Xiao Yuheng smiled faintly but did not answer the other party's question.

He didn't say anything, but the other group of kids started to jeer.

"Of course! If I could marry a smart, beautiful, and capable wife like the deputy regimental commander, I would dream about it every day."

"Don't even think about it! You're still single, who knows when you'll find a wife."

"Deputy Regiment Commander Xiao, does your wife have a younger sister? If so, could you introduce her to us?"

As soon as he said this, Xiao Yuheng received countless expectant gazes.

They're all grown men, and none of them don't want to get married.

“Your sister-in-law has only been here for a short time, how could she know so many people? Instead of asking me, you should ask Sister Zhang and Sister Zhou. They know more people, and maybe there will be an opportunity.”

Although he sympathized with these bachelors, Xiao Yuheng would never give his wife anything to do; her pregnancy was tiring enough.

Everyone agreed that this made sense; the deputy regimental commander's wife was pregnant and couldn't go out much, so she only knew the women in the family compound.

"Brother Liu (Little Liu) is really lucky!"

Someone sighed, but it was just a sigh, without any complaints. After all, there was only one girl, but a whole bunch of boys. It was just that Xiao Liu was too cunning, trying to make a good impression on the deputy regimental commander and his wife early on.

"Deputy Regiment Commander, how did you and your wife meet?"

Whether male or female, they're all gossipy, especially when they're bored like this. It reminded Xiao Yuheng of their first meeting, but he didn't want to share such a wonderful thing with these brats around him.

"Aren't you tired? Go and rest."

But perhaps because they got a good ranking, or perhaps because Xiao Yuheng couldn't punish them while they were in the car, the brats weren't satisfied.

"Tell us about it! So we can learn from it."

"Yes! We just want to learn from their experience, otherwise it would be a waste if we missed the opportunity in the future."

Unable to handle their commotion, Xiao Yuheng picked and chose what to say.

"Deputy Regiment Commander, was it you who pursued your wife, or did she pursue you?"

Xiao Yuheng said matter-of-factly, "Then it must be me who pursued her."

He was also glad he took the initiative back then; otherwise, given An'an's personality, he would definitely still be a bachelor now.

Thinking of Gu An'an's state when he left, Xiao Yuheng felt uncontrollably worried and nervous, and also hoped that the journey home could be shorter and faster.

The journey took three days, and by the time the group returned to the military region, it was already late at night.

After getting off the bus, Xiao Yuheng picked up his luggage and headed home.

A gust of wind blew by, and the smell of his comrade's sweat wafted into his nose, causing him to stop in his tracks.

He raised his arm and smelled himself. Although he didn't smell as bad as the others, he wasn't much better.

Thinking of his wife at home, he immediately changed direction.

"Where are you going, Deputy Regiment Commander?" The family compound isn't in that direction.

"bath."

After taking a quick shower, Xiao Yuheng took a deep sniff until he smelled only soap on his body. Satisfied, he nodded and hurried home as fast as he could.

At one o'clock in the morning, the family compound was completely silent.

Xiao Yuheng tiptoed into the room, his heart pounding faster the closer he got to the door.

Xiao Yuheng carefully pushed open the door. He didn't dare turn on the light, but fortunately, he had good eyesight and could still clearly see the raised blanket and the little person huddled inside by the moonlight.

Only at this moment did his heart truly calm down.

Step by step, Xiao Yuheng approached the bed and gently sat on the edge, reaching out to stroke Gu An'an's face.

It was only then that Gu An'an was awakened, but she relaxed again after smelling the familiar scent.

Gu An'an really despised herself. She had only been back for a little over a year, and she had already lost her vigilance. If this had happened in the apocalypse, she would have died eight times over.

Fortunately, she is now in the 1970s, and fortunately, she is surrounded only by people who love her and not by zombies.

"You're back."

Xiao Yuheng didn't expect her to wake up so quickly. "Yes, you can continue sleeping."

Gu An'an took his hand and said, "Come up here too."

Having not had a warm embrace for so long, Gu An'an naturally missed it very much.

"Okay, wait a moment."

After unloading the extra things, Xiao Yuheng quietly got into bed, intending to reach out and pull Gu An'an into his arms as before, but he froze instantly when he felt Gu An'an's big belly.

"You...this...baby..."

Xiao Yuheng remembered that Gu An'an's belly was just starting to show when he left. How could it be so big now, so short a time?

Gu An'an deliberately nudged him with her belly, so she knew exactly why he was reacting that way. She smiled slightly and asked, "Is it big?"

Xiao Yuheng wanted to turn on the light to take a look, but was afraid that making too much movement would bump into Gu An'an. "Hmm, how come it's so big? Are you very tired right now?"

It's obvious that with her belly suddenly getting so big, she would definitely feel a downward pull. Let alone walking or moving around, even sleeping would be tiring. No wonder he noticed that her sleeping posture had changed a lot.

Perhaps it was because her husband was back, but Gu An'an had become more delicate. "Yeah, I am a little tired."

Xiao Yuheng couldn't resist getting up and turning on the light. When he saw how big the belly was, he was completely stunned.

"This...this is about the same size as a woman's belly when she's about to give birth."

Although he had been in the military, he had seen the pregnant women in the family compound. If he remembered correctly, their bellies were about this big, and some of them weren't even this big when they were about to give birth.

"Hmm~"

Gu An'an gently stroked her belly, "Because there are two babies inside, it will be bigger than usual."
