Accidentally entered a high gate

While mentally categorizing his second daughter-in-law as someone who needed to be closely watched, Ma Jingshan smiled at Zheng Chunfang. "When your mother-in-law gave birth to Lifeng, both she and I were very busy. Lifeng grew up at his older brothers' houses. His sisters-in-law treat Wanwan like their own granddaughter. You weren't scared, were you?"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Chunfang quickly replied, "No, no. Lifeng told me about his childhood, and when we were in the countryside, my second sister-in-law often sent us things. I know that my second sister-in-law wanted to let my second brother see the bowls as soon as possible because she likes them."

Ma Jingshan was relieved to see that she didn't mind at all. "Old Su, Lifeng and Wanwan probably won't be back tonight. After dinner, talk to Xiao Zheng about what's going on at your workplace."

Su Jingyu: "Okay."

Zheng Chunfang: "Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Dad."

Su Jingyu: "Why are you being so polite? If you marry Lifeng, you'll be like my daughter."

Ma Jingshan: "Focus on your work. Don't worry about the household chores. Your mother has been busy her whole life, and she won't be used to suddenly having nothing to do. We need to find something for her to do."

Su Jingyu: "Hahahaha... You're not worried about me not being used to it, you're just jealous of me, aren't you?"

"Just tell me if you're used to it or not?"

"I'm not used to it."

"That settles it then. Let's eat."

"You're just jealous of me."

"Let's eat."

……

The elderly couple bickered for a while before starting to eat.

Meanwhile, Ma Lifeng's second brother, Ma Lixing, returned home from get off work and, not seeing Shen Junyi, looked at his eldest daughter, second daughter, and second son, asking, "Did your mother go to the cafeteria to buy food?"

Ma Lixing's eldest daughter is named Ma Yanning, and she is 15 years old this year. His second daughter is named Ma Yanhe, and she is 12 years old this year. His second son is named Ma Yanxing, and he is 17 years old this year.

Ma Lixing's eldest son is named Ma Yanzhong, and he is 22 years old this year.

Ma Yanzhong joined the army after graduating from high school.

Ma Yanxing, Ma Yanning, and Ma Yanhe are still in school.

Upon hearing Ma Lixing's words, Ma Yanxing said, "We haven't seen my mother since we got back. She probably didn't go to the cafeteria to buy food, so she probably hasn't come back yet." Their school is closer to his mother's workplace, so they should be able to see her if she comes back.

"Should we cook ourselves, or eat at the cafeteria?"

Ma Yanxing: "Let's eat in the cafeteria."

Ma Yanning and Ma Yanhe: "Mhm."

"Let's go then. Bring one back for your mother on the way back."

"it is good."

The father and his four sons had just left with their money and lunchboxes when they saw Shen Junyi and Ma Lifeng pushing their bicycles in. Just as they were about to speak to Shen Junyi and Ma Lifeng, they saw Xiao Wanwan.

The four men, father and sons: "..." Is this the child that Yan Cheng and Han Jiang/elder brother and Brother Zhou were talking about? He's so handsome!

Ma Yancheng and Zhou Hanjiang have to return to the team today, so they came to see Ma Lixing and Shen Junyi last night.

Shen Junyi initially thought Ma Yancheng and Zhou Hanjiang said Wanwan was beautiful because Wanwan was their own child. It wasn't until her colleague also said Wanwan was exceptionally beautiful that she decided to go see just how beautiful Wanwan really was.

Ma Lifeng smiled at Ma Lixing. "Second Brother, I'm back. Second Brother, did you miss me? Yan Xing, Yan Ning, Yan He, did you miss me...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Ma Yanxing, Ma Yanning, and Ma Yanhe rushed over.

Ma Yanxing: "Mother, is this the bowl?"

Ma Yanning: "Wanwan, I'm your second cousin, can I hug you?"

Ma Yanhe: "I'm your fourth cousin, may I touch your face?"

Ma Lifeng: "..." He'd definitely fallen out of favor! Before, his nephews and nieces would always ask him if he was hungry, tired, or if he'd been bullied. Now...

Before he could finish thinking, he saw his second brother waving at him with a smile.

Ma Lifeng parked his bicycle and scurried over. "Second brother, you're the best to me. They completely forgot about me once they saw my daughter."

Ma Lixing put his arm around his shoulder and walked towards the study, laughing as he said, "You're a father now, but you're still like a child."

"Hehe... Second Brother, have you missed me?"

"I've thought about it."

Ma Lifeng was satisfied. "Second brother, you've lost weight. Do you often work overtime?"

Ma Lixing lost weight, not because of working overtime. "Let's talk in the study."

"it is good."

Upon arriving at the study, Ma Lifeng was about to ask if they had also been affected when he saw his second brother unbuckle his belt with a dark expression.

Ma Lifeng: "..." What was his second brother up to? "Second brother, are you planning to take me out for a big meal, so you took off your belt?"

Snapped!

As Ma Lixing swung his belt, he stared at Ma Lifeng and asked coldly, "Did you get married as soon as you arrived in the countryside because your wife is pretty? Don't you know that lust can be a dangerous thing?"

Ma Lifeng: "..." He thought only his second brother still cared about him, but it turned out his second brother suspected that he was blinded by lust. "Second brother, my wife is beautiful. But my wife's beauty is the normal kind, not like my daughter's. If my wife looked like my daughter, how could I have waited to marry her? She would have been tricked away by someone with ulterior motives long ago."

Ma Lixing thought about it and agreed. "Is your wife really not as pretty as your daughter?"

"No, not at all. Just looking at our appearances, the three of us standing together are like a bad bamboo and a good bamboo shoot. My wife and I are the bad bamboo, and my daughter is the good bamboo shoot."

"Second brother, with your experience and intelligence, you should be able to figure out that if my wife looked like my daughter, she wouldn't have stayed in the village until she was eighteen, right?"

"Second brother, aren't you just worried and making a mistake?"
