After Li Xiaolan helped Shen Zhengliang onto the bed, she saw that he was quite drunk, so she planned to get some hot water to wash his face.
Just as she was about to turn around, Shen Zhengliang grabbed her hand with his big hand, "Don't go!"
Li Xiaolan's heart was already beating uncontrollably and it almost jumped out of her chest.
The words that He Hui had just said to her kept replaying in her mind uncontrollably.
She used to be obsessed with Zhou Yubai, but after seeing how good Zhou Yubai was to Shen Chuning, she compared it to Zhou Yubai's indifference towards her.
Even the hottest heart will cool down.
In the days after marriage, although she and Shen Zhengliang are not as close as ordinary couples, Shen Zhengliang has indeed taken on the responsibilities of a husband.
After she arrived at the Shen family, Shen Zhengliang was the first to do any dirty, tiring or heavy work.
Even when she had her period a few days ago, Chen Zhengliang didn't let her touch cold water and rushed to wash her clothes, even her underwear.
After that, she also thought about it and felt that it would be nice to be a real couple with Chen Zhengliang and live a down-to-earth life together.
While she was thinking about this, Shen Zhengliang pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly as if he wanted to melt her into his bones and blood.
At this moment, Li Xiaolan felt as if her whole body was burning and her heart almost stopped beating.
"Meng Meng, don't go..."
However, the next second, Shen Zhengliang's drunken words were like a basin of cold water poured over her head.
In an instant, she felt a chill from head to toe.
The burning sensation on his face and body faded away, and his wildly beating heart returned to normal.
The corners of her lips unconsciously curled up with a hint of bitterness, and she stretched out her hand to push Shen Zhengliang away, “Second Brother Shen, I am not Wang Zhiqing.”
The drunk and confused Shen Zhengliang was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
He quickly let go of Li Xiaolan and apologized, "Xiaolan, I'm sorry, I drank too much..."
Li Xiaolan forced a smile, "It's okay, I know everything. Brother Shen, lie down and rest first, I'll get some hot water to wash your face."
When she walked out of the room, Li Xiaolan couldn't help but have slightly red eyes.
But he heard He Hui's irrepressible joyful voice coming from Shen Zhengxu and He Hui's room next door.
Although she had never experienced that kind of thing, Zhao Xiuying taught her a lot of experience on the night before her wedding.
Her face turned red, and the embarrassment instantly overshadowed the grievance she felt just now.
She quickly went to the kitchen to get some hot water and brought it into the house.
When she entered the room, the drunk Shen Zhengliang had already fallen asleep.
But there seemed to be traces of tears in the corners of Shen Zhengliang's eyes.
Li Xiaolan couldn't help but laugh at herself. Brother Shen's tears must be shed for Wang Zhiqing!
She wiped Shen Zhengliang's face, and when she lay in the quilt next to Shen Zhengliang, her tears still rolled down uncontrollably...

Shen Chuning was very tired last night. In the morning, she dazedly heard the crackling sound of firecrackers outside, but she couldn't open her eyes.
Although there is a slogan "Don't stop the fight on the 30th, and continue working on the first day of the new year", the unit does not give holidays, but the first day of the new year happened to fall on a rest day this year.
Shen Chuning hugged the quilt, turned over in a daze, and prepared to continue sleeping.
At this time, Lin Shulan came over and called them to eat.
"Third brother, Ningning hasn't gotten up yet? Tell her to get up and eat the glutinous rice dumplings first, and then go back to sleep after eating."
If Shen Chu Ning didn't have to go to work on weekdays and she didn't wake up, Lin Shulan would not specifically call her to get up for breakfast.
But today is different, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year.
According to custom, you cannot sleep in on the first day of the New Year and you must eat rice dumplings.
It is said that only by eating glutinous rice balls can the new year be smooth and happy.
For pregnant women like Shen Chuning who are going to give birth this year, eating glutinous rice balls on the first day of the new year is even more important.
It is said that eating glutinous rice balls on the first day of the New Year will help childbirth go more smoothly and with less suffering.
Although Zhou Yubai does not think these customs are feudal superstitions, he does not believe them either. He thinks it is more important to let his wife sleep comfortably.
He was about to help Shen Chuning reject his mother's kindness when he heard Shen Chuning's soft voice coming from the house, "Mom, I'll get dressed and go over right away."
"Okay, Ningning, take your time, put on more clothes, and don't catch a cold. Mom will wait for you to come over before putting the dumplings in the pot." Lin Shulan happily agreed to Shen Chuning and left.
Zhou Yubai: ...
His mother and his wife are like this... making him seem redundant...
Zhou Yubai turned around and went back into the house. He habitually picked up Shen Chuning and sat her on his lap. He dressed Shen Chuning like he was taking care of a child.
After helping Shen Chuning put on her clothes, he went to get some hot water for his wife to wash.
When the two of them went to the old courtyard of the Zhou family next door, several children were already looking out the gate.
Seeing them coming, the little ones ran to the kitchen, shouting, "Grandma, my uncle and aunt are here, we can cook the dumplings now!"
After eating the dumplings, it was time for the children to pay New Year’s greetings.
The six little ones from the first and second wives took an enamel basin and put it on the ground. They said auspicious words and kowtowed, making the enamel basin bang loudly.
Zhou Baoguo, Lin Shulan and Peng Kaiyuan all laughed so hard that they couldn't stop.
Especially Peng Kaiyuan.
He thought he would never have the chance to enjoy this kind of family happiness in his lifetime, but unexpectedly he found a good student before his death, who allowed him to enjoy the happiness of being surrounded by children and grandchildren.
