Here, Su Li was lying on the bed, patting Baoya with her hands, and the little girl kept trying to get into Su Li's arms.
His little face rubbed against her unconsciously and he slept soundly.
The kang was warm, and she slowly narrowed her eyes. Just as she was about to tuck herself in and go to sleep, the door suddenly opened, bringing in a breath of cool air.
Xie Zhengchuan closed the door, walked to the kang and started taking off his shoes and clothes.
Su Li was a little confused at first, then slowly opened her eyes and looked at him.
“………”
It was only when Xie Zhengchuan, wearing his autumn clothes, lay down beside her and pulled her blanket that she realized, "What are you doing, Xie Zhengchuan? What are you doing here?"
"It's too crowded over there, there's no room for him to sleep, and didn't you say we should treat everyone equally? How could that guy not have his own blanket? I gave him my blanket for your dignity, and I can't let him get cold, right?"
He blinked his almond-shaped eyes, looking quite innocent.
"Are you sick? I've told Shi Tou that they slept together." Su Li stared at him and said this.
"I'm not sick, I'm in good health. If you don't believe me, feel it." As he said that, he pulled Su Li's hand to his chest.
Su Li was burned by his body temperature and repeatedly retracted her hands. She blushed and was about to get angry, but Xie Zhengchuan suddenly put his finger on Su Li's lips.
"Shh~ Speak softly, don't wake Baoya up."
Su Li felt a breath stuck in her heart, unable to go up or down.
Xie Zhengchuan looked at Su Li's unhappy expression and sighed.
"Wife, are you unhappy that I'm back from military service? You're so nice to the kids and to our parents, but why are you so cold to me? Did I do something wrong?"
"No, I just..."
"Actually, if you're unhappy, I can sleep in the east room! Even though there's no quilt and it's a bit crowded, I don't want you to be unhappy even if I have to freeze all night."
"no……"
"Even if you don't like me anymore, it doesn't matter. I just want to be closer to you. You're so nice now, I'm afraid you won't want me anymore, ah!"
"that………"
"I think..."
Su Li didn't want to listen to him anymore, and quickly covered his mouth, "Shut up! Sleep, sleep, sleep now, here's the quilt for you!"
"Wife, you are so fierce, are you angry? Don't force yourself. Even if I have to wrong myself, I don't want to wrong you. Wife, why are you silent? Wife."
"Shut up, or get out."
"Good wife, go to bed early, wife."
Su Li's forehead was throbbing with veins when he kept calling her "wife". She really didn't expect that a 1.80 meter tall guy would be so noisy.
And why does the way he speaks so much like a mistress who wants to get promoted in the drama she's been following recently, with all sorts of weird words in his voice?
It’s not that she doesn’t want to be with Xie Zhengchuan, she just doesn’t want to do it so soon.
Her current life is warm, but she always feels that something is missing. If she is with Xie Zhengchuan, and she wants to go out to do business in the future, will he stop her?
Su Li lay next to Xie Zhengchuan, thinking about a lot of things, and fell asleep unknowingly.
At around six o'clock, the roosters in the village began to crow one after another. Su Li opened her eyes in a daze, and what she saw was an impeccably handsome face.
As she was lying on Xie Zhengchuan like an octopus, Su Li quickly moved back and inevitably bumped into Baoya behind her. Su Li turned around and saw the poor little girl covered with a corner of the quilt.
Awkward, very embarrassing!
Su Li quickly turned over, picked up Baoya and tucked her into the quilt.
After finishing, I looked at Xie Zhengchuan. He was fine and didn't wake up.
She put on her clothes and went out in a hurry. In her hurry, she didn't notice the slightly raised corners of the man's mouth.
For breakfast, I cooked a big pot of sweet potato and rice porridge, fried a plate of stir-fried pork with mustard greens and chili peppers, a plate of spicy and sour shredded potatoes, a bowl of beans in spicy sauce, and heated up 15 cornmeal buns.
After finishing, Su Li called Xie Zhengchuan up.
