Qin Zichuan and Huo Yan watched the two women whispering to each other.
They chatted like ostriches, so close that they thought they couldn't hear them.
“Your wife is also preparing for the college entrance exam, and so is mine. Next, it will be just the two of us alone in an empty room.” Qin Zichuan looked at his wife and asked Huo Yan if he could persuade her.
"Your wife wants to take the college entrance exam and go to university, so why did you bring her to see my wife? I've almost convinced my wife to give up studying and have children. With your wife here, I guess all my persuasion efforts have been in vain." Huo Yan was a little angry.
He wasn't trying to stop his wife from making progress, it's just that he's almost 30 and doesn't have children yet, so it's better to have one first.
"That's not necessarily true. If you don't sow the seeds diligently enough, your wife won't get pregnant. How can you blame me?" Qin Zichuan disagreed.
He can't plant anything even if he sows seeds every day of the week. Can you blame him?
Huo Yan had no way to express his suffering.
He won't let his wife touch him without using a sachet; this is his unwavering commitment.
The two men looked heartbroken, while the two women chatted and became happier.
When they were about to part ways, they made a promise to meet again the next day, when they would study together for the college entrance examination.
Back home.
"You seemed to be having a good chat with Huo Yan's wife," Qin Zichuan asked Ye Zhaoyu.
"It's alright! Let's go wash up and go to bed!" Ye Zhaoyu pushed Qin Zichuan to wash up.
"Okay, go back and sit down. I'll go get the water to wash your feet." Qin Zichuan pressed her down onto the bed. He knew she would have to work hard later, so he wouldn't bother her now.
Ye Zhaoyu sat obediently on the bed waiting for Qin Zichuan to bring her water to wash her feet. Apart from the disagreement about having children, everything else was going well.
Ye Zhaoyu thought to herself that if she behaved well, she could give birth a year or two earlier.
After Qin Zichuan helped Ye Zhaoyu wash her feet, he used the remaining water to wash his own feet clean. He then fetched a basin of clean water and placed it in the room, and also filled two kettles with hot water.
After washing her feet, Ye Zhaoyu hid under the covers, feeling a little bit of anticipation.
I miss it a little after four nights apart.
As soon as the lights were turned off, some sounds unsuitable for children began to fill the room.
The next day, when Ye Zhaoyu woke up, Qin Zichuan had already gone to work.
Breakfast was placed on the table: a bowl of congee, a fried dough stick, and some pickled vegetables.
After breakfast, Ye Zhaoyu felt refreshed and invigorated.
This is a great thing to do; not only do men feel good, but women also feel refreshed and relaxed.
After eating her fill, Ye Zhaoyu took her documents and went to find Wen Nuan to play.
When she arrived at the warm house, she had just gotten up.
"Why so early? I thought you were going to come in the afternoon." Wen Nuan was still curious when she saw Ye Zhaoyu appear at her door so early. This Commander Qin was not reliable.
"Is it early? No, it's past ten o'clock." Ye Zhaoyu looked at the time; it was definitely not early.
Isn't this your newlywed life?
“Indeed, come in and sit down.” Wen Nuan quickly invited them into the main room to chat.
The warm home also has a sofa with cushions, which shows that she is the kind of person who knows how to enjoy life.
Warmth has many snacks at home, most of which are homemade, such as peach shortbread, pastries, milk candy, and all sorts of other things.
While waiting for her, Ye Zhaoyu tried each one.
After Wen Nuan finished breakfast and came over, she said, "Nuan Nuan, could you spare some of the pastries from your house for me? I'll trade you money for them."
“Sure.” Wen Nuan’s eyes lit up when she heard about the money. It was absolutely wonderful. It was worth all the treats she had given her.
While the two were talking, Ye Zhaoyu almost emptied out all the snacks in Wen Nuan's house. Only after Wen Nuan said she would make more in a few days did she leave a little bit.
After getting their snacks, the two began reviewing their studies.
Seeing that Wen Nuan's review progress was slow and lacked focus, Ye Zhaoyu offered to help her review.
With Ye Zhaoyu's help, Wen Nuan's review progress was significantly faster, and she was able to quickly understand many of the problems she couldn't understand before with Ye Zhaoyu's explanations.
"Little Fish, you are so smart, you are the top student the teacher talks about. You don't know, today's two hours of study is enough for me to study for two days."
Nuan Wen lay sprawled on the sofa, looking at Ye Zhaoyu with envy. Ye Zhaoyu had such a clever mind.
"You're smart too, you just lack learning skills," Ye Zhaoyu praised back.
"I know what kind of person I am. I'm not going back today. I'll treat you to dinner at my house."
“Okay, I’ll give you food coupons.” Ye Zhaoyu’s eyes lit up when she heard about food.
"Alright, we're friends, one more meal won't hurt. Come eat here again next time, and I'll definitely charge you food coupons." Wen Nuan refused.
"Alright!" Ye Zhaoyu didn't push her away, thinking to herself that she would send some of whatever she had at home to Wen Nuan later.
Ye Zhaoyu treats warmth as a friend, so she doesn't care about the meal. She believes that she can return the favor next time, and that a relationship will only be good if there is mutual exchange.
When Qin Zichuan returned from getting lunch, he noticed that Ye Zhaoyu wasn't home, so he went out to look for her. He eventually found her at Huo Yan's house, where she was soaking under the grapevines, preparing to eat lunch.
When they saw Qin Zichuan coming over, they invited him to stay and eat.
For lunch, I made a braised chicken and some seasonal vegetables. I also used the braising liquid at home to braise some lotus root slices and kelp.
"Delicious." Ye Zhaoyu ate with great satisfaction, wondering if Wen Nuan would be willing to partner with her to open a shop after the reform and opening up.
There's still a year left, I'll ask her about it later.
"It's delicious, I'll come again next time." Wen Nuan felt a sense of satisfaction as she watched all the food on the table being eaten clean.
In the afternoon, the two men went to work, while Ye Zhaoyu continued to help Wen Nuan with her studies. She also brought back some braised food for dinner and some snacks to exchange.
