Siheyuan: I just want to live

After Chen Feng returned home, he did not go out again. After all, there was a "Qin Gate God" guarding the gate of the courtyard. Chen Feng did not want to cause trouble, so he did not go out.

After reading for a while at home, Chen Feng went into the kitchen to prepare dinner. He washed and prepared the vegetables slowly, and at around six o'clock, he finally finished preparing dinner.

After serving the steamed buns and dishes to the table, Chen Feng went upstairs and called Jin Ling to come down to eat.

And the two children were awake at this time. Seeing the two awake children, Chen Feng suddenly felt a headache.

The two children are awake now, so will they still be able to fall asleep after dinner? If they can't fall asleep, then Chen Feng will have to suffer tonight.

Forget it, forget it for now, let’s eat first! Let’s eat, take one step at a time, and slowly coax them to sleep!

Soon, the family sat down at the dining table and started eating.

After finishing the meal, Chen Feng said to Jin Ming, "Jin Ming! I have put the clothes that your aunt gave you at the head of your bed."

"But there is one thing I want to tell you! As for this military coat, don't wear it everywhere to show off when you have nothing to do."

"You know, there are a lot of young people who love this stuff now! It would be bad if someone snatched it away after you wore it out."

"So! You should try not to wear it, got it?"

After hearing what Chen Feng said, Jin Ming nodded and said, "I understand, brother-in-law! I'll listen to you and not wear it out to show off!"

Chen Feng listened to Jin Ming's words, nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Okay, go back to sleep!"

There was a hint of laziness in his voice, but his eyes revealed his recognition and approval of Jin Ming.

When Jin Ming heard Chen Feng say this, he smiled and responded, "Okay, then I'll go to bed first. I have to get up early tomorrow."

After saying that, he waved to Chen Feng, turned and left the main room, walking briskly towards his room.

After Jin Ming left, Chen Feng picked up the two children and went up to the second floor carefully. He moved carefully, fearing that if he walked too fast, he would fall and hurt the children.

After arriving at the bedroom, Chen Feng played with the two children for a while. The children's innocent smiles made him feel extremely happy, and his fatigue gradually dissipated.

At this moment, Jin Ling walked into the bedroom. She gently took the two children, gently stroked their little faces, and then carefully washed their hands and feet.

Then, she put the two children into the warm bed and covered them with the quilt. Seeing the children get into bed, Jin Ling's face was filled with the radiance of maternal love.

Chen Feng finally had some free time. He quickly washed up and prepared to fall asleep.

But Xing Xing, who was standing next to him, suddenly said to Chen Feng in a baby voice, "Dad, can you tell me a story?"

Chen Feng listened to him and asked with a smile, "Xingxing? Why do you suddenly want to listen to a story today?"

Before Xingxing could answer after Chen Feng asked, Xixi answered first, "Dad! Dad, I know! I know! Grandma said that she used to tell stories to the uncles!"

After hearing this, Chen Feng smiled dumbly and said, "Okay! Then Dad will tell you a story today!"

After hearing what Chen Feng said, the two children stared at him with wide eyes. Chen Feng thought for a moment, then said, "I'm going to start talking!"

At this time, Jin Ling was also attracted by what Chen Feng and the children were saying. She also lay on her side and looked at Chen Feng, waiting for Chen Feng to start telling a story.

"Once upon a time there was a mountain, and in the mountain there was a temple. In the temple an old monk was telling a story to a young monk. The story was, once upon a time there was a mountain, and in the mountain there was a temple, and in the temple..."

Then Chen Feng said this several times, and the two children finally realized that they had been deceived by their father.

So, the two children began to twist and turn wildly in the quilt and cry.

Jin Ling originally thought that Chen Feng would tell a story, but unexpectedly, Chen Feng just repeated the same few words over and over again.

When Chen Feng said it for the third time, Jin Ling had already reacted, but seeing that the two children were still listening attentively, he did not point it out to Chen Feng.

But now seeing that he was still crying, Jin Ling reached out and pinched Chen Feng fiercely. Then she glared at Chen Feng fiercely.

That look seemed to say, "Look at the story you told, you made the children cry!"

Chen Feng looked at Jin Ling's eyes and gave her a helpless expression. Jin Ling looked at the expression Chen Feng made to her, rolled her eyes at him again, and then turned to comfort the children.

"Okay, honey! Daddy can't tell you stories, how about letting mommy tell you?"

When the two children heard Jin Ling's words, they looked up at her with their big watery eyes, waiting expectantly for her to tell them a story. There were still crystal tears on their little faces, but they were no longer crying.

Seeing the two children stop crying, Jin Ling breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. She cleared her throat and said gently, "Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Wang Erxiao..."

