Chapter 064.
Serving Huai Ming took advantage of this topic to say, “At noon, I went to work with Liu Zhi, Liu Zhi happened to mention to me that he asked if our family could cook more for one person in the future, and that he would pay for the food, do you think it’s a good idea?”
Even if Liu Zhi didn’t mention it, Zhen Zhen was still planning to help Shizuku nourish her body.
Since Liu Zhi also brought it up, that’s just right, Zhen Zhen decisively responded, “Of course it’s okay.”
***
Shizuku’s house.
Liu Zhi sat down at the dining table and picked up chopsticks.
Seeing the insulated lunch box on the table, he looked at Wen and asked, “What’s this?”
Wen put on Doudou’s bib, sat down and said, “Sister Zhen Zhen made this, seaweed, winter melon and rib soup.”
Liu Zhi naturally knew that this was a good thing to nourish the body, and reached out to open the lunch box, sending it in front of Ah Wen, saying, “She worked hard to make this, so eat it all.”
Smelling the aroma of the rib soup, Wen did not say that she did not want to eat it.
Doudou was also craving for more, so Wen took a spoon and scooped up a piece of pork chop soup, ready to give it to Doudou.
But as soon as she brought the ribs to Doudou, Liu Zhi reached out and took them.
Liu Zhi returned the spoon to her and said, “There are only a few pieces of ribs in total, so you can eat them yourself. If Doudou wants to eat ribs, she can go to the cafeteria tomorrow and get them back.”
After saying this, he looked at Doudou and said, “This is mommy’s rice, let mommy eat it alone, okay?”
Doudou obediently nodded her head and said, “Okay dad.”
Seeing Liu Zhi say this, Ah Wen didn’t share the rib soup anymore.
She took the spoon and ate it herself, pouring out all the pork chop soup in the lunch box, and then took a bite of pork chop, a bite of winter melon, a bite of seaweed and a bite of soup, and soon finished the pork chop soup.
After eating, I felt as if I had opened my stomach, and I ate a lot of food from the cafeteria.
Wen ate a lot of food at lunch and at night, and Liu Zhi felt a little more at ease when he saw her eating like this.
If she could eat like this every day, she wouldn’t be so emaciated and thin.
After finishing her meal, she went next door to find Shi Huai Ming.
Liu Zhi said thank you to Shui Huai Ming, and then added, “Your daughter-in-law’s cooking is really out of this world.”
Although he didn’t taste the evening’s rib soup, he knew it was delicious just by smelling it.
Serving Huai Ming was not modest and said, “My daughter-in-law excels in everything she does.”
Liu Zhi laughed a little and said in agreement, “Older brother, your life is really enviable, your daughter-in-law has a good character, good cooking skills, and your mother has a good relationship with you, and you have children, so you are really happy in every way.”
Serving Huai Ming looked at Liu Zhi, “There’s nothing wrong with your life, right?”
In the army position is not low, the daughter-in-law is a native city girl, know how to read and reason, character is also good, and there are two lovely daughters.
Liu Zhi’s voice is low, the tone sounds very relaxed, “Isn’t it still no son?”
Serving Huai Ming lagged slightly for a moment, then said, “You’ve only been married for a few years, what’s the hurry?”
Liu Zhi smiled and didn’t start the conversation further.
After standing and chatting with Servant Huai Ming for a few more sentences, they each went home.
***
When they returned home, Servant Huai Ming and Zhen Zhen took the children to play.
After putting the children to sleep, the two of them went to wash up and returned to the house to get ready for bed.
Zhen Zhen wasn’t too sleepy yet, so she took a book and sent it over to Shi Huai Ming, telling him, “Read me a couple pages.”
“Good.” Servant Huai Ming took the book with a raised tone, “After you finish telling Spike the bedtime story, then you can read it to Zhen Zhen.”
Zhen Zhen couldn’t help but laugh at that.
With some embarrassment in her smile, she raised her hand to slap Servant Huai Ming.
Servant Huai Ming caught her hand and put it down, opening the book.
Turning to the page with the bookmark, he brewed his emotions for a moment and read it to Zhen Zhen.
The light from the bulb above the bed shed a shallow, soft light.
