The father and son talked in whispers for a long time.

The little guy talked a lot in front of Chu Changfeng, and he even mentioned peaches.

Having said that, the little guy quickly climbed up.

"Niannian, where are you going?"

"Daddy, wait a minute, there's something good!"

After a while, the little guy came back in the dark, got into bed, and took out the half of the nectarine that he had hidden in his arms.

"Daddy, eat it quickly. I'm telling you, this peach is delicious! It's sweeter than candy!"

As he said that, he took the peach and stuffed it into Chu Changfeng's mouth.

Chu Changfeng took a bite. It was crisp and sweet. The juice exploded in his mouth and moistened his throat.

This peach...why is it so delicious?

"Daddy! Isn't it delicious? Did I lie to you?" The little guy's excited tone showed that he was asking for praise.

Chu Changfeng: "Yeah, it's delicious. Everything I bring back every year is delicious."

"Ha..." The little guy chuckled, then quickly covered his mouth and continued to laugh.

Chu Changfeng took a bite and couldn't bear to eat it anymore. "Niannian, you can eat the rest."

The little guy was not happy, "I have already eaten a lot, the rest are yours, if you don't eat them, Niannian will be angry!"

Chu Changfeng still didn't eat.

The little guy snorted and kicked his leg lightly.

This is a little temper tantrum.

Chu Changfeng felt soft in his heart, "Daddy is not used to eating peaches."

"But...it's really delicious..."

"Then eat more every year."

The little guy was breathing heavily and stopped talking.

Chu Changfeng sighed, knowing his stubborn temper.

He was somewhat helpless: "Then you eat with Daddy."

Although the little guy was still reluctant, he still agreed.

Shen Zhi listened to them talking quietly, listening to them sharing their pitiful half a nectarine, and suddenly she felt very envious, so envious that she wanted to cry.

Even though it was so difficult for them, they were so happy at this moment.

And from childhood to adulthood, no one has ever been willing to snuggle with her or give her half a steamed bun, and it is always a fight between everyone.

After eating the nectarines, the father and son continued chatting.

The little guy said excitedly that his mother made him rice, fragrant meat, and noodles!

Chu Changfeng listened, but he didn't feel happy. Instead, he wondered if Shen Zhi was planning something bad.

After all, not everyone is willing to eat white flour, let alone meat.

Thinking of what Shen Zhi once said about selling this little guy...his breathing quickened.

"Niannian, if your mother says she wants to sell you, go find the village chief and hide in his house. Don't come out."

Shen Zhi: "..."

"Mom won't sell me out." The little guy pursed his lips. Thinking of Shen Zhi who would touch his head today, he couldn't help but laugh, "Daddy, I think Mom has become a better person. I like Mom so much."

Chu Changfeng pursed his lips tightly and his eyes were gloomy.

Listening to the little fellow's praise, he knew that this little fool was easily deceived and might not even know he was being sold.

No, we can't just sit there and wait for death.

While he still has time, he has to think of a way out for this little fool.

"Niannian, go call your mother over. I have something to say to her."

Chu Jinnian blinked his eyes, and then he remembered a fact, "Dad... Mom... Mom sleeps with us."

Chu Changfeng frowned.

"Right next to you."

Shen Zhi was afraid that the man would wet the bed at night, so she wanted to sleep by the wall, far away from him. Chu Changfeng could not move, so naturally he did not notice the presence of another person on the bed.

He turned his head and could vaguely see a figure lying next to him in the dim room.

He was stunned.

Why is Shen Zhi sleeping here?

Ever since he came back from the battlefield paralyzed, Shen Zhi wanted to regard him as a rat in a cesspool, and even looking at him was unlucky.

Not to mention sleeping in the same bed with him.

He wanted to ask Chu Jinnian why she was here, but after hesitating for a moment, he didn't ask. What could this little girl know?

Looking at Shen Zhi again, Chu Changfeng's expression was solemn. What exactly did she want to do?

Marrying Shen Zhi was arranged by my parents and the matchmaker.

They had never met before they got married.

Chu Changfeng was a handsome young man known to everyone in the surrounding area. Before he got married, there were countless girls who liked him.

His parents were busy arranging his marriage for two years.

In the end, they decided on Shen Zhi, a girl from the Shen family who lived dozens of miles away from their Xiaolin Village.

When Chu's father and mother heard that Shen Zhi was extremely beautiful, they decided to find a match for their son. After meeting Shen Zhi in person, they found that she was more beautiful than they had imagined. After asking about her character and personality, they decided to marry her immediately.

