Li Hehua was about to take Shulin to put out the candles to sleep when there was a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw that it was Zhang Lin.
Li Hehua asked calmly, "Is something wrong?"
Zhang Lin only glanced at Li Hehua, and then moved his gaze to Shulin who was looking at them with round eyes on the bed, and only then did he smile a little, "Tieshan wants Shulin to accompany him, I will come here. Pick up Shulin and let them sleep together tonight."
Li Hehua was a little surprised, didn't Zhang Tieshan sleep with Zhang Qingshan? Plus Shulin can't sleep? But she didn't ask directly, since Zhang Tieshan wanted to take Shulin to sleep with him, let Shulin go to sleep for one night, then nodded, "Wait a moment, I'll call Shulin."
Li Hehua walked back to the bed, took Shulin out of the quilt and hugged him on his lap, and said to him, "Shulin, daddy wants to sleep with Shulin tonight, will Shulin accompany daddy?"
Shu Lin was stunned for two seconds, then blinked his eyes, his brows furrowed indiscernibly, his eyes were both happy and unhappy, he meant to accompany his sick father, but he didn't want to. Leaving her mother and wanting to sleep with her, Shulin's little hand grabbed Li Hehua's clothes, burying his face in her arms and rubbing with nostalgia.
Li Hehua knew that the little guy was reluctant to bear her, so he patted him on the back and coaxed softly, "Okay, okay, don't be reluctant to mother, it's only for one night, Dad is sick and his body hurts, and it will not hurt when he sees Shulin, so the book Will Lin accompany Daddy tonight?"
Shulin thought for a while, took Li Hehua's hand, pointed outside, and motioned her to go with him.
Li Hehua scratched his nose, "No way, Daddy's bed is too small, it can only sleep you and Daddy. Mother has no place to sleep, so Shulin can go alone?"
Shulin pursed his lips, was unhappy for a moment, and finally nodded.
Li Hehua smiled and kissed his forehead like a reward, "We Shulin are really good, let's go, we'll see my mother tomorrow morning." After speaking, he picked him up and headed towards the door, handing him over to Zhang Lin's.
Zhang Lin took Shulin and patted the back of his little grandson. Without saying a word, he turned and went to Zhang Tieshan's room. Shulin turned his head from her arms, looked at Li Hehua eagerly, stretched out his little hand and shook it. , say goodbye to her.
Li Hehua was amused by his small appearance, and also waved to him to say goodbye.
When Shulin entered Zhang Tieshan's room, Li Hehua closed the door and lay down on the bed alone, only then did he have a chance to sigh.
She really didn't expect to come here again. When she left here, she thought that she would never have any contact with the Zhang family except Shulin in the future. Who would have thought that the current connection would be so deep.
Zhang Tieshan's current appearance really made her a little at a loss. He looked at her as if he was going to swallow her up, that kind of deep possessiveness. Not going to cover up.
It was the first time that Li Hehua had been treated like this by a man. She only knew that Zhang Tieshan liked her, but she didn't know she would like her so much. It was beyond her imagination, and it was too heavy for her to bear.
She admitted that it was not that she had no feelings for Zhang Tieshan. From the first time she saw him, she was attracted by his appearance and deep masculinity. It was only later that Zhang Tieshan saw her true identity, helped her again and again, treated her well again and again, and never gave up again and again, which made her defenses melt quietly. She is not a saint, nor is she hard-hearted, and she is just an ordinary girl who has never been in love. She can't be indifferent to a man who is in line with her aesthetics.
However, the original owner left too many problems, which made her have too many concerns, so she had to suppress all the touches in her heart and firmly reject him again and again.
But now, after he gave it all, what was she supposed to do? Can she be hard-hearted and push him out again
Li Hehua covered his eyes and was very confused.
At this time, there was another knock at the door, interrupting Li Hehua's thoughts.
The knock on the door was very soft, and it rang again and again. After three knocks in total, it went silent. Li Hehua thought he heard it wrong, but after a while, it rang three times again.
The knock on the door doesn't seem to be from Zhang Lin's, and Zhang Qingshan will not knock on her door at this time, but it is even less likely that it will be Zhang Tieshan. After all, he can't move yet, who could it be
Li Hehua was puzzled, got up and asked, "Who is it?"
There was no answer from the door, only three more knocks.
Li Hehua opened the door, looked down to the ground, and saw a little Douding who was only the height of her thigh blinking at her, who was not Shulin.
Li Hehua was surprised, "Shulin, why are you here? Didn't you sleep with your father? Wouldn't you regret it?"
Shulin shook his head, his little hand grabbed the hem of Li Hehua's shirt and pulled her out.
"What's the matter, Shulin? Why are you pulling your mother? Where are you taking your mother?"
The little guy pointed to the door with his little finger, and the other hand still pulled her out.
Li Hehua couldn't, so he had to follow his strength, and then she was dragged into Zhang Tieshan's room. There was no trace of Zhang Qingshan in the room, only Zhang Tieshan on the bed was looking at her with a smile and gentle eyes.
