Pei Yuchen was embarrassed by the question: "Why do you ask that?"
Xiao Bao frowned slightly: "Because other people's parents sleep together, but I've never seen you sleep with your mother."
He originally thought that the reason the two of them didn't sleep together was because he and his mother slept in the same bed and took up space.
Now that they all have their own rooms, why do Dad still sleep in separate beds from Mom?
Pei Yuchen choked, unsure how to respond for a moment.
It wasn't that he didn't want to, but Song Yanzhi's attitude towards him meant that he didn't even dare to go into her room, let alone sleep with her.
He was afraid of angering her and causing her to treat him badly in the future.
It's not uncommon for couples to have conflicts and disagreements, but it's rare for them to sleep in separate beds.
At least no one would spread such a thing.
Because if outsiders hear about it, it will cause a whole host of troubles.
He originally thought that Xiaobao wouldn't understand these things, so he didn't pay attention.
Little did he know, he already did.
So after moving here, I want to have my own room.
Is it because I'm worried that I'm affecting them?
Pei Yuchen felt a mix of helplessness and amusement.
He reached out and rubbed his son's head, saying, "Dad goes to bed late at night so as not to disturb Mom's rest."
Xiao Bao looked at him suspiciously. He wasn't a three-year-old anymore; he was five years old. How could he believe such a thing?
Thinking back carefully, ever since Dad came back, Mom has never given him a kind look.
Because Xiaobao didn't like his father at first, he didn't find his mother's attitude strange.
But now he doesn't find his father so annoying anymore, which is why he deeply feels how bad the relationship between his parents is.
This is probably what adults often call arguing.
And it seems to be a one-sided issue with the mother.
He gave his father a pitiful look, then went back to his room.
Pei Yuchen was both annoyed and amused by his son's gaze.
He closed the door and rubbed his temples.
However, they also realized that this was not a sustainable solution.
He and his wife can't sleep in separate beds forever.
There was a misunderstanding before, and she disliked herself, but now the misunderstanding has been cleared up, and she even knows that the two children have nothing to do with her.
Logically speaking, their relationship should have improved.
But why does Pei Yuchen feel that his relationship with his wife is becoming increasingly distant?
The complex and disgusted look in her eyes was gone.
But it also felt unfamiliar.
Pei Yuchen sighed softly.
I don't know what to do with her.
Song Yanzhi, who was in the room, was unaware of what was happening. She was too tired after doing yoga and only remembered that she hadn't put the groceries she bought in the refrigerator after waking up. Considering that she had to attend classes every day and that the groceries wouldn't last more than two days in the hot weather, it was too troublesome to buy them every day. Pei Yuchen somehow managed to get a second-hand refrigerator from somewhere.
It looks quite new.
After Song Yanzhi cleaned it in the afternoon, she left it to air dry.
Having a refrigerator is indeed more convenient; you don't have to worry about leftovers spoiling.
She went downstairs and organized everything, putting it in the refrigerator.
The advantage of going to bed early at night is that you naturally wake up around six or seven o'clock every day.
The sun shines into the house, which is clean and tidy, making it feel especially warm and comfortable.
The air felt refreshing.
There were sounds of vendors hawking their wares outside.
Song Yanzhi listened and then went outside.
It's a vendor who sells rice cakes on his bicycle in the morning.
Quite a few people are buying it.
Song Yanzhi also likes rice cakes, which are sweet, soft, glutinous and fragrant.
So he squeezed through and weighed two jin (1 kg).
Although the rice cake has cooled down, it is actually more glutinous and chewy when it cools down.
It was also sprinkled with a dense ring of black sesame seeds.
It looks like it's made with plenty of high-quality materials.
She put the pastries on the table and saw Xiao Bao rubbing his eyes as he came downstairs.
Xiao Bao stared at the rice cake in surprise: "Mommy, what is this?"
"I bought rice cakes for you to take to school. I'll pack two for you later."
Rice cake?
Xiao Bao suddenly remembered that sometimes when the adults went out to the market, there were people selling rice cakes outside. The children in the residential compound loved to eat them and would often take them out to show off.
Xiao Bao didn't know what it tasted like, but just watching others eat it made him think it was very soft and sweet.
He hurried downstairs to the table, opened the container, and sure enough, it was the rice cake that everyone was eating.
And there's even more sesame seeds!
The little one's eyes sparkled, and he looked up at Song Yanzhi and praised, "Mom, you're so good."
Mom is so good to him now; she always buys him all sorts of things he's never eaten before.
Looking at his adorable little face, Song Yanzhi chuckled and reached out to ruffle his hair. "If I buy you something delicious, you say I'm nice, but if I don't, you say I'm bad?"
Xiao Bao immediately shook his head, "No, it doesn't matter whether Mom buys it for me or not."
Song Yanzhi couldn't stop laughing at her son's antics, her eyes almost overflowing with warmth. She opened her arms and hugged her son, then leaned down and kissed his little face.
Xiao Bao was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red when he realized what was happening.
He quickly turned his body away.
Song Yanzhi found it amusing, so she made him a rice cake and went into the kitchen to make breakfast, telling him, "Eat slowly, you might choke."
"Okay, Mom."
Xiao Bao immediately closed his big mouth and took a small bite.
Just as I imagined, the rice cake was soft and sweet.
Xiao Bao squinted his eyes happily.
I wish every day could be this happy.
When Song Yanzhi took him to school, she packed him an extra piece of rice cake.
