Sheng Tunan did not agree at first. He didn't know whether Zhan Xinyue was willing to have a second child, but he couldn't ask his wife directly in front of the family how many children she wanted to have.
I don't want to make things difficult for Zhan Xinyue.
What if my wife wants to have a baby?
In that case, is it possible that his parents would be very disappointed and take their dissatisfaction out on Zhan Xinyue?
Sheng Tunan thought for a while and replied, "Dad, you have to let nature take its course when giving birth. I don't know what will happen in the future. What if I am infertile?"
Sheng Tunan simply said the worst possible outcome, and without waiting for Shen Min'e to speak, he continued: "Of course, if my Xinyue can have many children, there will definitely be a child with the surname Sheng."
"Okay." Shen Min'e nodded quickly. The fact that he had a son was enough. With the Shen family's genes and Sheng Tunan's physique, it was impossible for him to be infertile.
Maybe, she could even give birth to twins like him.
"Teacher Dong, you can eat now." Chef Chen, wearing an apron, a hat and a mask, came out of the kitchen.
The food had already been served, a total of sixteen dishes, plus two soups. The Shen family had big appetites, so each dish was served full on a large plate.
"Okay. Let's eat first." Dong Wushuang took Zhan Xinyue's hand and led her to the restaurant.
"Teacher Dong, my daughter and son-in-law are coming over, so I won't eat here."
Master Chen is the old chef of the Shen family. They used to have meals together. But now it is an important day when the eldest son of the Shen family comes back. Master Chen wants to find a reason to leave so that their family can have a good reunion dinner.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Master Chen." Dong Wushuang nodded and took out the red envelope he had prepared long ago.
Master Chen's salary was paid by the organization. Dong Wushuang knew how to cook, and she was already well-off, so every time there was a family reunion or a banquet for guests, if Master Chen cooked more than ten dishes, she would prepare a red envelope of moderate size.
"Thank you, Teacher Dong." Master Chen took it with both hands and thanked him gratefully.
He understood that the organization had paid him a salary, and these were additional benefits. Dong Wushuang could choose not to pay, but she gave them out of love.
Chef Chen is also a good person. He knows how to be grateful when receiving red envelopes. He tries his best to cook every meal, making it clean and nutritious.
Everyone ate around the round table, and Dong Wushuang prepared wine.
Except for Shen Min'e, a patient who had just been discharged from the hospital, everyone could drink. Dong Wushuang poured Shen Min'e a glass of orange juice, and everyone raised their glasses to celebrate their eldest brother's return home.
Everyone in the Shen family can drink. After guzzling the first glass, they continue with the second glass, wishing the eldest brother and his wife a happy marriage and a long life together.
After two cups, they started eating. Half of the food on the table was Hunan cuisine. Except for Shen Min'e, who couldn't eat it due to dietary restrictions, everyone else accepted it well.
Shen Fuyao ate a spicy shrimp and her mouth turned red. She drank more wine and became more relaxed than usual. She finished eating the shrimp and asked Sheng Tunan,
"Brother, what are your plans for the future? Do you want to return to the capital to develop? This is the capital, and the conditions are better than on the island. And in the capital military region, there will be no exclusion for you."
After all, Captain He is their neighbor, and Shen Fuyao and Shen Zhiyan are both very famous in the military. One is known for his intelligence and the other has won the title of Soldier King for two consecutive years with his strong physical strength and good skills.
With brothers and sisters like him, plus Commander He, no one dared to make Sheng Tunan unhappy.
As for why Shen Fuyao said this, it was because when Sheng Tunan was on the upper floor of the Xinyue Exhibition, she found Zhu Haoran and asked him about what happened when she went to the island to "capture" Sheng Tunan. Zhu Haoran told Shen Fuyao exactly what Dongfang Xiaoqing said.
Shen Fuyao found out that Dongfang Xiaoqing was the beloved of the island's boss. Of course, he didn't want his elder brother to be bullied again when he returned. Besides, there were many more opportunities to make achievements in the capital than in that barren place.
"Brother," Shen Zhiyan held up a chicken wing, "Come to the Capital Military Region, so we can be together."
