"Well, this mushroom tastes really good, with a pine scent. It's also quite tender." Zeng Wenjuan praised. Seeing Goudan clumsily picking up the mushroom, she turned around and went to the kitchen to clean a clay spoon and came out: "Goudan, I'll scoop a few spoonfuls into your bowl."
"Thank you, Mom." Goudan stirred the food and started eating it in big mouthfuls. He was not at all like the later children who needed to be fed with their mouths full of food.
The weather was getting colder and colder, and the food would get colder if we ate slowly. The family quickly finished their meal, Zeng Wenjuan started to clean up the dishes, and Zhao Jianguo took Goudan back to the room and coaxed him to sleep.
"In the past, when there were no humans in the world, the entire world was occupied by various dinosaurs. They would always fight for territory and would not stop until there was a winner or a loser."
"Dad, why are they fighting for territory? Can't everyone have their own home like we do now?" Goudan asked sincerely.
"Because they are social animals, in order to reproduce the offspring of a species, they need a larger territory and they all want to become the overlord of an area." Zhao Jianguo explained to Goudan.
"What happened to them later? Why have I never seen a dinosaur?" Goudan became curious about dinosaurs.
"When the dinosaurs were fighting for territory, they caused irreversible damage to the world. So they experienced a huge catastrophe. Mountain torrents, mudslides, tsunamis, tornadoes and all kinds of natural disasters were all the results of the causes caused by the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs disappeared in the long river of history." Zhao Jianguo explained to Goudan.
Goudan was too young to understand the meaning, but he became deeply curious about dinosaurs.
"Dad, what does that dinosaur look like? I want to see a picture of it."
"Some dinosaurs had sharp swords on their bodies, some could fly, some dinosaurs ate grass, and some dinosaurs ate meat. There are also some that could breathe fire. But the information we found is too little to restore their true appearance," said Zhao Jianguo.
"Oh! That's such a pity." Goudan suddenly felt a sorrow that was not suitable for his age.
"Okay! That's all for today's story. Go to bed quickly. Go to bed early and get up early so that you can grow taller." Zhao Jianguo gently patted Goudan's shoulder to coax him to sleep.
Goudan seemed to have a switch pressed and closed his eyes in less than five seconds. A minute later, the sound of Goudan's even breathing could be heard.
Zhao Jianguo did not get up immediately. Goudan had just started sleeping in separate rooms, so he was always afraid and had to wait until Goudan fell into a deep sleep before leaving. He would not wake up until dawn.
Zeng Wenjuan washed the dishes and went to the bathroom to wash up. When Zeng Wenjuan came out, Zhao Jianguo also came out of Goudan's room. He saw Zeng Wenjuan's beautiful appearance. A large area of snow-white skin was exposed, round and full. She bent down to wipe her hair with a towel, charming and enchanting.
Zhao Jianguo swallowed subconsciously.
"Goudan fell asleep." Zeng Wenjuan wiped the moisture from her hair and asked Zhao Jianguo who was standing opposite her.
"You fell asleep. Why did you wash your hair at night? If you don't dry it, you will have a headache when you wake up tomorrow." Zhao Jianguo pushed the wheelchair to Zeng Wenjuan, who took the towel and helped wipe Zhao Jianguo's hair.
"I was busy picking mushrooms during the day and didn't have time to clean them. I always feel like I have a smell if I don't wash up after going up the mountain." Zeng Wenjuan sat on the chair next to Zhao Jianguo.
Zhao Jianguo gently wiped Zeng Wenjuan's hair until it was completely dry. Zhao Jianguo picked up the comb and helped Zeng Wenjuan comb her hair.
"Your hair is a little dry and not as black and shiny as before." Zhao Jianguo held the end of Zeng Wenjuan's hair and observed it carefully.
"Maybe it's because I'm old. I'll just use scissors to cut my hair short tomorrow." Zeng Wenjuan said as she pulled her hair back.
How could she not know that this was due to lack of nutrition? She had not had enough to eat or wear warm clothes in the Zhao family before, so it was even more impossible for her to eat something good. She had no nutrition for her body, let alone her hair.
"I'll find a way to help you take care of your hair. You'll look good with long hair." Zhao Jianguo knew that Zeng Wenjuan liked long hair since she was a child, so he still wanted to help her take care of her hair.
Zeng Wenjuan didn't say anything else, she stood up and said to Zhao Jianguo, "I'll go get some water to help you wash your feet." After that, Zeng Wenjuan went into the bathroom to get some water.
Then she brought out a basin of water and placed it at Zhao Jianguo's feet. Zeng Wenjuan squatted down to help Zhao Jianguo take off his shoes and socks, put his feet in the water, looked up and asked: "How is it? The water temperature is just right!"
"Well, thank you." Zhao Jianguo whispered.
Zeng Wenjuan smiled and said, "We are a family, it's only natural."
After they had finished packing and lay down on the bed together, Zeng Wenjuan was tired after a long day and fell asleep quickly.
Zhao Jianguo stretched out his hand, put it under Zeng Wenjuan's neck, pulled Zeng Wenjuan into his arms, and fell asleep with her.
......
......
After breakfast, Zeng Wenjuan borrowed a hoe from Wang Hui’s wife and took seeds to plant vegetables in her private plot.
"Let me go with you!" Zhao Jianguo said as he pushed the wheelchair to Zeng Wenjuan.
Zeng Wenjuan frowned: "Your leg is injured, you should rest at home!"
"It's okay. I haven't been downstairs for a long time. I just wanted to go out for a walk. I'll go downstairs first with my crutches, and you help carry the wheelchair down." Zhao Jianguo said to Zeng Wenjuan.
Zeng Wenjuan thought so too, so she nodded and agreed: "Okay, then I'll go to the stairs in my wheelchair first."
As soon as the family of three went downstairs, they saw the military wives chatting downstairs.
"Hey! Captain Xiao Zhao, you're down. How's your leg injury? Is it healing soon?" an old lady asked with a smile.
"Almost. Now I can walk for an hour with a cane." Zhao Jianguo said very modestly.
"Your wife takes good care of you! I see her buying bones, chicken and meat every few days to bring back for your nutrition. She is also very diligent, and the bacon and other things are made very well!" The old lady saw Zeng Wenjuan's hard work these days.
"Yes, Wenjuan has been capable since she was young. I am very lucky to have married Wenjuan as my wife." Zhao Jianguo was happier to hear someone praising Zeng Wenjuan than to be praised himself.
"You are preparing to plant vegetables now, right? They may not survive in this weather! They will easily freeze to death once they sprout." The old lady saw the hoe in Zeng Wenjuan's hand and said.
"Yes! I plan to add a layer of tricolor paper in the vegetable garden. The vegetables will still freeze to death, and I have no choice but to give it a try." Zeng Wenjuan had a stack of tricolor paper in her backpack.
