"Take care of yourself and get plenty of rest these next few days, and don't do that."
"Also, eat less nourishing foods, especially brown sugar, which promotes blood circulation."
"If your period doesn't come in a week, don't worry. Just bring her for a check-up at the end of the month."
"And another important point is that your wife is in such good health that even if she gets pregnant, there won't be any problems."
"Don't overreact, or you'll upset her."
Perhaps the doctor's words had an effect, because after returning from the military hospital, Huo Tingzhou saw Jiang Si working intently in the study and did not disturb her.
Instead, they took even better care of her daily life.
He didn't bother her again that night.
The two of them simply covered themselves with a blanket and slept, giving her plenty of time to rest.
After two days of work, Jiang Si finally finished all the preliminary preparations for the mural.
Knowing that he would officially join the crew the next day, Huo Tingzhou packed up their things that afternoon.
The square is closer to the old house, so it would be more convenient to move back there.
Jiang Si had no objection to this.
Before leaving, Huo Tingzhou went to the army canteen and found the quartermaster.
Although Jiang Si didn't say it explicitly, he could tell that his wife really liked the cat.
Sure enough, after seeing Huo Tingzhou bring the calico cat back...
Jiang Si said she was disgusted, but on the way back, she held on the shoulder the whole time!
Seeing their affectionate manner, Huo Tingzhou felt a little regretful.
His wife had never hugged him like that before.
Jiang Si was unaware of his ulterior motives. Taking advantage of the early hour, she went to the Beijing Cotton Mill in the eastern suburbs again in the afternoon.
There were many women in the cotton mill, and Jiang Si found all the facial features she needed to draw in less than two hours.
With this, all the preliminary preparations for the Five Senses Database have been completed.
In addition, Jiang Si has come up with a new idea regarding the layout of the facial features database model in the past two days.
However, I heard that Uncle Huo is currently away on a business trip, so we'll have to wait until he returns to discuss this further with him.
When I got home, I saw Huo's mother right at the entrance of the family compound.
Mrs. Huo was taken aback; she had only said it casually that day.
The newlyweds just wanted to go out and enjoy some time alone; how could she possibly break them up?
In the end, it all comes down to how much he cares for his daughter-in-law.
Soldiers are all rough around the edges, especially during... you know...
To everyone's surprise, the two actually came back, and stayed for less than five days.
Mrs. Huo was a little embarrassed.
"Sisi, why don't you stay there a few more days?"
Jiang Si smiled and opened the car door. "Mom, I have work tomorrow, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get up in the morning."
Do you have a job?
Before he could even ask a question, his attention was completely drawn to the calico cat in Jiang Si's arms.
"Huh, where did this cat come from?"
After saying that, he patted its head.
Jiang Si gave a brief explanation, but she didn't mention the part about how she was so frightened by the rat that her soul left her body.
The two walked and talked, neither paying attention to Huo Tingzhou behind them.
By the time he returned to the living room with his bags and suitcases, everyone already knew that Jiang Si had taken on the New Year's Day themed mural project.
The old man was all smiles, thinking about what would happen once his granddaughter-in-law finished painting the mural.
He'll have to show off to his old buddies then.
The women in the Huo family were even more direct: the painting wasn't even finished yet.
The group had already made a pact that on the day the mural was completed, they would go to the square to take more photos in front of it to keep as a memento for the future.
As for Mr. Huo, he was leading his eldest sons in the kitchen, busy preparing dinner for the day.
The family enjoyed a pleasant dinner together.
Halfway through the meal, it started snowing heavily outside.
The snow fell all night long.
When I woke up the next day, everything outside was already covered in white.
With each step, the snowflakes crunched and crunched.
This was incredibly appealing to Jiang Si, who grew up in the south and had never seen real snowflakes.
The heavy snowfall caused some trouble for Jiang Si's travel.
Fortunately, there was a shortcut through the alley from the old house, and after more than ten minutes, Huo Tingzhou brought Jiang Si to the meeting point near the square.
From a distance, you can see a group of people gathered around a tall building.
Seeing everyone looking up as if facing a formidable enemy, Jiang Si's heart skipped a beat.
Before she could even figure out what was going on, the staff had already started shouting through a megaphone.
"Members of the large mural team, please assemble here upon hearing this notice—"
The author says: It's that most painful day of the month again. Every year on this day, the pain is so bad that I can't even straighten my back.
I took a day off today, but I still updated one chapter to keep up with the continuous updates.
Also, if you like watching short dramas, you can check out Hongguo. The short dramas officially launched this afternoon.
If you're interested, you can take a look. There are several versions available, and I'll be updating as usual tonight.
