Although he was a little strangely sad when he parted, Cheng Yuan understood one thing, that is, he was really different from before. At least he had to say goodbye to the past when he was full and his whole family was not hungry. He could not live a muddle of life because he had a doll that would not exist if he left him.

In other words, while gaining benefits, he also has more responsibilities. The greater his ability, the greater his responsibilities. This is probably what he means.

"Oh, it's really troublesome. Although I, a lucky poor boy, have obtained the inheritance of the strong, it seems that I have not changed into the mentality of the strong. But then, what is the mentality of the strong? It's a bit confused." After saying a self-deprecatingly, Cheng Yuan shook his head and never thought about these things again.

After leaving the teahouse, he kept in mind his mother's notice and went to the supermarket for a walk, bought some ready-made ingredients, fruits, wines, drinks and other things. After buying them all, he returned home.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw my mother who came over first winking herself hard, which made me feel like a riddle of underground parties.

After nodding and giving the other party a reply to everything, Zhang Weihong breathed a sigh of relief, and then his face was filled with a smile: "Oh, look, my son is back, daughter, we have something delicious at noon. Don't look at my son's usual boring, in fact, he cooks very delicious."

"Is that so? Then I'll have to try his skills well today."

Listening to this familiar voice, Cheng Yuan turned his head and found a woman who walked over from the inner room wearing a white short-sleeved T-shirt and light blue thin jeans, a big ponytail on her head and flat shoes on her feet, but she still seemed taller than her and wanted to look up at her was Wen Jing.

"Oh, it's coming so soon." Cheng Yuan smiled and greeted.

"Quick?" Wenjing blinked and said with a funny look, "I have been waiting for you for an hour and a half at your house. You probably have been too slow, so it will take so long to buy a vegetable?"

"I……"

"Oh, you don't know, my daughter." Before Cheng Yuan could speak, Zhang Weihong smiled and said, "Actually, I asked him to choose things carefully. You also know that nowadays, vegetable and meat, especially in big cities, are used for this and that medicine. Safety is a problem, so I asked him to buy the best and go to a few more markets to pick up for a while, which has delayed time."

"Hey, you really don't need to be so troublesome." Wen Jing complained, but there was a smile on her lips.

"Okay, okay, since I have bought the vegetables, Cheng Yuan, why don't you go to cook quickly!" Zhang Weihong said immediately.

"Okay, I'll go now." Cheng Yuan nodded.

"Don't be so troublesome, me, I..." Wenjing suddenly blushed when she said this, "Well, I haven't been in the kitchen much before and I don't know how to cook. Or, why don't I help washing vegetables?"

"No need, let Cheng Yuan be busy alone." Zhang Weihong smiled and pulled Wen Jing's hand, "Oh, you see, your hands are thick, you must be very tired in the office, right? Oh, I know that you public security personnel are very tired. Even if you work as a clerk in the office in the Public Security Bureau, you are more tired than white-collar workers in other companies. So, in the future, even if you let men do it, women have to learn to take care of themselves."

"Well, the office clerk of the Public Security Bureau?" Hearing this, Cheng Yuan looked at Wenjing and found that she smiled bitterly at her. So he stopped asking and talking, but picked up the things and went into the kitchen.

Most of the things Cheng Yuan bought were semi-finished ingredients, which means that the ingredients had been mixed and matched in a certain proportion. When they went back, they put the food and seasonings in a pot and fryed them. It turned out to be a very good dish.

Just like that, it took less time. Kung Pao chicken, Mapo tofu, fish-flavored shredded pork, braised cod, tomato and egg soup were all out. A typical four dishes and one soup, plus the rice that Zhang Weihong had already been stuffed, but it was more than enough if three people ate it.

But unexpectedly, when it was time to eat, Wenjing was in trouble. She was eating small and almost didn't move much. Zhang Weihong was still sharp-eyed and asked in advance: "Do you can't get used to spicy food?"

"This...yes." Wenjing admitted generously, "I can't eat spicy food."

"Ah, you naughty kid!" Hearing this, Zhang Weihong immediately turned around and criticized his son, "I know that my girlfriend can't eat spicy food. You still make so many spicy foods? Is there anything you want to eat by yourself? You, what are you good about you! Wouldn't you be scruples about others?"

"This..." Cheng Yuan touched his nose and said nothing. He didn't know Wenjing's taste. It would be better to have known each other for a day.

"It's okay, aunt, don't say that." Seeing this, Wenjing quickly advised, "Actually, he, uh, doesn't care about my feelings, but, um, I... said I, don't take special care of me, eat whatever I want, and don't betray myself for me."

"Look, listen to what others say." Zhang Weihong continued to scold his son, "Look at him, he cares about others so much, and look at you again, are you ashamed?"

"Shame!" Cheng Yuan honestly admitted his mistake.

"Hmph!" Zhang Weihong said, turned his face to Wenjing, and immediately turned into cloudy and clear, and said with a smile, "Xiaowen, you are still open and generous, much better than my unpromising son. If you should scold him in the future, you should scold him, don't give me face! This man has to be taken care of, it's not OK to spoil them, that will spoil them."

"Ah?" Wenjing smiled and looked at Cheng Yuan who was eating rice indifferently, and nodded with a smile, "I can do it, aunt."

