"..." On the first day of the Lunar New Year, when it was still dark outside, Su He was awakened by the crackling sound of firecrackers. She drowsily put her arms around the man's strong waist and buried her head in his strong chest, feeling completely safe.

"I have to get up and go to pay New Year's greetings later." Lu Yunzhou's deep and magnetic voice came from above his head. Su He said "hmm" softly, "Okay, got it. Hold me for a while~"

Lu Yunzhou gently stroked her back with his big hand, and said with a smile, "You don't have to get up to pay New Year's greetings. You can continue to sleep."

"You go and wish them a happy new year. Someone will definitely come to our house to wish them a happy new year later. They will laugh at me if they find out that I am still in the house!" Su He didn't want to become a laughing stock of the entire military region on the first day of the new year.

"No," Lu Yunzhou lowered his head and kissed her forehead, coaxing her softly, "You are pregnant now, no one will laugh at you."

"There are firecrackers going off outside all the time, and I can't sleep either." Su He said in a muffled voice, "I've been lying in bed for more than ten hours a day. My bones ache all over. I might as well get up and move around."

"Okay." Lu Yunzhou sat up slowly and tucked the quilt tightly around Su He. "Whatever you want, I'll be back right after paying my New Year's greetings."

As soon as the man stood up and left, he felt the temperature in the bed drop immediately!

Su He didn't like lying down by herself, so she got up not long after Lu Yunzhou left!

As soon as she opened the door, she saw her mother-in-law busy making dumplings. Su He called out, "Mom, Happy New Year! I wish you a happy new year!"

"No need! No need! You're pregnant now, so you don't need to wish me a happy new year. Just this token of your gratitude is enough." Niu Chunhua quickly ran over and pulled her beloved daughter-in-law to sit down, stuffing a red envelope into her hand. "Here! This is your New Year's money."

A red envelope is actually money wrapped in red paper.

Su He remembered that the last time she received New Year's money was when she was very young. She didn't expect that she could still receive New Year's money after getting married. Her mother-in-law prepared double the amount for her.

"Mom, I only need one."

"You're pregnant with my grandson! Of course this is for both of you." Niu Chunhua said cheerfully, "It's not much money, just for fun."

"Thank you, Mom." Su He put it away and sat down to watch her mother-in-law make dumplings. She knew she was a good worker. She made dumplings very quickly! With a quick pinch of her hands, she made a big round dumpling.

"If you're hungry, just tell me and I'll cook dumplings for you." It was still early. Usually, breakfast was around eight or nine o'clock. I wondered if Su He was hungry.

"Let's cook it later when Yunzhou comes back." She didn't feel hungry yet. Just as Su He finished speaking, the man came back! He started taking off his clothes as soon as he entered the door to avoid the cold air on his clothes from chilling Su He.

"You're back so soon?" Su He saw that he had been out for only about ten minutes.

"Well, I'll be back after paying New Year's greetings." Lu Yunzhou nodded slightly, turned around and went into the house to take out peanuts and melon seeds for Su He to eat, and poured a full cup of brown sugar water, taking good care of him.

Niu Chunhua was quite satisfied.

As a man, you should be so careful.

If you can't help your wife bear the hardship of childbirth, you have to take care of her more.

"Mom, is the third child going to take the college entrance examination soon?"

The third child Lu Yunzhou mentioned is his younger brother. His parents-in-law have three children in total: the eldest Lu Yunzhou, the second Lu Yunye, and the third Lu Yunji who is still in school.

Su He remembered that in the original book, Uncle Lu Yunji was a brilliant student! He was the top scorer in the college entrance exam, and he studied orthopedics in college. His grades and clinical performance were both excellent. At a young age, he joined Beijing First People's Hospital as an orthopedic surgeon and later achieved considerable success in his field. However, even for such a "child from another family," his later years were particularly sad. Perhaps it was due to excessive work pressure or some other reason? He eventually chose suicide.

While Su He was lost in thought, Niu Chunhua waved her hand impatiently, "Of the three children in the family, you're the least worrying. The second child just got in trouble, claiming to have broken a classmate's head, and the third child is throwing a tantrum and saying he won't go to school! He was the first child in our village to be admitted to a key high school. Wouldn't it make the villagers laugh if he just refused to go? But he got a beating from your dad, and he went back to school obediently! He did well in the final exam this time, and got first place."

Lu Yunzhou frowned and said nothing.

The second child goes to a technical secondary school and his grades are average.

The third child has excellent academic performance!

Su He hesitated for a moment, "Mom, it's hard to explain why he suddenly became so angry. He must have his own ideas. Didn't you ask him what he thought?"

"As parents, we always consider what he thinks. Why doesn't he think from his parents' perspective?" Niu Chunhua said angrily, "Our family sold everything they had to send him to school. Even if it means losing his head, he has to go!"

"Mom, don't be angry first." Su He didn't know the specific situation and couldn't persuade her.

"I'm not angry." Niu Chunhua smiled and said, "Isn't it scary?"

Su He shook his head, not scared.

Lu Yunzhou was silent for a while, "I'll call home later and have a good chat with him."

"Yeah." Niu Chunhua didn't say anything else. In fact, it doesn't matter whether she calls or not. If she doesn't listen, she will be beaten!

After beating him up, isn't it time to go to school?!

Su He's eyes darkened.

My mother-in-law is a very nice person, Yunzhou is a very nice person, and I think my two brothers-in-law will not be bad either.

They are a family now. Since Su He knows what happened to Yun Ji, he will never let him make the same mistake again.

"..." Before going to bed at night, Su He mentioned his brother-in-law again.

"The academic pressure in high school is enormous. We can't even begin to understand the pressure Yunji is under right now."

"Yunzhou, you'd better have a good chat with him and find out what he really thinks."

"In fact, there is more to life than just going to school. There are many professions, and there are top talents in every field."

Lu Yunzhou nodded in a low voice, "I'll find out, don't worry."

Su He finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing him say this.

Just ask clearly.

At least it's getting attention now.

Thinking of this, Su He suddenly felt the change in the man clearly, and looked at him with a flushed face.

"you?"

"Wife~" Lu Yunzhou's voice immediately fell silent, "Can you help me?"

"I, can't," Su He said nervously, "I'm still in the early stages of pregnancy, so it's strictly forbidden! If it's the second trimester..."

Lu Yunzhou quickly grasped the key point, "You, last time you said you couldn't do it for even a year..."

"Okay." Su He bit her lip, a little embarrassed. "I said that, of course, to calm you down and prepare yourself mentally."

Lu Yunzhou opened his mouth and bit the little woman's neck, "..."

It doesn't hurt, but it's too ambiguous.

Su He felt as if there was a small electric current running around his neck. "Wait a moment."

Lu Yunzhou said "Hmm?" and looked up at Su He again with eyes full of love.

"I can't help you, but I have a plan!"

"What method?"

Su He curled his lips and said, "Close your eyes first!"

Lu Yunzhou cooperated and closed his eyes.

"alright!"
