Why do you sleep in separate rooms?
Because the two of them are married by agreement, they are not real couples at all.
But can this be said to the children? That must be impossible.
Seeing their puzzled expressions and strange eyes, Qin Shi smiled slightly.
Lu Zetian's eyes followed Qin Shi closely, he wanted to know what she would say, and there was a trace of anticipation in his heart.
"Everyone needs their own private space, and couples don't have to sleep together."
An An nodded, "Oh~"
Pingping blinked, still feeling very strange, "But you slept together at grandma's house, why did it change when you came back?"
Qin Shi: "Before we went back to grandma's house, didn't we sleep separately? Grandma's house doesn't have many rooms, so we can only squeeze each other to sleep. In fact, your dad and I prefer to sleep in separate rooms."
"When you grow up, you will also like to sleep in a room alone. People always have their own private space."
Lu Zetian was expressionless, and no one could see what was going on in his heart.
Although Pingping is smart, he is still young and doesn't know what a real couple is like, and he has never met other people's parents, so he was confused by Qin Shi's serious explanation.
"That's right." Pingping looked at Lu Zetian and asked, "Father?"
Lu Zetian pursed his lips lightly and nodded slightly.
"Okay, I've finished looking at the rooms. It's time to pick up the briquettes from Grandma Zhao's house. Does anyone want to go with me?" Seeing that Gu Qinghai opened his mouth to say something, Qin Shi immediately spoke first and changed the subject.
"Me, me, me! I'm going!" An An was already thinking about coal briquettes.
Ping Ping also regained his energy. It’s been a long time since we saw each other. He really misses coal balls, “I’ll go too!”
"Then let's go." Qin Shi walked out of the room quickly, holding one in each hand.
Gu Qinghai looked at Qin Shi's back, and suddenly said, "I'm not a child."
"En." Lu Zetian responded.
Seeing that Lu Zetian didn't respond, Gu Qinghai asked clearly: "I'm not as easy to deceive as Ping An'an, Dad, why don't you and Mom sleep in the same room?"
Lu Zetian didn't answer, he thought to himself that I would like to share a room with her, but the current situation doesn't allow it.
Lu Zetian could also lie to Gu Qinghai, but he really didn't want to talk nonsense, so he didn't answer this question, he just said: "School will start soon, please check your homework."
Gu Qinghai became unhappy, "Why didn't you answer me?"
"In a normal family, your parents sleep together. Why do you sleep separately? Did you quarrel?" Gu Qinghai was puzzled, "But you have always slept separately before, and you only slept together when you went to grandma's house." ..."
"Are you pretending to be at grandma's house? Are you afraid that grandma will find out that you have quarreled?"
After Gu Qinghai asked, he stretched out his hand and scratched his head, "But your relationship is the same as usual, it's not like arguing, why..."
Lu Zetian interrupted the distressed Gu Qinghai: "What are the children thinking so much about? We didn't quarrel, so you can rest assured."
Gu Qinghai didn't believe it, "Then why do you sleep in separate rooms?"
Lu Zetian: "Your mother likes it."
Gu Qinghai keenly discovered the key point: "You don't like it?"
Lu Zetian: "..."
It's no wonder that Lu Zetian likes it! But he hasn't caught up with Qin Shi yet, so what's the use of liking him? And even if he catches up with her, if she doesn't want to sleep in the same room with him, he has to respect her, right?
"You will know when you grow up." Lu Zetian couldn't explain, so he could only leave this sentence, and then left, "I'm going to the cafeteria to get dinner, and your mother will tell her when she comes back."
Gu Qinghai watched him stride away, with a tangled and frantic look on his face, "Grow up, when will I grow up?"
"Children have no human rights, so they don't say anything."
Gu Qinghai muttered angrily, "Annoying!"
Not long after, Qin Shi came back with a black cat that had obviously grown a lot.
Gu Qinghai was a little surprised why the briquettes had suddenly grown so big, he stopped paying attention after taking a second look, and focused on Qin Shi.
He was still wondering why they slept in the same room.
Qin Shi naturally felt Gu Qinghai's gaze, and it was impossible for her to tell the truth, so she could only pretend not to see it.
After eating, the twins started to feel sleepy after playing for a while, and then went to sleep on the double bed together.
Gu Qinghai was also a little sleepy, but he didn't sleep. Instead, he seized the opportunity to come to Qin Shi who was alone, and asked, "Mom, why don't you and Dad sleep in the same room?"
Qin Shi, who took out things from the big box and tidied up the trivial sundries, sighed in her heart, she didn't expect Gu Qinghai to be so persistent.
"Why do you care so much about this question?" Qin Shi asked him.
Gu Qinghai replied: "Because normal couples sleep in the same room, it always feels like you are sleeping separately... It's weird, it's not like this in other houses."
Qin Shi bent down to take out the bag from the big box, took out the contents, then looked at Gu Qinghai, and said, "Why should we care about others? We are living our own lives, there is no need to compare with others. "
Gu Qinghai was slightly taken aback, a little unaware that Qin Shi would say that.
"Don't care too much about what other people think, the most important thing is to be yourself and be yourself."
"As for others, whatever they do, don't let them affect you."
Gu Qinghai was fed a lot of life principles, his eyes were a little confused, half understanding. It seems that I understand it, but it seems that I don’t understand it completely, which is a bit esoteric.
"Don't think so much, go take a nap and feel your new bed," Qin Shi looked at him with a smile: "Wake up and help me with the work, let's clean up the house thoroughly."