"I didn't expect it! After you retired from the army, you actually slowly changed the army's work and rest schedule. Aren't you afraid that your former comrades will laugh at you when they find out?" Su Li said with a smile.
Xie Zhengchuan glanced at her sideways and said, "There's nothing I can do. My wife is too soft and too clingy."
He pronounced the word "缠" clearly and in a low voice.
Su Li's face turned red because of him, "Bah!"
He took out the cotton-padded jacket he had just made yesterday from the cupboard and stuffed it into Xie Zhengchuan's hand.
"I just made some new cotton-padded clothes for my little girl. Go and wake the children up!"
After saying that, he turned around to get Baoya's clothes, and the little girl woke up immediately from her daze.
Xie Zhengchuan leaned forward and kissed her on the face, "Yes, sir!"
Then he turned and went out.
Su Li was stunned for a moment, raised her hand and touched the place where Xie Zhengchuan had just kissed her, she felt a little sweet and a little bitter in her heart. In fact, she had already accepted Xie Zhengchuan in her heart, the only thing she cared about was whether his current enthusiasm was directed at her or at her original mother.
But she soon let it go, as she knew how he and Yuan Qi got along in the past.
Right now, the one he cherishes is herself. From his initial doubts to his current enthusiasm, she knows that it is enough for him to keep her in his heart now.
Thinking of this, my heart suddenly became clear.
Tiedan put on a warm new cotton-padded jacket and trousers, and on his feet were Tiedan's new cotton-padded shoes, which he had never worn before.
Tiedan, Huzi and Shitou all looked at him with smiles on their faces.
Hu Zi: "Brother Dan looks really good in his new clothes."
Shitou also nodded and said, "She is prettier than both of her brothers."
Tiedan also helped him straighten the collar of his cotton-padded jacket. "Mm! It looks good. Be braver at home in the future. You were not like this before. You even had a fight with me, Huzi, and Shitou. Mom and Dad are both very good people. They loved you when you were not here, and they will love you well when you are here. Don't be afraid!"
"Well! Don't be afraid," Hu Zi also said.
Xiaodan nodded, then scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly.
The family had a satisfying breakfast, and the children were reading picture books in the living room.
Xie Zhengchuan was helping his wife clean up the dishes. Su Li only then remembered to ask about Xie Sanwan's family affairs, "Dad, what did the police station say about Xie Sanwan and Qian Maizi?"
Xie Zhengchuan looked at her in surprise. Why didn't she call him like that all of a sudden?
Su Li felt embarrassed when he looked at her, and glared at him, "What's the matter, aren't you the father of my child?"
Xie Zhengchuan laughed at his embarrassed look, "Yes, I thought it was not, ahem... Xie Sanwan and Qian Maizi tried their best to argue at the police station, saying it was just a fight between children, they didn't know it was so serious, and the patient was also said to be the child's own fault. Few people would believe a child's words, even if there were medical records from the hospital, it would be useless, they would just think it was a fuss over nothing."
Su Li sighed, "Then the household registration of the children can be transferred here so easily. I hope Xie Sanwan and Qian Maizi will agree to it."
Xie Zhengchuan went on to say, "Of course they are willing. There's one less mouth to feed at home. And the village chief also said that even if Dadan returns to their home, they won't get any food rations. They will let Dadan go to the village to fight alone. The village chief and the village will often visit their home to check on Dadan. If he has new injuries, they will parade him through the streets. Of course, this is just a talk to scare them. Who knew they would immediately eat Dadan out and not want to keep him anymore, especially Qian Maizi who was the loudest. But the police station also warned them and kept them under surveillance for only half a month."
"Oh! I knew it was like this. With the phrase 'There is nothing wrong with being a good person', they can erase the harm done to their children and allow their children to continue to support them. If they don't change, their children will always live in harm. I feel powerless just thinking about it."
Xie Zhengchuan put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands and looked at Su Li, "What about you? You used to be mean to children, too. What made you change?"
Su Li's body stiffened when he heard this.
