Chapter 237
When Fu Zhengzheng and her mother are cooking in the kitchen, Fu Xing screams in the yard suddenly, “Mummy, come here now!”
She shivers, throws away the plate and rushes outside . When rushing to the hallway, she almost collides with Han Siqi who is also running out wildly .
With no time to talk, they stabilize their bodies and continue to rush out .
At the gate, Fu Xing is clapping and cheering, “Mummy, come to look . So commanding!”
Looking towards the direction of her son’s hand, Fu Zhengzheng sees a military truck, before which five soldiers in military uniforms stand in a line . They salute simultaneously to the imposing man standing in front of them, and then they get into the truck and drive away .
Seeing that, Fu Zhengzheng sighs with relief and then asks Fu Xing with a glower, “You called me urgently to look at this?”
Fu Xing nods seriously, “Yes! Mummy, you can’t see so commanding soldiers if you come late . ”
Han Siqi’s facial expression relaxes immediately . For fear that Fu Zhengzheng will scold Fu Xing, Han Siqi drags him aside smilingly and says softly, “Xingxing, don’t scream like that later if there is nothing urgent . You will scare your mummy, understand?”
Fu Xing feels injured, “I just wanted to call mummy to look at the soldiers and didn’t mean to scare her . ”
“Xingxing didn’t scream . You made a storm in a teacup . ” Chen Yuying defends Fu Xing instantly when she sees her daughter criticizing him, although she herself is also startled by him .
Zhen Mingzhi changes the topic directly . He pats Fu Xing, points at Zhen Chao entering the yard and asks, “Xingxing, do you know him?”
Seeing so many people standing on his side, Fu Xing who is emboldened by the support makes a face towards Fu Zhengzheng and then turns around to look up and down at Zhen Chao .
He recognizes Zhen Chao quickly, clapping and cheering again, “Grandfather, this is uncle! Uncle, you are so handsome and commanding in the military uniform!”
Zhen Chao wore casual clothes in the morning while he is wearing a military uniform now .
Zhen Chao walks to Fu Xing, lifts him up smilingly, pats his little face and asks, “Really?”
Fu Xing hooks Zhen Chao’s neck and nods seriously, “Really! You are even more handsome and commanding than my daddy!”
What he says amuses Zhen Mingzhi and Chen Yuying .
Zhen Chao can’t help nipping Fu Xing’s plump cheeks and smiles, “You’re so good at coaxing . ”
“Uncle, could you lend your military uniform to me? I want to become handsome and commanding too . ”
“No problem . ” Zhen Chao agrees without hesitation .
Zhen Mingzhi interrupts, “Xingxing, how about joining the army when you grow up?”
“OK!” Fu Xing responds loudly .
Zhen Mingzhi becomes excited instantly and gives Fu Xing a thumbs-up, “You are proved to be a member of our Zhen family! Ambitious! Great . Xingxing, I’ll teach you basic skills from tomorrow to make you strong . ”
Hearing that, Chen Yuying disapproves at once, “Xingxing’s surname is Han, not Zhen . Even if you want to teach him, his grandpa and grandma have the final say . Don’t bother . ”
Thinking of what her two children suffered when they were young, she feels sympathetic . But Zhen Mingzhi said the two children are surnamed Zhen after him, so he could teach them as he wanted, and she mustn’t meddle . Therefore, she often quarreled with Zhen Mingzhi in the past . Now when she hears Zhen Mingzhi will torment her little grandson, how can she agree? She opposes him in the name of Fu Xing’s grandpa and grandma on purpose .
Zhen Mingzhi snorts, “Who told you Xingxing is surnamed Han? His surname is Fu on the household register . ”
His implication is: although Xingxing isn’t surnamed Zhen, he isn’t surnamed Han either, so he has the right to arrange Xingxing’s life in the future .
Seeing his parents about to quarrel, Zhen Chao speaks before his mother, “Mom, it’s not bad to exercise since childhood . Do you think so?”
Then he says to his father, “But Xingxing hasn’t been trained before . Even if you want to teach him, you’d better teach step by step, or the result will be opposite to what you wish . ”
Hear what their son says, Chen Yuying and Zhen Mingzhi stop arguing .
Fu Zhengzheng looks at her father and can’t help asking, “Dad, how do you know Fu Xing is surnamed Fu on the household register?”
Her household register was burnt in the fire that broke out in the Happy Community . Afterward, she reapplied for an ID card . When she registered for marriage with Han Siqi, formalities were very simple . That’s perhaps because Han Siqi had asked for preferential treatment .
Zhen Mingzhi’s eyes flicker and is about to open mouth when Han Siqi who kept silent at the door smells deeply and asks: “What’s the smell?”
“Oh, my dish!” Chen Yuying runs to the kitchen while screaming .
“Mom, leave it to me . ” Fu Zhengzheng stops her mother and runs ahead . Han Siqi follows her quickly .
A pot of stewed pork with brown sauce is burnt into charcoal on the stove in the kitchen .

