Su Muxi said earnestly, "A family requires the joint efforts of both husband and wife to support it. You should find a chance to go back and have a good talk with your wife."
After saying that, Su Muxi picked up the scissors and continued to cut paper figures.
Seeing Su Muxi's expression, Tang Zhou knew that she didn't want to talk anymore, so he said goodbye with Wang Mingxue.
On the way home, Su Muxi's words kept echoing in Tang Zhou's mind, making him fall into deep thought.
Although he racked his brains, he still couldn't understand the deep meaning contained in it.
When Tang Zhou walked to the door of his house with a heavy heart, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
I saw his wife Fu Yuling walking up side by side with Gu Yufeng downstairs. They were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Fu Yuling's face was filled with a bright smile, a joy that came from the heart.
Tang Zhou suddenly realized that he hadn't seen such a genuine smile from her for a long time.
His thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the past, when they were young and full of vitality, with infinite passion and dreams.
They also imagined the future together and laughed heartily together.
However, as time passed, the trivialities of life gradually eroded their vitality.
Now seeing Fu Yuling so happy with someone else, Tang Zhou couldn't help but feel a little sad.
He stood there, watching Fu Yuling and Gu Yufeng approach quietly.
For some reason, the picture of them standing together seemed particularly harmonious, like a loving couple.
Until they discovered Tang Zhou's presence, Fu Yuling's smile disappeared instantly, replaced by a hint of embarrassment and uneasiness.
Tang Zhou forced a smile, nodded to them, and then walked into the house silently.
Fu Yuling took the dish from Gu Yufeng's hand, looked at him tacitly, said goodbye silently with her eyes, and then followed Tang Zhou into the house.
Fu Yuling carried the dishes into the kitchen and asked Tang Zhou, who was sitting on the sofa, a little awkwardly.
"Haven't you been busy lately and haven't been back? Is there something going on today?"
"Yeah, something."
Tang Zhou's gaze fell on Fu Yuling. Looking at her busy figure in the kitchen, he couldn't help feeling a pang of pain in his heart.
Just then, a shout came from downstairs.
"Third floor, the gas tank has been delivered!"
When Fu Yuling heard the sound, she quickly put down the work in her hands, walked quickly to the window and looked down.
"Hey, Master, please wait a moment. I'll go down and get it."
"Hey, the master will be here soon, please wait a moment."
Before she finished speaking, Fu Yuling turned around and was about to open the door and walk out.
Seeing this, Tang Zhou quickly stood up from the sofa and called out to her.
"Yuling, I'll go."
After saying that, he walked quickly downstairs.
Fu Yuling quickly followed
"Old Tang, the gas tank is too heavy. Let me do it."
However, Tang Zhou did not respond to her, but continued to walk downstairs.
The tricycle driver saw someone getting off the tricycle and immediately jumped off.
"It's on the third floor, right?"
Tang Zhou nodded in agreement.
The master unloaded a gas tank from the tricycle, then took out a notebook and handed it to Tang Zhou.
"Come, sign here."
Tang Zhou saw his building number and house number written on the notebook, so he wrote his name on it.
The master checked and confirmed that everything was correct, then rode away on his tricycle.
Fu Yuling also followed him downstairs. Seeing Tang Zhou preparing to lift the gas tank, she hurried forward to help.
"Let's carry it up together."
Tang Zhou smiled and refused: "Why would I need two people for one gas tank? I can do it myself."
Tang Zhou grabbed the edge of the gas tank with both hands and tried to lift it up, but he felt that the gas tank was extremely heavy.
He tried to walk a few steps, but his hands started to feel sore and he felt like he couldn't lift anything anymore.
He gritted his teeth and held his breath for a few more steps before he no longer had the strength to move forward.
I had no choice but to put the gas tank heavily on the ground.
Fu Yuling stepped forward again and said with concern: "You don't usually do this kind of physical work, so you may not be able to do it all at once. Let me do it."
Tang Zhou still shook his head stubbornly: "No, I just don't believe that I can't move such a small gas tank."
So he changed his strategy, put his arms around the gas tank and prepared to carry it upstairs.
Fu Yuling was about to say that this was not possible, but when she saw Tang Zhou's stubborn expression, she swallowed the words back.
She just stood there quietly, watching Tang Zhou trying various methods to move the heavy gas tank upstairs bit by bit.
When Tang Zhou finally moved the gas tank to the door of his house, he was already exhausted, panting and sweating profusely.
Fu Yuling opened the door and looked at Tang Zhou gasping for breath, her face full of heartache.
"You look so tired and sweaty that your white shirt has turned black. Go wash and change your clothes."
After saying that, Fu Yuling effortlessly picked up the gas tank and moved it to the kitchen.
Tang Zhou looked at Fu Yuling who easily picked up the gas tank with a gloomy expression.
He quietly went back to his room to change his clothes, then went to the kitchen.
Fu Yuling was picking and washing vegetables. He walked over and said, "I have nothing to do right now, so I'll cook with you."
Fu Yuling smiled at Tang Zhou and teased, "For so many years, apart from work, you know nothing about family matters. You should go read a book. I'm very quick here."
Tang Zhou didn't move, but insisted: "I don't want to study today. I don't know how to learn. Just let me help you."
Fu Yuling turned around and saw that Tang Zhou really wanted to help, so she pointed to the pile of vegetables she had just bought today.
"Then peel some green onions for me first."
Tang Zhou immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll peel the onions."
But when he looked at the vegetables in the bag, he suddenly became troubled - he didn't know which part was the green onion!
At this moment, he finally understood what Su Muxi meant by her last words.
He said to Fu Yuling who was washing vegetables, "Yuling, I just remembered that I have something else to take care of, so I won't help you cook for now."
Fu Yuling didn't even turn her head, her hands kept moving, and she responded briskly: "Okay, then you can go and get busy. We'll have dinner when you get back from school."
Tang Zhou returned to the study silently and sat at the desk with a lonely expression.
He began to recall every detail of his marriage to Fu Yuling.
Over the years, due to his busy work, he often had to travel and had no time and energy to take care of his family.
However, Fu Yuling has always been very understanding of his hard work, and she has taken on all the big and small things in the family by herself.
Because of Fu Yuling's diligence and virtue, he gradually got used to this lifestyle and took it for granted.
Thinking of this, Tang Zhou's heart was filled with guilt and self-blame.
