Chen Lang turned his head and breathed a sigh of relief, driving away the unrealistic thoughts in his mind.

Right now, my relationship with Li Xiuzhi has only just begun to mend to the point where we can hold hands. I want Li Xiuzhi to sit on me...

All we can say is that there is a long way to go.

What's more, with only one room, one bed and a little kid, it's too difficult to do the things that couples love to do.

Chen Erlang stopped touching Li Xiuzhi when Guoguo was about two years old. He vented all his energy on the girls in brothels.

Why? Because Li Xiuzhi, who had been working hard for many years, had changed from the beautiful girl she had just entered the industry to a skinny, dark-skinned old lady. She was completely unable to compare with the plump, soft, and fragrant girls in the brothel.

However, Li Xiuzhi's weight, in the time and space that Chen Lang traveled through, was the ultimate goal pursued by countless top female stars.

With a height of just over 1.6 meters and a weight of over 80 kilograms, those female celebrities before the time travel were desperately pursuing such a body and weight ratio.

But in Chen Lang's opinion, this body-to-weight ratio is extremely unbalanced and unhealthy!

So the next goal is to make Li Xiuzhi fatter first. Her weight must at least exceed 100 kilograms, which is considered a normal weight.

As for skin color, Li Xiuzhi's skin color was also white when she first got married, but due to the wind and sun over the years, her skin color has turned yellow and dark. As long as she takes good care of herself, it will recover sooner or later.

Chen Lang carefully climbed onto the bed. Seeing Guoguo staring at him with her watery eyes and grinning, he couldn't help but tap her little nose and said, "Do you want to sleep with Daddy?"

Guoguo nodded repeatedly: "I want to!"

"But daddy snores." Chen Lang said.

Guoguo immediately covered her ears and said, "I can't hear anything if I cover my ears."

Chen Lang jokingly said, "You've been covering your ears all night. What if your arms get sore?"

Guoguo thought about it and realized that his arms would indeed be very sore, so he changed his method and hid his head under the pillow. He said in a muffled voice, "I can't hear you this way either."

Li Xiuzhi was afraid that the child would feel bored, so she carefully pulled her head out from under the pillow and said, "Okay, Daddy was just joking with you, go to sleep."

Guoguo exhaled and laughed foolishly: "It's a bit depressing."

Children fall asleep very quickly. Before Chen Lang could react, Guoguo had already fallen asleep.

No wonder many people with insomnia like to watch children sleep. The speed at which they fall asleep is simply enviable.

After Guoguo fell asleep, Chen Lang took out the remaining change from his waistband and gave it all to Li Xiuzhi.

"Today's harvest." Chen Lang said.

Li Xiuzhi saw the money, but she wasn't too happy. Instead, she looked worried: "Did you go catching snakes again?"

Chen Lang shook his head: "No, I caught a turtle and sold it for a few coins."

"Turtle?" Li Xiuzhi was stunned.

Chen Lang briefly talked about selling turtles today.

"I'm lucky. There happened to be a customer at the restaurant who wanted to eat Farewell My Concubine. That's why I was able to sell this turtle at such a high price. If it were any other time, it definitely wouldn't be worth this much."

Li Xiuzhi blinked. "Farewell My Concubine...what is that?"

"It's turtle stewed with chicken. Next time I get another turtle, we can cook it too."

"This dish is actually not difficult. You just put all the ingredients into a clay pot and stew them. The key is the timing of the heat."

"Let me tell you, people nowadays have a huge misunderstanding about stews. First of all, stews are very particular about..."

Chen Lang suddenly became interested and started to talk about his cooking experience in his previous life. However, he didn't know that these cooking experiences caused a critical blow to Li Xiuzhi's heart!

Is this still the Chen Erlang who was too lazy to even fix a fallen oil bottle?

Is this still the Chen Erlang who always says "A gentleman should stay away from the kitchen"?

It is true that cooking is not a strange thing for a rural man. After all, boys in the countryside have to help with housework since they are young. Cooking and washing clothes are seemingly the work done by women, but boys cannot escape from it and have to do it.

But being able to do something and being proficient at it are two different things!

If what Chen Lang just said about the theory of "stew" is true, it means that he not only knows how to cook, but is even proficient in cooking, even better than himself who has been busy in the kitchen all year round.

Li Xiuzhi had always had some doubts about Chen Lang's identity, and now she was even more certain that the man in front of her was not her former man.

Could it be that he is possessed by a monster from the Fuyang River?

After all, Chen Erlang's change started when he went to the river to fish and catch shrimp.

Chen Erlang talked excitedly for a long time, but found that Li Xiuzhi didn't react at all. She looked like she was daydreaming. He closed his mouth awkwardly and said, "Did I disturb your rest?"

Li Xiuzhi looked at Chen Lang and said silently in her heart: "If you really are the monster in Fuyang River, I hope you will leave later."

Seeing Li Xiuzhi staring at him, Chen Lang subconsciously touched his face and asked, "Is there something dirty on my face?"

Li Xiuzhi smiled gently: "No, you are tired after a day, so stop talking and take a rest."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Lang yawned loudly and said, "Then I'll go to sleep first."

After a while, Chen Lang began to snore.

Li Xiuzhi turned sideways and continued to stare at Chen Lang.

As she watched, she couldn't help but touch Chen Lang's nose with her finger.

Chen Lang felt itchy and reached out to scratch his nose.

Li Xiuzhi quickly withdrew her hand and stuck out her tongue mischievously like a young girl.

This kind of ambiguous interaction between husband and wife has not happened between the two of them for a long time.

Perhaps thinking that Chen Lang was possessed by a demon, Li Xiuzhi couldn't help but want to touch him.

"Daddy, don't hit me... don't hit me..."

Guoguo suddenly shouted twice while she was sleeping, and her little hands were still raised and waving in the air. Seeing this, Li Xiuzhi hurriedly hugged her daughter in her arms and comforted her in a low voice.

When she is awake, Guoguo has already accepted Chen Lang, but when she falls asleep, Guoguo still dreams of the dark times when Chen Lang attacked her.

Li Xiuzhi patted Guoguo's back and murmured, "Go to sleep, go to sleep."

"Daddy won't beat you anymore. Things will get better."

These words seemed to be spoken to Guoguo, but also seemed to be spoken to himself.

……

Chen Lang had a sweet dream all night.

In the dream, he was holding a 7-meter carbon rod, using the latest bait, making a heavy nest of dozens of kilograms of corn, and then started to load the bait with a click.

A five-jin carp, a seven-jin snakehead fish, a ten-jin turtle...

At the end of the day, hundreds of kilograms of fish were caught.

When he arrived in the county town, he was not in a hurry to sell his fish. Instead, he hired an ox-drawn cart and drove around the county streets, enjoying the envious gazes of the city residents. At the same time, the owners of several restaurants followed the ox cart with their money bags, wanting to buy his catch.

Just when Chen Lang was about to make a fortune, a woman walked up to him angrily, pointed at his nose and scolded him: "You lecher, why are you here again!"

Before Chen Lang could see the woman's face clearly, he was suddenly hit in the stomach and woke up suddenly.
