The two talked in depth for a while, and He Rongxuan turned the topic to his wife and children, and then began to quietly ask Zhao Xiangyang how he took care of pregnant women.
Although he didn't want to, such a simple question stumped Zhao Xiangyang.
"Rongxuan, to be honest, I don't really understand this question. I'm a rough man, as you know, and we all worked our way up.
I am much older than you. When I was a platoon leader, I was already married and my children were all born in my hometown.
To be honest, I feel guilty towards my wife about this. Every time I go home for a family visit, I only go back for a few days.
Then she faced everything by herself, helping me take care of my parents and raising my children. She must have worked hard over the years!"
"You are so lucky. Since you know that your sister-in-law has a hard time, you should be extra nice to her in the future!"
"Of course, but you ask me this, could it be..."
"Tsk...it's not even three months yet, I can't tell you!"
"Oh... I see, I see. How about this, when my wife comes back, I'll let her talk to you about it. We're all women, so she should know something."
"That's fine, I'll bother you for a while!"
"What are you bothering me about? Let's talk. I'm bored by myself. Their mother went out to buy groceries. I think she'll be back soon!"
"Um!"
After sitting for a while, they heard the laughter of women and children from the door. Although He Rongxuan said that he was not in a hurry, he was still thinking about which of his wives had not woken up from their nap.
As soon as Liu A-mei entered the house, she saw He Rongxuan sitting inside. She looked at her man with inquiring eyes.
When Zhao Xiangyang saw his wife coming back, he naturally stood up immediately, and then took the initiative to introduce her:
"Wife, this is Captain He Rongxuan. He lives next door to us. He just moved in not long ago, just like us."
"Oh, it's Captain He. I've heard of your name for a long time. I heard that your wife is a doctor and has made contributions to the army. She is a role model for us military families to learn from!"
Even though Liu A-mei came from the village, she has a high EQ and is good at talking. Although she has not been here for long, she has found out everything she needs to know about the situation around her.
"Sister-in-law, you are too polite, but my wife is indeed a doctor. I am sorry for disturbing you by coming to her house!"
"What's the big deal? I wish more friends would come to Zhao Xiangyang. He is a straightforward person and doesn't have many friends he can talk to. Seeing you coming here, my sister-in-law is very happy!"
"Wife, what are you talking about? Rongxuan came here to ask you something. Go and tell Rongxuan what pregnant women should pay attention to!"
"Pregnant woman? Could it be..."
"It's not even three months yet, don't make a fuss about it, wife!"
Before He Rongxuan could say anything, Zhao Xiangyang started giving instructions. After he said this, Liu A-mei also understood what he meant.
"Oh, I get it. I won't say anything nonsense. Don't worry, Captain He. But let me tell you, the most important thing in caring for a pregnant woman is to be careful and patient.
When a pregnant woman is pregnant, she is more emotionally sensitive and prone to having wild thoughts. As a husband, you naturally have to give your wife enough sense of security.
Also, many pregnant women will experience pregnancy symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, etc. At this time, as a husband, you should pay more attention to your wife's mood... "
A-mei Liu spoke eloquently for more than twenty minutes. It was a rare occasion for He Rongxuan to listen to a strange woman so patiently. He did all this for his wife!
Having stayed at the Zhao family for quite some time, He Rongxuan estimated that Wen Nuan was about to wake up, so he said goodbye to Zhao Xiangyang and his two children and hurried back home.
Watching He Rongxuan leave, Liu A-mei said with emotion:
"I never thought that Captain He, who has such a cold face, is actually quite nice to his wife!"
"Wife, I will treat you well too. You have worked hard over the years!"
Hearing her man say this out of the blue, Liu A-mei instantly felt jealous.
The voice seemed to be choked.
"Why are you saying these things for no reason? We are just an old married couple!"
"No matter how old we are, you are still the one I love the most, daughter-in-law. I am sincere. You have worked so hard in the past!"
Seeing her husband's earnest eyes, Liu A-mei was deeply moved. She knew that all her efforts over the years had not gone unrewarded.
At least, her man really loves her, that's enough!
In the bedroom, He Rongxuan just walked in and saw Wen Nuan sitting up from the bed.
"Rongxuan, where have you been?"
Wen Nuan had just woken up, and her voice was a little muffled, sounding like a little kitten acting coquettishly.
He Rongxuan walked quickly to the bed.
"I went to the next door and talked to Captain Zhao. I'm back now. How are you? Are you feeling well? Are you hungry?"
Wen Nuan shook her head and leaned on He Rongxuan's shoulder. She hadn't fully come to her senses yet and her eyes were closed again.
"I'm not hungry, I just suddenly want to eat chestnuts. I want to eat freshly fried sugar-roasted chestnuts!"
"Then I'll go buy it for you, you wait at home!"
Wen Nuan hugged He Rongxuan's waist tightly, it was very cold outside, and there was no sugar-roasted chestnuts for sale nearby. If one wanted to buy that stuff, they had to drive at least two hours to Zhaoxian County.
"It's so cold, don't bother yourself, I didn't say that!"
"I'll drive there. It won't take long!"
"I don't want you to go either. Stop bothering me. Besides, I don't want to be alone at home!"
"Okay, I'll stay home with you! If there are no chestnuts, I remember there are sweet potatoes in the kitchen. Can I bake some for you?"
Speaking of roasted sweet potatoes, Wen Nuan swallowed the water unconsciously.
"It seems like baked sweet potatoes would work too! I want some!"
Seeing his wife's loving look, He Rongxuan's heart softened and he ruffled her messy hair.
"Okay, since I want to eat it, I'll bake it for you, okay?"
"good!"
After watching Wen Nuan put on her clothes and sit on the sofa, He Rongxuan turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare to bake sweet potatoes.
Although they didn't have roasted sweet potatoes at the moment, He Rongxuan remembered his wife's desire to eat sugar-roasted chestnuts.
After a busy period, although the appearance of the food was not satisfactory, Wen Nuan still managed to eat the roasted sweet potatoes and the red date millet porridge specially cooked by Congratulations Rongxuan.