Servant Huai Ming reads slowly, and time seems to slow down as well, painting a romantic and cozy picture in detail.

Wow–
Fine yellow sand was tipped out of the cart.
The sand landed in a small mountainous pile sitting next to a bag of cement and a pile of bricks.
“Isn’t this enough?” Jen asked, looking at the cement and sand and bricks from the side.
“Almost enough.” Squire Huai Ming put down the cart and took off his gloves.
“Let’s eat first.” It was already noon.
Servant Huai Ming went inside and changed into a clean shirt, washed his hands and sat down to eat.
As Zhen Zhen ate her meal, she asked again, “You’re really doing this by yourself?”
Servant Huai Ming nodded, “Well, it’s nothing difficult.”
He got these cement sand and bricks back to build a nest for Big White.
This was something he wouldn’t look for professional workers to come over and build, planning to do it himself and personally build a simple but sturdy enough brick wall nest for Big White.
Because there was only one day off, after dinner Squire Huai Ming didn’t take a break and immediately started building the dog’s nest.
Zhen Zhen also changed into a very worn and old dress, put on wearable gloves, and helped him in the yard.
Dan Sui looked amused and naturally came along to “help”.
Servant Huai Ming took a shovel and mixed sand and cement, then drew the ground and laid bricks, while Zhen Zhen helped pass the bricks around.
Dan Sui was much busier than the two of them. She took a small shovel and sand and cement, and then picked up half of the bricks with a red face and brought them to Shui Huai Ming, panting and saying, “Here you go, Dad!”
Zhen Zhen couldn’t help but laugh as she watched her work through a sweaty head.
She handed a whole brick to Shui Huaiming, looked at Dan Sui and asked, “Spike, are you tired?”
Dan Sui picked up the small broken shovel and began stirring the cement again, replying, “I’m not tired at all!”
After stirring for a while, she raised her eyes and suddenly saw Cheng Chen outside the courtyard.
Her impression of Cheng Chen was naturally very favorable, and she shouted at him, “Brother, come and play with me.”
Today, Doudou was not at home, and there was no one to play with her for such fun.
Having caused a lot of trouble before, Cheng Chen didn’t have the heart to come in.
When Zhen Zhen and Servant Huai Ming heard Dan Sui speak, they looked at the door together, and when they saw Cheng Chen standing outside and not coming in, Zhen Zhen greeted him with a warm voice: “Cheng Chen, come in and play.”
Cheng Chen heard Zhen Zhen’s words, and only then did he have the good sense to come in.
He came in and walked over to the red bricks, watched Shui Huaiming laying a brick wall, and asked curiously, “Auntie and uncle, what are you doing?”
Shi Huai Ming said, “Building a dog house.”
Dabai ran next to Cheng Chen, Cheng Chen reached out and touched Dabai’s head, “So your name is Dabai.”
Big White’s big tail wagged happily and rubbed his head against Cheng Chen twice.
Cheng Chen stroked Great White two more times, then went to play with Dan Sui.
At his age, it was natural for him and Dan Sui to not play, it was just him with a child.
He sat down in front of Dan Sui and took out two milk candies from his pocket and sent them to Dan Sui, “Brought you candies to eat.”
Thinking about what happened before, Dan Sui shook her head and said, “Can’t eat it, even though she wanted to eat it.”
Cheng Chen looked at her, “Why? This is milk candy, and it’s soft, it’s delicious.”
Dan Sui phrased it simply, “Dad said you can’t eat it.”
Zhen Zhen and Squire Huai Ming were both there, Cheng Chen didn’t have the heart to ask Dan Sui for more.
And just as he lowered his head to take the candy back into his pocket, he suddenly heard Zhen Zhen say, “Spike, eat it.”
Hearing this, Dan Sui and Cheng Chen both cheered up together.
Dan Sui took Cheng Chen’s candy and immediately took it to Zhen Zhen, “Mom.”
Zhen Zhen naturally knew what she meant and took off her gloves, smiling as she helped her peel off the candy paper.
Squeezing the candy with the sugar paper and bringing it to Dan Sui’s mouth, Dan Sui’s mouth was stuffed and bulging, and she happily went off to play again.