"That's good, that's good." Zhang Weihong smiled with eyebrows all over her face, and even the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes shone brightly. She smiled while serving Wen Jing, "That's the matter, although my old man didn't come this time, but look, it's not easy for me to come this time. It's a long way. Since we're here, why don't we find time to meet the two adults first? Ah, don't worry, we're not urging you, it's just that the old people on both sides meet, let the other party know who their children are dating and what the family situation is, so as not to worry about it. Do you think this is the reason?"

"Mom!" Cheng Yuan couldn't help it, "How could this happen!"

"Eat your food and talk less!" Zhang Weihong glared.

After saying that, Zhang Weihong ignored Cheng Yuan, but looked at Wen Jing and smiled, "What do you think, Xiao Wen?"

"Well..." Wen Jing frowned and thought for a while, and finally nodded gently under the gaze of Cheng Yuan and Zhang Weihong, "Okay, let's do it."

"Huh? You agree. OK, then we won't be late, what's going on tonight?" Zhang Weihong said with a smile, "We both have a meal tonight and meet."

"Okay." Wenjing nodded with a smile, "Then I will notify my mother first, and tonight, well, I will invite you."

"No, no, no, how can you spend money?" Zhang Weihong shook his head quickly, "We must have invited you, we will. Well, even if you are a big city and things are expensive, my son can still get 13,400 yuan a month, so it is still possible to afford a meal."

"No, you misunderstood, aunt." Wenjing smiled and shook her head, "I don't mean that, but... Actually, my mother runs a restaurant. Since it's a meal, there's no need to find another place to spend money, right?"

"Ah? So that's how it's so. That's great," Zhang Weihong was filled with a glimmer of happiness. "Haha, okay, that's it, come on, eat, eat!"

The meal was so lively. After dinner, Cheng Yuan whispered to Wenjing, who was following the help of the dishes, and said, "How could you agree to this?"

"There's no way, you didn't see your mother's eyes at that time..." Wen Jing smiled bitterly, "And I've thought about it, my mother also urged me. Didn't we meet each other for this? Although something happened in the middle, the final result was the same, right?"

"Okay, that's right." Cheng Yuan agreed, "But, what my mother said just now, what's going on with the clerk of the Public Security Bureau's office?"

"I really don't want to lie to her." Wen Jing whispered, "I came over before, and she pulled me to talk, first talking about your childhood..."

"What, what happened after I was a child?" Cheng Yuan widened his eyes.

"Haha, don't worry, I won't spread your glorious deeds before. For example, you wet the bed when you were five years old, you said you would marry a girl in the same class when you were six years old, and when you were seven years old, you ran away from home. As a result, you were hungry after walking for a long time...hehe."

“…”

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore," Wenjing smiled slightly. "Actually, when she asked me about my job, I said I was working in the Public Security Bureau. Then she said that the Public Security Bureau is good, a civil servant, stable, and she said that she knew a woman, and she also worked as a clerk in the Public Security Bureau in her hometown. She is usually very leisurely, but unfortunately she is not a formal civil servant. Then she asked me if I was formally working. I said yes, she said that I am promising and can be admitted to the civil servant in big cities. The welfare benefits must be very good... Haha, what else can I say when you say this situation?"

"This, then you didn't explain to her later that you are actually a detective or a rare interpol?"

"What kind of scarce variety is so ugly." Wen Jing shook her head, "I don't want to say it, but your mother, she is so good at talking, I can't even get into it. Besides, since she already thinks that I am a clerk, it means that she likes this kind of work, which meets her psychological expectations, so she subconsciously thinks that I am. So, in order not to make things difficult for her, I simply don't tell the truth. Just misunderstandings, after all, they are all acting, right?"

"Well, that's fine." Cheng Yuan nodded.

"By the way, the time is almost over, it's time for me to go back." Wen Jing, who had arranged the dishes and chopsticks, said.

"Oh, then are you going home? Or back to work? Do I need to send you..." As soon as he said this, Cheng Yuan laughed at himself, "Look at what I said, I don't even have a car, so how can I say I'll give you there? Besides, you are a policeman. If something really happens, maybe who will protect whom."

"Haha, then you don't have to say that." Wenjing said this and stuck out her tongue slightly, "Actually, I was going back to the hospital. You forgot that I ran out of the hospital and haven't completed the discharge procedures yet... By the way, when it comes to this, do you have anything to do in the afternoon?"

"This is really a little bit of a problem, what's wrong?"

"Of course I'll discuss it in advance." Wen Jing whispered, "I'm too hasty this time. You don't even know what I like to eat. I don't know that you like spicy food. Does this look like a couple? Fortunately, it's only your mother, and your mother is quite generous and doesn't care about these things, but my mother is not so easy to fool. If we don't communicate well in advance, this matter will be troublesome tonight, and it's easy to get into trouble. You don't know, my mother is so smart."

"That's it." Cheng Yuan thought for a while, then looked back at his mother who was watching TV. "I understand, well, I will say I will accompany you out for a walk, and then... to be honest, I really have something to do in the afternoon. In this way, when you go back to the hospital to do your business first, I will do my business. When I finish my own business, I will call you and let me discuss the dinner tonight. Is it okay?"
