On the anniversary of the death of my wife and daughter, I am reborn

Chapter 5 The warmth I felt for the first time in 4 years

As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Xinghang saw Sisi sitting on a small bench in the center of the living room.

When the little guy saw his father coming back, he stood up, ran to Zhao Xinghang, and raised his head to look at him.

"Dad, these are the biscuits that Brother Haohao brought me from school. Sisi has never eaten them before. They are really delicious!" Sisi blinked her big, watery eyes with happiness visible to the naked eye. feel.

Zhao Xinghang touched his daughter's head.

Sisi was really well-behaved, always running towards him with a smile like this.

But he always ignored her before and wouldn't even touch her.

Zhao Xinghang put down what he was holding and picked up his daughter.

The little guy is really light, with not much flesh on his body.While other children at her age were chubby, his daughter was so thin that she could feel her bones.

"Dad, is Sisi heavy? If dad can't pick her up, he can put Sisi down." Sisi asked her father cautiously.

Because her father couldn’t hold her before, her mother said that her father couldn’t hold her because of poor health.

Maybe it was because I was too heavy and it would be bad if I crushed my father.

"Sisi is not heavy at all, but a little light. Sisi will eat more in the future and grow taller!"

Zhao Xinghang feels that although his daughter is young, she is really sensible.

"Can Sisi be as tall as brother Haohao?" Sisi looked curious.

Brother Haohao often says that he is short, but she wants to be much taller than him!

"Of course!" Zhao Xinghang smiled and touched Gou Sisi's nose with his finger.

"Dad, dad! Can you fly me high? Brother Haohao's father often flies brother Haohao high. Sisi wants to fly high too!"

Little Sisi's eyes shone with anticipation.

Without saying a word, Zhao Xinghang threw Sisi high, caught it again, and repeated it several times.

Sisi was amused and giggled.

She must have heard the noise outside. Xu Xinrou, who was making clothes in the room, came out at this time and happened to see this scene.

She was suddenly in a trance for a moment...

She had seen this kind of scene many times in her dreams.

But in reality, it’s the first time I’ve seen it!

He actually plays with the children?

Are you in a dream now?

She grabbed the back of her hand and it hurt a little!

After confirming that it was in reality, her eyes turned red.

The child has never experienced father's love since he was born!She often lied to her children and said that either her father was busy or that he was not feeling well and could not hold her.

She had always felt guilty about her child, and therefore she felt even more grudge and resentment towards Zhao Xinghang.

No matter whether Zhao Xinghang suffered a blow today or was acting like this for some other reason, she was very moved.

"Sisi, go cook with mom." Xu Xinrou stretched out her hand to catch little Sisi.

Zhao Xinghang handed the child to her and said gently to Xu Xinrou: "I'll make dinner. You and Sisi play for a while. When it's ready, you can come and eat!"

Unable to tolerate the latter's reaction, Zhao Xinghang had already walked to the kitchen.

Xu Xinrou: "?"

She really couldn't see what he was thinking.

He had never had the patience to pretend for so long before.

"Mom, dad said he would cook for us!" Xiao Sisi said to Xu Xinrou excitedly.

Xu Xinrou nodded numbly, "Well, dad cooks for us..."

But can he cook?

Zhao Xinghang walked into the kitchen.

Take out the cutting board and kitchen knife, cut off half of the meat, put the other half in the iron basin and then put it in the water tank to let it float on the water.

One pound of meat is enough for their family of three.

Wash the meat, cut it into pieces, and then use a knife to mince the meat on the cutting board.

"Xinrou, is there any starch at home? I don't know where it is?" He had never cooked at home before, so naturally he didn't know where some things were placed.

He learned to cook after they left in the previous life.

In order to pay off debts in his previous life, he made a lot of things and even went to work in a restaurant. He also learned how to cook from the chef there.

Xu Xinrou came over and found starch for him.

Watch him put the minced meat into the basin, chop the ginger and garlic into the basin, and crack a big egg that he brought back.

This action is extremely skillful!

It can be said that it is a skill acquired by housewives who have been experienced for many years.

Zhao Xinghang took the starch, said thank you to Xu Xinrou, and then continued to season.

He...he would be so gentle and polite to her?

"What are you going to do?" Xu Xinrou asked curiously.

"I'm going to make meatball noodles. You and Sisi both need to eat something good!" Zhao Xinghang replied while making it.

"But...but there is no face at home anymore..." Xu Xinrou said with some embarrassment.

"It doesn't matter, I'm going to knead the dough myself to make ramen." As he spoke, he poured some flour into an empty basin.

Xu Xinrou's face was full of surprise.

Feeling that Xu Xinrou hadn't left yet, Zhao Xinghang turned around and looked at her with a smile, "You go play with Sisi for a while. I'll call you when the meal is ready!"

That smile actually moved Xu Xinrou.

He rarely smiled at them. The last time I saw him smiling like this was probably the first time they met.

She nodded and walked towards Sisi.

"Mom, dad, is the food ready?" Sisi ran over and grabbed Xu Xinrou's legs.

"Dad asked us to wait." She smiled softly.

Today, she actually felt the warmth of home that she had felt for nearly four years...

Zhao Xinghang added an appropriate amount of water to the flour and started kneading the dough.

After a while, a smooth dough came out.

Put the dough on the chopping board and continue kneading. When it's almost done, place the dough and start proofing.

During this period, he boiled water for later use.

The water in another pot was boiling before kneading, and he began to put the meatballs in.

The gas stove at home can burn two pots at the same time.

After the meatballs were made and the dough was almost risen, he rolled the dough into a long strip and stretched it while throwing it.

When the dough is almost stretched, roll out the dough, cut it into strips, and start pulling the noodles.

Put the pulled noodles into a pot of boiling water and cook them. After the noodles were cooked, Zhao Xinghang took out three bowls and put the noodles into the bowls.

By this time the meatballs were ready.

After adjusting the flavor of the soup, he put the meatballs into a noodle bowl and sprinkled them with chopped green onions.

Although it looks monotonous, the aroma is fragrant.

Zhao Xinghang put all the noodles on the dining table. Seeing that the mother and daughter were no longer in the living room, he walked towards their bedroom.

Opening the door, I saw Xu Xinrou sitting in front of the sewing machine, typing something, and Sisi playing with small cards on the side.

This sewing machine, if he remembered correctly, was given to her by Li Hui from across the street.

He went over and picked up Sisi and said to Xu Xinrou: "Xinrou, it's time to eat!"

The three of them went to the table together.

"Wow, the noodles made by dad are so delicious! Sisi likes them so much!" Sisi said while clapping her little hands.

"Eat more if you like it!" he said with a smile.

For an instant.

Sisi's hand reached out to Zhao Xinghang's face.

Zhao Xinghang didn't react and looked confused.

Xu Xinrou stretched out her hand to stop Sisi's movements.
