In a sudden moment of clarity, Jin Long realized something. Of course, Su Shen would never treat his sister-in-law in such a manner. Even if he behaved this way with his own brother, he would never extend the same treatment to his sister-in-law. Yes, he had to trust in his brother’s character. Su Shen, after all, was now nothing more than a devoted husband.

As Jin Long contemplated this, his gaze fell upon a pile of difficult-to-handle pig’s feet and innards. He looked at Lin Cheng with a hint of confusion, “Can we really sell this stuff? Our sister-in-law can cook so many delicious dishes, why not let her teach us a few that we can sell for breakfast?”

He was skeptical about the business prospects of selling stewed pig innards and feet. Who would spend money on such things? He wouldn’t even accept them if they were given to him for free.

Upon hearing this, Lin Cheng didn’t quite know how to respond. He scratched the back of his head and gave a good-natured smile, his face still handsome. “We’ll have to give it a try,” he said. “My sister also suggested that we start with a stall and see how it goes while we prepare for the shop in town, Once the shop is open, we won’t have to run around so much. Then we can decide whether to sell only breakfast or to include stewed dishes as well.”

Rolling up his sleeves and bending down to work, Jin Long said, “That sounds like a plan. I hope you guys succeed! Let’s get to work, brother.”

Jin Long moved the stove over and picked up a pig’s foot from the ground, beginning to singe the hair off it. Lin Cheng was equally industrious, washing the pig’s feet after Jin Long had singed them. The two men worked well together, and by six in the morning, they had packed up everything to be delivered to the Lin family. They loaded it onto the pig farm’s tricycle and set off together for Little Lin Village.

Meanwhile, Su Shen had already delivered his goods to the individual contractors in town and bought two large bags of apple pears from the fruit shop. He was now driving the truck back home.

By the time Su Shen returned home, the two boys had already left for school. Gu Zi was leisurely having breakfast in the dining room with Su Le. Without a doubt, the breakfast was the dumplings they had made the night before.

Upon seeing Su Shen place the two large bags of apples and pears in the corner, Gu Zi walked over to the dining table. She ruffled Su Lets hair, causing the child to look up in confusion. When she recognized Su Shen, she broke into a smile.

Su Shen was still wearing the same clothes he had changed into the night before – a military green vest with a grey jacket and slightly worn black pants. There were some blood stains on his jacket, giving the impression that he had been busy and hadn’t had a chance to rest. Although his handsome face didn’t show signs of fatigue, she guessed that he had been busy from last night until this morning and probably hadn’t had breakfast yet.

She tilted her chin up at him, her eyebrows raised in a playful invitation. “Ah, it seems we’re in sync,” she said coyly. “I knew you’d be coming back, so I made an extra plate of dumplings. Go wash your hands and come eat!”

Upon hearing her words, Su Shen realized that he was indeed a bit hungry. He washed his hands and returned to sit down. When Gu Zi saw him, she placed a plate of untouched dumplings in front of him. The portion was neither too much nor too little; it was precisely the amount he usually ate. How could this not be considered a silent understanding between them?

Su Shen didn’t realize that when he ate the first dumpling, thinking about this unspoken agreement, the curve of his smile was already very noticeable. So noticeable that Gu Zi, who was sitting next to him, could see it clearly. At this moment, he was in a very good mood.

Gu Zi was somewhat surprised. This man, who usually didn’t show his emotions, was actually smiling so obviously. Gu Zi was secretly pleased, thinking that this meant she was doing a good job as a wife, right?

Gu Zi didn’t sav anything. she just continued to eat her breakfast slowly. savoring each bite. Occasionally, she would glance at his elegant way of eating, her smile never fading. It turned out that being with the person you like, even something as simple as having breakfast together, could be so beautiful.

Gu Zi ate less and had started eating earlier than Su Shen, so she finished before him. After handing their child, Su Le, to Su Shen, she picked up two large bags of apple pears and went into the kitchen to start making frozen pears.

Gu Zi washed all the apple pears, dried them with a paper towel, and then put them all in the refrigerator to freeze. Su Shen, who had finished cleaning up the dishes, came over to watch. He asked her, “Is that all?”

Gu Zi closed the refrigerator door and looked at Su Shen, replying, “Yes, making frozen pears is actually very simple. It mainly requires time to wait. This way, they will probably freeze for about a week. When the time comes, take them all out and let them thaw overnight in the room. The next day, put them all back in the refrigerator to freeze for another week, and then they can be eaten.’

Su Shen looked at his petite wife with admiration in his eyes and said with a smile, “There really isn’t anything you can’t do, wife. You’re amazing! What are you planning to do today?”

Gu Zi picked up their little girl who was following behind Su Shen, kissed her indulgently, and after thinking for a moment, said, “I’m going to help my mother and sister-in-law make braised pork. It’s their first time making it in large quantities, so I need to supervise. I’m going to get ready to leave now.. Do I look neat and pretty?”
