Chen Zhiguo saw that she had something to say. “What’swWrong?”

The children in the room instantly quieted down.

Ding Jun looked at these cute and obedient children and the brand-new little house. Her face was so red that she did not dare to look at the man, but she could not help but say, “I’ve decided not to get a divorce for now.”

The room was quiet for a second or two. The children immediately cheered after they reacted.

“That’s great! You’re not leaving! We can eat dishes that are even better than meat again.”

“You’ll be our mother from now on. You’ll definitely be happy when you’re with our father. We’ll treat you well too.”

The children began to discuss among themselves. Chen Zhiguo stood up with a smile and looked at Ding Jun with uncertainty in his eyes. “Okay. I have already applied for a military report for you. After my vacation is approved, you can come with me. Are you willing?”

Ding Jun looked at the broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted, and burly man in front of her. She thought for a moment and nodded. “Yes.”

Putting aside the fact that Chen Zhiguo was steady and reliable, he was her husband in name. If she could go out with him, she could also see the outside world. Perhaps she would seize some opportunity and become a rich woman?

Thinking of this, Ding Jun’s eyes instantly lit up. She felt that the future was in sight.

Chen Zhiguo looked at the little woman’s eyes that suddenly lit up for some reason. She looked excited and full of anticipation. He curved his lips and immediately turned to look at the children. He coughed lightly and said, “Alright, you all should go to sleep.”

The eldest brother was the first to understand. He quickly called his younger brothers and said, “Yes, yes. Let’s go to sleep. Father and mother also need to rest. Everyone, be good.”

The few children understood and quickly crawled into the bed and lay down obediently. They were also carried by their older brothers and stuffed into the bed.

Ding Jun looked at this scene and recalled how they called her ‘mother’ just now. The corners of her lips unconsciously curled up.

“This bed is just right for seven people to sleep on. It’s a little crowded for eight people. You can sleep in that room. I just cleaned it up this afternoon.” Chen Zhiguo smiled and looked at Ding Jun somewhat embarrassedly.

Ding Jun was stunned. She remembered that she had just heard about this matter from Mother Ding today.

Chen Zhiguo did not go home all year round, so there was no room for him and his six children in the house. Next to the main house of the Chen family was an old house that had been left vacant by relatives. It was given to Chen Zhiguo’s family for marriage and loan.

In addition, because the matter was quite urgent, only one side room had been cleaned up. Therefore, in the few days since the marriage, Ding Jun could only sleep with the six children first.

While Ding Jun was in a daze, the little boss cut in for no reason. “Father, mother, both of you can sleep in that room! I was too embarrassed to say it before, but it’s quite crowded to sleep with seven people. You two adults should not squeeze with us children.”

Ding Jun’s face instantly turned red. Her ears were burning, and she did not dare to look at Chen Zhiguo.

Chen Zhiguo’s face was also slightly hot.

The new room was clean and bright. There was a new quilt that Mother Ding had just brought over this afternoon. It had the smell of a new room.

Ding Jun’s stomach was a little painful. After settling the children down, she crawled into the quilt and laid down.

Chen Zhiguo carried a hot water bottle in one hand and a basin filled with cold water in the other. He entered the room. “This is the hot water that I just boiled. Soak your feet in it. I heard that it can alleviate the pain.”

Ding Jun sat up when she heard that. She secretly sighed at the man’s thoughtfulness. She smiled at Chen Zhiguo and did not refuse. “Alright, I’ll have to trouble you.”

As he spoke, Chen Zhiguo had already poured the water and adjusted the temperature. “It’s no trouble.”

Ding Jun stretched out her feet and was about to get off the bed when she saw the man squatting in front of her and pulling her feet into the hot water.

Ding Jun’s mind went blank in an instant. When she came back to her senses, her cheeks were stained with two red clouds. She was a little flustered and hurriedly said, “Ah, I, I can do it myself..”