After getting married, Chu Changfeng discovered that Shen Zhi's personality and character were not what he had expected.

Selfish, lazy, and even...even dressed up flashy and chatted and laughed with many men in the village every day.

Chu Changfeng went to work in the county town two days after her wedding. Unexpectedly, she became pregnant just on the wedding night.

After giving birth to Chu Jinzhou, Chu Changfeng never touched Shen Zhi again.

Chu Jinnian's arrival was a surprise.

Because Chu Changfeng found out that she had stolen all the money in the family to subsidize her parents' home to buy a cow, he was really furious and wanted to divorce her no matter what.

Shen Zhi didn't know what to do. Even if she divorced, she would still be looked down upon, so she drugged Chu Changfeng.

She wants to get pregnant.

As long as she is pregnant, Chu Changfeng will definitely not divorce her.

Unexpectedly, she was really pregnant, but apart from giving her money to buy things to take care of her body, Chu Changfeng went hunting in the mountains every day to make money and was unwilling to come back.

Shen Zhi had a difficult labor when she gave birth to Chu Jinnian, and the birth lasted for two days and two nights.

She had suffered enough, and Chu Changfeng's heart softened, but just two days after the child was born, he was drafted into the army.

This time I was gone for three years.

He was not sent back until three months ago.

However, he has become a paralyzed person who cannot move.

The moment Chu Changfeng knew he was paralyzed, he never thought of dragging her down, but he didn't expect that she was even more heartless than he imagined.

She did not leave for the money given by Chu's father and mother every month, but she took the money and did not take good care of him and the children, and was even reluctant to give them a bite of food.

If it weren’t for Nian Nian, Chu Changfeng thought, he would probably not survive more than ten days.

Thinking of this, he lowered his head to look at the round little head in his arms.

Unexpectedly, the child who was born beyond his expectations and even with a hint of disgust was like the warm sun in a winter night, desperately giving him warmth and trying desperately to save him.

Noticing that he was looking at her, Chu Jinnian whispered, "Daddy, it's really late now, don't call mommy, or she will be angry. If she's angry, she won't let you sleep here, be good."

"Okay, listen to Nian Nian."

It is indeed not appropriate to anger Shen Zhi now. After all, if she takes her anger out on Nian Nian, he really won't be able to protect the little guy.

Shen Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn't want to lie in bed and chat with a strange man this late at night.

The little guy fell asleep again soon. Shen Zhi was nervous and tired after a long day, so he also fell asleep.

Chu Changfeng didn't dare to fall asleep.

He was afraid that he would not be able to wake up after falling asleep.

The next morning, Shen Zhi got up quietly, turned his head slightly, and met a pair of dark eyes.

The man's eyes were a bit like peach blossom eyes. Although his thin cheeks were sunken and his face was pale, he had such a pair of affectionate eyes. Even though he had long lost his appearance, Shen Zhi could still see some handsomeness in him.

However, at this moment, these beautiful eyes were filled with a hint of disgust and patience.

After staring at each other for a long time, Chu Changfeng suddenly said, "Shen Zhi, I won't drag you down. If you like Zhou Zhou, you can take him wherever you want, but..."

He glanced at Chu Jinnian, who was sleeping like a pig with his mouth slightly open in his arms, and continued: "You have to let Nian Nian stay with his grandparents."

Shen Zhi stared at him for a while, and suddenly said: "You won't die, I bought you some medicine yesterday, you will get better."

Chu Changfeng frowned and looked at her defensively.

"I've asked the doctor, you're only temporarily paralyzed. If you take the medicine well, you'll have a chance to recover. After you recover, you can go up the mountain every day to hunt for me and earn money."

Shen Zhi's voice was flat, "If you die, everyone will say that I killed you. You want to ruin my reputation? No way!"

After that, she climbed off him, to the bed, and quickly went out.

Chu Changfeng looked at her back, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a sarcastic smile.

Sure enough, everything she did had a purpose.

But how could he still stand up?

She is such a fool.

Chu Changfeng pursed his lips. If it was as she said, then he must have woken up because of the medicine he took.

Does that mean he can't die yet?

Well... at least it can guarantee that Niannian won't be sold before my parents come back.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After washing her face and brushing her teeth, Shen Zhi stood in the yard. All she could think of was the look of Chu Changfeng when he spoke to her. In addition to disgust, there was also a hint of pleading in his eyes.

In his memory, every time he spoke to the original owner, he was always cold and even when he fell into the mud, he didn't speak in a humble manner like he did just now.

Maybe for him, the only person he cares about is Chu Jinnian.
