Thanos's biological daughter in period fiction

Shen Zhiyuan patted his wife's head reassuringly, feeling that she was just too idle and always worrying about things that didn't concern her.

You should know that no one in the entire Xia family, from top to bottom, dares to give his young wife a hard time. Xia's father especially dotes on his daughter, practically calling her his little ancestor.

Although I haven't met Xia's second sister-in-law yet, I've heard Xia's second brother mention her once before. Although he didn't go into details, I could tell from his tone that she was a nice girl. I felt that my wife's worries were unnecessary.

"Tangtang, go back to your room and rest for a while. We can talk about what to eat later when Mom and Dad get back." He still had to make sure his little wife was satisfied; he couldn't let her worry about him for nothing.

Xia Yutang didn't argue and obediently returned to his room. Once he lay down, no one called him until he woke up on his own the next morning, when it was just before dawn.

Xia Yutang looked at the sky outside, then at her watch, and pinched her hand in disbelief. It really hurt; that meant she had slept from just before 4 pm yesterday until 4:30 am. A full 12 and a half hours! Sitting somewhat dazed on the edge of the kang (heated brick bed), she couldn't believe it. She never imagined she could sleep for so long.

Without disturbing anyone else, he went straight back to his own space, took a shower, changed his clothes, and drank a glass of lemonade he made himself before starting to think about what to eat today.

We have guests today, so I'll definitely have to go out this morning. I wonder if Dad brought in any groceries yesterday?

First, she went to the warehouse in the space to rummage through the ingredients for today's banquet. She found a 50-year-old ginseng, cut off a few roots, caught a hen that she had raised for a year, and since eggplant dishes don't look very appealing, she decided to make eggplant fritters.

A plate of sweet and sour pork is a must, and I've also grabbed some ribbonfish to make a braised fish dish. Chicken stew with mushrooms is a famous Northeastern dish, so that's a must too. I'll also make a stir-fry of stir-fried potatoes, eggplant, and green peppers. There won't be many people tomorrow, so if we make a stewed goose in an iron pot, we won't be able to finish a whole one, so half will do. I'll also stir-fry some shredded potatoes and make a stew of cabbage, pork, and glass noodles, making a perfect eight dishes and one soup.

It's not practical to get fresh fish right now, as this place is a bit far from the sea. The ribbonfish dish she made before was also made with dried fish. This way, the whole banquet is complete.

After these things were sorted out, they were placed on the table, waiting for Dad to decide how to get rid of them. Over the years, apart from eating in the cafeteria, almost everything they ate and used was produced by the space.

After finishing, she drank a bowl of soy milk and ate two steamed buns, and then prepared breakfast for this morning.

When he came out again, it was already dawn. There were faint sounds coming from the living room. Xia Yutang knew that his father and the others had woken up. Looking at his mother who was still sleeping, Xia Yutang quietly changed his clothes, put on his shoes, and came out of the room.

"Grandpa Shen, Dad, Big Brother, Second Brother, A-Yuan, why are you all here so early?"

"Tangtang, why are you up so early? Are you hungry? You didn't get up to eat last night..." As soon as Shen Zhiyuan saw his wife come out, he quickly sidled up to her.

The young wife slept very soundly yesterday, so no one woke her up for dinner. Unexpectedly, she slept until the next day, and now Shen Zhiyuan is worried that she might be hungry.

"I'm hungry, I woke up because I was hungry. By the way, what are we having for breakfast? When is my future sister-in-law coming over? Or do we have to go out..." She suddenly remembered that this military camp didn't seem like a good place for blind dates, and besides, the future sister-in-law wasn't really her yet, so it probably wouldn't be appropriate for her to just walk into the family compound.

"Okay, let's eat out. We're going to the state-run restaurant in town today. We've already made plans to eat there." Xia's father tidied his daughter's slightly messy hair, nodded, and said that they had made plans to eat out.

Xia Yutang thought about it and realized that all the preparations had been for nothing. Why hadn't she thought of this when she was preparing the things?

Xia Yutang knew what was wrong when he saw the expression on his daughter's face. After all, he had sensed what the little girl had been doing in the space that morning. He had been watching his daughter prepare the food and was quite happy, so he hadn't thought to remind her. Anyway, the food was prepared, and they could take it out whenever they wanted to eat.

"Okay, when are we going? Dad, are you guys going to morning training today?" It seems like Dad and the others don't eat during morning training; they eat after training.

“We’re going. We’ll take your Grandpa Shen out for a walk while we’re at it. You just stay inside and wait for your mother to wake up. Don’t make too much for breakfast; we’ll eat at the cafeteria later.” His wife was exhausted yesterday, so he needed her to rest. He and his sons had already decided to eat breakfast at the cafeteria.

This way, the wife doesn't have to get up too early, and she doesn't have to put in the effort to make breakfast for them.

“Okay…” Xia Yutang had no complaints. Since her father and the others weren’t eating here, she could take some things out of her spatial storage.

I can even go back to my space with my mother to eat, why not?

After seeing all the men in the house out, Xia Yutang returned to her bedroom. Seeing that her mother was still resting, she didn't disturb her and went straight back to her space.

We're going to a state-run restaurant for lunch, so we can't eat too much in the morning, otherwise we won't be able to eat lunch. The chefs at the state-run restaurant actually make pretty good food.

She was thinking of making some wontons so she could have chicken soup wontons with her mother when she woke up. But her mother, well, she didn't know what to say, slept until 10:30 and didn't wake up until 11:00 after she had finished getting ready.

I only drank one cup of soy milk before it was time to head to the state-run restaurant.

Because they had booked a time and a place in advance, they only needed to give a slip of paper to the staff sitting at the counter when they arrived, and then the staff led them to a private room.

The family was dressed formally because they were meeting the in-laws. Xia Yutang's outfit was not eye-catching; she wore a plain white shirt with some lace trim on the cuffs, paired with black overalls and a light-colored, thin knitted cardigan.

Her beautiful clothes are all handmade by her mother; you can't find the same styles anywhere else.

After the family sat down, they drank tea and waited. While they were drinking their second cup of tea, Brother Xia arrived with his wife and mother-in-law.

Xia Erge's mother-in-law gives off the impression of a teacher with a very artistic temperament at first glance. Xia Erge's girlfriend also seems to be the gentle and kind female teacher type.

Xia's parents had a very good impression of the mother and daughter. This was the first time the two families had met, and it was a formal meeting to discuss marriage matters.
