Shen Shuyu had to go to work the next day after she came back. Li Caixia knew that her niece had to take her children to school.

She was idle and had nothing to do here, so she offered to help take care of Xiaoze.

Shen Shuyu wanted to say that she brought him here, but Li Caixia just took Xiaoze into her arms.

"You have to carry Xiaoze on your back during class. It's so tiring. Second aunt doesn't have much to do, so I'll take care of Xiaoze. You can come and pick him up after get off work."

At home, Li Caixia often hugged Xiaoze, and Xiaoze also became close to Li Caixia, the second aunt, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, second aunt."

"Kid, we're all family, why are you saying that? Just focus on your studies. Xiaoze has me."

When Gu Jiandong is not at home, Li Caixia will cook for Shen Shuyu. Shen Shuyu brings her own food and vegetables, and she eats whatever Li Caixia cooks.

Li Caixia came here to take care of her pregnant daughter. Her son-in-law is usually busy, so she cooks whatever is available at home and eats meat basically once every two days.

If this happened in Shenjiaba Brigade, Li Caixia would definitely not dare to be so lax in her life.

But this is my daughter and son-in-law's home. They all have jobs and have enough food. My daughter and son-in-law usually have good food.

Now that the two old people are here, she can't be so stingy and reluctant to cook this or that. She just has to cook whatever the children want to eat.

Li Caixia is used to being frugal in her life, and she feels a pang of pain every time she adds oil.

She thought she had added enough oil, but when her daughter tasted the dish, she said there wasn't enough oil and it wasn't tasty, so she asked her to add more oil.

When it came to adding oil, she simply asked her man to pour the oil. Uncle Shen poured the oil just right.

Not too much, not too little, just enough oil and water, and the dishes cooked are fragrant.

Shen Qiu and Shen Shuyu had meals as soon as they got home from work. The two sisters praised Li Caixia, making her smile.

Uncle Shen and Li Caixia brought over a lot of eggs and cooked them for Shen Qiu, Jiang Ziqiang, and Shen Shuyu in the morning.

The steamed egg custard was for Xiaoze, and the eggs were consumed quickly. Li Caixia was thinking of going out to buy more eggs.

Shen Shuyu directly brought over a basket of eggs, "Second Aunt, no need to go out and buy them, I have them, these are all prepared for Xiaoqiu."

There are at least fifty or sixty eggs in Shen Shuyu's basket, enough to last for a while.

"Shu Yu, why do you have so many eggs?"

"I raised three old hens and saved them." The chickens raised by Shen Shuyu were fed with spring water and could lay six or ten eggs a day. It would take some time to save up all the eggs in this basket.

Li Caixia has been staying at her daughter's house since she came to the army, and she didn't notice that her eldest niece next door also raised chickens.

"Oh, this egg is really big. Shu Yu is really good at raising chickens. The eggs she lays are so good.

You can't take so many eggs for free. Second Aunt will have to give you the money later."

The eggs were not cheap, and Li Caixia didn't intend to take them for free. They were happy that their niece had this intention, so they returned the money.

Shen Shuyu didn't tell her second aunt about the money. These eggs were originally saved for Xiaoqiu, and she wouldn't take the money.

"Second Aunt, there are a lot of vegetables in my yard. You can pick whatever you want to eat."

Shen Qiu also grows vegetables in his yard, but there are few varieties, and now there are only a few cabbages.

"Second aunt won't be polite to you."

Jiandong returned from his mission half a month later. When he entered the house, Shen Shuyu smelled blood.

Shen Shuyu pulled the man into the house and stripped off his clothes. His chest and back were wrapped in a thick layer of gauze. Shen Shuyu's nose felt sore. She wanted to reach out and touch it but was afraid of hurting his wound.

Shen Shuyu didn't ask how he got hurt. She poured him a glass of water and asked him to drink it. "Gu Jiandong, when did the doctor say to change the dressing?"

Gu Jiandong knew that he was injured and Shu Yu would definitely feel distressed. He was still thinking about how to explain to Shu Yu when Shu Yu pulled him into the house to look at his wound. Seeing the mist in her eyes,

Gu Jiandong's heart ached, and he quickly said, "Shu Yu, don't cry. I have thick skin and it doesn't hurt at all. These are just minor injuries. They will heal in a few days."
