This summer vacation, the weather was so hot that the children at home didn't go out to play. We were on vacation at a farm estate in the west of the city. During the hottest time, we all soaked in the swimming pool. The little ones didn't suffer from the sun at all.
However, Shen Anning was not so comfortable. The hospital did not close for 365 days a year. Moreover, because a special Chinese medicine hospital was opened in Ontario this year, the leaders of the health and medical department in Beijing also intended to set up such a place to promote Chinese medicine.
Therefore, the "young person" Shen Anning was naturally "entrusted with an important task", and she was one of the ten traditional Chinese medicine teams selected for the inspection.
When Cao Jingheng and the children learned the news, the little ones didn't react much, because the manor was far from the city, and recently their mom and dad would only go over to accompany them on Sundays. There were so many toys, they could swim, ride horses, and eat a lot of delicious food, so the children said it didn't matter.
The eldest brother took the lead, followed by the two younger brothers, and the three children hugged Shen Anning, "Mom, you've been tired on your business trip, you must take good care of yourself, and call us every day, okay, Mu."
With their brother setting an example in front, the twins naturally didn't want to lose the upper hand. One of them pulled Shen An Ning's hand and covered both sides of Shen An Ning's face with saliva.
"Mom, mom, thank you for your hard work."
"Mom, call me."
"Yeah, and it has to be delicious."
Every time someone in the family comes back from a business trip, bringing delicious local specialties has become a memory that the two little ones will remember deeply. Although they are young and can only taste the food each time, the rare and special taste is what makes them unforgettable.
"I know, you two little greedy cats, Mommy will remember this: you must behave well at home and listen to the ladies. Don't do anything that the adults forbid you to do secretly. Also, you are not allowed to ride the pony without someone accompanying you."
Hearing his mother say this, little Cao Siheng touched his nose. The last time he took his younger brother to go horseback riding without the adults at home on his back, he didn't get to ride the horse, but was frightened by them instead. The crazy look of the horse scared Shen Zixuan so much that he couldn't sleep well at night.
Because of this, he was severely criticized.
"I know, Mom, I will never do that again, don't worry."
After hugging her eldest son, Shen Anning said softly, "Mom doesn't mean to bring up the past, and I don't mean to blame you anymore. I just want you to think carefully before doing anything in the future, okay?"
After having dinner at the manor, because they were leaving the next day and their luggage was not packed, Shen Anning had to say goodbye to her grandparents and children and got on the car back to the courtyard.
At this moment, she understood everything. In the afternoon, the man brought her to the manor without letting her pack her luggage, and now he brought her back to the courtyard, counting the abacus beads so hard that they almost hit her face.
From the courtyard gate to the door of their bedroom, every step Shen An Ning took was "heavy". The man wore leather shoes and stepped on the bluestone slabs, making a clattering sound. Every step was on the tip of Shen An Ning's heart.
Open the door, close the door, the lights are not on yet.
"Hey, the lights aren't on yet."
“No impact.”
Moving from the door to the bathroom, the misty water vapor spread out, and the whole room seemed to be filled with fog. The two people who were in love could only see each other.
"Don't go too far on the noon bus tomorrow, or someone will notice."
The man who had been leaving marks all over his wife's body like a puppy heard this and silently lowered his head, "It's okay, they can't see it."
It was unknown how many days it would take for him to return from this business trip, and Shen Anning did not stop the man. The consequence of this indulgence was that they arrived home at around 8 o'clock, and did not go to bed until the early morning.
"Luggage, I haven't packed my luggage yet."
"It's okay, just sleep on your own and I'll help you clean up. Go to sleep."
Really tired and sleepy, Shen Anning no longer had the energy to think, hugging the pillow and fell asleep.
The next day, Shen An Ning didn't wake up until half past nine, her stomach growling, and the man's arm was still on her chest.
"Awake?"
"Yeah, I'm hungry. When did you wake up? Why aren't you getting up?"
Cao Jingheng turned his wife's body towards him and said, "I woke up a long time ago. I bought breakfast and kept it warm in the pot. I couldn't bear to leave you. I wanted to hold you and sleep for a while."
"Let's get up then. I'm hungry. Have you packed your luggage?"
While helping his wife get dressed, he tried to find a last bit of comfort for himself. "I've packed everything. I've prepared five changes of clothes for you, a pair of replacement shoes, several sets of socks and underwear, and toiletries. If you bring too much, we'll all be going there by train, and I'm afraid it'll be inconvenient for you. If you need anything when you get there, you can go buy it on the street with your senior sisters, okay?"
"Well, on the way to the train station later, I'll buy you some fruit to eat on the way."
Tofu pudding and beef biscuits. She was really hungry all night. Shen An Ning ate three of them and ate up all the tofu pudding.
"Is it enough? Do you want to eat some more?"
Shen Anning shook her head. She still had to take the train later, and if she ate too much, she would not feel comfortable on the train.
Afraid that she looked too bad, Shen An Ning put on some light makeup after dinner. When she sat in the passenger seat, she was thankful that she was on the list of people going on this business trip. Otherwise, even if she stayed in Beijing, that man would not let her go. With the elderly and children at home, it had become a paradise for him to do whatever he wanted.
"Okay, I'm going in. It's so hot outside, you should go back soon. You don't have to go to work in the afternoon, so go spend time with the children and grandparents." Taking the two bags from the man's hands, Shen An Ning prepared to get on the train without looking back.
Cao Jingheng was quick and grabbed the man back. "Remember to call. The mobile phone is in your handbag. Don't wait until you call those brats at night before you think of me."
"Um?"
Looking at the man's face getting closer and closer, Shen Anning nodded frantically, "I know, I know. I think about this the first thing I do when I wake up in the morning and the last thing before I go to bed at night, okay?"
Following the large group, Shen Anning, who got on the train, was indeed teased by his colleagues.
"Oh, every time I look at An Ning, I know that An Ning is living the most comfortable life. Look at her husband. The one in our family is simply no match for Director Cao."
"Yeah, who says it's not true? There are so few men with good temperaments nowadays. The key is whether our An Ning is worthy of it. It can be seen that Director Cao is completely fascinated by our Ning Ning. This business trip will only take half a month, it's not like he won't be back."
After working in the hospital for so many years, Shen Anning, who had become very thick-skinned, heard this. The key point was that there were still passengers coming and going in the aisle and the door was not closed. Her ears still turned red visibly.
She quickly stuffed the fruit in her hand into the hands of several people, "Sisters, you must be thirsty, eat some fruit, it's very hot, and we don't know what lunch will be later, so eat some."
Knowing that she was embarrassed, the sisters who had been married for more than ten or twenty years stopped teasing her. After all, people are always soft-hearted!
