Li Xia didn't know that the dishes she sent would be so popular with the Ma family.

But she did know that she had some talent in cooking, because she and her classmates made dishes by following the same tutorial, but the dishes her classmates made were never as delicious as hers.

Later, she rented a house alone and had a good relationship with the grandfather who lived next door. The grandfather taught her many cooking skills.

Later she found out that this old man was actually a descendant of an imperial chef during the Qing Dynasty.

Gu Weicheng and An An also liked the food she cooked and ate up two dishes and one soup.

After dinner, Gu Weicheng took the initiative to wash the dishes. Although Li Xia didn't say anything, she secretly gave this man a point in her heart.

In her opinion, a man who takes the initiative to wash dishes is handsome.

For no other reason than that she hated washing dishes.

When Gu Weicheng was washing the dishes, Mrs. Tao came to return the lunch box. Seeing Gu Weicheng washing the dishes in the kitchen while Li Xia and An An were resting, she asked in surprise, "Xiao Li, is it Captain Gu who washes the dishes in your family?"

When Li Xia saw Mrs. Tao, she guessed that she would definitely say this, and she also knew that she had no other intention in saying this.

"Division of labor and cooperation." Li Xia said.

Mrs. Tao whispered, "You married a good man. Captain Gu is really a good man. You don't know that our old Ma never washes dishes. I cook and wash clothes."

Li Xia said: "Then sister-in-law, you have to reform Captain Ma."

Mrs. Tao was happy: "I'll listen to you. I'll reform him when I get back and make him like Captain Gu!"

"By the way, your cooking skills are really good. The three boys in our family all said that the food was delicious. Old Ma also said it was delicious. I want to learn from you."

"Okay, I also said that I don't know how to use a sewing machine. I'll let you teach me when the time comes. Once I learn it, I'll buy myself a sewing machine." Li Xia said.

“Then we can learn from each other.”

After Mrs. Tao left, Gu Weicheng finished washing the dishes.

There is no TV at home, but when I went to the city today, I bought an electric fan. I use the fan while eating so that I don’t sweat profusely.

On the first day of moving into the new house, I should have taken a photo to commemorate it, but there was no camera at home, and cameras were too precious in this era.

So Li Xia suggested: "Let's draw a picture together as a souvenir on the first day of living in our new home!"

“Yeah!”

Drawing and other things are what An An loves the most.

Gu Weicheng was not good at painting, no, it should be said that he had never painted, but he was responsible for supporting this proposal.

The work "Home" was painted by Li Xia as the main artist, with An An as the supporting artist.

Li Xia drew the entire outline of the house and the yard, An An drew three people, his father, his mother and him. After thinking for a while, he drew a five-star red flag on the house.

In fact, the painting is not that beautiful, but it is extremely precious because of its commemorative significance. Gu Weicheng also said that he would buy a frame to frame the painting next time and preserve it well.

The three of them were tired after a whole day, so they had to wash up and get ready for rest early.

Gu Weicheng was responsible for giving An An a bath, so Li Xia didn't have to worry about An An and lay down on the bed after she finished washing herself.

Not long after, Gu Weicheng came back holding An An, who was only wearing a shirt and shorts.

In fact, there is another bed in the second bedroom at home, but it is assumed that it will be used for Anan to sleep in a separate bed when he grows up in the future.

Obviously, Gu Weicheng had no intention of sleeping in the second bedroom, but wanted to sleep with them.

Before this, Li Xia had been busy decorating the house and had ignored this issue. She only remembered it now, but it seemed a little late.

The couple hadn't seen each other for five years. She finally came to join the army with her children. She confessed her feelings to him during the day and said that she wanted to live a good life with him.

I can't suggest that Gu Weicheng sleep in the second bedroom alone at this time. What would he think if I did that?

"I want to sleep next to my mother and she will tell me stories!"

Fortunately, An An was there. An An slept in the middle, which saved Li Xia a lot of embarrassment.

The children's storybook I just bought today came in handy. Li Xia flipped through it and found that the stories in it were actually very well written, very in line with the background of the times, and the ideas they conveyed were also beneficial to the growth of children.

The most important thing is that the illustrations inside are also very well drawn, with a strong Chinese flavor.

Unlike later, many children's picture books contained toxic illustrations and toxic teaching materials, which made parents panic.

Li Xia told An An the first story in the book. An An listened with great interest. At the end, tears even flowed from her dark eyes.

"Mom, Jifeng and his owner are so pitiful."

The story is about a military dog ​​and its owner. The owner sacrificed himself to save someone, and the dog broke his leg.

After his master died, the military dog ​​Jifeng could no longer wait for his master. He found his master's grave and stayed with him every day, never leaving him.

After telling the story once, Li Xia would ask An An to read it with her. This kind of parent-child reading together can help the child learn more words.

Gu Weicheng said beside him: "An An, don't cry, this is actually their mission. Just like Dad as a soldier, from the moment he joined the army, he was already prepared to sacrifice for the country. This is the mission of a soldier."

Using the word "pitiful" to describe a soldier and a military dog ​​is not what they want.

For these soldiers, sacrificing for the country is not a pity but an honor.

Some deaths are lighter than a feather, but some deaths are heavier than Mount Tai.

Having said that, An An is still too young to accept such things.

He hugged Gu Weicheng: "Dad, don't die."

Gu Weicheng smiled and put his arm around An An's shoulders, saying, "Okay, Dad will be careful."

Li Xia looked at Gu Weicheng, and she felt that the man in front of her had become taller at this moment. It was because of Gu Weicheng and other soldiers who were not afraid of sacrifice that the motherland became what it is today.

Ordinary people's wonderful life is due to these soldiers who carry heavy burdens forward.

Children sleep very well, especially when they are tired during the day, it is easier for them to fall asleep. An An fell into a sweet dream not long after he touched the pillow.

Li Xia hasn't managed to fall asleep yet, but she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Gu Weicheng hadn't fallen asleep yet either. His heart was in a mess, but he knew that these were all positive emotions. Moving into the family compound, he looked calm on the surface, but in fact, he was as excited as An An.

He has been homeless since his mother died and his father remarried a stepmother.

But now he has a home again.

very nice.

The desk lamp was still on. Gu Weicheng looked at An An and Li Xia who were lying beside him in the dim light of the desk lamp.

An An's breathing was steady, and she had obviously fallen asleep. Li Xia...

Li Xia's quilt was not covered properly, so Gu Weicheng stood up and reached out to cover Li Xia with the quilt. The temperature difference in Yuncheng is large, and it is easy to catch a cold if you don't cover yourself with a quilt at night.

Li Xia closed her eyes and felt a large, slender hand holding her quilt. Her heart began to pound.

What does Gu Weicheng want to do?

Did he want to take advantage of her sleeping...

No way?

Never mind!

Li Xia opened her eyes suddenly and met Gu Weicheng's deep eyes. Li Xia snatched the quilt from Gu Weicheng's hand and said with her neck stiff, "I, I have my period!"