Li Hehua: "..." Feelings can even be used by a son.
Shulin pulled Li Hehua straight to the side of the bed, climbed onto the bed first, then looked at her with big black eyes, patted the edge of the bed, and motioned her to sit.
Li Hehua sat down and pinched his little nose, "You little rascal."
Shulin blinked, crawled into her arms, buried his face and hugged her affectionately.
Li Hehua patted Shulin on the back and asked Zhang Tieshan, "It's so late, did you ask Shulin to come find me?"
Zhang Tieshan didn't feel guilty at all, smiled and said, "I didn't see you after dinner, I want to see you." Actually, he told Shulin that mother would be afraid to sleep alone, so he asked her to call her, and then the little guy Just call someone.
This person... Li Hehua only felt the heat pouring into his face uncontrollably. Fortunately, it was night and the lights were dark, otherwise he would be blushing. She glared at him angrily, "You, if you still If you don't speak well, I'll leave." He stood up and went back to sleep.
Zhang Tieshan quickly grabbed Li Hehua's hand and didn't let it go, but because of the fast movement, he pulled the wound, and his face wrinkled in pain, but he held on to Li Hehua's hand.
Li Hehua didn't dare to move all of a sudden, and hurriedly asked him, "How are you? Has the wound not opened?"
Zhang Tieshan shook his head, "Hi—it's alright, just don't leave."
Li Hehua can't do anything about this person now, "This person...you..."
Zhang Tieshan looked at her helpless appearance. Although it hurt, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. He held the hand in his hand, his fingers moved slightly, from the grip to the state of her fingers intertwined. Looking at her eyes, he said seriously: "Qiao Gao, don't run away from me again, okay? I'll treat you very well, all your concerns are not a problem, I promise you, I will solve the problem, and I will never let you be wronged, okay? it is good?"
Li Hehua lowered his head and said nothing.
Zhang Tieshan touched her hair, "Gu Gao, you don't have any feelings for me, do you? In that case, why can't you try to accept me? Take a step back and say, if I really let you down, you will leave me again. Yes, there is no need to reject me thousands of miles away because of uncertain things, right? The cakes I know are not so timid."
Li Hehua's drooping eyes blinked slightly, ripples appeared in his eyes, and his heart also fluctuated because of Zhang Tieshan's words.
She couldn't help but look at herself along Zhang Tieshan's words, is she so timid at the moment
Seems to be quite timid. Because he took the blame of the original owner and was worried about Zhang Lin's attitude towards her, he pushed Zhang Tieshan away completely, and was unwilling to give him a chance, no matter how good he was to her, or whether she had feelings for him or not.
Is this retreat really right
She has always been a free and easy girl. Although she has never been in love because of her dedication to cooking, she is used to seeing people around her divide and combine. She feels that these are normal things. , just follow your heart. But why are there so many entanglements when it comes to her? Just because he was worried about the influence of the original owner, even if he met a man who could give up his life for him, he would not dare to take a step.
Now she doesn't have an ancient man who is free and easy...
As Zhang Tieshan said, if he can't do what he said, and finally disappoints her, then it's enough to separate. Anyway, her original reputation is not good, and she has always been pointed at by others as a servant. , are used to not caring, are you afraid that you will be separated by others when the time comes? She herself is not afraid of being pointed out.
So what has she been struggling with? When did she get so twisted
Li Hehua suddenly wanted to laugh at herself, she was really imprisoned by herself, and she even forgot to be free and easy.
Li Hehua slowly raised his head, looked at Zhang Tieshan, and tried to let go of his guard for the first time, "Zhang Tieshan, if you can't do what you said and make me unhappy, then let go, right?"
Zhang Tieshan was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly burst into a strong light, he swallowed excitedly, clasping Li Hehua's hand so tight it even hurt a little, "Don't worry, I will never give you a chance to let go, if it is true One day I made you unhappy, I didn't do what I said, I'll go by myself."
To be honest, these words like a guarantee eliminated the last worry in Li Hehua's heart, and his heart was completely relieved at this moment, and then a trace of joy rose from the bottom of his heart, which made her laugh.
Forget it, Li Hehua, be free and easy, be brave, no big deal.
"That Zhang Tieshan, you have to say what you say."
Zhang Tieshan opened his eyes slightly, as if surprised but happy, with a silly expression on his face, "Gu Gao, you... You promised me, right? It's not a joke, right?"
Li Hehua's face was a little hot, and he didn't want to pay attention to him. He lowered his head and kissed the round eyes of the little guy in his arms, "Go to sleep baby, close your eyes."
The little guy grinned slightly and looked a little happy, but he still obediently closed his eyes and slept obediently, but there was a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Zhang Tieshan laughed, looked at the mother and son quietly, and waited until Shulin fell asleep before pulling the hands that the two of them crossed.
Li Hehua looked at him, "What are you doing?"
Zhang Tieshan smiled and pulled her to his side with all his strength. Li Hehua was afraid that he would pull on the wound again, so he had to put Shulin on the bed first, then followed his movements and leaned towards him, "What are you doing?"
