Coming to the Xu family to recuperate is indeed a wise choice.

It is really obvious whether he cares or not.

Zheng had her people tidy up Xu Shuhe's boudoir early in the morning, waiting for the couple to come.

The warming and nourishing medicinal materials and dietary arrangements have already been carefully and meticulously arranged.

Taking Chen Zhi's injuries into consideration, he ordered people to put thick and soft cushions on the chair when they were talking in the hall so that Chen Zhi could sit down properly.

"Thank you, mother-in-law, for arranging these things." Chen Zhi was really touched.

Since he was injured, his biological father has never cared about him like this. Instead, his mother-in-law, Zheng, has been considerate and attentive to him like his own mother.

"Silly child, why are you saying all this? As a mother, I'm happy that you and Shuhe are doing well. Now that we have finally gotten through this storm, you just need to take good care of your injuries. Shuhe has also been very busy during this period, so you should also take a good rest. Don't worry about the rest. I'll take care of everything."

Zheng spoke softly, her eyes filled with heartache as she looked at Xu Shuhe.

Naturally, she loves her daughter more than her son-in-law.

"Mom, don't worry too much. Now we all live under your watchful eyes, nothing will happen. I will listen to you and take good care of myself. Even if you don't tell me, I've been busy these days and I want to take a break."

Xu Shuhe acted like a little girl, holding Zheng's arm and moving closer.

Zheng smiled and said, "Girl, don't just rest for yourself. Your husband's health needs to be taken care of."

"Okay, okay, I promise to give you a lively son-in-law!" Xu Shuhe joked deliberately.

With her livening up the atmosphere, everyone present finally smiled.

After lunch, Chen Zhi very considerately said that he would go to rest first, leaving space for the mother and daughter to talk privately.

Zheng did have a lot of questions to ask.

Originally, when Chen Zhigang was rescued, she wanted to visit him at home, but was stopped by Xu Shuhe. She also knew about the Chen family's split in the past few days, and now she was busy asking about the details.

After hearing this, she became angry. "I never thought that Chen Huaiqian was so shameless. I was also deceived by his face-saving skills in the past. Fortunately, my son-in-law is a man who knows what he is doing. Otherwise, you would have suffered so much if you married into such a family!"

When he said this, his eyes turned red.

"If your father were still alive, they wouldn't dare bully you like this. This marriage was arranged by your foolish father. Really..."

Seeing Zheng was sad, Xu Shuhe hurried to comfort her.

"Why are you crying? Isn't my daughter fine now? You also said that the Chen family is not good, but your son-in-law is not bad. As the saying goes, when a woman gets married, she will choose a man, while those who are not good at choosing will only look at the family property. Didn't we choose the right person? Now that the family is separated, we will not have anything to do with that side. My daughter will be the master of the family in the future, so she must live happily!"

"Girl, I don't know who you inherited this mouth from. You only know how to flatter people." Zheng laughed, but she felt a lot better.

After that, she took Xu Shuhe's hand and said, "Mother still has a few words to tell you. Now that you two have set up your own house, it's still a little lonely for the two of you. When your son-in-law recovers, you should have a child as soon as possible. It's so nice to have a child at home. If you don't want to take care of the child, just leave it to me. I'm usually very free, so it's just right for me to take care of your baby."

"Mom, why do you keep talking about this?" Xu Shuhe said helplessly, "This kind of thing depends on God's will."

To give birth, to refuse.

Zheng raised her hand and poked her forehead. "It's all up to God. Human factors are also very important. During this time, your son-in-law should take care of his body. You should also take care of yourself. With a child, you and your wife will be more complete."

Given the current environment, Xu Shuhe naturally had no way of instilling any DINK ideas into Zheng, so he could only nod and agree to her wishes.

He sat here with Zheng for a full hour before returning to his own courtyard.

Chen Zhi's injuries have recovered a lot in the past few days.

It’s good to be young.

When Xu Shuhe came back, he saw him standing in the room looking at the account book.

"Why don't you take a rest?" Xu Shuhe asked while warming his hands on the stove.

For some reason, this year the weather hasn't warmed up after the Chinese New Year, and it seems like there's going to be a late spring cold snap.

Hearing her voice, Chen Zhi turned around and said, "The things that were distributed have not been sorted out yet. I have nothing to do anyway, so I'll take a look."

This refers to what is obtained through division of the property.

Shops, farms, cash and the like.

"What do you think?" Xu Shuhe asked, "I have never studied these things in detail. You have been taking care of these for the family in the past, so you must know more about them."

When she asked, Chen Zhi sneered, "It looks like one-third of the family fortune, but there aren't many good things left for me."

"It's something we could have expected. We don't ask for too much. After all, it's better to divide the family. Most of the things my father-in-law kept are for the fourth brother, but I don't know how the second brother will make a fuss." Xu Shuhe felt calm.

What they have got now is already pretty good, and their main purpose is not to divide the money, but to divide the family.

Chen Zhi put the account book down and said, "We said that before we left. For the sake of the fourth brother's smooth future life, I'm afraid the second brother will be kicked out when he is released from prison."

"In this case, father-in-law will have to live with the fourth son." Xu Shuhe nuaned his hands and walked to the coffee table and sat down.

He picked up an orange and started playing with it, as if he wanted to peel it and taste it, but didn't want to get his hands dirty.

Xinyue was watching and was about to go over to serve, when she saw Chen Zhi pick up an orange from the plate and begin to peel it, so she stopped again and quietly stepped aside to observe first.

Sure enough, while Chen Zhi was speaking, he handed the peeled orange in his hand to Xu Shuhe.

"The fourth one is promising, so he naturally wants to follow him."

"So what do you think? What are you going to do next?" Xu Shuhe didn't think much about it. He took the orange, broke it in half out of habit and handed it to Chen Zhi, then ate the other half himself.

Sharing is actually a very common habit that we have developed over the years.

But this behavior is different nowadays. Sharing the same thing is a very intimate thing.

Chen Zhi was holding half an orange in his hand, a little dazed. Seeing Xu Shuhe's indifferent look, he suddenly felt that he, a grown man, was too pretentious. Isn't this normal between husband and wife?

So he pretended to be calm, stuffed a slice of orange into his mouth, and said while eating, "I was planning to go to Kyoto to develop my career. Now I still want to go, but I have to contact them first to know whether I can go or not."

That refers to the Fifth Prince. He is currently working for the Fifth Prince in Qizhou City. If he wants to move around, he naturally has to get permission first.

"Hmm, this orange is a bit sour." Xu Shuhe chatted casually and frowned.

When I looked up, I saw that Chen Zhi had already eaten the third clove. I couldn't help but be curious, "Don't you think it tastes sour?"

"Hmm? Not sour." Chen Zhiwei was stunned. "It tastes good, and a little sweet."

Well, people’s acceptance levels are indeed different, Xu Shuhe said silently in his heart.

So, in line with the principle of not wasting anything, he handed over the half he hadn't eaten, "You eat it then."

Chen Zhi looked at her and took it silently.

"Why is your face red? Do you have a fever again?" Xu Shuhe noticed his change and asked immediately.

"No, no." Chen Zhi seemed unnatural. "Maybe it's because it's warm in the room, and it got red after staying there for too long."
