and saw it was him, smiled and said, "Are you done washing?"
"Well, I'm done washing. I plan to go visit my parents. Do you want to come with me?" he asked.
Li Yiyi thought about the things that she hadn't figured out in her mind, hesitated for a moment, and finally refused, "I just went to my parents' place yesterday, so I won't go there. You can take the two children with you."
"Okay." He nodded in response.
After the father and his two sons left, Li Yiyi continued to lie on the table thinking about her next goal in life here.
Although she had only been here for a few days, she knew that in this era, living in the countryside depended on farming and earning work points.
She lowered her eyes to take a look at the two delicate hands and decided to give up. Farming and earning work points was really not suitable for her.
She was afraid that she would collapse in the field before she had worked for half a day.
Thinking of this, the only option she could think of was to return to her old job and continue being a doctor.
Chiang Kai-shek's home.
The Jiang family members who were having breakfast saw Jiang Hong and his two sons coming over. Jiang's mother was so excited that the chopsticks in her hand dropped to the ground.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Jiang Hong shouted to the two elders at the door of the main room.
Jiang's mother stood up with red eyes and walked to him. She patted his shoulders with both hands and touched his chest. "It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back."
Jiang Hong frowned slightly, but soon returned to his normal expression and smiled at Jiang's mother.
"Have a good talk with your wife when you come back. You haven't been back for a few years, and it's not easy for her to support the family alone. If there is anything, discuss it properly and don't lose your temper with a woman." Father Jiang said while smoking a tobacco.
Jiang Hong looked towards his father curiously. This was the first time he heard his father say such words to defend his wife.
"Yesterday, your third daughter-in-law bought some tobacco for your father. The one he is smoking now was given to him by your daughter-in-law. He has been praising your daughter-in-law since last night." Mother Jiang whispered in his ear.
When Jiang Hong heard that his daughter-in-law had given tobacco to his father, he was surprised.
Next, his family asked him some questions about his military life. Of course, he chose to avoid the important questions and also concealed the fact that he was injured.
After spending almost enough time here, he took his two children back home.
He had just arrived home, and before he had time to stand properly, he saw his wife, who had stayed at home, running towards him with eyes shining. She grabbed his arm and said to him excitedly, "You're back. Come on, follow me into the house."
