The dough is chewy and smooth, and the fillings are even more amazing. Whether it's vegetarian or meat filling, they are all firm and juicy. One bite and your mouth is filled with a rich aroma.

It warms you up and makes your stomach feel so good that you want to swallow your tongue too.

And the more you eat, the more delicious it becomes; you simply can't stop.

Let alone people who love dumplings, even Cheng Qingshan, who doesn't eat dumplings, ate them happily one after another.

With Su Lang taking care of her daughter's meals, Lin Zhilan quickly finished eating.

She then mixed some shredded radish and braised pig's ears from the things she had brought and put them on the dining table.

Cheng Qingshan had an unusually good appetite today.

One bite of dumpling, one sip of soup, and occasionally a few bits of shredded radish and pig's ear mixed in with chopsticks.

He clicked his tongue and turned around to look for something on the cabinet in the living room.

"What do you need? I'll get it for you."

Cheng Qingshan pointed to the cabinet below and said, "Could you check if there's a bottle of Wuliangye liquor in there?"

"You still want to drink?" Lin Zhilan raised her voice.

"I didn't drink it, I didn't drink it." Cheng Qingshan did have that thought, but this time he didn't dare to say it.

He looked at Su Lang and Tu Jing, "You two should have some, right? This is one of my treasured wines."

Su Lang: "I don't drink."

Tu Jing: "Me too."

Cheng Qingshan: "..."

Those two brats have no sense of propriety at all!

Lin Zhilan said seriously, "Your liver is just starting to recover, and your gallbladder is gone too. You're not allowed to drink alcohol anymore!"

"I haven't drunk any alcohol, have I?" Cheng Qingshan answered readily, and fearing she wouldn't believe him, he added, "I haven't drunk any alcohol since I came back from the island."

"That's right!"

Lin Zhilan asked, "How much wine is left at home?"

"Not many... just a few bottles." Cheng Qingshan observed her expression.

Not only did Sister Li and Tu Jing not expect it, but the old man also did not expect that he would one day be so obedient and cautious to others.

"Take it to me." Lin Zhilan reached out her hand.

Cheng Qingshan was quite reluctant to part with him. He was fond of drinking and had been under the control of Tu Jinghe, the doctor, since he fell ill.

He kept those bottles so that he could secretly enjoy a few drinks at home by himself once he felt better.

"You're so quick to send baby formula, but reluctant to send wine? Or is it that the wine is too expensive for me?" Lin Zhilan deliberately provoked him.

"Send it away, send it away." Cheng Qingshan, wanting to avoid the problem, lowered his head and continued eating dumplings.

Tu Jing curled the corners of his mouth.

Finally, someone has managed to control the leader.

The old man gave her face, so Lin Zhilan didn't dare to take advantage of him.

"What's so great about alcohol? When I get back to the island, I'll send you coconut powder, dried mango, cashews, and stuff like that. You can drink coconut milk when you're thirsty, and eat dried mango and cashews when you're craving something, okay?"

"Hmm," Cheng Qingshan nodded, "Just remember to send me some rice seasoning."

Cheng Qingshan had his eye on this dish.

"No problem, I'll send you some crab roe sauce later, it's delicious."

Making this sauce is too troublesome; Lin Zhilan has only made it once so far.

Ma Daniu still remembers it vividly.

However, Lin Zhilan had criticized him before, so he was too embarrassed to ask.

Chunhua knew that she would tell Lin Zhilan this as a joke, and she didn't want Lin Zhilan to do it again for Ma Daniu.

He doesn't deserve it.

"Anything you do, I'll do."

After finishing their meal, Cheng Qingshan asked again, "Have you bought your tickets back to the island? Are they sleeper berths?"

"It's all bought. My in-laws are going too. Su Lang arranged for us to be in the same carriage so we can take care of each other."

Cheng Qingshan frowned and looked at Su Lang: "Are your parents going to the island too?"

The old man was a little unhappy.

He was actually identifying with the role of Lin Zhilan's father.

Su Lang is good in every way. Cheng Qingshan also thought that since he is the youngest son in the family and is stationed on the island, Lin Zhilan will not be criticized by her in-laws in the future.

Why did they chase them all the way to the island this time?

Shouldn't Zhilan serve him?

Su Lang explained, "My mother is not in good health. The weather on the island is warm, so I wanted to invite her to stay for a few months. The retirement home approved three months, and she can come back when it gets warmer in the capital."

Cheng Qingshan then asked, "I remember your parents also had a nanny, right? What about the nanny? Is she going to work there?"

Touched and exasperated by his persistent questioning, Lin Zhilan took the initiative to say, "The nanny, Aunt Yu, also went there; her son is now one of my patients. It was also my idea to send my parents-in-law to the island."

Cheng Qingshan sighed and said to Su Lang, "Don't take advantage of Zhilan just because she's kind-hearted."

Su Lang nodded seriously, "I understand."

Lin Zhilan shrugged; she didn't think she was anything special.

The reason she was willing to give was because she had already gained a lot from these people before.

When she first returned to her home in the capital, there were several sets of clothes that Xu Yueyun had bought for her hanging in her wardrobe.

It has everything, inside and out, and everything fits perfectly.

The styles are nice too; they're all the most fashionable ones I bought.

Linlin's was also included, and Xu Yueyun didn't miss out either, treating her the same as Jiang Chengzhou.

Because Linlin is young, the two elderly people take even more care of their daughter Linlin.

Lin Zhilan saw all of this.

In her past life, she lived like an isolated island. In this life, she has met so many warm-hearted people, and Lin Zhilan is generous in turning her gratitude into giving back.

No matter what, it's time to leave.

Lin Zhilan didn't stand on ceremony and emptied Cheng Qingshan's collection of several bottles of wine.

Linlin was the most reluctant to part with the puppy, holding it tightly and showing great affection.

Cheng Qingshan laughed and said, "Why don't you stay and live with Grandpa? You can play with the dog every day."

Linlin shook her head and patted the puppy's head.

"I'm going home with my mom, dad, and brother. Grandpa Cheng, please take good care of the dog. I'll come back to see it when I have time."

Cheng Qingshan nodded hurriedly: "Then I will definitely take good care of myself and wait for Comrade Linlin to come back for a check-up."

"Good grandpa," Linlin patted his hand, "you take good care of yourself too, and don't get sick."

Her imitation of adults' speech was both heartwarming and funny.

"Wait here, I'm going to find something, I'll be right back."

The little girl is so good at sweet-talking people.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Qingshan wished he could move the whole house away for the little girl, so he hurriedly ran back to his room.

When he came out again, he was holding two pens.

Two Parker gold pens.

"Commander..."

Tu Jing exclaimed in surprise, recognizing the two pens.

One of them was given to Cheng Qingshan by the top leader.

There was another one, which was given to Brother Cheng by the commander when he first received a second-class merit.

Back then, conditions were tough, and Brother Cheng would always joke that the fountain pen that the big boss gave to Cheng Qingshan could be passed down as a family heirloom.

He always smiled and said he wanted to please the old man so that he could inherit the pen.

Cheng Qingshan got annoyed by the story, but couldn't bear to give him the pen.

It wasn't until he later received a second-class merit award that Cheng Qingshan went to great lengths to get him one.

After Brother Cheng's sacrifice, Tu Jing never saw the two pens again.

"Sir, the child is too young to use a fountain pen. Why don't you get something else instead?"