Gu Qinghai nodded subconsciously, and returned to his room obediently, his mind was still full of what Qin Shi just said on the way.
After arriving in the room, Gu Qinghai suddenly realized when he saw the two baby pigs lying awake on the lower berth. Qin Shi actually didn't answer him why.
Gu Qinghai turned around, looked at Qin Shi through the gap in the door, saw that she was arranging the drawings in the books, hesitated for a while but did not go out to disturb her again.
Gu Qinghai reached out and closed the door, sighed and walked to the bed, he covered the twins with a quilt, and climbed onto the second bed.
Gu Qinghai closed his eyes after looking at the clean ceiling and brand new light bulbs.
Although he didn't know what was going on between Qin Shi and Lu Zetian, they usually had a good relationship and treated him and the twins very well, just like normal parents.
It seemed like there was nothing wrong with it other than not sleeping in a room.
Gu Qinghai thought carefully about how his classmates, friends, and neighbors got along with their parents, and found that Qin Shi and Lu Zetian's way of getting along with each other was more loving, tacit, and compatible than theirs, so he stopped worrying about it for the time being.
Let him take his time, and he will always find the answer.
After thinking about it, drowsiness struck, and Gu Qinghai quickly fell into sleep.
Qin Shi heard that there was no movement for a long time, and then he was relieved. This kid is very sensitive, so he passed by. Fortunately, the future generations are in the era of information explosion, and she reads a lot of chicken soup and messy truths.
In the afternoon, Lu Zetian, who went to the army to sell false reports, came back, helped Qin Shi clean up the house, and enjoyed the last half-day vacation.
In the evening, they cleaned up the house thoroughly.
The children were very excited when they saw the big change, the bright and dignified home, with simple but novel decoration style. Twins yelled even more, this is better than the home in TV dramas and movies.
Lu Zetian and Qin Shi are also very satisfied. The walls are all white, the tables and cabinets are all light yellow, and the curtains, sofa covers, and tablecloths are all in the same color system, which makes people feel very comfortable.
The small vase on the table, the homemade cute cushion on the sofa, the briquette blanket in the corner, the row of upside-down cups placed from high to low on the cabinet... and so on, some small details make the home look Warm up.
The children are playing with the briquettes on the sofa, touching and kissing, smoothing their hair, they are so cute.
Qin Shi felt happy when she saw these cute creatures.
Both human cubs and cat cubs are so cute, and now they are even cuter. Qin Shi couldn't help her aunt laughing when she saw it.
After a while, Qin Shi looked away, and she accidentally glanced at Lu Zetian, and found that Lu Zetian was looking at her intently, and she couldn't help but pause.
But soon, she returned to normal, picked up the newspaper and flipped through it casually.
Qin Shi pretended not to see it, and Lu Zetian did the same, he could only helplessly pick up the fruit on the table and slowly peel it.
"Let's take a day off tomorrow. I'll go shopping in the morning the day after tomorrow, and I'll call people over for dinner in the evening." Qin Shi asked without raising her eyes: "Maybe who and how many people are going to be invited, please make a decision quickly, I'll be ready. "
Lu Zetian: "Maybe we have to invite two tables, one table of my good friends and brothers, and one table of friends who helped out this time."
Only then did Qin Shi look away from the newspaper, she looked up at Lu Zetian, and asked, "One time? Or separate?"
Lu Zetian thought for a while, and said, "Once, or you will be tired twice."
Qin Shi raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked: "Your brothers are not low-ranking, are you sure you can do it together?"
"It's okay, just invite Xiaohu and the others for help, and two team leaders for decoration, and help me with materials." Lu Zetian explained, "They will be happy if you invite them once."
Qin Shi smiled knowingly, "Yes."
"Aunt Zhao and Political Commissar Zheng must be invited. Where's Mr. Li? I've approved you for such a long leave this time, and I even helped you get a soft bed ticket." Qin Shi asked Lu Zetian with her eyes.
Lu Zetian: "Commissioner Zheng is sure of it. Let's forget about Mr. Li. I will trouble you to make another cream cake at the end of the month. Mr. Li's birthday is coming."
Qin Shi nodded, "Okay, is it too little to just give a cake?"
Lu Zetian explained: "It's not easy to give anything else. He hates other people giving him more expensive things. This is it."
Qin Shi thought that cream cakes are also scarce and high-end products here, and they will not drop in price at all, so she nodded.
Lu Zetian handed the peeled apple to Qin Shi, Qin Shi took a bite, and An An ran over, hung it on Lu Zetian's lap, and shouted that she would eat it too.
Lu Zetian took another one, and peeled it quickly, completely different from the slow one just now, but the apple peel agreed that it didn't break at all.
"Wow~" Ping Ping also came over, and An An stared intently at the teetering, but he insisted on not falling off the skin.
Gu Qinghai also walked over, picked up the apple peel on the table very naturally, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"I want it too!" An An stretched out her hand, and Gu Qinghai gave her half.
Pingping didn't say a word, he liked apple flesh more than apple skin.
Qin Shi gnawed on the apple in her hand, leaned on the sofa and looked at them, her body movements were very relaxed.
The author has something to say:
Gu Qinghai (crazy): Why? why why?
Lu Zetian (indifferent): Don't ask me, I also want to know why.
Qin Shi (Gao Renlian): Don't ask, I'll give you philosophy if you ask!
