"Alright, Mom and Dad are indeed getting older.
I've got water ready for you, go take a bath and sleep early."
Zhao Qingxiang was truly exhausted. After a hot shower, he felt completely relaxed, and as soon as his head touched the pillow, he fell asleep in less than a minute.
The next morning, Sun Yun couldn't bring herself to wake up her husband. He was too tired, so she let him sleep a bit longer.
This time, Zhao Qingxiang slept until past nine. He was really worn out.
When he got up, he felt sore all over. His head was buzzing, and he felt weak.
He called out, but there was no response from his wife. Feeling very hungry, he headed straight to the big pot, where he found some egg custard and pancakes.
He devoured the food voraciously, and only after he was full did he feel much better.
He no longer felt lightheaded as he walked. It was already half-past six, and he went out of the courtyard, seeing his wife peeling corn cobs outside.