As Jin Ling told the story, the children's attention was gradually drawn to it. They opened their eyes wide and listened carefully to every word. Jin Ling's voice was soft and emotional, bringing the plot of the story to life in front of the children.

That night, Jin Ling told the two children three stories before they fell asleep. Seeing the children sleeping peacefully, Jin Ling breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved.

However, Chen Feng was puzzled by the stories Jin Ling told. He found that Jin Ling told stories about the revolutionary period, which puzzled him. He couldn't help asking Jin Ling why she chose these stories.

Jin Ling smiled and explained, "I think these stories can help children understand history and cultivate their patriotism and bravery. Besides, aren't these stories good?"

Chen Feng suddenly realized Jin Ling's good intentions after hearing these stories. It turned out that Jin Ling hoped to convey positive energy through these stories and guide children to establish correct values.

After the children fell asleep, Chen Feng turned on the light and went to bed.

The next day, Chen Feng and his family went to Li Guotao's place. After eating at Li Guotao's house, Chen Feng and Jin Ling returned to the courtyard early.

Originally, Li Guotao wanted to keep Chen Feng for a while longer, but was rejected by Chen Feng.

After returning to the courtyard, Chen Feng saw a few middle-aged women working and chatting in front of the door of the courtyard next door, so Chen Feng pushed his bicycle into the back of the main room.

I immediately grabbed a handful of melon seeds, then ran to the next door, found a seat by the side, sat down, and listened to these aunties gossiping.

As the aunties were chatting, another auntie stopped pressing the soles of her shoes and said something mysteriously in a low voice.

"Hey, have you heard? That idiot from the courtyard went on a blind date yesterday! I heard the girl was from the countryside, and even if she was a girl from the countryside, she didn't like idiot!"

As soon as the auntie finished speaking, another auntie who was picking vegetables nearby immediately said, "I heard about it! How could I not have heard of it!"

"Besides! I also heard that the country girl is Qin Huairu's cousin! I don't know what Qin Huairu was thinking, to introduce her cousin to a guy like Sha Zhu!"

After hearing what the old lady said, a younger woman said, "Hey, why did I hear from their former uncle that Shazhu is a nice person?"

When the old lady heard what the woman said, she immediately curled her lips and said, "Their uncle is a dead end, and now he is relying on Shazhu to support him in his old age!"

"Of course I praise Shazhu to everyone I meet! So you can't believe what he says!"

When the woman heard what the aunt said, she still hesitated and asked, "Really?"

Seeing that the woman didn't believe him, the aunt hurriedly said to her, "You just moved here not long ago, don't let the old man in their yard fool you!"

"Let me tell you! Shazhu is a rather rude person, and he likes to pick fights!"

"But he has also molested other women, and now he is involved with the widow Qin Huairu! How can he be a good person?"

The woman felt as if the sky was falling when she heard this, and she said in a tearful voice, "I promised that old man that I would introduce my niece to Sha Zhu!"

"I started to hear what you said. If I introduce him to someone, and he falls for me and my niece is deceived, and he finds out the truth after we get married, his aunt will blame me to death!"

When the aunt heard what the woman said, her eyes lit up and she immediately said, "It's okay, you can introduce your niece to other people first!"

"When the time comes, if the old man in their courtyard asks you, just say that she's already dating someone else. That way, the old man won't have anything to say!"

Suddenly, the old lady changed the subject and said to the woman, "Girl! My nephew has a son who is just 20 years old this year. He is also a regular worker in the steel mill and is now a third-level fitter."

"He doesn't have a partner yet. How about this, you introduce your niece to him and we can become relatives?"

The old lady had just finished speaking, and before the woman could say anything, the other doormen had already started scolding the old lady.

"You are such a good thing, old lady Liu! Do you want to keep this good thing for yourself? My eldest brother and two grandsons are not married yet! And they are all formal workers in the factory!" said an old lady angrily.

Another auntie was not to be outdone: "I have a nephew..."

Then another middle-aged woman chimed in: "Hey! You're talking like everyone has younger generations. I..."

Chen Feng just watched as the style of the group of aunties became more and more deviant, and finally it turned into a large-scale blind date scene.

Everyone was talking about the unmarried younger generations in their families, and their faces were red with anger.

However, Shazhu's name was not mentioned in this chaotic discussion.

It turned out that this group of aunties were only concerned with introducing potential partners to their relatives and completely forgot about the gossip about Sha Zhu that had just been mentioned.

Poor Sha Zhu was ruthlessly thrown into the sky. Apparently, Sha Zhu’s gossip was not as important as the life events of his younger generations.
