Si Zhengyan wanted to get up and fetch some hot water, but Lu Chaoyan stopped him, "Let's go to the bathroom together."

"Okay." The tenderness in Si Zhengyan's eyes was so tender that it could exude honey.

He picked up the large bath towel, wrapped her in it, and carried her to the bathroom. The warm water from the shower fell, and the two of them lingered again in the rain and mist.

The bath took another two hours.

They returned to their west bedroom feeling refreshed. The three children were still asleep. The two smiled at each other, then lay down on their sides and fell asleep again.

I didn't get up until the three children woke up.

Lu Chaoyan went to the kitchen to cook, and Si Zhengyan washed the sheets in the east room.

I just couldn't suppress the smile on my face. I just wanted to laugh. My body also felt different from before. I felt full and comfortable.

It was as if overnight, all his previous injuries disappeared and he felt completely renewed.

Lu Chaoyan brought out breakfast from the kitchen at around nine o'clock. She looked up and saw the bed sheets drying on the balcony on the second floor. Her fair face was flushed red.

For breakfast, we had noodles with shredded pork, eggs, and braised beef slices, and each of the three children had a glass of milk.

Considering that Si Zhengyan, a grown man, might not be full, she made four extra egg pancakes and sprinkled ham and shrimp on them.

"Ayan, Ayan!"

When the five people were having a delicious meal, the door rang again.

Si Zhengyan's happy smile disappeared in an instant, and his fists creaked when he went to open the door.

"Qu Xiangbei, didn't we agree that I would have three days off?"

"Ayan, my mother made delicious food for lunch. I'm here to invite you to have dinner at my house, which is just in front, across the yard from yours."

Qu Xiangbei smiled sincerely.

Si Zhengyan turned back to the dining table and said, "No, I want to stay at home with my wife and children."

"Just going to have a meal."

Qu Xiangbei followed in and took in a glance at the food on the table. Although it wasn’t exquisite, it was very rich at least.

In the huge bowl of egg noodles, there were three golden fried eggs and sliced ​​braised beef, which looked to be more than half a pound in amount.

On the dining table, there was a plate of stir-fried green cabbage hearts, a plate of pickled bamboo shoots, and a dish of triangular-shaped egg pancakes, which made him drool just by looking at them.

It turned out that I had misunderstood last night. Lu Chaoyan still had some conscience and knew how to love a man.

Lu Chaoyan hated Qu Xiangnan and also disliked Qu Xiangbei, and her tone was full of annoyance.

"I have prepared lunch to reward my man, so I won't bother you."

Influenced by his family, Qu Xiangbei also had an inexplicable rejection of Lu Chaoyan.

"My mother went to the county town this morning to buy beef and pork legs. If you just get up now and rush to the county town, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see any pig hair."

"Qu Xiangbei, please be polite when you speak to my wife!"

Si Zhengyan stared at Qu Xiangbei with his cold peach blossom eyes, "My wife has already bought food and put it in the refrigerator. There is no need to buy it in advance. Please go and don't disturb us while we are having breakfast."

The three babies who were eating noodles obediently also raised their angry eyes and glared at Qu Xiangbei.

It’s so annoying. It disturbs the time we spend with dad.

Qu Xiangbei seemed to be blind to the rejection of the five members of the family. When he heard the word "refrigerator", he laughed excitedly.

"Let me see what kind of refrigerator you have, so I can buy one for my family."

He entered the living room and opened the refrigerator, where portions of meat were neatly arranged in glass boxes.

He opened his mouth in surprise. There were beef, lamb chops, dried shrimps, sea cucumbers, abalone, chopped chicken, duck and goose pieces, as well as chopped pork belly and bacon.

He didn't recognize the other meats, but they were all meat, filling up the entire refrigerator. If it were an ordinary family, it would be enough to last them for three years.

He walked out with a wry smile, "That refrigerator is great, I want one too."

Si Zhengyan was wiping the vegetable leaves from his precious daughter's mouth. Upon hearing this, he gave him a slanting look.

"Qu Xiangbei, if you dare to come to my house again and disturb my reunion with my wife and children, I will make you lie down for half a month!"

Qu Xiangbei was unhappy, "Si Zhengyan, you value women over friendship. We just came back from the battlefield, and now you're turning your back on us and don't want to be brothers anymore?"

Si Zhengyan raised his head and gave him a sneer, "If Jian Donghan hadn't died, would you have considered me a brother?"

When Jian Donghan was still there, there were very few people in the special operations regiment who would treat him as a brother.

These words made Qu Xiangbei's face turn red. He gritted his teeth and left.

As Lu Chaoyan closed the door, she added, "I thought Qu Xiangnan was pretty bad, but I didn't expect her brother to be no worse."

Si Zhengyan answered in the yard, "Don't be polite to them in the future, just chase them away when they come."

These words were like a sharp knife, stabbing Qu Xiangbei and making him feel extremely embarrassed.

Thinking back to the past, he regretted the time when he followed Jian Donghan to bully Si Zhengyan.

In the yard, a family of five happily finished their meal. Si Zhengyan held Lu Chaoyan's hand, with a strange emotion in his eyes.

"Wife, give Shi Haiyan three days off. I'll take care of the child."

"Okay, it just so happens that she hasn't been home for a long time."

Lu Chaoyan rode her bicycle to Yao Xue's place. Yu Qiaoying brought her son and was learning pinyin with the two of them.

When they saw her coming, they all had a sly smile on their faces.

Lu Chaoyan felt embarrassed by their laughter, "Stop looking at me, aren't you guys like that?"

"Sister-in-law, what are you like with Brother Zhengyan?"

Yao Xue was very curious whether other couples also asked the same question seriously as he and Xiao Ji.

"roll!"

Lu Chaoyan glared at her unhappily and took out a paper bag and gave it to Shi Haiyan, "Haiyan, your brother-in-law has three days off and he will take care of the child. You can stay at home for a few days and then go directly to my mother's place."

"Is Aunt Lu about to give birth?" Shi Haiyan asked excitedly.

"Well, I'll go over and take a look tomorrow. She's pregnant with twins, so they might go into labor early. Having one more person by her side will help her avoid emergencies that Aunt Hongying won't be able to handle on her own."

"Then I'll go back to see my mother and go directly to Aunt Lu's place."

Shi Haiyan ran upstairs and collected all the bedding and blankets that she and Lu Chaoyan had used and washed them.

Lu Chaoyan washed with her, and they were busy for half an hour, and finally cleaned the two rooms upstairs even cleaner than when they moved in.

Lu Chaoyan took out three hundred yuan and some tickets and handed them to Shi Haiyan.

"Use this money to buy something for your mother. Stay a few more days and don't rush back."

Shi Haiyan just asked for the ticket, "Sister, I still have a lot of money on me, I can't take any more, I'm leaving now."

"I'll take you to the county town on my bike and buy some food on the way."

Lu Chaoyan looked at Yu Qiaoying and Yao Xue again, "Do you want to eat anything? I'll bring it back for you."

Yu Qiaoying waved her hand, "No, we still have a lot of food that you gave us yesterday. We don't need it."

Yao Xue also shook her head, "I'm eating alone, so I don't want any vegetables."

"Okay, I'll bring you some fruit when I come back. Study hard, and let's go."

Lu Chaoyan waved her hand, took Shi Haiyan and her package, passed by the next door, and ran into Tie Jiawu who was going out.
