Back home, Qiu Jingwen stood in the dining room and glanced towards the living room.
The fourth daughter, Qiu Chan, and the youngest son, Qiu Shou, were doing their homework at the coffee table in the living room.
Meanwhile, the third daughter, Qiushui, stood in front of a mirror in the bathroom, beautifying her pretty face.
"Dad, you're back!"
Qiu Shui greeted her father while fixing her eyebrows.
"Um".
Qiu Jingwen simply hummed in response, without even glancing at his daughter.
He put the two plastic bags in the bathroom, then returned to the living room and did his homework while watching the cicadas and the autumn harvest.
After greeting their father, Qiu Chan and Qiu Shou continued to do their homework.
Qiu Jingwen is very satisfied with his family, his wife, and his children; he is even very proud of them.
His wife is gentle, kind, beautiful, and generous. She works a respectable job in the factory's medical clinic, and their children make his life easy and worry-free.
After staring blankly for a while, Qiu Jingwen went to the kitchen again.
Seeing her husband enter the kitchen, Jiang Yuping, wearing a floral apron, glanced at Qiu Jingwen while cooking.
"Dad, is his head still hot? Is it any better?"
Qiu Jingwen did not respond, but instead closed the kitchen door.
Then, unusually, he hugged his wife tightly from behind.
Qiu Jingwen gently embraced him.
Jiang Yuping was so frightened that she immediately turned around.
After so many years of marriage, this was the first time Qiu Jingwen had ever hugged her in the kitchen.
Jiang Yuping's pretty face turned red as her husband hugged her, and her heart pounded wildly in his arms.
She turned to look at her husband, then whispered a reproachful rebuke:
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? You're so old. If the children see this, won't it set a bad example for them?"
Qiu Jingwen felt as if he had been bitten by an insect and immediately let go.
He himself didn't know why he suddenly made such a bold move!
"Yu Ping, why did you cook so many dishes tonight?"
Looking at the dishes that had already been cooked in the kitchen, he felt that this was different from his usual dinner.
"It's not much, you're the workshop director, this is just a treat for you. How about it, isn't your wife good to you?"
"Okay, okay, our Yuping is the best woman in the world."
"You too, Qiu Jingwen, are the best man in the world."
The two of them praised each other, and it was a bit too cheesy.
As Jiang Yuping spoke, she reached out and touched her husband's forehead. Feeling that it was no longer so hot, she felt relieved.
"By the way, Wei Hong is coming over for dinner later. Her husband, Lao Xiao, is away on a business trip. I asked her to bring you some fever reducer."
After saying that, she continued to stir-fry the peanuts in the pan.
The peanuts were about 80% cooked, popping and crackling in the wok, releasing a fragrant aroma.
When Qiu Jingwen heard that Wei Hong was coming over for dinner, he deliberately teased his wife.
"So that's why your best friend and close girlfriends are coming over, and they even said they'd treat me!"
Jiang Yuping smiled at him from the side.
"How much can Wei Hong eat by herself? You might as well have a couple of drinks to cool off, but you might still have to do physical labor tonight."
Qiu Jingwen naturally understood what it meant to do manual labor.
Over the years, with the birth of each child, their marital sex life has been significantly disrupted.
Now that their children are older and their living conditions have improved, they actually have more sex than when they were younger.
Besides, Jiang Yuping is a doctor and knows how to satisfy her husband's physical needs.
She even felt that sex, like food, was an important part of keeping a man's body and mind together, and that if a couple's sex life was not harmonious, their relationship would not be very good either.
Qiu Jingwen was very grateful to his wife.
His wife, Jiang Yuping, is truly considerate of him. Over the years, they have never had a serious argument or a major fight.
Qiu Jingwen suddenly thought of his daughter Qiuyue and asked his wife:
"Yu Ping, where's Qiu Yue? Why hasn't she come back yet?"
"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"
"Isn't she off her day shift today? She should be home by now, right?"
Qiu Yue is Qiu Jingwen's eldest daughter, the second oldest among his siblings. She is nineteen years old this year. After graduating from junior high school, she has been unemployed at home. Last year, the factory recruited her and she was assigned to the pump room. Today she was on the day shift and was supposed to finish get off work at four o'clock in the afternoon. She still hasn't come back yet, so Qiu Jingwen naturally had to ask about it.
Besides, he has read a lot of books over the years, including spy and agent novels, and he himself is a spy and agent.
Qiu Jingwen knew perfectly well that Liu Han, who suddenly appeared in the rainstorm, must have been loitering around the Hongqi Factory and had investigated him thoroughly, otherwise he wouldn't have known that Qiu Jingwen had a beautiful wife and five children.
So, at this moment,
It's understandable that he's worried about Qiuyue, who hasn't returned home yet.
Jiang Yuping responded while cooking.
"Stop asking so many questions. When Qiuyue comes back, just ask your precious daughter directly."
As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Qiu Jingwen.
She just stared at it quietly, then suddenly her pretty face flushed red.
Qiu Jingwen had just taken a bath; his face was rosy and he looked handsome and dashing, showing no signs of being a man nearing fifty.
The sickly look he had when he returned home before has completely vanished.
"Yu Ping, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Qiu Jingwen felt a little embarrassed by his wife's gaze.
"It's nothing, it's nothing. You look even more handsome after taking a bath, like a young lad!"
As Jiang Yuping spoke, she blushed and turned away.
At that moment, Wei Hong stood at the door and knocked.
"Yu Ping, are you busy? I'm coming in."