Fu Zhengzheng turns off the fire and scoops the lump of black meat in the pot . Han Siqi helps her aside .
Chen Yuying looks at them regretfully, “Look at my memory . A good pot of meat is burnt like this . ”
Fu Xing who is still in Zhen Chao’s arms becomes anxious and swings his hands, “Grandmother, without meat, what will I eat in the evening?”
Chen Yuying turns around to open the fridge, “There is more meat in the fridge . I’ll cook for you again . ”
Fu Zhengzheng stops her mother at once and glowers at Fu Xing, “Have vegetables and soup . No meat . ”
Fu Xing has been overweight because of the pampering of Han Siqi’s parents and becomes keen on stewed pork with brown sauce . Therefore, Fu Zhengzheng begins to limit the quantity of meat he eats and forbids him from taking snacks to the kindergarten . But her mother Chen Yuying often gives Fu Xing what he likes including stewed pork with brown sauce behind her back .
Fu Xing says to Zhen Chao frustratedly, “Uncle, mummy forbids me from eating meat, so I certainly can’t be as handsome and commanding as you in the future . ”
“Yes . How can he grow healthily without meat? He will even have no strength . ” Chen Yuying echoes .
“What’s the relation between eating meat and being handsome?” Fu Zhengzheng ignores them and pushes them out, “It’s too late to cook stewed pork with brown sauce . I’ll cook two more vegetables randomly and let’s just eat them . ”
Fu Xing bends against Zhen Chao’s chest and looks feeble .
Chen Yuying whispers to him, “I’ll fetch cake for you . ”
Fu Xing’s eyes light up in a flash . Chen Yuying keeps winking at him, so Fu Xing covers his mouth immediately, uncovers it slowly and puts his forefinger to his lips, signaling Zhen Chao to be silent . The three generations leave the kitchen together with mysterious smiles .
Fu Zhengzheng has heard what her mother says . She says to Han Siqi indignantly, “The boy has become more and more disobedient since he came to C City . He even dares to talk back to me . I’ll punish him later . ”
Han Siqi asks with a smile while washing the pot, “Do you know why he is disobedient to you?”
“He relies on my parents’ pampering, so it’s my parents’ fault . ”
“Didn’t my parents pamper him too?”
Fu Zhengzheng curls her lips, “That’s because Fu Xing knows your parents just love him rather than me . ”
Han Siqi puts the clean pot on the stove with a silent smile .

Fu Zhengzheng understands him quickly . After coming to C City, she wears a happy smile every day, because her parents love her, and Han Siqi and Fu Xing accompany her . Although Fu Xing is young, he is smart and knows a lot . In B City, he used to protect her carefully and worry about her anytime . What he did was beyond his age . Now in C City, he can be relieved and return to a child’s nature finally .
Noticing she is moved, Han Siqi strokes her hair and says affectionately, “Just let them do what they like, so long as they are glad . Cook now . I’ll heat the two dishes that were cooked just now in the microwave oven . ”
“Do you know how?” Fu Zhengzheng isn’t sure .
Han Siqi looks proud, “I can do anything in the kitchen except cooking . ”
Fu Zhengzheng begins to cook while smiling to herself .
The dinner is simple, but they enjoy it very much .
After dinner, Han Siqi offers to do all the kitchen housework alone . Chen Yuying wants to help him but is ‘driven’ out of the kitchen by Fu Zhengzheng .
They come to the sitting room . When Chen Yuying cuts fruit for them, she can’t help looking towards the dining room .
Zhen Chao doesn’t feel comfortable either and asks for several times, “Zhengzheng, won’t you go to help Siqi?”
“Leave him alone . ”
“Siqi is a guest anyway . We are sitting here to eat fruit and talk leisurely while he is busy alone in the kitchen . I don’t think it’s OK . ”
Zhen Mingzhi takes a sip of tea and says lightly, “It’s not a big deal . If he wants to be the son-in-law of our Zhen Family, he must show his utmost sincerity . ”
Fu Zhengzheng curls up in the sofa, waves at her brother and says like her father, “Brother, you can go to help him if you want, but we won’t . ”
Zhen Chao looks awkward, “I can wash clothes and clean the house, but I am a green hand in the kitchen housework . If I can do it, I will certainly go to help him . ”
Chen Yuying says with a pretending criticism, “That you can’t do housework is because of your dad, isn’t it? He always says, ‘A good man should be ambitious rather than working in the kitchen . ’ Why can Siqi work in the kitchen now?”
Zhen Mingzhi snorts, “I let him experience life instead of working in the kitchen, or he will think it’s easy for my daughter to raise Xingxing these years . ”
Chen Yuying rebuts impolitely, “Old man, who praised Siqi’s great morality in chess play before? You change your attitude so quickly?”
Han Siqi has accepted their tests silently and never complained these days, and he loves her daughter heart and soul, so she has become softhearted .

“I’m testing him, and his test period hasn’t been over . ”
“If Chaochao comes to the house of his parents-in-law and washes bowls and plates for them…”
Zhen Mingzhi interrupts her immediately, “It’s impossible! My son is so excellent, and how can he wash bowls and plates for others?”
“Your son is excellent, and isn’t my son-in-law excellent? Your son is a division commander, while my son-in-law is a deputy general manager of such a large company!”
Hearing that, Fu Xing, who is trying on Zhen Chao’s military uniform, looks around and interrupts confusedly, “Grandmother, grandfather, who is more excellent, my uncle or my daddy?”
When they are about to reply, Han Siqi comes over and they all fall silent .
Fu Zhengzheng pulls a wry face and says, “Dad, mom, look at you . One praises your son to be capable while the other compliments her son-in-law on his great ability . Aren’t you afraid to be laughed at by others?”
“This is the fact!” Chen Yuying and Zhen Mingzhi say simultaneously .
Hearing that, Zhen Chao can’t help bursting into laughter .
“You can compete . ”
Fu Xing says several times, but no one hears him, so he climbs onto the tea table, stands high and says loudly, “Uncle, compete with my daddy . Then I’ll know who is more excellent . ”
“How?” Zhen Chao asks with great interest .
Fu Zhengzheng poses cheerfully, “Fight . Like this, hum! Ha!”
Looking at his funny look in Zhen Chao’s military uniform, others all laugh out .
At this moment, he turns around quickly . Because he is too fast, he stamps on the edge of the tea table and fails to stand stably . As a result, his plump body drops from the tetable uncontrollably .
“Ah–”
“Be cautious!”
