TGDS Chapter 40.6

Good Dad System (Arc 4) Chapter 40.6: The Eccentric Dad In The Chronicles (20)

“That’s too much.” Li Xiuzhi put down her chopsticks and glared at her husband. “Ask Jianshe and Jianlai what they think of this kind of food.”

 

“It’s very good, mom cooked it very well!” Pei Jianlai immediately praised her, and he did not forget to finish the food in the bowl.

 

Pei Jianshe also nodded vigorously. Ever since he successfully met Su Bifang, he has been in a state of great happiness: “It’s delicious and sweet!” Everything he eats is sweet. He is happy to think that he will be able to marry Bifang after the house is built.

 

“It’s just you.” Li Xiuzhi continued to eat and ignored Pei Naochun. She was used to the eating habits.

 

Pei Naochun had a blank expression on his face, and he almost suspected that he was the only abnormal person left in the family. Today, the meal at home was quite simple, with a piece of corn and half a bowl of clear soup for each person, plus a serving of cold cucumber – the cucumber was only added with a little salt, and calling it a cold dish was really giving it face.

 

Ever since Pei Jianshe and Pei Jianlai established their relationship, Li Xiuzhi began to cut back on her family’s food. She had reasons and proofs for her reasons, saying that they would have to spend money on building a house, buy meat for the wedding, and spend money on the New Year… Anyway, there was always a reason, and the two sons accepted it quickly, but Pei Naochun was not used to eating half-full for so long.

 

But in the final analysis, it’s because we are poor these days.

 

He was very hungry and obediently began to eat. He couldn’t help looking at Li Xiuzhi. He always suspected that people of this era had their own body detectors and could accurately prepare the amount of food that would not kill people with hunger. Otherwise, they would have fainted long ago with such a high intensity of work.

 

Li Xiuzhi She continued to announce her policy: “You have some free time recently, so you should go to the mountains to get some fruits and other things. Later, we will build a house at home and use it for entertaining guests. Also, don’t tear your clothes. If you tear your clothes again, ask your father to sew them for you!”

 

Pei Naochun almost choked to death. Before he could resist, he heard a noise coming from the door —”Dad, Mom, big brother, second brother, I’m home.” Pei Jiancheng appeared at the door. Although there were a few traces of mending, they were the least in the family. “Jiancheng is back.” Li Xiuzhi’s heart softened when she saw her third son coming back. She even forgot what she had said to her husband a few days ago. “Why didn’t you tell mom first? Look, I haven’t prepared any food for you. You must be starving, right?” Pei Jiancheng smiled and said, “It’s okay, Mom. I ate some steamed buns on the way.” “It’s cold now, right? Eat, sit down first. Mom will get you something to eat.” Li Xiuzhi immediately ran to her room, took an egg from the closet, and then ran to the kitchen, intending to make a bowl of egg water for her son. She was so busy running around that she didn’t have time to take care of the people at the table.

 

Pei Jiancheng still had some of the youthful aura on his face. He sat in his seat and smiled at Pei Naochun: “Dad, I’m back!”

 

Pei Naochun just nodded, which was his usual practice.

 

“Jiancheng, you’ve lost weight!” Pei Jianlai was the first to talk to his younger brother. He had been Jealous and envious of his younger brother, but more often than not, he was brainwashed by Li Xiuzhi’s long-term propaganda and education. He also felt that his younger brother was a rare talent. Studying was difficult, as he could not even finish elementary. His younger brother could study for so long, and he would definitely be a capable person in the future!

 

“I’m not thin, maybe it’s because the clothes I’ve been wearing are too thin.” Pei Jiancheng smiled shyly and looked at Pei Jianshe again, “Brother, have you grown taller?”

 

“Not tall!” Pei Jianshe scratched his head embarrassedly and laughed foolishly.

 

Pei Jiancheng looked at his second brother in confusion. Why did he feel that his eldest brother was weird?

 

Pei Jianlai was not shy and quickly shared his happy news with his brother: “Mom helped your brother and I found a girl. I haven’t had time to tell you yet, but we will get married next year! The sister-in-law that my eldest brother found for us is Sister Bifang from the village!”

 

Pei Jianshe quickly hit his brother, his face red, “What nonsense are you talking about sister-in-law or not! It’s not good if others hear it. Anyway, that’s what happened.”

 

Pei Jiancheng also laughed: “That’s great, I will have two sisters-in-law in the future!”

 

“Also, we’re going to build a new house! Mom and Dad didn’t tell you because they didn’t want to disturb your studies. The house will be ready when you come back next time!”

 

Hearing his brother’s words, Pei Jiancheng’s face suddenly froze. He tightened his hands under the table. He hesitated, wondering if his request was inappropriate. It felt like someone was fighting in his heart, a fight to the death. He didn’t want to stay in the city, but his family. Before he could continue to worry, Li Xiuzhi came out of the kitchen swiftly, holding the fragrant egg water. She came out from far inside the house and put the egg water in front of Pei Jiancheng: “Come, Jiancheng, eat. Look at you, you have become so thin. Studying must be so hard!” She looked at her son eagerly. She was not hungry at all. She was happier to see her son eating than to see herself eating!

 

Pei Jianshe and Pei Jiancheng, who were standing next to them, couldn’t help but lick their lips and put their hands on their stomachs. When Pei Jiancheng smelled the food, his stomach began to churn and he was very hungry. Without saying a word, he picked up the bowl, wanting to pour it into his stomach. She was used to cooking for him every time he came back. “Wait!” Pei Naochun suddenly spoke, pressing his hand firmly on Pei Jiancheng’s hand, stopping his son from drinking.
