Shen Mingzhi snorted, "Anyway, we're just talking about it as husband and wife. Don't say it in front of her. You have to protect Engineer Ye's reputation."
“If she’s this restless, she’s not suitable for Jianhua.” Jiang Shaochen genuinely considered Ye Jianhua a friend, but he never expected his girlfriend to be so gossipy.
Shen Mingzhi looked at him for a while and said in a low voice, "I'm just venting to you because I'm upset. Don't interfere in other people's relationships. If you ask what the hardest thing in the world is, it's the relationship between a young couple."
Jiang Shao Chen sighed, "What if she keeps talking nonsense to you?"
"Then I'll get angry with you," Shen Mingzhi laughed. "Who told you to look like a womanizer?"
Jiang Shaozhen was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the mirror in front of him. "Really? I've always thought I'm just average-looking."
The most handsome people are those who are unaware of their own good looks.
Shen Mingzhi now deeply understands this.
"Take a shower first, it'll be time to eat soon," Shen Mingzhi said, turning to leave.
Jiang Shaozhen pulled her into the bathroom and handed her a razor, saying, "Shave me, I keep cutting myself."
Unlike future electric razors, modern razors won't have this problem.
The razors available now are the thin-bladed kind, which Shen Mingzhi finds difficult to use, and she's also afraid of accidentally cutting Jiang Shaozhen's chin.
The blade is too sharp.
Shen Mingzhi washed the razor, put on a new blade, and had him lean against the mirror. She said to him, "Don't move. I'm not very good at this either."
Small plastic frames held round lenses. Shen Mingzhi and Jiang Shaozhen's faces were reflected in them.
Shen Mingzhi applied foam to his face and then slowly scraped it off.
Jiang Shaochen shaves almost every day, and his face is clean and white.
Shen Mingzhi realized he was doing it on purpose, so she immediately put down the razor and said with a stern face, "You shaved yourself this morning, didn't you? There's not a single stubble. Why are you shaving again?"
Seeing that she was about to leave, Jiang Shaozhen immediately reached out and grabbed her wrist, a smile on his face, "Isn't it because I wanted you to tell me more of your secrets?"
The two were deeply in love.
Jiang Shaozhen felt that he and Shen Mingzhi spent too little time together, and he always wanted to be alone with her and chat with her about random things.
"We've been married for so long, why are you still whispering secrets? What secrets do you want to whisper?" Shen Mingzhi asked.
Jiang Shao Chen smiled and said, "Tell me everything, just like the things you told me when you came back, all sorts of random things. That makes me happy."
"I'm talking badly about other people, and you actually enjoy listening to it?" Shen Mingzhi asked, her tone tinged with surprise.
"Yes, that means you consider me someone you can trust." Jiang Shao Chen nodded.
He and Shen Mingzhi had a child without any feelings between them... Since there was no emotional foundation between them, he often worried that Shen Mingzhi still harbored resentment towards him and would not tell him about any grievances she had, bearing everything on her own.
Shen Mingzhi tapped his forehead. "I've always trusted you, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you for help."
Jiang Shaochen took off his shirt, revealing his muscular upper body and well-defined abdominal muscles.
Shen Mingzhi reached out and touched it. "It's really sturdy."
The thought of the sweat dripping down his abs made Shen Mingzhi's face flush.
As she turned to leave, Jiang Shao Chen grabbed her hand again and placed it on his abs. "Wash it again?"
"Your parents are here, aren't you ashamed?" Shen Mingzhi forcefully slapped her hand away.
Jiang Shao Chen held her hand tightly. "Do you want me to practice more?"
“Okay, you’d better stay like this until you’re old. I like to see people with good figures, not those who are overweight,” Shen Mingzhi said with a smile.
"Then I'll stick with it until I'm old," Jiang Shaozhen said, lifting her hand and kissing it. "I'll take good care of you while we sleep."
Shen Mingzhi slapped him and turned to leave the bathroom.
When Jiang Shaochen finished showering, Shen Mingzhi's face was still burning.
Jiang Shaochen, wearing a vest, sat at the dining table, glanced at the sky, and said, "It's getting warmer."
Shen Mingzhi thought, yes, it's been a year.
At this time last year, my child had just been born and was still a baby.
They're both a year old now, and they've already started fighting.
“We have air conditioning at home, so I’m not worried about the child getting too hot,” Jiang Qing said, glancing at her son’s healthy body. She couldn’t help but add, “Should we consider having a third child?”
"By the way, will you change the packaging of the goods you're sending to the Canton Fair?" Jiang Shaozhen immediately started talking to Shen Mingzhi about work.
"It's being revised; we're still working on the prototype," Shen Mingzhi replied.
Jiang Shaozhen nodded and said to himself, "It really needs to be changed, to make it slightly more in line with the style of the overseas market."
“I’m considering using ink wash painting style, what do you think?” Shen Mingzhi said.
“The ink painting style won’t work. You have to use the style from Europe and America. Now we’re catering to them, not the other way around,” Jiang Shaozhen said, picking up his rice bowl and shoveling rice into his mouth.
Jiang Guofu looked at Jiang Qing, who was speechless, scratched his head, and said, "Let's eat."
Jiang Qing put down her bowl and chopsticks. "Did you two hear what I said?!"
Her face was stern, and her tone was full of anger.
Shen Mingzhi grunted but didn't say anything.
Jiang Shaozhen put down his rice bowl and said in a muffled voice, "I won't have any more children. Zhizhi and I both need Dad's support for our work. Besides... you know what the country's policies are now. As a military family, we should follow the policies. If everyone is like us, able to have more children just because they have money, then what's the point of the country issuing these policies? Families like ours should set an example."
"I didn't have many children back then to set an example. I already have two sons, and now you're the only one left. And because of her, you don't get along with your sister, who's always alone—"
"What sister? Do I even have a sister?" Jiang Shao Chen interrupted her impatiently. "Don't bring up people I don't want to talk about while I'm eating. I don't get along with her, but she doesn't get along with me. So what? Just because she calls my daughter or son a bastard, does that mean I have to treat her with leniency? Your brothers and sisters call us bastards, and you can tolerate that too?!"
Jiang Guofu tried to pull Jiang Qing away when she was about to speak, but he couldn't stop her.
"Am I trying to harm you by making you have children? With more children, you'll have someone to rely on in your old age. Having more children is a blessing. Am I doing this for my own benefit?!" Jiang Qing slammed her hand on the table.
As soon as she finished speaking, Niannian, who was sitting in the stroller next to her, imitated her, slammed her hand on the board in front of the stroller, and started chattering away.
Jiang Qing was stunned for a moment, and her anger suddenly vanished after seeing her actions.
She sat down with a forced smile and said, "Let's eat."
After saying that, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, "This little girl, she imitates everyone she sees, she's so young and already knows how to parrot what others say."
