Tao Zhi didn’t know how to cook, and he had never learned how to cook. Firstly, he didn’t have the time to learn, and secondly, he didn’t need to learn how to cook. After all, some aunties cooked at home. Even if there was no cook, he could call someone to send food over.
“This is what I should do,” Zhuang Liu said proudly.
Tan Rou saw Zhuang Liu’s expression and could not help but laugh.
Zhuang Liu turned to look at her and placed the peeled prawns into her bowl. “This prawn is boiled in plain water. It’s sweet and delicious. You can have a few more.”
The doctor only told Tan Rou not to eat raw seafood. He didn’t say that she couldn’t eat cooked prawns. Plus, they were steamed prawns, so Zhuang Liu peeled a few more prawns for Tan Rou.
Tan Rou ate very slowly. She had to eat a small prawn in three portions while waiting for the porridge to be served.
Mrs. Tao was very happy. She kept praising Zhuang Liu and forgot about her son.
Tan Rou couldn’t stand it anymore. She reminded her, “Mom, my brother is also very outstanding. Don’t forget him!”
Mother Tao was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled. “Oh my. My son-in- law is too outstanding. I almost forgot about my son.”
Tian Tian’s mother did not want her son-in-law to lose to Mother Tao’s son- in-law, so she also praised her son-in-law with all her might. Seeing that the praise competition was getting more and more lively, the elders of the Tian family and the Tao family could not help but interrupt them. “Alright, it’s not up to you to decide whether a son-in-law is good or not. It’s still up to your daughter to determine that.”
“They’re both very outstanding!” Tian Tian and Tan Rou said at the same time. Then, they looked at each other and smiled.
After the meal, the Tian family returned home. Tao Zhi and Tian Tian went to the new house arranged by the Tian family, while the Tao family returned to the residence of the Elegant Jade Water Residence.
Tan Rou followed Zhuang Liu home. Since they were already married, the Tao family would not object to them living together.
As soon as they entered, Zhuang Liu went to pick Tan Rou up. This shocked Tan Rou and she subconsciously hugged Zhuang Liu’s neck.
“What are you doing? Why did you suddenly pick me up?” Tan Rou rebuked.
Zhuang Liu said nervously, “You haven’t fully recovered yet. You shouldn’t walk so much.:
Tan Rou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I’ve already walked so far. This bit of distance wouldn’t make a difference.”
Zhuang Liu did not agree. He insisted on carrying Tan Rou to her room.” Before you recover, I won’t let you walk.”
Tan Rou was very touched. She hugged Zhuang Liu’s neck tightly and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble you for the next few days.”
That night, Tan Rou’s period arrived as scheduled. The pain of acute intestine inflammation and the pain of her period mixed, caused Tan Rou’s face to turn pale. It was said that a doctor could not treat himself. Although Tan Rou was a doctor, she could not treat herself. Once she fell sick, she would also have to seek help from another doctor.
With Zhuang Liu’s status, he did not need to bring Tan Rou to the doctor at all. He could just call a private doctor to his house. Although he had always lived in the capital, he would sometimes come here to deal with the branch company’s matters. He still had to arrange for a private doctor. Moreover, the Zhuang Corporation had invested in private hospitals. It was very easy to call a few private doctors over.
Tan Rou’s medicine was left in the Capital. She really did not expect to fall sick. Sickness came like a mountain. She had no way to get medicine for herself.
She was lying on the bed and was in a lot of pain. Suddenly, she felt a pair of hands gently pressing on her stomach. The hands were very warm and massaged her stomach very comfortably.
Tan Rou opened her eyes slightly and saw Zhuang Liu massaging her stomach. She was very touched. “Ah Liu, thank you.”
Zhuang Liu wished he could lie there for Tan Rou. These simple gestures were nothing.
“Xiao Rou, I wish I was the one in pain.” Zhuang Liu said with a pained expression.
“If you lie here, my heart will ache too,” Tan Rou objected.
In short, the other party would be very distressed if either of them were to lie on the bed.
After pressing for a while, Zhuang Liu removed one hand and placed it on the hot towel. When his hand was warm, he placed it on Tan Rou’s stomach. Zhuang Liu was using such a method to keep his hands warm.
A warm current flowed from Zhuang Liu’s hand to Tan Rou’s stomach. Tan Rou felt that her stomach was much more comfortable. It seemed that Zhuang Liu’s massage was really useful.
