Chapter 342: Chapter 341 Senior Colonel Tangâs Temptation (Part 2) Chapter 342: Chapter 341 Senior Colonel Tangâs Temptation (Part 2) After sending Luo Gang away and closing the door, she saw Tang Zelin measuring the bedâs dimensions to figure out where to place it.
She heard him muttering as he touched his chin, âHmm, this bedâs craftsmanship is really good. It should definitely be used well; otherwise, it would be such a waste.â
Su Shu rolled up her sleeves behind him, pretending not to hear his comment.
Tang Zelin stretched out his arms toward Xiaoâai, âXiaoâai, come, let your uncle hug you. Weâre getting a new bed!â
Xiaoâai didnât move immediately but looked at her aunt Su Shu first. Su Shu nodded slightly, âXiaoâai, come down and play for a bit; weâll get on it after switching the beds.â
This time, Xiaoâai stood up from the bed, walked over to Tang Zelin, who lifted her off the bed, and she put on her shoes to find Su Shu.
While Su Shu was cooking, Tang Zelin took off his military jacket, rolled up his sleeves, and quickly replaced the bed. The old one, a one and a half-sized bed, was carried out by him with both hands.
As the greens hit the pan, they sizzled, and by the time Tang Zelin came back after carrying things out, the scent from the pot had already spread throughout the room.
âIs there anything else in the house that needs repairing or throwing out?â
âNo more, thereâs water in the plastic tub. Go wash up.â
âOkay.â
At Su Shuâs home, the water bucket, distributed at the resettlement site, couldnât hold much water. It was sufficient for drinking and washing faces, but not really enough for bathing or washing clothes.
Next to it, there was a gourd scoop. Tang Zelin hadnât seen one of these in many years and was quite surprised.
He scooped half a scoop of water into the basin, washed a bit, and then paused, surprised to see a box of soap next to it.
âSu Shu?â
âHmm?â Su Shu had just taken a plate of stir-fried wild vegetables off the stove and looked up at him.
Tang Zelin held up the soap, very surprised, âWe still have this at home?â
In the list of supplies for the safety zone, there were no such luxurious daily necessities. Their troops washed with only water, and he felt it had been a long time since he last smelled such fragrance, no wonder Su Shu always had a faint fresh scent about her.
Senior Colonelâs thoughts began to wildly flutter.
Seeing this, Su Shu smiled gently, âAh, youâre talking about the soap. I had it before we fled. When I stayed in hotels with Xiaoâai, I wasnât used to their soap, so I bought a few new bars.â
Washing the pan and pouring oil, she began frying the second dish.
This was the first time the couple was having a meal at home after their marriage. Su Shu had specially prepared a few dishes, partly to nourish them and partly as a celebration.
After Tang Zelin had his fill, feeling refreshed and brisk, he dried the water droplets from his hair with a towel, walked over, and gently touched Xiaoâaiâs head, cautioning her, âXiaoâai, donât get too close to the frying pan; you might get burnt.â
Xiaoâai obediently took a few steps back, standing by his tall legs.
The two, father and daughter, one tall and one short, stood guard by her side like sentinels.
Looking up, Su Shu said helplessly, âWhat are you doing standing around here? Go and rest.â
âCan I help you?â
âNo need, itâll be ready soon.â
Xiaoâai, looking up at Tang Zelin, tilted her head as he bent down and stroked the little girlâs head, curving his lips and feigning sadness, âLook, your aunt is shunning me.â
The little girlâs eyes, moist and shining, turned as she slowly and gently touched Tang Zelinâs thigh as if to comfort him, not to be sad, making his Iron Gallbladder Bearâs Heart instantly melt into a puddle.
He said to Su Shu, âThis little girl really is adorable.â
âThat she is! Whose child do you think she is?â
âMine,â Tang Zelin declared brazenly.
âSheâs mine!â
