This time Xiao Zheng came back through the door.
However, when he came back, there was only Wang Caiyan at home.
"Uncle, why are you back at this time?" Wang Caiyan turned around and saw Xiao Zheng standing there. She was startled. How could such a big guy walk so quietly?
Xiao Zheng asked: "Where is your aunt?"
Wang Caiyan replied: "It's still early in the morning. I'll have to wait at least half an hour before I get back."
Xiao Zheng nodded, "Just do your thing."
Wang Caiyan was about to leave when she seemed to remember something and looked at Xiao Zhengyu: "Uncle, Auntie has been a little unhappy these past two days."
Xiao Zheng asked hurriedly: "What happened to her? Who bullied her?"
Wang Caiyan shook her head. "I don't know. I just felt that she was in a bad mood. I wondered if she was unhappy because you said you would come back the day before yesterday, but you didn't.... Anyway, I'm telling you this first so that you can be prepared."
Xiao Zheng loosened his hairpin and waved at Wang Caiyan, "I understand."
When Wang Caiyan was busy in the kitchen, she saw Xiao Zheng walking in with his sleeves rolled up.
Xiao Zheng asked her to go out.
Wang Caiyan was confused and said, "I'm cooking."
"I'll do it." Seeing that Wang Caiyan still didn't understand, Xiao Zheng sighed, "Didn't you say that she was unhappy because of me? I'll cook a meal to make her happy. When a man makes a mistake, only work can alleviate the guilt a little. Think about it, if your aunt comes home and sees a hardworking little bee like me, she will calm down no matter how angry she is."
"Oh, oh..." Wang Caiyan walked out in amazement, leaving a hardworking little bee busy in the kitchen.
The children came home from school first, and when they saw their father in the kitchen, they ran over in surprise.
Yuanyuan: "Dad, when did you come back?"
Dong Dong: "Dad, you didn't climb over the balcony to come in this time?"
Xiao Zheng raised the spatula and pretended to hit Dongdong, but Dongdong dodged with a smile.
Tuantuan: "Dad, are you cooking? What delicious food are you going to make?"
"We have all kinds of delicious food!" Xiao Zheng drove the children outside, "Don't stand there, go back to your room and do your homework. I'll call you when it's time for dinner."
Just as the children were about to leave, Xiao Zheng called them back.
"In a little while, when your mother comes back, you must say good things about your father, understand?"
Yuanyuan was puzzled, "What good words?"
Xiao Zheng taught her, "You can just say, Dad is very hardworking. He works as soon as he gets home. He made all the food tonight, and he made all the food that Mom likes. Dad is the best dad in the world, and the best husband in the world... Anyway, say something like that!"
Yuanyuan rubbed her arms and said, "Dad is so thick-skinned. I even got goose bumps."
"What did you say?" Xiao Zheng's eyes widened.
Yuanyuan ran away quickly, "I know, I know. I will speak well of you in front of mom."
"What a nice word! Where did you learn that phrase?" Xiao Zheng muttered.
Dong Dong suddenly said: "Dad, are you trying to please Mom because she's unhappy?"
Xiao Zheng sighed, "...your mother has never been angry with me before, but this time, Caiyan said she has been unhappy for two days."
Dong Dong: "Your actions are beyond your control. It's normal to change the agreed schedule at the last minute. Mom must have gotten used to it. Why would you be angry about this?"
"That's right," Xiao Zheng thought, "Why is that?"
Dong Dong glanced at his father and asked, "Did you do anything to offend Mom?"
"Nonsense! What could I do to let her down? I obey her in every way!"
Dongdong pursed his lips and smiled.
Xiao Zheng realized that he had spoken out of turn in front of his son. He wanted to save his image as a tall and authoritative father, so he hurriedly drove him out with a fierce face, "Go, go, don't delay me from cooking."
Dongdong tried to hold back his laughter and burst out laughing.
Xiao Zheng was anxiously waiting for his wife's return.
But when An Huan finally came back, she didn't give him a cold look as he expected. There was even a glimmer of light in her eyes when she saw him.
The look on Xiao Zheng's face as he stared at his wife, coupled with the apron he was wearing, made him look like a cautious young wife.
An Hua was puzzled. What happened?
Wang Caiyan took advantage of the opportunity and whispered something into Anhuan's ear.
An Hua couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth, but she didn't say anything.
At the dinner table, Yuanyuan was very active, reciting the lines her father had taught her: "Dad is very hardworking. He works as soon as he gets home. Tonight's meal was made by Dad alone, and all of it is Mom's favorite. Dad is the best dad in the world, and the best husband in the world!"
Xiao Zheng gave Yuanyuan an approving look, word for word, excellent!
Yuanyuan smiled proudly, she had a very good memory.
An Hua picked up a piece of food for Yuan Yuan with her chopsticks and said, "You recited it well. If you could speak more freely and not in a tone like you were reciting an essay, it would be even more perfect."
Xiao Zheng almost choked, "How do you know she carried it on her back?"
An Hua said nothing, looking at him with a half-smile.
Damn, I'm sweating.
Xiao Zheng felt that what Dongdong said made sense. His wife understood his work very well and would not be angry because she did not come home at the agreed time.
Could it be that he really did something to let his wife down?
Xiao Zheng began to doubt himself.
After finally finishing their meal, the family ate fruit and talked together, and then washed up. Then Xiao Zheng couldn't wait to go back to the bedroom and pounce on her like a hungry tiger.
An Hua stretched out her hand to stop him, "Why, do you want to continue to be a hard-working little bee to please me?"
Xiao Zheng chuckled, "I can't cook as well as Caiyan, but in this regard, I promise to serve you comfortably and make you cry for your parents."
An Hua was amused by him and punched him, "I'll give you a chance to show off, but before that, let me tell you something. Don't you want to know why I'm unhappy?"
Xiao Zheng sat up straight, "Why?"
An Hua glanced at him.
Xiao Zheng: "Really because of me?"
An Hua: "To be exact, it was you who caused it."
Xiao Zheng was confused.
An Hua told Wang Lan about her invitation to participate in the August 1st performance.
"......I haven't spoken a word to her, why did she suddenly come to invite me? What does she want to do?"
Xiao Zheng asked blankly: "Yes, what does she want to do?"