Zhang Tieshan didn't say a word, just took Li Hehua gently into his arms, and hugged the people.
Li Hehua couldn't prevent him from doing this suddenly. He was about to get up as soon as he blushed, but Zhang Tieshan stopped him, "Don't move the cake, I'll give it a hug, just hold it for a while."
Maybe his tone was too confusing, so Li Hehua didn't move. Since he promised him, it's nothing to hug him.
So, Zhang Tieshan hugged the person who was obediently in his arms and felt like he was dreaming, but the touch in his arms was so real, he knew clearly that he was not dreaming, he was just a dream come true.
Zhang Tieshan seemed to be holding a peerless treasure, reluctant to let go.
Li Hehua leaned against Zhang Tieshan's arms, his nose filled with the smell of him, and a sense of reassurance filled his body. Perhaps, it was no big deal to take a brave step. At least at this moment, she had a solid harbor.
After leaning quietly for a while, Li Hehua stretched out his finger and poked Zhang Tieshan's chest, and told him about the business, "Zhang Tieshan, I have to go back." She came in a hurry, so she simply explained to Dahe Xiaoyuan and the others. , If you don't go back for a few days, it is estimated that everyone should be worried.
Zhang Tieshan frowned slightly, "Do you want to leave?"
Li Hehua pursed his lips helplessly, withdrew from his arms, looked at him and said, "I came out in a hurry, and I didn't have time to explain anything. If I don't show up, they should be worried, and those guests will probably think I am No more business."
Zhang Tieshan's brows loosened a little, he thought for a while, and said, "Well, you go back tomorrow, I'll let Luo Er come with you, you can stop by and see the restaurant, see where you need to decorate, how to do it, you Tell Luo Er what you think, I will ask him to ask the decoration master to re-install the restaurant. When the installation is almost the same, my injuries will be almost healed. When the time comes, I can directly open the restaurant and I can help you. , so that you won't be busy alone."
Li Hehua thought about it for a while. If he simply decorated it and added some things, it would take about 20 days. It is indeed enough for Zhang Tieshan to recover from his injury. He is healed, and then she can continue to do business with confidence, so she nodded and said. : "Okay, just do as you said, I'll go back to Dahe Xiaoyuan, and Xiaoqing Xiaohong to explain, by the way, write an announcement to tell the guests about the restaurant opening. I'll come back when I've explained it. "
Zhang Tieshan asked, "Who is Xiaoqing and Xiaohong?"
Li Hehua remembered that Zhang Tieshan still didn't know about her apprenticeship, so he said: "I thought that if I opened a restaurant, I would be very busy, and I couldn't be busy in the kitchen by myself, so I hired two apprentices and planned to train them to make snacks and cakes. , I will hand them over to them in the future, but I just accepted them, and I hurried over before I could teach them. If this restaurant is opened, they probably won't be able to do it. "
Li Hehua was a little depressed when she said this. She originally wanted to bring the two out before the restaurant opened, but now she has no time to teach. When the restaurant opens, she will be too busy alone.
Seeing Li Hehua frown, Zhang Tieshan stretched out his hand and gently smoothed his forehead, asked the basic situation of the two people, and said, "It's alright, let's see if you can bring these two children here, if you can. Come, you can take this opportunity to teach them well, and when the restaurant opens, it is estimated that you will learn almost the same, after all, the two of them already have the basics of cooking."
Li Hehua's eyes lit up, yes, she never thought of this method, this method is good. Originally, she planned to let two people watch her do it when she was doing business, and teach it when she was free, but how could it compare to teaching all over the world? Now that she is free, she can just spend the whole day teaching them. The progress of learning must be very fast, and the two should be able to get started before opening the restaurant.
In addition, during this period, I taught them how to make cakes, and they could continue to let Cao Simei take them to the town to sell, so as not to delay the business of the cakes, and they could also publicize the restaurant opening to the guests by the way.
Li Hehua nodded happily, "Then I'll go to the town tomorrow and ask the two of them. It would be best if I could bring it back."
Zhang Tieshan smiled and patted her head.
The two discussed everything, and before they knew it, they could only hear the occasional cricket cricket outside, and it was the dead of night.
Li Hehua was surprised that it was too late, and pushed him, "Zhang Tieshan, don't hug, it's too late, you should go to sleep, you need to rest more if you are injured."
Where can Zhang Tieshan fall asleep now, but Li Hehua has already spoken, so he had to kiss her on the top of her hair reluctantly before letting go, but he still grabbed her hand, "Are you sleepy?"
Li Hehua couldn't help pouting, "It's all this time, how can I not be sleepy?"
Zhang Tieshan could no longer hold on to it anymore, so he slowly released his hand, "Then go to sleep." However, those eyes were still fixed on the person.
Li Hehua is helpless and funny, how does a tall man feel so clingy? I had no choice but to shake his hand, "Okay, okay, I'm going back to bed, you go to bed earlier."
Zhang Tieshan nodded, his eyes glued to her figure, and he closed his eyes until he disappeared, but his mind was full of Li Hehua's figure.
The corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.
