Lu Zhengjun: "..."
He gently patted Su Yueya's shoulder, like he was coaxing a child to sleep.
"Close your eyes and slowly drift off to sleep."
Lu Zhengjun's chin rested on the top of Su Yueya's head, and his deep voice reached her ears.
"I've heard that being born in the Year of the Sheep is auspicious."
Su Yueya started talking to herself, and began to count sheep in Lu Zhengjun's arms.
"One sheep, two sheep, three sheep..."
She counted softly, and Lu Zhengjun, listening to her voice, unconsciously followed the changes in the numbers.
Both of them were trying hard to fall asleep.
However, the reasons why the two need to work hard are different.
Even after counting to over two hundred, Su Yueya still couldn't fall asleep.
"Two hundred and thirty-nine sheep, two hundred..."
"Stop counting," Lu Zhengjun suddenly said.
"Honey, did I wake you up?" Su Yueya tried to peek out from Lu Zhengjun's arms.
Her movement made Lu Zhengjun feel even more uncomfortable.
Not hugging? I can't bear to part with my sweet wife.
Hug me? I can't sleep at all.
And you have to be constantly on guard, not make mistakes, and resist temptations!
"We're not arguing, stop counting, try closing your eyes and clearing your mind..."
As Lu Zhengjun spoke, he gently covered Su Yueya's face with his large hand, obscuring her eyes.
I felt a slight pressure on my eyes, which seemed to really calm me down.
Su Yueya listened to her husband and tried to gradually clear her mind...
Before long, he actually fell asleep.
However, while she was "freed," Lu Zhengjun's "torture" continued.
Su Yueya is a restless sleeper.
But it's really not her fault.
When everyone is asleep, who can control their state of mind?
Su Yueya would rub her cheek and chin against her husband's firm chest, then rub her little feet against his legs, and then her hand would move from Lu Zhengjun's waist to his chest...
In short, it's the same as not sleeping at all.
This was always a huge test for Lu Zhengjun.
Yet he couldn't bear to let go of the person in his arms.
"What does it mean to lift a stone only to drop it on one's own foot..." Lu Zhengjun sighed helplessly.
He himself didn't know exactly when he fell asleep.
She must have been unable to hold on any longer, because her eyelids finally drooped.
And I didn't sleep well, only light sleep.
If Su Yueya turned over even slightly, Lu Zhengjun would wake up for a moment before falling back asleep.
The next day arrived, and Lu Zhengjun woke up with dark circles under her eyes.
"Honey, did you sleep poorly last night?"
Su Yueya was heartbroken.
Her husband's training intensity in the army is so high, and he can't sleep well at night. How can this be okay?
"A little." Lu Zhengjun really couldn't say that she slept well.
Who can have dark circles under their eyes even if they sleep well?
"I don't know why, but it seems to be like this all the time lately."
"Let me think of a way!"
While making breakfast, Su Yueya analyzed the situation in her mind.
The root cause may be poor sleep quality.
Poor sleep quality can be further subdivided into difficulty falling asleep, being easily startled, not sleeping soundly, and having many dreams.
She probably has a direction now.
When Su Yueya was making aphrodisiac and kidney-tonifying soup, she bought a lot of medicinal herbs from a traditional Chinese medicine shop.
However, she is still missing a few ingredients to make the sleep-aiding soup and pills.
After breakfast, Lu Zhengjun went to the military base, and Su Yueya went with him.
"Are you going to buy groceries?"
"No, I still have some at home. I want to go to a traditional Chinese medicine shop."
"Buy medicine?" Lu Zhengjun's gaze swept over Su Yueya, and he felt that she looked quite normal and did not seem to be sick.
Su Yueya guessed what he was thinking and quickly explained.
"I did go to buy medicinal herbs, but it's not because I'm sick. I wanted to try making something to help you sleep. Anyway... just wait and see."
Lu Zhengjun thought to himself that his wife was able to skip grades and get into Wenxiu Medical College with high scores.
A little insomnia is really not enough to stump her.
"Then be careful on the road."
"Okay, I know." Su Yueya, who was happy to be nagged, smiled sweetly and took her husband's arm as they went out.
"The Chinese medicine shop isn't far from home. I promise I'll come right back after I buy it and I definitely won't wander around outside."
Lu Zhengjun wore a doting smile.
Upon arriving at the traditional Chinese medicine shop, Su Yueya immediately pointed out several medicinal herbs.
This time it's not about aphrodisiacs or kidney tonics, so she doesn't need to deliberately mess up the order of the herbs.
Very quick, bought it and left.
Back home, Su Yueya first divided the medicinal herbs into two piles and processed them separately.
For the first batch, she planned to make jujube seed and lily bulb tea to help with sleep.
You can usually put it in a thermos and have Lu Zhengjun take it to the military base to drink, or drink a little before bed.
The second pile is the main event.
Su Yueya needs to make sleep aid pills.
They are tiny Chinese medicine pills that can be directly applied to the navel, making them very convenient.
While soaking the medicinal herbs and simmering jujube seed and lily bulb tea, she continued to process the herbs for the sleep aid pills.
Use the machines in the space to grind all the medicinal herbs into powder, put them into the pill-making machine, and wait.
Lu Zhengjun returned home that evening.
Su Yueya immediately showed him the results of her entire day's work.
"Honey, come here quickly!"
When Lu Zhengjun saw that Su Yueya was holding a bowl of medicine, he stopped in his tracks.
This was a completely subconscious reaction.
He immediately remembered the mutton soup he drank every day after his marriage.
"Crescent moon, what is this?"
Lu Zhengjun's tone was evasive. He already had trouble sleeping, and if he drank this stuff, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep at all.
