Just as Ruan Yunxi was drifting off to sleep, a large hand landed on her stomach.
Seeing that she was awake, Gu Weizhou immediately apologized: "Did I wake you up?"
Ruan Yunxi found a comfortable position in his arms: "Sleep!"
Gu Weizhou wisely closed his eyes: "Go to sleep. I'll keep you company. The water's boiled. If you want some, just tell me and I'll make you some brown sugar water."
Ruan Yunxi nodded, her silence indicating she didn't want to drink.
Seeing her sleeping peacefully in his arms, Gu Weizhou placed his large hand on her flat, soft abdomen, warming her cool belly with his large hand.
He had his sweet and soft wife in his arms, and at that moment he had no other thoughts.
I'm just curious why women have menstruation every month, while men don't.
In truth, it's because men are blessed by God that they don't have to menstruate, nor do they have to endure the pain of ten months of pregnancy and childbirth.
Even so, there are still men who shamelessly bully women.
If he finds out, he'll definitely beat the man up.
Anyway, he'll cherish his wife and treat her with utmost care.
Feeling unwell, Ruan Yunxi had little energy. The next day, she ate the brown sugar eggs that Gu Weizhou had cooked for her. The eggs were a bit sweet, and there were three eggs, which she couldn't finish. She could only put them in her spatial storage and wait for him to come back so he could eat them himself.
Gu Weizhou is going to training and won't be home during the day.
He told Sister-in-law Sheng to go and check on things at home.
If Sister-in-law Sheng hadn't told her, Ruan Yunxi wouldn't have known that she had bothered Sister-in-law Sheng last night. He had no shame, Ruan Yunxi felt embarrassed: "This guy is really something. I told him it was nothing serious, and he still bothered Sister-in-law Sheng!"
Sister-in-law Sheng smiled and said, "He's just concerned about you. It's rare to see a man who cares so much. He has you in his heart, so he's thinking about how to take care of you and share your burdens. If he met a man who doesn't care, he wouldn't bother to put in the effort."
Ruan Yunxi thought about it and agreed.
After chatting with Sister-in-law Sheng for a while, Sister-in-law Sheng, worried that she might not be able to cook well on her own, invited her to her home for a meal.
Ruan Yunxi waved her hand: "There's food at home, I can just heat it up. Sister-in-law, don't worry about me, I can take care of myself."
"Okay, if you want to eat some vegetables, go pick them from the garden yourself. I've planted quite a lot, and they're ready to eat now. Eating more vegetables is good for your health. When our cherries are ripe, you can go pick some."
Ruan Yunxi asked in surprise, "There are cherries too?"
Sister-in-law Sheng nodded: "The cherries started bearing fruit last year. They're big and red, as big as a finger. They're delicious, and both of the children love them. If you like, you can plant a few behind the yard in the future."
"Okay!" Ruan Yunxi likes to eat cherries.
I never imagined that cherries could be grown in such a cold place.
After Gu Weizhou returned, Ruan Yunxi told him about the cherries, and Gu Weizhou asked, "Do you like them?"
Ruan Yunxi nodded.
The following afternoon, someone delivered three or four cherry trees: "These were sent from the logistics department. They said they were from somewhere else. They want you to plant them properly. I don't know how, so you have to make sure they survive."
Gu Weizhou nodded in assurance.
Under Ruan Yunxi's supervision, they dug holes and planted cherry trees on the earthen slope behind the yard, which looked quite professional.
Gu Weizhou also asked, "What vegetables do you want to eat? I'll grow them for you."
"Cucumbers, tomatoes, asparagus, lettuce, eggplant, green beans, and bamboo shoots," Ruan Yunxi said. "I want to eat pickled bamboo shoots and pork soup."
Gu Weizhou knew what "Yan Du Xian" (a type of stew) was, but unfortunately there were no bamboo shoots here, so even if he wanted to make it, he couldn't.
For dinner, we had tomato and egg soup, along with wakame seaweed that Sister Sheng had picked up while beachcombing, which we also made into a wakame and bone soup.
