I was busy until midnight, eating meals while working.
Shen Zhishou's modified body had never felt tired before, but today he was starting to feel the strain!
After finishing his work, Shen Zhishou plopped down on the ground, not wanting to move an inch.
The others were the same, all sprawled on the ground, panting heavily.
"Come on, everyone, have some water, and some hot buns too! Come and eat!"
After finishing the work, Wang Weigong arrived with the support staff.
The eldest brother's rice bucket was filled with hot steamed buns, and the rising steam carried the aroma of the buns into the air.
Normally, everyone would have already crowded around.
But today, I really don't want to move; I just want to rest for a while.
Even more remarkably, some people started snoring and fell asleep shortly after sitting down.
It's quite chilly on this late autumn night.
If you sleep like that, you'll catch a cold when you wake up.
Wang Weigong had no choice but to call for help to carry him; he couldn't possibly sleep on the platform!
After a while, Shen Zhishou slowly stood up and went to eat the steamed buns.
These palm-sized steamed buns are so small you can eat one in just a few bites.
After eating a few steamed buns and recovering for a while, Shen Zhishou felt his strength returning.
He simply helped Wang Weigong move those brothers who were so tired they fell asleep into the workers' dormitory at the train station.
Although it's a large dormitory-style dormitory, at least there are blankets and bedding, so you won't catch a cold after just one night's sleep.
"Brother Wang, I'll head back now if there's nothing else!"
"I'll have Xiao Zhang take you!"
"No need to trouble yourself. Xiao Zhang has worked hard today; let him rest for a while!"
Because the moving work was so urgent, everyone who could help at the train station was mobilized.
"Alright then, take these buns with you and eat them on the road!"
Wang Weigong had witnessed Shen Zhishou's terrifying appetite before, so he directly stuffed the steamed buns from the bag into Shen Zhishou's hands.
As for extra wages, they will naturally be substantial.
Shen Zhishou waved, picked up his net bag, and slowly left the train station.
Fortunately, it wasn't far away; otherwise, Shen Zhishou really wouldn't want to walk back.
Having lived in this era for so long, this was the first time Shen Zhishou had felt physically exhausted. He had always thought that his body, having been modified, was comparable to that of his ancestors, but it turned out that he was still lacking something.
When Shen Zhishou returned to the courtyard house and knocked on the window of the back room, Yu Li quickly responded.
When Yu Li opened the courtyard gate, she was surprised to see Shen Zhishou looking exhausted.
"Honey, what have you been doing?"
"Let's talk about it when we get home!"
Shen Zhishou waved his hand and called Yu Li back to the house.
Yu Li nodded, closed the courtyard gate, and followed Shen Zhishou back to the back room, quickly pouring him a glass of warm water.
"I've gone to work as a porter at the train station!"
"I've been working on this since this morning!"
"Here, put these buns away!"
Shen Zhishou briefly explained the situation, while Yu Li looked distressed.
She really wanted to say she would never go again, but she also knew that was impossible.
"Honey, can we not go this far next time?"
"I know you're strong, but even the strongest can't withstand this kind of exertion!"
I worked until midnight on my day off, and now, just two days later, I'm doing it again!
Who in their right health could withstand that?
"I'll listen to you!"
Shen Zhishou naturally wouldn't argue with Yu Li about such a matter.
Today's situation is also special.
After all, many of today's supplies are to be transported to the southwest, and Shen Zhishou wanted to do his part, so he was a little more aggressive in his actions.
Looking back now, he could have taken it a little longer.
In the end, there was still a little extra time.
Exhausted, Shen Zhishou didn't even take a shower before crawling into bed and falling asleep.
Saying it makes you fall asleep in a second is a bit of an exaggeration, but it's actually pretty close.
Yu Li hugged Shen Zhishou's waist, pressing her body tightly against her, and finally just sighed.
Early the next morning.
Shen Zhishou woke up to the delicious aroma of meat. Yu Li was already up and cooking in the kitchen; the smell was coming from her cooking.
After stretching, Shen Zhishou felt refreshed and all the fatigue from yesterday was gone.
-
Indeed, sleep is the best way to restore physical strength.
After getting dressed and stretching his body, Shen Zhishou felt as if his body had become stronger again.
He reached out and moved the cabinet in the corner, and sure enough, it felt different.
So, after my body is modified, can I become even stronger?
Shen Zhishou genuinely didn't know this.
After all, before yesterday, he really hadn't pushed his body to its limits.
However, Shen Zhishou had no intention of further developing his body.
It's good enough for now; if we continue developing it, who knows whether it will be a blessing or a curse.
In the kitchen, Yu Li stewed all the meat she had stored at home, intending to give Shen Zhishou a good nourishing meal.
The meat buns are already hot in the pot, and underneath is cooked millet porridge.
In the other pot, there was stewed meat.
"Wife, are you trying to ruin our life?"
Thinking back to how Yu Li had been so worried about the family's financial situation that she had been saving meat, I never imagined that she would stew all the remaining meat today.
A hodgepodge!
Lamb, pork scraps, cured meat, canned meat —
Yu Li glanced at him and said, "I just want to live a normal life!"
Shen Zhishou is the pillar of this family. If Shen Zhishou's health collapses, how will she live her life?
Therefore, it is essential to improve the man's health.
"My dear wife, you're so wonderful!"
Shen Zhishou hugged Yu Li from behind, deeply moved.
Look, this is what a good wife should be like to live a good life.
Well, in this day and age, there are really a lot of good wives like Yu Li.
Shen Zhishou cuddled with Yu Li for a while before brushing his teeth and washing his face.
When he returned after washing up, the food was already cooked and on the table.
A pot of stewed meat, with vermicelli and rice noodles, is incredibly fragrant.
Shen Zhishou thought that if they added some hot pot base, this would be a hot pot meal!
Unfortunately, there was no hot pot base.
As the Shen couple ate their lavish breakfast, the residents of the courtyard were all puzzled. It wasn't a holiday or anything, so why was the Shen family eating like this so early in the morning? Were they not living a normal life?
"Dad, I was busy on patrol all night yesterday, and then I was woken up this morning. Shouldn't we upgrade the food at home?"
Yan Jiecheng looked at Yan Bugui with sleepy eyes.
Yan Bugui glanced at him and said, "You're right!"
Then, Yan Bugui glanced at Yang Ruihua and said, "Starting tomorrow, steam some egg drop soup in the morning for the eldest son to nourish him properly. Health is the foundation of everything!"
"Jiecheng, I'll try to get you a spot in this patrol team. Don't feel like you're losing out!"
"If you perform well, you might catch the eye of the neighborhood watch team, and then you'll have a job!"
"So you really need to do your best!"
"Once you have a job, you'll have a house, and you'll have a wife!"
Yan Bugui immediately started making empty promises to Yan Jiecheng.
But Yan Jiecheng was completely swayed by this!
Since his last matchmaking attempt was ruined by Xu Damao, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Yan Jiecheng had several more matchmaking opportunities, but none of them worked out. Either the women didn't like him because he was unemployed, or Yan Jiecheng thought they weren't pretty enough.
Yan Jiecheng's current situation is somewhat similar to that of Sha Zhu.
They want something beautiful and attractive, but they don't consider their own physical attributes.
All I can say is that they all have a high opinion of themselves.
The crow cannot see its own blackness!
